Guo Xiaoxiao wasn't joking; she was serious. He liked her too, and she wanted to give him a chance to stop him from causing trouble. With the help of her skills, Guo Xiaoxiao made a somewhat irrational decision.
She didn't consider Mikkson and Cangjue.
Arthur wreaked havoc on their tribe, killing many people, stealing a lot of things, and even abducting Guo Xiaoxiao. No matter what, he should never have been their partner.
Based on just a few charges, they are practically irreconcilable enemies. Even if Guo Xiaoxiao accepts Arthur, Mickson, and Cang Jue, it probably won't be so easy for her.
Guo Xiaoxiao didn't care about anything else. She sat on Arthur, grabbed his hair with one hand, raised her chin, and acted arrogantly.
"From now on, you'll be my partner. If you don't want to, just push me away."
Arthur actually wanted to push him away, but his body betrayed him. He couldn't push him away, and he even tried to convince himself that being with him wouldn't be a loss; on the contrary, he would gain unexpected benefits...
Seeing Arthur's hesitant expression, Guo Xiaoxiao chuckled, "What, you don't want to?"
"Um"
Arthur whispered, very softly, almost inaudibly.
"Since you're no longer willing to push me away, that proves you are! Saying you don't like me is just hypocrisy; don't make promises you can't keep."
Arthur's scalp stung a little from the pulling; Guo Xiaoxiao was gripping his hair tightly. He realized he was doomed. He couldn't bear to let go of this warmth, couldn't bear to push her away, and couldn't even argue back.
Guo Xiaoxiao stopped talking and straddled him.
Cang Jue and Miksen used a special plant that could lubricate her, but she did it so directly, which would definitely cause her severe pain.
Just as Guo Xiaoxiao was ready, Cang Jue and Mickson were already bewildered. Arthur, infatuated and expectant, held her waist and kept her still.
Guo Xiaoxiao felt a split open before she could fully envelop it, and the pain was excruciating.
As the Lionheart skill's duration ended, the boiling blood began to dissipate, the surge of energy vanished, and body temperature rapidly decreased.
Because of her fluctuating emotions, she felt very dizzy and saw stars.
Arthur was startled by Guo Xiaoxiao's rapidly dropping body temperature. Her body went from extremely high to icy cold to the touch. He asked with a hint of anxiety, "What's wrong?"
Guo Xiaoxiao waved her hand, indicating that he was alright.
"It's nothing, I'm just a little dizzy."
As soon as she finished speaking, Guo Xiaoxiao closed her eyes and collapsed to the ground.
Silence reigned. Of the remaining four, Miken and Cang Jue were lying motionless on the ground, Guo Xiaoxiao had fainted, and Arthur had been waiting on the bed for a long time before regaining his senses.
…
Guo Xiaoxiao didn't know how long she had been unconscious. When she woke up, she was lying on a stone bed.
My head is spinning, and I haven't been able to recall anything from last time for a while.
She sat up unsteadily. There was a hole in the stone house facing east, and the sunlight was so intense she couldn't help but squint. She stretched out her arms, took a deep breath, and savored the fresh air.
When she tried to get out of bed, she realized she was naked, covered with animal skins. Her memories began to flood back, and the things she had done came vividly to mind.
Ahhh…
Oh my god, what happened? Did you force yourself on Arthur? Slap him relentlessly? Did it work in the end?
Guo Xiaoxiao quickly checked if there were any extra beast marks on her arms. Thankfully, only Mikesen and Cang Jue didn't have any extra beast marks, meaning their pairing attempt had failed.
Whether it succeeded or not, I can't face those three anymore. I've lost all face. What on earth is this Lion King's Heart? I remember activating it was to give courage, to threaten the other party with death, and force them to submit. How did it turn into lust?! Seduction?
How could she do such a thing? Guo Xiaoxiao was completely baffled. The more she thought about it, the more frustrated and upset she became. Finally, she picked up the animal hide next to her and threw it far away, letting out a scream as if to vent her anger.
"ah--"
Upon hearing Guo Xiaoxiao's call, footsteps immediately sounded outside the door, and Arthur rushed in.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
Seeing Arthur's anxious expression, Guo Xiaoxiao's heart skipped a beat. She wished she could disappear into the ground; she was so incredibly embarrassed.
Guo Xiaoxiao bit her lip and decided to go all out.
Arthur
Arthur was taken aback by the sudden change in tone.
"Um?"
"Um, last night, didn't I...?"
Guo Xiaoxiao had just woken up, her thoughts still reeling. Now that she was fully awake, she realized this wasn't the time to ask what had happened that night; she should be concerned about Miken and Cang Jue's condition.
"What did you do to Mickson and Cang Jue? Where are they?"
Upon hearing their names, Arthur's expression visibly changed, but he still answered her.
"I didn't kill them; I've locked them up in another place."
Guo Xiaoxiao said, "What's the point of locking them up? Just let them go back. I'll stay here and not go anywhere, okay?"
As she spoke, Guo Xiaoxiao felt a little dizzy again. She rubbed her forehead to cheer herself up, and Arthur, seeing this, went over and hugged her.
"You've just woken up, so it's best not to move around too much."
Guo Xiaoxiao said, "How long have I been asleep?"
Arthur said, "You've been sleeping for almost four days."
"Four days? How could I possibly sleep for that long?"
Guo Xiaoxiao was very surprised; she thought it would only take two days at most, but it turned out to be four days.
Arthur said, "Don't move around, you need to rest."
Guo Xiaoxiao said, "I don't need to rest anymore, I've rested long enough. Take me to see them."
Arthur sensed Guo Xiaoxiao's subtle movements. Feeling restless with him holding her, he lowered his head and kissed her forehead.
"How are you"
Guo Xiaoxiao blinked, a little confused.
You seem strange.
"You've just woken up; it's not a good time to move around. We'll talk about it once you've recovered more."
After saying this, the Arthurian tribesman wrapped Guo Xiaoxiao in animal skin. The weather was getting cooler, so even with the thick wrapping, she wouldn't feel hot. He then carried Guo Xiaoxiao in his arms and walked out of the stone chamber.
They placed her on a wooden chair and adjusted it to a comfortable position. Guo Xiaoxiao leaned back, basking in the winter sun. But she didn't have time to enjoy it; she asked...
How are they?
"It's alright, those two are Star Ring Beastmen, they're tough. They were poisoned by my scorpion venom, but they'll recover after a while, so don't worry. But you..."
Arthur wasn't angry; on the contrary, his tone was calm, showing no sign of displeasure. Guo Xiaoxiao was quite shocked by Arthur's change. She couldn't believe that Arthur had suddenly changed his personality and become a good person; there must be a reason.
Could it be that he's scared after she slapped him a few times while he was sitting down last time?
Guo Xiaoxiao guessed Arthur's thoughts. "Impossible," she thought, "would he be afraid of being hit a couple of times?" She tentatively asked...
What's wrong with me?
"You were suddenly unconscious for so many days, are you alright?"
"So it was out of concern for her," Guo Xiaoxiao said.
"It's alright, I just slept too long and feel dizzy and a little hungry, but otherwise I'm fine."
Arthur stared into her eyes
"And what about me?"
Guo Xiaoxiao: "What??"
