Chapter 107 Smells Good: Su Jinmu's Ears Feel Slightly Hot

The morning light streamed into the tent, casting a slanted glow on Su Jinmu's profile, making her features appear even more beautiful.

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly in the golden sunlight, and her clear, shimmering eyes were captivating.

Li Xin stared intently, his breath rising and falling a few times, his eyes gradually darkening, and he spoke in a low, slow voice, "Young Master."

Su Jinmu: "..."

Su Jinmu glanced at him, kicked his shin, and casually raised an eyebrow, "What are you looking at?"

The gaze opposite her never wavered, staring intently like a demon ready to devour her. Su Jinmu clicked her tongue, "You're still looking."

Li Xin smiled slightly, placed his palm on Su Jinmu's knee, rubbed his fingertips against her through her clothes, and looked up, "What will happen if you keep looking? Will the young master get angry?"

Should we prevent him from seeing it?

Li Xin's lips curled up slightly.

Su Jinmu: "..."

Su Jinmu glanced at him indifferently, a slight smile playing on her lips. She lifted his chin, drawing closer until their breaths were almost touching, and spoke softly, "If you're still looking..."

He lowered his eyes, his gaze falling on the other person's scarlet lips, tracing them inch by inch.

Li Xin's breathing quickened, his blood flowed faster, his Adam's apple bobbed, and he moved almost imperceptibly closer, following the young master's movements to bring his lips close, their breaths steaming.

Su Jinmu smiled, and just as her lips were about to touch his, she suddenly changed direction and pressed her cheek against his, giving him a light kiss.

"I won't kiss you."

The devil was waiting to be kissed, but he couldn't be bothered to indulge this evil spirit.

Li Xin's breathing rose and fell, his pupils were dark. He touched his cheek, the sensation of the brief touch still lingering in his nerves, gentle and warm. He couldn't help but smile, "A kiss on the cheek is still a kiss."

Su Jinmu glanced sideways, "Didn't you say that you wanted a happy first kiss, and a kiss on the cheek doesn't count as a kiss?"

Li Xin: "..."

Li Xin chuckled softly.

As dawn broke, the two got up, quickly washed up, set up a small table outside the tent, took out a portable gas stove, and started cooking.

They went camping in this area, which was sparsely populated but had a beautiful environment with stunning lake views.

Su Jinmu originally wanted to ice fish, but the ice was a bit thin in early spring, making it unsafe to go out, so he gave up the idea.

It's alright if he doesn't fish; Su Jinmu doesn't mind. He came to camp and fish, and if he can do it, he'll be happy; if he can't, it's fine too.

The ice is thin this year, so he can come back next year, or the year after.

He has plenty of time and freedom, he is relaxed and unrestrained, without any constraints or time constraints.

Su Jinmu sat at the small table, pulled out a folding chair, stretched her back, and adjusted the flame of the small pot in front of her.

The air outside was cool, and breathing it into my nasal cavity gave me a deep, open feeling of coldness, but it actually felt refreshing and comfortable.

Su Jinmu took a deep breath, her nose slightly red from the coolness, and looked at the magnificent sunrise over the lake.

There was a slight rustling sound behind him. A tall figure stood behind him, her palms, which she had deliberately rubbed together to warm, were placed on his neck and slowly slid down.

"Young Master."

"What are you doing?" Su Jinmu looked at the sunrise over the lake, indifferent and without turning her head.

Li Xin's lips twitched slightly, revealing a chilling, eerie quality, as if he were feeling down. "We just came back from the world of the book. Shouldn't we spend more time together discussing such amazing things?"

Su Jinmu: "..." What's there to discuss?

The voice behind him was low and slow, with a slightly hoarse quality to it. The fingertips on his neck slowly caressed him, gently touching his jawline and behind his ear.

Su Jinmu vaguely sensed something unusual.

This doesn't seem to be about exploring the world in the book, but rather something else.

