Chapter 42: That's not good
The sunlight outside the tent squeezed in through the open black umbrella, illuminating Lu Qingmian's black eyes.
Jiang Jinyue asked the question, but didn't dare to look back, so he didn't see how Lu Qingmian was looking at him.
Those black eyes that were always cold and indifferent were filled with deep affection, and the gentle love almost overflowed from them.
No one spoke in the small tent for a while, but the atmosphere became more and more ambiguous.
Under Cen Yingjie's call, the outside of the tent became increasingly lively. Chen Keai saw Jiang Jinyue holding up a large black umbrella outside the tent door and called out loudly:
"Yueyue! Come out——"
Jiang Jinyue couldn't wait for Lu Qingmian's answer, her eyelashes slowly drooped, and a hint of loss flashed in her red eyes.
He was about to leave the tent holding a black umbrella when he was suddenly hooked back by a strong arm around his waist. He staggered and sat back on the sleeping bag.
The black umbrella in his hand fell to the ground, blocking the half-open tent door.
Jiang Jinyue leaned his back into Lu Qingmian's arms. Lu Qingmian lowered his head, his thin lips right next to Jiang Jinyue's ear. His voice was very low, and his breath gently blew across the tip of Jiang Jinyue's ear.
"Who do you think I like?"
"I..." Jiang Jinyue wanted to look up at Lu Qingmian, but just as his eyes caught Lu Qingmian's chin, he hurriedly looked away. The last word "I" was trembling, and it took a long while before he continued, "I don't know."
Just these four simple words, but his ears were already red, and his cheeks were even more rosy. From Lu Qingmian's perspective, he could see Jiang Jinyue's red ears and profile.
He moved closer, and his thin lips brushed the tip of Jiang Jinyue's ear as he spoke.
"Really?"
Jiang Jinyue bit his lip, his hands helplessly placed on Lu Qingmian's arms around his waist, without saying a word.
The hot lips and teeth suddenly bit his earlobe, and Lu Qingmian's voice became unclear:
"How about you take a guess?"
Jiang Jinyue leaned forward, subconsciously trying to avoid such an overly intimate gesture.
Lu Qingmian opened his lips and let go of the soft earlobe between his lips and teeth, but he did not loosen his arms around Jiang Jinyue's waist, allowing Jiang Jinyue to move a little further away.
"Who do you think is the one around me that I would like?"
Lu Qingmian asked questions one after another, leaving Jiang Jinyue at a loss as to how to answer.
The word "I" was rolling on his lips, but he was too embarrassed to say it out loud. He was afraid that he was being too self-righteous, and he was also afraid that he would spoil Lu Qingmian's fun by being too hesitant.
Just as Jiang Jinyue was about to say the word "I", Lu Qingmian suddenly leaned forward, touched the tip of his nose on the back of Jiang Jinyue's neck, and interrupted his answer.
"Have you showered yet?"
The answer that was almost out of his mouth was interrupted. Jiang Jinyue's heart beat so fast that it was out of control. There was a brief blank in his brain. His thin white neck drooped helplessly. The courage he had mustered up suddenly dissipated, and the word "I" was never uttered in the end.
"Well... I've already washed it."
Lu Qingmian buried his face in Jiang Jinyue's neck, his movements more unscrupulous than before, as if he had already confirmed that Jiang Jinyue was his property.
He sniffed Jiang Jinyue's neck deeply, "You smell like me."
Jiang Jinyue's snow-white eyelashes trembled, and she nodded her small chin. She said softly, "Well... we use the same set of toiletries."
In order to reduce their luggage when they went camping this time, they only brought the toiletries that Lu Qingmian usually used. Naturally, Jiang Jinyue used that set to take a shower in the morning.
Lu Qingmian also said "hmm", which seemed to be a meaningless response. He held Jiang Jinyue's arms tighter, almost embedding Jiang Jinyue in his arms.
