Chapter 175: “Do you really think I sleep like a dead pig at night?”
“Um, excuse me, but could you take off your clothes?” Bai Yu Mo stood in front of the bed, cheeks slightly flushed. “Just, just the top part!”
Bai Feng watched Bai Yu Mo frantically explaining herself, suddenly feeling a mischievous urge to tease her a bit.
So, while Bai Yu Mo was whispering nervously, he casually took off his long robe.
Bai Yu Mo’s voice disappeared instantly.
Then Bai Feng reached for his thin white shirt, and Bai Yu Mo instinctively tried to turn her face away, yet her eyes kept flickering towards him.
Seeing her awkward, eager-to-see-but-embarrassed expression, Bai Feng chuckled and teased, “Why don’t you help me take it off?”
Bai Yu Mo’s eyes widened, and she quickly cast her gaze downward, blushing even more. She raised her tiny hands, then immediately dropped them again: “I, I’ll… I’ll do it…”
“Just kidding.”
Bai Feng burst into laughter, smoothly stripping off his white shirt, revealing a sturdy yet naturally flowing, beautifully toned body inside.
Bai Yu Mo’s cheeks blushed even brighter. Her eyes darted nervously, and she stammered, “Um, then, please lie down on the bed… the rest—leave it to me!”
“Got it.”
Bai Feng obediently lay down on his soft bed as Bai Yu Mo looked on, trying to figure out what to do next.
“Uh, I’m starting now.”
Bai Yu Mo swallowed hard, mustering her courage as she placed her hands on Bai Feng’s shoulders.
Without the barrier of clothes, it felt really… different.
And her hands weren’t as icy as usual—seemed like she’d pre-warmed them intentionally.
The massage went smoothly, without any awkward mishaps—no accidental detours into other territory.
But Bai Yu Mo’s hands were a bit stiff, definitely less comfortable than when she wore her outfit.
Gradually, as Bai Feng’s breathing became even and steady, Bai Yu Mo slowed her movements.
She lowered her head slightly, voice trembling a little as she whispered, “Big Brother?”
Bai Feng seemed to be asleep, not hearing her.
Her heart hammered faster, and she took a quiet breath to steady herself.
Carefully, she shifted Bai Feng’s body, keeping her focus tight—any sudden movement from him, she’d have to stop immediately.
Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened.
Now, Bai Feng shifted slightly, and she gently moved to lie on the opposite side of his bed, gazing at his sleeping face with a faint smile: “Bai Feng, good night.”
A few more minutes passed, Bai Yu Mo’s breathing evened out. Bai Feng slowly opened his eyes.
He already knew Bai Yu Mo didn’t have the guts—at least, her daring to sleep on his bed was enough to drain all her courage.
And…
He glanced at her—though she was on the opposite side, there was a clear “air” space between them, no contact.
He had even been worried about locking the door earlier. Now, it seemed unnecessary.
Maybe I should scare her a little?
A mischievous thought flickered in Bai Feng’s mind, but he quickly suppressed it.
Forget it, just let her sleep peacefully.
…
Morning came, Bai Feng woke up, and the first thing he saw was Bai Yu Mo’s smiling, open-eyed face looking at him from across the bed.
“Big Brother, you’re awake.”
“Didn’t go home last night?” Bai Feng asked knowingly.
Bai Yu Mo slightly averted her gaze, voice faint: “Mm… I did go home. I just came early this morning, wanted to wake you up.”
“Really think I sleep like a pig at night?” Bai Feng flicked her forehead.
“Ugh…” Bai Yu Mo covered her forehead with both hands. “Big Brother, you already know?”
Bai Feng sat up on the bed, grumbling, “You tossing me around so much… there’s no way I didn’t notice.”
Bai Yu Mo wasn’t upset at all—in fact, she looked a little excited: “So, can I sleep with you again?”
“No,” Bai Feng replied immediately.
“Then… can I at least give you a massage again?” Bai Yu Mo asked eagerly.
Though rejected, she didn’t feel too upset—after all, Bai Feng had basically told her outright he didn’t mind sleeping together anymore.
So, since there was a first time, there could definitely be a second!
Eventually, Bai Feng would get used to sleeping with her!
“If you don’t mind finishing the massage and then lying in my bed to sleep, that’s fine,” Bai Feng caught her little scheme in an instant.
But Bai Yu Mo seemed to pretend she didn’t hear, quickly nodding: “Yep yep, that’s settled!”
Even though she was turned down, it was no loss—she’d gone from giving massages on the sofa in the living room to the bedroom now. Big progress!
After that, she got up from bed, trotting happily to open the bedroom door: “I’ll go prepare breakfast~”
‘So satisfying!’
Bai Feng lay back down on the bed again—if only Yun Yue Yao was like that too.
Every time he was with Yun Yue Yao, he felt the system sharpening its knives behind his back, ready to give him a little (meaning: luck points).
Today’s contest was alchemy and artifact forging, so the crowd wasn’t as big as yesterday.
But the Holy Son and Holy Maiden of the Holy Land were all present.
“Good morning!”
Soon after Bai Feng and Bai Yu Mo arrived, a familiar yet strange figure appeared before them.
A smiling Holy Maiden from Yao Chi Holy Land waved cheerfully and hurried over: “Junior Sister Bai, do you remember me?”
“Anything I can help with?” Bai Yu Mo asked calmly.
“Remember what I said during the contest? I want to get to know you,” the Holy Maiden from Yao Chi smiled. “Oh, and though you probably know my name, I’ll reintroduce myself: I’m Jiang Ling, Holy Maiden of Yao Chi Holy Land.”
Then she turned to Bai Feng: “This is your big brother, right? I’ve heard a lot about your deeds, Bai Junior—’Image Retainer’ was you, right?”
“Exactly,” Bai Feng replied casually, feeling this luck child was a bit too friendly—could she maybe be a little more aloof like those other luck kids?
Like the one with bandages wrapped around her, standing quietly beside the Tai Chu Holy Land’s luck child…
Wait—another luck child?
“Lin Ge, good morning! Bro Pei showed up early too,” Lin Yan said, approaching and giving a friendly wave to the Holy Son from Tai Chu. His own bandages were a bit more prominent but far less than the Holy Son’s.
The Holy Son of Tai Chu looked at Lin Yan, smiling: “Good morning, Junior Brother Lin. When I heal up, let’s have a match.”
“Anytime, I’ll be ready!”
Then he turned back to Bai Feng with a more serious look: “Hey, want to have a match? I haven’t had a good fight with someone in a long time.”
Bai Feng: “?”
You really think I look like I’m just asking for a beating?
Yeah, with my luck points so high, facing the luck child is basically a one-way ticket to humiliation…
