"Thank you, Xiao Wu." Zhu Zhuqing stopped and gave Xiao Wu a grateful smile. "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known that Dai Mubai was such a disgusting person. Thank you for letting me see him for who he really is."

Although Zhu Zhuqing wore a grateful smile, Xiao Wu saw deep disappointment on her face.

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes revealed a faint sadness and sorrow; in fact, the corners of her eyes seemed slightly red and glistening with tears.

"Zhu... Zhu Zhuqing..." Xiao Wu trembled slightly.

She felt like she had really made a mistake. Not only had Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing completely fallen out, but the Shrek Seven Devils had also fallen apart, and even the strong Zhu Zhuqing had cried...

"It's nothing, I'm just naturally sad. I thought he had changed, but I didn't expect him to still be the same." Zhu Zhuqing wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said calmly.

"Alright, you two go back first. I want to be alone for a while," Zhu Zhuqing said slowly, taking a deep breath.

"We'll go with you," Xiao Wu said, looking at Zhu Zhuqing with concern.

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head and said, "No need, I just need some peace and quiet. You guys go back first."

“Alright.” Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong exchanged a glance, both seeing the helplessness and worry in each other’s eyes. Then, they both sighed and turned to leave.

Zhu Zhuqing watched the two leave before slowly closing her eyes, leaning against the tree, and then slowly sliding down to squat on the ground, tears streaming down her face.

Bai Qinchen had been following behind Zhu Zhuqing and the other two girls ever since they left the campus, secretly watching everything unfold.

This is exactly the result he wanted: Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai have completely broken up, and Zhu Zhuqing's heart is shattered at this moment.

He could take this opportunity to enter her heart, replace Dai Mubai, and help Zhu Zhuqing soothe her wounded soul.

As he thought about it, Bai Qinchen couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips into a smile.

"Zhu Zhuqing, what are you doing here?" Bai Qinchen pretended to bump into Zhu Zhuqing by chance, looking at her with a puzzled expression.

Upon hearing the voice, Zhu Zhuqing opened her moist eyes, looked up at Bai Qinchen, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said indifferently, "It's you."

"What's wrong? Are you crying?" Bai Qinchen deliberately moved closer to Zhu Zhuqing and asked in a concerned tone.

Zhu Zhuqing frowned, moved a few steps to the side to keep her distance from Bai Qinchen, and said calmly, "It's nothing, you must have misjudged."

Although her relationship with Dai Mubai has completely broken down, it doesn't mean she will open her heart to other men.

Bai Qinchen didn't pay any attention. He took out a tissue from his pocket and handed it to Zhu Zhuqing: "Maybe I saw wrong. You probably got something in your eyes. Wipe them clean."

"No need." Zhu Zhuqing did not reach out to take the tissue from Bai Qinchen, but said coldly, "Thank you, but I brought my own handkerchief."

As she spoke, she took out a handkerchief from her bosom and wiped her cheeks.

"Oh, in that case, I won't force you." Bai Qinchen shrugged and didn't say anything more.

The two sat there quietly, neither of them speaking.

After a long silence, Zhu Zhuqing was the first to break it.

"What are you doing here?" Zhu Zhuqing glanced at him and asked.

"I see you're all alone, so I'll keep you company!" Bai Qinchen smiled gently.

"Who asked you to accompany me?" Zhu Zhuqing glared at Bai Qinchen, stood up, and walked forward.

"Hey, hey, where are you going?"

"Leave me alone."

Bai Qinchen remained silent and continued to follow Zhu Zhuqing.

"Why are you following me?" Zhu Zhuqing stopped and turned to glare at him.

"It's nothing, I just saw you were in a bad mood and was afraid you'd do something foolish, so I followed you," Bai Qinchen said with a smile.

"I'm going back to the academy."

"Oh, that's convenient, I'm going back to school too," Bai Qinchen said with a smile.

Upon hearing Bai Qinchen's words, Zhu Zhuqing quickly turned her head and walked in another direction.

Seeing this, Bai Qinchen continued to follow.

"Didn't you say you were going back to school too?" Zhu Zhuqing frowned and said coldly.

"Before I said that, I was afraid you would do something foolish and follow me," Bai Qinchen said with a gentle smile.

"I don't need you to follow me," Zhu Zhuqing said indifferently, quickening her pace as if trying to shake off Bai Qinchen.

However, Bai Qinchen stubbornly followed after him.

"Aren't you annoying?!" Zhu Zhuqing suddenly stopped and turned around abruptly, staring coldly at Bai Qinchen. "I'm warning you, don't follow me anymore, or don't blame me for being impolite."

