Little Jue had not exhausted himself to the point of needing to rest immediately. However, the rest of the Bai family was not around. Only he and Bai Jiao’er were left.

Little Jue suddenly didn’t want to leave when he realized this.

He wanted to spend more time alone with her.

“I’m a little tired. Sit down with me and rest for a while.” With that, Little Jue sat down and leaned his head gently on her.

Bai Jiao’er’s heart ached when she saw this. She quickly sat down with Little Jue and let him lean on her.

She frowned and reached out to touch his face. “You look so pale. If I had known earlier, I would have asked Uncle Hai to give you some pills to replenish your energy. Little Jue, are you feeling unwell? Tell me.”

Little Jue leaned against her, breathing in her fragrance. “I’m not feeling unwell. I’m just a little tired.”

It was rare for Bai Jiao’er to see Little Jue so relaxed. She couldn’t help feeling a little curious. “Hehe, I realized that you become more talkative when you are weaker.”

Little Jue didn’t deny it. He nodded and leaned his head on her. “You don’t blame me?”

“What do you mean?” Bai Jiao’er asked with a frown.

“I didn’t tell you that I know two immortal techniques.” Little Jue looked at Bai Jiao’er uneasily with an inexplicable glint in his eyes. “You don’t blame me for hiding it from you, right?”

Bai Jiao’er pouted angrily. “You still have the cheek to ask? Of course, I blame you. Daddy told me before that people with two immortal techniques can easily lose control of their energy. You have two immortal techniques, but you didn’t tell us about this. Are you deliberately making us worry about you? Fortunately, nothing happened. Otherwise, I wouldn’t let you off so easily.”

Bai Jiao’er clenched her fists angrily. Little Jue immediately promised, “I promise I won’t hide anything from you anymore.”

“Forget it, I won’t argue with you. Anyway, I have my own little secret which I didn’t tell you,” Bai Jiao’er said proudly.

Little Jue was instantly interested. “What secret?”

For some reason, Bai Jiao’er blushed. She turned her head away and said in a sweet voice, “I… I won’t tell…”

Usually, Little Jue would not force Bai Jiao’er to tell him something when she didn’t want to.

But today, he had a feeling that her secret must have something to do with him. Hence, he couldn’t help wanting to get to the bottom of it.

Little Jue knew very well that ordinary methods wouldn’t work, so he pretended to be unwell. He suddenly groaned and held his heart.

Bai Jiao’er became anxious when she saw this. She asked Little Jue, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Don’t scare me.”

Little Jue pretended to be in pain and groaned. “It’s all because you’re unwilling to tell me the truth. I feel very upset, that’s why I feel so ill…”

Bai Jiao’er was both angry and amused. “You’re lying! I don’t believe you!”

“I knew it. You don’t care about my health. Forget it, let’s go back.” Little Jue lowered his head gloomily, looking like his heart had been broken.

Bai Jiao’er knew that he was pretending, but she couldn’t help worrying.

“Alright, alright, I’ll tell you.” Bai Jiao’er blushed and whispered into Little Jue’s ear.
