Chapter 117: Sleeping Together
It was just a task upgrade, and Wen Li thought it would be quick, only about three to five minutes.
However, after waiting for a while, the progress bar still showed that it was still upgrading.
Wen Li waited patiently for a while.
Until she completely lost her patience and realized that the upgrade was not yet complete.
Wen Li also realized that the progress of this upgrade would probably be as slow as the space upgrade, so he completely gave up hope.
Wen Li ignored it and left it aside.
I discussed it with the system and decided to let it remind me after the upgrade is completed.
After saying that, Wen Li continued to move forward.
It was only two hundred meters to the stream, and Wen Li was delayed for a while discussing the upgrade with the system.
After walking a few steps, Wen Li heard the sound of flowing stream.
After turning a corner, a familiar figure by the stream came into her sight.
Wen Li has already seen Pei Yu.
At this time, Pei Yu was half-squatting and put one of his hands into the cold stream.
Wen Li felt cold for him just by looking at him.
Pei Yu had his back to Wen Li, so Wen Li couldn't see his expression clearly, nor did she know what he was thinking at the moment.
"Pei Yu!"
Wen Li called softly.
Pei Yu in front did not expect someone to suddenly appear and call his name. His body shook violently, and he was obviously frightened.
Then he turned around and looked at Wen Li, frowning slightly.
"Why are you here?" Pei Yu looked very surprised.
After discovering that it was Wen Li, his originally furrowed brows gradually relaxed.
"I came to see you, what's wrong with you?"
Wen Li looked at Pei Yu's hand that was not in the water.
Even through the flowing water, one could still tell that the injury was serious. The back of the hand was red and it was impossible to tell whether it was caused by burns or freezing.
"I got scalded again accidentally just now. Let me rinse myself." Pei Yu's voice was muffled.
Speaking of this, Pei Yu became very depressed.
First, he was scalded by hot porridge not long ago, and now he was burned by fire... Pei Yu hasn't been so unlucky for a long time.
He had been used to being lucky since he was a child, and the series of bad things that happened today made him feel particularly bad.
"Let me see." Wen Li strode towards Pei Yu.
But just as she took a step forward, Pei Yu suddenly reached out to her, "Don't come near me!"
Wen Li paused, "Why?"
Pei Yu sighed deeply, and Wen Li heard a hint of helplessness in his voice.
"I'm so unlucky today... My bad luck might be contagious to you. So you'd better not get close to me." Pei Yu explained.
He wasn't talking nonsense.
Xin Yuan, take Xin Yuan for example, after spending so much time with him today, even Xin Yuan started to have bad luck.
Things were dropped and the head was hit. After this happened so many times, even Pei Yu gradually realized that something was wrong.
Pei Yu felt that his bad luck had affected Xin Yuan, and he felt even more upset.
He could accept his bad luck, but he didn't want to affect others because of himself, and he didn't want to affect Wen Li even more.
So after being injured, Pei Yu’s first reaction was not to look for Wen Li, but to come here to soak in the water.
"It's okay, don't worry, it won't affect me."
Wen Li said this with great confidence and took a few steps towards Pei Yu.
She has a lucky charm on her, so she should be fine, Wen Li thought.
Soon, Wen Li came to Pei Yu and said, "Let me see your hand."
Pei Yu pursed his lips and pulled out his hand that was submerged in the stream.
His skin is naturally white, and even the slightest mark is particularly obvious.
Now that he was burned and frozen, the red marks were more obvious.
Wen Li felt heartbroken when she saw this.
She stretched out her hand and gently touched Pei Yu's fingertips.
"It hurts...hiss, does it hurt?"
The moment they made contact, Wen Li shivered from the cold.
Pei Yu's hands were no different from ice.
"Why didn't you come to me if you got burned? What's the point of soaking in water like this?" Wen Li frowned.
I don't quite understand Pei Yu's behavior.
She, the doctor, is right here, but Pei Yu doesn't come to see her!
Pei Yu moved his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but swallowed it back.
"Feel sorry."
Wen Li glanced at the back of his burned hand. Last time it was his left hand that was burned, and now it was his right hand that was burned.
Switch hands back and forth.
It turned out that the god of bad luck had arrived.
Wen Li sighed and began to use his special abilities to help Pei Yu with his treatment.
"Next time you get hurt, just come to me directly, okay?" Wen Li sighed.
Wen Li's attitude was very rude. Pei Yu was probably frightened by her and nodded obediently.
In just a short while, Wen Li healed Pei Yu's injuries.
