...

Ning Fan had been staying at Wen Cai's place for four days.

"When are you planning to leave?"

Early in the morning, just as Ning Fan was killed by Serene Blade in his dream, he woke up to see Wen Cai sitting on the edge of the sofa, glaring at him with a long face.

"Good morning, Sister Cai..."

Although Ning Fan was gradually getting used to the fear of death, he was still in a daze when he just woke up.

"Good morning my ass! I'm asking you, when are you planning to leave?"

Wen Cai crossed her arms: "You've been freeloading here every day, are you addicted to it now?"

It seemed that Wen Cai had been holding back for a long time, and she started scolding him right away.

"You looked like such an innocent kid, how did you turn out to be such a shameless freeloader? The first day I let you stay was because I saw you were in a bad mood! But you've really taken it too far, acting like I've adopted you or something!"

"I've been feeding you well, and you can't even say a word of thanks! You go out all day and come back in the middle of the night! You just take a shower and go to bed as soon as you get home! You eat and leave in the morning!"

"You say you're going out to make money, but I haven't seen you bring back a single penny! I'm doing all the shopping and cooking, for heaven's sake, I'm a captain of the Monitors! How did I end up being no better than a housekeeper?!"

"And another thing! I, Wen Cai, am not married! I don't have a boyfriend! You, a young man, keep coming to my place every day, what will the neighbors think of me?!"

"Aren't you supposed to be smart? Even if I don't say it, can't you see these problems yourself? You haven't said a word until now, I'm asking you, what exactly are you thinking?!"

Ning Fan finally woke up completely.

The pressure from Serene Blade in his dream had completely disappeared.

"Sister Cai, let's talk calmly, don't get excited."

Ning Fan was sweating profusely.

In his eighteen years of life, he had never experienced such a situation.

"I'm excited? So what if I'm excited? Am I not allowed to be excited now?"

Wen Cai stood up, pointing at Ning Fan's nose: "Are you trying to control me now?"

Ning Fan sighed.

He had heard people say before that when a woman gets angry, you should never try to reason with her.

Because it's simply impossible to make them understand.

Ning Fan thought for a moment, and with courage from who knows where, he stood up and hugged Wen Cai.

As Wen Cai fell into his embrace, the softness made Ning Fan's heart race uncontrollably.

"Sister Cai, thank you."

Ning Fan could feel that Wen Cai's body...

Had frozen!

"Sister Cai, I know I've caused you a lot of trouble these days."

Ning Fan said softly: "Actually, even if you didn't ask me to leave today, I was planning to say goodbye to you today anyway."

Wen Cai's body trembled slightly.

"What... what did you say?"

"I said, I'm leaving today."

Ning Fan released Wen Cai.

It was then that he noticed Wen Cai's face...

Had turned red all the way to her neck.

Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

At this moment, Wen Cai had completely lost her fiery demeanor from earlier, and instead looked like a student who had done something wrong.

"I... I didn't really mean to drive you away..."

"I understand."

Ning Fan said softly.

Wen Cai looked up, wanting to avoid eye contact but also wanting to meet his gaze.

"What do you understand?"

"I've been staying here for free for so long, without paying a single penny..."

"Go to hell!"

A smack on the back of Ning Fan's head: "Get out! Get out now! And don't come back!"

Ning Fan stumbled from the hit.

This woman...

Why is she angry again?

"Sister Cai, about that ten thousand Solas from before..."

Before Ning Fan could finish, he saw Wen Cai's earrings start to emit a faint light.

Ning Fan panicked immediately.

"Wait, Sister Cai, you're the captain of the Monitors, you should set an example, you can't break the law! Soul Servants aren't allowed in the district..."

......

Two hours later, Ning Fan and Wen Cai were near the district wall.

Ning Fan winced with every step he took.

He didn't look injured, but only he knew that both of his inner thighs had been pinched black and blue by Wen Cai.

"Sister Cai, you were a bit rough."

Ning Fan couldn't help but complain: "My legs hurt every time I move them now, what if it affects my fighting..."

"You deserve it!"

Wen Cai cut off Ning Fan's words impatiently.

Actually, Ning Fan wasn't joking.

He really was leaving today.

Over the past few days, through his encounters with Serene Blade in his dreams, Ning Fan had realized something.

To be precise, he had gained insights through the process of being killed by Serene Blade.

Ning Fan gradually understood the significance of Serene Blade wanting him to dodge that sword strike.

That strike from Serene Blade...

It encompassed all the sword techniques he had comprehended throughout his life.

The more Ning Fan tried, the more he could feel how exquisite this seemingly ordinary strike was.

Ning Fan had been thinking and practicing every day, trying to figure out how to dodge this strike, but once he entered the dream, he still had no resistance at all.

And in this process of practice, Ning Fan's swordsmanship had also improved tremendously.

To break out of the situation, one must first enter it.

Only when Ning Fan fully understood Serene Blade's swordsmanship would he have a chance to survive in the dream.

If he had enough time, Ning Fan really wanted to wait until he had completely broken through this strike before making any plans.

But now it had been five days since he entered District F27.

Qiao Fei and Hui Zi were still waiting for him outside.

"Are you sure?"

Wen Cai had gradually calmed down, and an unusual emotion flashed in her beautiful eyes: "Once you're out that door, I won't be able to help you anymore."

"You've already helped me a lot."

Ning Fan's eyes were sincere: "Sister Cai, thank you, really."

Wen Cai rolled her eyes at Ning Fan.

And Ning Fan hugged Wen Cai again.

"Sister Cai, I will definitely come back."

"What are you doing? Taking advantage of me?"

Wen Cai pushed Ning Fan away in a panic: "Get out!"

Ning Fan nodded with a smile, then held out his hand.

Wen Cai licked her lips and took out ten thousand Solas from her pocket.

"Take care of yourself, don't die out there."

"Alright, I'll stay alive."

Ning Fan took the ten thousand Solas.

At the same time, from the corner of his eye, he saw a group of people looking in his direction from the district wall.

The leader was Old Pig from the Skull Gang.

Over there, Old Pig was smoking a cigarette, squinting as he watched Ning Fan take the ten thousand Solas from Wen Cai.

"Brother Zhu, are we really going to rob him?"

Monkey, standing beside him, asked somewhat uneasily: "This kid seems to have an unusual relationship with Wen Cai."

"What are you afraid of?"

Old Pig's eyes flashed with greed, mixed with a hint of jealousy: "That bitch Wen Cai's little pet is all he is! We're making our move outside the district, we're not breaking any rules. What can she do to us?"

"But is it worth offending Wen Cai for this small amount of money?"

"Small amount?"

Old Pig said with a cunning look: "This kid must have more good stuff on him!"

Monkey's eyes lit up.

Old Pig grinned viciously: "For the past few days, this kid has been hanging around the black market, saying he wants to buy an Elixir! How much does an Elixir cost?"

The surrounding members of the Skull Gang all became interested.

"Brother Zhu, you mean..."

"This pretty boy has at least a hundred thousand Solas worth of stuff on him!"
