Wedding ceremony tomorrow

Chapter 105 Like

The temperature plummeted the following day.

The ground in the courtyard and the flower bushes in the corner were covered with snow-white frost.

The air also carried a frozen feeling.

When Luo Qingfeng woke up, there was no one beside him.

Nightingale was already up and making breakfast in the kitchen; the enticing aroma of pancakes wafted from there.

Luo Qingfeng lay in bed for a while, savoring the wonderful experience of the previous night, before getting dressed and getting out of bed.

Open the window, and a cold wind rushes in.

In the small courtyard, Aya was squatting alone in a corner, staring blankly at the flowers covered with white frost.

At this time of year, chrysanthemums are still in full bloom.

Luo Qingfeng walked out.

When Aya heard the sound, she turned her head to look at him, then immediately turned her head back to continue looking at the flowers in front of her.

Luo Qingfeng went straight to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, only Nightingale was making pancakes filled with the aroma of scallions.

Seeing him enter, Nightingale's face showed a hint of unease, but she quickly concealed it and smiled, "Did you sleep well last night?"

Luo Qingfeng's expression was somewhat unnatural as he said, "It's fine."

Nightingale continued making pancakes with her head down, a smile playing on her lips, and said nothing more.

Luo Qingfeng walked to the stove and sat down.

Just as I was about to add more firewood to her fire, Nightingale quickly said, "Don't add any more firewood. We need a small fire, or it will burn."

Luo Qingfeng put down the firewood, glanced at her beautiful face again, and hesitated before speaking.

Nightingale bent down and flipped the pancakes in the pan. After a moment of silence, she suddenly looked up and asked, "By the way, do you prefer me wearing socks or not?"

Luo Qingfeng: "..."

Nightingale gave him a half-smile and nodded, saying, "Oh, I understand, I like them both."

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name 1110 ...

"Cough cough..."

Luo Qingfeng bent down to add firewood and pointed to the doorway.

Ayak had arrived at the door without anyone noticing.

Nightingale replied nonchalantly, "I told you not to add firewood, but you want some burnt pancakes again?"

As he spoke, he flipped the pancake in the pan over again, then rubbed it along the edge of the pan a few times with a spatula before scooping it out.

Luo Qingfeng quickly took out the wood he had just added and rubbed it on the ground to extinguish it.

Nightingale said with a smile, "Alright, let's eat."

Luo Qingfeng got up and walked out of the kitchen. After a quick wash, just as he was about to enter the kitchen, he suddenly saw his grandmother standing by the bed through the corridor window, examining a piece of white cloth.

"..."

He hurried into the kitchen and whispered, "Grandma is in the room."

The nightingale was taken aback by this and asked, "What's wrong?"

Luo Qingfeng did not speak again.

Seeing that his expression was off, Nightingale took off her apron, walked out of the kitchen, looked through the window, blushed, and quickly ran into the room.

"Grandma, what are you doing?"

The old man sighed and said, "Weren't you sleeping together? How come..."

Nightingale blushed and stammered, "We...we just slept together, we didn't do anything else..."

The old man whispered, "Is Ah Feng... sick?"

nightingale:"……"

The old woman sighed again and said, "Forget it, Grandma doesn't want to get involved in your affairs anymore. When you get old, you can't help it even if you want to.

With that, he put down the white cloth and left the room.

Nightingale looked up and saw Luo Qingfeng watching her from outside the window. She hurriedly blushed and stuffed the white sheet on the bed under her pillow.

This white cloth was hidden under the pillow all night.

It's getting late.

The two of them each took a steaming, fragrant pancake and went out to the Demon Suppression Temple.

Luo Qingfeng took a bite of the pancake and said, "It smells so good. Sister Nightingale's cooking is really good."

The nightingale rolled her eyes at him and said nothing.

Luo Qingfeng then asked, "By the way, the merit points shouldn't be a problem, right?"

The nightingale snorted and still ignored him.

Luo Qingfeng sensed a hint of resentment in her eyes and asked, "Is Sister Nightingale angry?"

"snort!"

Nightingale immediately strode ahead with her long legs, her ponytail swaying from side to side behind her, as if expressing her dissatisfaction.

Luo Qingfeng followed behind, and as they were almost out of the alley, he spoke up, "Sister Nightingale, how about we go to the Ningguo Mansion tonight?"

Nightingale paused, turned to look at him, and asked, "What are you going to the Ningguo Mansion for?"

Luo Qingfeng walked up to her, reached out, and gently took her cold little hand in his. Looking at her pretty face, he said, "It's not very convenient at home, since Grandma and Aya are there, and this is your...first time. So I thought..."

Two blushes immediately rose on Nightingale's cheeks. She pulled her hand away and said, "No!"

After saying that, her cheeks flushed, she walked quickly ahead.

If a girl says no with a cold face, she really means no. But if a girl says no when she's shy, it means she wants it.

Luo Qingfeng caught up with her and walked alongside her, whispering, "Then it's a deal. We'll both receive rewards today, so let's celebrate."

The nightingale pretended not to hear and quickened her pace.

Luo Qingfeng didn't say anything more.

