Mmph—!"
The sudden attack made Ye Tian's eyes fly open.
He instantly gripped her thin shoulders!
What was happening?!
Bi Bi Dong clutched the young man's collar, her red lips moving but unable to form words.
She wanted to repay the tenderness Ye Tian had shown her.
Her purple eyes shimmered with moisture, carrying a hint of shyness as she swallowed.
An impulse grew in her heart.
She wanted a deeper connection with Ye Tian, wanted him to remember her taste!
In that instant, the impulse, like a runaway horse, made this femme fatale, Bi Bi Dong, flick out her dangerous, offensive Serpent's Tongue!
Ye Tian had fed her so many Pills.
Now, it was time for her to give back!
It was a matter of courtesy. Although her return gift wasn't as miraculous as a Pill, it could still promote blood circulation.
"!!!"
Ye Tian, who had been struggling to get up, froze completely.
His face flushed slightly.
His eyes revealed utter shock.
He stared intently into Bi Bi Dong's eyes, which were filled with joy, delight, and a hint of triumph!
He could feel it clearly.
That careful, gentle, yet nervous touch brought him a flavor he had never tasted before.
It was like a catalyst, like a primer.
It made Ye Tian's mouth water.
"Gulp~"
Ye Tian felt his breathing become obstructed and couldn't help but swallow.
A look of pleasant surprise flashed in Bi Bi Dong's eyes.
But immediately after,
Ye Tian's mind cleared.
An unfamiliar scent continuously washed over him, seeping into his chest.
It made Ye Tian extremely uncomfortable!
After refusing twice more to no avail, he saw she still wouldn't let go.
Ye Tian's obsidian-like eyes shone brightly, a trace of determination and apology within them. Without hesitation, he changed his strategy.
The scent of blood began to spread.
"Ugh!"
Bi Bi Dong suddenly let out a muffled groan.
The joy in her eyes vanished, replaced by a hint of pain.
A strong, coppery taste filled her mouth.
Bi Bi Dong froze for a moment, staring into Ye Tian's warning eyes.
Instead of backing down, a rebellious streak exploded within her!
She became even more audacious, turning her head slightly, pressing her advantage wantonly.
This started to infuriate Ye Tian.
He cursed this shameless woman in his mind!
Since she wouldn't accept his warning, he had no choice but to find another way!
Ye Tian's face turned red from the struggle.
The hand on Bi Bi Dong's shoulder instantly slipped under the soft, silk quilt.
A desperate gamble.
This time, it was Bi Bi Dong's turn to have her eyes widen!
"Ah—!"
A sharp, searing pain struck her heart.
Bi Bi Dong couldn't bear it at all. She hastily pulled back, intending to defend herself.
Ye Tian had finally found his chance.
He quickly pulled away and retreated.
Swoosh—!
Bi Bi Dong instantly sat bolt upright, her rosy face somewhat ashen. Her phoenix eyes glared at Ye Tian, ignoring the blood trickling from the corner of her mouth.
She opened her mouth to curse him.
"You damn Brat! You— you're so auda—"
"Audacious what? You brought this on yourself!"
Before Bi Bi Dong could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Ye Tian, who was stumbling back.
"You have some nerve!"
Bi Bi Dong gritted her teeth, clutching the sore spot, unable to contain her anger.
This Brat didn't just have some nerve.
He was also surprisingly strong!
"Hmph! I warned you."
Ye Tian wiped his mouth and puffed out his chest, speaking with righteous indignation, "You repaid my kindness with malice. You're lucky I'm not holding you responsible."
"You!"
Hearing this, a deep blush of shame spread across Bi Bi Dong's face, which was instantly consumed by a burning rage.
"You dare say I repaid your kindness with malice?!"
"Why can't I? I— I almost suffocated to death because of you!"
Ye Tian tugged at his collar.
He caught his breath.
He raised his right hand, the one that had just committed the crime, and was about to point at the completely ashen-faced Bi Bi Dong.
"Let me tell you..."
As Ye Tian spoke, he met Bi Bi Dong's murderous gaze. He froze, then deftly hid his right hand behind his back.
His gaze flickered away as he began to lose his nerve, stammering.
"Uh... um..."
After what had just happened, Ye Tian didn't want to stay here any longer.
He looked at Bi Bi Dong awkwardly and warned, "Uh- uhm, have some self-respect! I don't know anything!"
"We're even now."
"Don't let it happen again!"
After speaking, Ye Tian fled in a panic, rushing out of Bi Bi Dong's room.
Slam!
The door shut tightly.
Bi Bi Dong sat on the bed, her ashen face dark and gloomy.
That Brat actually said she repaid his kindness with malice?
How utterly preposterous!
Bi Bi Dong even wanted to drag Ye Tian back and stomp his wretched face under her foot.
She wanted to ask him properly!
Why would he say such hurtful things!
Was he really that unable to accept her?
At this thought, Bi Bi Dong's eyes dimmed again, a flicker of panic in them.
A voice from outside...
It seemed to give her the perfect excuse to completely abandon the idea of dragging Ye Tian back!
Bi Bi Dong was afraid—afraid she would only bring humiliation upon herself.
"Senior Brother?! What's wrong? Did something happen?"
"This is grown-up business, kids shouldn't get involved!"
"Huh?!"
Out in the main hall, Hu Liena watched as the entrance to Eternal Heaven closed quickly. The fox ears on her head drooped.
"Hmph~ You mean Senior Brother!"
"You're only three years older than Nana!"
Hu Liena pouted, and her fox ears perked up again.
She flicked her fox tail and turned around.
When the Purple Soul Ring at her feet lit up, the kettle in the corner flew up into the air.
Every morning, Hu Liena would wake up early.
She would stand on the second floor and use her Mind Power to water the flowers in the courtyard below.
Increasing the weight wasn't the only way to train her Mind Power.
Distance was also extremely crucial.
"Phew~ That was way too intense!"
Ye Tian leaned against the door, breathing heavily. He looked at his right hand, his heart still pounding with lingering fear.
It wasn't because he was afraid of Bi Bi Dong's retaliation.
After all, just as he had said, Bi Bi Dong had brought it all on herself!
What he did was self-defense!
No matter where he went, he was the victim.
Every breath he took was filled with that strange scent. Ye Tian frowned.
He immediately went past the screen to the washing area.
He washed away the residual heat from his palm, washing away the shock Bi Bi Dong had given him.
On the other side.
Bi Bi Dong was already standing in the bathroom.
Her hair was disheveled, her body leaning forward, her palms pressed against the bright mirror.
On the floor beneath her were her clothes, stained with mud and blood.
She let the cold water pour down from above, soaking her beautiful hair, cascading over her fragrant shoulders and collarbones, flowing over the peaks and valleys, and seeping into every corner and crevice.
Her eyelashes, dotted with water droplets, fluttered.
Bi Bi Dong opened her eyes. Looking at the bruise on her body, she only felt a certain fullness in her chest. As her beautiful face flushed red, her eyes filled with bewilderment.
It seemed she was giving more and more...
No!
It wasn't that she was giving more and more, but that she wanted to give him more and more!
"Gulp~"
As she thought about it, Bi Bi Dong unconsciously swallowed.
A hint of sweetness welled up in her heart.
Bi Bi Dong couldn't help but bite her red lip in shame. She was actually still craving it?
How shameless! How despicable!
Bi Bi Dong looked at herself in the mirror and stuck out her tongue.
She looked at the faint crimson bloodstain.
She had never done anything like this for Ye Tian in the past.
This time...
It seemed she could no longer lie to herself
