Chapter 292: Chapter 272: Advanced Gift Pack, The System Is Very Thoughtful
"Hmph!"
Seeing Ye Lingâs smug expression, Ning Ruoxi fumed. With a soft grunt, she flipped over and pinned him underneath her.
"What are you doing?"
Ye Ling was stunned. Before he could say another word, the Little Fox Demonâs attack was upon him, stuffing his unspoken words back down his throat...
...
Since they had already gone through one battle, this one only lasted for an hour.
Ye Ling lay on his back, immersed in the legendary "sage mode."
He felt a little troubled. âThis Little Fox Demon, Ning Ruoxi, is getting harder and harder to handle!â
âIs Brother Ling finally about to experience the suffering of married men?â
"Iâm hungry!"
Ning Ruoxi murmured in a sweet, delicate voice, lying in Ye Lingâs arms.
"Okay, Iâll order some takeout for you. What do you want to eat?" Ye Ling sighed, a bit resigned.
"Something light, maybe? Seafood?" Ning Ruoxi said casually.
"Sure," Ye Ling replied, then ordered two boiled hairy crabs and a few mantis shrimp from an app.
"Weâve been having late-night snacks every day. Iâm going to get fat."
While Ye Ling was ordering, Ning Ruoxi couldnât help but pout and complain.
"Get fat?"
Ye Ling raised an eyebrow and teased, "How could you possibly get fat? Weâre getting plenty of exercise!"
"What exercise have I gotten these past few days?"
Ning Ruoxi instinctively rolled her eyes, but in the next moment, she realized what he meant. Her pretty face flushed red. "Pervert!"
"The experts say so!"
Ye Ling righteously retorted.
âHow could Brother Ling be slandered?â
Ye Ling opened his browser, did a search on Baidu, and then showed the results to Ning Ruoxi.
According to Baidu, during the great battle between a Fox Demon and a Righteous Giant, all the muscles in the body are exercised, especially those in the abdomen and pelvis. Furthermore, due to exceptionally active endocrine secretion, the rate of fat consumption is even higher!
Therefore, Ye Ling wasnât wrong. It was indeed a lot of exercise.
"Pervert!"
Ning Ruoxi glanced at it, her face turning an even deeper shade of red as she spat out the word.
âWhat in the world?â
âSomeone actually went online to search for something like this?â
"Alright, letâs go take a shower first. The food will be here soon." As Ye Ling spoke, without waiting for Ning Ruoxiâs reply, he swept her up and dashed into the bathroom.
...
Normally, a shower would take twenty minutes at most, but this time, it took a full forty minutes.
When Ning Ruoxi came out of the bathroom, her face was still flushed.
"Iâm never showering with you again."
Ning Ruoxi glared at Ye Ling, furious.
Thatâs right.
She had been ravaged by Ye Ling once again!
At first, she had wanted to refuse, but that guy Ye Ling had persuaded her from multiple angles, including economics and environmental protection, finally even using the old cliché about conserving water...
Ning Ruoxi couldnât hold out against him and finally agreed after his solemn promise.
But...
âHow trustworthy is a scumbagâs promise?â
âBasically zero!â
"Hehe, it wonât happen next time. Trust me."
Ye Ling rubbed his nose and gave a sly laugh.
"Hmph!"
Ning Ruoxi snorted delicately and ignored Ye Ling.
Just then, the late-night snack Ye Ling had ordered arrived. There were two especially large hairy crabs, one of which was estimated to be at least four jin!
"Come and eat."
Ye Ling beckoned to Ning Ruoxi while cracking open a crab shell.
After three consecutive great battles, Ning Ruoxi was genuinely hungry. She pouted and sat down next to Ye Ling.
"Here, open your mouth."
Ye Ling finished preparing the crab meat and brought it to Ning Ruoxiâs lips.
At times like this, we have to praise our Brother Ling. He really was a competent boyfriend!
At the very least, whenever he was around, Ning Ruoxi never had to shell her own crabs.
"Hmph, hmph!"
Enjoying the delicious food Ye Ling had prepared, Ning Ruoxi hummed comfortably.
âOh, whatever!â
âSince heâs feeding me, I guess Iâll forgive him for now, right?â
Probably because she was truly famished, Ning Ruoxi ate the entire crab that weighed over four jin, and followed it up with two mantis shrimp.
"Iâm full."
Ning Ruoxi licked her lips contentedly and patted her small belly.
"Okay."
Ye Ling nodded and only then started on his own hairy crab.
After finishing the crab meat, Ye Ling ate the remaining mantis shrimp and immediately felt his stamina recover significantly.
âSystem, open the advanced gift pack.â
Ye Ling suddenly remembered the gift pack he had received earlier but hadnât opened yet, so he chanted silently in his mind.
âDING!â
âCongratulations, Host, for successfully opening the advanced gift pack. You have obtained the talentâ"Body of the True Dragon"!â
âIn the process of a Righteous Giant suppressing a Fox Demon, one will naturally encounter countless difficulties. The Hostâs unceasing struggle against the Fox Demon for the sake of all living things is truly commendable!â
âThe Body of the True Dragon can greatly accelerate the Righteous Giantâs physical recovery, helping the Host to vanquish the Fox Demon sooner!â
Hearing the prompt in his mind, Ye Ling was stunned.
âWhat the...â
âThis... this... this!â
âDoes the system actually know what Iâm thinking?â
Not long ago, Ye Ling had thought of a similar reward, and just today he had been troubled by Ning Ruoxiâs rising combat power. And now it had given him a solution!
âAs expected of the check-in system. Thumbs-up!â
Just as Ye Ling was about to find Ning Ruoxi to put his new ability to the test, he discovered she was already fast asleep on the bed.
"This girl... sheâs acting more and more like a child."
Ye Ling couldnât help but sigh softly and gave up on the idea of testing it out.
