The two exchanged a smile, and the distance between them seemed to shrink by another step. The initial misunderstandings and conflicts gradually melted away in the face of the crisis they had experienced together, replaced by a deep understanding and trust.
"By the way," Nezha suddenly recalled, "do you still have that Sealing Potion? Shouldn't we give some to Li Ming to help him forget about tonight?"
Ao Bing shook his head. "That potion is specifically designed for demon powers; it won't work on ordinary people. But don't worry, Aunt Taiyi will handle it."
"What kind of person is Aunt Taiyi?" Nezha asked curiously. "She seems to know a lot about these matters."
Ao Bing revealed a mysterious smile. "Some secrets are better left for later. Right now, we both need to get some rest."
Nezha nodded in agreement; indeed, the battle that night had drained them of much energy, and they both needed to recover.
Just as Ao Bing was about to go wash up, he suddenly noticed the mess on his desk—Shen Gongbao and Li Ming had clearly rummaged through his things while searching for Dragon Scales. Books were scattered everywhere, papers were in disarray, completely disrupting his usual tidiness.
Ao Bing sighed and was about to start cleaning up when Nezha stepped forward first. "Let me do it," he said, already beginning to tidy the desk. "You've used too much energy tonight; you should rest."
Ao Bing looked at Nezha in surprise, not expecting this usually messy and carefree roommate to take the initiative to help him clean. What surprised him even more was that although Nezha's movements weren't as precise as his own, they were unexpectedly careful and attentive.
"Thank you," Ao Bing said softly, sitting on the edge of the bed and watching Nezha's busy figure, a warm feeling rising in his heart.
"It's nothing," Nezha replied without turning around, continuing his work. "After all, we are partners."
Ao Bing smiled slightly and said nothing more. He quietly watched as Nezha returned the scattered books to their places, neatly stacked the papers, and even wiped away the dust from the surface of the desk. This boy, who always seemed impulsive and careless, was now displaying a rare patience and attention to detail.
Satisfied, Nezha clapped his hands. "Alright, it should be about the same as before, right?"
Ao Bing nodded. "Very good, much tidier than I imagined. I didn't expect you to have this side to you."
Nezha scratched his head, a bit embarrassed. "Don't mention it. Actually, my dad used to force me to clean my room when I was a kid, but I got lazy about it later."
The two exchanged smiles, their mutual understanding growing stronger.
The next morning, the sun shone brightly, and the campus was peaceful, as if the thrilling events of the previous night had never occurred. Nezha and Ao Bing woke up early, packed the Dragon Pattern Items, and prepared to follow Aunt Taiyi's instructions to store them safely.
"This incident has finally come to an end," Ao Bing said, carefully tying up the bag containing the items. "Thank you for your help, Nezha."
"Don't be so polite," Nezha waved his hand. "For me, this was a rare adventure! It's so boring at school most of the time."
Ao Bing chuckled softly. "Only you would consider such dangerous things an adventure. But..." He paused, his gaze softening. "I'm really glad to have you as my partner."
Nezha grinned widely, puffing out his chest proudly. "Of course! I'm the 'demon child' Nezha—fearless of heaven and earth!"
As they joked and walked out of the dormitory building, sunlight poured over them, warm and comforting. Students came and went around the campus, unaware that a disaster had nearly struck there the night before, nor did they know that these two seemingly ordinary college students had just experienced a heart-pounding battle.
After handing over the Dragon Pattern Items to Aunt Taiyi, they returned to their dormitory, ready to enjoy this rare peaceful weekend.
"By the way," Nezha suddenly remembered something and pulled out a small soccer ball. "Since we have nothing to do today, how about kicking the ball around in the dorm? I promise we won't break anything!"
Ao Bing raised an eyebrow. "Playing soccer in the dorm? Are you serious?"
"Just for a little while," Nezha pleaded. "It's too hot outside, and I promise I'll only use a small ball and kick it gently."
After thinking for a moment, Ao Bing surprisingly nodded. "Alright, but there are two conditions: first, you can't touch my things; second, if I'm studying, you have to stop."
Nezha jumped up excitedly. "Deal! You're the best, Ao Bing!"
