"Who was speaking just now? Have orcs come to our house?"

In the height of summer, I heard an unfamiliar male voice, so close, it felt like it was right next to my ear…

It's deep and powerful, and surprisingly pleasant to listen to...

She pushed Xingmu away in confusion, looking around in bewilderment.

I didn't see any strangers. Is this a ghost?

Are there ghosts in the Beast World?

Sheng Xia lowered her almond-shaped eyes slightly, and a sudden thought sent chills down her spine. She could time travel; encountering ghosts didn't seem so strange after all…

Seeing Xing Mu standing there dumbfounded, Sheng Xia didn't notice his expression and rushed into his arms, her voice filled with fear and urgency.

"Xingmu! Did you hear anything?"

In the height of summer, a few strands of Xingmu's long, black hair fell onto his shoulders and into the crook of his neck, smelling wonderful.

Xingmu was overjoyed to see that Shengxia was still willing to talk to him, and he cried tears of joy. He carefully smoothed her hair, but he found it difficult to ask her question.

Do you want to tell the truth?

Will Sister Shengxia think he's faking it?

His voice is so awful...

They'll probably find it unpleasant.

If he doesn't like it... he'll figure something out.

She asked, and he couldn't and didn't want to lie to her.

This time, without using a high-pitched voice, he tentatively asked, "Sister Shengxia?"

His voice was deep and hoarse, like muffled thunder rolling across a wasteland, carrying a natural, rugged quality.

Hearing this in the height of summer was like a thunderclap, sending chills down her spine.

Is there really a ghost?!

She would even imitate her dog, Xingmu, calling him "sister"...

"Get away!" Sheng Xia couldn't help but shout to bolster her courage.

The Beast God knew that she was afraid of the dark and ghosts.

Go away?

Upon hearing the two words she uttered, Xingmu felt a sharp pain in his heart, his eyes reddened, and he swallowed hard.

As expected, Sister Shengxia was disgusted...

She told me to leave...

He knew that no female would like a male with an unpleasant voice.

Xingmu's eyes instantly reddened, his hands hung down naturally, his blue eyes stared unfocused ahead, his dimples disappeared, and the tip of his high nose was red.

Summer Sister doesn't want him anymore.

What should he do now?

He can shut up, he can stay silent for the rest of his life.

I don't want to leave Sister Shengxia...

Leaving her... he felt like he was suffocating just thinking about it.

Xiaxia really likes his high-pitched voice, can't he keep using it...?

He worked so hard to get Shengxia to see and accept him, is his good life coming to an end?

Xingmu was disheartened and felt that his beastly life was bleak as he was about to leave Shengxia.

After not receiving a reply for a while, Shengxia, having calmed down, realized that she had overreacted and stood up straight, feeling a little embarrassed.

She tucked a stray hair behind her ear, looked up at Xingmu, and said shyly, "Xingmu..."

Seeing the tears on his face, I was surprised for a moment. Why was he crying?!

Are you crying from fright?

No way, it doesn't look like a timid beast.

His blue eyes were moist, clear and bright, yet also melancholic, with a beautiful sense of brokenness.

"What's wrong?" Sheng Xia tilted her head and waved her hand in front of his eyes: "Xing..."

Xingmu grabbed her hand, looked intently at Shengxia, and kissed her hand.

Just like before, she carefully pleaded in a high-pitched voice, "Please don't hate me, okay? I'll be good from now on, and I'll always speak carefully, please don't leave me..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he stepped forward and hugged Shengxia tightly, unwilling to let go.

He didn't know when it started, but his gaze could no longer leave Sister Shengxia. Among the beastmen, his first instinct was to look for her.

Her clear and melodious voice was tinged with tears.

Unexpectedly sexy~

Hearing that voice made Sheng Xia's eyes light up, and she suddenly realized what was happening and looked up at Xing Mu.

Was the veiled meaning in her speech what she meant?

"Was that you speaking just now?"

Your voice is so lovely!

"I'm sorry..." Xing Mu lowered his eyes, habitually revealing his most attractive angle. "It's my fault. I deliberately seduced you. I wanted to...you, I wanted to kiss you, I wanted you to only see my best side..."

Xingmu became more and more upset as she spoke, tears streaming down her cheeks and wetting her shoulders.

He cried so hard, but he looked beautiful.

Sheng Xia blinked her eyes, and only then did she understand the cause and effect. She felt a little sorry for her and a little amused.

I patted him on the back, thinking about how to comfort him.

She simply couldn't fathom how a male could speak in a high-pitched voice, and moreover, how so successfully at it.

You must have practiced a lot, right?

Xingmu wept uncontrollably, his clear blue eyes gradually darkening. He wanted to kiss her, to possess her.

I don't want to leave her...

He also wanted to...

But he couldn't bear to part with it.

Xingmu cried terribly.

He opened his mouth and bit her lip, the moment they touched, it became a very light kiss filled with tenderness.

She kissed him while crying, murmuring that she was calling him "sister".

Sheng Xia's heart trembled slightly, feeling both heartache and a secret thrill. She nudged Xing Mu and raised her hand to cup his face.

As a result, they found they had nowhere to start, and all they could do were shed tears.

She looked incredibly cute and chubby.

She lowered her hands, wrapped her arms around his waist, pressed her cheek against his chest, and said in a sweet, soft voice,

"I didn't say I didn't want you. I like your dimples, I like your smile, I like you as a beast. Your voice doesn't matter. Besides... it's not bad."

Xingmu, who had been crying silently, paused for a moment, hiccuped, and then carefully placed his hand on her smooth little hand.

He tentatively moved his face closer to hers, and when he found that she didn't resist, he was secretly delighted and carefully nuzzled her affectionately.
