Chapter 174 Vest
Her long, dark, curly hair brushed against Jiang Mian's cheeks and ears, causing a slight tickle.

Jiang Mian gently stroked the snake scales on his right neck with her fingers, her voice soft: "Are you trying to make me angry by not sleeping properly?"

If I don't sleep well, my head will start to hurt again. If I have a headache, I'll feel uncomfortable. What if it becomes a long-term consequence?
Jiang Mian leaned back slightly, creating some distance between them, and cupped his face in her hands. Her clear, beautiful eyes looked at him earnestly: "I don't want you to be sad, you know? Whether I'm here or not, you have to take good care of yourself."

Lin Yu's long, narrow, red eyes flickered slightly, and he softly responded, "Mm."

After that, he couldn't sleep, so he stopped talking to her.

After all, sleep isn't something he can just fall asleep whenever he wants; sometimes he can't sleep, and there's nothing he can do about it.

Jiang Mian cupped his face in her hands, her eyebrows curving slightly, and leaned in to kiss the corner of his lips, then kissed the red mole below his lip.

"Lin Yu, your lips are beautiful, especially that red mole, they're so pretty and sexy." Jiang Mian kissed her gently again.

Lin Yu's long eyelashes trembled slightly, showing no sign of being moved. Only his arms around the girl tightened slightly, revealing his turbulent emotions.

"Okay, I understand." Lin Yu's long, slender, and cold hand pressed against the girl's waist, and he kissed her with a sense of control, his kiss not intense but tender.

He'll get a lip piercing in the same direction as the red mole on his lower lip. Then, when she sees the slightly shimmering lip piercing, her gaze will be drawn to it, and she might want to kiss him.

Lin Yu didn't know, but he was willing to do everything he could to win her favor.

Despite being a person who wears very few decorations, Lin Yu wanted to please Jiang Mian and made changes.

Jiang Mian had no idea that her simple praise or expression of affection had led Lin Yu to such a reaction.

When she kissed him, she would sometimes see his red eyes narrow into a straight line, slightly excited and joyful, as if he were staring at something, a slightly scarlet and somewhat obsessive love.

But when Jiang Mian opened her eyes, which were blurred from being licked, and looked over, it seemed as if she had seen something wrong; all that remained was a yearning, lustful look.

The snake's tip slowly probed into the hem of her dress...

Jiang Mian's eyes were flushed, and when he was happy, he liked to make circles with the tip of his tail, drawing circles on different parts of her body.

……

The next day.

Another day of traveling begins.

After a long journey, we finally arrived at Inkstone City.

"Who will my wife choose to sleep with tonight?" Chi Lin asked slowly, his voice trailing off, his jealousy undisguised. "Is it my turn, this little scorpion who has no wife's love?"

He wasn't eligible for the hovercar, nor for the warm bed.

"I'm going to gather medicinal herbs tomorrow, I'll be sleeping by myself tonight." Jiang Mian waved her hand casually, and before they could react, she slammed the door shut.

If she didn't close the door soon, she was afraid the other beastmen would get excited and start fighting too.

She needs to rest well tonight to recharge so that she can set off to collect medicinal plants tomorrow.

"Sigh, love without a wife is like a withered flower in the wind," Chi Lin said casually before leaving.

It's unclear whether he was mocking himself or joining in the ridicule of the other orcs locked outside.

It seems that if Jiang Mian favors one person, the others will be unhappy, but if Jiang Mian doesn't favor anyone, they don't seem to find it so unacceptable.

For example, given the current outcome, they didn't dwell on it too much. They were setting off to gather herbs tomorrow, so Jiang Mian definitely needed to rest. Thus, the others went to their respective rooms to rest.

Black Moon Mountain Forest.

Besides a pitch-black forest, the terrain here was rugged and steep, making walking very difficult and exhausting. Jiang Mian held the personal terminal in her hand, searching for a route. Several beastmen helped her clear the way ahead. Some dead branches and overly dense grass blocked the path, but the beastmen beside her cleared them with their knives. Of course, the main beastman clearing the way was Li Yan, who seemed very skilled in this area.

"What kind of medicinal plants do you want to collect?" Li Yan casually brandished the curved knife in his hand, turned his head to look at Jiang Mian and asked.

He didn't seem to have asked her what kind of medicinal plants she was there to collect. Jiang Mian said she was collecting medicinal plants, but didn't tell him what kind.

Just a few days ago, Li Yan had been roaming around this Black Moon Forest for a while.

Clearly, this mountain forest is very large. Although Li Yan has been exploring here for some time, the path he and Jiang Mian have walked onto is still one he has never taken before.

"Blue Condensation Grass," Jiang Mian replied casually.

Li Yan paused slightly, because his online friend Bu Mian, whom he had been in contact with on the cloud network, also needed Lan Ningcao.

His team is still in the Black Moon Forest, searching for the Blue Condensation Grass for the Sleepless.

However, this mountain forest is obviously very large, and he has not yet encountered any members of his team.

"Blue Condensation Grass?" Upon hearing these three words, Li Yan couldn't help but repeat them again.

For some reason, he thought of the online friend "Bu Mian" whose name also contains the character "Mian," and Jiang Mian's name also contains the character "Mian." Could these two be the same person?
He had never confused the two of them before, but now, because of a Blue Condensation Grass, he couldn't help but connect them.

Li Yan's heart started racing because of this thought.

The person he's been wanting to meet has always been right beside him?
Li Yan knew that Jiang Mian was a pharmacist and an orc doctor, but he always thought that Jiang Mian was just an ordinary pharmacist and an ordinary orc doctor.

How could it be the same person who published such impressive articles on the cloud?

Who knows if, in his subconscious mind, Bu Mian was either an old man in his sixties or seventies, or a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties.

I never imagined she was a young and beautiful girl in her early twenties.

The main reason is that the speculations on the cloud are all the two types mentioned above, so Li Yan was naturally influenced by them.

Is his sleepiness absent?
The thought of this outrageous conjecture made Li Yan's Adam's apple bob violently, and his blood seemed to surge even faster.

"Yes, Blue Condensation Grass, what's wrong?" Jiang Mian didn't know why Li Yan mentioned Blue Condensation Grass again with a puzzled look.

Li Yan really wanted to ask, but he held back: "It's nothing."

He turned around and continued clearing the way ahead.

If it's not sleep, it really is his sleepless night.

As if thinking of something, his chest seemed to heave with anger.

Li Yan opened his personal terminal and looked at his account, Yan Ri. Every message from Bu Mian had been replied to; every single one had a response. If he forgot to reply, he would apologize.

He opened his chat window with Li Yan and Jiang Mian again, sent a long message, and Jiang Mian only replied with one sentence at the very end.

If Yan Ri and Bu Mian hadn't been talking about medicine and wound treatment instead of romance...

Li Yan is about to be driven to his death by anger.

I get a response to every sentence from Yan Ri, but I get a reply from him later.

Moreover, he noticed that at a certain time, she tried to reply to that Yan Ri account, but she didn't reply to him!
Although both were him, Li Yan was like someone who had been jealous for ten years, and his whole body was filled with a restless and irritable aura.
