Chapter 20
Shi Changyuan looked at Lin Ling, who had no idea what dangerous words he had said, and pulled her into his arms. Then, under her gaze, he leaned over and kissed away the tears.
"Don't cry."
Shi Changyuan followed the trace of the tears and kissed them all the way up.
"No disagreement."
The last kiss fell on Xiaohua's long eyelashes, and then Shi Changyuan lifted Xiaohua's head up so that she could look at him.
Shi Changyuan's expression was also very serious, his deep eyes concealed surging emotions, but when it came out, it was conveyed with caution and restraint.
"Lingling, you don't need to make any promises or guarantees to me."
"I will always be by Lingling's side."
Lin Ling's long eyelashes trembled again, with an unconscious uneasiness.
"Some human said something to Xiaohua, right?" Shenyuan guessed.
Lin Ling nodded hesitantly. Shi Changyuan seemed to sigh. He leaned close to Xiaohua's ear and said slowly and firmly, "Don't believe it, Xiaohua."
“We are different from humans.”
Shi Changyuan pulled Xiaohua into the room and sat on the small, cramped single sofa. He held Lin Ling tightly in his arms, hugging her intimately, as if this could eliminate the misunderstandings and barriers that had arisen before.
He repeatedly emphasized, "We are different from humans. Once we decide who we are, we will never change. Xiaohua will not change either. I know that."
"Xiaohua likes me and will always like me."
"Don't be afraid."
Lin Ling curled his lips after listening to these unreasonable words. Just when he opened his mouth to ask the other party how dare he be so sure, Shi Changyuan kissed him on the lips again.
As if he knew what Lin Ling wanted to ask, Shenyuan still spoke in a firm tone.
"I will make Xiaohua like me forever."
Xiaohua blinked her eyes, understood what Shenyuan said, and then her ears turned red as she muttered, "You are so narcissistic..."
"And!" Xiaohua emphasized, "I didn't cry!"
"Humans say that if a small pearl falls from the right eye, it means happiness."
Xiaohua is a stubborn and strong-willed girl throughout her life.
"Huh?" This was the first time Shi Changyuan had heard this statement. "Then why was Xiaohua so happy that she cried?"
"Is it because you like me?"
Xiaohua seemed to be poked. Her long eyelashes trembled faster, with a hint of panic and shyness, and her entire neck turned a beautiful pink again.
Most non-human creatures have no sense of shame and are very straightforward about everything. Perhaps because Xiaohua has lived among humans for a period of time and has been assimilated by humans, or perhaps it is Xiaobaihua's racial characteristics, she is more reserved and shy when it comes to expressing her emotions.
Shi Changyuan watched Lin Ling bite her lips, then suddenly dive into his arms, pretending not to hear anything and pretending to be an ostrich.
He thought Lin Ling would not answer, but within a few seconds, Shi Changyuan heard a mosquito-like reply coming from his chest.
"……Um."
"I like you."
Looking at Lin Ling, who was almost turning pink in his arms, his heart beat faster and faster, and he felt happier and happier.
He raised his little flowers into beautiful colors.
Shi Changyuan reached out and gently stroked Lin Ling's neck, pressing the light pink color to a darker color.
"I want to hear Lingling say it again in person." He seemed to be unsatisfied and wanted to use the same old trick again.
But once you've said it once, it doesn't seem that difficult to say it a second time.
Xiaohua poked her head out of his arms. Although her voice was still low, she looked at Shenyuan with sparkling eyes and repeated word by word very seriously, "I like you."
Shi Changyuan didn't see the color he imagined, and although he was a little disappointed, when Xiaohua said the word "like" sincerely, he couldn't help but feel happy and moved.
"Are we a couple now?"
"Of course."
"Then, can I kiss you?"
The little flower demon taught by humans was shy and gentlemanly. After waiting for his partner's consent, he moved closer all of a sudden. But when the distance between them was so close that their noses were almost touching, Lin Ling suddenly stopped.
He met Shenyuan's puzzled gaze and explained, "You need to close your eyes when kissing."
Shenyuan looked at Xiaohua, whose breath was all on him, and held Lin Ling's waist with his hands tighter. He didn't ask why, but just said, "Xiaohua looks very experienced."
"What's the saying about humans?" Xiao Hua thought about it and remembered it all at once. She reached out and patted Shen Yuan on the shoulder. "Even if you haven't eaten pork, you have seen pigs run!"
"It's just a love story. I've seen a lot of them!"
Shi Changyuan looked at Lin Ling steadily, smiled at first, and put his head on Xiao Huaduo's shoulder. In a place where Lin Ling couldn't see, he deliberately said in a very soft voice, "But I can't do it, what should I do?"
will not?
