Douluo Continent: With my extraordinary comprehension, I want to be a salted fish.

Chapter 77 This little thing is so hard to coax!

Guangling hugged her and said softly, "I didn't lie to you, I really will return that contract of servitude to you."

As he spoke, he stuffed the contract of indenture into her hand, but he didn't take the gold soul coin.

He looked at her and asked, "I just want to hold you and talk to you for a while, is that okay?"

Xin Ya looked at the contract of sale in her hand and stopped struggling for the time being, but she looked up and glared at him angrily.

Guangling smiled and reached out to pinch her puffed-up little cheeks.

The little girl angrily slapped his big hand away.

Guangling stopped pinching her and looked at her, saying, "Don't run away anymore! I promise I won't catch you and take you back."

"Since you want to stay here, then stay. I'll come see you every now and then, okay?"

He thought, "I'll just go along with her for now, lest she run away again and I have to chase after her to the ends of the earth!"

The little girl snorted and didn't say anything.

Guangling continued, "Also, if you obtain another soul bone, don't sell it. After all, soul bones are quite rare, so it's better to keep it for yourself to absorb."

"If you're short of money, just tell me, and I'll give you some! I promise I really will, it's not a loan, and it won't require you to write an IOU or a contract of servitude. It's the kind of thing where I give you money and you don't have to pay it back in any way."

He made a point of emphasizing that it was really for her, so that she wouldn't disbelieve him, and also to show his sincerity in wanting her to forgive him.

Xin Ya scoffed, "Even if you really gave it to me, I wouldn't take it! I won't take your soul coins until I've forgiven you!"

Guangling tightened his grip on her, coaxing, "Then I'll beg you, okay?"

"No~"

Xin Ya turned her face away in a huff.

The little girl's deliberately stubborn expression made Guangling laugh.

Xin Ya glanced at him and smiled. Suddenly, she remembered that Qian Jun and Ning Rongrong had told her before that Guang Ling actually liked her, which was why he acted that way.

She looked at his current posture as he held her; it was a little too intimate!

The girl thought: Could it be... that he really likes me?

This arrogant, short-tempered, and disdainful Douluo powerhouse who always looks down on low-level Soul Masters, would actually like me?!

Xin Ya was a little incredulous!

Just as she was lost in thought, Guangling said, "By the way, there was someone with scorpion braids with you today, and it was a bit special."

Xin Ya knew he was referring to Xiao Wu. "You mean she's a soul beast in human form, right?"

"You know?!" Guangling was slightly surprised.

After thinking about it, it seemed reasonable that this little thing knew that the girl was a soul beast in human form, since all sorts of strange things had happened to it!

Xin Ya asked, "Since you recognized her as a 100,000-year-old soul beast today, why didn't you capture her?"

Guangling said, "That soul beast can't escape, but you can. If catching that soul beast alerts you, and you run away, where am I supposed to find you!"

Xin Ya snorted again and ignored him.

Guangling said, "Keep that soul beast for now. Since it's also enrolled in this academy, keep an eye on it."

"When you need a 100,000-year spirit ring, I'll catch it and make it for you, okay?"

The little girl scoffed, "I can catch it myself, you don't need to tell me what to do!"

Guangling smiled helplessly as she looked at her sulking expression.

"Think about what you want me to do for you to forgive you during this time!"

"Tell me when I come next time, and I promise I'll do it, okay?"

The little girl murmured softly, "I'll never forgive anyone!"

Hearing her whisper, Guangling sighed inwardly.

This little one is so hard to soothe!

He stood up and put her down, placing his large hand on her head and gently rubbing her little head. "I'm leaving now. Take care of yourself and eat well."

As he turned to leave after saying that, Xin Ya suddenly called out, "Wait a minute."

She walked up to him, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

"You...you...are you...?"

"Um?"

Guangling looked at her with a puzzled expression.

After thinking about it, Xin Ya still felt that it was impossible for him to like her; that arrogant guy just thought she was funny.

Moreover, he might be possessive and treat her as his possession!

The little girl shook her head to clear her mind, then looked up and said, "It's alright, you can go now." "Really alright?"

Guangling assured her, "You can tell me anything, and I will definitely do it."

Xin Ya regained her angry demeanor, pushing him away as she said, "I won't bother you even if I need something!"

Guangling grabbed her small hand and held it in hers, saying with a hint of displeasure, "If you don't come to me, who will you come to?"

"I'm looking for Qianjun, I'm looking for Jiangmo, but not you!" The little girl pulled her hand back, deliberately trying to provoke him.

Hearing about Qianjun was one thing, but then there was that Jiangmo guy too. Guangling's tone immediately turned sour. "Jiangmo doesn't know you."

"Then I'll go and show myself in front of him, so he'll recognize me!" Xin Ya retorted as she pushed him toward the windowsill.

She originally intended to push Guangling towards the door.

But think about it, if she lets him leave through the door, and someone else sees a man leaving her room, she won't be able to explain it!

So let him climb out the window!

Guangling wanted to say something, but found herself pushed to the window. "Why should I climb through the window?"

Xin Ya glanced at him. "You came in by climbing through the window, and now you're acting all high and mighty as you leave!"

"Get out of here! I don't want to talk to you! And don't come back next time, I don't want to see you!"

Seeing her angry expression, Guangling had no choice but to climb out the window and leave.

After Guangling left.

Xin Ya lay down on the bed and stared blankly at the ceiling.

She picked up the contract of indenture, opened it, and looked at it.

He discovered that below his name on the indenture, there were a few extra words: "My only and favorite little maid."

It was obvious that Guangling had written the words; she was momentarily stunned.

What did he mean by that?

The little girl's previously shared thoughts were now completely disrupted!

"what……"

Xin Ya yelled, "You annoying tsundere, you're so irritating!!!"

It was already dark outside. But she had absolutely no desire to eat.

"I'm not eating anymore, I'm going to sleep!"

After saying that, Xin Ya pulled the blanket over herself, intending to sleep soundly until the end of time.

……

into the night.

Flanders returned from his shop in Soto.

He had just entered the wooden cabin of the dean's office when Zhao Wuji arrived.

Zhao Wuji gave Flander a detailed account of the five students he had recruited that day, as well as their performance in the combat tests.

In particular, he talked about the girl Xin Ya.

Upon hearing this, Flander was both shocked and excited. "Level 42! Three ten-thousand-year spirit rings!! Such a genius has actually come to our academy; we've truly struck gold!"

Zhao Wuji also excitedly said, "Yes, and there's also Ning Rongrong, the little girl from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda."

Flanders smiled and said, "I received a letter from Sect Master Ning today. He hopes we can educate his daughter well."

Zhao Wuji laughed and said, "Absolutely no problem!"

Flander reached out and adjusted his slipped glasses. "Sect Leader Ning also mentioned Xin Ya in his letter. It seems that this young girl is also someone trained by their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

Zhao Wuji remembered that Xin Ya's martial spirit was a long sword.

He exclaimed with slight surprise, "Could it be that Xin Ya is the disciple of Chen Xin, the peak level 96 Douluo?!"

Just as he finished speaking, the wooden door to the office was suddenly flung open from the outside.

A man who was 1.9 meters tall and whose entire body was shrouded in a black cloak appeared at the door.

The man said in an unhappy tone, "My Xiaoya has absolutely no connection with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and she certainly can't be Chen Xin's disciple!!"

Have a great weekend, babies!
