"What the heck! Is this for real?"
After listening to Mo Chaoge's brief account, Ye Ming was at a loss for words to describe his feelings.
It was absolutely insane.
"Sigh! To avoid the trouble caused by the God of Song, I spent nearly a month in the library!" Mo Chaoge said with great helplessness.
At that time, when Zhong Wunian realized that the God of Song he founded was causing Mo Chaoge a lot of distress, he even traveled from the men's dormitory building to Mo Chaoge's dormitory building in a "three steps and nine kowtows" manner to apologize in person.
And he stood under the scorching sun for a whole day to atone for his sins!
His insane act shocked the entire province at the time. Zhong Wunian's mother, Li Zhirou, also personally came to the school and met with Mo Chaoge.
Just when everyone thought Mo Chaoge would be ostracized by the Zhong family because of this, Li Zhirou made an announcement in front of everyone.
That is: Mo Chaoge would forever be a distinguished guest of the Zhong family.
As soon as this news broke, the entire province was in an uproar.
During that period, Mo Chaoge became the hot topic of everyone's after-dinner conversation.
It wasn't until a month later that the storm gradually subsided.
Although the God of Song founded by Zhong Wunian still existed, a strict rule was added:
Unless personally summoned by Mo Chaoge, no member of the God of Song could appear before her at will.
This included Zhong Wunian himself.
Since then, Mo Chaoge had finally escaped the disturbances of the God of Song.
Learning about these events, Ye Ming's head buzzed again.
Mo Chaoge's status in the provincial capital was truly far beyond his expectations.
"You... are really amazing!"
Finally, Ye Ming gave a simple and unadorned evaluation.
"It is precisely because of this that I needed so much time to draw that period to a close!" Mo Chaoge sighed deeply.
"Alright!" Ye Ming looked Mo Chaoge up and down, shaking his head and smiling, "I only now realize that the more I get to know you, the more surprises you bring me!"
"Oh! Is that so?" Mo Chaoge pursed her lips and smiled, "We are birds of a feather!"
In Mo Chaoge's eyes, everything Ye Ming had shown was also a "surprise"!
"Okay! I have to go now!"
After chatting for so long, it was time for them to really say goodbye.
"Our hug was interrupted just now, shall we do it again?"
Ye Ming opened his arms and smiled faintly.
"Sure!"
Mo Chaoge didn't feel awkward and naturally hugged him.
This hug lasted for three to four seconds.
At this moment, perhaps both of them were thinking about the same thing.
For example: the next meeting!
"As a farewell gift, take this!"
Releasing Mo Chaoge, Ye Ming took out a peculiar necklace. A gemstone with a dull luster was inlaid on the pendant.
"What is this?"
Looking at the item in his hand, Mo Chaoge knew immediately that this necklace was no ordinary object.
"As long as you wear it, no one can harm you!" Ye Ming said with a smile.
"So powerful?" Mo Chaoge was somewhat surprised.
"Of course! But there's a limit on the number of times! After it blocks three attacks for you, it will just be an ordinary necklace." As he spoke, Ye Ming continued, "But you can rest assured, if it reaches a point where it can no longer be used, I will be able to sense it immediately. As long as you are wearing it, I can appear by your side."
"Oh!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Chaoge's lips curled up, a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes, and she said, "Protecting me so well, you don't have some ulterior motive, do you!"
"??"
Seeing Mo Chaoge's expression, Ye Ming's body trembled slightly. But as a seasoned veteran, how could he be flustered?
"Of course I have ulterior motives for you!" Ye Ming boldly admitted, staring at Mo Chaoge with fiery eyes, full of aggression. Then he smiled sinisterly and said, "Consider this my betrothal gift. Do you dare to accept it?"
Betrothal gift!
Good heavens! As expected of Master Ye!
"A betrothal gift, huh! Then I'll have to think about it carefully!"
Facing Ye Ming's burning gaze, Mo Chaoge paid no attention. She stared at the necklace for a long time, then said, "Since it's a betrothal gift, shouldn't I also give you something!"
"Ah! This... theoretically, that's true!"
Ye Ming was stunned by Mo Chaoge's words again.
Now he realized that in his conversations with Mo Chaoge, it was becoming increasingly difficult for him to take the lead.
He had intended to tease Mo Chaoge with a joke, but in the end, he was caught off guard.
"Here! This is for you!"
At this moment, Mo Chaoge suddenly took out a small red ball.
After handing it to Ye Ming, Mo Chaoge turned and walked towards her dormitory building, giving him no chance to react.
Ye Ming stared at the red ball in his hand, then looked up at Mo Chaoge's retreating back and chuckled:
"What an interesting woman!"
Then, he slowly walked away.
As Mo Chaoge was about to exit the small path, she looked back:
"I look forward to our next meeting!"
...
Since Mo Chaoge's matter had come to an end, Ye Ming planned to return to the Du family first. If everything went smoothly, he might even be able to return to Minghai City today.
On the way back to the Du family, Ye Ming kept staring at the red ball in his hand. After studying it for so long, he couldn't figure out what it was.
Finally, he had no choice but to use some "unconventional methods" to understand the secret contained within the red ball.
In fact, it was just an ordinary "chili powder ball."
As long as it was smashed hard on the ground, it could instantly release a large amount of chili powder. This kind of small item was usually used as a self-defense tool for girls.
Mo Chaoge had also used it to escape from the two thugs before.
"To actually give me such a small item!"
After figuring it out, Ye Ming felt a mix of amusement and helplessness.
Was Mo Chaoge hinting at something?
Giving him a girl's self-defense tool, wasn't that implying something?
Even so, Ye Ming still kept it.
As he passed by an open space, he observed his surroundings. Seeing no idlers, he stopped.
"This place is very suitable for murder and arson. Aren't you going to make a move?"
Ye Ming suddenly spoke.
In fact, as soon as he left the provincial university, Ye Ming had noticed that someone was secretly following him.
As for who sent them, one could guess with their toes.
"You do have some awareness!"
At this moment, a young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses appeared before Ye Ming, followed by a group of people.
The people behind him were all ancient martial artists.
The person who came was none other than Zhong Wunian.