He hugged her for a long time, but Jiang Jinyue was a little distracted, regretting that he had not answered her in time.
After hearing Chen Keai's urging voice several times outside, Lu Qingmian let go of Jiang Jinyue, picked up his toiletries bag and went to the washing area to take a shower.
After Lu Qingmian left, Jiang Jinyue sat alone in the tent for a few minutes before going out.
When Chen Keai saw Jiang Jinyue coming out with a large black umbrella, she immediately came over and quietly asked, "I haven't had a chance to ask you before. Is that USB drive any good? You seem so lively lately, maybe you've had some food?"
Jiang Jinyue didn't expect Chen Keai to ask so directly, and her cheeks, which had finally returned to normal, turned slightly red again.
Chen Keai stared at Jiang Jinyue's pale face. Her fingers felt a little itchy and she couldn't help but want to pinch Jiang Jinyue's face.
He looked towards the wash area like a thief, and when he was sure that Lu Qingmian had not come out yet, he immediately reached out and pinched it. It was soft and smooth to the touch, and felt incredibly good.
Chen Keai was almost jealous of Lu Qingmian.
Jiang Jinyue carefully chose his words and told him that the USB flash drive was not used and was confiscated by Lu Qingmian.
Chen Keai's eyes widened in surprise. "It didn't work? That Lu Qingmian guy looked at the contents and didn't react?"
Jiang Jinyue shook her head slightly, her eyelashes drooping, feeling embarrassed to discuss this issue with Chen Keai.
Chen Keai asked again: "Then how did you eat? You guys haven't already..."
"No!" Jiang Jinyue immediately interrupted Chen Keai's question and replied vaguely: "He was... in the bathroom, I was outside the door..."
Chen Keai was incredulous: "Just by smell?"
This sounded awkward, but Jiang Jinyue really ate like this. He could only nod. The blush on his face had spread to his neck, and even the bit of his collarbone exposed by the collar was an eye-catching red.
Chen Keai was amazed, then thought of something. She leaned close to Jiang Jinyue's ear, covered her mouth with her hand, and whispered, "Lu Qingmian didn't react to that... Is he not good at that? Do you observe him after every meal? Does he look very tired?"
That aspect...isn't working?
Jiang Jinyue recalled the few times he saw Lu Qingmian after feeding him. He looked lazy and seemed really tired.
So Lu Qingmian is not good in that area?
Chen Keai nodded seriously: "How many times do you eat a day? I think you should buy some nourishment for Lu Qingmian. He looks so weak, don't let him get sick!"
Jiang Jinyue didn't say that he only ate once a day, but Lu Qingmian was already so tired after just one meal. What if Lu Qingmian really got sick from being exhausted from feeding him?
Seeing Jiang Jinyue's panicked look, Chen Keai thought to herself that Lu Qingmian looked tall and capable, but she didn't expect him to be so weak?
His voice became even lower. "All the boyfriends I've dated are pretty good. I haven't tried any that weren't, so I can't give you any advice. Why don't you look it up online and find out how to improve this aspect?"
Jiang Jinyue nodded in a daze, with a hint of guilt on his face.
When Lu Qingmian came out of the shower, Jiang Jinyue was already sitting under the big tent with the others. A simple breakfast was placed on the table. Jiang Jinyue was nibbling on a slice of bread with jam. When Lu Qingmian came out, he immediately looked over.
The facilities in the washing area are very complete, including a shower room, toilet, and drying area, but Lu Qingmian was obviously too lazy to blow-dry his hair. He had a towel hanging around his neck, and his hair was wet and dripping with water.
As soon as Jiang Jinyue saw Lu Qingmian, he thought of Chen Keai’s bad remarks. He immediately put down the bread, opened the big black umbrella, and ran towards Lu Qingmian.
Lu Qingmian paused, and when Jiang Jinyue came over, he asked quietly, "Are you hungry?"
