Chapter 25: Interlude, Ning Rongrong's shyness

Chapter 25: Interlude, Ning Rongrong's shyness
I saw Dugu Huang in the mirror, his skin was as white as jade, his childish face showed tenacity, his moon-white robe matched with his short hair pouring down like ink, one would involuntarily say at first sight, what a handsome young man.

"Tsk tsk tsk, being strong is temporary, but being handsome is for a lifetime."

Dugu Huang touched his chin and looked away from the mirror with satisfaction.

"What are they doing at this time?"

Looking at the sky outside the window which had already turned dark, and thinking of the little faces of Ning Rongrong and Bai Chenxiang, a trace of thought appeared in his mind. Without stopping, he walked to the door and pushed open the elegant wooden door.

Looking at this unfamiliar environment, Dugu Huang had to use his soul power to sense the breath of Ning Rongrong and Bai Chenxiang on the first floor and walked down from the second floor.

When he saw two people sitting with their backs to him on the brown leather sofa in the hall, he tiptoed behind them.

At this moment, they were talking in low voices, and unsurprisingly, Dugu Huang behind them heard them.

"This stinky Dugu has been unconscious for more than six hours, why hasn't he woken up yet? Did Teacher Liu misperceive it?

Isn't it said that given Chou Dugu's physical condition, he will wake up within three hours? Why hasn't he come down yet after such a long time?

No, no, Chenxiang, what should we do? "

"With Mr. Liu's power as a soul saint, there shouldn't be any mistakes in examining Dugu's body. Do you think Dugu might have run into some trouble and won't wake up?"

"It's so serious, no, I want someone from the sect to treat Chou Dugu."

Listening to Bai Chenxiang's explanation, Ning Rongrong had some bad thoughts in her mind, and she stood up directly from the leather sofa where she was sitting.

Ning Rongrong said this without any hesitation. The ring-like soul guide on her right hand flashed, and the white token that she took out when she was bullied appeared in her hand again.

Standing behind them at this moment, listening to their concerns about him, Dugu Huang felt warm in his heart.

If my guess was correct, then the token should have been given to her by one of the two Titled Douluo for her to use in times of crisis.

It's only been one day, has our relationship become so important?
Dugu Huang now knew that if he continued watching, this arrogant little rich woman in front of him would actually use the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect's token.

"Ahem, Ning Rongrong, I'm not dead yet."

"ah!!!"

After hearing the sudden noise behind her, Ning Rongrong was thinking about rescuing Dugu Huang with the help of her own sect, but the token in her hand slipped out of her hand due to the shock from the sudden noise.

She instinctively took a step forward, trying to grab the token, but the sudden movement sprained her numb ankle.

She was petite to begin with, and she fell forward when she lost her balance. There happened to be a square table made of nanmu in front of her.

The pain from her sprained ankle was so severe that she didn't even have the strength to gather her soul power to protect herself.

Just as he was about to hit the corner of the table and leave a scar on his forehead, Dugu Huang, who was standing behind him, moved instantly.

The soul power under Dugu Huang's feet exploded perfectly under his extreme control, and the speed was so fast that it left a faint afterimage where he had just stood.

In the last second, Dugu Huang was still behind the leather sofa, and in the next second he was standing in front of Ning Rongrong.

Dugu Huang didn't make any move to reach out and hug anything at this moment. He just stood there and watched Ning Rongrong fall uncontrollably onto his chest.

Ning Rongrong thought she was going to fall down, and had already closed her eyes, waiting for the pain to come.

Suddenly, I felt my forehead not touching the hard corner of the table as expected, but instead touching a strange, tough and fleshy place.

When she completely landed on Dugu Huang's chest, her small nose twitched uncontrollably again, and the smell of sunshine made Ning Rongrong's eyes light up. "So warm and smells so good. No, it's the smell of stinky Dugu."

Ning Rongrong also fully reacted at this moment. She still had to maintain her dignity as the eldest daughter of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.

She stretched out her hand to push Dugu Huang away, wanting to take a few steps back, but found that she seemed unable to do it, and the sprained ankle did not seem to heal for a while.

Seeing Ning Rongrong standing in an uncomfortable posture, Bai Chenxiang walked silently to her side, took Ning Rongrong's arm from Dugu Huang's hand, and helped her to the leather sofa where she had just been sitting.

"Thank you Chenxiang."

"Smelly Dugu, why did you suddenly speak and scare me? Do you know that?"

Dugu Huang did not respond to Ning Rongrong immediately. His eyes met Bai Chenxiang's which showed her concern for him.

He immediately understood what Zi Chenxiang meant, and immediately gave her a look that said he couldn't be better.

After receiving Dugu Huang's gaze, the worry in her heart finally subsided.

"You stinky lone..."

Before Ning Rongrong finished speaking, she saw Dugu Huang squatting in front of her and taking off his Chanel-style leather shoes, exposing his feet completely to the air.

In an instant, Ning Rongrong's face turned red. How dare Dugu Huang touch her feet?

"Don't think too much. I'm just making up for my mistake. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have sprained your ankle."

Dugu Huang did not look up to see Ning Rongrong's shy expression at the moment. He held Ning Rongrong's little feet with one hand, and stretched out his index finger and ring finger with the other hand, and a warm soul power appeared on his fingers.

Then he placed his hand on Ning Rongrong's ankle and began to rub it slowly.

Bai Chenxiang, who had been standing beside the two of them without saying a word, thought to herself:

"Dugu Huang, do you know that not just anyone can touch a girl's feet..."

······
Click...
Suddenly, the door of the villa was opened, and the person who appeared at the door was their teacher - Liu Erlong.

"Wow, Teacher Liu, you're back."

When Ning Rongrong saw Liu Erlong, she stood up from the sofa and walked to her side, and Bai Chenxiang did the same.

"Teacher Liu, classmate Dugu has woken up."

Liu Erlong shifted her gaze away from the two obedient female classmates and turned to look at Dugu Huang, who was lying on the sofa with a comfortable look on his face. Suddenly, a look of surprise appeared in her eyes.

If at noon, Dugu Huang felt like a ball of extremely hot flame when possessed by his martial spirit, then the Dugu Huang now in her eyes was like a dazzling sun, warm yet scorching, gentle yet overbearing.

"How could he have changed so much after only being away for an afternoon? Could it be that he hadn't used his full strength at that time? No, when he fainted, I clearly sensed that there was not a trace of soul power left in his body.

Even if my soul power is restored to its perfect state now, it is impossible for the change to be so great."

Feeling the surprise and astonishment in Liu Erlong's eyes when he was looking at him, Dugu Huang raised his eyebrows. As expected of a Soul Sage, he could see the changes in himself at a glance.

Uh, I’m numb from writing and my brain is broken, so just treat it as a side story. The hunt for the first soul ring will begin in the next chapter.
