Chapter 62: Still Her Little Sweetie
“It’s not just it.”
He slightly released her and pulled out a green peacock’s tail feather, a colorful seven-petaled flower, a handful of berries, and even… an unweaned golden snub-nosed monkey from his embrace!
“Squeak squeak squeak~”
Weren’t these all the things she had seen in the sky just now and muttered that she liked? He caught them all?
She had originally felt that since he transformed into his beast form, there was no one to discuss things with her, losing a part of the fun.
She never expected that he had memorized every single word she said in his heart.
Inexplicably, a sense of happiness filled her entire body, just like when she was in the villa, being pestered by her little sweetie who acted spoiled, acted cute, and whose eyes and heart were full of her.
She didn’t care; he was her little sweetie.
Even if he had become the illustrious War God.
Su Miantang’s eyes shone brightly, and she wanted to reach out and pet his head again. But then she remembered that he was full of youthful vigor right now, prone to going into heat at the drop of a hat, and absolutely could not be provoked. So, she forcibly restrained herself.
“You caught the little golden monkey, but what about its mother?”
Aslan raised an eyebrow: “Catch its mother too?”
“Pfft—” The young girl pushed him, and he took the opportunity to clasp her hand. “Do you like them?”
“I like them.”
It’s just a bit immoral.
She picked up that beautiful tail feather, seemingly having already visualized a green peacock running away in terror, clutching its butt.
Aslan: “It can be used as a bookmark for your books.”
“Exactly what I thought, it’s just the size…”
Wait!
As Su Miantang spoke, she suddenly stopped and looked at him suspiciously. “How do you know I like to read?”
Aslan paused slightly. “Isn’t there a row of bookshelves in your birdcage?”
Su Miantang: “…It’s a four-story, mega, detached villa!”
“Alright.”
The man smiled dotingly, propping himself up with one hand behind him. Once he brought her to his home, she would admit that it was a birdcage.
“What flower is this?” She picked up the magical flower with seven petals in seven colors and asked him curiously, “Why is it so special?”
“The Flower of Seven Emotions.” Aslan stared at her intently. “Legend has it that only a lover plucking it for their true beloved can successfully pick this flower.”
“Oh~” Su Miantang nodded. “Understood. Someone with incredibly strong combat power can also pick it.”
A teasing smile spilled from the corners of Aslan’s eyes, and he clasped her hand even tighter.
Sooner or later, she would believe him.
“Chirp chirp chirp~”
“Squeak squeak squeak~”
The adorable little hairball hopped onto her shoulder to sing, and the little golden monkey rubbed against her fingers acting cute. Su Miantang was so charmed she petted one with each hand. As she was petting them, she noticed their bodies were trembling.
“They look very scared. Why aren’t they running away? Did you use your combat power?”
“No.”
“Then…”
She brought the little hairball in front of him. The little creature was so terrified it let out a ‘chirp’ and dove headfirst into her collar, leaving only its perfectly round butt exposed and trembling.
“Haha~”
She seemed to know why they didn’t run away.
They were so scared their legs went soft by a certain bad-guy white tiger who took things by force.
“I’m done playing. Let’s send them back, lest they get stressed out later.”
“Alright.”
With a wave of Aslan’s fingertips, the two adorable little creatures instantly vanished from sight, replaced by white swans slowly swimming to the riverbank in front of them and dancing gracefully.
“A swan dance?” She ran over in pleasant surprise. “It’s the two we just saw.”
They were still dancing, arching their necks and spreading their wings, forming thousands of beautiful and graceful shapes. It was absolutely gorgeous. Just as they were performing the most intimate movement, Aslan walked over.
“Susu, I’ve been so well-behaved, do you want to reward me?”
“Reward you with what?”
“Like them, mouth against mouth.”
Su Miantang: “…” Isn’t that just kissing? Saying it in such a fresh and refined way!
“If you don’t speak, I’ll take it as you agreeing.”
He was very domineering. Pulling her close, he was about to claim a kiss, but just as he lowered his head, he heard a rumbling sound.
“Uh…”
Su Miantang somewhat awkwardly rubbed her own stomach.
“I was in such a rush to come back and see you this morning that I forgot to eat.”
“Really?”
Aslan’s eyes lit up, his intense heartbeat suppressing his restless desires.
“Then I’ll take you to eat.”
“Eat? How do we eat here?”
He wasn’t going to catch a wild pheasant, wild fish, or wild boar and roast it to eat, was he?
“Next stop, Food Planet.”
“Ah? We’re changing to another planet again?”
But…
She remembered that today’s training for the Big Golden Retriever wasn’t finished yet.
If she broke the appointment, would the trust he had so painstakingly built in her collapse?
She looked at the man somewhat tentatively.
“Lanlan, if I bring up other males right now, what would you do?”
As soon as the words fell, the man’s eyes, which had just been filled with tender affection, instantly turned icy cold. His tone was as calm as a bloodless murder. “I will make you ‘fly to the heavens’ right here, and…”
He leaned over, seriously threatening her, “You can cry to the heavens, but they won’t answer; you can cry to the earth, but it won’t help. You will only be under me, day and night without rest…”
“…” Su Miantang trembled all over. “He’s just a beast.”
“Then I will also transform into a beast.”
“…” Su Miantang trembled even more fiercely and immediately interrupted him. “Let’s go, to the Food Planet.”
Aslan chuckled.
It would have been better if she had been this obedient earlier.
The Food Planet truly lived up to its name. It gathered delicacies and famous dishes from all major planets across the Central Star System. Just the restaurant names alone dazzled Su Miantang’s eyes.
“Let’s go with this one.”
“‘By the Flower Stream.’ It sounds very fragrant.”
“Alright.” Aslan looked at the name, laughter blooming in his eyes. “It’s a couples’ restaurant. Susu really is deliberately seducing me everywhere…”
A miscalculation!
Su Miantang flipped the screen, about to change to another one, but the man pressed down on it.
“Just this one.”
By the Flower Stream was located in the center of a massive floating garden. Because it was a viral couples’ restaurant, there was an endless stream of guests coming and going. To ensure their beautiful date wouldn’t be disturbed, Aslan put on a mask before entering the store.
Su Miantang frequently glanced at him, which put the man in a delightful mood.
“Susu, control yourself a little while we’re outside. I’ll satisfy you when we get home.”
“…I just think you seem even more eye-catching wearing this mask.”
A half-face jade tiger mask in a moon-white hue, engraved with butterfly patterns. It added a bit of mystery to his already handsome and touching face.
Aslan: “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It’s perfectly normal.”
“Narcissistic tiger~” Su Miantang rolled her eyes at him, turning to walk towards the restroom. “I’m going to wash my face. Wait for me here.”
“Alright.”
Just as the young girl had said, the man was attractive without the mask, but even more so with it.
The moment he took his seat, he drew the attention of all the females in the entire restaurant.
The lower half of the handsome face visible beneath the mask, his superior figure, his noble temperament, and his charming every move made hearts flutter. It felt as though everyone had a little rabbit tucked in their chests, thumping wildly.
He’s way too handsome, right?
From the looks of it, he probably wasn’t from the Central Star System. His temperament was different from the docile, submissive males here. He gave off an extremely oppressive feeling, full of sexual tension, giving off the sensation that he could easily and completely control your body and mind.
For a moment, all the females in the restaurant were moved, involuntarily looking toward him one after another, not even caring about the husbands sitting right in front of them.
Finally, two minutes later, an exceptionally attractive female in a red dress gathered her courage and walked over with a wine glass in hand.