Jiang Jinyue was indeed a little hungry, but he felt embarrassed to ask Lu Qingmian to feed him. He had only eaten once a day during this period, and one meal made Lu Qingmian very weak. He thought he should bear it if he could so that Lu Qingmian would not be so tired.
Jiang Jinyue shook her head, raised her umbrella to block Lu Qingmian from coming in, and asked, "Why don't you blow-dry your hair?"
The temperature in H City is relatively low in autumn, and it is easy to catch a cold with wet hair. Lu Qingmian has been feeding him non-stop recently, so his health must have deteriorated a lot and he is more prone to getting sick.
Lu Qingmian shook his hair and said indifferently, "I'm too lazy to blow it."
Jiang Jinyue disagreed: "You'll get sick. Can I help you blow it?"
Lu Qingmian always felt that Jiang Jinyue's gaze on him was strange, but he didn't think too much about it. Seeing that Jiang Jinyue insisted on helping him blow his hair, he nodded and walked towards the washing area with Jiang Jinyue.
There were not many people in the wash area at the moment. Lu Qingmian took the big black umbrella, and Jiang Jinyue picked up the hair dryer, thought about it, and put it down again.
He hooked his finger at Lu Qingmian, and Lu Qingmian lowered the umbrella to block the two of them.
Jiang Jinyue whispered, "Actually, I didn't use a hair dryer to blow dry my hair this morning."
Lu Qingmian raised his eyebrows. He remembered that when he woke up, Jiang Jinyue's hair was dry.
Jiang Jinyue raised the corners of his mouth and smiled a little playfully. He opened his palm, and a small flame ignited in the palm of his hand. The flame was different from the color of ordinary flames. It was the same color as those thorny roses, like a living rose blooming in the palm of Jiang Jinyue.
"I discovered this this morning." Jiang Jinyue held up the flame, like a child showing off his favorite toy.
Lu Qingmian stretched out his fingertips to touch the flame, but Jiang Jinyue immediately moved his hand away, "No, you'll get burned!"
He grasped with his fingertips, and the flames rose and spread out like a living thing, enveloping the ends of Lu Qingmian's hair and instantly drying out the moisture from her hair.
Jiang Jinyue was a little proud, "Don't worry, this is how I dried myself this morning. I'm very skilled!"
Lu Qingmian was not afraid. He allowed Jiang Jinyue to use his hair for experiments and was not afraid at all.
Jiang Jinyue was a little too proud of himself, and the flame growing in his palm trembled. He couldn't control the temperature well and it rose a few degrees. A burning smell came. Although Jiang Jinyue reacted quickly and retracted the flame, Lu Qingmian's hair was still over-permed. The ends of her hair curled up, and her straight black hair turned into slightly curly curls, a bit like natural curls.
Lu Qingmian raised his hand and tugged at the end of his hair, then turned to look at the mirror beside him.
Jiang Jinyue extinguished the flame in his palm and looked at Lu Qingmian anxiously and worriedly, "Lu Qingmian! Are you burned? Are you okay? I didn't control myself well, I..."
"It's pretty good," Lu Qingmian casually smoothed his hair, "It's not bad to change the hairstyle. The perm technique is pretty good."
Jiang Jinyue thought Lu Qingmian would be angry. Anyone whose hair was suddenly curled by flames, or even smelled burnt, would probably be angry. However, she didn't expect Lu Qingmian to casually brush the matter off.
"Let's go back."
Lu Qingmian held up a large black umbrella and carefully protected Jiang Jinyue under it, and the two returned to the big tent.
The big tent has a good sunshade effect, so there is no need to hold an umbrella in the big tent. Lu Qingmian folded up the black umbrella and put it aside, then sat at the table with Jiang Jinyue.
The piece of bread that Jiang Jinyue had taken two bites of was still there. He picked up the bread and continued to eat it with a tasteless taste. His brows were slightly furrowed. Although he tried his best to restrain himself, he still showed a bit of reluctance.