Xiaohua suddenly felt that he had regained the home advantage, without realizing the huge pit behind it. He straightened his back all of a sudden, and almost patted his chest to make a promise and then sell himself out.
"It's okay, I can teach you!"
Lin Ling thought happily, since he is here to teach Shen Yuan, doesn't that mean whatever he says must be the truth?
By then, he will be the one who calls the shots in this house. He can kiss if he wants to, and hug if he wants to. How can Shi Changyuan resist?
"Ahem." Xiaohua had a very good plan. She cleared her throat and began to talk about her first point. "When you are in a relationship, shouldn't you be different from before you confirm the relationship?"
Xiaohua taught step by step, "So, we can change the way we address each other."
Shi Changyuan nodded, and immediately followed suit, calling out, "Wife."
I didn't get any advantage at all. Xiaohua: ...
"That won't work." Xiaohua was dumbfounded and quickly denied it, "You can only be called that after you get married! You have to change it!"
Although Shenyuan was a little disappointed, fortunately, he nodded obediently, "Then what should I call you, baby?"
Shi Changyuan's baby's cry was so natural, and he called out alone. The deep voice hit Lin Ling's eardrum all of a sudden, numbing the ear from the base to the top of the head.
Then Shen Yuan discovered that his little flower's skin had turned a beautiful light pink again, tempting him to take a bite.
After the tingling sensation passed, Xiaohua immediately covered his ears. He felt that this was not right, this was not right, this should not be the case. Why was he still the one at a disadvantage?
So Xiaohua decided to turn the game around.
"Then what do you want me to call you?" Lin Ling blinked and yelled like a human, "Brother?"
Shenyuan's breathing stagnated. He grabbed Lin Ling's head and bit his lips.
In the first game between Xiaohua and Shenyuan, Xiaohua was eliminated with injuries.
So Lin Ling learned from his mistakes and decided to systematically learn the skills of dating. Why is it that when others are in love, the one who is not good at dating or lacks experience is always passive and is more likely to blush and be shy?
Xiaohua thought that according to the general situation, Shenyuan should be the one who blushes more easily.
How come it was the other way around when it came to him? There must be something wrong!
So Xiaohua borrowed a book about love from humans. The book contained various psychological analyses of love, a hundred things that couples can do, and various communication tips.
Even at the end of the book, there are various little ways to add interest.
Lin Ling finished reading the book alone, hiding under the quilt. By the end of the book, Xiaohua's face had turned yellow, and it had evolved from a white flower into a yellow flower.
It is such a sin that he took the initiative to accept the evil knowledge of mankind.
However, everyone said that Lin Ling had grown up and had a boyfriend, so she should study hard to avoid getting hurt.
Although Xiaohua didn't quite understand it at the time, he knew that kind-hearted people would definitely not cheat him!
When Shi Changyuan, who was deliberately sent away, returned to the villa, Xiao Huaduo was holding a piece of paper densely written on with many traces of scribbles and corrections.
"What is this?" Shi Changyuan handed the freshly baked, still hot bread to Lin Ling and asked.
“Here are the 100 things I’ve compiled from the book on humanity that we can do!”
"Besides, this is the version I revised. The book was published before the end of the world, so I crossed out all the plans of going to the cinema to watch a movie together."
"Also, we were going to go somewhere together. I guess these places are no longer in existence, so I changed them to go to the city ruins in this place!"
Xiaohua shook her head with a smug look on her face, with a look that said "praise me, praise me" written all over her face.
Shenyuan looked at the proud Xiaohua, smiled, and immediately pulled her into his arms. Then he praised Lin Ling in her ear, "Well, baby is great."
Lin Ling suddenly felt his ears burning.
"No, you don't need to call me like that." He hurriedly reached out to cover Shenyuan's mouth, his soft fingers pressed tightly against Shi Changyuan's lips.
He opened his mouth and took Xiaohua's finger in his mouth, biting it gently between his lips and teeth, nibbling it softly, and grinding it slowly.
Lin Ling even felt the tip of a wet tongue sweeping across his body, which made him quickly retract his hand and glare at the other person in anger.
But Shen Yuan didn't feel the slightest bit about these two things, and asked "What's wrong?" with a very righteous and innocent look.
"Lingling don't like it?"
"No, I don't dislike it." Xiaohua couldn't bear to say that she disliked it, so she could only find another reason.
