Chapter 557 Next Stop (24)
The audience in the live broadcast room watched with relish as the other passengers who had been separated started their dating mission. When they came to Qiao Xi and found that Qiao Xi was still alone, they couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Even the collaboration is being neglected and unpopular.
This girl is quite pitiful.
[Maishanshan: Alas, everyone has their own difficulties, just get used to it]
[Shuiguanguan: Yeah… For example, I haven’t even collected the rent yet, and it’s due in a few days. The kid is already going crazy from poverty.]
[Seven Rabbits Digging a Hole: Why haven't I seen Sister Big Boss lately?]
[Walking to the garden to see the cherry blossoms: She was so engrossed in her new game that she didn't even bother watching the livestream. I had to give her a brief summary of the content later, and I couldn't complain.]
The familiar audiences started chatting in Qiao Xi's live broadcast room again.
When their attention is about to be diverted.
The screen of Qiao Xi's live broadcast room suddenly started flashing again.
[Eight Rabbit Buried: Stuck again!]
[Seven Rabbits digging holes: Oh my goodness, here we go again, this internet speed is seriously terrible]
[Six Rabbits: Forget it, let’s change the channel for now.]
The screen flicker didn't last long, and was even faster than before. The moment Qiao Xi's livestream went completely black, the audience got used to it and left the room one after another.
That feeling of being watched.
It was also suddenly cut off at this time.
Qiao Xi, who had returned upstairs long ago, sat next to the bed where she had been lying before. After having breakfast, she found that she could only touch some objects with a chaotic aura.
Others.
Dissolves on contact.
I simply returned to the room after breakfast and quietly flipped through a few books that were randomly placed next to it.
The door of the villa suddenly opened.
A blond boy walked in, brushed off the traces of drizzle on his shoulders, and looked up at the empty villa.
He was silent for a while.
He lifted his feet, walked steadily up the stairs in his leather shoes.
Qiao Xi was sitting on the bed reading a book under the desk lamp.
When he heard footsteps downstairs, a look of confusion appeared on his face.
The girl just put down the book in her hand.
At this time, someone outside politely knocked on her door and then pushed it open.
“…”
Inadvertently, their eyes met.
Silence flowed in the quiet air. The tall, blond boy standing by the door looked as delicate as a doll. The dim light in the room reflected in his indifferent amber eyes, and the moment their eyes accidentally met, they were stunned.
His pupils contracted slightly.
The extremely subtle change brought out more unreadable emotions. At the same time, it also made the emotions hidden deep in his eyes become more active.
It's like being given life in an instant.
Become fresh.
"Are you... here to take me to see a doctor?" The girl put down the book in her hand and looked at the boy in front of her quietly.
Qiao Xi couldn't get away from the young man in front of her.
Feel any aura that makes her uncomfortable.
There was no oppressive, sinister energy like Chaos, nor was there the cold, empty feeling of Shadow, which seemed to swallow people into the deep sea. The young man before him had a peaceful aura as he approached.
Qiao Xi could even smell the faint, refreshing scent on him.
It was like the water in a pond in early spring, clear and clean, with the fragrance of newly grown plants, yet also a slightly damp and cold smell.
"...Well, Chaos asked me to come."
There was silence for a while.
The blond boy in front of her stared at her intently, his voice calm and without any emotional fluctuations, forming a sharp contrast with the emotions dancing in his eyes.
"Then the numbness..."
Qiao Xi was abruptly interrupted by the boy's next action before she could finish her words.
Extremely sudden.
He grabbed Qiao Xi's wrist in an overwhelming position and approached her, pushing the girl onto the bed.
The boy's hair fell down a little by his ears.
Covering his slightly drooping eyelids, Qiao Xi reflexively tried to push him away and stand up. However, her wrist was firmly grasped, pinning her to the bed, unable to move.
It's obvious that the other person doesn't look like the type with a strong physique.
However, the force holding her was beyond imagination.
The boy looked calm, just looking at her quietly with his cat-like sharp amber eyes. His gaze and aura did not contain that kind of dangerous aggression.