Su Jinmu shifted down in the chair, resting her head against the back of the chair, half-lying down, and looking up at the person behind her.

Li Xin looked down at him. He was backlit, his nose was high and straight, and his deep eyes were even more unfathomable. The corners of his mouth were slightly curved.

How would you like to discuss this?

Li Xin's fingertips caressed his earlobe, her voice soft and low, "Young Master is ignoring me over there."

I avoid him whenever I see him; it annoys me.

Su Jinmu: "..."

Su Jinmu laughed, "Don't you get annoying over there?"

Even after being transported to a book world, the vengeful ghost's habits remained unchanged, remaining chilling and damp.

Li Xin: "..."

Li Xin shifted the position of his fingertips that were kneading his earlobe, rubbing the edge of the earlobe and the back of the ear with force.

"Hmm..."

Su Jinmu's body trembled slightly, feeling a little sensitive and wanting to dodge. He lay back in the chair, and as soon as he made a slight movement, Li Xin pressed down on his shoulders to stop him from moving.

Su Jinmu: "..."

Su Jinmu clicked her tongue, chuckled, somewhat speechless, grabbed his clothes and tugged at them, slowly and deliberately, "Hold me."

Li Xin's eyes darkened, his scarlet lips curled up, he stretched out his arm, easily grabbed Su Jinmu by the waist and lifted her up, then walked into the tent.

Su Jinmu: "..."

Perhaps it's because the world in the book is always ignored, and the ghost is keeping it in mind.

Su Jinmu was being carried by Li Xin, who walked towards the tent. With his back to the tent, Su Jinmu glanced at the small pot on the table and patted Li Xin, saying, "Turn off the fire."

Li Xin turned around quickly, turned off the main switch, and carried the person into the tent in a flash, the zipper closing rapidly.

Su Jinmu was pressed down onto the soft cushion, and Li Xin gently rubbed against his neck, his eyes filled with a deep and dark emotion, "...Young Master."

Su Jinmu tugged at his hair, saying casually, "Don't be too rough, I haven't eaten yet."

Li Xin laughed and nuzzled his cheek, "The young master won't go hungry."

Su Jinmu: "..."

Is this a serious question?

The tent was tightly closed, blocking out the wind and light. In the dim environment, you could hear the wind flowing from the mountains and lakeside outside, making the tent rustle.

The sense of freedom from the vast wilderness continued to grow and spread.

It was cool outside the tent, but very hot inside.

The air was thick with heat. Su Jinmu rested her arm over her eyes, too exhausted to move. She was also hungry, and her breathing was labored.

"Young Master."

Li Xin smiled, his smile spreading. The young master in the book world ignored him and prepared to leave a year later. Although he hadn't regained his memories by then, he couldn't help but think of the great fire that had once destroyed the Su family.

She either ignored him or simply walked away.

The young master simply vanished from his world.

Fear took root in his heart. Although he recovered his memories and became much better, he didn't remember the young master, who still ignored him.

Li Xin pulled the person tightly into his arms, a smile playing on his lips. The hint of scarlet in his dark pupils gradually faded, and the person became calm and obedient.

"Is the young master tired?" Li Xin asked in a low, hoarse voice.

Su Jinmu answered without hesitation, "Tired."

Li Xin stared at him for a while, her gaze sweeping over his bright red, moist lips before settling on his throat. Her voice was soft and clear, “Young Master, your voice is very strong.”

Su Jinmu: "..."

Su Jinmu glanced at him sideways and repeated, "I'm tired."

Li Xin checked the time. "It's still early."

Su Jinmu: "I'm tired."

Li Xin touched the corner of his lips, "Just now—"

Su Jinmu: "I'm tired."

Like a beautiful, exquisite, and cold-blooded repeater.

Li Xin laughed, a warm current flowing through his heart, and his possessiveness surged again. But here in the middle of nowhere, just the two of them, Li Xin's unrestrained desires were greatly satisfied.

