Chapter 325: Chance Encounter II (2/2)
”You did!” Rui Bing said without hesitation, and a steely resolution.
”I didn’t!” Ye Chong shook his head. He was confident of his own memory.
”You did!” Rui Bing was unyielding.
Ye Chong looked at Rui Bing. He never thought she would be so insistent. Could he really have kissed her? Ye Chong felt a little uncertain. He knew nothing of kissing, from the beginning of the act to the end of it, the process of it, or even the coordination required between the two parties involved. He was confident of his memories, to be sure, but in this matter at least, he was not an expert.
Ye Chong made his final struggle. ”I did not kiss you, probably.”
”You did!” Rui Bing’s eyes shone with determination.
”I did?” Ye Chong asked carefully.
”You did!” Rui Bing’s tone sounded so certain.
It seemed that he really did kiss her. Ye Chong sighed regretfully. He did not fully understand this woman, but it was obvious that she did not take this matter jokingly. However, when did he kiss her? And what was kissing all about? The naive Ye Chong was now thinking of these questions. What would Rui Bing do if she knew?
”When did I kiss you?” Ye Chong asked warily. He might be able to tell from Rui Bing’s reply just how in the world kissing was done.
Ye Chong watched as Rui Bing’s face flushed into a deep red, the blush spreading in plain view from her neck to her cheeks.
It looked like he really did kiss her! Ye Chong’s final hope was dashed. However, he really wanted to understand what this mysterious action was all about.
Rui Bing lowered her head even more.
Her breathing shortened and her face turned red. She had lowered her guard, looking very different from the usual Rui Bing. Ye Chong guessed that he probably would not get anything out of her.
As expected, Rui Bing said nothing for a very long time.
In the end, Ye Chong concluded the topic, ”Well, let’s set this question aside for the moment.”
”Alright. I’ll be with you from now on.” Rui Bing’s expression returned to normal.
He tilted his head and looked at Rui Bing, and Rui Bing understood his meaning. Without any warning, Rui Bing’s eyes shone brightly with an odd light. Ye Chong felt his body tense up together with a heightened sense of danger. Just when he was about to move, he felt something like strings appeared in the empty air and bounded him up tightly.
Almost instinctively, Ye Chong’s eyes lit up. The vanished blue lines appeared once again. The numerous blue lines danced around like fishes in his vision in a fast and disorganized pattern.
The blue lines jiggled vigorously. Abruptly, the lines all converged to a single point. His vision was empty except for a bright, blue dot.
Without further thought, Ye Chong’s throat contracted quickly, releasing a shapeless soundwave from his mouth straight towards the bright blue dot.
Mortal Roar!
The blue dot trembled in the air, but did not vanish. Ye Chong felt the air around him pulsating. His eyes shone even more brightly. His throat contracted again, and he released another soundwave.
The blue dot shook more violently.
The third Mortal Roar hit the blue dot.
Crack! A soft sound, and Ye Chong felt the binding in him gone.
The floor in the room was covered with broken glass. It was a mess. The air in the room continued to pulsate.
Rui Bing said nothing, only looking at Ye Chong, but her short breath indicated that it was no easy task. Ye Chong was also breathing quickly. That short match earlier had strained him.
”You’ve improved a lot,” Ye Chong said with approval.
”You too.” Rui Bing and Ye Chong exchanged a glance, and smiled at the same time.
Ye Chong took out Guardian’s dimension keystone. ”For you, put it on. The voice activation code is Number Two.”
Rui Bing’s face turned red once again, but she sounded an assent and accepted Guardian’s dimension keystone, putting it on her right hand’s ring finger.
Just then, the door was forcefully broken through from the outside.