But Qiao Xi felt it.
I was shrouded in silence, overwhelmed by his calm aura, no matter how many words I wanted to say.
When meeting those almost indifferent pupils.
I can't speak smoothly.
"No need to go out. Just get rid of him and everything will be fine."
The blond boy seemed to be talking to himself. He leaned over and opened his lips to reveal his sharp little fangs.
He bit the girl's fair neck.
A slight numbness and tingling sensation soon spread across her delicate skin. At the same time, Qiao Xi also felt the pain hidden in her body.
The power of shadow.
It seemed as if it was being devoured by some invisible force.
“…”
The young man standing nearby said nothing, his eyes fixed on Qiao Xi's face, as if observing her reaction.
The girl glanced sideways inadvertently.
Seeing those serious eyes without any unnecessary emotion, my heart suddenly skipped a beat. Is he...really treating a patient?
This weird feeling.
The power that does not belong to him is being drained from his body, and the shadow's presence seems to be weakening rapidly.
Originally able to feel it.
That vague sense of connection now felt like it was being eaten, and the power was taken away through the place where the boy in front of her was biting.
A warm breath.
The softness of lips.
His slender figure unconsciously moved closer to Qiao Xi, completely enveloping her with his scent.
The force that suppressed Qiao Xi's wrist.
I don't know when it slowed down so much, leaving only the fragile restraints that can be pushed away with a slight struggle.
“…It’ll be fine.”
Time seemed to stand still.
Until his lips left Qiao Xi's neck, the blond boy lowered his eyes to hide the intense emotions that were aroused in his eyes. His gaze was calm and without any ripples, as if nothing had happened.
Qiao Xi looked at him like this.
He opened his lips slightly, and after a long while he uttered a word so softly that it was almost inaudible.
"Are you...my second brother's friend?"
The question came out suddenly.
By the time the girl realized what was happening, the voice had already fallen. Taotie, who was about to get up and leave her, paused slightly when he heard the words. Then he turned his head slightly and looked at her.
"Second brother? Chaos?"
"……Um."
The little girl's voice was so low that it was almost unnoticeable.
"He's not your brother."
When he looked down at her again, the boy's expression was still serious. He just frowned slightly and spoke lightly.
"Your memory has been tampered with by him."
As if caressing, his hand went around to the top of Qiao Xi's head, as if feeling something.
This power.
He was very familiar with it. They had modified Qiao Xi's memory in the same way in order to proceed with the game.
I don't know why.
Those memories that should have been buried and forgotten became particularly vivid and gradually came alive at this time.
Slowly.
It spreads out in my mind, forming pictures that should have been forgotten long ago.
The girl in front of him looked confused.
Probably not sure what he was talking about.
Taotie's gaze dropped down, inexplicably lingering on Qiao Xi's rosy lips. His mind couldn't help but recall the feeling he had felt when he had touched those lips before.
As if driven by an inexplicable impulse.
His body came down without warning, and before the girl could react, he touched her lips.
Soft touch.
Warm breath.
It slowly overlapped with the memories in my mind, as if spanning a hundred years of confusion. At this moment, it was as if everything lost was found again.
A moment of silence.
Unexpected contact.
The girl in front of him instantly widened her pupils and trembled slightly. Even the breaths floating between the two of them were trembling.
The mind exploded.
It started to become blank.
It was as if some power was being absorbed, and at the same time, there was a strong feeling of dizziness and bursts of dull pain.
My head hurts.
But the touch of her lips was so clear and real, reminding her that she was not dreaming.
My thoughts seemed to be confused and completely disrupted.
No ability to think.
As the pain in my head subsided, it felt as if some power was gradually being drained away. The false, unreal memory seemed to fade away along with it.
Gone.
At the same time, what emerged were the memories on the train that were so familiar that they couldn't be more familiar.
That’s right.
She is not someone's lover, she is——
“…”
The lips that remained together seemed to be drawing strength from something. It began to grow hotter, the pure softness spreading, the kiss demanding deeper.
like.
Something has changed.
If it is not stopped, it seems that it will become uncontrollable.
For no reason.
