It's too late to say it, but it's soon.

In Lu Lingqiu's rare expression of confusion and uncertainty about what to do, Xia Lianxing immediately understood what was going on and reacted immediately.

Next breath——

Mu Qing pushed open the door and entered.

"Brother Lingqiu, who were you talking to just now?"

The girl walked into the stone room smartly and looked at the scene inside.

Lu Lingqiu was seen standing at the table with an unnatural expression, forcing a smile on his face and saying: "Uh... maybe you heard it wrong?"

Seeing the suspicious look on the girl's face, he promptly changed the subject: "It's so late, why do you suddenly think of me?"

"...Well, I'm in a bad mood today. I thought I hadn't seen you for a long time, so I came to see you." Mu Qing said this, but her eyes were still searching around, trying to find something unusual.

She knew that Lu Lingqiu had the habit of sleeping.

It was already late at night, and even if he was a night owl, he should have already lied down. But now, he was wearing Lingyue Taoist uniform, with his sleeves rolled up, and looked like he was reading a book just now.

Wait, what is that?

It seems like...

A row of tooth marks?

Mu Qing keenly captured some details.

When Lu Lingqiu saw her looking at his arm, he immediately turned his body slightly to the right and loosened the cuffs without leaving any trace, covering the still red wound.

"Ah, why are you in a bad mood?"

He sat on the chair, took out a bag of tea leaves from the spiritual ring, took out part of it, poured it into the teapot on the table, and poured some spiritual power into the teapot.

The blue water spiritual power turns into clear water and floats above the teapot.

The red fire spirit heats it, and with just one breath, the water begins to boil out of thin air.

After it cooled down for a few seconds, he stretched out his left index finger and made a swipe in the air.

Hot water fell into the pot and soaked the tea leaves. A refreshing fragrance suddenly filled the whole house.

"Because you ignored me for a long time." Mu Qing frowned and looked at Lu Lingqiu.

Just now she clearly smelled the faint fragrance of a woman in the room, but now she was overwhelmed by the scent of tea and could no longer capture it.

"What are you talking about? I'm here, aren't I?" Lu Lingqiu took a palm-sized teacup, poured a cup of hot tea, and pushed it to the corner of the table.

"Fried flowers and falling snow. My favorite scented tea, would you like to try it?"

"Um."

Mu Qing sniffed and sat on the wooden chair opposite him.

Something is definitely wrong.

There were only two chairs in the room. Apart from the one that Lu Lingqiu always liked to sit on, it was the one where the girl was sitting.

Obviously, there's some heat up here.

Someone has definitely been here.

She picked up the teacup gracefully and took a sip. She looked at the bed behind him with her peripheral vision, seemingly unintentionally.

There is a problem.

The sweet tea liquid flows into the throat, with a slight feeling of warmth, warming the heart and stomach.

"It tastes good. Although it is tea, it has a sweet taste."

She picked up the teacup and praised the taste of the tea while walking towards Lu Lingqiu's bed.

"Really? And I like this name too. Wait, Mu Qing, what are you going to do?!"

The girl successfully attracted his attention. Lu Lingqiu, who was addicted to tea, was about to tell her the origin of the name "Chaohua Piaoxue", but he was caught off guard and found that she sat directly on his bed and moved with great speed.

He quickly put the tea cup on the storage table on one side, then suddenly reached out to grab the silk quilt, and it looked like he was about to lift it open!

"etc!!!"

Lu Lingqiu thought it was too bad, but he had no time to stop him. He saw the girl's face full of determination, and her hands had already reached the corners of the quilt.

She had long discovered that there were bulging things inside, and there was obviously something hidden in it!

If there is really a problem, if you just go and lift the quilt, your master will definitely obstruct you in every possible way, and you may even fall out! But if you attack him first, you will get all the stolen goods personally, and you can occupy the moral high ground, and he will have no reason to get angry.

Mu Qing's operation was smooth and smooth, thinking "As expected of me", and then, with an indomitable momentum, he lifted up the silk quilt without hesitation——

In an instant, a dazzling purple light flashed under the quilt, making the girl blink.