He picked the person up and couldn't resist taking a bite, then quickly went out to prepare the meal, saying, "Young Master, wait for me."

Su Jinmu slumped on the mat, lazily rolled over, feeling a slight ache in her back. She gritted her teeth, buried her face in the blanket, and felt her ears burning slightly.

...that damn thing.

Su Jinmu ate breakfast and lunch in the tent, and only felt a little better in the afternoon.

In early spring, tender green shoots emerge along the lakeshore. Sunlight spills across the lake's surface, making it clear, bright, and exceptionally beautiful.

Su Jinmu sat on the chair looking at the scenery and suddenly had a craving for barbecue.

They came camping with a lot of things, including barbecue, which was all marinated, skewered, and stored in their small refrigerator.

There were also some fresh ones bought locally, but the two of them weren't very good at marinating and seasoning, so they grilled quite a bit of both.

Flames grilled the turning meat skewers, golden oil condensed and sizzled, releasing an irresistible aroma.

Su Jinmu took a deep breath, her eyes brightening slightly. It smelled wonderful.

The aroma of the marinated meat, along with the pure, unseasoned fragrance of the meat, whetted one's appetite. Su Jinmu's lips curved into a smile as she moved closer to the aroma.

"Alright." Li Xin handed him a skewer as well. "Try it."

Su Jinmu took the skewer, held it tightly, and took a bite of the marinated meat skewer that had been brought to her.

It's savory and rich, without suppressing the original meat flavor. Instead, it adds to the rich texture. The outside is slightly crispy, while the inside is soft and tender. One bite is full of aroma and flavor, with layers of taste impacting your taste buds.

Su Jinmu's smile brightened slightly. "It's delicious. Dad marinated it just right." She even considered that the seasoning had been continuously seeping into the meat while they had brought it from the refrigerator.

It was just right!

Su Jinmu shoved the skewers in front of Li Xin and praised him, "You grilled them perfectly."

Li Xin stared at the meat skewers in front of him, his teeth close to the spot where Su Jinmu had just bitten, biting into the meat and pulling it forward, his gaze fixed on the young master in front of him.

She smiled faintly, "It smells very good."

Su Jinmu: "..."

Su Jinmu took a bite of the food she had just bought nearby. It wasn't marinated much, as they weren't good at it, so they simply added some salt and grilled it. Surprisingly, it tasted pretty good.

The meat here is fresher and more tender than what they brought over, probably due to its origin. It has a rich aroma and a satisfying texture, making each bite very enjoyable.

Su Jinmu's eyes narrowed slightly as she ate.

Li Xin narrowed his eyes, licked his lips, and his scarlet color intensified, like a demon eager to devour its prey. He stared intently, his Adam's apple bobbing involuntarily.

Li Xin baked one batch and then stopped, baking again only after they were finished, keeping the temperature very low.

They sat very close, their arms touching, in an extremely intimate distance.

Su Jinmu was eating barbecue, and Li Xin was eating too. But after a while, he came over and touched Su Jinmu's stomach, pressing his palm against her soft waist and abdomen through her clothes.

Su Jinmu: "???"

"What are you doing?"

Su Jinmu clicked her tongue and looked at him with an ambiguous expression.

Li Xin smiled gently, "I'm afraid the young master might eat too much in his excitement."

Su Jinmu raised an eyebrow, "When you're out having fun, it's okay to eat too much once in a while."

Li Xin still smiled, her lips curving upwards. "It's inconvenient if you're too full; the young master will feel uncomfortable."

Su Jinmu: "..."

Su Jinmu: "…………"

Su Jinmu looked up at him with a look of astonishment, shoved the meat skewer in her hand into Li Xin's mouth, and pushed him away with her palm against his face, saying, "Behave yourself."

Li Xin chuckled, then took the piece of meat with a quick bite, turned his face to the young master's palm, and gave it a dangerous, entwined lick.

The vengeful ghost stared intently: "It smells so good, so good, so good."
