Chapter 29.2

Incapable of Saying Fake Words (2)

“It’s Shuang Shuang.” Ji Qingzhou reminded him that it was a Profound Frost Beast. Wouldn’t it be appropriate to call it Shuang Shuang?

“Shuang.” Shen Rongyu’s thin lips opened, still holding fast to his bottom line.

“Xiao Yu-shixiong,” Ji Qingzhou was a little anxious. “It’s Shuang Shuang.”

“Zhouzhou,” Shen Rongyu evaded the subject.

Ji Qingzhou sighed softly. She realized that Shen Rongyu was dead set on calling it by a single name.

She was a bit chagrined and felt stupid for acting too enthusiastic just now.

Ji Qingzhou realized that her emotional intelligence was quite low. She sometimes blurted out a sentence or two that offended others’ taboo, but she herself was unaware of it.

Shen Rongyu was probably pissed, so she hung her head low, stopped talking, and continued to be silent.

Shen Rongyu was sitting beside her, wanting her to correct him. However, she remained silent for a long time. He turned his head, only to find that Ji Qingzhou was twisting the sash of her sleeves helplessly.

This sash was turquoise, and it was on the dress she just bought today. He had even fastened it himself.

Shen Rongyu reluctantly poked the Profound Frost Beast’s chin, and his tightly pursed thin lips opened.

“Youyou,” he called the Profound Frost Beast. Not calling the stacked name was his greatest stubbornness. He had to separate the double ‘Shuang’ at all costs.

The Profound Frost Beast cub liked this name very much, and immediately flew up in joy.

The name also sounded better than the one she gave. “Youyou – it’s much better than what I came up with.”

She gave Maomao his name because he was a donkey. She was really not creative in naming things.

“I just said Shuang,” Shen Rongyu denied.

This denial was actually quite humorous. Ji Qingzhou suddenly felt amused by him. Shen Rongyu’s resistance to saying the repetition-words was seriously funny.

In fact, she seldom smiled. The corners of her lips were only slightly arched, and a feathery laughter vibrated from her throat.

It was also the first time that Shen Rongyu saw her laugh, not with that confused expression on her eyebrows, but with a bright delighted laughter.

She bore resemblance to a delicate flower in the corner. With such a smile, even the dark corner seemed to light up.

Shen Rongyu moved his hand beside him and didn’t say anything. If he were to utter a word, Ji Qingzhou would become shy again.

After entrusting the cub in Shen Rongyu’s care, Ji Qingzhou left. She went back and fed Maomao some carrots to comfort him.

On the weekend in Xuanyun Sect, she and Shen Rongyu tacitly agreed that they would not practice together… Shen Rongyu had no qualms about cultivating together, but Ji Qingzhou insisted on sleeping.

After washing up, she fell headlong into her bed, buried her face in the soft pillows and sighed.

Today was clearly just a day off, but why did it feel like so much happened in one day?

Ji Qingzhou sighed deeply and she thought to herself, Fortunately, what happened in the Peach Blossom Mist was an illusion…

She took out the small mirror hanging around her neck and chatted with the system.

As soon as the system appeared, it began to praise Ji Qingzhou: “Host, you are really a little love genius. How did you come up with the idea of

fostering the Profound Frost Beast with him to create more opportunities for an encounter every day?”

This thought had never occured to Ji Qingzhou at all. She almost forgot that she still had a capture mission.

“The date was fun. Did your heart race?” The system also announced a message, “Host, I have already unlocked one stage of function. Keep up the good work and keep getting closer to him for me to absorb energy. I have other functions to unlock.”

Ji Qingzhou thought of the killing intent alarm function. It was indeed useful. Otherwise, she would have been killed that night, and it would have been too late for her to escape.

“Why do they want to kill me?” Ji Qingzhou rolled on the bed holding the mirror. This was the most incomprehensible question to her.

She lifted the quilt and covered her head. This was the safest way to sleep, and she shrank into the corner of the bed.

The leisurely weekend passed quickly, and Ji Qingzhou, who was about to take the morning class, had to face the class she was most afraid of.

Ye Duanhong was suspected of wanting to kill her. What was more, he was mean. Ji Qingzhou was going to attend his morning class today and was a little nervous.

She packed up her things and flew the Flywheel to Ye Duanhong’s immortal abode. She didn’t know what she would experience in today’s Magic Class, so she might as well observe if Ye Duanhong bore killing intent towards her.

As a result, as soon as she entered Ye Duanhong’s immortal abode, she saw the two people she didn’t want to see the most, namely Qiu Mingxue and Ying Xiu.

Outside the place where Ye Duanhong lectured, Qiu Mingxue pushed Ying Xiu up to a tree and reminded her with a raised voice, “Ying Xiu, haven’t you still figured out your identity? You are a maid, and I am the Princess. Who are you to tell me what to do?”