He is a vampire now, and eating this piece of bread is no different from chewing paper. It is not only unpalatable but also cannot fill his stomach at all. It is pure torture.
Lu Qingmian knew Jiang Jinyue's condition very well. He naturally took the messy piece of bread from Jiang Jinyue's hand and even made an excuse for Jiang Jinyue, "Don't force yourself to eat if your stomach is upset."
Jiang Jinyue's eyes unconsciously followed Lu Qingmian's hand, watching him open his mouth and take a bite of the bread he had bitten. The red strawberry jam stained the corner of Lu Qingmian's lips, leaving a little red.
Noticing Jiang Jinyue's gaze, Lu Qingmian took out a tissue and wiped the corner of his mouth. Then he suddenly pinched Jiang Jinyue's chin and turned to the side, "Why are you staring at me?"
Jiang Jinyue's heartbeat got a little rough, and she quickly turned her head away from Lu Qingmian's hand, "Nothing."
At this moment, Zhen Lingwei suddenly asked, "Jiang Jinyue, are your eyelashes dyed white? Where did you dye them? They look so natural."
Chen Keai had already warned the camping club members that Jiang Jinyue was allergic to ultraviolet rays, so she always held an umbrella. As for the white hair and red eyes, it was easier to conceal. She could just say it was dyed hair and colored contact lenses. There was no need to mention it specifically. Zhen Lingwei had no ill intentions in asking about it now. She simply thought Jiang Jinyue's eyelashes were particularly evenly white and beautiful, and she couldn't help but be curious.
Jiang Jinyue was about to speak when Chen Keai answered for him:
"Yes, he dyed it. I went with him. I originally wanted to dye my eyelashes pink, but then something delayed me, so I never went again. If you want to dye yours too, I can recommend that shop to you later."
Zhen Lingwei nodded, "Okay."
Jiang Jinyue blinked and looked at Chen Keai. He saw Chen Keai secretly winked at him and made an OK gesture, telling him not to worry.
Jiang Jinyue felt warm in his heart when he saw this. He knew that Chen Keai was covering for him and that Chen Keai really treated him as a friend.
On the other side, Lu Qingmian had already finished the bread slice that Jiang Jinyue had gnawed into a mess. He was about to reach for another slice when Jiang Jinyue noticed him. Chen Keai's remarks about Lu Qingmian being incompetent and weak flashed through his mind. He immediately stood up and took the bread slice first. Then he opened the peanut butter container, spread a thick layer of peanut butter on the bread slice, and handed it to Lu Qingmian, "Eat more."
Lu Qingmian took the bread slice with a suspicious look on his face. He always felt that Jiang Jinyue was particularly attentive this morning.
Jiang Jinyue saw Lu Qingmian start eating, glanced at the several kinds of jam on the table, took out his phone, turned slightly to the side, and after making sure Lu Qingmian couldn't see his phone screen, opened the webpage to search:
What fruits can supplement that aspect?
Because his search was too vague, the results he got were messy and not what he wanted.
Jiang Jinyue's fingertips paused, and he glanced at the half-eaten slice of bread left by Lu Qingmian, and searched again anxiously:
What fruits can nourish the kidneys and strengthen yang?
This time the search results were very specific. He put away his phone with satisfaction, picked out the kiwi jam that was in the search answer from the existing jams on the table, picked up a piece of bread, spread half a bottle of kiwi jam directly on it, and then looked at Lu Qingmian expectantly. After Lu Qingmian finished eating the bread in his hand, he immediately handed over the green bread in his hand.
Lu Qingmian lowered his eyes and looked at the kiwi jam on the bread slice, which was almost thicker than the bread itself. His Adam's apple moved and he said, "Are you trying to make me die of sweetness?"
Jiang Jinyue blinked innocently, "It's not very sweet, try it."
Lu Qingmian took it hesitantly, took a bite, and frowned fiercely, "So sweet."
Jiang Jinyue supported Lu Qingmian's hand and urged, "Try it again. It won't be sweet after a while. This is good for you."
