Chapter 142: Miss Sivana, Your Boyfriend Is Hungry
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse.
The silver moon was like frost, shuttling through the darkness, shining through layers of gauze curtains.
Xia Li looked at the familiar ceiling, a little lost in thought.
Speaking of which, he hadn’t slept in his own bed for many days.
Now this bed was filled with the milky scent of Lucia and the faint smell of the baby cream Xia Li had bought for her to use on her face.
The winter night was much quieter than the summer, the surroundings were silent, as if even the sound of his own heartbeat was infinitely amplified in this quiet environment.
The evil dragon beside him moved again, as if turning over.
Xia Li’s hand, which was resting on the bed, slid forward like a snake, exploring.
Since the two were separated by a quilt, there was a lot of distance between them, and Xia Li fumbled for a long time without catching his target. The evil dragon wrapped herself up like a rice dumpling, the tightly tucked quilt leaving no gaps, Xia Li’s hand couldn’t get in, seriously suspecting that this evil dragon was guarding against him.
“Can’t sleep?” Xia Li asked softly.
Lucia turned over again, her beautiful eyes blinking in the darkness.
“I thought of a solution.”
“…What solution?”
Xia Li couldn’t keep up with the evil dragon’s leaping thoughts.
“There’s Mianhua’s cat bed in the living room, I’ll let Mianhua sleep in her own bed, and the small dark room can be left for you!”
“…I don’t think you should use your clever little brain for this kind of thing,” Xia Li paused and said, “You just need to be silly and leave everything to me.”
“I’m not stupid!”
“Alright, alright, then think about it, Mianhua is so close to me, if she comes to my room in the middle of the night to sleep with me, it won’t be good.”
“…”
Lucia was briefly silent for a moment.
It was indeed the truth.
In Lucia’s perception, Xia Li was male, and Mianhua was female.
Humans on the Azure Continent were the most lustful race, they could hybridize with any species, what half-beasts, mixed-blood dragons, mixed-blood elves, these were all products of humans.
Therefore, Lucia instinctively still had some vigilance about this.
Her possessiveness towards Xia Li, was once like that towards her territory…
Now it seemed a little different.
Whenever Xia Li showed any friendliness towards any female species, she would feel a little concerned.
When Xia Li’s gaze fell on other women, she wanted to reach out and cover his sinful eyes.
Even including the female receptionist she saw during the day.
If Xia Li wasn’t holding her hand, Lucia would definitely step on Xia Li’s foot.
“Then there’s another way,”
Lucia thought for a moment and spoke again.
“I’ll go sleep with Mianhua…”
“Stop it, stop it.”
Xia Li directly turned over and hugged the evil dragon together with the quilt.
“Put your clever little brain away, I just want to sleep with you now.”
“…Why?”
Lucia pinched the corner of the quilt with her small hand, her neck shrinking straight into the quilt.
“Because I like you!”
“…”
“What about you, you have to make a statement too!”
Xia Li clearly felt the evil dragon in his arms flinch, she wasn’t like this before.
The evil dragon didn’t speak, and shrank further into the quilt.
“You’ve changed.”
Xia Li pouted, unhappy.
“You’ve changed too!”
“How have I changed?”
“You… you didn’t used to say that.”
“Say what?”
“Like…” Lucia’s voice was weak.
Glancing at the silvery bright moon outside the window, she hid her entire head under the quilt, attempting to be an ostrich.
“Although humans have rich emotions, they are not good at expressing them… I wasn’t good at expressing them before, but now I’m happy to express them.”
Xia Li started to unwrap the rice dumpling in the quilt, but every time he lifted a bit of the quilt, Lucia would burrow further down.
“If you like it, you have to say it, that’s what my mom taught me, so I said it… What about you? It’s your turn to say it!”
“I, I won’t say it.”
“You always used to say it!”
“No, no, no.”
The evil dragon was cowering, almost shrinking to the floor.
Xia Li was annoyed.
Where was the little dragon who used to say ‘I like Xia Li’ all the time??
Lucia had changed.
She had really changed.
According to the straightforward nature of the dragon race, she wouldn’t beat around the bush, every word was so direct that Xia Li was afraid.
Especially in the first week she arrived on Earth, every unintentional word made Xia Li’s heart skip a beat.
Now she wouldn’t say those words anymore.
Xia Li knew why.
Because Lucia understood the meaning and weight of those words.
Lucia… had become like a human girl.
Now she was just a shy girl.
“What are you shy about… Stop shrinking, you’re going to fall off!”
Xia Li stood up on the bed in annoyance, picked up the bundle that had retreated to his feet and was about to roll off the bed, and threw it back to the head of the bed.
“I’ll think about it seriously!”
Lucia’s quilt wriggled and crawled on the bed, automatically moving half a meter away from Xia Li.
Fortunately, the bed in the master bedroom of Xia Li’s house was 1.8 meters wide, otherwise it wouldn’t be enough for the two of them to toss and turn.
