Chapter 118 Mo Li
Shu Ning looked at Mo Li in front of her, and thinking about what she had promised him for tonight, she avoided his gaze and dared not look him in the eye.
But she accidentally caught a glimpse of Xuan Lin beside her, who was focused on grilling his meat.
In the glow of the campfire, his silver hair resembled snowflakes under the setting sun, giving one a sense of alternating hot and cold.
Just like his heart at this moment.
Shu Ning was in a daze; that look was just like the one she had seen when she went mushroom picking alone that day.
Feeling the gaze of the female, he looked up at Shu Ning, the restless fire deep in his eyes hidden in the firelight reflected in his pupils—fiery and profound.
After their eyes met, she quickly looked away.
Thinking about this, Shu Ning suddenly remembered something. She turned around and took Xiao Chong's hand. "Brother Xiao Chong, I have something I want to ask you."
"Hmm?" Xiao Chong's voice was deep. "What's wrong, Ningning?"
"Brother Xiao Chong, come with me." She took his hand and was about to get up.
Xiao Chong got up with her.
After walking a little further away, Shu Ning looked around to make sure no one was there. She looked up and leaned closer to him, "Brother Xiao Chong, I have a secret to tell you."
Seeing the mysterious look on the female's face, Xiao Chong's lips curled slightly as he leaned down. "What does Ningning want to tell Brother Xiao Chong?"
Shu Ning glanced around again, and after confirming that no one was around, asked, "Brother Xiao Chong, if I told you I have a way to prevent myself from getting pregnant, would you believe me?"
Upon hearing this news, Xiao Chong's eyes flashed with surprise. He asked seriously, his tone slightly nervous, "Ningning, you're not taking any kind of medicine, are you?"
Upon hearing this, Shu Ning realized that he had misunderstood her and immediately denied it, "Of course not, this is my own ability."
"In short, it's almost harmless to your body," she said earnestly.
“And I didn’t want any of theirs,” she added.
Knowing that Shu Ning had this ability, his eyes flickered slightly. "That's good, Ning Ning."
"If Ningning doesn't want to have children with them in the future, she can stay with Brother Xiao Chong. Brother Xiao Chong guarantees that they won't be able to touch Ningning." A dangerous glint flashed in his eyes as he thought of her other beastly husbands.
Upon hearing this, Shu Ning froze, then thought of the scenes of him fighting with other beastmen, and decided to let it go.
"Brother Xiao Chong, do you want a child?" she asked. "If you do, then I won't do it."
Xiao Chong thought for a moment, then pulled her into his arms and said gently, "Our Ningning is still young, let's not do it yet."
He pressed his forehead against her head, his voice low and deep, "We can talk about the baby later, no rush."
He was indeed worried about that, especially considering her many lovers...
"Ningning, this feature is great, but don't put too much pressure on yourself," he said, patting her back to comfort her.
Although he didn't know how she acquired this ability, the thought of waking up in her bed after being in the desert that day made him believe what she said.
"Mmm..." Shu Ning nodded in his arms.
"Just Ningning, you can only tell Brother Xiao Chong about this," Xiao Chong said. His other beast husbands were all unpredictable, so it was best not to let them know.
“I know, Brother Xiao Chong. I didn’t tell anyone but you.”
Hearing Shu Ning's words, Xiao Chong's eyes flickered slightly, and he tightened his arms around her. "Yes, Ningning did the right thing. Let's go back."
"good."
They then returned to their seats.
As soon as Shu Ning sat down, Mo Li pulled her into his arms, leaned close, his golden vertical pupils fixed on her, and said in a deep voice, "Don't forget about us."
Looking at his pale, melancholic, handsome face, which was exuding extreme allure, Shu Ning couldn't help but swallow hard. "No...no way."
Mo Li lowered her eyes, looking at the rise and fall of her body with her breath, smelling the fragrance of her hair, and leaned close to her neck to take a deep breath.
Then he slowly exhaled, his hot breath passing by Shu Ning's ear, and a blush instantly appeared on her face.
