Chapter 39 So this is how people from Lanling fall in love…
Yan Jiarou turned to look at him in horror: "You...why..."
"Why?" Xiao Che raised an eyebrow with a half-smile. "Doesn't my royal sister know why?"
"Since you say I only know how to bully you, I'm going to prove it true."
"It's just that I've gotten tired of the same few ways I used to bully you. Now I might as well try something new."
He reached out and gently brushed away the strands of hair that were damp with sweat and stuck to her cheeks. His movements were extremely gentle, but his words were still quite harsh: "Royal sister, from now on I'm going to 'bully' you in a different way. You'll have to get used to it slowly."
"You!" Yan Jiarou glared at him hatefully. She knew that Xiao Che had always been such a bad guy!
However, now that she was leaning against him, her glare was hardly intimidating.
She propped herself up from his embrace, leaning against the bed railing. The thought of having to be subservient to Xiao Che and bullied like this in the future, just to maintain basic dignity and barely survive, filled her with sadness. Her eyes reddened, and tears immediately streamed down her face.
Xiao Che's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he gently placed his fingertips under her eyelids to wipe away the tear stains at the corners of her eyes: "Why are you crying?"
"Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore," he said. "I'll help you."
Yan Jiarou was stunned, forgetting all about crying for a moment. She just stared blankly at him, her clear black and white eyes filled with confusion. Her slightly swollen, rosy lips parted slightly, and her little face was flushed.
Xiao Che was charmed by her appearance, and a smile crept onto his lips. He couldn't resist reaching out to pinch her chubby cheek: "Don't you want to cure this strange illness?"
Yan Jiarou snapped out of her daze, her eyes suddenly brightening for a moment: "You...you mean you can help me find a way to cure this strange disease?"
Xiao Che rubbed her head and said slowly, "From your description, you got this strange illness after being bitten by that wild fox. It seems that the fox is quite peculiar. I remember Yan Xiao once told me about the fox's origins, and... cough cough... its motive for biting people..."
“Although it is somewhat different from your current symptoms, it is not entirely the same. Yan Xiao has traveled extensively since childhood and is very knowledgeable. Since he knows the rumors about this fox, I think he should also know how to solve it. I will ask him for you. There is always a way out,” he comforted her softly, “There will be a way.”
"Until your strange illness is cured, Yan Yan, I will be your medicine."
He stroked her cheek, looked at her intently, and said, "So, never worry. If you want my blood, just tell Yingxue to come find me, or..."
He was serious for only a moment before he became unserious again: "It's not impossible for you to come to Hanguang Hall in person."
He slowly moved closer to her, his breath brushing against her neck, his voice low and husky: "Or, we could meet in a secluded and quiet place like the rockery."
Yan Jiarou felt a little itchy from his teasing and turned her head away. Because she needed his help, she couldn't retaliate and could only whisper, "Xiao Wenqi, stop teasing me, it itches."
Xiao Che then stopped, pulled the person back into his arms, and gently coaxed, "Don't worry, I'll help you, really."
"Whether it's helping you completely cure this strange disease or temporarily becoming your medicine, I will help you."
Noticing that the girl remained silent and quiet, Xiao Che raised an eyebrow and turned her around. He saw that although there was a hint of joy in her eyes, there was also a faint worry shrouding them. He immediately understood what was on her mind.
He smiled and shook his head, saying only, "If someone really doesn't want to pay, that's fine too."
Yan Jiarou's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and she quickly looked up: "Really?"
Being young, she couldn't hide her joy on her face; her happiness was overflowing: "You really... are willing to help me unconditionally?"
Xiao Che curled his lips, his Adam's apple bobbing, and looked at her with a strange depth in his eyes: "If you don't want to, you can pay for it on credit first."
How about I pay on credit first?
Yan Jiarou's eyes darted around for a moment before she suddenly realized that this was a very worthwhile deal!
Xiao Che's meaning was clearly that if she didn't want to pay for the blood sample, she could pay on credit and pay back later.
But as the saying goes, the one who owes money is the ancestor. First, trick her into giving you his blood. Once her illness is cured, he will have no leverage to blackmail her. At that time, whether or not he repays the debt will depend entirely on his own intentions.
Even if she refuses to pay back, what can he do to her?
How could he be so certain that she would repay this so-called reward in the future?
I don't know whether to say that Xiao Wenqi is too naive or that he trusts her character too much.
Well, to be fair, she's not exactly a shameless scoundrel... While her character isn't exactly noble, she doesn't think she's ever done anything improper.
The reason she wanted to renege on Xiao Che's payment was simply because his demands were too... too unreasonable. If it were a normal request, why would she want to renege on it?
So, it's not her fault!
If anyone's to blame... it's Xiao Che for going too far!
She could naturally refuse any improper compensation.
Since she intended to deny it, it didn't matter how much she agreed. Xiao Che's claim that he needed payment to help her became an unconditional and completely selfless act of helping her.
Since it was selfless, she was naturally pleased, and her eyes shone brightly as she looked at Xiao Che: "Xiao Wenqi, you are so kind..."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Che raised an eyebrow slightly, looking at her with a half-smile: "Oh? What's so good about it?"
