“Why should I get in the car?”

Chu Qing smiled warmly even though countless curses were running through his mind.

Why is it her again?!

“Why?”

Ye Chenxi smiled and continued, “Don’t you… care about your family?”

“Oh… I see.”

Chu Qing kept a smile on his face. He opened the car door and sat in the front passenger seat.

“That’s the spirit, my wild man.”

A satisfied smile appeared on Ye Chenxi’s face. But the next moment, her smile froze!

…..

The car suddenly felt warmer and she felt a prickling sensation on her skin like sharp needles. This was her body’s instinctive response to danger.

“Are you… threatening me?”

Chu Qing maintained his smile as he tapped his finger gently on the crystal accessory in front of him as if he was examining it closely. However, as soon as his finger left the surface, the crystal accessory shattered into a fine powder!

“No… I’m not.”

Ye Chenxi’s smile looked forced, and she felt a strong sense of humiliation as her man pressured her.

“If it’s not a threat, then what is it?”

Chu Qing got up slightly and pressed himself against Ye Chenxi’s body, closing the car window.

A part of him couldn’t deny that Ye Chenxi had a strong body. Maybe it wasn’t a bad thing to sleep with her once. However, he wanted to be the one who initiated it, not the other way around.

Ye Chenxi swallowed her saliva. From this position, she was completely confident that she could knock Chu Qing out with one strike. However, the faint prickling sensation stopped her from acting rashly!

“I’m saying… I can help your sister and mother. I know that her company seems to be in some small situation recently.”

“And?”

Chu Qing took advantage of the situation and acted like a hooligan. He kept lying on top of Ye Chenxi, making her breathless and feel like her blouse was about to burst open.

“We can start as friends. That way, I’ll take care of your parents’ business…”

“So… you are pitying me?”

Chu Qing chuckled, but he still looked like a hooligan.

Anger appeared in Ye Chenxi’s eyes as she stared at him. She took a deep breath and said, “No. Since you don’t fall for these tricks, I will pursue you openly. Is that still not enough?”

Chu Qing pondered for a moment and nodded slowly. He could tell that Ye Chenxi’s mentality was not bad, but perhaps she behaved badly because she had grown up in a bad environment for a long time.

“Alright, let’s start as friends.”

“Oh, right. Actually, I don’t mind doing that… with you. But of course, I have to be on top!”

Chu Qing smiled evilly before straightening up.

“Drive!”

This guy…

Ye Chenxi tidied up her slightly wrinkled clothes and a strange look appeared in her eyes. She gazed at him and snorted before driving away from the school.

Chu Qing didn’t mind being friends with Ye Chenxi at all. After all, as a sword immortal, Chu Qing was famous for making friends widely in the other world. His character was publicly acknowledged in the other world.

“So where are we going now?”

“Let’s go eat. Oh, right, I have something to ask you…”

Ye Chenxi looked at Chu Qing with a complicated expression, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

“Why? Is there anything you can’t say?”

“I want to ask… Do you practice ancient martial arts too?”

“Ancient martial arts?”

Chu Qing was slightly stunned. Only then did he realize that the ancient martial arts that Ye Chenxi was talking about were the cultivation of spiritual energy. However, because it was called cultivation in another world, he did not react for a moment.

“No.”

Chu Qing lied a little, his expression unabashed.

“Pfft! Liar!”

Ye Chenxi’s eyes were almost spitting fire. If she wasn’t driving, she would have probably let go of the steering wheel and fought fiercely with Chu Qing the next moment.

If you haven’t cultivated before, could it be that the crystal accessory just now was blown into pieces by the wind?

“Anyway, I don’t know of any cultivation techniques.”

Chu Qing gave a shameless look. No matter what Ye Chenxi said, he would reply indifferently that he did not know any of them.

“Ha!”

Ye Chenxi suddenly laughed out loud.

“What are you laughing at?”

“I’m laughing at the fact that you’re really different from the other boys. The other boys are as thin as paper, but your skin is as thick as a wall. You can simply compare yourself to those famous people from the past.”

“So what? There’s no use in being thick-skinned.”

Chu Qing shrugged nonchalantly. Since he had become friends with Ye Chenxi, there was no need for him to keep a straight face. This was how he truly treated his friends. No matter what, Chu Qing was much more comfortable with Ye Chenxi than with Lin Dong or Ye Mao.

“Yes, that’s true. However, people from ancient martial arts families are all particular about morality, so we still care about our reputation.”

Ye Chenxi smiled and said. She suddenly felt that when Chu Qing was with her, she was actually more relaxed than when she was with the elders in the family or those playmates. Perhaps this was the true side of her that no one knew about.

Whether she was a woman in charge of the inheritance position of an ancient martial arts family, or a powerful figure in the underground forces, she was still in her early twenties this year and a little childish.

“Actually, I’ve secretly investigated you, your family background, and so on. But there doesn’t seem to be any records of ancient martial arts.”

“Since I’m asking you something you don’t want to say, I won’t ask further. This is probably your personal secret…”

Ye Chenxi said slowly, but Chu Qing was well aware of this point. As the heir of an ancient martial arts family, how could she not use her family’s influence to investigate him? Even if Ye Chenxi did not have such thoughts, the people in her circle of interests would also take his safety into consideration and investigate Chu Qing’s life situation on their own to ensure Ye Chenxi’s safety.

Chu Qing wanted to say something more. But in the next moment, his expression changed and he activated the spiritual energy in his dantian!

“Watch out!”
