121 A Feast of a Hundred Devious Tales (15)
People and corpses... No!
"Yes, someone has already found it."
Xie Yunhuai calmly responded to Xi Ya's questioning, a shallow dimple appearing at the corner of his lips, and said, "I didn't squeeze in. I only heard them say they found it, and then... a fight broke out."
The castle is very large; it takes about half an hour to walk around it, so Xie Yunhuai's words are quite credible.
"What do you think?" Xi Ya looked at Qin Fu'an.
Qin Fu'an withdrew his gaze from Xie Yunhuai and nodded: "Then let's go take a look."
So Xie Yunhuai walked in front, Qin Fu'an followed a little behind, and Xi Ya let the corpse walk at the back for defense and vigilance.
I don't know who changed the pace first, but eventually the trio became 2+1.
Xi Ya walked to one side, occasionally glancing unconsciously at the two people next to her who had unknowingly moved closer together.
...Is there invisible glue in the air?
Are they stuck together? Can't be separated?
Where Xi Ya couldn't see, a delicate rose branch had already tightly wrapped around Qin Fu'an's wrist, circle after circle, close to his powerfully beating veins and tendons, silently drawing warmth from his skin.
Qin Fu'an let all of this happen.
Not only that, occasionally when he gets too close, he will casually move his wrist, and then just when Xie Yunhuai can't avoid it, he will grab his curled-up fingers at just the right moment.
Cold, a temperature not belonging to humans.
In the darkness, love and murderous intent were nurtured simultaneously and spread wildly.
The warm fingertips gently caressed the cold, delicate finger bones. Qin Fu'an held this hand and never let go.
"I want your eyes." Xie Yunhuai tilted his head and stared intently into his deep green eyes. In the darkness, those eyes were like a cat's or a wolf's, each glance filled with the domineering calculation of a apex predator.
But at this moment, Xie Yunhuai wanted those eyes.
Wanting to possess, wanting to devour, wanting... to belong to oneself forever, to be forever buried within one's own body.
Every word he uttered was filled with extreme greed and desire. He appeared obedient and innocent, but in reality, his gaze toward Qin Fu'an was already restless and eager.
Upon hearing this, Qin Fu'an met his gaze with her beautiful green eyes.
In that instant, Xi Ya and Qin Fu'an clearly heard Xie Yunhuai's breathing gradually tighten and become heavy.
He really, really wanted those eyes.
So much so that even a brief pretense is hard to maintain.
He revealed that he was a charlatan.
Xi Ya gripped the dagger tightly, her nerves on edge, ready to strike at any moment.
Unexpectedly, after staring at Xie Yunhuai for a few seconds, Qin Fu'an suddenly laughed.
She stared at Xie Yunhuai with her beautiful, clear green eyes, her gaze curving into a smile.
Perhaps those eyes were too alluring, for Xie Yunhuai was stunned, staring blankly at them, so much so that when Qin Fu'an approached, he didn't even have time to react.
Until his own features were clearly reflected in those green eyes, until he felt a warm, ticklish breath on his ear...
And that question, which contained a hint of mockery.
"You just want the eyes?"
"Little Cloud, you could have been even more greedy."
Even more greedy?
Besides eyes... could I ask for more?
Xie Yunhuai looked blank, staring blankly into Qin Fu'an's eyes, his mind seemingly empty and unable to think.
Then, visibly, his originally pale cheeks gradually turned pink.
It's as pink as a rose, making you want to get closer and touch it.
Xi Ya: "..."
I shouldn't be here; I should be buried in a pile of corpses.
"Ahem!" She had to be the bad guy who broke the mood.
Qin Fu'an patted the dazed little cloud's head, saw him blushing with confusion, and smiled as he tightened his grip on his hand again.
Let's go.
Xie Yunhuai: "..."
Pulled slightly, Xie Yunhuai followed behind Qin Fu'an, staring intently at his back. After a while, he lowered his eyes and tentatively took his hand in return.
Can we be a little more greedy?
I want more than just your beautiful eyes.
I want you to be even more beautiful and vibrant.
"You two knew each other before?" Xi Ya couldn't help but let her gossipy nature overflow.
Xie Yunhuai did not react, but Qin Fu'an stopped again.
He led the blushing boy to his side, held up their clasped hands, and said with a light laugh, "Captain, let me reintroduce you to Xie Yunhuai, my future other half."
Xi Ya: "..."
Xie Yunhuai: "..."
Silence is the castle tonight.
Xi Ya was completely stunned for 30 seconds by Qin Fu'an's answer. After recovering from the shock of this answer that stunned the whole family, Xi Ya's first reaction was: "Can humans and ghosts coexist even though they are separate species? Then wouldn't humans and corpses also be—"
Qin Fu'an's eyelids twitched, and he used his spiritual power to stop his captain from uttering those shocking words.
"Captain, calm down!"
With a serious expression, showing no remorse for being the culprit who led the children astray, he earnestly advised, "Humans and ghosts are acceptable, demons and ghosts are acceptable, and even spirits and ghosts are acceptable, but humans and corpses... are not!"
Xi Ya: "...Pfft, I was just kidding, hahaha!"
She couldn't stop laughing, and after a while, she tried to suppress her laughter as she explained, "Of course I know that people and corpses don't work, but you don't understand. A top-quality corpse is much more important to me than a partner! Just like a swordsman and his sword, just like you and him."
The sword is the sword cultivator's wife.
Xie Yunhuai is Qin Fu'an's... future wife.
The corpse belonged to a corpse-driver...?
Qin Fu'an sighed in exasperation and led his real wife forward.
"Wait for me!" Xi Ya happily followed, not minding at all being their little tagalong.
"Are you talking nonsense to her?" Xie Yunhuai asked in a low voice.
Qin Fu'an squeezed his obediently held fingers and coaxed him with a smile: "How can you say that's nonsense? I'm telling the truth. I never lie."
Xie Yunhuai pursed his lips, catching the loophole in Qin Fu'an's words, and couldn't help but retort: ​​"I'm not human..."
Those around him seem easily amused by his every word and action; his eyes and words always conceal a heart-stirring smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, the man couldn't help but laugh again.
"So clever."
The praise sounded more like an insult, calling him stupid.
Xie Yunhuai felt a little depressed. He looked up and stared at Qin Fu'an's profile, which was spreading with a wild and unrestrained smile, for two seconds before silently looking away.
fraud.
[Author's Note]
Xi Ya: I have a bold idea.
Anzai: No, you didn't!
I'll post a short chapter first, and there will be another one later tonight.