Yan Jiarou was taken aback, never expecting him to ask such a question. She blinked her large, dark eyes, stared at him blankly, and stammered, "This... how am I supposed to explain this..."
Xiao Che leaned closer to her, a hint of amusement in his eyes: "If you can't put your finger on what's so good about it, then it's good in every way."
"You..." Yan Jiarou was stunned. How could there be such a shameless person as Xiao Wenqi in this world!
However, she later realized she had spoken out too soon, and what followed was even more shameless—
Xiao Che lazily lifted his eyelids, smiling nonchalantly: "Since I'm so good to you, doesn't my royal sister have anything to say?"
Yan Jiarou's eyelashes trembled slightly, her eyes innocent and clear, and she stammered, "Wh...what does that mean?"
Xiao Che grinned mischievously and breathed into her ear, his warm breath making her snow-white earlobe instantly blush: "For example, give me a kiss."
“You…” Yan Jiarou’s eyes widened, her fair face flushed red, unable to believe that Xiao Che could be so shameless.
But since he had previously done her a favor by allowing her to pay on credit, it seemed unreasonable for her not to reciprocate.
She could only approach him tremblingly, thinking that she could just touch his face casually, while mentally preparing herself: kissing his cheek is nothing, siblings kiss each other's cheeks all the time, it's such a common thing.
She had assumed that since he had suggested kissing her and she had agreed, he should have taken the initiative to let her kiss him. How could she let the girl take the initiative in something like this?
But he just wouldn't.
Just a moment ago he was clinging to her so tightly, but the next moment he deliberately leaned back lazily, suddenly putting so much distance between them. He reached out, palm up, lifted his eyelids, and said, "Come here, kiss me."
But it was an unquestionable tone.
Yan Jiarou gave a soft snort, but still reluctantly crawled over.
Xiao Che was half-lying and half-leaning on the bed, and Yan Jiarou crawled over and was able to look down at him, which was rare for her.
If she moved a little further forward and fell into his lap, it would be... a woman-on-top position.
From this angle, she could clearly see his high brow bone and nose bridge, his lowered eyelashes casting a faint shadow on his eyelids.
He looked up suddenly, and his gaze met hers. Xiao Che casually raised an eyebrow. His light-colored pupils, unique to Lanling people, were as beautiful as a clear lake reflecting dappled gold. In the fleeting light and shadow, they had a captivating charm.
He casually raised his eyes, a playful smile on his lips.
Yan Jiarou's heart skipped a beat unexpectedly.
She watched for a while, and finally, without any self-respect, swallowed hard.
She dawdled up to him, and before she had done anything, she blushed bright red.
She held her breath, placed her hands in front of him, and tremblingly leaned in to kiss him. However, this was her first time doing this, and she was extremely nervous. Her heart felt like it was about to jump out of her chest, so she hesitated and moved very slowly. Just as she was about to kiss him, she suddenly stopped.
It seemed as if they were going to back out and refused to go through with it.
However, Xiao Che did not give her such an opportunity.
He pressed down on the back of her neck with his large hand and suddenly pulled her into his arms. Before Yan Jiarou could react, his lips and tongue were already covering hers, and his scent forcefully invaded and enveloped her.
He licked her lips, sucked on the tip of her tongue, and traced the shape of her lips again and again.
This was the second time he had kissed her that day.
Lanling people are naturally driven by desires. He had been suppressing his nature for years because of his delusions. Now that his wishful thinking had finally come true, he couldn't help but feel emotional.
Unfortunately, Yan Jiarou was still too young and couldn't do anything.
Unlike the people of Lanling, who are naturally gifted in certain things and can learn without a teacher.
She straddled him, unsure how to kiss him in a way that would please her.
Since you don't know anything, there's no point in staying up there.
Those who are qualified should stay up there.
He then simply rolled over and pinned her beneath him, making it easier for him to do whatever he wanted and kiss her however he pleased.
Their actions completely messed up Yan Jiarou's already loose clothes.
A large expanse of snow-white skin was exposed, and her snow-capped peaks were half-revealed, trembling slightly.
It seemed unaccustomed to being exposed to the air, trembling softly, looking utterly pitiful.
Xiao Che's Adam's apple bobbed, and his kiss gradually slid down, landing on his lips with a soothing tone.
It was incredibly smooth and creamy, like solidified milk.
Yan Jiarou beneath him suddenly whimpered, as if frightened, or perhaps overwhelmed with shame. Her voice trembled with a soft sob as she called out, "Xiao Che...don't...don't kiss me down there..."
This sound finally brought him back to his senses.
He paused, then lifted his head from her chest.
His pale eyes still held lingering desire, and his Adam's apple bobbed as he spoke in a hoarse voice: "I'm sorry."
Yan Jiarou noticed that the color of his pupils seemed to have darkened, but it wasn't pitch black. Instead, a pattern of the same color was gradually appearing around his brown pupils. The two colors overlapped, which is why they appeared darker.
Yet it exudes an alluring and seductive charm.
At this moment, Xiao Che looked very different from usual. His breath became increasingly hot, his breathing became heavy, and even his Adam's apple turned red.
His Adam's apple was already that big, and now that it had turned pink, it looked even more striking.
So this is how people from Lanling feel when they're in love.
For some reason, Yan Jiarou suddenly felt a burning sensation in her ears.
