CH 130.1

No one expected that Jing Yue would resort to this. Even the usually stoic Qin Yanzhi had a blank look on his face.

But he quickly reacted. With worry in his eyes, he gently pulled Jing Yue's sleeve robe, his expression full of sadness and seeming to say, ‘You have done your best. I don’t despise you.’

Sang Ji was a little slow on the uptake and only realized what that remark meant after a while. She took a few steps back on the spot and the stunned look on her face revealed the blow caused to her.

“Ahem, ahem…” Jia Lou sounded as if he was choking, wanting to laugh but held back. Finally, he said, “Is there no cure?”

Jing Yue, “This is due to the technique I practiced.”

However, Sang Ji said, “If Jie-jie can do it, so can I! I don’t mind!”

This time, even the Fox Emperor’s expression changed, but he didn't say anything. He just looked at Qian Su, waiting for his answer.

Jing Yue was stuck between a rock and a hard place. He bit the bullet and said in self-deprecation, “I like men. Only men can make me happy.”

He said it very straightforwardly, and Sang Ji’s face went pale and flushed. Finally, she covered her mouth and ran out of the hall crying.

Jia Lou ignored the other party. He kept staring at Qian Su, but he couldn't find any signs of lying on the other party's face, so he said, “In that case, I won't force you.” After thinking about it, he said, “You should stay in the palace for two days.”

“Yes.” Jing Yue lowered his head and replied, and his ears and cheeks were all flushed.

Jia Lou only thought he was embarrassed, but he was actually ashamed.

When they arrived at the dormitory that the Fox Emperor arranged for them, Jing Yue said to the hesitant few, “Don’t ask. I want some quiet.”

His grave expression made everyone swallow their words back, and even Ji-ji didn’t ask, ‘Who is Quiet?”

Wei Zhentu dragged Ruan Jiu, who still wanted to stay, into a side hall. As soon as the door was closed, Ruan Jiu asked, “Did Laozu really mean that? He couldn’t dual cultivate?”

Wei Zhentu, “…”

“Use your brain. That was merely a lame excuse used by A-jing to deal with Jia Lou. Did you really take it seriously?”

Ruan Jiu glanced at Wei Zhentu aggrievedly. “Laozu said it so seriously until his ears were red, so I believed it a little bit, only a little bit.”

Wei Zhentu, “If he didn’t pretend to act that way, how would the Fox Emperor believe it?”

Ruan Jiu breathed a sigh of relief. “It’s good if it wasn’t true.”

After saying that, he suddenly said triumphantly, “I also like men, but I can do it!”

Wei Zhentu staggered and almost hit the table.

In another hall, Jing Yue and Qin Yanzhi sat facing each other for a long time.

“You…” Qin Yanzhi was about to speak when a voice came from outside. “Lord Qian Su, the Fox Emperor ordered me to bring gifts.”

As soon as the door opened, a fox led a row of men waiting outside, all of them handsome with good figures.

“My emperor invites Lord Qian Su to enjoy them slowly.”

Jing Yue, “…”

Qin Yanzhi, “…”

Jing Yue subconsciously wanted to refuse, but on second thought, the Fox Emperor’s purpose wasn’t for them to serve him but to monitor and test if what he said was true.

The Fox Emperor obviously didn’t fully believe what he said.

Jing Yue didn’t expect the Fox Emperor to be so persistent in this matter. Perhaps the fox emperor thought that he would only be considered truly integrated into the fox tribe if he married Sang Ji. After all, Qian Su was a cat, and he only joined the fox tribe because no one cared for him. But now, if he showed an interest in any other tribes, the other party would presumably welcome it.

The Fox Emperor wanted to keep him. Although a relationship by marriage didn’t mean absolute security, it was at least a shackle on him.

Besides, the Fox Emperor might also want to test his loyalty through this matter.

“Thank you for the Fox Emperor’s good intentions.” Jing Yue could only accept and make other plans.

The attendant smiled and offered a tray with only a porcelain bottle on it. “This is the holy medicine of the fox tribe given to the lord by my Emperor, which will be helpful to heighten the pleasure. Please accept it.”

Jing Yue silently took the bottle. “Thank you my emperor.”

This medicine was obviously an aphrodisiac, and the Fox Emperor wanted to see if he really ‘couldn’t do it’ but also if he was willing to be subservient to others.

The Fox Emperor had thought of everything to block his retreat.

At night, the moon hung in the sky like a smiling face, shining down on the quiet world.

In the courtyard, a figure snuck in and hid behind a bush, listening intently to the movement in a certain hall.

The room was dark without a sound, obviously no signs of that activity. The figure was puzzled. Didn’t her brother say he had sent some medicine to boost things up?

Suddenly, she heard a muffled sound. A red light flashed in the figure's eyes and she looked straight through the courtyard wall into the room. Then, she saw two men on the bed. Although they were fully clothed, one was on top of the other in an intimate position.

The figure stomped her foot and ran away in a huff, but after taking a few steps, she stopped again.

That wasn’t right. Why wasn’t there any movement during dual cultivation? No way, she must take a closer look!

In the room, Jing Yue transmitted, “Why did she stop?”

The man on top of him was an unfamiliar face, one of the beautiful men sent by the Fox Emperor, but how could Jing Yue allow him to be so presumptuous? This person was Qin Yanzhi in disguise.

The two of them were refining Yao cores just now, and they knew as soon as someone broke in. Of course, they also knew that the other party was Sang Ji. As for Sang Ji's purpose for coming here, it was even more obvious.

At that time, Qin Yanzhi only said “I’m sorry”. Before Jing Yue could react, he pushed him down on the bed.