可施長淵根本就不給他這個機會，緊跟着就反問，“沒有不喜歡為什麽不能喊？”
“你是深淵的珍寶。”
是惡龍守護的財富，沒有人可以窺視和觊觎。
施長淵的話讓林泠一下子又說不出話來了。
小花耳根滾燙的熱意，已經灼燒到了眼睛，他眨了眨眼，看向對方，聲音十分小的許可道，“那、那你喊吧……”
雖然很害羞，可、可是他說是深淵的珍寶哎。
施長淵看着如此輕易就妥協的小花，親了親林泠的眼睛，又親了親林泠的嘴角，表揚道，“我的小花好乖。”
被施長淵這樣一打岔，林泠的《情侶必做的一百件事》清單一下子就只能延後到第二天了。
當然，确定關系了之後，小花就理直氣壯地抱着自己枕頭和被子，來到了施長淵的房間裏。
天還沒亮，小花就趴在深淵的耳邊，鬼鬼祟祟的試探。
“你醒了沒有呀？”小花小小聲的地嘀咕道，“如果你醒了的話，我們就去看日出吧？”
“如果你沒醒的話，就當做我沒有問吧。”
施長淵一伸手，就将旁邊搗亂的林泠重新摟回了懷裏。
小花想要掙紮，但又顧慮到可能會吵醒對方，于是老老實實在施長淵懷裏待了幾分鐘之後，猛然察覺出不對勁。
“你是故意的？”小花的語氣有幾分不确定，可他又沒有證據。
小花有些狐疑，然後悄悄湊近了過去，想要感受施長淵的呼吸，甚至還想要過分的扒開對方眼皮看看。
可他剛湊過去，一只大手就從他的身後扣住了他的後腦勺，然後林泠就順着那個力道，一下就親在了對方的喉結上。
“你就是故意的！！！”小花對上深淵滿是笑意的眼睛，一口咬住了對方的喉結，用自己尖尖的小牙叼着。
施長淵猛然就将林泠壓在了身下，眸色幽深，欲色翻湧。
可還沒等他說些什麽，底下的小花就和泥鳅一下滑了出去，語速極快地說道，“既然醒了，就一起去完成第一項清單吧。”
“這個清單可是百分百好評！”
說完，林泠就跑回來二樓之前自己的房間，躲了起來。
“吓死了吓死了。”小花翻出了人類給他的“保命寶典”，十分虔誠地道了個謝。
這本人類給他的書籍裏，還包含了一些基礎的生理內容，剛剛小花被逗弄了，下意識就咬上了喉結，在他下嘴的那一瞬間他就感覺到了不對勁。
但他真的不是故意的——
要是在兩天前，他肯定還傻乎乎地留着原地，到時候肯定要出事情的。
陸佳佳說，該跑的時候、能跑的時候就趕緊跑，千萬不要回頭，至于後面的下場和對方的下場，那暫時也不需要考慮。
陸佳佳還說，無論小花犯了什麽錯都沒有關系，扣1全世界原諒你。
等到施長淵來敲響林泠房門的時候，小花先是打開了一條小縫，探頭探腦地露出半張臉在觀望。
“不是說看日出？”
此時的深淵已經面色如常，絲毫看不出其他的情緒，小花又觀察了片刻，這才放心大膽的徹底将門打開。
他放心得很，畢竟深淵不是人類，也沒有在人類基地中生活過，肯定是什麽都不懂的啦~
這種什麽都不懂的淵子最好欺負了！
小花的眼睛咕嚕嚕地轉，一看就知道心裏在盤算着什麽壞主意。
“好哦，我來啦。”
林泠準備的一百件事原本是打算一個星期才能夠完成的，根據大家說，這一百件事重要的不是結果，而是兩人相處的過程，可施長淵拉着林泠滿世界到處瞬移，一天半就全部打卡成功了。
比如看日出，日落，深淵就帶着他瞬移了幾下到了地球的另半邊，林泠就在剛起床的一個小時內，就将日出日落全都看完了。
“這就都完成了？”
不知道是不是之前憋了火氣，深淵看起來對這個情侶必做的一百件事不是很滿意。
“對的呀。”小花看着自己的清單上打滿了勾，其實玩得還是很開心的。
小花玩得開心了，深淵就更加郁悶了，他幾乎有些咬牙切齒了，“我要去給這個清單差評！”
“為什麽呀？”林泠愣了一下。
“因為這些事情，不是情侶也能一起做。”
施長淵看着面前的林泠，語氣認真，“就算我們不是情侶，我可以陪着泠泠看日出日落，一起去城市廢墟探險，一起周游世界，向碰到的每一個人介紹你是我的小花。”
林泠聽着聽着，發現深淵說得完全有道理哎。
如果是之前的深淵邀請他，那他肯定也是不會拒絕的，哪怕他們當時只是好朋友。
“那、那什麽才是情侶之間能做的，并且只有情侶能做的呢？”
林泠有些暈乎乎的了，居然還試圖從什麽都不懂的深淵哪裏獲得答案。
他突然覺得談戀愛好難哦，好像沒有看人類他們談的那樣簡單。