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes were cold and sharp, as if they wanted to pierce Bai Qinchen's chest.

But Bai Qinchen was not afraid at all and still looked at her with a smile.

"Hmph!" Zhu Zhuqing snorted coldly, her eyes narrowed, and she instantly unleashed a powerful killing intent. She transformed into a gust of wind and rushed towards Bai Qinchen, swinging her right fist and slamming it hard into his abdomen.

"Ugh~" Bai Qinchen was hit in the stomach, let out a muffled groan, and a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

He clutched his stomach, gasping for breath in pain.

"Why didn't you dodge?" Zhu Zhuqing was stunned when she saw that Bai Qinchen hadn't dodged at all and had taken a heavy punch from her.

Bai Qinchen smiled, stretched out his arms, hugged Zhu Zhuqing's slender waist, and pulled her into his embrace.

"What are you doing? Let me go!" Zhu Zhuqing struggled, trying to push Bai Qinchen away, but Bai Qinchen's words made Zhu Zhuqing freeze in place.

"Does this make you feel better?" Bai Qinchen's gentle voice rang in her ears, making Zhu Zhuqing feel dazed.

The reason she was dazed was that the punch she had just received had indeed dissipated a lot of her anger, but she didn't understand why Bai Qinchen would do such a thing.

Another reason is that when she was held in Bai Qinchen's arms, the Heart-wrenching Hand technique also took effect.

Bai Qinchen could have forcibly embraced Zhu Zhuqing and used the Ecstasy Hand technique earlier, but the consequence of doing so might have been that Zhu Zhuqing, in a state of extreme anger, would launch a frenzied attack on Bai Qinchen.

Therefore, Bai Qinchen chose to take the punch head-on to extinguish the anger in Zhu Zhuqing's heart. Combined with the Ecstasy Hand, this would lower Zhu Zhuqing's psychological defenses to the minimum.

Chapter 13 Zhu Zhuqing's Heartbeat

"Why did you do this?" Zhu Zhuqing was quietly held in Bai Qinchen's arms, and it took her a long time to ask.

"I can feel that you are very sad," Bai Qinchen said softly, holding Zhu Zhuqing tightly around the waist.

"What do I have to do with you..."

"Just cry if you want to. You'll feel much better after you cry it out." Zhu Zhuqing was about to retort when Bai Qinchen interrupted her.

"Why should I cry? I... I didn't..." Zhu Zhuqing bit her red lips, stubbornly refusing to admit it, but tears still streamed down her face.

She was already crying before Bai Qinchen arrived, but his appearance forced her to hold it back, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

Now, Bai Qinchen's gentle voice shattered the softest defenses in her heart, making her unable to hold back any longer and shedding tears.

"Cry, cry, let out all the sadness and grievances in your heart," Bai Qinchen said softly, patting Zhu Zhuqing's back.

"Woooo ...

Finally, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't hold back and burst into loud sobs.

"Why, why did he do that!" Zhu Zhuqing's fists kept landing on Bai Qinchen's body, pounding and venting all her emotions.

Bai Qinchen naturally knew why Zhu Zhuqing was so heartbroken. He let Zhu Zhuqing hit and scold him without any resistance, letting her vent her sadness and grievances to her heart's content.

I don't know how much time passed, but Zhu Zhuqing was tired, had cried enough, and her emotions had stabilized.

"Thank you, thank you..." Zhu Zhuqing wiped away the remaining tears on her face and said, her voice choked with emotion.

"You feel much better now, don't you?" Bai Qinchen asked softly.

Zhu Zhuqing nodded.

"Is the person who hurt you Dai Mubai, the eldest brother?" Bai Qinchen suddenly asked.

Zhu Zhuqing was slightly taken aback, but still nodded gently.

"What did he do to make you so sad?" Bai Qinchen asked knowingly.

“He went to brothels to find women, and I caught him red-handed, but he still wouldn’t stop,” Zhu Zhuqing said slowly, sniffing.

Because of that cry, she completely opened her heart to Bai Qinchen and was willing to tell him about her troubles.

"What?! He actually did such a thing?! I'm going to find him!" Bai Qinchen looked indignant and made a move to go find Dai Mubai to seek justice for Zhu Zhuqing.

"No, don't go!" Zhu Zhuqing quickly hugged Bai Qinchen and shook her head.

Bai Qinchen looked at her with a puzzled expression.

"I have nothing to do with him anymore. Let him do whatever he wants if he wants to," Zhu Zhuqing said calmly, taking a deep breath.

“But he actually made you so sad and upset, I have to teach him a lesson,” Bai Qinchen insisted.

