Dual Cultivation God Returns-Chapter 914: I can be impulsive as well...

Bi Rui was sitting opposite Wu Long in a small tea house, as they waited for their order to arrive.

She was looking out of the window they sat by, a subtle smile on her face.

Her gaze then shifted to Wu Long without turning her head, but upon meeting his eyes looking straight at her, turned to look back at the street out of the window.

His subtle and content smile very slightly widened, an amused look appearing in his eyes.

Outside of the time they were intimate or certain moments when they were in each other’s embrace, or had some sort of serious conversation, Bi Rui rarely looked straight into his eyes.

Especially when they were out in public on a date like this, she mostly looked at him when he wasn’t looking at her.

He turned to look out of the window and with peripheral vision saw that she turned her gaze to him, a light blush appearing on her cheeks along with a blissful smile.

And then as he turned back to her, her gaze shifted again.

The waiter brought their tea and sweets, and for a moment, her attention shifted to the dessert, as she took a bite.

"Mmm~!", she close her eyes and made a delighted expression, savoring the taste.

Wu Long’s eyes flashed with delight, as he watched her.

She noticed his gaze after eating a few more bites, and bashfully turned to look at her plate, "W-What is it?"

"Nothing, I just like looking at you", he sipped his tea with a smile.

"Y-you’re going to get tired of my face if you look so much", Bi Rui said after a bit, tucking her hair back behind her ear.

"There’s definitely no need to worry about that", Wu Long chuckled.

"How can you be so sure?", her blush intensified as she still looked at her plate, the small wooden spoon in her hand aimlessly poking and prodding the sweet snack on top.

"I’m more than sure", he said as he placed his hand over her left hand, which was freely laying on the table, "Besides, are you saying you’re going to get tired of my face at some point?" fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

"Of course not!", Bi Rui turned to look up at him, agitated, and then froze seeing his amused look.

"See?", he slightly tilted his head as her face turned red.

She nodded without any words, and continued eating her sweets. The look in her eyes, however, was full of happiness.

His eyes stopped on the hairpin she wore on the side, recognizing his gift, making up his mind on where to go after this.

At the same time, she noticed his gaze, and made a wide grin as she cherishingly touched the hairpin.

"Hehe, I like it a lot so I wear it", she smiled, and added with a light blush, "...and I also wanted to look cute for you"

"What do you mean?", Wu Long raised his eyebrows, "When are you not cute?"

"...", Bi Rui froze, widening her eyes. Her cheeks - which were already slightly rosy - revealed a deeper blush as she saw his genuine expression.

Her first thought after her mind unfroze, was to tease him for being so suave, but that melted away as soon as she looked at him. She didn’t see a smug smile or anything implying he was just being coy, just a sincere look.

She moved before she could even think what she was doing, quickly circling around the table and leaning in to kiss him.

He responded, weaving his hands around her and gently tugging to have her sit on his lap.

She didn’t know how much time passed, but when she finally calmed down, she finally realized where they were, blushing and leaning onto him to hide her embarrassment. At the same time, she felt content and blissful in his arms.

Wu Long naturally moved the plate with her sweets over to his side, implying he wasn’t going to let go of her and that for the rest of their time in this tea house she would be sitting on his lap.

She bashfully smiled, and after a few moments turned to continue enjoying her sweets.

"You sure you don’t want to try? It’s good", she asked as there was just a little bit left.

"I know", he chuckled, looking at her lips, and a blush returned to her cheeks. She narrowed her eyes at him while slightly pouting her lips, causing him to laugh and hug her slightly tighter, leaning in to put his face against her neck.

She closed her eyes, enjoying the feeling of intimacy.

As they were going out of the tea house, Bi Rui noticed envious gazes of women around, becoming a bit bashful as she realized how many people saw them.

As they took a stroll, their hands linked, she looked at him from the side, a slightly wry smile appearing on her lips.

"Was I once again too focused on training?", she asked, since she was in the middle of training when he offered to go on this date.

"Hahaha, not everything I do has some hidden meaning, Rui’er, I can be impulsive as well", Wu Long lightly laughed, shaking his head.

He stopped walking, turning to her and raising his hand to her cheek, gently pushed her to look into his eyes, adding "I just saw you when I was passing by, so I wanted to see if there is anything I can"

Her eyes widened, and then a chuckle escaped her lips, her hands wrapping around him, "I guess I read too much into it, I just... I think I was a bit anxious..."

"It’s alright to be nervous, or uncertain. Though I think you give yourself too little credit", he smiled, his thumb on her cheek gently caressing it.

"I was just keeping up with Sister Mengqi up until now... but I won’t be able to much longer. I knew that long ago", Bi Rui shook her head with a calm smile.

Bi Rui and Wu Mengqi were not really competing, but they were still equals in their Martial Arts skills for a long time.

However, Wu Mengqi’s genius was simply undeniable. Bi Rui knew this, as even Ye Ling often said that Wu Mengqi’s talent far outclassed her own. Not to mention she could feel it when they sparred.

The only thing holding her back until now was the fact she was creating her own sword style instead of following someone’s already trodden path.

Even her ’lazy’ behavior lately when she put off training was caused by the profound helplessness in achieving results when she trained, as she was searching for a solution.

Now, after the recent breakthrough, however, her growth in strength and skill would increase exponentially, leaving the previous rate of growth completely in the dust.

Wu Long gently smiled, "Now that you mention it, I have to thank you for not hurting Mengqi’s feelings by winning your regular spars instead of going easy on her"

"Of course, I went all out as we always do", Bi Rui smiled as well, as if saying he didn’t even need to mention it.

"However, I do have to remind you, that talent is not all that there is. If you want proof, you’re looking at it", he chuckled, "It is true that Mengqi has the potential to become one of, if not the best sword masters in the Seven Boundless World, but that doesn’t mean you have no chance to keep up"

"But...", she hesitated, since it was hard to imagine, and at the same time, his ’proof’ was hard to refute.

"As long as you are not consumed by emotions, they can be a source of great power for you, Rui’er. Rivalry and competitiveness as well", Wu Long spoke quietly, and in an intimate voice, but his words reverberated in her mind, "Besides, as I said before, I think you give yourself too little credit"

She smiled, not sure if it was his words that made her feel so comfortable or simply the fact he cared. She leaned in to hug him tighter, and their lips met in another kiss.

She soon remembered they were in the middle of a crowded street, but it was already late as he wasn’t going to let her go that easily.

After she finally persuaded him that they could kiss more later in private, he led her to the best jewelry merchant in the Silver Wing City to choose another hairpin, and a pair of earrings.

He wanted to buy more, but she said that each one would be more memorable for a different date, which he found incredibly cute, eventually agreeing with her.