"Be good to me?" Lu Qingmian raised his eyebrows and looked Jiang Jinyue up and down.
Jiang Jinyue realized that he had said something wrong and quickly shut up. He just held Lu Qingmian's hand and urged him to eat with his eyes.
Fortunately, Lu Qingmian didn't ask any more questions and ate the sweet slices of bread in just a few bites. When Jiang Jinyue was about to spread the bread on the fourth slice, he stopped him. Jiang Jinyue had to give up regretfully.
Cen Yingjie began reading out the agenda for today's activities: "We're going to go hiking first. There's a picking garden on the mountain. After we get up there, we'll go pick some vegetables. Lunch will be made right there with the vegetables we picked. They raise chickens and ducks there, so if you want to eat them, you can ask the owner to kill them right away. I brought a camera, so we can take lots of photos along the way."
Cen Yingjie raised his camera and shook it, then continued, "Let's come back here tonight and have some fun together. That's about it for today, is that all right?"
This schedule was not too tight, and everyone had no objection. They all returned to their small tents to pack up and prepare for the subsequent mountain climbing and other itineraries.
Jiang Jinyue and Lu Qingmian returned to the small tent together. He put the water bottle into his backpack, while Lu Qingmian put a lot of tissues and wet wipes into his backpack. As he was doing so, he asked Jiang Jinyue:
"Are you hungry? When are you going to eat today?"
Jiang Jinyue blushed instantly, but refused, "I, I'm not hungry today. Let's talk about eating later..."
Lu Qingmian narrowed his dark eyes slightly and looked at Jiang Jinyue, "Are you hiding something from me today?"
"No!" Jiang Jinyue answered quickly, which seemed suspicious.
He avoided Lu Qingmian's sight, picked up his backpack and left the small tent first.
Lu Qingmian looked at Jiang Jinyue's back, slowly packed his backpack, and followed Jiang Jinyue out.
After getting ready, the group left the camping area and started climbing the mountain along a small path on the side.
When climbing the mountain, Jiang Jinyue kept holding an umbrella, and Lu Qingmian always protected Jiang Jinyue. Zheng Yue seemed to want to say something to Jiang Jinyue, and walked to Jiang Jinyue's side several times, but because of Lu Qingmian's presence, she didn't say anything every time.
Her behavior was too obvious, and Lu Qingmian had noticed it a long time ago. He looked at Zheng Yue with a questioning look. Because Lu Qingmian's eyes were too oppressive, Zheng Yue didn't dare to walk to Jiang Jinyue so obviously again. Until the group climbed to the top of the mountain, she didn't find a chance to talk to Jiang Jinyue alone.
The view from the top of the mountain is wide. Everywhere you look are greenhouses full of vegetables and fruits. Not far away there are pens with chickens and ducks. In the innermost part is a small courtyard full of life. That is where they have lunch, and the owner of the camping area lives there.
There were quite a few people in the picking garden. After paying, they carried their small baskets and went into several surrounding picking gardens.
Jiang Jinyue and Lu Qingmian went to the strawberry picking garden. Besides them, there were some other people camping there.
As soon as he entered the picking garden, Jiang Jinyue smelled a strong aroma of strawberries. The strawberry garden was kept particularly clean and tidy. One could tell at a glance that the owner was very attentive. Red strawberries were hanging on the plants, waiting to be picked.
Jiang Jinyue couldn't help feeling regretful. He was a vampire now. No matter how sweet these strawberries smelled, they had no taste in his mouth.
Lu Qingmian saw Jiang Jinyue's regret and said, "You can come anytime you want in the future. I'll accompany you."
Jiang Jinyue was stunned for a moment and looked at Lu Qingmian beside him. The scene in the tent in the morning suddenly emerged in his mind. Jiang Jinyue's heart was beating a little irregularly, and he rushed into the field with a small basket in his hand.
