29: Chapter 29 It Has Nothing to Do with You

After Dai Mubai drove Tang San away, Zhao Wuji said to Bai Qi and the others.

"Alright, the entrance exam is over now. I'm leaving first, you all can go do whatever you want."

After saying this, he turned and left; after all, it wasn't appropriate for him to be among this group.

After Bai Qi and the others chatted in the plaza for a while, Xiao Wu pulled Bai Qi and headed toward the dormitory. On the way to the dormitory...

Ning Rongrong looked at Bai Qi, who was walking at the front leading the way, pulled Xiao Wu, and asked in confusion.

"Um, Xiao Wu, are we living together, boys and girls?"

Zhu Zhuqing, who was beside them, heard this and nodded as she looked at Bai Qi's back.

Xiao Wu looked at the two confused girls, waved her hand, and explained.

"It's not like that. Xiao Qi was originally in the male dormitory. Before we left, I asked the dean to let him come over. At the time, I was the only girl, plus Xiao Qi and I are together, and there were more empty rooms in the girls' dormitory, so he agreed."

However, what Xiao Wu didn't finish saying was that she had also given Flender five hundred gold coins.

After hearing Xiao Wu's explanation, Ning Rongrong nodded, while Zhu Zhuqing lowered her head as if she were deep in thought.

After the four of them returned to the dormitory, later that evening.

A figure came to Bai Qi's door. After taking a few deep breaths, she knocked on the door as if making up her mind.

"Who is it!"

Inside the room, Xiao Wu was sitting cross-legged on the bed, chin in hand, watching Bai Qi sit at the desk organizing the blueprints for the Hidden Weapons he had signed in from Tang San. Today's Dragon Beard Needle had really frightened Bai Qi; this was armor he had condensed with all his Soul Power, and he hadn't been careless in the slightest.

It wasn't the careless Zhao Wuji who hadn't used his full-strength Immovable Wisdom King Body. It could pierce even that. If Bai Qi hadn't guessed that Tang San would use the Dragon Beard Needle and added an extra layer of shell beforehand, well, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

After all, when he watched it in his previous life, he didn't think Hidden Weapons were that exaggerated. Back then, everyone in Douluo Continent was an overpowered character, but now the overpowered character was actually himself.

That was why after returning to his room, Bai Qi didn't even care about the system and started studying the Hidden Weapons first. After all, the Dragon Beard Needle was only ranked eighth; what about the ones ranked higher?

Just as Bai Qi was engrossed in his research, a knock came at the door. Before Bai Qi could look up, Xiao Wu, who was sitting on the bed, answered and got up to open the door.

The person waiting outside for the door to open heard a girl answer and recognized it as Xiao Wu's voice; subconsciously, they wanted to turn and leave.

However, the door had already opened. After Xiao Wu saw who it was, she asked in surprise.

"Zhuqing? Why are you here so late?"

Hearing Xiao Wu's question, Zhu Zhuqing, who had just turned around, froze instantly. She turned back at a loss, looked at Xiao Wu, and then at Bai Qi, who had already looked over.

Blushing and stammering, she said to Xiao Wu.

"Xi—Xiao Wu, could you lend me Bai Qi for a moment?"

Before Zhu Zhuqing even said it, Xiao Wu had already guessed the gist of it just by looking at her expression.

So, she patted her chest and said magnanimously.

"Sure, no problem."

After saying this, she turned back and said to Bai Qi in the tone of a big sister.

"Xiao Qi, go follow Zhuqing. Come back early."

Bai Qi found Xiao Wu's behavior somewhat amusing, but he still stood up, walked to the door, and asked Zhu Zhuqing with a gentle expression.

"What's wrong, Zhuqing?"

Zhu Zhuqing heard this and said, trying to appear calm.

"Follow me."

After saying this, she turned and left.

Xiao Wu looked at the bewildered Bai Qi, pushed him, and said, sounding somewhat frustrated that he wasn't living up to expectations.

"Go! Hurry and follow her, what are you waiting for?"

Stumbling forward two steps from the push, Bai Qi shook his head helplessly and smiled, then walked forward to catch up with Zhu Zhuqing.

Seeing that the two had walked away, Xiao Wu quickly closed the door and snuck along behind them, though she wasn't the only one following the pair.

When Zhu Zhuqing led Bai Qi out of the village to a place not far from the village, the two stopped.

In the bushes not far away, Xiao Wu, who was watching the show, was suddenly tapped. She was startled and almost cried out when she turned around, but Ning Rongrong covered her mouth and made a 'shh' gesture at her. Xiao Wu looked and nodded.

It turned out that ever since Zhu Zhuqing returned to the dormitory, she had been restless, not even telling Ning Rongrong when she left. So, she felt it was strange and followed. In the process of following, she discovered that besides Xiao Wu, there was someone else following, but since she knew Xiao Wu, she decided to meet up with her first.

At this moment, Bai Qi and Zhu Zhuqing fell into silence.

After a while, Zhu Zhuqing turned around and looked over.

"Thank you for saving me today and before."