Jing Yue felt flustered for a moment, but they had agreed before that if someone came to investigate, they would pretend to be like this, so Qin Yanzhi had changed his appearance in advance.

But for some reason, Sang Ji didn't leave, but hid in the courtyard and continued to peep.

If this stalemate continued, Jing Yue was bound to be exposed. He looked outside the door before turning his gaze back to Qin Yanzhi who was braced on top of him. The two looked at each other silently in the quiet night.

The moonlight poured in through the window, unable to disperse the darkness, but in the dark, Qin Yanzhi's eyes glimmered like deep pools. Despite the other party’s unfamiliar appearance, those eyes were familiar to Jing Yue.

He saw his reflection in them and also those indescribable, straightforward, yet complicated emotions.

It seemed like a calm lake, but also like a sea of ​​fire.

In an instant, everything that happened before flashed by like glimpses of light. The memories that he could not have remembered but never forgotten suddenly surged. The scenes of the past life and this life overlapped and separated, and the past and the present changed from chaos to clarity. In the end, only Qin Yanzhi remained in his eyes.

In a strange twist, Jing Yue called the other party's name, “Yanzhi.”

“…Mm.”

Then, Qin Yanzhi saw that the man under him closed his eyes.

Qin Yanzhi's body froze for a moment, and he couldn't hide the surprise in his eyes. After a long time, he took a deep breath and clenched his fists on the head of the bed.

His Adam's apple moved slightly as he looked at the other party’s fan-like eyelashes and suddenly wanted to see if he was in the other party's eyes.

In the end, however, he just cautiously and gently pecked the corner of the other party's lips.

The soft touch made Jing Yue's eyelashes tremble, but Qin Yanzhi didn't make another move. Just like this, face against face, lips against lips.

Blue phoenix, who was dumbfounded from the moment Qin Yanzhi pressed on top of Jing Yue, just recovered its senses, and its feathers puffed up all over its body. If not for the current situation, it really wanted to pounce on the Hooligan’s face and scratch it to shreds!

But seeing Hooligan and Jing-jing lying there like stone statues, blue phoenix couldn't help but feel anxious.

“Jing-jing! You can't do that!”

“No one kisses like this!”

“Kissing means two people's lips are in contact with each other, not just the contact between the lips, but also the use of lips, tongue, and teeth…”

Blue phoenix stood at the head of the bed with its wings on its back and started to recite the encyclopedia from some small world. At the mention of lips, it even knocked its upper and lower beaks as a demonstration.

Jing Yue, “…”

Qin Yanzhi, “…”

Although Qin Yanzhi couldn't understand it, in such an atmosphere, with a chicken jumping on the head of the bed, really ruined the scenery.

Jing Yue couldn't help laughing suddenly and Qin Yanzhi moved away in frustration. He looked at the other party suspiciously and looked into Jing Yue's eyes which seemed to be filled with mist.

He saw that Jing Yue had him in his eyes.

Qin Yanzhi kissed the other party’s smiling lips again and rubbed against him instinctively.

Jing Yue’s smile immediately froze. At that moment, he felt an electric current rushing through his body, and he went numb. One hand unconsciously clenched the mattress under him.

He felt Qin Yanzhi pressing one hand on his shoulder, hot and heavy.

His lower lip was bitten. It didn't hurt, only a little ticklish. Then, he tasted the familiar cold fragrance between his lips, the smell of Qin Yanzhi.

In the courtyard, Sang Ji had already run away in grief and indignation, but neither of them noticed.

When Jing Yue could breathe again, he was still dumbfounded, staring blankly at the wet shimmer on Qin Yanzhi's lips. The other party's hot breath brushed against his cheeks and brought a hot flush.

Qin Yanzhi turned over and sat up, urging his spiritual energy to subdue the unfamiliar desires in his body and the burning in his heart.

After a long while, Jing Yue also propped himself up and stared at the other party’s silhouette against the moonlight.

The two were lost in their own thoughts and no one spoke.

After a long time, Qin Yanzhi turned around and his expression returned to normal. “I’m sorry about just now. I lost my composure.”

Jing Yue looked at him steadily and shook his head slightly. “Let me think about it again.”

He always knew that Qin Yanzhi liked him, and he always thought he didn't take it to heart. But everything that just happened was real, and it left traces on his body and heart, making him wonder if he had missed something, or if he had any hidden thoughts.

If he also liked Qin Yanzhi, he would not avoid it. He would accept it openly and continue to like him seriously.

Before that, he had to confirm his feelings.

Like or dislike was easy to say, but as the involved party, one often couldn’t see it clearly.

Jing Yue didn't know what it was like to like someone, but he now understood that Qin Yanzhi was special to him.

This kind of special was not only due to the possible identity of the other party, but Qin Yanzhi himself.

His remark was quite abrupt but Qin Yanzhi understood in an instant. The pretentious calm in his eyes dissipated in an instant, and a hint of shock flashed. Finally, a soft smile appeared.

“Think all you want. I’ll wait.”

The moonlight flowed ambiguously between the two like a quiet painting of harmony.

The only abrupt presence in the painting sat down on its butt, its beady eyes full of melancholy.

Its Jing-jing’s first kiss was gone.

And, it seemed, maybe, the first love was also almost accounted for.

Would the first night be far away then?

Lan Ji-ji fell into deep contemplation and reflected on whether it was chasing the wrong plot. Should it hurry to pick up hundreds of BL novels to supplement its knowledge?

For the first time, the little divine pet really resented its master—why would Jing-jing make things difficult for a straight phoenix?!