Lu Qingmian followed him leisurely. The two of them carefully selected the most ripe strawberries and picked them. They were very careful not to damage other plants.
However, Jiang Jinyue didn't expect that he was so tired after picking only half a basket of strawberries. His stomach was rumbling with hunger, and the feeling of hunger had turned from being bearable in the morning to being so weak now. His legs were trembling and he could hardly walk.
Lu Qingmian didn't seem to notice Jiang Jinyue's abnormality and was squatting beside her picking strawberries.
Jiang Jinyue pursed her lips, thinking of Lu Qingmian's weak body and limited ability, she gritted her teeth and decided to endure it a little longer, and then picked up the small basket to continue picking strawberries. However, she had just taken two steps when her arm went weak and the basket in her hand fell to the ground, and the strawberries inside rolled all over the floor.
Lu Qingmian immediately came forward, supported Jiang Jinyue, and asked in a low voice: "Jiang Jinyue, what's wrong with you? Are you hungry?"
Jiang Jinyue gritted his teeth and shook his head, saying stubbornly, "No, I'm not hungry, my hands are just numb..."
Lu Qingmian frowned fiercely, "Jiang Jinyue, you are lying. What's wrong with you today? It seems like you have been hiding something from me."
Jiang Jinyue's eyes were vague, and he couldn't bring himself to say that he had discovered that Lu Qingmian was not good in that aspect, and was afraid that if they ate a few more times, Lu Qingmian would get hurt. His red lips were slightly open, and he was shaking with hunger. The little fangs that were faintly visible between his lips looked a little pitiful.
Lu Qingmian simply stopped asking and forcefully pulled Jiang Jinyue's arm over, leading him out. "Let's go find a place to eat."
Jiang Jinyue wanted to refuse, but he was too weak. When Lu Qingmian pulled him, his body tilted and he fell down limply.
Lu Qingmian was startled and caught Jiang Jinyue. He immediately heard a loud bowel sound in his ears.
"You're so hungry, and you still say you're not hungry?" Lu Qingmian was a little angry.
The hunger grew stronger and stronger, and Jiang Jinyue's eyes began to blur. He tried to stare at Lu Qingmian with his eyes wide open, but he still said stubbornly: "I can still endure it for a while..."
Lu Qingmian simply picked up Jiang Jinyue and let Jiang Jinyue sit in his arms like a child. The black umbrella was placed on Jiang Jinyue's shoulders. Two baskets of strawberries were thrown on the ground mercilessly. He walked straight out with Jiang Jinyue in his arms, no longer intending to listen to Jiang Jinyue's explanation.
Jiang Jinyue was so hungry that he felt dizzy and had no strength to say anything. He leaned on Lu Qingmian's shoulder and could hardly hold on to the umbrella on his shoulder.
Lu Qingmian carried Jiang Jinyue out of the picking garden and walked all the way into the depths of the woods in the mountains. He didn't put Jiang Jinyue down until he could no longer hear the voices of people from the picking garden and the sunlight above was blocked by the tall trees.
Jiang Jinyue was so hungry that his legs were weak. He sat on the ground leaning against a tree trunk, and the umbrella on his shoulder fell to the side.
He looked at Lu Qingmian aggrievedly, opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Lu Qingmian put down his backpack, took out the earphones from it, plugged them into his phone, deliberately picked a noisier music to play, and then put both earphones on Jiang Jinyue's ears.
"Close your eyes and listen to the song."
Jiang Jinyue listened to the music in the headphones and slowly closed her eyes at Lu Qingmian's signal.
He thought that after this meal, he must buy a lot of supplements to nourish Lu Qingmian's body.
Seeing Jiang Jinyue close his eyes, Lu Qingmian walked to the other side of the tree, leaned his back against the trunk, frowned slightly, and slowly stretched out his hand.
Obviously, this kind of thing has happened several times, and Jiang Jinyue can't see or hear him now, but Lu Qingmian still can't stay calm.