The girl had this vague awareness, and she probably wanted to stop him. But before she knew it, the boy had slipped down around her waist, his arms around her. As he held her close, she could feel his scent.
Clean and refreshing.
Mixed with some strange smell.
His eyes gradually became tinged with an indescribable intensity. Was it anxiety or regret? It was hard to tell, but the only thing that was certain was intense struggle and hesitation.
He seemed to be holding back.
Why?
What is he holding back from? Is there something that scares him?
I was thinking this in a daze.
The girl seemed to have narrowed her eyes at this moment, and when her lips parted, she realized it belatedly and did not resist the kiss.
“…”
Taotie is silent.
His slightly disordered breathing indicated that he was not calm at the moment.
Inside the chest.
His heart was beating faster than ever before, and his thoughts were immediately brought back to the short time he had spent with Qiao Xi.
It's like falling into a secret garden in the sky.
A world of only two people.
Accompanied by the refreshing fragrance of flowers, living outside the carefree world, time is frozen and will never pass.
An intoxicating dream.
Thoughts seem to be filled to overflowing with all kinds of positive emotions. What humans call happiness, satisfaction, or the joy of reunion after a long separation seem to have taken shape at this moment.
seem.
I can understand it a little bit and feel it.
There was no change in Qiao Xi's soul.
She is still herself.
But the woman before Taotie had no memory of the past. All that was left was him, and the memories between the two of them were clear to him alone.
As always.
Delicious soul.
It fills the gap of greed that can never be satisfied, and the sense of fullness and satisfaction is as gorgeous and short-lived as the fleeting flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water.
It's just this moment.
It would be nice if I could just stop and become a moment that never moves.
so.
Qiao Xi...will not face death again. As a human being, life is ultimately limited.
He looked at the somewhat confused girl in front of him and pursed his lips slightly.
"...Want to touch me?"
The voice was a little hoarse, tinged with an unknown meaning. It was almost like a plea, but also like a request for advice. The voice sounded flat and emotionless, but at this moment, it was tinged with a subtle tension and uneasiness.
Even he himself couldn't figure it out.
This contradictory and tense feeling is very strange.
"I……?"
Hearing his voice, Qiao Xi looked up at him blankly. The boy who was holding his hands in front of her always gave her a vague sense of familiarity.
Wait until she wants to catch it.
That sense of familiarity disappeared.
But she didn't dislike the man in front of her. As if driven by some inexplicable emotion, Qiao Xi slowly raised her hand and stroked his cheek.
The feeling of being in the palm of your hand.
It seems particularly real.
The girl's fingertips traced his delicate eyebrows and eyes, and her eyes could not help but meet his eyes that were filled with scorching heat. As if being burned by such a gaze, Qiao Xi looked away somewhat helplessly.
"Is it okay to touch like this?"
The girl's somewhat unnatural soft voice came.
Like asking for advice.
He sounded more confused, probably not understanding whether his actions would offend the other party.
"……Can."
Taotie raised his arm and placed it on Qiao Xi's hand that was caressing his cheek.
The blond boy closed his eyes slightly.
She tilted her head slightly and rubbed Qiao Xi's palm affectionately: "I like being touched by you."
Even just a little.
They could make his heart beat faster and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
He was longing for Qiao Xi.
He longed to be touched by her to the point of being so obsessed that he couldn't help but think of everything related to Qiao Xi.
When I came to my senses.
Her image has completely occupied my mind.
That behavior just now.
Can it be considered eating?
When he collected payment for tasting Qiao Xi's soul, he did so lip to lip. But before he came here, he had no intention of collecting payment from Qiao Xi.
but……
Feeling Qiao Xi's presence close at hand, he should have just been doing his normal job and expelling the power that was changing her.
However, without realizing it, I overstepped the boundaries again.
I did that when I came to my senses.
He didn't quite understand why this way of eating was called a kiss. In fact, he didn't really understand the meaning of this behavior.
only.
When driven by some emotion, I subconsciously seem to want to touch it.
Until now.
Even he himself didn't understand whether this was an overstepping of the bounds.