As Bai Qi listened to Zhu Zhuqing's words and was about to respond with a smile, a voice came from behind.

The owner of this voice was indeed the last person following behind Bai Qi and Zhu Zhuqing: it was Dai Mubai. After settling Tang San, he had intended to find Zhu Zhuqing to ask her about something.

As a result, when he came over, he discovered she had left and gone to Bai Qi's room, so he followed as well.

Upon arriving at the location and seeing Zhu Zhuqing turn to look at Bai Qi, he felt like a green hat had appeared on his head. Unable to hold back any longer, he came out and shouted.

"Zhu Zhuqing, have you forgotten whose fiancée you are?"

Zhu Zhuqing was startled by the sudden voice and hurriedly turned to look. After seeing who it was, her eyes dimmed.

Dai Mubai, walking toward her, saw the look in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, and his anger grew even more, fueling his momentum as he walked in front of Zhu Zhuqing.

He raised his hand, preparing to slap Zhu Zhuqing, while saying.

"Do you know that you are my fiancée, yet you dare to seduce others? You shameless bi... Ah!!!"

Zhu Zhuqing, seeing Dai Mubai's action, knew she was in the wrong and had already closed her eyes, prepared to take the slap. However, the sudden scream made her open her eyes again.

Opening her eyes, she saw that Dai Mubai's wrist was being tightly gripped by a hand reaching out from behind her. The force was so great that Dai Mubai's face was twisted in pain.

Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong also ran out from the grass at this moment, stood behind Bai Qi, and looked at Dai Mubai.

At this time, the butterfly emblem on Bai Qi's chest flashed and disappeared, but no one noticed.

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing, who had come back to her senses, looked at Bai Qi, who was standing behind her expressionlessly watching Dai Mubai, and Xiao Wu and Rongrong behind him, who were looking at her with encouraging eyes.

After turning back, she took a deep breath and said.

"Big Brother Bai, let go."

After saying this, she looked directly at Dai Mubai.

Bai Qi heard this and glanced doubtfully at Zhu Zhuqing, who had her back to him, but without saying anything, he released his hand.

Dai Mubai, whose hand had been released, regained some sanity due to the pain, but he still clutched his hand, looking at Zhu Zhuqing with a ferocious expression, waiting for her explanation.

Even though he was afraid of Bai Qi, he couldn't lose the dignity of being the Third Prince of the Star Luo Empire now, even though he had lost that dignity who knows how many years ago.

Subsequently, Zhu Zhuqing took out two marriage contracts from who knows what four-dimensional pocket; one of them was Dai Mubai's. Then, in front of Dai Mubai, she tore it to shreds and said.

"Dai Mubai, from today on, I am no longer your fiancée, nor am I a member of the Zhu family of the Star Luo Empire. You walk your path, and I will cross my bridge."

When Dai Mubai saw Zhu Zhuqing take out the marriage contracts, his pupils constricted slightly. He had originally thought that Zhu Zhuqing would explain something, but he didn't expect that she didn't even explain and just tore the marriage contract to shreds. He shouted subconsciously.

"Zhu Zhuqing, are you crazy?"

Listening to Dai Mubai's impotent rage, a cold sneer appeared at the corner of Zhu Zhuqing's mouth as she said.

"I'm not crazy. I'm very clear-headed right now. On the way to find you, I was hunted down. It was Big Brother Bai and Big Sister Xiao Wu who saved me. And what about you?"

Dai Mubai was stunned after hearing this and said, stuttering a little.

"I... I didn't know."

Listening to Dai Mubai's words, the cold sneer on Zhu Zhuqing's face deepened, and she said.

"That's right, you didn't know. At that time, you were probably with the twins."

"You were tracking me?"

Dai Mubai trembled violently after hearing this and said.

"No. But your attitude has already let me know there is no future. From now on, I have nothing to do with you."

Hearing Dai Mubai's questioning, Zhu Zhuqing didn't intend to waste any more words with him. She turned around, pulled Bai Qi, and left. Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong had been shocked from the beginning of their confrontation to the end.

It wasn't until Zhu Zhuqing pulled Bai Qi's hand and left that they came back to their senses and hurriedly followed.

Leaving Dai Mubai alone with the torn scraps of the marriage contract fluttering in the wind. A gust of wind blew by, blowing the scraps on the ground away until they disappeared without a trace.

Zhu Zhuqing pulled Bai Qi the whole way. It wasn't until they reached Bai Qi's door that she belatedly withdrew her hand and said, somewhat flustered.

"Um, I didn't mean to, it was just that at the time..."

Bai Qi gently interrupted Zhu Zhuqing's words at this moment and said.

"Zhuqing, I understand. You didn't mean to."

Listening to Bai Qi's words, although Zhu Zhuqing had calmed down, her face was even redder than before.

"Good night."

After saying this in a hurry, she ran back quickly.

Seeing Zhu Zhuqing run away, Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong, who had followed, also chased after her.

Bai Qi stood at the door, watched them all leave, and then returned to the room.
