Ti flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was already afternoon.
Ever since Jiang Feng had taught the heart thod of the "Ice Moon Divine Skill" to the Demoness, he hadn't expected her to beco so completely absorbed once she started practicing.
Without any concern for still being in the wilderness, she sat on a rock and entered a state of ditation.
As a result, Jiang Feng naturally couldn't leave either. First, he had to protect the Demoness, and secondly, since she was scantily clad, it would be troubleso if soone happened to see her.
Having not eaten for half a day, he could only catch a few fish from the pool, roast them, and barely fill his stomach.
Another long while passed, and as ti gradually reached dusk, with the Demoness's cultivation becoming more proficient, she gradually mastered the essence of the cultivation technique and completely integrated herself with the "Ice Moon Divine Skill".
Even the temperature by the pool seed to drop slightly, adding a touch of chill to the hot weather.
Originally, this kind of cold-attribute cultivation technique was suitable for the ethereal quality of a woman, and the Demoness's talent and personality happened to match perfectly, allowing her to achieve more with less in cultivation.
Just as Jiang Feng was getting sowhat impatient and was about to wake the Demoness, she opened her eyes appropriately, smiling charmingly at him.
"Xiao Feng, you've waited long!"
Jiang Feng nodded: "How do you feel?"
"This cultivation technique is truly mysterious, much more powerful than that top-level technique 'Ni Chang Divine Skill' that our alliance lost half of! Where did you get it from?"
The Demoness asked excitedly and curiously.
"As long as it's useful to you. I could feel it; this cultivation technique suits you well and is tailor-made for you," Jiang Feng said calmly.
The Demoness knew Jiang Feng didn't want to reveal too much, so she didn't press further and just glanced at the sky, surprised: "Is it this late already? How long did I sit for?"
Imrsed in cultivation, she naturally didn't know how quickly ti passed outside and only now realized she'd delayed Jiang Feng for nearly a whole day, feeling sowhat apologetic.
"Xiao Feng, I'm sorry for delaying you..."
"It's nothing. Let's go back. Keep up your cultivation, and your progress won't be slower than Yue Ji." Jiang Feng said.
"Mm, I definitely won't let you down!"
The Demoness took a deep breath and finally stood up.
However, realizing she was still nearly naked, she felt a bit shy.
But then she thought, today even her chest had been touched by Jiang Feng, and they had taken a "lover's bath", so being looked at a few more tis couldn't make it worse?
So, she quickly put on her dress by the shore and followed Jiang Feng with a playful shyness.
...
Back in the city, Jiang Feng parted ways with the Demoness and returned ho alone.
Having carelessly spent another day outside, he figured Nangong Qingcheng would be upset again.
As expected, when he got ho, he saw Nangong Qingcheng alone on the sofa, looking over the company materials sent by Bai Zhiqing, while Chu Feifei, Zhang Qinyao, and Liu Shiyuan were all upstairs, giggling and doing a live stream with Baili Xiyue.
After buying those live streaming devices, the girls cleared out a small storage room upstairs, specifically for Baili Xiyue's live streams.
That room wasn't suitable for living, but it worked fine for live streaming, giving Baili Xiyue a real place to settle in this little ho.
"Busy man, you're back?"
Nangong Qingcheng sat cross-legged on the sofa and glanced at Jiang Feng as he entered, her tone indifferent.
Jiang Feng felt sowhat guilty, though he hadn't intended to do anything inappropriate with the Demoness, yet their ti alone did prick his conscience. He awkwardly laughed, "Qingcheng, don't overthink it. I've told you, the Demoness and her team were specially hired to be your bodyguards. I temporarily placed them under Feng Yueji, ready to call them over when needed."
"Arrange it however you want, what does it have to do with ?" Nangong Qingcheng huffed coldly.
"Cough cough, still mad?"
Jiang Feng chuckled awkwardly and sat next to Nangong Qingcheng, boldly touching her smooth, fair leg: "How does it not matter? Didn't you agree to let bring them to Binhai?"
"You idiot! What if Chu Feifei and the others co down and see?"
Nangong Qingcheng shrank her leg back and glared at Jiang Feng, annoyed. This guy was getting more and more outrageous! Talking ant talking; why touch her whenever, wherever!
"So you're saying if no one else is around I can touch you freely?" Jiang Feng mischievously winked, deliberately changing the subject to ease Nangong Qingcheng's mood.
"As if!"
Nangong Qingcheng's cheeks flushed red imdiately. This rascal, even his mouth was getting cheekier than before!
"Jiang Feng, don't think I've forgiven you; you know exactly what you did out there!"
Nangong Qingcheng sat up straight, pouting: "I only hope you'll restrain yourself in the future, even if you do sothing wrong, don't let know or see it. I couldn't bear that sha!"
"Qingcheng, what are you talking about? Am I that kind of person—"
Jiang Feng felt even more embarrassed. How did it seem like Nangong Qingcheng could see right through him now?
"For Fengming and for the sisters in the family, you've brought this Maid Corps, I'm grateful. But if you use this convenience to flirt around..."
Nangong Qingcheng felt a mont of grievance as she said this, but she took a deep breath and managed not to let her eyes redden: "I'll still say it, just don't let see it!"
After coming back this morning, she reflected deeply and decided she would never again make the elderly grandfather worry because of her romantic entanglents. Nor would she disgrace herself by drinking alone in sadness.
She understood that feeling wronged and pitiful wouldn't always hold Jiang Feng's heart. Only by becoming stronger and more excellent herself could she better match Jiang Feng, ensuring he wouldn't grow tired of her.
"Qingcheng, I really didn't an that, you've overthought..." Jiang Feng sighed and wanted to hold Nangong Qingcheng's cold little hand again.
However, at this mont, Nangong Qingcheng's phone rang. She picked it up from the coffee table and found it was a call from her cousin, Nangong Yan!
This left Nangong Qingcheng feeling very surprised. Since the fallout with her second uncle's family, she hadn't privately contacted Nangong Yan for a long ti. Why was the other party suddenly calling now?
In front of Jiang Feng, Nangong Qingcheng had no choice but to press answer: "Cousin, what's up?"
"Nangong Qingcheng, you still call cousin, which ans there's still blood kinship between us!"
On the other end of the line, Nangong Yan began with a sarcastic tone: "Tonight is my engagent party, co over! The location is at Tianquan Farm in the suburbs, I've already inford grandpa, and I've inford your parents too. Oh, and don't forget to bring your 'precious' husband Jiang Feng along, though I detest his presence, an extra person always helps to fill the crowd."
"Engagent?"
Nangong Qingcheng was a bit taken aback. Is it this fast? The other day, her second uncle's family had just discussed the engagent with grandpa, and now it's already imminent?
And they even scheduled it for tonight?
Just as Nangong Qingcheng was about to say sothing else, Nangong Yan simply hung up.
This left Nangong Qingcheng feeling inexplicably uneasy and slightly apprehensive.
