Chapter 5

If Lu Yun saw his room like this, he would definitely think he was a dirty and unhygienic person. But that's not the case. It's because he hasn't been getting enough Yang energy lately.

Yun Qi bent down to tidy up his room. When he got to the jars, he suddenly remembered that he was supposed to buy a shower head when Lu Yun came out. How did it turn into Lu Yun having to massage his chest?

As Yun Qi packed her things, she told Lu Yun that she didn't need to massage him anymore; she could just go to the convenience store and get some exercise since he hadn't showered yet.

Why didn't he think of this solution sooner! Yun Qi shoved the clothes into the closet, only remembering it after he had finished tidying up.

Lu Yun had been playing with the brand-new bottle of essential oil outside. Tonight, they were about to take a big step forward. He couldn't help but lick his lips, wondering if it was too fast for Xiao Qi.

However, for him, it was anything but fast. After several years, he finally saw his first breakthrough.

Lu Yun was radiating a pleasant atmosphere, with a smile in his eyes and a slight upturn at the corners of his mouth. He patiently waited for Yun Qi to come out with his arms crossed.

A dozen minutes later, Yun Qi finally came out and said to Lu Yun, "I just remembered that I still need to go downstairs to buy a showerhead. The gym is downstairs, and I haven't showered yet so I can work out. I won't trouble Xiao Yun to give me a massage."

Lu Yun's smile froze, and the twinkling stars around him fell to the ground with a clatter, shattering into pieces, just like Lu Yun's heart.

He gripped the essential oil tightly, veins bulging on his face, but his expression remained gentle as he spoke softly, "It's no trouble at all. You can buy the showerhead when you get off work tomorrow. Your health is the most important thing."

Yun Qi waved her hand: "It's really okay, let's go down now, it's still early."

Feeling the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Yun Qi scratched her cheek and walked out first: "Let's go quickly. I just went to check, and your house isn't ready yet. I'll help you tidy it up after we buy the items."

Lu Yun smiled through gritted teeth: "Okay, let's come up after we finish shopping. We don't need to go to exercise anymore. Helping me tidy up the house is also a form of exercise."

Yun Qi was about to shake her head and refuse, but then she remembered that she had already refused Lu Yun many times. Her heart skipped a beat, and when she turned to look at Lu Yun's expression, it was indeed not good.

Thinking that cleaning the room was quite tiring, she figured she could just come back and do a few more things herself, since Lu Yun was still her boss.

I still don't want to be treated unfairly.

Thinking of this, Yun Qi nodded: "Okay, then we'll come up after we've finished shopping."

Lu Yun finally smiled with relief; it seemed that tonight wasn't all bad after all.

The convenience store downstairs has everything; buying a shower head was quick, and they came up in less than ten minutes.

Lu Yun wanted to go and install the showerhead, but Yun Qi stopped her: "You've already taken a shower, it won't be good to get it wet again. Let me do it, I haven't taken a shower yet, you can pack the other things first."

Lu Yun felt a warmth in his heart, nodded, and as soon as he was out of Yun Qi's sight, he made a gesture of holding his heart like Xi Shi. His little Qi was really too heartwarming.

Yun Qi had never repaired this kind of thing before, but he could still do it, since it looked quite simple.

He took off the broken showerhead and tried to screw the new one in. Whether it was a problem or something else, Yun Qi strained to screw it in, but couldn't get it in. He bent over and pressed hard, and finally, when he managed to push it in, his elbow hit the showerhead switch. In an instant, warm water gushed out, soaking Yun Qi completely.

Yun Qi's face was directly facing the showerhead, and the water sprayed out, splashing all over his face. He exclaimed in surprise, raised his hand to wipe the water off his face, and then put the showerhead back down, frowning as he looked at his soaked white shirt.

"What should we do..." Yun Qi murmured softly.

Hearing the commotion, Lu Yun came over. Seeing Yun Qi like this, his Adam's apple bobbed, he swallowed hard, suppressing the longing in his eyes. Lu Yun walked in with a worried expression: "What happened? Xiao Qi, you should go back and take a shower and rest. I can clean up the room myself."

As a succubus, Yun Qi's body was certainly not that weak, but he was currently in front of Lu Yun as a human, so he could only cross his arms and pretend to be cold, shivering a few times: "Yes, it is a little cold."

Lu Yun said, "Then hurry back, I can pack up by myself."

Yun Qi looked at him and felt a little embarrassed. She had just promised to pack up with Lu Yun: "How about I pack up with you first?"

Although Lu Yun knew that Yun Qi's body was different from that of ordinary people, he couldn't guarantee that his physical condition was strong. It would be bad if he caught a cold. He forcefully pushed Yun Qi back: "Don't worry, it's just a little bit of food. I can finish it quickly. You should go back now."

Yun Qi also wanted to go back and take a shower, but she still had to pretend: "Oh dear..."

Before she could utter a word, Lu Yun swept her up in his arms like a princess and said, "I'll take you straight back."

Yun Qi was stunned. Afraid of falling, he could only hold tightly to Lu Yun's neck. Unexpectedly, Lu Yun picked him up directly. Yun Qi couldn't help but wriggle and ask, "I...aren't I heavy?"

