Shen Zhiyi moved her eyelids slightly, her long eyelashes trembling as if she were about to wake up.
Cang Liuyu withdrew the aggression in his eyes and looked away.
Shen Zhiyi opened her eyes, and the moment she saw him, she quickly turned over and buried her face in the pillow.
Even the back of her neck turned red.
I saw everything...
He saw everything naked...
Still in front of him...
She wished she could turn into a quail, bury herself in the blankets, and then flutter down from the window.
"Aren't you afraid of suffocating yourself?" Cang Liuyu grabbed the back of her neck and turned her over.
He met her flushed face and her shimmering eyes.
His body stiffened for a moment.
"Come and eat." He released her, his voice suddenly becoming hoarse.
His fingertips still held her warmth and touch. He turned around uncomfortably and walked to the table.
She hasn't even tasted a single bite of the Manchu Han Imperial Feast.
He curled his fingertips, and his large hands, which were tucked into his sleeves, slowly tightened.
Shen Zhiyi watched his retreating figure, but felt somewhat annoyed.
She's taken Chinese medicine and completely exposed herself, but she still hasn't accomplished anything!
On the contrary, on the contrary, it was he who...
That's unfair.
That's so unfair!
She hadn't even taken off his clothes!
She sat up angrily, walked to the table, and plopped down.
I ate two bites of food with resentment.
It's still hot.
She slammed her chopsticks down and roared at the unmoving figure opposite her, "Cang Liuyu, are you impotent?!"
Cang Liuyu: ...
"Just as Guan Yu warmed wine before beheading Hua Xiong in ancient times, Cang Liuyu uses hot dishes to counteract the effects of medicine!" Shen Zhiyi chewed excitedly, "Brilliant, brilliant!"
Who wouldn't call him a Super Boy when they see him?!
No, he didn't even react!
Cang Liuyu seemed completely unperturbed.
His gaze fell on her parting lips.
He imagined her pleading, clutching his arm, within the frozen space of his consciousness.
Eyelashes droop.
He concealed all his dark and ambiguous thoughts and did not respond to her words.
But those disgusting images kept replaying in my mind.
He silenced her cries by pressing his fingertips to her mouth.
But she didn't even have two fingers...
He closed his eyes.
"I knew it!" Shen Zhiyi said angrily. "The little notebook says you're eighteen, how could that be! It must be fake, fake, fake!"
"Hmm." He looked up at her, his gaze meaningful. "It's fake."
Shen Zhiyi was stunned.
Then, he lay on the table and wailed.
Spicy meatballs.
All spicy!
How can I get credits now?
Since her secret treasures have all failed, what tricks can she use to deceive him now?
Even if he did manage to fool her, if he couldn't perform, how could he do *that* with her?
Shen Zhiyi let out a long, long sigh.
Things have come to this.
Let's eat first.
Outside the window, a wisp of demonic energy slowly drifted by.
"It smells so good..." It could smell a sweet and cloying scent of love amidst the pure sword energy.
“Just a little bit more…” It narrowed its eyes, circling the entire restaurant silently, “Just a little bit more, and these threads of affection could have grown into the most stubborn, unbreakable desires…”
"That's what made it delicious."
It cackled.
Cang Liuyu suddenly frowned, gripped the Broken Water Sword, and flashed to the window.
He swung away the swirling sword energy.
The hustle and bustle of the street instantly assaulted my ears.
But the demonic aura that was just there suddenly vanished.
His brows were lowered, and his expression was cold and stern.
This demon is a thousand-year-old black fox, skilled in transformation and concealment, making it extremely difficult to capture.
It's even less likely that it will easily reveal itself.
Why did I sense its presence just now?
Cang Liuyu turned his head and looked at Shen Zhiyi, who was listlessly eating her food in the room.
He suddenly gripped the sword hilt tightly.
Legend has it that the black fox is amorous and has a fondness for beautiful and lovely women. It often lures them into developing feelings of love before devouring them.
Or perhaps, they could find some young partners and pick up what's readily available.
Could it be...?
A guess formed in his mind, and he looked at Shen Zhiyi.
His face instantly turned ashen.
After Shen Zhiyi finished eating, she patted her belly and took Cang Liuyu for a walk in the market to digest her food.
“Didn’t you say you were going to catch a demon?” She took his arm and rested her head gently on his shoulder. “Let’s pretend to be a loving couple. Once we’ve tricked it out and subdued it, I’ll go back to Huanzong.”
Cang Liuyu paused in his steps.
"The Joyful Sect of Return?"
“Yes.” Shen Zhiyi pulled his arm, fiddling with the pendant at his waist, and said dejectedly, “Anyway, you won’t agree to actually do anything with me.”
"You have your own principles to uphold."
"I might as well go back sooner and find a different target."
"Anyway, once this is done, I won't owe you anything."
The streets were bustling with people, filled with laughter and cheerful conversation.
Cang Liuyu felt as if he had fallen into a cold, icy cliff, with a chilling aura emanating from him.
I don't owe him anything.
He steadied his wavering resolve.
He gave a cold, hard laugh, "Shen Zhiyi, you owe me a lot."
"It won't be clear in a short time."
He held down her fidgeting hands, his gaze fixed on her intently. "Have you forgotten who taught you swordsmanship?"
Shen Zhiyi looked up at him, her ear tips turning red.
She stomped on his foot angrily, "Keep bringing it up! Keep bringing it up!"
He wrapped his arms around her waist, lifting her into his chest, her toes off the ground and away from his feet.
"Don't step on me."
He put his arm around her and turned to a deserted alleyway.
"Let me go! Let me go!" Shen Zhiyi punched and pounded, kicking and twisting her body, yelling, "I'll stomp on you! I'll stomp on you!"
Why can't I step on it?
She stomped on his calves.
But he locked his movements by putting his feet together.
His upper body was also firmly held in his arms.
Shen Zhiyi angrily banged her head against him, "You treated me like that, and I didn't even see your pectoral muscles. It's not fair, it's so unfair!"
But just as she was about to touch him, he grabbed the back of her neck with one hand and pressed her against the wall.
"Stop fooling around."
The night was dark.
The moonlight cut out a sharp dividing line.
The area outside was bustling with noise.
Elsewhere, the world is silent, with only two people and two hearts remaining, tightly huddled together.
A chaotic, pulsating activity.
Like tangled threads, no one can untangle them.
Cang Liuyu held her close, his thumb slowly stroking the skin on the back of her neck, her Adam's apple and lips, which instantly became dry and hoarse.
He bent down.
He gently pressed his forehead against hers.
"You are not allowed to leave without my permission." His voice was low and soft, as if it would dissipate into nothingness with a gust of night wind.
Shen Zhiyi was stunned.
She was pulled into his arms, her face flushed as she looked away, "Who cares about you?"
Looking at the mist in her eyes and the red mark on her nose, Cang Liuyu's heart softened uncontrollably.
"Didn't you want to see the pectoral muscles?"
Shen Zhiyi suddenly looked up.
Cang Liuyu saw the expectation in her eyes and pursed his lips. "I'll show you."
"Be good and stay by my side."