“What are you thinking about, what’s there to think about?” Xia Li laughed in anger.
“Calm down…”
Lucia’s voice came from under the quilt.
“You calm down, I’m still cold down there.”
Xia Li muttered in dissatisfaction and got out of bed to draw the blackout curtains.
The bright moonlight was shut out, and the room fell into darkness.
For Lucia, she had begun to understand human emotions.
However, it would take a little time for her to personally experience these emotions.
Xia Li liked this delicate little dragon very much.
The only flaw was that it would be better if she didn’t hide from him.
“Good night!”
He said these two words angrily.
Xia Li waited for a while, but didn’t hear the evil dragon’s response.
She must be pretending to be asleep.
Forget it, forget it.
Turn half a circle to the left, turn half a circle to the right, lift your foot, retract your leg.
Xia Li also wrapped himself up as a rice dumpling, and then fell asleep peacefully.
◈◈◈
“Meow~”
“Meow meow~”
Early the next morning, the meowing outside the bedroom door woke Xia Li from his sleep.
Opening his eyes, he found himself lying on the floor in a strange posture.
His upper body was on the floor, his lower body was on the bed, and his whole body was hanging by the side of the bed.
Rubbing his stiff neck, Xia Li climbed back onto the bed and glanced at the evil dragon who had her back to him.
Could it be that this evil dragon took revenge in the middle of the night and kicked him off the bed with a Foshan Shadowless Kick?
Xia Li circled the bed, came to Lucia’s side, and poked her soft cheek with his hand.
Now she knew to keep her nose out to breathe.
Last night, she didn’t show her face at all, never giving Xia Li a chance.
“Hey, Miss Lucia Sivana, your cat is hungry.”
Xia Li crouched down, blocking the faint morning light that was trying to squeeze in through the gap in the curtains.
He pinched the two soft cherry lips, watching the evil dragon’s lips being pinched by him like a duck’s beak, Xia Li couldn’t help but laugh.
“Hey… Wake up!”
“Now it’s not just your cat that’s hungry, your boyfriend is also quite hungry.”
“…”
After a long silence, Lucia’s fair forehead wrinkled slightly, it seemed she was about to wake up.
Xia Li took this opportunity to lower his head and kiss her forehead.
Then, the originally jade-like cheeks bloomed like peach blossoms in spring, turning rosy at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“Awake?”
No response.
Still pretending to be asleep!
Xia Li found it amusing and kissed her again.
Then her cheeks became even rosier.
Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her neck unconsciously shrank into the quilt.
“The next kiss will be on the lips!” Xia Li reminded her kindly.
“Meow~”
At the same time, there was another cry from Mianhua outside the room.
“…Hoo!”
Lucia sat up from the bed with a whoosh.
“I, I dreamed of being gnawed by a pig!”
She patted her chest, with a lingering fear on her face.
◈◈◈
“…”
Xia Li’s words were stuck in his throat.
“Cook, cook, Mianhua must be hungry, and we have to give her cold medicine too…”
The evil dragon rolled on the bed, then stepped into her slippers and went to the living room to feed Mianhua.
“…What about me!”
Xia Li followed her unhappily.
Lucia silently poured a glass of hot water, and then added a small handful of cat food to the water bowl.
This was what the pet doctor had told her yesterday, Mianhua was only two months old, her digestion and chewing ability were poor, and she could only eat softened cat food.
She put her finger in the water and stirred it, feeling that the temperature was about right.
Lucia fed Mianhua, and then went to fiddle with the goldfish in her two glass tanks.
Xia Li followed her around the whole time.
“What about me, what about me.”
Xia Li chanted like a monk, endlessly in Lucia’s ear.
Lucia went to the kitchen, he followed her to the kitchen.
Lucia went to the balcony, he also followed her to the balcony.
Until Lucia came to the bathroom door, she looked back at Xia Li with some suspicion.
“I’m going to the bathroom…” she said.
Xia Li stopped and joked with a straight face.
“I won’t look, just listen to the sound.”
“…”
The evil dragon’s eyebrows twitched, she pushed Xia Li’s shoulder and pushed him out.
“…Get out!”
Although the evil dragon now behaved like a delicate girl who had just fallen in love, her strength was not weak at all.
Xia Li was pushed out of the door.
The bathroom door slammed shut with a ‘bang!’, and a gust of wind blew Xia Li’s hair into a mess.
“Sigh.” Xia Li sighed.
Now she was really guarding against him.
But it was also fun to tease her…
Xia Li went to the kitchen to tidy up, there was still a lot of stuff he had brought back from Mrs. Fang last time.
It was all bottles and jars, and easy-to-store vegetables.
He threw two eggs into a pot of cold water and steamed four sweet potatoes in the pot.
As breakfast, this was enough for a normal person.
But considering the evil dragon’s appetite…
Xia Li opened the refrigerator, at a loss.
