Tongtong finally found someone suitable for her, and her smile had become much more abundant than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was good, Tongtong’s joy was Xue Chuchu’s genuine happiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for her, she was always solitary, and even if ignored, it wouldn’t matter. She liked standing in forgotten corners, gazing at the bustling crowd from afar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a short moment, her thoughts whirled around endlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning ignored her words and continued to explain: “The reason I didn’t take you was because we had planned to skip the second-class and go to a dessert shop.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So you definitely couldn’t go, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning reached towards the plastic bag on the sofa and grabbed two round balls: “To make it up to you, take this to eat.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his movement, two fist-sized oranges appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were a special variety chosen by Shao Shuangshuang at Jiang Ning’s request, cultivated meticulously in a spirit field by the sun-drenched and water-flanked Hu Qi Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire Hu Qi Mountain had this sole orange tree, the only one in the entire world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oranges from the spirit field were extremely round, with a smooth skin, and the color was many times brighter than regular oranges. It seemed to have absorbed the essence of the sun, radiating warmth in the late November world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Chuchu stared somewhat blankly at the orange as a fresh fragrance wafted over, a natural citrus aroma that made her feel relaxed and happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was dazed for a few seconds, as if someone had picked her up from the corner where she had been forgotten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning’s eyes carried an apology and warmth: “Take it, don’t refuse again.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay.” She nodded forcefully, her slight disappointment melting like the warm sunshine of early spring, and the chill on her face dissolved along with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her mouth curved slightly, forming a perfect arc, blossoming with a sweet brilliance, beautiful in a heart-stopping way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Chuchu didn’t refuse; she took the orange, feeling its smoothness with her hands, sensing Jiang Ning’s care.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After accepting the orange, Xue Chuchu smiled and exchanged a glance with Jiang Ning for a few seconds, her cheeks faintly flushed, but she said straightforwardly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then I’ll go home now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning: “Okay, be safe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Chuchu wanted to laugh. She pursed her lips, her soft voice brushing past Jiang Ning’s ear: “It’s very close; there’s no danger. But, I’ll be careful.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning stood in the courtyard, watching her leave. In the past, Chuchu’s back was like a tranquil ink painting, out of place with worldly affairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, as he looked again, it was as graceful as always, yet with an added touch of earthly warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ning smiled slightly. Doesn’t this count as Tongtong hitting her with a stick and then him giving her a sweet date?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeah, hopefully, Tongtong will keep it up, not letting down his expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ten minutes later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yuantong went to find her good friend to play, discovering that Chuchu was at home eating an orange, and her eyes, sharp as always, immediately noticed the fruit’s flesh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cut flesh revealed a crystal-clear orange color, like a gem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The juicy and tender pulp looked mouth-watering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Relying on her strong self-control, Xue Chuchu reluctantly shared the last piece of orange with her good sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xue Yuantong took the orange flesh, eagerly tasting it, the sweet and sour juice bursting in her mouth, truly fragrant and mouth-watering, leaving a lingering taste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, it seemed as if there was another unique sensation emerging from the flesh, like a trickling clear spring, giving her a refreshing and nourishing feeling, soothing her whole being.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So good!” Xue Yuantong was almost in tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Chuchu, where did you get the orange? Did Jiang Ning give it to you?” Xue Yuantong inquired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This couldn’t be hidden, so Xue Chuchu admitted openly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, you Jiang Ning!” Xue Yuantong dashed away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaving Chuchu in the room, she felt a headache for Jiang Ning but also an unspeakable joy.\u003C\u002Fp>",972,"2026-05-30T14:40:18.966Z","2026-06-01T04:31:29.709Z",1,"novelbin.me","5ffc4bc2c9fd742f47695b58e4322faca655299bb08db787482e1c2858534a65","rebirth-slice-of-life-cultivation-chapter-1081","rebirth-slice-of-life-cultivation-chapter-1079",1809,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frebirth-slice-of-life-cultivation-cover.jpg"]
