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

"Sigh." Yu Qingcheng sighed, then stretched out her jade-like hand and slapped Mu Qingfeng hard across the face.

"Snapped!"

Mu Qingfeng was so dizzy from the slap that he saw stars and swayed, almost falling over.

As his eyes gradually regained their clarity, his face flushed red and then turned pale, filled with shame and resentment.

He looked at Yu Qingcheng, his lips trembling slightly, as if he wanted to explain, but didn't know where to begin.

"Qingfeng, you have really disappointed me this time!"

"Master..." Mu Qingfeng murmured, his voice choked with emotion.

"Disciple knows he was wrong."

However, the anger and resentment in his heart still burned fiercely, but he dared not vent it again because of Yu Qingcheng's majesty.

Yu Qingcheng looked at him, her eyes filled with disappointment, and gently shook her head, saying, "Qingfeng, you have followed me for many years, and I always thought you were calm and composed. But your impulsive actions today have really disappointed me. You should step down and reflect on your actions."

Mu Qingfeng bit her lower lip tightly, clenched her fists until her knuckles turned white, and although she felt extremely unwilling, she could only endure it.

He bowed deeply to Yu Qingcheng and said in a deep voice, "Disciple takes his leave." After saying that, he turned around and slowly left, each step seeming extremely heavy, his back view full of loneliness and disappointment.

After Mu Qingfeng left, Yu Qingcheng's gaze slowly turned to Chen Xuan.

Yu Qingcheng parted her lips slightly, her voice cold: "Chen Xuan, although we are master and servant in name, today's events have made me realize that if things continue like this, you and Qingfeng will become irreconcilable enemies. To avoid further trouble, from now on, you and I will live separately."

"Also, those things I asked you to do... you don't need to do anymore!"

Sure enough, although it's a toxic novel, the main focus is still on the female protagonist. Without using other methods, it's impossible to actually get the main character.

"Senior, what did I do wrong? I hope you will enlighten me, and I will correct my mistakes."

“You have done nothing wrong. It’s just that Qingfeng is impulsive. I’m afraid that if this continues, someone will die. Go find a place to stay. If it’s not important, you don’t need to come to see me again.”

After saying that, she turned and walked towards the inner room. Chen Xuan did not try to stop her; he needed time to build up his emotions.

……

The next morning, Chen Xuan arrived early at Yu Qingcheng's soft couch.

"Didn't I tell you that you don't need to come over again?" Yu Qingcheng said, sounding slightly tired.

Chen Xuan remained silent, but squatted down in front of Yu Qingcheng's bed and gently pinched her fair, white feet.

Yu Qingcheng felt a heat at her ankle. The moment Chen Xuan grasped it, her cheeks flushed red. She tried to pull her foot back in a panic, but Chen Xuan held it gently, preventing her from moving.

"Ding, Yu Qingcheng's favorability +10."

"What...what are you doing!" She was both ashamed and angry, her voice rising involuntarily, her eyes filled with helplessness.

Chen Xuan raised his head, looking intently at her, and said softly, "Senior, from the first moment I saw you, I fell deeply in love. These days together have only made my heart more restless. I know I am of lowly status, but this feeling is simply too difficult to suppress."

As Chen Xuan spoke, he reached out and grabbed her white fox tail.

Yu Qingcheng trembled, her panic intensifying. She turned her head away, not daring to meet Chen Xuan's gaze. "You...you mustn't say anything more! This is outrageous!" Her voice trembled slightly, and her hands unconsciously gripped the hem of her clothes.

"Ding! Yu Qingcheng's favorability +10!"

Chen Xuan seemed to have made a tremendous decision, and he slightly increased the pressure on his hand. "Senior, I don't care about other people's opinions or status. I only know that I want to be with you."

I haven't used my confession skills in a while, and I'm a little rusty. But judging from the situation, this guy seems to prefer the domineering CEO style.

Caught in Chen Xuan's grasp, Yu Qingcheng felt weak and powerless all over, but then she thought of something and a resolute look flashed in her eyes.

"Enough! Chen Xuan, I already have someone I care about, and I will never reciprocate your feelings. Stop bothering me. Let's pretend today's events never happened."

She forcefully pulled her foot back, stood up in a panic, straightened her slightly disheveled clothes, and dared not look at Chen Xuan again.

"I see..." Chen Xuan looked disappointed.

"In that case... I'd better not stay here any longer."

Upon hearing this, Yu Qingcheng immediately turned her gaze to Chen Xuan.

"What do you mean?"

"It doesn't mean anything, it's just a figure of speech, the literal meaning."

"You want to leave me? Why? You already escaped from me last time!" Yu Qingcheng felt a tightness in her chest.

"Senior, the person you are fond of is Mu Qingfeng, right? But he is your disciple, yet you have developed feelings for him that you shouldn't have."

"You...you knew all along?"

"Yes, that's easy to see. Since you don't care about me, senior, there seems to be no need for me to stay any longer. Perhaps we'll meet again someday, senior!"

"Chen Xuan, I..."

"Alright, Qingcheng." Chen Xuan gently grabbed Yu Qingcheng's leg again and pulled her into his arms.

"I really want to merge you into my body, my love for you is that strong!" Chen Xuan said, leaving a mark on Yu Qingcheng's neck.

Yu Qingcheng opened her mouth, but something seemed to be stuck in her throat. The words of pleading swirled on her tongue, but she couldn't bring herself to say them.

"Alright, Qingcheng, take care." Chen Xuan gently put the fox-tailed girl down and turned to leave.

Watching Chen Xuan turn and leave, Yu Qingcheng felt a pang of sadness, as if something precious was about to slip through her fingers.

"Chen Xuan..." she called out subconsciously, her voice filled with an urgency and reluctance that she herself was unaware of. Chen Xuan paused, but did not turn around.

In that instant, Yu Qingcheng suddenly remembered Chen Xuan's identity as a prisoner.

Her eyes narrowed, and the hesitation and reluctance on her face were instantly replaced by coldness and hardness. Her tone also became firm: "Stop! Do you think you can go wherever you want? Don't forget, you are my prisoner!"

She stepped forward, blocking Chen Xuan's path, her gaze fixed on him.

"I almost forgot, this isn't a place you can come and go as you please. If I say you have to stay, you have to stay!"

Yu Qingcheng crossed her arms, trying to appear dignified, but her slightly trembling fingertips betrayed her inner unease.
