Chapter 128: Successive Confessions
Forgot to put on the protective film?
Then didn’t that mean he was marked by her?!
Su Miantang’s brain went into a deadlock for a moment.
“Sister, it’s all my fault.” The youth lowered his head and raised his hand, looking like he was about to cry. “To forget such an important thing—it must be because it was too late, I waited too long, and I was dazed from sleepiness.”
Su Miantang: “…”
“I know Sister didn’t do it on purpose. You used to remind Xiao Erduo. Today you must have been too tired from work and had a lapse in attention.”
Su Miantang: “…”
“Sister is so outstanding and beautiful, and you have a group of very powerful males around you. You surely wouldn’t take an interest in a low-level, weak herbivorous beastman like Xiao Erduo. Don’t worry, Xiao Erduo will never speak of this and let Sister lose face.”
Su Miantang: “…”
“Forget it, I should just leave. After being marked, only Sister will be in Xiao Erduo’s eyes and heart. I’ll think of Sister, yearn for Sister, and cling to Sister every day. It will surely cause Sister trouble.”
Su Miantang: “…”
“Xiao Erduo will pack his things later and go be a stray overnight. I’ll never appear in Sister’s sight again. Even when my heat arrives and I yearn for pheromones until my whole body is in pain, my mind collapses, I go mad, and I die on the street, I will never disturb Sister in the slightest.”
Su Miantang: “…”
“It’s just that I’ll never have the chance to cook, sweep, wash clothes, or clean windows for Sister again. I won’t be able to accompany Sister in reading, planting flowers, or playing games. I won’t be able to transform into my beast form for Sister to play with and make her happy.”
Su Miantang: “…”
“Sister, I’m leaving. Thank you for taking care of me for so long. In the future… there is no future.”
By the time he finished, his voice was a bit choked up. Two fluffy, drooping large ears suddenly popped out from the top of his head. He turned around to leave.
“Wait!”
Su Miantang grabbed his wrist.
After a few seconds of silence, as if after deep consideration.
“Xiao Erduo, stay. I’ll take responsibility for you.”
She was the one who was late for the appointment, she was the one who forgot to remind him, and she was the one who played with him. She couldn’t just kick him away and be a “scumbag girl” once something happened, right?
Not to mention, if he left, he would experience everything he just said. The thought alone was terrifying.
Actually, knowing that his intense reaction just now was only because he forgot to put on the protective film—rather than a stress reaction or fainting from being played with—she felt a bit relieved in her heart.
“Really?”
The corner of Yue Zhongxian’s lips curled into a wicked arc. In a place she couldn’t see, he was filled with endless pleasure and success.
He had already been marked by her.
The most loyal contract in the world, until death.
From now on, he belonged only to her.
They would never be separated again, never.
“Sister, thank you, Sister!”
“Sister is too good, the best person in the world!”
He turned around abruptly and pulled her into a tight embrace.
Su Miantang was struck by the youth’s vigorous sense of power. Not only was she surrounded by his scent, but his direct and fanatical confession was also ringing in her ears. It made her face feel a bit hot.
“Xiao Erduo really likes, likes Sister so much!”
“Sister is so beautiful, so fragrant, and so enticing! Xiao Erduo wants to see Sister every day, hug Sister, and kiss Sister…”
Su Miantang: “…” It was only a pseudo-marking, and the duration was so short. Could it have this effect? Or was this kid…
Thinking this, she truly felt him bury his head in her neck and take a deep breath, as if he were relieving a thirst he had been enduring all this time. A sound of immense satisfaction came from his throat, as if to say: I’ve finally gotten it. I can inhale openly from now on.
Su Miantang: “…” Why did she feel like she had fallen into a trap?
“Xiao… Xiao Erduo, was your late-night snack reheated again? I think I can smell it.”
“Don’t move, Sister. Let me hold you for a bit longer.”
A snack couldn’t compare to how fragrant and delicious she was.
In the following days, Su Miantang continued to go to the Goldchrysallis Island for her appointments on time.
She walked side-by-side with Qin Yanzhou through the cool and romantic coconut groves, picked colorful shells on the golden beach, drove a motorboat at sea together, played golf together, took check-in photos in front of a flowing waterfall, and chased Chloe on the endless lawn.
They were free and unrestrained, as happy as a couple of immortals living outside the world.
“Here.”
On a cruise ship at sea, Su Miantang handed him a lollipop.
“It’s a new flavor.”
“New?”
“Mhm, try it.”
She looked at him expectantly. Qin Yanzhou peeled the wrapper and put it in his mouth. His expression changed for only an instant before quickly returning to normal.
“How is it?”
Su Miantang, who was prepared to laugh at him, was a bit surprised.
It was lemon flavor.
Why didn’t he have a reaction?
“Isn’t it sour?”
Qin Yanzhou shook his head. “It’s sweet, very sweet.”
“How could that be?”
Su Miantang suspected she had taken the wrong one and peeling one for herself, she put it in her mouth.
“Ugh~”
“So sour!”
Her small face immediately twisted in a grimace. Beside her, a series of low, deep, and mellow laughs came from the man.
“Fine, Qin Yanzhou, you big liar!”
She reached out to hit him, but Qin Yanzhou caught her hand. Lightly rubbing her delicate skin, his handsome eyes were deep. “No, it really is very sweet.”
Being with her, no matter what he did or ate, he felt it was very, very sweet.
“Hmph!”
Su Miantang didn’t believe him. Retracting her hand, she leaned on the railing, watching the surging waves of the sea in the distance. She thought of what the Qin couple had requested of her and then thought of Qin Yanzhou’s recent performance, feeling that her task was nearly complete.
From the beginning when he resisted and loathed her, he had slowly stopped avoiding her and even approached her proactively. His gaze and physical contact had become natural, though he was still very shy.
Now, he could even joke.
Everything was developing in a good direction. She believed that he would soon be able to return to normal completely and have contact with other females. At that time…
“By the way, Qin Yanzhou, I forgot to tell you something.”
“What?”
“I haven’t had the chance to thank your parents. Mr. Brooklyn and Mrs. Qin Xu provided military supplies for free to the Central Galaxy and donated a building in the city center to the Academy of Sciences. It’s truly too, too generous. I can’t even pay it back. But the ten billion Star Coins in my account—I really can’t accept them. I’ll apply to the bank in a few days to have them returned the same way they came. Could you tell them for me?”
“Why?”
Hearing she was going to return the Star Coins, Qin Yanzhou’s expression faltered.
Did Tangtang not like his money?
His mother had said that if a female likes a male, she will surely like spending his money.
“Because they gave too much, far too much. I can’t bear it, and I don’t need it.”
“If…” Qin Yanzhou looked at her. “What if I was the one who gave them?”
“Huh?” Su Miantang looked at him sideways, her gaze meeting his. “You gave them? The ten billion in deposits, the hundred-billion-value building, and the munitions starting at a trillion—all of them were given by you?”
“Mhm.”
Su Miantang: “…” If the Qin couple spent so much money to ask her to help treat their son, she could understand it. After all, parental love is the greatest in the world; it’s normal regardless of the price paid. But why him?
Could… could it be…
Noticing the burning, brilliant fire of love in his dark eyes, the young girl’s gaze suddenly flickered. She looked toward the sea, her eyes wavering.
There, the waves were surging, galloping, and roaring.
He… also…
