Starting Check-in Reward: Tomson Riviera Chapter 139 - 138: Oh, Women, So Fickle

"I’m going to sue you for slander! I haven’t gotten away with anything yet, okay?"

Ye Ling imdiately protested.

"You..."

Ning Ruoxi, suddenly annoyed, stomped hard on Ye Ling’s foot.

Ye Ling hissed, sucking in a sharp breath. With an aggrieved look on his face, he said, "That was vicious, don’t you think?"

"Anyway, I won’t be ho, so you have to behave. No hitting on other girls, you hear ? And no scrolling through TikTok either!"

Ning Ruoxi stared at Ye Ling, her gaze brimming with threat.

"Yes, yes, yes."

Ye Ling nodded quickly, unable to stop himself from sighing.

’, the great Ye the Mighty Man, has it really co to this?’

’Well, not hitting on other girls isn’t a big deal, but... not scrolling TikTok? I’m not sure I can control that.’

As he thought this, the corner of Ye Ling’s mouth curled into a sly grin.

"Hmph!"

Seeing the look on his face, Ning Ruoxi knew he hadn’t taken her seriously. She pinched him again before saying, "Oh, right. My old dorm mates are having a get-together tonight. You can co pick up from the art studio, and we’ll go together."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Ye Ling raised his eyebrows. "No problem."

’My girl invited herself. Of course I have to go with her.’

’Otherwise...’

’I probably won’t be allowed into her bed tonight!’

"Well, I’m heading out now."

Ning Ruoxi said, walking over to give Ye Ling a hug and a quick kiss on the cheek.

"Mm, okay."

Ye Ling smiled faintly and ruffled her hair.

He didn’t have classes today, so he decided to just skip going to the university. College life was definitely a lot more relaxed than high school.

"I shouldn’t have subjected that Luo Yue girl to so much of our PDA before. Now that she’s gone, the house feels so empty." Ye Ling shook his head, then suddenly scooped up Zhao Cai from a corner.

"eeoow~"

Suddenly grabbed by Ye Ling, the fat cat stretched its little paws. Its big eyes darted around slyly, as if to say, ’So you only rember now that your girl is gone?’

’Just as I thought. n are all trash!’

"You freaking..."

Sensing the disdain in its gaze, Ye Ling imdiately squished the little guy’s face, kneading it roughly a few tis.

Instantly, Zhao Cai curled into a ball, hugging Ye Ling’s arm with an aggrieved look on its face.

WHIMPER!

’This human is terrifying!’

"Now you know who’s boss, huh?"

Ye Ling snorted, his face full of pride.

’My status in this house might be a little precarious, but... dealing with a fat cat like you? That’s a piece of cake.’

"eeoow~"

Zhao Cai stuck out its tongue and licked Ye Ling’s face, as if trying to suck up to him.

"Alright, I’ll reward you with an extra can of food today."

Ye Ling chuckled, casually grabbing a can from the fridge. He opened it and placed it on the floor.

WHOOSH!

The mont Zhao Cai saw the can, it shot out of Ye Ling’s arms like a bolt of lightning. It buried its chubby face directly into the canned at and began gobbling it down with noisy smacks.

"You damned fat cat."

Ye Ling pursed his lips, but a faint smile played on them.

Before he knew it, several months had passed since he’d returned to the country. Looking back on everything that had happened in that ti, it felt almost unbelievable.

The system, Blue Cat, Ning Ruoxi...

He had once been just an ordinary young man, but over the past month, he had beco anything but.

’Speaking of which, Ruoruo’s birthday seems to be coming up.’

Rembering sothing, Ye Ling sat down on the sofa and fell into thought.

As a proper boyfriend, he naturally had to have his little highness’s birthday committed to mory.

November 14th.

Ye Ling rembered the date clearly. It was less than a month away.

Since it was her first birthday since they’d gotten together, Ye Ling naturally placed great importance on it...

...

Soti between three and five in the afternoon, Ye Ling drove to Modu University.

"Ruoruo, over here!"

Ye Ling had just parked the car when he spotted Ning Ruoxi walking toward the campus gate and waved.

Ning Ruoxi saw him too and ca skipping over, leaping directly into his arms.

"Dummy!"

Ning Ruoxi nuzzled against Ye Ling’s chest like a kitten and called out sweetly, then looked up. "Did you miss ?"

"Of course I did. How could I not miss my little treasure after a whole day apart?"

Ye Ling hugged the little thing with imnse satisfaction and chuckled.

"Hmph! You big oaf."

Ning Ruoxi pouted, but she let go of Ye Ling and got right into the car.

Instantly, black lines appeared on Ye Ling’s forehead.

’Won... so fickle!’

’She was so excited to see just a mont ago, and now she’s calling an oaf?’

Ye Ling gave a helpless smile and got into the car as well.

"Where are we going?"

Ye Ling asked, turning to look at Ning Ruoxi.

"Umm, let see..."

Ning Ruoxi said, pulling out her phone for a look.

But a mont later, she froze.

"What’s wrong?"

Ye Ling asked, finding her reaction strange.

"It looks like the place they booked... is the Drunken Immortal Inn."

Ning Ruoxi said, sticking her tongue out playfully.

"Is that right? Well, let’s go then."

Ye Ling was a little surprised as well. He shrugged, started the Maybach, and headed for the Drunken Immortal Inn.

When the two of them arrived at the Drunken Immortal Inn, a few girls were waiting by the entrance. Ye Ling recognized one of them—it was Zhou Ya, the girl he’d t in the art studio last ti.

"They’re over there!"

Ning Ruoxi said, pointing to the girls at the entrance.

"Okay."

Ye Ling parked the car, and then took Ning Ruoxi’s hand as they got out.

"Whoa, Ruoruo, you really brought your boyfriend!"

"Isn’t that car a Maybach? I didn’t realize your Ye Ling was so rich!"

Seeing Ning Ruoxi get out of the car holding Ye Ling’s hand, the girls imdiately started chattering amongst themselves.

"You guys, stop teasing ."

Ning Ruoxi’s pretty face flushed slightly, clearly not quite used to her roommates’ teasing.

"Hey, everyone."

Ye Ling, however, just smiled and greeted them politely.

"Ruoruo, it looks like you’re the only one who brought her boyfriend today," Zhou Ya said to Ning Ruoxi with a wink.

"So? If I have a boyfriend, why wouldn’t I bring him?"

Ning Ruoxi retorted, sticking her tongue out with a mischievous glint in her eye.

’Hearing this, Ye Ling couldn’t help but turn to look at the little minx. He never expected this little lass had such a side to her.’

"Co on, let’s hurry inside."

Ning Ruoxi seed to sense Ye Ling’s gaze. Her face flushed red as she quickly pulled him inside.

Zhou Ya and her friends had already booked a private room, so even without Ye Ling having to step in, they were all seated quickly.

"Ruoruo, since your boyfriend ca along today, you have to co sing with us later. No refusing this ti, okay!" Zhou Ya said to Ning Ruoxi with a wide grin.