The back of his hand, which had been burned red, had returned to normal. Wen Li gently touched it and asked:
"Are you okay? Does it still hurt?"
Pei Yu's hands were still very cold, but fortunately his injuries had recovered.
"Thanks."
"Why are you being so polite to me? I should thank you."
After saying this, Wen Li took out the lucky charm from the space and handed it to Pei Yu.
"This is for you."
"What's this?"
While feeling puzzled, Pei Yu reached out and took the lucky charm.
The moment he touched it, he felt a warmth flowing into his limbs and bones, which was very comfortable.
He likes this thing, Pei Yu thought.
Pei Yu held the square lucky charm in his hand and waited for Wen Li's explanation.
"Something that can make you lucky." Wen Li said softly.
Pei Yu nodded thoughtfully.
"You'd better carry it with you during this period and don't lose it." Wen Li reminded.
This lucky charm is not cheap, it cost her fifty points.
"Don't worry, this is a gift from you." Pei Yu assured quickly.
Under Wen Li's gaze, the pair of purple eyes curved into a very beautiful arc.
Wen Li's heartbeat slowed down for a moment, and she looked away uncomfortably.
"Let's go! Let's go back!"
Wen Li grabbed Pei Yu's hand and led him back.
The sky darkened unknowingly.
On the way back, Wen Li took the time to sense the system update, which had not yet been completed.
Wen Li didn't care and waited for the system to remind her.
When I got home, dinner was already prepared.
Wen Li still remembered what Zhu Yan said about Meng Yu coming to see him.
She originally planned to go find Meng Yu after dinner, as it wasn't too late. However, after dinner, it started to drizzle, so Wen Li gave up the idea.
Let’s go find her tomorrow, Wen Li thought.
When it was time to rest at night, Wen Li went to bed early.
After the quilt was almost warm, Wen Li felt sleepy.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, there was a knock on the curtain.
At first the noise was so small that Wen Li thought it was her illusion and she didn't react at all.
Until Zhu Yan's voice came from outside: "Wen Li, it's me."
Wen Li's sleepiness immediately dissipated.
She sat up immediately.
At this moment, the cold air squeezed into her quilt.
Wen Li was only wearing a thin undershirt and felt cold. She shivered a little and quickly lay down again.
It’s too cold!
"Just come in."
Wen Li shouted to Zhu Yan outside.
With her consent, the curtain was lifted and Zhu Yan walked in.
The grass lamp in the room was still on, and Wen Li did not extinguish it because there was only a little bit left. Wen Li was waiting for it to burn out by itself.
But it hasn't burned out yet.
It was also because of this that she clearly saw Zhu Yan holding her pillow in his arms.
Wen Li was full of questions.
"You...what's wrong with you?"
Why are you coming here holding your pillow?
Zhu Yan walked towards the bed, exuding a faint fragrance.
Wen Li noticed that the ends of his hair were slightly wet. It looked like he had just taken a shower and came here without even drying his hair.
"It's my turn today." Zhu Yan explained.
Wen Li, curled up in the quilt, blinked her eyes, showing no intention of getting up, trying hard to understand what Zhu Yan said.
At this moment, Zhu Yan had already sat down beside the bed, and the refreshing and pleasant fragrance was flowing into Wen Li's nose.
Wen Li thought about it for a while but couldn't figure it out, so she looked at Zhu Yan and exclaimed, "Ah."
Turn?
What's your turn?
How come she doesn't know?
Seeing her bewildered expression, Zhu Yan explained, "I'll sleep with you today."
After hearing this, Wen Li's expression froze, and there was a hint of confusion on her face.
Sleeping together?
Is it Zhu Yan's turn now?
How come she doesn't know about this?
Wen Li was silent for a while, then asked, "When did you discuss this?"
"Recently." Zhu Yan replied.
In fact, most orc families are arranged this way, but Wen Li has never experienced it.
Zhu Yan carefully observed Wen Li's expression and said hesitantly, "Are you unwilling? If not, I will go back now."
Of course, the final decision lies with the wife.
If the wife doesn't want to, the beastly husband has no choice but to leave.
Wen Li looked at Zhu Yan, then at the pillow in her arms.
Zhu Yan had already brought his pillow over, and it would be very impolite for her to chase him away now.
"Okay, come in." Wen Li took the initiative to shrink inside.
She doesn't mind anyway.
Zhu Yan placed his pillow next to Wen Li's pillow.
"Do you want to turn off the lights?" Zhu Yan asked.
