The sound of gasping that seemed to weep and narrate quietly echoed in the secluded cave.
Jiang Huai’s hands suddenly stopped. Even though Su Qingyi’s legs were pressed tightly together at this moment, her waist in the quilt was arched like a jade bridge, and with just a little more, she could have… But Jiang Huai seemed to turn a blind eye, completely unaware. Her fox ears perked up high, looking quite cute.
Su Qingyi, with her back to Jiang Huai, slowly turned her head. At this moment, her delicate pink lips were stained with water, and her eyes were coquettish and alluring, like a pool of spring water. But Jiang Huai just looked at her innocently.
She didn’t speak, and her eyes conveyed what she wanted to say. Her beautiful eyes were full of unspoken words. Jiang Huai had already reached the limit of shame, but according to the theory that extreme shame leads to shamelessness, after a while under Su Qingyi’s gaze, he slowly began to caress the fox girl’s fluffy fox tail again.
Su Qingyi closed her eyes and began to enjoy his touch. Her body tensed up little by little again, but just as she was on the verge of breaking down, Jiang Huai’s actions in his hands stopped again.
Jiang Huai had done this kind of teasing to Qingyu many times, so he was very good at analyzing her subtle expressions. He always stopped at a precise moment. Su Qingyi opened her eyes again, and they were already a little angry, but Jiang Huai ignored her, still just looking at her innocently.
“You…”
“You’re not even afraid of pain, but you’re afraid of this?” Jiang Huai blinked at her.
Su Qingyi bit her lips, her eyes filled with a watery sheen, but she didn’t speak. After a long while, as her body gradually softened again, her fox tail was gently caressed by Jiang Huai. This time, she closed her eyes. Even though Jiang Huai repeated the cycle twice more, she wasn’t angry or annoyed. She just felt the changes in her body, and it wasn’t until tears welled up in her eye sockets that Jiang Huai finally stopped tormenting Su Qingyi.
And so.
The bedding in Jiang Huai’s bed was now completely wet. Su Qingyi’s body was weakly curled up in the quilt, not even having the strength to wiggle her fingers. Jiang Huai always suspected that at this moment, she looked as if she would not resist or refuse if he did anything bad to her.
But he didn’t.
He teased Su Qingyi simply because he didn’t want to be controlled by her. It had always been him who bullied others, how could others bully him? If they wanted to play with him, they had to be prepared to face the consequences.
After a long time, Su Qingyi slowly opened her eyes. The tear stains in her eyes had not yet dried, and she looked pitiful. Jiang Huai looked into her eyes, watching her slightly unfocused pupils gradually regain their clarity.
He had thought that the proud Su Qingyi would want to settle accounts later, but Su Qingyi suddenly chuckled. Her cool eyes exuded both charm and a hint of tender unspoken words.
“I like this feeling.”
“Compared to poking yourself with a needle?”
“I prefer you touching my tail.”
Jiang Huai was flattered. He watched her delicate tongue lightly lick her lips, and she looked at him, “Do you want to be my husband?”
Jiang Huai was slightly stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed and looked at her greedy eyes, “That sounds very casual.”
“No, not casual. If you were my husband, I think it would be very good.”
“Why?”
“You are handsome and have a good physique. You’ve cultivated the Overlord Art. I’ve always been very restrained about my desires, but there are times when I want to be wild. It should be very satisfying to have you under me.”
“What else?” Jiang Huai asked slowly.
“You seem to have many secrets,” Su Qingyi finally revealed her true thoughts.
“For example?”
“The Heavenly Punishment that the Snake Clan was released from, is it related to you?”
“Somewhat.”
“Never mind, that’s not important.” Su Qingyi looked into Jiang Huai’s eyes, “Do you want to be my husband?”
“How many husbands are you planning to find?”
“If you agree, you will be the only one for the rest of my life.”
“I don’t agree.”
“What a pity.” Su Qingyi chuckled lightly, but only a hint of faint disappointment flickered in her eyes, nothing more.
Talking to a fox was not tiring; instead, it was quite relaxing. Jiang Huai suddenly realized that Su Qingyi was by no means a woman who took romance lightly. Perhaps her proposal just now was a fleeting thought that arose when her body was lazily satisfied. Therefore, when Jiang Huai refused, she wasn’t overly disappointed.
Su Qingyi brought her fingertips to her lips and bit them lightly, looking at Jiang Huai, “The night is still long, do you want to do something interesting?”
“Do you have experience?”
“I’ve seen some scripts and picture books. As for experience… I really don’t, I’ll have to rely on you to teach me.”
“Don’t you need to keep your virginity?”
“My mother always hoped I would restrain my desires, so I’ve kept them until now. But it’s okay to indulge occasionally, as long as it doesn’t get out of hand.”
“What if you can’t get it under control?”
“Such big words.” Su Qingyi’s smile was charming, “If you can really make me dizzy and fall into a sea of desire, forgetting everything and only wanting to be with you day and night, then that seems pretty good too.”
Jiang Huai looked into her eyes. For some reason, although he was listening to her joke, he always felt a hint of sadness beneath the surface of her eyes. Jiang Huai reached out and gently tapped her forehead. The movement was light, and his voice softened, “Go to sleep now.”
