Chapter 657 - 587: Reluctant Farewell
When the storm had calmed, Shen Tang was already exhausted and fell into a deep sleep.
Shen Li gently cradled the lovely little female in his arms, gazing at her flushed cheeks against her pale complexion, her lips ripe from kisses, slightly parted as she breathed lightly.
His tender heart throbbed, and his slender, jade-like fingers gently brushed back her sweat-dampened hair, tucking it neatly behind her ear.
The fierce, wild demeanor seemed to be nothing but an illusion.
"Truly adorable." His heart swelled with contentment, and he lowered his head to kiss her nose lovingly, pecking softly at her lips as if he couldn’t get enough, wishing he could kiss her entire body.
Merely thinking about this reignited the barely contained fire within Shen Li.
He quickly suppressed the stirring within him, sighed softly, and reluctantly released her, donning a robe, and quietly made his way to the study to pick up the Blood Clan prophecy book once more.
Since discovering his true identity, Shen Li’s view of the Blood Clan was no longer detached.
He yearned to learn more, about the Blood Clan, about his mother, and especially how to help Shen Tang achieve everything she desired.
As dawn approached, Shen Li set the book aside and returned to bed, drawing Shen Tang into his embrace.
The first rays of morning light fell through the window.
Shen Tang woke in a daze, the image of the man’s exquisite, handsome face was what met her eyes. His vivid red hair intertwined with her loose ink-black locks, inseparable, as one, just like the closeness of last night.
Her cheeks flushed as she instinctively glanced at her bare yet clean body, hardly daring to recall the absurdity of the previous night.
This fox, truly an enchanting spirit!
She puffed out her cheeks, gently poking his face.
"Hmm? Xiao Tang’er?" The man awoke leisurely, his voice hoarse with weariness, his tone lazily soft, making one’s ears tingle. The fox ears and furry tail at his hair quietly emerged, slipping under the covers, softly brushing against her thigh and waist.
Ticklish, tingling.
Shen Tang’s attention was immediately caught; she was always defenseless against his fluffy tail, turning to cuddle it like a beloved toy, rubbing it fondly.
Perhaps the morning naturally brought a male’s excitement; even such a minor act caused Shen Li’s lower abdomen to heat up. He tightened his hold on her arms, pressing her entire back against his chest.
The two embraced closely, bodies pressed tightly together, every slight change acutely perceptible.
Shen Tang’s face instantly burned.
Even though last night was already...
Ugh, why is this man still so energetic?
She grabbed his arm angrily and bit down.
"Hmm? Just here?" Shen Li leaned closer to her soft lips, their breaths intertwining again, his voice low and teasing, with a hint of danger, "...Try biting somewhere else, it might hurt more."
His hand slid to a place it shouldn’t go.
Before Shen Tang could escape, the man turned and trapped her firmly in his embrace.
"Running away? Am I that scary? Last night, all that touching and teasing, I’m not sure who was doing it."
The bedding slipped from the man’s broad shoulders, revealing his sturdy and lean physique, traces of faint pink marks on his shoulders and chest stood out against his pale skin, hinting at the intensity of last night.
He lay there thus, his body displayed unobstructed.
Shen Tang didn’t intentionally look, but still caught a glimpse, her earlobes instantly flushing crimson!
Why again...
Ugh, her whole body is still aching.
Does this man need to be so spirited this early in the morning? After a whole night of havoc, at least let her have something to eat first...
Shen Li saw her embarrassed and annoyed expression, a mischievous amusement gleamed in his eyes.
He supported her by the waist, turned her over to lean against the side of the bed, let her drape over him, flicking her forehead lightly, "Alright, I’m done teasing you."
"Let me down. I don’t want to be with you anymore, you mischievous fox!"
Shen Tang refused to trust this sly fox’s words at all.
She pouted and glared at him, perhaps having cried too much last night, her eyes were still red, glistening with watery light, her angry gaze shot at him.
Shen Li only felt the fire within him blaze up again, his eyes darkened from their gentle look. He gritted his teeth, his throat bobbing forcefully.
Did she even realize how she looked...
Making his heart race.
He wanted nothing more than... to ruin her.
Shen Li reached out to cover her eyes, unwilling to let her see the madness in him. He took a deep breath, returning to a gentle, charming demeanor, his long fingers lightly combing her smooth hair, recalling his outrageous actions from the previous night, which was indeed... excessive.
