Chapter 248: Don't Covet the Dragon's Daughter 16

Les was a little annoyed and dived into the water again.

The tail swung in the water, leaving behind a trail of bubbles and ripples.

Mingnan didn't know what he was struggling with.

After Les left, the scent dissipated and her mind became much clearer.

Looking at the pile of things on the ground, she rolled up her sleeves and resigned herself to collecting them.

After cleaning up, she was indeed a little sleepy, so she changed into her newly bought long-sleeved and long-pants pajamas and lay down on the bed.

The light in the cave was always dim, and the passage of time was not obvious.

Perfect for a carefree sleep.

Mingnan closed his eyes and soon sank into a bizarre dream.

…

The dream was dark and she couldn't see anything clearly. She didn't know where she was or what would happen next. She just waited anxiously.

As she waited, something slowly moved up from her ankles in the darkness.

It was cool and smooth, moving all the way up her calves and wrapping around her tightly.

She couldn't move her limbs and breathing became difficult.

It is obviously painful, but this pain also brings with it a kind of inexplicable warmth.

It was as if someone had set a fire in her heart, which flowed through her boiling blood to her limbs and bones, burning her so much that she could not help but tremble.

She opened her eyes wide, trying hard to see what was happening, but everything was dark in front of her and she could not see anything.

Her consciousness gradually faded, and at a certain moment, she suddenly woke up and saw a pair of golden pupils suddenly appear in her sight.

"Lace?!"

Mingnan cried out in surprise and suddenly sat up from the bed.

Only then did she come to her senses.

She stared at the end of the bed for a long time, then patted her face and found that it was really badly burned.

Was that the kind of dream she just had?

I also dreamed of Les...

Mingnan closed his eyes, and the pair of golden eyes in his dream flashed through his mind again.

She shuddered and quickly opened her eyes.

205: [Host, hehe~]

[Shut up.] Mingnan looked back guiltily. It was very quiet behind the stone wall. Les should still be resting.

She breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly got out of bed to change her clothes.

No, she couldn't stay in the cave for the time being, she had to go out and calm down.

It was dinner time, so I went for a walk in the forest to see if there was anything delicious.

…

Mingnan carried her small basket and went to the mushroom field where the fox had taken her before.

At this time, only a ray of afterglow of the setting sun remained, painting the sky a hue of light purple and deep pink.

A cool breeze blew, and the leaves rustled and danced.

A strand of hair was blown off, Mingnan casually raised his hand to tuck it behind his ear, and suddenly a flash of white appeared in the remaining light.

She paused in her mushroom-digging action, turned her head, and saw that the half-human-high bushes opposite her moved.

It's like there's something lurking behind, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Mingnan narrowed his eyes, became more alert, and held the newly bought shovel tightly in his hand.

After waiting for two minutes, the bushes moved even more violently.

Just when Mingnan was about to strike first, a white ball suddenly emerged from inside.

She looked closely and saw that it was a little fox.

“It’s you.”

She put down the shovel, squatted back, and continued to dig the mushrooms she had just seen.

The little fox was not shy at all. He ran up to her, barked twice, and then rubbed her pants affectionately.

Looking at its fluffy white fur, Mingnan couldn't help but feel itchy and wanted to touch it.

But as soon as she stretched out her hand, she remembered the disgusted expression on Les's face when he grabbed her wrist and said it smelled like a "fox."

Les didn't seem to like her getting too close to other animals.

Perhaps this is the dragon's sense of territory.

Mingnan thought about it, withdrew his hand, did not touch it, and asked softly: "Why are you here again?"

The fox squeaked twice, sat down and tilted its head to look at her. When it saw that she didn't touch it, an imperceptible disappointment flashed in its eyes.

But soon it perked up again, biting her leg and moving hard in the other direction.

"Where are you taking me?"

She thought the fox had found some mushrooms again, so without thinking much, she put down the mushrooms and shovel and followed it.

When the fox saw her catching up, he wagged his tail happily and ran happily to the front to lead the way.

Run two steps and then turn around to wait for her.

Mingnan followed behind slowly, through the bushes and down a slope. As soon as he turned the corner, the view in front of him suddenly opened up.

Large patches of red flowers swayed in the wind, like a layer of gorgeous gauze spread on the ground.

The fox leaped into the flowers, its tail sticking out and wagging. The next moment, it popped its head out again, running towards us with a blooming flower in its mouth.

Mingnan was surprised to see it running to her, circling her twice, grabbing her pants with its paws, standing up and raising its head to hand the flowers to her.

"For me?"

She looked at the little fox with surprise.

The little fox said nothing and pushed the flower forward again.

Mingnan took it and nodded its head with the flower. "Thank you. I like it very much."

The fox immediately grinned and sat on the ground, looking at her obediently.

Mingnan pinched the dark green branch and turned it around, examining the petals carefully.

This flower looks a bit like a rose and also a bit like a rose, but it has no thorns and no fragrance.

Nice, but not offensive.

[205, Is this flower poisonous? ]

205: [No.]

Mingnan raised his head with satisfaction, and his eyes slowly fell on the flowers.

It just so happens that the cave is lacking some decorations.

…

"Lace, I'm back!"

Mingnan came back happily, carrying a basket in one hand and a large bouquet of flowers in the other.

She put the basket aside, walked towards the stone table with the flowers in her arms, looked around, and found that there was no vase.

She remembered that it seemed to be in those boxes.

But last time, Les had moved all the boxes into the inner cave.

She thought for a moment, then walked to the stone wall and knocked, "Lace, can I come in?"

No one responded.

"Lace?"

Mingnan frowned, "You went out again?"

She couldn't help but take a look inside, and as soon as she stuck her head out, she was suddenly met with a magnified handsome face.

Their noses almost bumped into each other.

Ming Nan took two steps back to distance himself from him, and asked with a lingering fear, holding his nose: "Why didn't you say anything?"

Les looked at her steadily, with an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes, and after a long while, a "squeak" came out of his throat.

Mingnan: “…”

She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She looked around at the other person's face and asked curiously, leaning against the stone wall, "What are you so angry about?"

"Who's angry?" Les asked unhappily, putting his hands in his pockets and leaning against the stone wall like her.

Mingnan heard this and pointed at the lake.

Les took a look and asked blankly, "What?"

"Go look in the mirror and see how ugly your face is before you speak."

“…”

Les pursed his lips and actually walked to the lake and looked down.

The people in the lake had gloomy faces and a cold, irritable look in their eyes.

It really looks like he's in a bad mood.

Les was silent for a moment, then he put his hands on his face and rubbed it vigorously. He turned to Mingnan and gave him a fake smile showing his eight teeth. "How about this?"

Mingnan: “…”

She pursed her lips slowly, but couldn't hold it back and laughed with her head tilted.

"Lace—"

Les still maintained his fake smile, "Huh?"

"Why are you so cute?"

Les: “…”
