The demon master was beaten up

When she walked into her bedroom, she was stunned by the scene before her. The old, worn-out bed full of traces of time had disappeared, replaced by a brand new big bed with a soft mattress and crisp white sheets, making her feel extremely comfortable.

Next to the bed, there is an exquisite bedside table with a warm aromatherapy lamp on it.

The room also received a beautiful wardrobe and a spacious desk. These new pieces of furniture are not only beautifully designed but also highly practical. The wardrobe is spacious enough to hold all her clothes, while the desk is filled with various stationery and books for her study.

Bai Nini stood quietly in the middle of the room, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. Although these changes were insignificant, they made her feel Qin Nuo's deep love and care for her.

He used his actions to tell her: no matter what happened, this would always be her warm harbor, and he would always be there to support her silently.

Bai Nini bit her lower lip, took a deep breath, and resolutely walked out of the house. Without the slightest hesitation, she walked straight towards Grandma Yin's house.

Along the way, she passed a winding mountain path. Unlike before, this path seemed to have been repaired. The originally bumpy road surface was now paved with smooth stone slabs, making the walk less bumpy than before. This surprised Bai Nini a little, but she didn't pay much attention to it and continued to walk forward at a faster pace.

Finally, she arrived at Grandma Yin's door. Gently pushing it open, a familiar scent greeted her. Grandma Yin was quietly sitting in a rocking chair, eyes closed, seemingly dozing off. Curled up on a chair beside her was a cute little orange cat. Upon seeing Bai Nini enter, it immediately opened its eyes and happily ran towards her.

The little orange cat affectionately circled around Bai Nini's feet, meowing as if to welcome her. Then, it rubbed its soft fur and warm body against Bai Nini's legs to express its love for her.

Amidst the gentle meows of a cat, Granny Yin slowly opened her eyes and her gaze fell on Bai Nini. She smiled and waved to Bai Nini: "Nini, come here quickly!"

When Bai Nini heard the call, she immediately trotted to Grandma Yin, squatted down, and leaned gently against Grandma Yin.

Granny Yin gently stroked Bai Nini's hair and whispered, "The restaurant owner in town told the village chief that you would be back today. He went down the mountain to pick you up a long time ago. There's no signal in the mountains, so luckily we met this kind-hearted restaurant owner!"

Bai Nini raised her head and smiled brightly: "Grandma Yin, I really want to eat grandma's food!"

Granny Yin patted Bai Nini's hand gently and replied with a smile, "You're in for a treat today! The village chief sent over three fresh crucian carp this morning. I'll make you some grandma-style braised crucian carp for lunch! Let's have a taste of this delicious food, too."

Grandma Yin walked a little unsteadily, and Bai Nini held her hand tightly and walked into the kitchen together.

A brand new spice container sat on the wood stove, and the dishes and chopsticks were brand new. The original earthen stove had been re-tiled, giving it a clean, tidy appearance. A mountain of firewood and charcoal piled high in one corner of the kitchen added a touch of life to the space.

Bai Nini stared with eyes wide open, looking at all this in surprise. Seeing this, Granny Yin smiled and said to Bai Nini: "Nini, these things were arranged by Xiao Qin. I can see that he really cares about you!" Hearing this, Bai Nini couldn't help but feel touched.

She walked to the stove, lit the firewood, and sat quietly beside it, watching the fire burn. The blazing flames reflected her beautiful face, as if telling her deepest feelings.

Grandma Yin handled the crucian carp skillfully, chatting with Bai Nini while working.

Granny Yin had a kind smile on her face and asked softly, "Nini, did Xiao Qin make you unhappy?"

After hearing this, Bai Nini showed a trace of embarrassment on her face and quickly shook her head and said, "No!" The firelight under the stove reflected on her little face, making it difficult to tell whether her face was red because the fire was too strong or because of shyness.

Granny Yin looked at her with a smile in her eyes, and said slowly, "I think this Xiao Qin is pretty good, at least much better than Mo Yu! Granny, I have a very good eye for people! Although Mo Yu doesn't say it, you can tell from his eyes that he can't stay in this mountain. He doesn't like it here! But that Xiao Qin, his eyes are full of sincerity and kindness!"

Bai Nini tilted her head, carefully considering what Grandma Yin said, and then answered seriously: "Brother Mo Yu is indeed more worldly-wise! And Qin Nuo, well... he is more like a person with a pure heart!"

Granny Yin skillfully placed the prepared crucian carp into the pot, then slowly sat down beside Bai Nini, her slightly cloudy eyes gleaming with wisdom. Suddenly, she turned around and asked softly, "Nini, is Xiao Qin pursuing you?"

Bai Nini lowered her head slightly and gently added a piece of firewood to the earthen stove. Her voice was low and firm: "Mother-in-law, there's no way between us! His family...he already has a fiancée!"

Granny Yin sighed softly, her tone tinged with regret and understanding. "Nini, Xiao Qin told me that it was an engagement arranged by his grandfather. But he didn't like the girl. In this day and age, how can there be arranged marriages anymore?"

Bai Nini pursed her lips tightly, a hint of bitterness flashed in her eyes, and she slowly said, "Mother-in-law, you know, his family needs a daughter-in-law of equal status. And I am just an orphan with no one to rely on. Since this relationship is destined to have no result, why bother starting it?"

Granny Yin patted Bai Nini's shoulder gently, her eyes full of love and comfort: "Our Nini is the best! You are the pride of our mountain! You are not an orphan, you are our daughter and granddaughter! We are all your relatives!"

Hearing Grandma Yin's words, Bai Nini's face was filled with a happy smile. She nodded vigorously: "Yes! This is my home! When I graduate, I will come back here to teach our children in the mountains knowledge! Let them also have the opportunity to leave the mountains and see the outside world!"

Granny Yin stood up, put some grandma's vegetables into the pot, then turned to Bai Nini and said, "Although you can't be lovers, you can at least be friends, right? Nini, he has done so much for us in the mountains, we should be grateful to him. You should also thank him on behalf of all of us."

Bai Nini avoided Grandma Yin's gaze and said softly, "After dinner, I want to go up the mountain to see them..."

Granny Yin nodded and said softly, "I've already prepared incense, candles, money, and paper for you. You can go after dinner! But don't stay too late."