As they parted ways at the main gate of the Demon Suppression Academy, Luo Qingfeng asked, "Will the results be out by noon?"

He was asking about the outcome of the reward.

Nightingale glanced at him and said, "I should. Wait for me on the bridge over the Green Lake."

Luo Qingfeng nodded and said, "Mm."

Nightingale didn't say anything more and quickly entered the South Courtyard. Her tall and slender figure, exuding the youthful and lively aura of a young girl, strode briskly under the big tree, her ponytail bouncing lightly behind her, as if reflecting her suddenly improved mood.

Luo Qingfeng stood at the door until her figure disappeared before entering the North Courtyard.

He went straight to the library.

Grandma Ning was still dozing in the corner by the door, and seemed a little surprised when he came in.

Luo Qingfeng quickly asked, "Grandma, where is that swindler?"

Upon hearing this, Granny Ning's face darkened, and she glared at him, about to erupt in anger. Suddenly, she realized that the swindler he was referring to was probably not her young mistress, and immediately said coldly, "What do you think?"

Luo Qingfeng asked expectantly, "Did Grandma go to see him last night?"

Granny Ning said calmly, "Of course I went to look for it."

Luo Qingfeng quickly asked, "And then?"

Granny Ning snorted coldly and said, "What could happen then? Anyone who dares to lie to my young lady has only one way out: death! I'll slap him and knock his head off."

Luo Qingfeng: "..."

"Um...where's the gold? Is Grandma coming back?"

Granny Ning looked at him as if he were a fool, and said, "That swindler's gold is all fake. My young lady has already been fooled once. Do you want to ruin my reputation in my old age and be fooled again? I'll slap him to death, and that'll settle the score. What use would I have for his fake gold?"

Luo Qingfeng immediately said anxiously, "Then...then..."

"What? If you have something to say, go talk to the young lady upstairs. Don't disturb my sleep!"

Grandma Ning glared at him, then closed her eyes again.

Helpless, Luo Qingfeng had no choice but to quickly go upstairs.

When he reached the fifth floor, he didn't see Senior White. Just as he was getting anxious, a familiar yet cool voice came from upstairs: "Come on up."

Luo Qingfeng hurriedly went up to the sixth floor.

Upstairs, there were no bookshelves, the floor was covered with a snow-white velvet carpet, and there was a table and a soft couch in front of the window.

At this moment, Bai Ruofei was dressed in a plain white robe, sitting at the table quietly reading a book. Her demeanor remained noble and full of charm that made her seem untouchable.

This was the first time Luo Qingfeng had seen her wearing clothes of a different color.

Wearing this plain white robe, bathed in the golden morning sun, her skin appeared even more flawless, her black hair flowing like a waterfall, her beauty as exquisite as a painting. Beneath the hem of her skirt, a pair of slender, delicate feet clad in snow-white stockings were partially concealed, adding to the overall allure.

Luo Qingfeng thought to himself: Such a beautiful and noble woman, how could someone be deceived? That person truly deserved to die! He deserved to be slapped to death by Granny Ning!

He walked over, bowed, and said, "Senior Bai."

Bai Ruofei flipped through her book, not even glancing at him, and said indifferently, "Aren't you going to do the mission?"

Luo Qingfeng looked embarrassed and said, "I had nothing to do this morning, so I came here to be at Senior Bai's beck and call."

Bai Ruofei looked up at him and said, "You really will let me command you?"

Luo Qingfeng nodded sincerely and said, "Of course it's true. It is a great honor for me to be at Senior Bai's beck and call."

He first flattered her, then revealed his true purpose: "Um, Senior Bai, about the gold you promised me..."

Bai Ruofei frowned slightly and asked, "What about the gold?"

Luo Qingfeng was taken aback, and quickly said, "Senior Bai, you promised me that I would come over every afternoon to write for you, and in return, you would give me a piece of gold every day."

Bai Ruofei said calmly, "Oh, I remember."

Luo Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then..."

Bai Ruofei said, "I don't have it right now, I'll owe you for now."

Luo Qingfeng: "...Then, when will Senior Bai have it?"

Bai Ruofei continued flipping through the book with her head down, and said indifferently, "I don't know."

Luo Qingfeng was immediately unhappy.

Silence fell over the room.

After a long pause, Bai Ruofei looked up at him and asked, "Should I kneel down?"

Luo Qingfeng glanced at the seat next to her, then had no choice but to sit down and asked, "Senior Bai, do you really not have any other gold or silver?"

Bai Ruofei said, "No."

Luo Qingfeng did not speak again.

Bai Ruofei pushed the book she hadn't finished writing yesterday in front of him without saying a word. Then, she took the inkstone and ink stick in front of her, preparing to grind the ink.

Luo Qingfeng finally couldn't help but say, "Senior Bai, you should at least give me a deadline. I'm penniless right now and need the money."

Bai Ruofei frowned slightly and looked at him, saying, "Vulgar."

Luo Qingfeng replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, "For a great figure like Senior Bai, discussing money is indeed vulgar, but I am at a crucial moment in my cultivation and need to buy meat to replenish my energy. I cannot do without money."

