Upon hearing Su Li's question, Xuan Qing's body stiffened almost imperceptibly for a moment, but he quickly returned to a relaxed state.
If it were him when he first came into this world, he would still be very bothered and angry about being seen naked by a mortal he had just met, or even having certain parts of his body touched.
But things are different now.
He had already developed romantic feelings for the mortal woman before him.
Cats are different from humans. As feline fairies, they are born with stronger jealousy and possessiveness than mortals. Because of these strong emotions, they find it harder to accept the pain of being rejected when they are in love.
Therefore, in order to avoid this pain and to gain the extreme satisfaction of winning the approval of their beloved, cats will always do their best to show all their advantages to the person they admire when courting.
This is an innate instinct of the cats in their feline clan when it comes to matters of the heart.
Even though Xuanqing has lived for over seven hundred years, and even though he has meticulously integrated his speech and behavior into the habits of mortals, he still cannot learn the reserve and hypocrisy of mortals when facing the woman he likes.
Regardless of whether Su Li can reciprocate his feelings, for Xuan Qing himself, the moment he fell in love with Su Li, he could openly display everything about his body to Su Li.
However, Xuanqing naturally couldn't say these things directly to Su Li.
Because mortals are different from their cat race.
When ordinary people pursue someone they admire, they will try their best to show themselves, but they are ashamed to show themselves directly, and may even avoid the other person's body until they are accepted by the other person, and only then will they have the opportunity to show themselves!
So, in order to soothe Su Li's emotions, he took the initiative to pull the blanket over his private parts.
The boy's beautiful, jewel-like eyes flickered slightly, a strand of black hair slipping from his shoulder to his chest. Xuan Qing met Su Li's gaze, sat up cross-legged from under the covers, and spoke calmly:
"At that time I couldn't speak, and you never touched me again afterward, so I forgot about it. As for this time..."
At this point, Xuan Qing suddenly cleared his throat before continuing:
"I didn't expect that when you kissed me, I was so happy that I couldn't control the energy in my body."
Zuli: “…!…”
The girl's dark eyes slightly opened!
Xuanqing's explanation sounded reasonable, but the sentence "You kissed me, and I was so happy" made Su Li's usually steady heartbeat jump out of control!
She inexplicably felt that Xuanqing's words seemed to have a hidden meaning!
She opened her mouth slightly, but ultimately didn't pursue the matter further.
There's no point in delving deeper, after all, she and the current 'Xuanqing' are complete strangers!
Right now, Su Li's gaze was fixed on Xuan Qing's naked, inverted triangle-shaped upper body. Her consciousness rummaged through her spatial storage for a while, eventually pulling out a set of pure black, largest-size men's autumn/winter pajamas, along with a pair of men's underwear, which she tossed into Xuan Qing's arms.
"Put your clothes on first!"
As Su Li spoke, she got up and came out of the bedroom.
She needed some time to clear her head.
That was, in a way, her mistake.
Because the original book only states that Xuanqing is a cat demon and has always been in cat form, she naturally assumed that Xuanqing could not transform into human form, which led to this embarrassing situation!
But now that I've seen it, washed it, and touched it, I can't erase the memory from my mind.
Su Li sighed, feeling a bit of a headache.
She felt she should be grateful that Xuan Qing... that boy with such exquisitely beautiful features that he was almost demonic, didn't seem like the kind of innocent boy who would suddenly say to her, "You touched me, you have to take responsibility for me."
Otherwise, she really would want to crawl into a hole and disappear!
After Su Li came out of the bedroom, she first went downstairs to add a few shovelfuls of coal to the boiler, then turned around and went back upstairs to prepare breakfast.
The kitchen is on the first floor.
Su Li came up from the basement and had just reached the sofa on the first floor when suddenly her vision blurred and a black figure suddenly stood in front of her!
Su Li was startled by the sudden movement and quickly stopped in her tracks, swaying slightly to avoid bumping into the person in front of her!
She looked up, her eyes still showing a hint of surprise, and fell silent when she saw the boy in front of her.
She felt it was necessary to make some rules with the cat.
"Xuanqing, although you are a cat, now that you have taken human form, my house is only so big. I don't need you to expend your energy to move yourself. Can you walk normally?"
Xuan Qing realized he had frightened Su Li, so after hearing Su Li's helpless words, he didn't argue and obediently nodded.
"Sorry, I'm not used to walking in human form yet."
Then he watched Su Li walk towards the kitchen and followed her.
Su Li opened the refrigerator door, thought for a moment, and took out a zucchini and an egg.
She placed the refrigerator here intentionally; she originally had enough space and didn't need it.
However, Su Li felt that putting some pre-apocalyptic items in the house, such as some food in the refrigerator, some clothes in the closet, and a few toys on the sofa, would add more traces of life to the house and reduce the cold and desolate feeling of the apocalypse.
Zuli plans to have zucchini and egg pies this morning, and also make a soup.
Xuan Qing looked at what Su Li had taken out, and after seeing Su Li scoop out more than a bowl of flour, he couldn't help but ask:
"what are you up to?"
Su Li glanced at him sideways, then quickly looked away. She was still a little unsure how to look at the boy beside her.
Or rather, it should be said that it refers to men.
Although he was Xuanqing, the transformation from animal to human form made Su Li feel as if a stranger had suddenly appeared beside her, and she couldn't adapt to it quickly!
She answered quickly while boiling water:
"Make meat pies".
Although Xuanqing's face looks very youthful, when he stands up and stands next to Su Li, you can tell that he doesn't look youthful at all!
That's just an illusion created by her overly beautiful face.
He stood beside Su Li, his tall figure, nearly 1.9 meters, hidden under the fabric. His broad but well-muscled shoulders and back made him look like a human box two sizes larger than Su Li, casting a shadow that almost completely enveloped her.
But none of these could compare to the oppressive feeling emanating from his deep, dark blue peach blossom eyes.
Perhaps it was the color of those eyes that gave off such a calm feeling, always subtly conveying a sense of detachment and coldness, that made one feel a sense of being spied on after staring into each other's eyes for a while.
It's as if, under the other person's gaze, everything in your heart is laid bare.
