Chapter 1160: Chapter 1160: Sincere Feelings (Part 1)
For the past six months, Bai Shishi and Mei Ruyan have been living in the company. Initially, it was just a single room for resting, but now it’s almost like a bedroom.
After Bai Shishi left Mei Ruyan’s office, she quickly grabbed a set of clothes from the cabinet and rushed into the bathroom to take a shower.
Whether intentional or not, the bathroom door wasn’t locked, and Lin Tian gently pushed it open.
A springtime wood mirrors the peach blossoms, while mandarin ducks bathe in the water.
Such seductive scenes aren’t for outsiders.
After her shower, Bai Shishi quickly wrapped herself tightly in a bathrobe, as if afraid of a wardrobe malfunction. Of course, no matter how tightly wrapped, Lin Tian could easily undo it with a tug.
"Shishi," Lin Tian whispered.
"What?" Bai Shishi replied in a small voice, shy like a young woman, nothing like the dominant woman in the taxi.
Lin Tian took her hand and said, "Come on, Ruyan and Miaoqiu are still waiting for us."
With Bai Shishi’s cleverness, she had already predicted Lin Tian’s mischievous intentions, yet confronted with the situation, she was still a bit reluctant.
Feeling a bit awkward, Bai Shishi asked with her head down, "So late at night, why is she waiting for us?"
Lin Tian lowered his head to her ear and softly said, "To discuss family planning."
"Not going."
"Going or not?"
"Not going!"
Lin Tian asked no further and simply picked Bai Shishi up in his arms without further ado.
Oh, and I have to say, her voluptuous figure feels better than Liou Qingcheng’s, soft and comfortable.
"Put me down right now!" Bai Shishi glared at Lin Tian, yet there was an undeniable allure to her.
"Hehe, I’ll put you down in a moment."
Bai Shishi had often played matchmaker between Lin Tian and Mei Ruyan, and now being in his arms, she didn’t struggle much, suggesting she wasn’t particularly averse to it; she was just embarrassed.
Lin Tian, holding Bai Shishi, soon arrived at Mei Ruyan’s room door, finding it locked. However, to Lin Tian, this was essentially useless. In just a second, the door was opened.
Upon opening the room door, he immediately smelled a fragrance in the air, one Lin Tian was familiar with; it’s unique to Mei Ruyan.
Mei Ruyan was standing behind the door, wearing a black bathrobe that half-covered her, clearly just having finished a shower with even her hair still wet. Water droplets dripped from her hair onto her fair skin, inviting admiration.
Mei Ruyan was slightly taken aback, looking at Lin Tian at the door; she never expected him to open the door so easily.
As their eyes met, Lin Tian instantly felt a bit awkward. He quickly put on what he thought was a charming smile and said, "What a coincidence."
"..." Coincidence? This is my room!
Before Mei Ruyan could tell him to leave, Lin Tian deftly snuck in with Bai Shishi in his arms, then closed the door with his foot, sitting down on the bed with no intention of leaving.
Mei Ruyan knew exactly what mischief Lin Tian was up to, as a hint of blush appeared on her face, her voice cold and trembling as she asked, "Why are you here?"
Without thinking, Lin Tian used his previous excuse, "To discuss family planning."
"..."
...
The next day was brilliantly sunny, the sun shining through the black curtains into the room, gentle and warming.
In the room, only Miaoqiu and Lin Tian remained on the bed, while the other two had fled the room at the crack of dawn.
"The sun’s already up, aren’t you getting up?"
Miaoqiu propped her hand on her cheek, playing with her hair, a gesture that stirred Lin Tian’s impulses despite his exhaustion from the night.
"Too tired," Lin Tian said.
"Pfft~" Miaoqiu couldn’t help but laugh, "You know you’re tired? Let’s see if you dare be so greedy next time."
Lin Tian let out a long breath; tired, but it was worth it.
He rested his hands under his head, looking at Miaoqiu, and asked, "Do you often come here?"
Miaoqiu gazed at him plaintively and lay down, resting her head on his arm, saying, "I am the Xu Family’s eldest daughter. I used to stay at the Celestial Dragon Hotel because of Ruyan and to find someone to treat my father’s illness. Now that his illness is cured, I certainly don’t need to stay there."
"Ruyan grew up without much affection, which led to her being so aloof now. I, as her sister, accompany her more, hoping her personality might improve."
"Moreover, after reaching Foundation Establishment, Ruyan needs to start cultivating, or her natural eyebrow bone will be wasted. Sometimes I envy her; in just a few days, she reached the level of an initial Martial Artist, soon catching up to me."
Cultivators are always eager for power, and Miaoqiu is no exception. Watching her sister grow stronger brings her joy, so she stays at Xianglong Building, exchanging cultivation insights with Mei Ruyan.
As for company matters, most are delegated to others. Is anything more important than cultivation?
After hearing this, Lin Tian felt a bit uncomfortable. Since helping her reach Foundation Establishment, he hadn’t been involved in her cultivation. As her man, he felt a bit inadequate.
"What’s wrong with you?" Miaoqiu, perceptive as she is, seemed to sense Lin Tian’s emotional change and asked with concern.
"Nothing, just thinking I’m being too fickle." Lin Tian said, looking at the ceiling.
"Pfft~" Miaoqiu couldn’t help but laugh, "So you know too? You’re the most fickle flirt I’ve ever seen."
Lin Tian could only give a wry smile; he couldn’t argue against that.
After the wry smile, Lin Tian sat up and asked, "How many of your Eight Extraordinary Meridians have opened now?"
"Only four... I’m not like you, such a prodigy. Despite still being so young, you’ve made it to Golden Core." Miaoqiu is undoubtedly a charming vixen, and with every natural gesture, she exudes allure, almost tempting Lin Tian to pounce again.
"Sit up. Let me help you unblock your meridians," Lin Tian said.
Miaoqiu blinked at Lin Tian, giggling, "You’re planning to Dual Cultivate with me?"
Lin Tian didn’t have this thought initially, but her teasing inflamed him, making him want to do as she suggested.
Slap!
Lin Tian slapped Miaoqiu’s bulging hips, intentionally using a gentlemanly tone, "We’ll discuss Dual Cultivation later; for now, sit properly and regulate your breath so I can help you unblock your meridians."
"Hmph~" Miaoqiu shot him a sultry glance, understanding he wasn’t joking, and she sat properly as he told her, beginning to regulate her breath.
Miaoqiu has been at the intermediate Martial Artist level for two years now, and with only ordinary elixirs as support, the speed isn’t particularly fast nor slow. She knows well the difficulty, and thus holds little hope for Lin Tian’s help.
This young man is simply trying to show he cares.
But in cultivation, how much help can anyone really provide?
