The protagonist stole my spiritual root? Hey, heroine, give birth to me!

The three women immediately noticed this expression.

Sure enough, Zhai Ningning's expression instantly turned ugly, as if she had somehow connected the dots.

"You won't touch me? How are you going to heal my wounds then? Or do you think I'm unworthy to touch you?"

This doesn't mean Zhai Ningning thought Chen Xuan wasn't worthy of her; rather, Chen Xuan's expression clearly showed disdain, not inferiority.

This immediately angered the self-important young lady.

"Now! I demand that you heal me normally!" Zhai Ningning was furious and grabbed Chen Xuan by the collar.

"Ahem, no problem, no problem, that's not what I meant, you misunderstood... How about we let go of each other first?"

Chen Xuan thought that this arrogant young lady would turn around and leave to sulk if she was upset, but he never expected that she had something to vent about and was about to do it on the spot!

This was different from his original plan. He had simply wanted Zhai Ningning to accumulate more negative emotions so that he could take matters into his own hands and easily resolve the situation once a certain threshold was reached.

"Hmph, you think I'll just let go because you tell me to? Why should I listen to you?"

Chen Xuan didn't speak, but his eyes kept glancing downwards.

Zhai Ningning followed Chen Xuan's gaze and immediately blushed so deeply that her neck turned completely red. Moreover, this was in front of her two best friends. She was so embarrassed that she could dig a three-bedroom apartment out of the house and just wanted to find a hole to crawl into!

She then separated from Chen Xuan at lightning speed, took several steps back, and came to her best friend's side. Zhu Zhu and Rou Wu stared at Chen Xuan with unfriendly eyes.

"You bastard Chen Xuan, how dare you... um?"

Before Rouwu could finish speaking, the shy Zhai Ningning covered her mouth.

Chen Xuan may be shameless, but she is. If word gets out, how will she ever face anyone again!

"Ningning, what do you mean by this?" Rouwu asked, puzzled.

However, when she looked at Zhai Ningning, there was a hint of cunning in her eyes.

"I...I'm injured right now, so I should focus on healing first. We can deal with this later!" Zhai Ningning quickly made up an excuse.

"Fine, but Chen Xuan has really gone too far. From now on, let him be our slave!" Rouwu pretended to be angry.

"Well, I don't mind being treated like a slave, but I have a question I'd like to ask."

"Say!"

Rouwu suddenly became agitated. Had Chen Xuan lost his mind? How could he possibly be willing to be their slave? Let's see what he's up to first!

"Will you feed them grass?"

Rouwu was instantly defeated, her face turning bright red.

"You mean the reward? Well, that depends on your performance! If you can make me happy, you'll get plenty of benefits!" Zhai Ningning said proudly, raising her chin.

"I see. Then I will definitely do my best in the future and try to get Miss Zhai to give me a lot of benefits!"

"Go away, go away! You should hurry up and heal her wounds!" Rouwu couldn't stand it anymore and just wanted to escape the scene.

"Ahem, Miss Zhai, please give me your wrist so I can take your pulse."

Upon hearing this, Zhai Ningning obediently extended her hand.

She didn't understand why he would take her pulse when she had only suffered external injuries, but she still listened to Chen Xuan and wanted to see what this person from the lower realm was capable of.

At this moment, Zhai Ningning's attention was not on Chen Xuan's "healing," but rather on secretly observing him.

Chen Xuan seemed unaware of Zhai Ningning's gaze. He was focused on taking her pulse and simultaneously channeling his spiritual energy, which carried Lin Rou's life force, into Zhai Ningning's wound.

In an instant, Zhai Ningning's cheeks flushed. She had never been in contact with any man like this before, so even if it was just Chen Xuan's spiritual energy entering her body, it was too much for her.

At this moment, Zhai Ningning's wound had long since stopped bleeding, and under Chen Xuan's spiritual energy healing, the wound gradually healed without even leaving a scar.

Zhai Ningning looked surprised when she saw this.

She hadn't expected Chen Xuan's medical skills to be so superb. Even the best healing pills she had used before couldn't have made the wound heal so quickly.

This made her a little curious about Chen Xuan. Then, when she looked at Chen Xuan's serious expression again, a strange feeling arose in her heart, and her heart seemed to skip a beat.

"No way, this... how could this be..."

She never imagined that one day she would have such feelings for someone from the lower realm.

During the treatment, Chen Xuan was very focused, as if he hadn't noticed Zhai Ningning's unusual behavior at all.

"Alright, Miss Zhai, your wound has healed. You just need to rest a bit," Chen Xuan said with a smile, withdrawing his hand.

"Thank you, thank you," Zhai Ningning said, her face flushed.

"No need to thank me, Miss Zhai. It's what I should do. After all, I still need your grass to feed me."

"Why do you only want the good stuff!"

"No, I just want to eat grass."

"..."

"Then, if I get injured in the future, can I still ask you for treatment?" Zhai Ningning asked tentatively.

“Of course, Miss Zhai, you can contact me anytime if you need anything,” Chen Xuan replied without hesitation.

"Alright, I've got it!"

Then, Chen Xuan prepared to leave, but Zhai Ningning suddenly called him back.

"Chen Xuan, wait a moment," Zhai Ningning said.

Chen Xuan stopped and turned to look at Zhai Ningning.

"Is there anything else, Miss Zhai?" Chen Xuan asked.

"Um, thank you for saving my good sisters in the secret realm. I haven't had a chance to thank you yet," Zhai Ningning said somewhat awkwardly.

Zhu Zhu: "???"

Rouwu: "!!!??"

No, sister, if we're out of things to talk about, we can just leave it at that. Why are you using us as a scapegoat? Besides, the abilities Chen Xuan displayed in front of outsiders were far inferior to ours. How did it become that he saved us in your mouth?

Seeing this, Chen Xuan smiled.

"Miss Zhai, you don't need to do this. It's already a blessing that Miss Zhu Zhu and Miss Qing Wu didn't save me. How could I possibly save them!"

"Huh?! Is that so?" Zhai Ningning blushed deeply.

Looking at Chen Xuan's serious profile just now, she subconsciously assumed he was a genius expert...

"Yes, in fact, I should be thanking you!"

Yes, thank you for having my baby in the future.

“Then, from now on you can just call me Ningning, you don’t need to call me Miss Zhai anymore,” Zhai Ningning said.

"Okay, Ningning, please take care of me from now on," Chen Xuan said.

The two exchanged a smile, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.

But clearly, the expressions of the two women behind Zhai Ningning turned sinister.

Then, right in front of Chen Xuan, the two of them pulled Zhai Ningning away and took her to her room.

P.S.: I've been feeling really lethargic every day. Starting tomorrow, I want to update twice a day. Please keep an eye on me; if I don't update, please message me.
