Nian Shutong returned to the small wooden house with Jing Bai, but by then it was already night. Her half-enlightenment cultivation session had taken a very long time.
So, Nian Shutong and Jing Bai quietly entered her room without making any sound.
The next day, as dawn was breaking, Fu Yunhe, who was concerned about Nian Shutong, stepped out of his room and immediately spotted Jing Bai crouched at the door.
Jing Bai, even more alert, stood up in an attacking and protective stance, positioning himself in front of Nian Shutong's door.
"Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad guy."
Right after he said this, Fu Yunhe suddenly felt that having said such a thing made him seem even more like a bad guy.
Isn't that a classic line of a villain?
"You're right, you're not a bad guy. They say beautiful people are most easily forgiven when they make mistakes."
Nian Shutong opened her door and stepped out, her teasing words prompting Fu Yunhe to give her a helpless look.
