It was just after 7 PM and the sky had just darkened. Ye Xiaofei spoke up, “Xiaoyu, let’s go back to our room.”

Ning Xiaoyu froze. She hadn’t expected Ye Xiaofei to say in front of her mother that they would go back to their room. Her face turned red instantly, reaching her ears.

Auntie Ning smiled faintly and said, “Go ahead. I’m fine by myself. 1 can watch TV dramas.”

But Ning Xiaoyu remained seated, unable to bring herself to go to the room with Ye Xiaofei.

Auntie Ning nudged Ning Xiaoyu and said, “It’s so hot today. Your clothes must be smelly after wearing them all day. Go and wash them for Xiaofei.”

“All! Okay.” Ning Xiaoyu seized this opportunity and quickly stood up, hurrying into her room.

Ye Xiaofei grinned at Auntie Ning and followed her inside.

As soon as the door closed, Ning Xiaoyu stomped her foot and pouted, feeling angry. She said, “Xiaofei, why didn’t you explain to my mom?”

Ye Xiaofei sighed helplessly, “She has already made up her mind. No matter how we explain, she won’t believe us.”

Ning Xiaoyu complained, “Even if she doesn’t believe, you… you shouldn’t have agreed to stay in my room.”

Ye Xiaofei explained, “I thought it would be a good opportunity for you to cultivate your true qi properly in these two days. And I can teach you some martial arts so that you’ll be safer. This kind of thing shouldn’t be disturbed, so 1 naturally agreed to your mom for our convenience.”

“Oh, I see. You scared me. I thought…” Ning Xiaoyu let out a sigh of relief, her face blushing. She glanced at Ye Xiaofei but couldn’t find the words to continue.

Ye Xiaofei reached out and touched Ning Xiaoyu’s head, affectionately saying, “Silly girl, how could I be so mean? Come on, let’s get started quickly. We have quite a few tasks for today.”

“Okay!” Ning Xiaoyu readily agreed, then hesitantly asked, “Do 1 need to take off my clothes?”

Ye Xiaofei immediately replied, “No, you won’t have to anymore.”

“Oh…” Ning Xiaoyu felt a subtle disappointment. But she scolded herself inwardly, “Ning Xiaoyu! You have no shame, in hoping to undress in front of Xiaofei.”

Ye Xiaofei continued, “However, there will probably be a lot of physical contact today.”

“No problem,” Ning Xiaoyu’s tone involuntarily carried a hint of joy.

But immediately she felt it was too shameless and became extremely embarrassed. She stuttered, “Will it be difficult?”

“It shouldn’t be difficult, but this time we’ll be combining the punches with the true qi. So you need to coordinate your movements and true qi perfectly. Because I need to constantly feel the circulation of your true qi to correct any mistakes.”

“I understand.”

Ning Xiaoyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, Xiaofei didn’t notice her thoughts, or else she would be so embarrassed.

Although Ning Xiaoyu already possessed the most basic true qi and knew how to circulate it, the practical application of true qi wasn’t something that could be comprehended so easily.

Ye Xiaofei stood behind Ning Xiaoyu, his arms wrapped around her. One hand pressed against her dantian, while the other hand rested on her sternum at the Shanzhong acupoint.

As he exerted force with both arms, true qi surged from his Dantian. It first arrived at the Shanzhong acupoint, then spread through his arms.

These were the two main acupoints, so they required the most attention in the beginning.

Ning Xiaoyu could only feel Ye Xiaofei pressed against her back. His breath brushed her hair gently as if caressing it.

With his hands wrapped around her, she felt as if she were nestled in Ye Xiaofei’s embrace, creating an indescribable sweetness.

“Good! Now, begin circulating the true qi and direct it to the Shanzhong acupoint on your left hand.”

The moment Ye Xiaofei’s voice sounded in her ear, Ning Xiaoyu immediately cleared her mind of distractions. She didn’t want to let Ye Xiaofei’s efforts go to waste, as he was teaching her so earnestly.

As they truly began to practice, Ning Xiaoyu gradually realized that it was not as simple as she had initially thought.

The coordination between true qi and movements was challenging. When her palms lost control and ended up striking her own body, it truly hurt. She couldn’t help but cry out in pain.

Auntie Ning had to go to the restroom and happened to pass by the room, where she heard Ning Xiaoyu’s cries.

Though the room had decent soundproofing, Ning Xiaoyu’s cries sounded faint from behind the door. It wasn’t a pitiful cry but rather something unique.

Auntie Ning paused for a moment, furrowed her brows slightly, but then smiled, shook her head, and walked away.

Young people, once they experience something for the first time, tend to be unrestrained and enthusiastic.

It wasn’t until eleven o’clock that Ye Xiaofei and Ning Xiaoyu finished their practice.

As Ye Xiaofei was about to leave, he suddenly frowned.

“What’s wrong?” Ning Xiaoyu asked with confusion.

“Auntie is still watching TV,” Ye Xiaofei said, wrinkling his brow.

“So what? Ah… does that mean you can’t go back to your room?” Ning Xiaoyu couldn’t help but reveal a bashful and joyful smile on her face..