He lowered his head, with the slightly curled hair at the ends falling down, blocking his eyebrows. His pair of black eyes, which were always deep and calm, were shimmering with watery light, and the tips of his ears, hidden by his black hair, were slightly red.
Suppressed gasps sounded in the silent forest. Lu Qingmian raised his head, and the dense leaves above his head came into view, leaving mottled traces of light in his eyes.
It all seemed so absurd that he was feeding a vampire in this way.
Every day since he met Jiang Jinyue in H City was absurd, but not boring. Even before he realized it, Jiang Jinyue had already begun to fill his empty heart.
Jiang Jinyue closed his eyes. He could not see Lu Qingmian, nor could he hear Lu Qingmian's voice. Apart from the cool feeling of the breeze brushing against his skin, he felt as if he was isolated in a small world.
But his heart could not calm down. He knew what Lu Qingmian was doing across the tree. He also knew that he was about to eat delicious qi. He also knew what that qi was. The more he understood, the more Jiang Jinyue's heart could not calm down.
The quiet trees began to stir, and the amplitude of the swaying of the branches gradually increased, as if responding to Jiang Jinyue's restless heart.
After a while, Jiang Jinyue smelled a familiar sweet scent.
He couldn't help but open his lips slightly, and the air flowed through his mouth and nose and madly poured into his hungry stomach, filling his belly.
After the feeling of hunger subsided, Jiang Jinyue suddenly felt a strong desire in his heart.
He didn't want to be unable to see or hear anything anymore, at least... at least let him hear Lu Qingmian's voice.
Jiang Jinyue moved the fingertips hanging by his side and quietly took off one of the headphones.
The breeze brushed past my ears, lifting the fine snow-white hair. In contrast to the intense music in the other ear, the sound in this ear seemed particularly quiet and secretive.
Amid the rustling of leaves, a low and hoarse gasp was heard. The sound was particularly suppressed, as if the owner of the sound was forcibly restraining it.
Amidst the panting, Jiang Jinyue's body trembled unconsciously. A strange itchy and tingling sensation followed the panting sound and penetrated deep into his ears, gradually spreading to his limbs and bones.
Jiang Jinyue curled up her legs, as if bewitched, quietly raised her hand and took off the other earphone.
The two earphones fell into the grass, and the dynamic music completely disappeared from his ears. Jiang Jinyue tilted his head slightly and heard clearer breathing, which belonged to Lu Qingmian's breathing, on the other side of the tree.
The smell of food that could fill the stomach in the air was getting stronger and stronger. Jiang Jinyue was already full and no longer felt hungry, but his body was getting weaker and weaker. His fingertips helplessly entangled with the green grass leaves at his hand, giving the grass leaves a warmth that did not belong to them.
Time became extremely slow at this moment and passed as if in the blink of an eye. The panting behind the big tree suddenly stopped, and the sweet scent in the air reached its peak at this moment. Jiang Jinyue heard Lu Qingmian sigh softly, and then began to slowly adjust his breathing frequency.
After a while, the sound of a backpack being opened was heard, and Jiang Jinyue guessed Lu Qingmian's actions based on the sound.
Lu Qingmian took out the wet wipes and opened the lid... Lu Qingmian took out another tissue...
Jiang Jinyue lowered his eyes and had another full meal.
He couldn't help but keep thinking about everything that happened in the small tent that morning. If... if he had just said "I" at that time, how would Lu Qingmian react?
Is he the one Lu Qingmian likes?
What if he was overthinking it? What if it wasn't him...
If it’s not him, who does Lu Qingmian like?
When Jiang Jinyue thought of this, he felt a tightness in his chest and his breathing became difficult.
He couldn't bear it any longer and turned around suddenly. Because his legs had not yet recovered from their weakness, he accidentally knelt on the ground. He didn't even bother to stand up. He just crawled forward a few times, climbed to the back of the tree, and pounced on Lu Qingmian.
