He pressed the bloodstains on his palm against her neck.

He traded pain for the sweetness in her mouth.

Li Heng kissed her deeply, slowly capturing her lips and tongue, entwining and lingering. Listening to her inner voice, he changed the angle little by little until he found the way she couldn't resist, and then kissed her deeply without restraint.

Shen Zhiyi was still in a daze when he tasted her all over.

She clutched the hem of his shirt, her fingertips curling up, her consciousness fading, even her heartbeats growing weaker...

"Ugh...no..."

I can't kiss anymore... I'm going to go weak...

Li Heng caught her and pressed her against a large rock beside him. "Isn't she heavy enough, Miss?"

He deliberately misinterpreted her meaning and demanded a kiss even more fiercely.

It looks like a snake that has just caught its prey.

With his rough tongue, he mercilessly entwined around her...

Shen Zhiyi's breathing grew hot, her face flushed, and she felt dizzy from the weight of his body pressing down on her.

"No, it's not..."

I'm so hot...

Why do I have no energy left...?

"That's because it's not deep enough." Li Heng gripped her fingertips, pried open her lips, and plunged in...

Shen Zhiyi was in a daze, her hands unconsciously wrapped around his neck, her toes curled up tightly.

how so……

She's almost out of breath...

Amidst the chaos, she heard the gentle sound of the river flowing beside her.

It was exceptionally clear in the quiet night.

She seemed to flow along with it.

In this night that belongs only to them...

Shen Zhiyi was carried back to the camp by Li Heng.

When she came to her senses, she realized that she had been tricked by Li Heng.

"Li Heng! You lied to me!"

"Your foot isn't injured at all!"

With a smile on his lips, Li Heng gently placed her in the tent and said without changing his expression, "You're injured."

“But…” he leaned down and whispered, “The young lady’s kiss heals all.”

Shen Zhiyi blushed instantly.

"you!"

She turned her head away, her heart pounding wildly.

[Damn it, damn it!]

I clearly expect him to be my dog, but he keeps defying me...

Don't I have any pride?

Li Heng lowered his eyes, a slight smile curving his lips. He pushed up his glasses and extended his hand to her.

"My blood has stained the young lady."

He stared at her slender, white neck and said in a hoarse voice, "Shall I wipe it for you, Miss?"

Shen Zhiyi turned her head and saw his palm was cut, a real and undeniable wound, and her heart softened again.

"No need."

"I can wipe it myself."

Li Heng acted as if he hadn't heard, and pulled out a wet wipe. "How can that be?"

"I made it, so naturally I'll clean it up."

He knelt before her, leaned in, and enveloped her in his shadow, his deep eyes gripping her neck.

Bend down and wipe it carefully, little by little.

His breath hit her neck.

His thin lips almost touched her ear...

Shen Zhiyi turned her head, her fingers clenching, not understanding why he had to get so close when he was just wiping his neck...

The cool, damp wipe and his burning fingertips brushed together across the delicate, sensitive skin of her neck.

And then there was his scorching breath, sometimes near, sometimes far…

Shen Zhiyi trembled uncontrollably.

Her cheeks flushed as she grasped his wrist.

"I already said, no need..."

"Li Heng, if you don't listen to me..."

A glint of light flashed behind Li Heng's glasses. He straightened up, lowered his gaze, and stared intently at her slightly swollen lips.

His Adam's apple moved silently.

"What will happen to the young lady if she doesn't behave?"

"Shall I be punished?"

Shen Zhiyi was stunned.

punish?

yes……

She could have easily taught him a lesson...

Li Heng pursed his lips and, seeing her confused and hesitant gaze, "thoughtfully" offered her a solution.

"The young lady kicked that snake away today, saving me."

"I'd be willing to let the young lady kick me."

He pulled her hand to his abs, his voice hoarse, "I'd even be willing to be kicked here..."

Shen Zhiyi's eyes widened in disbelief as she looked down at their clasped hands.

And beneath her palm, through a layer of clothing, were his abs.

He swallowed hard.

Is there really such a good thing?

Li Heng gazed at her intently. "Let's take the fourth photo here."

"No matter how the young lady wants to take the photos, I will cooperate."

"Never...resist."

Shen Zhiyi noticed the wound on his palm and, thinking of the wilderness survival first aid kit she had brought, suddenly had an idea.

"You said it yourself."

"Wait a minute, don't blame me for going too far."

Li Heng lowered his gaze, concealing the fleeting glint in his eyes, and nodded.

Shen Zhiyi crawled to the corner, rummaged through the first-aid kit, and first took Li Heng's hand to help him treat his wounds.

Looking at her drooping eyelashes and the way she was taking such good care of herself, Li Heng's expression softened.

How adorable, young lady.

Before "teaching" him a lesson, we need to help him heal his wounds first...

She is really sweet.

The lips are.

The heart is too.

Li Heng recalled the feeling of kissing her just now, and his throat suddenly became dry again.

How can those who have been blessed by the sweet rain be willing to return to the lonely desert?

He won't go back.

Tonight, he's going to get even more.

Li Heng's eyes darkened as he stared at her slender, white neck, like a predator locking onto its prey...