Bai Ruofei stared at him for a while, then said, "Do you think someone like me would be without vulgar things like you?"

Luo Qingfeng said, "Of course not, it's just... I do need it right now."

Bai Ruofei snorted, seemingly a little impatient. After a pause, she said, "Tonight I'll have Granny Ning go back to the manor and ask for a few packets of gold. I'll give them to you tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Luo Qingfeng was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Senior Bai."

Bai Ruofei ignored him and held the black ink stick in her slender, snow-white hands, carefully grinding the ink.

Luo Qingfeng glanced at it, opened the book, and was about to read it seriously when his foot suddenly touched something.

He quickly moved it away and couldn't help but glance down at it.

"Do you want to lie down and take a look?"

Bai Ruofei suddenly said calmly.

Luo Qingfeng looked confused and asked, "What? What are you looking at by lying down?"

Bai Ruofei snorted coldly, and suddenly stepped on his foot from under the table.

Luo Qingfeng froze, not daring to speak again.

"Huh? The 'Thousand Illusions Disguise Technique' at the back seems to be an internal energy cultivation method... This internal energy cultivation method also seems to have the effect of concealing one's breath and holding one's breath."

Luo Qingfeng read it carefully again before spreading out the Xuan paper, picking up his brush, dipping it in ink, and beginning to write.

Bai Ruofei was grinding ink with her delicate hands, the inkstone making a hissing sound.

She seemed to think her voice was a bit loud, so she lowered it slightly. Seeing that he was writing diligently, she lowered it even further.

The ink turned out too light.

Luo Qingfeng finished writing with a few strokes, then frowned slightly and said, "Senior Bai, grind it a little harder. It's all water inside, no juice. How can I write on it?"

Bai Ruofei frowned slightly, looking at him and saying, "Are you ordering me around?"

Luo Qingfeng exchanged a glance with her, and could only say again, "Senior Bai, the ink is too thin. Could you please use your noble hands and apply some force to help me grind it to be thicker?"

Bai Ruofei didn't speak again, but gripped the inkstone tightly with her delicate hand, increasing the pressure slightly.

Luo Qingfeng inwardly complained, waited a moment, then picked up his brush, dipped it in ink, and continued writing.

Until noon.

The remaining half of "The Art of Disguise" has finally been copied.

At the same time, he silently memorized it.

"Looks good. I'll try cultivating it when I get back; maybe I can succeed."

He put down his brush, blew on the ink stains on the rice paper, and pondered silently.

After the ink had dried, he glanced out the window and, remembering that he had to see Sister Nightingale later, quickly got up to say goodbye, "Senior Bai, then I'll be leaving now. I won't be coming this afternoon."

Bai Ruofei glanced at the words on the table and said calmly, "And tonight?"

Luo Qingfeng said, "I have other matters to attend to tonight."

Bai Ruofei looked up at him and asked, "What is it?"

Luo Qingfeng was speechless for a moment, and could only say, "Some personal matters."

Bai Ruofei then asked, "What private matter?"

Luo Qingfeng was speechless for a moment, then said, "It's some family matters."

Bai Ruofei stared at him coldly for a while before letting out a snort and continuing to look down at the contents of the paper, ignoring him completely.

Luo Qingfeng originally wanted to remind her not to forget to ask Granny Ning to go home and get the gold, but seeing that she seemed unwilling to talk anymore, he could only bow and take his leave.

When he got downstairs, he said directly to Granny Ning, "Granny, Senior Bai just said that you should go back to the mansion tonight and bring over a few bags of gold, real gold."

Grandma Ning kept her eyes closed, as if she were already asleep, and ignored him.

Luo Qingfeng glanced at her again, but didn't dare to disturb her any further, and went straight out the door.

Anyway, Senior White will tell her.

After he walked away, Granny Ning slowly opened her eyes, sighed, and said, "That silly boy, he'll probably really be fooled into crying by Miss... Sigh, I'd better go up and try to persuade Miss."

With that, she got up and went upstairs.

"What? Miss, is what you're saying true? That brat actually dirtied your noble and private feet? Heavens! That little lecher is incredibly audacious! What exactly did he do to your noble feet? Let me see! Hmm? Miss, your white socks... seem clean..."

"Did he touch you with his calf? Humph! Damn it! That lecherous scoundrel, that filthy scoundrel, should be thoroughly deceived by you, kept deceiving him until he cries!"

The midday sun was exceptionally bright.

However, the wind blowing across the emerald lake still carried a chilling cold.

Luo Qingfeng walked onto the stone bridge and waited, his heart filled with anticipation for a bright tomorrow.

Senior Bai owes him three pieces of gold.

I heard that Senior Bai is the daughter of a wealthy family. If I send Granny Ning back tonight, we're sure we can get the gold.

He'll have gold tomorrow!

Moreover, he can go to the South Courtyard to collect his reward later, which should be quite a lot of money.

Then, Nightingale can be transferred to another hospital.

And tonight, he's taking Nightingale back to the Ningguo Mansion with him, and then...

Just as I was lost in thought, a tall and familiar figure suddenly appeared on the opposite side of the bridge.

Nightingale is here!