"Lu Qingmian, who do you..." like?
Lu Qingmian didn't expect Jiang Jinyue to suddenly rush over. His dark eyes showed a rare panic. He immediately reached out to cover Jiang Jinyue's eyes, but then he remembered that there was something on his hands, so he changed direction, pulled Jiang Jinyue over with force, and pressed Jiang Jinyue's head into his arms.
Jiang Jinyue only felt that Lu Qingmian's fingertips seemed to accidentally brush across his cheek, and something wet was stained on his cheek. The next moment, his eyes went black, and he was pressed into Lu Qingmian's chest. Naturally, he didn't say the rest of the words.
"Jiang Jinyue!" Lu Qingmian's voice was a little anxious. "Who asked you to come here? Close your eyes! Don't look!"
The sound of a zipper being zipped up was heard. After Lu Qingmian had tidied his clothes, he released the hand that was pressing on Jiang Jinyue's head.
Jiang Jinyue looked up blankly and met Lu Qingmian's dark eyes.
Lu Qingmian lowered his eyes, and when he saw a wet mark on Jiang Jinyue's cheek, his pupils suddenly shrank.
That one got on Jiang Jinyue's cheek.
Jiang Jinyue subconsciously raised her hand to wipe the moisture off her face, but Lu Qingmian grabbed her wrist.
"Don't move!"
Lu Qingmian took out a tissue and gently and carefully wiped Jiang Jinyue's cheek. His pretty eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and the fingers holding the tissue even trembled a little.
It was the first time that Jiang Jinyue saw Lu Qingmian so nervous. He couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth and smiled.
Lu Qingmian wiped with a heavier hand, and lowered his voice, seeming a little angry. "Are you still laughing? Do you know what's on your face? It's so dirty!"
Jiang Jinyue's smile grew wider, his red eyes gleaming with light, his snow-white eyelashes half-hiding the intricate and gorgeous patterns in his eyes. His gaze fell directly on Lu Qingmian, and he said innocently and bluntly:
"I know what it is."
Lu Qingmian's fingertips trembled.
Jiang Jinyue raised his head and moved closer to Lu Qingmian. After eating, he looked full and satisfied, and the natural charm of a vampire finally emerged.
He tilted his head slightly and said with a smile, "Lu Qingmian, why do you dislike your things being dirty?"
Lu Qingmian's heart trembled violently, and then began to beat violently. He looked at Jiang Jinyue, and slowly lowered his head as if bewitched. His slightly open thin lips gradually moved closer, and one hand reached out to hold Jiang Jinyue's neck.
Jiang Jinyue didn't notice Lu Qingmian's obsession. He said seriously:
"Lu Qingmian, thank you, and... you've worked so hard. When we get back from camping, I'll buy you some deer penis wine. I've looked it up... this stuff will be very helpful to you!"
Jiang Jinyue took out his phone as he spoke and showed Lu Qingmian the results of his search:
Deer penis wine nourishes the kidneys and strengthens yang, and is very effective for male premature ejaculation and impotence!
Lu Qingmian's hand, which was about to touch the back of Jiang Jinyue's neck, suddenly clenched into a fist and smashed it hard against the tree trunk beside him. The force was so great that the tree shook a few times.
He stared at Jiang Jinyue, his black eyes filled with frost, and his voice became several degrees colder. "Jiang Jinyue, what do you mean? Do you think I'm not capable?"
Jiang Jinyue blinked and said innocently, "I... I'm just afraid that my body won't be able to handle you feeding me like this..."
Lu Qingmian sneered.
He suddenly pressed Jiang Jinyue's shoulders, trapping her between him and the tree trunk. His other hand touched Jiang Jinyue's round belly and pressed it. Then he grabbed Jiang Jinyue's hand, slowly pulled it towards him, and said coldly and slowly:
"Don't worry, even if I feed you ten times a day, I won't feel weak!"
"I'm going to starve you to death today."
