BXBX NOVEL Chapter 88 - 88: Boyfriend
[Damn it! He’s showing off! But hey!]
[That’s right. Liao Ning is truly captivating. She even won Colonel Zhou’s heart.]
[I should be proud of what you just said, shouldn’t I? But I can’t help but feel uneasy at the thought of Liao Ning being taken away!]
Not only the livestream viewers, but even Liao Ning herself was taken aback by Zhou Ling’s actions. She stared at Zhou Ling in a daze and couldn’t help but feel a bit shy.
After spending so much time interacting with Zhou Ling, she felt that she understood his character. Zhou Ling was not someone who would simply joke around.
Recalling how she had playfully asked him to be her boyfriend and was initially turned down, even though he eventually agreed, Liao Ning suddenly realized that she might not be so easily “won over” by him upon hearing him publicly declare his pursuit in the livestream. After all, she had a mischievous side to her.
While Liao Ning was lost in her thoughts, Zhou Ling began to feel a sense of foreboding.
As expected, in the next moment, he heard Liao Ning say, “I adore furry fur the most. If Ling is willing to transform back into a white tiger and let me touch your snow-white fur, I might consider accepting your pursuit.”
As soon as Liao Ning uttered those words, the livestream audience perked up, eagerly waiting to see how Zhou Ling would handle the situation.
Under the gaze of Liao Ning and the countless viewers in the livestream, Zhou Ling adjusted the white tiger ears he had yet to retract. He feigned composure and said, “Nai Nai must be hungry. We shouldn’t let the little one go hungry.
Let’s eat first.’
However, the wolf cub, who had been quietly observing from the side, unexpectedly interjected with an innocent tone, blocking Zhou Ling’s escape route. “I’m not very hungry. I can wait for Uncle Zhou to answer your questions before eating.”
Zhou Ling knew he had no way out this time. “… If it makes you happy… I can transform…”
A wide smile spread across Liao Ning’s face. “Until next time!”
After receiving the desired answer, Liao Ning swiftly reached out and turned off the livestream, paying no attention to the disappointed audience who craved gossip.
Liao Ning pulled the blushing Zhou Ling out of the kitchen and settled at the dining table, with Liao Nai eagerly awaiting their presence. “I apologize for keeping you waiting, kiddo. Let’s eat!”
“Yay!”
Liao Nai happily picked up his chopsticks and began eating, oblivious to the troubled expression on Zhou Ling’s face.
Liao Ning, noticing this, kindly served Zhou Ling a bowl of fish, coaxing, “My dear boyfriend, it’s time to eat!”
Upon hearing the word “boyfriend,” Liao Nai took a rare moment to look up at Liao Ning and Zhou Ling. Although he didn’t want anyone to snatch his aunt away, he wouldn’t object if it was someone as formidable as Zhou Ling, who could protect her.
“By the way, won’t you be putting yourself at risk by openly appearing in the livestream?” Liao Ning asked Zhou Ling, who was earnestly eating.
Zhou Ling swallowed his food and responded, “No. After the encounter with the assassins at the Hunter Association this morning, the influential families should already be aware that the man beside you is the missing me.”
“But won’t you be in danger! We still don’t know who’s scheming against you. It’s very risky for you to be out in the open, ” Liao Ning expressed her concern.
Zhou Ling smiled reassuringly. “Don’t worry. Gao Dian and the other brothers have already uncovered the mastermind behind the attack and have obtained solid evidence.”
Liao Ning’s eyes lit up. “Who is it?”
Zhou Ling signaled for her to keep quiet and pointed outside the window. In that moment, his gaze fell upon a white pigeon inside the room. He shook his head at Liao Ning and used his finger to write the word “Wang” on the table.
Liao Ning also glanced at the white pigeon. There had been nothing outside the window just a moment ago, but now she refrained from further inquiries, fearing that their adversaries might be listening in.
The following morning, the organizer of the food competition sent Liao Ning and the other participants a ticket to the capital planet. However, Liao Ning had no intention of using it. After learning that Yu Ni planned to bring Yu Guo along, Liao Ning generously handed her ticket to Yu Ni.
Yu Ni accepted the ticket and inquired, “What about you?”
“Ling mentioned that a spaceship will be arriving to pick us up.”
“Thank you. Guoguo and I will head out first. We’ll see you on the capital planet.” Yu Ni smiled gratefully at Liao Ning. The finals of the food competition were taking place on the capital planet, and spaceship tickets to the capital planet had been sold out a month in advance..
