Boarding Life

This statement rang in her ears, leaving Ming Xueying both furious and enraged.

However, more than anger, her eyes were filled with disbelief and shock.

After all, as the daughter of the Ming Family, there were very few who could reject her!

But Qin Qi wasted no words and stated directly, "Senior Sister Ming Lan, let’s go!"

Ming Lan found Qin Qi’s response equally astonishing, but she also realized that staying here was inadvisable. Taking Qin Qi by the arm, they hurriedly departed.

Only when she saw the direction of Qin Qi’s departure did Ming Xueying gradually regain her composure.

Soon after, a slight smirk appeared on her lips, "Hmph, the things this girl sets her sights on never slip through her fingers!"

"Qin Qi, is it... I’m determined to have you!"

...

Before long, Qin Qi and Ming Lan entered Mingqian City.

Although Mingqian City was large, Ming Lan only had a modest courtyard to settle in within the city.

Fortunately, the courtyard had two rooms for resting, and Ming Lan gently said, "Qin Qi, you can stay in this room tonight. I’ll sleep in my mother’s room!"

"Where is your mother?" Qin Qi asked.

A trace of sadness flashed across Ming Lan’s face, "My mother passed away years ago due to a cultivation mishap."

Upon hearing this, Qin Qi frowned slightly.

It was not hard to deduce that Ming Lan’s mother’s status in the Ming Family was indeed low.

A cultivation mishap, with the Ming Family’s resources, could typically be remedied without risking life.

The only possibility was that due to Ming Lan’s mother’s low status, the Ming Family was unwilling to invest resources to save her.

Seeing that the conversation touched on sensitive matters, Qin Qi could only say, "I’m sorry!"

"No need to apologize. On the contrary, Qin Qi, I should thank you!" Ming Lan said gently, her eyes clear as water.

Qin Qi asked puzzledly, "Why thank me?"

Ming Lan giggled, "If it weren’t for you, I’d have been humiliated by Miss Xue Ying today. Plus, you refused Miss Xue Ying’s invitation..."

Qin Qi smiled, "Since I’ve already promised you, naturally I won’t agree to her."

He spoke genuinely.

Although not a virtuous man, he was someone who kept his word!

However, seeing the blush spreading across Ming Lan’s fair face, making it even more charming.

Qin Qi suddenly felt quite intrigued and said with a playful smile, "But, offering my whole-hearted help to you, Miss Ming Lan. Miss Ming Lan, are you just going to thank me with words?"

Ming Lan was slightly taken aback, "Junior Brother Qin Qi, what do you mean by that?"

Qin Qi smirked, "Senior Sister Ming Lan, when thanking someone, there should be sincerity involved. Just saying it isn’t enough, is it?"

Ming Lan became a bit flustered, quickly saying, "In the future, I will certainly find a way to thank you properly, Junior Brother Qin Qi!"

Qin Qi burst out laughing, "Senior Sister Ming Lan, thanks should be given on the spot. In the future? Who knows what you’ll do by then."

Ming Lan couldn’t help but grow nervous.

Indeed, she wanted to thank Qin Qi sincerely.

But she didn’t have anything valuable on her.

She whispered carefully, "I do have some Spirit Stones..."

Qin Qi immediately replied, "Senior Sister Ming Lan, I never said I wanted Spirit Stones!"

"You don’t want Spirit Stones, then what do you want?" Ming Lan asked hesitantly. "I don’t have anything valuable or interesting for you!"

Qin Qi smirked, "Senior Sister Ming Lan, when you want to thank someone, you should let them express what they want."

"Besides, who said there’s nothing interesting on Senior Sister Ming Lan?"

Ming Lan was surprised, "Is there really something else interesting about me?"

Qin Qi smiled, "Of course, there is!"

After saying this, he leaned in, reducing the distance between Ming Lan and himself.

In that instant, Ming Lan’s large eyes and beautiful face were close at hand.

It’s even possible to see her nervous and cute expression clearly.

"Junior Brother Qin Qi, what... what do you mean by this..."

"Senior Sister Ming Lan still doesn’t understand, huh? What I’m interested in is you," Qin Qi said.

Then, without giving Ming Lan time to react.

He immediately lowered his head and kissed Ming Lan.

For a moment, Ming Lan was unable to respond, feeling as if her mind was electrified, cornered by Qin Qi.

A warmth she couldn’t resist spread through her body via her tender lips, filling her with a pleasant sense of surrender.

She was clearly inexperienced in such matters; at that moment, her mind went blank, forgetting how to think.

Qin Qi naturally wouldn’t miss such an opportunity.

"It seems Ming Lan is quite a novice!"

Qin Qi smiled.

He wasn’t satisfied with just a kiss.

He then raised his hand, reaching inside her clothes.

Feeling along the unidentified color of her undergarment, he firmly grasped a soft, round breast.

As his hand held the delicate breast, Qin Qi smiled with satisfaction.

"Nice figure!"

He felt delighted, continuing to kiss and explore, growing more assertive as time passed.

As Qin Qi grew unwilling to stop at that point.

His hand, once exploring, now slid towards the hem of Ming Lan’s dress.

At this moment, Ming Lan suddenly snapped back to her senses.

Her body trembling, she pushed Qin Qi away, breathing heavily, "Qin Qi, I... I’m going back to my room! Tomorrow, the clan leader will call everyone to the Land of Overflowing Spirits, so you... you should rest early too!"

With that, she hurriedly entered her room.

Once inside, her heart pounded wildly with an indescribable emotion.

Seeing this, Qin Qi smiled.

"Adorable!"

Qin Qi stretched lazily.

Having done such a bold thing, yet she wasn’t angry or rejecting him, meaning there were many opportunities!

However, the priority tomorrow is the Land of Overflowing Spirits matter.

Thinking of this, Qin Qi returned to his room.

"This trip to the Land of Overflowing Spirits is bound to be fraught with dangers!" Qin Qi thought silently, "Just today, we encountered Xue Zhou. Who knows how many more geniuses from these families there are!"

Today, he realized the gap between himself and those at the Fake Core Stage.

"Today’s situation, if not for cultivating the Source Celestial Scripture, where my mana surpasses others at the same level, we might not have lasted a few rounds against them!"

Qin Qi thought silently.

Mana instant cast!

Without abundant mana, it was impossible to fight against Fake Core Stage geniuses.
