Bai Jingjing’s pretty face turned red as she glared and said, "In your dreams!"
Fang Yi, thick-skinned as ever, responded with a mischievous smile, "We already have the reality of a married couple. You help me, and I help you."
Bai Jingjing picked up a chopstick.
Fang Yi quickly admitted his mistake, "You’re the boss. I was wrong; I was wrong."
A bottle of Baijiu was quickly empty. Although this sorghum liquor was much stronger than usual, Bai Jingjing was not the kind of woman who got drunk easily. As the Alliance Hierarch of the White Tiger Alliance, naturally, her alcohol tolerance was high.
"Jingjing," Fang Yi said softly.
Bai Jingjing was taken aback upon hearing Fang Yi call her in such a manner.
"...Then tell me, do you like me?"
"If I asked you to marry me, would you be willing?"
Fang Yi was stunned, "Marry you?"
Bai Jingjing’s eyebrows furrowed, "You’re not willing?"
Fang Yi replied, "Well... it’s not that it’s impossible, but now is not the time to talk about marriage."
Bai Jingjing nodded thoughtfully, "That’s true. There’s also that beautiful CEO from Longtu Group. If you were to marry, you’d surely marry her. After all, I’m just an alliance leader, how can I compare to someone as noble as her?"
Hearing this, Fang Yi gave a bitter smile, took a deep breath, and said, "Fine, since it’s , let’s be open about it. Anyway, you are a woman I’ve been with, so you are mine. Asking me to give you up is impossible, just as giving up other women is impossible."
Bai Jingjing’s cheeks flushed with indignation as she glared with her beautiful eyes, "You... you’re too domineering."
Fang Yi shamelessly responded, "I don’t care. You’re my woman anyway, and I absolutely can’t give you up."
Bai Jingjing asked, "What about giving up other women?"
Fang Yi was still shameless, but with a hint of seriousness, "The women I set my heart on are mine. Yes, I am very domineering, but I am responsible only to my own women. What’s wrong with a man having several wives and concubines, as long as he’s happy, isn’t that enough?"
Bai Jingjing looked at Fang Yi speechlessly, fell silent for a while, and then punched him in the chest, saying, "You really are domineering, still thinking about having multiple wives and concubines. Aren’t you afraid?"
Hearing Bai Jingjing relax her tone, Fang Yi’s heart stirred, seeing his chance.
So without waiting for Bai Jingjing to think further...
This night was destined to be a restless one.
As both were in a lucid state of mind, and Bai Jingjing no longer resisted, she let Fang Yi take the lead.
In the morning, sunlight spilled in.
Fang Yi sat on the edge of the bed, feeling the streams of True Qi flowing inside him. He casually cracked his knuckles, which sounded louder than when he was at Human Level Nine.
Earth Level, Fang Yi had finally reached it.
Fang Yi felt the vigorous True Qi within his body. Yes, it was True Qi, no longer Inner Strength!
With robust True Qi, Fang Yi felt full of power, every muscle in his body subtly pulsating, an absolute change from before, entirely transformative.
From now on, Fang Yi would not fear any fighter of the Earth Level’s first stage. Even if a second-stage fighter came, Fang Yi felt he could overcome them.
Although Dragon Vein was no longer present, Fang Yi’s innate talent and perseverance were purely his own.
All his strength originated from within himself.
Just then, the beauty beside him stirred. Bai Jingjing sat up and looked at Fang Yi with a half-smile, "It seems there was another reason you came to me last night, besides seeking happiness."
Fang Yi embraced her beautiful, pale shoulders with an arm, smiling, "From now on, I have more strength to protect you."
Bai Jingjing did not inquire further. She merely hummed softly.
Since she chose to trust, then let trust continue. This was Bai Jingjing, the Alliance Hierarch of the White Tiger Alliance’s mindset at the moment.
