Chapter 64 Heartbeat

In the dim room, only the faint light from the computer was left, making the light look slightly charming.

The heartbeat in the stern red eyes was confused and disorganized for a moment.

The eye contact from too close a distance was like a scorching hot kiss licking the eyes, slightly burning them.

His long eyelashes couldn't help but tremble slightly. The next second, he half-closed his eyes, his voice slightly hoarse: "I..."

He seemed to want to explain why he was there.

But I can't seem to find a suitable reason.

Finally, he uttered two hoarse words: "Sorry..."

Jiang Mian lowered his eyes and looked at him, a hint of surprise flashing across his dark eyes.

Every time the future Lin Yu woke up, his eyes were peaceful. After staring at her for a long time with his red eyes, he would stand up and leave.

There is no need to explain anything to her.

After all, he is Lord Rin, and she is his captive.

Now the situation is reversed, he is her beast slave, and their status has changed accordingly.

Jiang Mian felt secretly happy for some reason.

Okay, okay, things have changed. In the future, you kept me in captivity, and now it’s my turn to keep you in captivity.

Besides, the young Lin Yu was not that good at hiding his emotions. The moment he woke up and looked at her, a trace of confusion flashed in his red eyes, and she saw it clearly.

Jiang Mian curled his lips and smiled, then slowly spoke: "It's okay, it's okay. No matter when, as long as you are in a manic phase, I won't be angry if you come to knock on my door. Just come and knock!"

"Yeah." Lin Yu responded softly with a slightly hoarse voice.

But his attention still couldn't help but be attracted by the touch of his hand. He could feel that his hand was still holding Jiang Mian's hand, and he could feel the touch of their skin tightly pressed together. He was reluctant to pull his hand back, but he couldn't help but feel stiff, afraid that if he moved, this hand would leave.

"I told you to take good care of your wound when you get back, didn't you listen to me?" Jiang Mian said slowly, "My left hand is disabled now, and it would take some effort for me to help you with your right hand. Do you want me, a disabled person, to help you with your wound?"

As she spoke, she slightly grasped his hand that was holding her down and shook it gently.

In the future, even if Jiang Mian broke her leg, she would have to get up in the middle of the night to help Lin Yu heal it, because this was her job, and Lin Yu was her boss, who paid her salary, and was also her beast master, so Jiang Mian naturally did not dare to neglect it.

But things have changed, and Jiang Mian thought that this couldn't go on like this anymore.

"You, treat your own wound here with me now." Jiang Mian originally wanted to ask him to go back and treat his wound himself, but she was worried that he would not treat his wound when he returned, so it was better to let him treat his wound in front of her.

So she asked him to treat the wound here.

"Okay." Lin Yu had hidden all his emotions in his red eyes again.

At this moment, the narrow red eyes became calm again.

His snake tail turned back into legs, and he sat cross-legged on the ground next to Jiang Mian's bed. His fingers just gently withdrew from Jiang Mian's fingers because he could not find any other reason to continue holding hands.

So, he sat cross-legged on the ground, took out the medicine from the hub space, and began to slowly treat his wounds.

The air became quiet again.

Lin Yu could feel Jiang Mian's gaze on him. He half-closed his eyes and seemed calm, but his heart was beating violently.

His heart seemed to feel slightly hot and numb because of this sight.

He liked that she always looked at him like this, and that he was the only orc in her eyes.

Jiang Mian looked at Lin Yu, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground tending to his own wounds, and asked silently with concern: "Do you have a headache?"

Today he had a fight with Chi Lin and his head was broken. He clearly already had a headache, and yet he still got into a fight and ended up breaking his head!

Do you know how much trouble she will have to spend trying to cure this headache in the future? And it still can't be cured!

We must cure it now while it is not too serious.

When Lin Yu heard this, the fact that she had kissed the scorpion orc flashed through her mind again. A feeling of depression surged in her heart and her head began to ache slightly again.

He was silent for a long time, then said one word coldly: "It hurts..."

Then he didn't say a word during the period of silence while he treated his wound.

Jiang Mian paused and knew that he was unhappy. Although she didn't know why he was unhappy, she knew that he must have a headache again.

She reached out and gently covered his head, saying softly, "Don't think about unhappy things."

He must have thought of something unhappy, but she just didn't know what it was that made him unhappy.

Lin Yu was stunned. Could she have noticed it so perceptively?

He thought it wasn't obvious that he was unhappy.

Perhaps he thought that she wouldn't care about him so carefully, to the point of even noticing his emotions.

Do you really...care...about him?

Seeing that he still didn't speak, Jiang Mian gently tried to speak: "What's up with you? If you don't mind, tell me. I'm happy to listen, and I'm sure you'll feel better if you speak it out."

When Lin Yu heard her words, his blood-stained fingers clenched slightly.

He slowly raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Mian who was sitting cross-legged on the bed. His narrow red eyes fell quietly on her, and various emotions surged in his eyes.

My heart is torn with all kinds of uncomfortable bitterness.

But in the end he just said softly: "Orcs and humans cannot be together."

He couldn't be with her, and neither could anyone else.

Jiang Mian paused, wondering what Lin Yu meant by that. Did he have a favorite human?

Perhaps the young beast master has a human he likes?

But Jiang Mian remembered that he had never had anyone he liked and had always been alone.

And Rinyu has always hated humans. Well, I don’t know why he doesn’t hate her as a human.

This is still a question that Jiang Mian has not found the answer to.

But thinking back to the present, perhaps the young beast master did have a human he liked, but she just didn't know it.

Jiang Mian pondered for a moment and then spoke silently, "Although beastmen and humans can't be together, I heard from my neighbors that it's fine for a master and a beast slave to be together as long as they don't have children."

And through knowledge gained from neighbors, I learned that some healers who have husbands can also hang out with beast slaves.

What's more, some healers with higher levels of healing ability have extremely high status and enjoy multiple husbands and multiple beast slaves.

Because the birth rate of pure humans is getting lower and lower, in order to increase the birth rate, polyandry is allowed, and if you don't find a partner before the age of 20, the empire will forcibly assign you a partner.

Despite this, the birth rate that was getting lower and lower could not be saved. Humans were eventually eliminated and the orc age arrived.

Because that's what the future holds.

But now, this reminded her that the original owner was already nineteen years old.

I'll be twenty in a few months. If I don't find a partner and register for marriage, someone will be assigned to me.

Jiang Mian:......
