Chapter 9 Evil Dragon, do you prefer your bed to be dry or damp when you sleep? (2) Li Yuheng slid down from the pile of gems and sat down in front of Shu Bai, quickly crossing his legs.
He deliberately leaned his head closer, blinking his eyes, "Hey, do you want me to try a different way of helping you?"
Shu Bai subconsciously stepped back, staring at him warily: "What kind of help method are you going to use?"
"I'll help you vent. My cooking skills are pretty good, I guarantee you'll be satisfied~"
Shu Bai frowned, clearly not understanding: "What skill? You know how to massage?"
"massage?"
Li Yuheng paused for a moment, then laughed so hard his shoulders shook. "Yes, yes, it's a massage, a special kind of massage. I guarantee it'll be much more comfortable than you messing around with it yourself."
"...You, a knight, know this?"
“It’s always good to have more skills, especially with the job market so competitive these days. Even a knight needs a side hustle.” Li Yuheng rubbed his hands together. “How about giving it a try? You’re feeling pretty down right now, so why not give it a shot?”
Shu Bai stared at him for a few seconds, then suddenly sneered: "Li Yuheng, do you think I become stupid when I'm in heat?"
"No way!" Li Yuheng immediately protested, "I genuinely wanted to help. Look at you, sweating like that, breathing so heavily, you must be feeling terrible, right?"
He reached out to touch Shu Bai's forehead, but Shu Bai slapped his hand away.
"Don't give me that." Shu Bai said breathlessly, "You never have good intentions when you make that face."
"Really not this time! I just saw you were upset and wanted to help you. If you don't want to, that's fine too. I can just stay here and chat with you."
Shu Bai stared at him for a long time, seemingly trying to determine the truth or falsehood of his words.
Finally, he leaned back wearily against the pile of gems and closed his eyes: "...No need. Just stay quiet."
Li Yuheng quietly shut his mouth.
But his eyes were still darting around.
After a while, Shu Bai suddenly spoke up: "...It really hurts."
Li Yuheng immediately leaned closer: "I told you so! Let me help you, okay?"
Shu Bai opened her eyes, looking at him with a complicated expression: "Are you sure you can?"
"Of course!" Li Yuheng patted his chest to assure him, "I've done my research on this."
"...Why are you researching this?"
Shu Bai couldn't help but think to himself: Now even being a knight requires mastering this kind of skill??
"For this day. I knew this day would come."
As Li Yuheng spoke, he pulled Shu Bai up and turned him around nimbly so that he could lean against his chest.
Before Shu Bai could react, he had already gripped both of Shu Bai's wrists tightly with one hand.
Why are you grabbing my hand?!
Shu Bai was forced to lean his head back on Li Yuheng's shoulder, a position that made him feel somewhat helpless.
Li Yuheng lowered his head, his chin brushing against his sparse white hair.
"I'm afraid you won't be able to stand it and will scratch me. My clothes are brand new, it wouldn't look good if you scratched them. Besides, your hands can really hurt when you scratch me."
Shu Bai was so angry at his ridiculous reason that she almost laughed. She turned her head away to avoid his close breath: "...You always have so many reasons. Let go, I won't scratch you."
“That won’t do,” Li Yuheng shook his head. “You dragon, you’ve broken your word far too often. Last time you said you’d never kidnap a princess again, but then you turned around and abducted the second princess of the neighboring country.”
"She was the one who first insulted my taste in caves!"
Shu Bai instinctively retorted, then realized the topic had been steered away and became even angrier. "Li Yuheng! Stop changing the subject! Let go of my hand!"
"Don't rush, let me give you a massage first to relieve your tension."
"You call this a massage?" Shu Bai gritted his teeth. "What you're doing is clearly—"
Before he could finish speaking, Li Yuheng suddenly pressed down hard with his hand.
"Well!"
"See, it works, doesn't it?"
Shu Bai suddenly arched her back: "You...you call this a massage?!"
“A unique technique.” Li Yuheng’s tone was relaxed, but the strength in his hands did not lessen at all. “Relax, the more tense you are, the more uncomfortable it will be.”
"Relax my ass!" Shu Bai struggled, but was held down firmly. "You clearly are... you are..."
"What do you mean? Help you solve the problem? Or do you prefer to tough it out on your own?"
Shu Bai was so angry that he trembled all over.
"Li Yuheng...you wait..."
"Wait for what?" Li Yuheng chuckled. "Wait until you're better and I'm roasted to a crisp? You've said that sixty-five times already."
His hands didn't stop moving, and his mouth didn't stop either: "Seriously, is your dragon's mating season really this troublesome? What do dragons without mates do? Do they just get through it on their own?"
"What's it to you...?"
"Just curious. After all, I'm currently helping a dragon get through its heat cycle, so I need to understand the basics."
"Who asked for your help!" Shu Bai struggled violently. "Let me go!"
"Isn't it a bit late to say this now?" Li Yuheng exerted a little force, and was pleased to hear Shu Bai gasp. "But you agreed to it just now."
"...I agree to the massage!"
"This is a massage. A special massage."
"You call this... a massage?"
"Otherwise what?"
Shu Bai was speechless, so she simply closed her eyes and pretended to be dead.
Li Yuheng didn't mind: "See, I'll help you solve it, and you'll feel more comfortable. Haha, you don't need to be so polite with me. We're practically family, we've fought sixty-five times already, what's a little favor like this?"
Shu Bai suddenly opened her eyes, struggled to turn her head and glared at Li Yuheng: "When did I say thank you?!"
"It's only a matter of time. They haven't said it yet, but they definitely will later. I've been providing such excellent service, shouldn't you show your appreciation?"
"You call this service?! And don't you think it's weird to say these things at a time like this?!"
Li Yuheng's hand suddenly stopped moving, and the relaxed expression on his face froze.
"Huh?" He blinked, as if just realizing something. "So you find it strange too?"
"Nonsense! Isn't this situation strange?!"
"I thought you didn't notice!" Li Yuheng said with a hint of surprise, as if he had discovered something new. "You didn't resist much just now. I thought that's how it is for dragons during their heat cycle, and that anyone can help you."
Shu Bai: "..."
He looked at Li Yuheng with utter despair.
Li Yuheng chuckled softly and stepped back slightly.
The distance was just right, allowing Shu Bai to clearly see what he looked like at that moment.
His well-defined face carried his usual nonchalant smile; his nose was high and straight, and his jawline was clean and sharp.
What's most striking are his eyes, which usually gleam with a cunning light, but at this moment they are exceptionally focused, with Shu Bai clearly reflected in his deep pupils.
The next second, Li Yuheng lowered his head without warning and covered his pale lips with hers.
Shu Bai froze, his eyes widened suddenly, and he even stopped breathing.
He could clearly feel Li Yuheng's nose pressed intimately against his cheek, his warm breath brushing against his skin.
In that instant, he raised one eyebrow in surprise, completely frozen in place as if he had been struck by a spell.
Then, the cute little dragon started blowing bubbles.
Li Yuheng clearly sensed something and released his lips:
Wow!