Lu Yun smiled, his chest trembling, and Yun Qi leaned against him, his heart tingling with a sweet, numb sensation: "What's so heavy about this? Our little Qi is just right."

The yang energy emanating from Lu Yun seeped into my nose in wisps and strands, becoming even more subtle and impactful the closer I got.

Although it was only a few steps from Lu Yun's home, Yun Qi felt as if he had walked for several hours. By the time Lu Yun put him on the sofa, Yun Qi was still in a daze.

His cheeks were flushed, and he couldn't say a word. Seeing his dazed expression, Lu Yun smiled and reached out to pinch his cheek, saying, "Alright, go take a shower."

Lu Yun withdrew his gaze from Yun Qi's chest.

The white shirt was wet, clinging tightly to Yun Qi's muscle lines. Yun Qi was very fair-skinned, as was the entire Demon Realm. The pinkest part of his upper body was those two small dots.

Lu Yun felt a tickle in her throat, covered her mouth and coughed a few times. When she tried to speak again, she stammered, "You, you, you should go take a shower. No, no, don't catch a cold."

Yun Qi snapped out of her daze, her face burning red. She kept avoiding Lu Yun's gaze, nodded hesitantly, and got up to get her clothes.

As he walked, his pectoral muscles bounced, and his soaked white shirt made him look like he wasn't wearing any clothes at all, half-exposed and even more alluring.

Lu Yun told himself to look away, but his eyes seemed to have a mind of their own, remaining fixed on Yun Qi's chest muscles.

It's bouncy, white and round, and pinkish, like the white rabbit jelly Lu Yun had seen online. It bounces when you gently tap it with a spoon.

Lu Yun felt a tightness in his lower abdomen, his breathing became hot, and his philtrum felt itchy. He reached down and touched it, oh, so he had a nosebleed.

Yun Qi had already gone inside. Lu Yun calmly wiped his nosebleed, walked out, and closed the door.

It's just a nosebleed, it's only natural, and it's something he should do.

When I got home and saw the mess I had made, I thought I could clean it up with Yunqi, so I dug out everything.

He had to bear the bitter fruit of his own actions. Lu Yun wiped away the blood from his nose; it seemed he would have to stay up all night.

Hopefully, staying up late won't lower the quality of his yang energy. If it does, he won't be able to attract Yun Qi anymore, and he'll be at a huge loss.

Lu Yun packed up quickly, holding his breath. Halfway through, he straightened up and looked at the door, wondering if Xiao Qi had finished showering yet.

Yun Qi, whom Lu Yunxin was thinking about, was standing under the shower in the bathroom, warm water sliding down her skin and splashing onto the floor.

As Yun Qi took a shower, he blushed all over when he thought about Lu Yun's actions just now. This was the first time he had ever done this in his demonic life.

Is it just his imagination?

Does Lu Yun also have feelings for him?

Definitely. Otherwise, why would she want to be so good-looking? Why would she want to be so perfectly suited to his tastes, with every feature designed to please him? Isn't that seduction?

And with such a strong, fragrant aura, doesn't she know he's a succubus?! This is seduction! She's trying to seduce him and pounce on him.

I never expected Lu Yun to be so cunning, hmph.

Yun Qi rinsed off the shower gel and came out, still steaming. She was taken aback to see that Lu Yun had already gone back. She glanced at the time; it was already 10:30. It was normal for him to go back.

He muttered to himself, "Playing hard to get, what kind of wicked humans think he'll fall for my good looks and delicious yang energy!"

As Yun Qi dried his hair and lay in bed, about to drift off to sleep, he thought fiercely, "He won't take the bait! He's a succubus with unwavering will!"

As Yun Qi drifted into a deep sleep, she had an unspeakable dream.

Someone pressed their forehead against his and kissed him, kissing his cheeks, his lips, his chin, his nose...

The hardworking farmer planted bright red strawberries.

His pectoral muscles were grasped, gently kneaded, or heavily twisted, and the yang energy overflowing from his nose layered over his entire body. Yun Qi was fed until he couldn't eat anymore.

Helpless, she could only beg for mercy, which only elicited a low chuckle from the man in her ear. His husky, magnetic voice, close to her ear, slowly said, "Didn't you say you wouldn't be tempted by me? Xiao Qi? How come you're so gluttonous, you're so full?"

"...Damn it!" Yun Qi, jolted awake from his dream, looked at the mess beneath him, the blanket soaked in a small patch, front and back. He covered his face in annoyance, "Ugh, so annoying!!"

In the dead of night, a light came on in Yun Qi's house. He got up, took a hot shower, changed his pants, and lay back down with a gloomy face.

But when she thought about what happened in her dream, Yun Qi couldn't help but blush and roll around on the bed.

It's all Lu Yun's fault!! Ugh, it's all his fault!!

This is the first time I've ever had a dream like this in my life. It's all Lu Yun's fault!!

Yun Qi couldn't sleep, so he impulsively got up and ate two cans of Yang Qi before lying back down and closing his eyes.

He kept telling himself, "I can't think about Lu Yun anymore, I can't have this dream anymore!"