Wen Li glanced in the direction of the lamp wick. There was only a short piece under the flame, and she believed that it would burn out in a few minutes.
"No need, it will go out in a while." Wen Li said.
"good."
After Zhu Yan finished speaking, he lay down next to Wen Li.
He lifted the quilt, got into Wen Li's bed, and hugged her.
Just as Wen Li said, the straw lamp went out completely not long after Zhu Yan lay down.
The room was pitch black.
Zhu Yan hugged Wen Li from behind, his hands on Wen Li's waist, in an intimate posture.
In fact, there is always a certain distance between the two bodies.
Wen Li waited for a while and found that Zhu Yan behind her still had no reaction. An indescribable sense of weirdness surged in her heart.
Is it really just sleeping?
Is she thinking too much?
"Zhu Yan?" Wen Li tried to call out.
Zhu Yan responded to her almost the next second.
"Um."
"You haven't slept yet." Wen Li said.
Zhu Yan: "Well, can't you sleep?"
Wen Li: "No."
Wen Li stopped talking and closed her eyes.
Soon she felt Zhu Yan leaning towards her, his hot chest almost touching her back.
Wen Li's heartbeat involuntarily quickened.
As expected, she thought.
Several beastly men were at the age of full blood and vitality, and they slept in the same bed. She didn't believe him...
However, Zhu Yan did not respond at all.
Just hold her honestly.
Wen Li: “…”
Is it true that she was overthinking it?
Sleeping with someone is really just sleeping with someone! ?
Next, Zhu Yan did not make any movement, and soon, Wen Li heard a steady snoring sound coming from behind him.
Fell asleep.
Really fell asleep.
Since Wen Li didn't react at all, Zhu Yan didn't do anything to her.
To be honest, Wen Li felt a little depressed, but didn't know how to say it.
She was too embarrassed to express openly what she was expecting.
Before she knew it, Wen Li fell asleep.
The next day came, and Wen Li slowly woke up.
She woke up earlier than Zhu Yan.
However, Zhu Yan was also awakened by her movement.
"Hmm."
A low, muffled groan from a man beside me was particularly sexy.
Zhu Yan's long black eyelashes trembled and slowly opened.
At this time, the two of them were lying on the bed facing each other. Wen Li's eyes suddenly met his, and she felt a little embarrassed.
I felt that I had woken Zhu Yan up, and I felt a little guilty.
"You're awake. Did I disturb you?" Wen Li said in a low voice.
Zhu Yan curled his lips, shook his head slightly, then moved closer to Wen Li and gave her a light kiss on the lips.
"No."
Wen Li's cheeks felt hot.
Wen Li got up very early today because he slept too long yesterday.
There was nothing to do in the morning, and the other beastmen were still sleeping.
Wen Li plans to cook by herself to pass the time.
There was still plenty of food in the space, enough to last them until spring.
After Wen Li finished making breakfast, the other beast husbands also woke up, or to be more precise, they were awakened by the fragrance.
The first thing I did after washing up was to rush to the kitchen.
Wen Li’s cooking is very fragrant, which is something Zhu Yan can’t learn, mainly because Wen Li knows how to season the food.
When she brought out breakfast, she found that several people were already sitting in a row at the dining table, waiting for her breakfast.
Wen Li couldn't help but smile, and her already good mood became even better.
After breakfast, Wen Li planned to look for Meng Yu.
Calculating the time now, Meng Yu's family has almost finished breakfast.
Zhu Yan is accompanying Wen Li out today.
The two of them talked all the way as they walked towards Meng Yu's house.
"Did she say anything to me when she came to see me yesterday?" Wen Li asked Zhu Yan.
Zhu Yan held Wen Li's hand, walked slowly, and stayed by her side.
Hearing this, he thought about it seriously and said, "She just asked if you were there, and when she knew it was inconvenient for you to come out, she went back."
When Meng Yu came, it was Zhu Yan who entertained her, and Meng Yu did not leave any words at that time.
but……
"She seemed to want to tell you something, but you didn't wake up. She looked quite depressed."
Zhu Yan carefully recalled Meng Yu's expression at that time.
It's obvious that he's feeling depressed but can't express it.
"Really?" Wen Li murmured.
She became more and more curious. What would Meng Yu say to her?
Could it be An Yuan's fault again?
Before I knew it, I arrived at Meng Yu's house.
Meng Yu's husband saw Wen Li and hurried to report to Meng Yu.
After a while, Meng Yu rushed out of the cave with a complicated expression.