However, Zhu Zhuqing clung tightly to Bai Qinchen's body, refusing to let go no matter what.

"He has already made you so sad and upset, are you still going to defend him?" Bai Qinchen asked softly.

"I just feel it's unnecessary." Zhu Zhuqing gently shook her head.

"why?"

"Then why did you stand up for me?" Zhu Zhuqing asked softly, her beautiful eyes fixed on Bai Qinchen, as if trying to see through him.

“Because…” Bai Qinchen pursed his lips, hesitating to speak.

"Why?" Zhu Zhuqing continued to press.

"Actually, I fell in love with you the moment I saw you." Bai Qinchen remained silent for a long time before staring intently into Zhu Zhuqing's beautiful eyes and slowly speaking. His words surprised Zhu Zhuqing greatly.

"Are you... telling the truth?" Zhu Zhuqing blinked, somewhat bewildered.

"Mmm." Bai Qinchen responded, moving his head closer to Zhu Zhuqing, their faces almost touching.

"However, I heard that you and Dai Mubai are a couple, so I kept those thoughts to myself." Bai Qinchen said, a bitter smile appearing on his lips.

“If Dai Mubai loved you and cherished you, I wouldn’t say anything and would just wish you well from afar. But now that he’s done this to you, how could I possibly sit idly by?” Bai Qinchen stared intently at Zhu Zhuqing, his eyes filled with tenderness and adoration.

Zhu Zhuqing stared blankly at Bai Qinchen, her heart pounding wildly, her pretty face burning hot, even her ears turning crimson, and her breathing becoming rapid.

"Are you serious?" Zhu Zhuqing asked, her voice trembling.

“Of course.” Bai Qinchen’s eyes were burning.

"..." Zhu Er's face turned even redder.

For some reason, Bai Qinchen's words filled her with a sweet feeling.

Dai Mubai had said sweet words to her before, even more cheesy than Bai Qinchen, but she had never been so moved as she was today, as if her heart was about to burst out of her chest.

"So, I want to stand up for you, I want to teach Dai Mubai a lesson for you, because he hurt the one I love." Bai Qinchen said, enunciating each word clearly. After he finished speaking, Bai Qinchen cupped Zhu Zhuqing's delicate face in his hands, leaned down, and kissed her.

In that instant, Zhu Zhuqing was completely stunned and frozen in place.

She never imagined that her first kiss would be lost like this, not to Dai Mubai, whom she thought was her destiny, but to Bai Qinchen, whom she had only known for a few days and had only met a few times.

She did not resist Bai Qinchen's kiss; on the contrary, she inexplicably stuck out her tongue and intertwined it with Bai Qinchen's lips.

After a long while, Bai Qinchen reluctantly left Zhu Zhuqing's red lips, his eyes filled with burning love and infatuation as he looked at her.

Faced with Bai Qinchen's intense gaze, Zhu Zhuqing's heart trembled violently. She hurriedly avoided Bai Qinchen's gaze and dared not look at him again.

"Zhu Qing, I will take care of you for the rest of my life. I hope you can consider me." After a moment, Bai Qinchen withdrew his burning gaze, looked at Zhu Zhu Qing seriously, and said this heart-stirring confession.

"I...can you give me some time to think it over?" Zhu Zhuqing's voice was barely audible.

“I won’t force you to agree right now. I know you need time to process this,” Bai Qinchen chuckled. “I’ll give you time to think it over. Don’t rush to give me an answer. I look forward to your reply.”

Bai Qinchen was not in a hurry to win over Zhu Zhuqing. After all, the results after going through the process are the most exciting.

It's like playing football. If no one is defending or guarding the goal, the ball goes in, but it doesn't give people any excitement.

Only when the opponent defends desperately, and you break through their defense, and finally get past the goalkeeper and into the penalty area, can it be considered a wonderful, exhilarating, and exciting match.

Moreover, if they were to forcefully demand that Zhu Zhuqing agree now, it might backfire. After all, she had even refused Dai Mubai, so how could she possibly agree to him all at once?

Chapter 14 Giving Xiao Wu Medicine

Ever since Xiao Wu complained and Zhu Zhuqing caught them cheating, the atmosphere among the Shrek Seven Devils has become tense. Xiao Wu also felt somewhat guilty and her mood became increasingly depressed.

"What's wrong? Why are you so gloomy?" In the grove, Bai Qinchen saw Xiaowu looking worried and couldn't help but ask.

"It's nothing!" Xiao Wu forced a smile.

"Tell me honestly, I don't want to see you with a long face." Bai Qinchen held Xiaowu in his arms, gently stroking her soft hair, and said in a somewhat domineering tone.