“Finished washing up?”
The evil dragon appeared beside Xia Li, shaking her dragon claws, her face still covered with water droplets, and her body had a fresh scent of toothpaste.
“Yes.”
“Let me smell.”
“No, no!”
As soon as Xia Li finished speaking, he bent down, and the evil dragon was so frightened that she stepped back repeatedly.
So he had to straighten up, Xia Li, who had failed to get his way, sighed repeatedly.
“Why are you so guarded against me?” Xia Li said discontentedly.
Lucia squatted down, picked up Mianhua who was rubbing against her feet, and asked in a low voice.
“What’s our relationship now…”
“Couple!” Xia Li answered immediately.
“But, but…”
“But what?”
Lucia couldn’t say.
There were many things she didn’t understand yet.
Xia Li had also said this word last time, and she had looked it up online.
There were many things couples should do, like dating, eating, watching movies…
Lucia had never been to a movie theater, and she didn’t seem to have any so-called dates in her memory, except for eating, they didn’t seem to have done anything else.
Did this… count as a couple?
And, most importantly.
They hadn’t confirmed their relationship.
It said online that to confirm a relationship, you had to express your feelings, I had to express my feelings, then hug each other and kiss, and make a promise for the future.
This was the procedure for confirming a relationship.
Lucia didn’t know if what happened outside the amusement park last time counted.
If it counted, then what was the next step…
What should she do?
And how should she respond to human expectations?
Lucia in the past never thought about these questions.
Now that she thought about these questions more, her heart became confused.
“Hoo hoo…”
Lucia’s mind was in a mess thinking about things.
On the stove, the water in the pot had been boiling for a while.
Xia Li lifted the lid.
“The sweet potatoes need to be steamed for a while longer, but if the eggs are boiled for too long, the yolk will turn green, and the nutrients will also be lost.”
He took two chopsticks, poked them into the holes of the steamer, lifted the steamer while explaining to Lucia.
“Oh, it seems like one egg has burst… The fire was too high, you eat the whole one later.”
“You’re still growing, eat more and gain some weight, it’s best to develop a little all over your body, so that when I go out with you, people won’t think I’m dating a minor.”
Xia Li started chanting again.
Lucia quietly watched him, and then touched the head of Mianhua in her arms.
What development, no development…
Xia Li was clearly thinking about the two lumps of fat on her chest!
Zhou Anqi had said that boys’ minds were easy to guess.
Male psychology was child psychology.
Sometimes thinking too much made things complicated, their minds might be simpler than pigs.
Zhou Anqi also said… When men and women were together, if the boy was as honest as a piece of wood and didn’t move, it meant he didn’t like her enough.
If he was touchy-feely and always wanted to do something to her, it meant he liked her very much.
Xia Li probably… liked her very much.
Then how should she respond to his feelings?
“Hiss…”
Xia Li picked up the whole egg from the side of the pot, he reached out to scoop it up, but his finger accidentally poked into the hot water, scalding him so badly that he almost jumped up.
Seeing this, Lucia quickly put Mianhua down and rushed forward in two steps.
She grabbed his hand, lifted the scalded finger, and pressed it against her earlobe.
It was said online that the ear was the place with the lowest surface temperature.
Therefore, many humans’ first reaction after being scalded was to pinch their earlobes to cool down.
Xia Li’s finger moved, he pinched the soft little ear, and his heart skipped a beat.
The two looked at each other.
In the quiet kitchen, the rising sun was slowly creeping into the room.
Looking at the hero standing against the light, his golden hair seemed to be glowing.
“Xia Li…”
Lucia put down the two fingers and felt their temperature.
Xia Li actually saw a look of distress in the evil dragon’s eyes.
Her emotions were getting richer and richer…
Xia Li felt his heart melting.
“Huh?”
“I don’t know what to do…”
“What to do?” Xia Li was puzzled.
“I don’t know what to do to make you feel like liking me is worth it…”
“…”
Xia Li paused, smiled, and picked up the warm egg from the stove and put it in Lucia’s small hand.
“You don’t have to do anything, I feel it’s worth it now, very worth it.”
“I… Am I worth it?” Lucia lowered her head.
She didn’t understand anything.
Even if she could understand human emotions, she didn’t know what to do with these emotions, what she should do as a ‘girlfriend’.
If Xia Li chose to be her boyfriend…
He would be at a big disadvantage.
After all, she was really stupid.
“I don’t know what a confession is…”
Lucia felt her palms warm, as if even the weight of this egg had become heavier.
“Confession?” Xia Li smiled.
This was what the evil dragon wanted to think about?
“You’re silly, this kind of thing is too difficult for you…”
“And, haven’t you confessed many times?”
“Just saying ‘I like Xia Li’ is enough?” Lucia looked up and asked.
Xia Li nodded, put a box of yogurt from the refrigerator in Lucia’s hand, and added.
“Companionship is the most affectionate confession.”