Then, Mo Li held the grilled meat to Shu Ning's mouth. Shu Ning opened her mouth, and Mo Li put the meat in.
The beastmen standing nearby noticed this scene, but on the surface they all remained calm.
Xuanmo was grilling meat, but his mind wasn't on the skewers in his hands; they were already burnt, but he didn't notice.
Jin Tong was sharpening a bone knife, the sound of the knife in her hand growing increasingly shrill.
Xuan Lin chewed on the fragrant grilled meat but couldn't taste its deliciousness.
"Eat this." Seeing that Mo Li kept feeding Shu Ning meat, Xiao Chong handed her a piece of fruit.
Just as Shu Ning took the fruit from Xiao Chong, she saw that the top part of Xuan Mo's grilled meat was already burning.
"Xuanmo!" she called out.
When Xuan Mo heard Shu Ning call him, he snapped out of his daze. He looked up and saw the roasted meat in his hand. His eyes darkened, and he threw it into the fire.
They skewered it again and grilled it again.
Seeing that he was so absent-minded, Shu Ning guessed that he was thinking about the Black Serpent Clan.
Her mission wasn't finished yet; the Black Pool had exploded, and Xuanmo had been brought back.
But how can I help him resolve his worries...?
"What are you thinking about?" Xiao Chong noticed that she was looking away and patted her head.
"It's nothing." Shu Ning felt Xiao Chong stroking her head, and suddenly her eyes lit up as she thought of something.
She originally wanted to ask Xiao Chong, but then she realized that she had never seen his parents in her memory, so she turned away.
"Mo Li, I want to ask you a question."
Mo Li stopped grilling the meat and looked up at her.
"If the parents of someone you care about know that the person doesn't want to do something, but still keep pressuring them to do it, how would you help them?"
After Shu Ning finished speaking, she looked at him, waiting for his reply.
Upon hearing her question, Mo Li immediately took her hand and asked, "Ningning, is someone forcing you to do something?"
“No, it wasn’t me,” Shu Ning said. “If, this is just a hypothetical scenario.”
“Hmm…” Mo Li said, “The people I care about…” He glanced at Shu Ning.
"If her parents force her to do something she resists, I will try to persuade her parents first."
"What if you can't persuade them?" Shu Ning asked.
"If you can't persuade her, take her away." Yan said, having somehow gotten up and sat down behind Shu Ning and Mo Li.
“This…” Shu Ning turned around and glanced at Yan, who was sitting behind her. His captivating purple-gold eyes were looking at her.
He cupped her face in his hands and said, "If anyone dares to bully you, tell me, and I'll teach them a lesson. Ideally... make them disappear forever!" A shadow flashed in his eyes, but he quickly returned to normal.
"No one bullied...me." Shu Ning looked at his face, which was so close to hers, almost touching him; the atmosphere was extremely ambiguous.
Seeing that he was about to open his mouth, Mo Li immediately pulled her to her side.
He glanced at the male next to Shu Ning, a hint of disgust in his eyes. He didn't want to taste another male tonight.
Shu Ning breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the nightmare.
When Yan saw Mo Li's actions, she raised an eyebrow but wasn't angry. She then got up and left.
"Are you full?" Mo Li asked in a low voice, looking at the female in his arms.
“Mm,” Shu Ning replied.
He then got up, picked up Shu Ning, and left.
Seeing her being picked up, the beastmen remained silent, while Xuanmo was the first to get up and leave.
Jin Tong followed.
At this moment, only Xiao Chong and Xuan Lin remained by the campfire.
The competition on the stage was still in full swing, while the bonfire burning nearby crackled and popped from time to time. The two men kept their heads down and continued to roast their meat in silence.
At this moment, Shu Ning was being held by Mo Li. She looked up at Mo Li's sculpted face and blushed as she thought about what was to come.
At this moment, it was as if a ferocious beast was roaring wildly inside Mo Li's body. The journey was not long, but at this moment, he felt that the journey today was longer than usual.
He held her tightly and strode towards his cave with lightning speed...
