Sensing the ambiguous atmosphere between the two, Ruan Xihe took a step back and got out, slightly increasing the distance between them, and then asked in confusion.

"Why did you come suddenly?"

Hearing her question, Fu Ling looked a little flustered, and recalled what happened not long ago...

At that time, he was dealing with some things in Huanhai, but Wuqing suddenly sent him a message.

"Ms. Ruan not only contracted a beast and obtained a divine weapon, but also made many friends."

"Male female?"

"Your Excellency, are you asking about Miss Ruan's new friends? They are some nice young men."

"..."

Then when Wuqing saw him again, he had already arrived here.

Fu Ling slowly clenched his fingers in the air, stood with his hands behind his back, and his tone was a little awkward when he spoke again.

"I heard from Wuqing that you contracted a small beast, so I came to take a look."

"After all, the higher your strength, the more secure my life will be."

Ruan Xihe's eyes lit up, and he grabbed the small horn on the Taotie's head and pulled it out of the space.

"Do you want to see Xiao Hei? I signed a life contract with it."

Taotie: “!”

When did it get the name Xiao Hei?

It wanted to argue and say that its name was not Xiao Hei, but due to the pressure from the man in front of it, it did not dare to open its eyes and could only pretend to be asleep.

Fu Ling took the Taotie from her and weighed it in his hand.

"It's actually it?"

"Although it's a bit greedy, it's okay to be your contracted beast. However, isn't the life contract a bit..."

Ruan Xihe frowned in confusion, "Isn't the life contract good?"

"It's okay to make a natal contract, but each person can only contract one beast. If you want to make a contract, you naturally want to contract with the best one." Fu Ling explained.

"Roar——" What's wrong with me?

Taotie felt aggrieved. From childhood to adulthood, countless people had longed to get it. Now that it had finally made a contract with a human, it was still rejected.

"It's okay for you to contract it now. After all, your current cultivation is not high. If the level of the contracted beast is too high, it may cause a lot of trouble..." Fu Ling pondered.

Taotie: "?"

Okay, okay, it's option e, it's plan b.

"But it has been sealed for too long, and its strength may have decreased a lot. You must be mentally prepared."

Ruan Xihe smiled and said, "I knew this when I signed the contract with it, but it doesn't matter. I don't need it to do anything for me."

"Heh..." Taotie sneered in his heart.

How could the cunning humans not let them go up to fight? This woman is just talking now. When the situation arises, she will definitely let them go up.

As expected, humans are hypocritical and cunning!

Taotie, who was constantly criticizing humans in his heart, suddenly felt his body tremble, and then he heard a voice in his mind.

"She signed a life contract with you, you must protect her."

The cold tone carried a hint of chill, which instantly made Taotie's hair stand on end, and he suddenly jumped back into Ruan Xihe's arms.

It had already lost most of its power because it had been sealed for too long. Now that it had left the seal and established the contract, it had lost a lot of power again.

So now it can only transform into a shape about the size of a dog, with two horns on its head as long as a human's forearm, curly hair, and a dark blue body.

"What did you do? Why is its fur standing up?" Ruan Xihe muttered, lowering his head to stroke the fur of the Taotie in his arms.

"Hmm?" The ending tone was cold and raised, carrying some danger.

Fu Ling narrowed his eyes and glanced at the Taotie in Ruan Xihe's arms. It instantly deflated and its fur became soft.

Afterwards, Ruan Xihe stuffed Taotie back into the space and stared straight at Fu Ling.

Now that I have finished watching this, what next?

Feeling a little guilty under her gaze, Fu Ling supported his chin with one hand and coughed lightly a few times, then spoke haltingly.

"I...I used to have a friend."

Ruan Xihe nodded, "Well, then what?"

"He...made many good friends, but ended up getting framed because he didn't know the people well."

"Condolences."

"......" Fu Ling was silent for a while, then he suddenly changed the subject, "I said so much to tell you that you should always be alert to the people around you and keep a proper distance..."

At this point, his cheeks heated up slightly.

"Especially boys."

"Hmm?" Ruan Xihe raised his eyebrows, realizing something was wrong with the words.

He was talking fine before, why did he suddenly add "especially boys"?

Since he asked her to warn the people around her, then she must be warning everyone. Why did she have to warn the boys in particular?

Could it be possible that he...

"Fu Ling, you couldn't be..." Ruan Xihe gave a wicked smile.

Fu Ling's breath hitched, thinking that she had noticed something.

He was both looking forward to and afraid of...

But when he heard her next words, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Ruan Xihe spoke confidently and mysteriously, "Could it be that you have been hurt by a man?"

There was a gleam in her eyes and her gossipy heart was burning.

"Don't guess randomly." Fu Ling reached out and tapped her head.

He couldn't understand why she had so many weird thoughts all day long?

"Hiss..." Ruan Xihe covered his head with his hands and said unconvincedly: "Then why did you specifically tell me to be careful of boys?"

In the distance, Wuqing shook his head in disappointment.

This Emperor and Miss Ruan, one is really arrogant and the other is stupid.

When it comes to being slow, the two of them are really not much different. If they continue like this, who knows how long it will take for them to be able to communicate with each other!

Otherwise, could he think of a way to give Miss Ruan some advice?

Wuqing rubbed his hands together excitedly, laughing secretly in his heart.

"That's because..." Fu Ling swallowed and his mind worked quickly.

"That's because I calculated that there is a calamity in your life, and it is a man."

Hearing this, Ruan Xihe grabbed Fu Ling's upper sleeve, then gently stood on tiptoe, removed the mask covering his face, reached out to lift the strands of hair from his forehead, and placed his hand on it.

"I don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense..." She murmured, then burst into laughter, her eyes slightly curved, "How do you know that the calamity can't be you?"

It was not until she felt his warm breath on her face that Ruan Xihe realized that their bodies were almost touching.

She could even feel the warmth coming from somewhere on Fu Ling's body...

Jumping...

A blush instantly crept up her cheeks. She was startled and stepped back hastily, but accidentally fell into his arms.

Similarly, Fu Ling's face suddenly turned red. He put his arms around her tilted body, and his earlobes were so red that they seemed to be bleeding.