“Then you have to get me a new mattress. It’s sticky and uncomfortable against my skin.”
Jiang Huai took out a new mattress. The space in his System Backpack was large, and he usually carried quite a few such items. Su Qingyi crawled out of the quilt and stretched. However, because her calves were weak, she almost couldn’t stand steadily. Just as she was about to fall towards Jiang Huai, he reached out and supported her shoulder, looking at her helplessly, “Pretending.”
Su Qingyi, whose little thoughts were exposed, wasn’t angry at all. Instead, she laughed happily. Her steps were light as she walked to the edge of the cold pool and threw the wet handkerchief in front of Jiang Huai. She stood quietly by the cold pool, the clear moonlight filtering down from the gaps in the cave, illuminating her slender, snow-white body. She put her hands behind her back, her snow-white fox ears twitching slightly, and looked at Jiang Huai in front of her, “Wipe me down.”
“Ordering me around now?”
“If you hadn’t bullied me, how could I have produced so much…?” Su Qingyi tilted her chin slightly, as if complaining to Jiang Huai. Hmph, she clearly enjoyed it with her eyes half-closed earlier, it wasn’t like this then. Su Qingyi’s snow-white fox tail swayed behind her, and her eyes cunningly looked at him, “If I were you, I would obediently come and wipe me down, otherwise…”
“Otherwise…?”
“Foxes are always vengeful.” Su Qingyi’s eyes twinkled with a smile, but Jiang Huai inexplicably felt a little flustered. He finally stood up, took the wet handkerchief, and gently wiped the water stains on Su Qingyi’s body. Until her skin became smooth and delicate again, Su Qingyi raised her hands behind her back high. When the handkerchief in Jiang Huai’s hand brushed over her smooth, snow-white armpit skin, her body trembled slightly again.
“My body feels so soft because you touched it…” Her tone became coquettish again as she lunged towards Jiang Huai. Jiang Huai dodged to the side, and she missed, falling onto the bluestone floor. She looked back, her eyes looking at him aggrievedly, trying to elicit even a shred of guilt from Jiang Huai. Unfortunately, Jiang Huai’s heart had long been cold. He reached out to Su Qingyi, but she was persistent, “I fell so hard, I want a hug.”
“I’ll pull your tail!” Jiang Huai pretended to reach out, and Su Qingyi immediately scurried back to the cave entrance, lay on the mattress, and pulled the quilt tightly around herself, even hiding her snow-white tail and her head under the quilt. She refused to talk to Jiang Huai anymore.
Jiang Huai sat back at the cave entrance and let out a long sigh, his gaze drifting towards the distant night.
………………………………
The next day, early morning.
Su Qingyi crawled out of the quilt. She lifted the quilt and, with a soft sound, stood up and stretched. The light from the gap at the top of the cave fell entirely on her snow-white body, making her look as pure and beautiful as a sculpture. Jiang Huai inadvertently glanced back and was stunned for a moment.
Su Qingyi didn’t hide or shy away. Instead, she unreservedly put her hands behind her back, slightly turned her waist, and displayed her good figure from all angles, as if to let Jiang Huai know how much he should regret rejecting her proposal last night.
Jiang Huai’s gaze was direct. It wasn’t until Su Qingyi started to get dressed that he looked away. She put on a soft underwear and then a dark blue Daoist robe, completely concealing her good figure. She slipped her fair and tender lotus feet into a pair of white embroidered shoes, then casually tied her hair up with a hairpin. After that, she set off together with Jiang Huai, who was already prepared.
The two of them continued to explore the second region today. During this time, they encountered two other Fox Girls who were also exploring in the same area. After a brief exchange of glances, they parted ways. The Fox Girls had tokens for communication, and the Fox Emperor Su Qiang had also issued a decree early on. If they saw the Snow Velvet Flower in the secret realm, they would notify Su Qingyi. Unfortunately, Su Qingyi had not received any news yet.
In the past, Jiang Huai’s mentality when entering secret realms was relatively calm. He always believed that opportunities were a matter of fate and enjoyed wandering around and enjoying the scenery. It wasn’t until he was with Su Qingyi this time that he truly witnessed what a model worker was. Su Qingyi had planned their exploration area extremely well. Today, she had already slain four ferocious beasts below the sixth realm with her sword. She was also slightly shaken in her soul by the roar of a lion-like ferocious beast. She was a bit dazed for the entire afternoon. It wasn’t until late at night that the two of them returned to the cave from last night. The night outside the window gradually descended. Jiang Huai sat at the cave entrance, looking at the rolling thunderclouds in the distant sky. Tonight was likely to be a night of heavy rain.
He glanced back inadvertently and saw Su Qingyi leaning against the cave wall, her dress and skirt already removed, even her underwear discarded aside. In her hand, she was holding a spiritual pill for the fifth stage of the Overlord Art, preparing to swallow it.
She had removed her clothes to prevent them from being torn again due to the pain later. Her naked appearance was extremely alluring, yet she showed no trace of shyness in front of Jiang Huai. Jiang Huai didn’t know whether to look or not, and let out a helpless sigh before turning his gaze outside the cave.
A torrential downpour began to fall.
