Douluo Continent: Contract Goddess, Transforming the Mecha Girl World!

Chapter 86 The Strange Young Lady, A Girl's Heartache

(P.S.: Sorry everyone, this chapter got stuck in the review process last night and hasn't been released yet, so it's been delayed until now. I'll be updating normally today. Thanks everyone!)

A quiet night, a secluded wooden cabin~

Xiao Wu's face flushed, not understanding what was wrong?

Chen Shi looked embarrassed: "No, Xiao Wu, if this keeps up... my bed is going to collapse!"

The little girl was in high spirits when she suddenly complained, "This useless, broken bed! What am I supposed to do?"

Chen Shi had another bad idea.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Wu lay on Chen Shi, too exhausted to move, a look of happiness and contentment on her face.

Chen Shi pinched her still flushed cheeks: "Xiao Wu, we need to change the sheets again tomorrow~"

The little girl opened her eyes, blushing shyly: "You bad boy, let me wash up~"

The girl playfully pouted and silenced Chen Shi with a kiss. The two savored the sweetness, embracing each other as they drifted off to sleep...

The next morning.

Young Miss Ning Rongrong got up and looked around. Zhu Qing, who usually got up early to exercise, was no longer there, but Xiao Wu, who loved to stay in bed as much as she did, was also nowhere to be seen!

Rongrong was puzzled. After quickly washing up and getting dressed, she went to the cafeteria as soon as possible, but there was still no one there.

Her mind raced, and the young lady suddenly thought of a place—Chen Shi's dormitory!

Not far from the cabin, Ning Rongrong saw a girl squatting by the well, rubbing her hands together incessantly.

"Xiao Wu, I've finally found you! What are you doing here?"

The young lady rushed over in a few strides, and before she could even see clearly, she shouted.

"Rongrong? I'm washing Chen Shi's clothes and sheets~"

Xiao Wu turned around, her long hair tied into a scorpion braid and swung behind her. She pulled her sleeves up to her elbows, making it easier for her to work, and she looked neat and tidy.

Rongrong subconsciously looked down and saw that Xiaowu's basin was indeed filled with Chen Shi's clothes and bed sheets.

"Xiao Wu, have you always been the one washing Chen Shi's clothes?"

"Yeah, don't let that scoundrel's usual diligence fool you; I've been responsible for cleaning all his dirty clothes for years!"

Although washing clothes is tiring work, Xiao Wu's tone sounded like she was complaining, but the girl's face was full of smiles.

To paraphrase what the little rabbit once said, she's happy as long as what she does helps Chen Shi.

"Oh, right, you're here to see Chen Shi, right? He's doing his morning exercise in the woods over there, he should be done soon."

As soon as Xiao Wu finished speaking, Chen Shi walked out from the other side.

"Good morning, Rongrong, have you eaten?"

The young lady shook her head, and the young man smiled slightly: "Alright, let me take a shower and change my clothes, then we'll go together!"

"Xiao Wu, get me some dry clothes!" Chen Shi said, then carried a bucket of water into the house.

"Here it comes! Honestly, you change way too often!"

Xiao Wu muttered to herself, but still obediently took the clothes and put them inside.

Ning Rongrong watched Xiao Wu and Chen Shi interact. How could she describe the harmonious and natural feeling? It was just like an old married couple.

The young lady didn't quite understand, but she knew that her relationship with Chen Shi wasn't yet at the level that Xiao Wu had reached...

After waiting for a while, the three of them went to the cafeteria for breakfast together, but Rongrong didn't have much of an appetite for some reason.

Then began a day of lessons and training, during which the young lady would occasionally drift off into her own thoughts, her mind wandering elsewhere.

Throughout the day, Ning Rongrong's unusual behavior quickly caught the attention of Chen Shi and others.

"Chen Shi, what's wrong with Rongrong? She barely ate any dinner before going out."

Xiao Wu and Zhu Qing were also worried about their best friend.

"Don't worry, I'll go check on her. You guys go back first."

Chen Shi greeted the two women and, without using the Goddess Contract, headed straight for the stream behind the mountain.

Sure enough, a figure in a blue dress sat on a rock, looking up at the sky. The bright moonlight shone on her, adding to her beauty.

Chen Shi slowly walked over, without any surprise or a sneak attack, and quietly sat down beside her.

"What are you thinking about, my lady?"

Taking the girl's hand, Chen Shi looked at her and asked softly.

Rongrong turned her head to look at Chen Shi, but didn't reply. She simply rested her head on the boy's shoulder obediently.

Chen Shi didn't disturb her. The two leaned against each other in silence for a while before Rongrong spoke.

"Chen Shi, I envy Xiao Wu so much, I envy the relationship between you and her..."

"I've been thinking all day, if I were the one with you six years ago, could I have done what Xiaowu did?"

The girl's voice began to choke as she spoke: "But in the end, I realized I couldn't, I couldn't be as good as Xiao Wu!"

"Waaaaah~ Chen Shi, do you think I'm not good enough for you?"

"I don't have Zhu Qing's figure, nor Xiao Wu's attentive and comprehensive care. I'd just act like a spoiled young lady throwing a tantrum!"

Hearing Rongrong's heartbroken cries and seeing her tear-streaked face, Chen Shi admitted... his heart ached!

He never expected that Rongrong would expand her thinking and imagine so much from such a small detail in the morning!

However, Ning Rongrong is indeed blessed with a sensitive girlish heart and a young lady who falls in love early.

Chen Shi pulled the girl into his arms and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "Alright, don't cry. Who said Rongrong doesn't deserve to be with me?"

"I like you, that's the best reason, understand? Sweetie, no one can separate us~"

Chen Shi comforted her, and Rongrong's crying subsided, but she hadn't calmed down yet.

Seeing this, the boy had no choice but to use the right remedy and unleash his ultimate move!

"Rongrong, let me tell you a secret. Actually, Xiaowu wasn't like this six years ago. Back then, she couldn't do anything, let alone wash clothes or do housework."

"The sensible and caring Xiaowu you see today is the result of six years of change she made for me."

"Feelings are a process of gradual accumulation. You don't need to worry about the future because of the present. And I believe that Rongrong will definitely impress me by then, right?"

After she finished speaking, the crying stopped. After a moment of silence, Rongrong raised her head, her beautiful eyes reddening, looking pitiful and touching.

"Chen Shi, I understand. People are willing to change for you!"

"Our first date is a dinner party, so I'll learn to cook and make you delicious food every day, okay?"

Looking at the girl's serious expression, Chen Shi could almost see a series of culinary disasters rushing towards him...

Even though she had a bad feeling, Rongrong was in a positive state of mind, so how could Chen Shi possibly discourage her?

Chen Shi kissed the young lady and smiled, "Okay, I look forward to my darling Rongrong's feast!"