“目前我知道一項。”
此話一出，林泠立馬就看向了施長淵。
施長淵對上了小花的目光，輕笑了一聲，就附身貼了下去，在唇齒相接的前一秒，回答了他，“當然是……”
“接吻。”
第一次，林泠感受到了深淵學習速度的驚人。
在沒有任何參照物和他人傳授經驗的情況下，之前的親吻還只是單純的淺吻，但不知道之前誰先咬了誰，之後深淵的親吻開始會輕輕啃咬、吮/吸。
直到現在，深淵依然在學習，他的舌尖開始掃過唇瓣，貝齒，試圖往更深的地方探去。
而小花卻始終停留在紙上談兵的階段，被輕輕地吻了一下，就氣喘籲籲節節敗退，讓對方得到更多機會。
于是林泠感覺自己更加暈頭轉向了，予取予求。
“有個人類跟我說，她給了泠泠書，要我一起看，但我不知道這回事。”施長淵看着自己懷中徹底沒了力氣的小花，渾身粉紅，雙眼泛着霧氣，卻突然開始提起了其他事情。
林泠混沌的大腦突然清醒了一瞬，接着便聽見了深淵肯定地說道，“小花偷偷藏書了。”
“嗚……”
林泠想要說話，但他氣都還沒有勻稱，就又聽見對方開了口。
“寶寶偷看了？”
這句雖然是疑問句，但其中的語氣卻完全不像，但林泠已經分辨不出來了。
他什麽都說不出來，花言巧語說不出來，實話也說不出來，他總覺得自己被伺機報複了，只能嗚嗚地讨着饒，“對、對不……”
林泠想要道歉，剛一開口，就再次被施長淵吻住了，唇齒呢喃間，他聽見了對方說道，“沒關系。”
“你是我的小花。”
“你做什麽都可以。”
親吻到最後，林泠都已經放棄了掙紮，只覺得施長淵上一輩子肯定不是深淵，一定是親親狂魔轉世的，他感覺自己的嘴唇火辣辣的疼。
施長淵看着小花明明已經完全沒有力氣了，但還要用最後的力氣狠狠地瞪自己一眼，就覺得很可愛。
不僅可愛，還很漂亮。
是朵漂亮的紅色小花，唇瓣殷紅，眼尾也泛着紅暈，大喘氣時一閃而過的舌尖也是紅色的。
“小花偷看了書，知道除了親吻，還有什麽是可以做的嗎？”施長淵等林泠稍微緩了緩，像是突然想起了一樣，猛然提問，吓得小花差點滑到地上。
“我、我不知道……”
小花感受到抵住自己的東西，也不敢問也不敢說。
“好吧。”
小花聽見深淵的語氣中還帶着遺憾，瞬間感覺欲哭無淚。
他丫的，人類害我QAQ
林泠才緩過來神來一半左右，就已經在着手思考要謀劃一個報仇計劃了，今天晚上先暗鯊深淵，明天早上再去暗鯊陸佳佳——
“小花在想什麽？”
施長淵的聲音一下子就将小花拉回了現實，此時他還被困在深淵的懷裏，動彈不得。
“還想要親親小花。”
林泠恢複了一些，當機立斷就捂住了自己的嘴巴，悶悶的聲音從手掌後傳來，“不要！我的嘴巴好疼。”
“我不親這裏。”施長淵耐心地哄道。
他先是吻了吻林泠的額頭，接着是眼睛，然後是鼻子……
這種溫存式的吻法一下子就又讓小花喪失了警惕心，慢吞吞地将自己的手心挪開了。
“你、你說話算話哦？”
“嗯。”
深淵确實說話算話，他繞開了小花的紅腫的唇瓣，然後低頭吻了吻他的耳垂。
林泠沒忍住瑟縮了一下，一邊伸手試圖将深淵推遠點，一邊笑着說道，“有點癢。”
“癢？”
深淵似乎不明白這種感覺，還輕輕咬了咬。
“別、別……”小花的腰身幾乎是立馬就彈了起來，緊接着便是被深淵一把按住，就像是獵食者一把按住了獵物的弱點。
“嗯？”
深淵的語氣理直氣壯，“沒有親嘴巴。”
這下林泠是真的要哭了，他感受着自己耳邊的濕漉，喊叫不出，掙脫不掉，只能蜷縮着，一陣陣發顫。
“難受？”
深淵很快就發現了小花試圖掩蓋的跡象。
"What to do next?"
"Xiaohua, teach me."
Lin Ling couldn't hold it in any longer.
…
That night, Xiaohua failed to successfully follow his plan to enter the Dark Shark Abyss. He didn't even know when he fell asleep in a daze.
So he couldn't get up the next day.
