Shen Qingcong noticed that each time she came in, Little Bai Yan would always remind her of this concern, knowing that he was worried about her spending too much time outside and her practice time being too short, delaying her progress and consequently putting off his rebirth indefinitely.
She patted him lightly on the shoulder, reassuring him in a calming tone, "Little Yan, don't worry, I haven't forgotten about that. Once I'm through with this current wave of tasks, I will dedicate all my time to cultivation, striving to reach the Nascent Soul Stage as soon as possible, okay?"
Little Bai Yan looked at her arrogantly, huffing coldly, "It seems like you've said this more than once, haven't you? You always say that you'll do better, that you'll hurry up once you're done. Yet every time, there are endless things keeping you busy. Hmph, you're just trying to pacify me... "
On reflection, Shen Qingcong had to admit he was right!
