"Ah, this is from my girlfriend. It's the first Soul Pearl she's ever given me." Rong Taotao gave a helpless grin and answered.
"Oh?" Ye Nanxi raised an eyebrow slightly and chuckled. "So you plan on using it for the rest of your life?"
Rong Taotao shrugged. "I at least want to fight alongside her in the national competition. We'll finish this part of our journey together, and then we'll see. Besides, this Soul Skill is actually really useful. It's not as worthless as you all make it out to be."
"Tsk, tsk... The Snow Realm's model boyfriend, aren't you~"
"Are you jealous? If you're that jealous, go find one yourself. Did you go to college for nothing?"
"It's not that simple," Ye Nanxi said with a hint of resignation. "If I were a girl from a normal family, without all those people constantly fawning over me, it'd probably be easier to find real friends. It's just so hard... Ugh. It feels like everyone who gets close to me has an ulterior motive."
