Douluo: Martial Soul White Tiger, I am the White Emperor of Heaven

Chapter 464 Little Hamster Ning Rongrong
Hearing Dai Chengfeng's question, Ning Rongrong, munching on a small steamed bun, shook her head, "Waaah~"

"We'll talk about it later..."

At first, she tried her best to maintain a little composure, only sipping her porridge in small sips.

But when the first bun entered her mouth, the delicious broth bursting in her mouth, the soft dough and the substantial meat filling bringing unparalleled satisfaction, her last shred of reason was completely overwhelmed by hunger.

She started wolfing down her food, not caring that it was hot. She ate a bun, a mouthful of porridge, and occasionally a side dish, eating quickly and hurriedly...

Its cheeks were stuffed full, like a hamster.

She had lost all trace of the elegant demeanor of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's little princess; she was nothing more than a starving little girl.

Dai Chengfeng watched this scene, shook his head, and didn't ask any more questions.

I simply sat across from her, poured myself a cup of tea, and quietly watched her eat.

It's obvious she's really hungry...

Although Ning Rongrong is a bit spoiled at times, she is not a bad person at heart. At this moment, she has shed all her pretenses and shows a rare kind of authenticity and cuteness.

The slight frustration he felt due to the stagnation of his mental energy seemed to fade away somewhat in this lively and bustling scene.

Dai Chengfeng didn't remind her to eat slowly or make any other remarks. He simply acted as a quiet observer, providing her with a space where she could eat in peace.

Ning Rongrong only slowed down after she had devoured most of the food on the table. Her face regained its color, and she even broke out in a fine sweat from eating so fast.

She looked up and met Dai Chengfeng's calm gaze. Only then did she belatedly realize how "bold" her eating had been. Two more blushes rose to her cheeks, and she lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly, muttering under her breath:
"...It was so delicious, I couldn't resist."

Dai Chengfeng then spoke calmly, his voice steady: "It's good that you're full. The feeling of being hungry is unpleasant."

"Now you can tell me how to get to Wuhun City, right?"

All the emotions that had been suppressed by hunger now surged back into my heart as if they had been released from their restraints.

Therefore, upon hearing Dai Chengfeng's question, her large, glassy eyes immediately glared at him, filled with accusation.

"Humph!"

Ning Rongrong wrinkled her nose and began her "condemnation": "Dai Chengfeng! How dare you ask?"

Do you know how difficult and dangerous my journey has been?

Dai Chengfeng paused slightly in his teacup, looked up at her, and his face revealed just the right amount of confusion:
"Hard work? Dangerous? Rongrong, what makes you say that?"

Where should I begin?

Seeing his seemingly oblivious demeanor, Ning Rongrong became even more furious.

She leaned forward slightly, lowered her voice, but spoke rapidly, as if pouring out beans, "What did you say when you left Heaven Dou City?"

"You said you would write to me after you returned to Wuhun City and settled down!"

"They'd tell me what fun things to do and what delicious food to eat in Wuhun City! And what happened?"

"How long has it been? Not a single word! Not even a single utterance!"

She felt more and more aggrieved as she spoke: "I waited every day in the sect, and I didn't even have the heart to learn cultivation from Grandpa Jian. I was just thinking about when your letter would arrive."

"But we waited and waited, and it still didn't come!"

"You big liar! You broke your promise!"

Looking at the angry girl in front of him, Dai Chengfeng couldn't help but smile.

After returning to Wuhun City, he was indeed preoccupied with many trivial matters, especially the issue of cultivating the Wuhun Fusion Technique, which consumed most of his energy. Therefore, writing letters was naturally put aside.

When Ning Rongrong confronted him, he couldn't come up with any reason to refute her. He just found her accusatory manner somewhat endearing.

He was about to explain when Ning Rongrong gave him no chance. She changed the subject, her expression shifting from aggrieved and resentful to a smug and boastful one.

"However, I'm a magnanimous young lady, and I won't hold it against you!"

She raised her delicate chin, her eyes sparkling, "If you don't want to write to me, then I'll come find you myself!"

"How about that? Didn't expect that, did you? Surprised?"

Dai Chengfeng readily agreed, nodding in agreement, his tone tinged with surprise: "I really didn't expect that."

"The little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School actually managed to come to Martial Soul City, which is thousands of miles away, all by herself."

"Rongrong, you really are... I'm very impressed."

At this point, Dai Chengfeng paused, then feigned curiosity and asked the crucial question: "But why did the two seniors, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, feel comfortable letting you come out alone?"

"They treat you like a treasure."

Mentioning this, Ning Rongrong was even more proud, like a little mouse that had stolen some sesame oil.

She glanced around mysteriously, and although no one paid any attention, she still lowered her voice, with the excitement of sharing a major secret:
"Hehe, you didn't know that, did you?"

"I didn't get their permission to come out, I—sneaked out!"

"Sneaking away?"

Dai Chengfeng displayed a perfectly timed expression of "shock".

"Yes! We snuck out!"

Ning Rongrong nodded vigorously and began to vividly describe her "feat," saying, "You have no idea how difficult it was!"

"Grandpa Sword and Grandpa Bone are watching me very closely, especially after you left, it's practically 'airtight'!"

"But who is Ning Rongrong? I am the smartest little devil in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"

She began to talk at length about how she used her familiarity with the sect's terrain to cleverly avoid the patrolling disciples.

How to choose the "perfect moment" when both grandfathers are called in by the father to discuss matters.

How did he manage to break through the "multiple blockades" and slip out of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School with his agile skills and extraordinary wit?

"...Then, using the map and guidebook I had prepared beforehand, I hired a carriage and hurried along the way, finally arriving at Wuhun City!"

After Ning Rongrong finished speaking, she proudly puffed out her chest, her face clearly saying, "Praise me for being amazing."

Dai Chengfeng listened quietly, maintaining a gentle and slightly admiring smile on his face, but deep down he was clear-headed and even couldn't help but chuckle.

'Sneaked out? Little girl, you're too naive.'

Dai Chengfeng chuckled inwardly, his thoughts racing.

'Who is Sect Master Ning Fengzhi? And what are the cultivation levels of the two Title Douluos, Sword and Bone?'

"If they truly don't want you to leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, let alone a little girl like you at the Soul Venerable level, even a Soul King or Soul Emperor wouldn't be able to step out of the sect without alerting them."

'Especially since you're carrying travel expenses and...gifts that were clearly 'stolen' from Ning Fengzhi.'
