"I'm just trying to become stronger!"

Watching Ye Qiu's back, Zhu Zhuqing lowered her head and whispered.

Sitting with her legs crossed, hugging her knees, she stared at the endless stone platform in front of her, her thoughts drifting away.

'Sister! I might be able to beat you now! And end that ridiculous engagement contract with Dai Mubai.'

Thinking about the engagement, Ye Qiu's figure suddenly flashed in her mind.

For more than half a month, she had been taken care of meticulously by Ye Qiu, but she could clearly feel an invisible distance he kept, maybe... it was something she caused herself!

Replaying in her mind Ye Qiu's actions when he healed her and saved her. Even the unexpected kiss didn't seem to bother her much.

Burying her reddening face in her knees, 'What should I do?'

Lost in her solitary thoughts, she suddenly felt a warmth.

Ye Qiu returned, standing beside her, and there was now an additional blanket on her.

"If there's anything, let's think about it tomorrow. It's better to rest now, to avoid leaving any roots for illness. Otherwise, I'll feel guilty!" Ye Qiu said.

"Thank you! What are you doing?" She clenched her fists and kept hitting Ye Qiu's chest.

Unperturbed, Ye Qiu lifted her up, his left hand on her shoulder, and his right hand clenched into a fist placed at the bend of her legs. "I'm not doing anything. If you want to think about something, lying in bed is just as good. Lie down and think slowly. It's most important to heal your injuries quickly!"

After settling her on the bed, Ye Qiu rested alone.

Watching his departing figure, Zhu Zhuqing felt like she already had an answer in her heart. Perhaps it would be difficult, but she genuinely wanted to live for herself!

A night without words!

...

In the following days, Ye Qiu felt that Zhu Zhuqing by his side had changed slightly.

She always called him to play around with those soul beast groups, riding wolves, snakes, and spiders together.

"Hehe, taste the fish I grilled for you!"

Next to a small stream, two white giant wolves were drinking water. Zhu Zhuqing and Ye Qiu sat on the bank, a fire burning in the middle.

Zhu Zhuqing handed the grilled fish to Ye Qiu, a smile on her face.

"It tastes good~ quite delicious!" Ye Qiu didn't expect much from her culinary skills, considering she was a young lady from a big family. However, after taking a small bite, he found the taste surprisingly good!

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking!" He glanced at Ye Qiu, then took another skewer of grilled fish, "At home, I often do things myself!"

Ye Qiu naturally understood her situation in the Zhu family. The age difference between her and her sister was quite significant, and she couldn't compete with her at all. Who would have thought that a young lady from a noble family would have to do some miscellaneous tasks herself!

"Your Zhu family is really abnormal!" Ye Qiu first complained, then pointed at his head with his index finger, adding, "Oh, by the way, the Star Luo Royal Family is also!"

"Yeah, indeed quite abnormal!" Zhu Zhuqing nodded in agreement, and her mood began to become a bit low again. "After all, which family has siblings that are destined to be enemies from birth?"