Then, a soft and waxy cat meow was heard.

"Meow--"

"ah??"

"???"

She was stunned.

Lu Lingqiu also froze on the spot.

Under the quilt, he saw a petite black kitten.

She has garnet-like pink pupils and soft and shiny fur. She is lying lazily in the middle of the big bed, looking warily at the girl in front of her.

"Ah! It's so cute! Brother Lingqiu, you actually got a cat! When did you get it?" Mu Qing had no resistance to this cute existence. She stretched out her hand to hold it in her arms.

However, he saw the black cat jumping out of the bed at a speed that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye. In a flash, he climbed onto Lu Lingqiu's body and sat upright on his shoulder. His eyes were filled with the meaning of keeping strangers away.

Seeing this, Mu Qing returned to the table thoughtfully, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I thought you were hiding a woman in the house."

"How, how is it possible..." Lu Lingqiu felt guilty and smiled awkwardly, "So are you guessing that I hide the woman in there?"

"Well. I'm relieved when I see it's a cat. You won't be angry with me, right?" The girl stroked the black hair beside her ear. Although the movement was natural, it gave people a strange and amazing feeling.

"Of course not."

Lu Lingqiu felt at ease.

That's right, at this moment, he finally felt relieved.

Mu Qing's guess was absolutely correct. The moment before she entered the house, Xia Lianxing did use the purple lightning movement technique to get into the quilt, and then...

The illusion forms the appearance of the ontology.

It wasn't that he had any evil intentions, he was just afraid that Mu Qing would have a huge misunderstanding when he saw him under the same roof with other women in the middle of the night. Once that happened, no matter how he explained it, it would be very troublesome.

Lu Lingqiu is not stupid, he can vaguely feel the girl's feelings for him...

——Unlike other spirit messengers, Mu Qing is the kind of person who, with a little affection, is possessive and wants to stay together.

This is not the first time this has happened. After all, Lu Lingqiu's appearance is here.

But he still liked Mu Qing a little bit in his heart. This feeling was very vague. It was not love at first sight, and certainly not love over time.

If I have to make it clear, it's probably the feeling of being very comfortable with each other and having a tacit understanding.

It's a long-lost feeling as if we've known each other and met each other a long time ago.

pity.

He is rational.

He knows what he wants to do and what his future will probably be like.

The angels were all lovely children, and he thought that he should at least promise them freedom in the true sense.

"Can I hug her?"

Mu Qing looked at the black cat on his shoulder and asked in a low voice.

"Yeah, okay."

Lu Lingqiu rubbed the cat's head and whispered to Xia Lianxing: "Go and let her touch you... just cooperate as much as possible."

"Meow..."

The kitten rubbed his cheek aggrievedly, then reluctantly jumped down, walked to the other side of the table, and stared at the girl in front of him.

Thought: I actually want to be played with by an inner disciple... If it weren't for the master's orders, I... I would definitely cry to her with electric shock.

Mu Qing happily hugged her to his chest, wrapped one hand around her body, and stroked her fur with the other hand, feeling the soft and furry touch, and couldn't put it down.

"What's her name?"

"Um... called..." Lu Lingqiu knew that he couldn't tell his real name. If he did, Mu Qing would find out the truth within a short time. He was not that stupid yet.

Then he randomly picked up a name: "Her name is Chocolate."

Xia Lianxing: "?"

Mu Qing: "Huh? What a strange name, but very cute."

"I think so too."

Without the previous suspicion, Mu Qing seemed to have become much more cheerful. The two of them chatted without a word until the sky turned blue, and she covered her mouth and yawned, preparing to get up and leave.

Lu Lingqiu walked her to the door: "You must tell me in advance next time you come."

"I know."

Uncharacteristically, the girl did not linger, but nodded obediently, and then left quickly.

This made him feel a little strange.

It wasn't until he returned to the house, closed the door, and sat on his big bed that he realized——

The cat is gone.
