Chapter 72 First Kiss
Wen Li's mind went blank for a moment.
As Pei Yu drew closer and closer to her, his clear, innocent eyes seemed to swirl like a vortex, threatening to absorb all her reason in the next second.
Pei Yu stopped moving when their noses were almost touching.
And so, he quietly watched Wen Li.
Too close.
The clean, refreshing scent of sea salt emanating from him enveloped Wen Li, who felt as if she were about to drown in this purple sea.
"Uh……"
Wen Li subconsciously swallowed, lowered her eyes, and avoided Pei Yu's gaze.
Her gaze then fell on Pei Yu's lips.
The man's lips were full and fleshy; to put it bluntly, they looked very kissable.
The evil wolf in Wen Li's heart was stirring.
She could never lose out by kissing such a handsome man.
But the words that were on the tip of her tongue turned into a rhetorical question: "What? You want to kiss me?"
The two probed each other for a long time, but neither made any move.
Pei Yu didn't understand her hesitation.
Seeing her lower her eyes, he thought she was rejecting him, and his heart sank, a flash of displeasure passing through his mind.
He didn't want to force Wen Li, so he distanced himself from her again and teased, "I was just kidding."
Wen Li: "..."
It had a password; I almost fell for it.
Why am I so annoyed?
Wen Li forced a fake smile as well, "Haha, I knew it."
I still feel a little bit of a pity.
They were almost on the verge of kissing, tsk, what is she hesitating about!
There won't be such a good opportunity next time.
"Let's go back," Pei Yu said.
Wen Li nodded. "Mm."
The two walked one after the other towards home.
As she approached the door, Wen Li realized that the Flame Grass she had intended to give to Meng Yu was still on her person.
"I forgot to deliver something," Wen Li said awkwardly. "Why don't you wait here for me for a while, and I'll go make the trip myself."
Pei Yu shook her head, "I'll go with you."
The two then turned back and went to Meng Yu's house.
Upon arriving at the cave entrance, Wen Li hesitated to call out to Meng Yu after seeing the scene before her.
At this moment, Meng Yu was deeply in love with her beastly husband, the two of them kissing passionately at the cave entrance, their expressions completely intoxicated, and they did not notice the arrival of Wen Li and Pei Yu at all.
Wen Li stood frozen in place, her scalp tingling.
I don’t know whether I should bring it up or not. I feel that interrupting Meng Yu would be even more awkward.
She turned to look at Pei Yu, intending to suggest they come another time, since there was no rush...
Pei Yu calmly looked in Meng Yu's direction and said directly, "Meng Yu!"
The two people in front were startled and finally separated.
The man kissing Meng Yu was her ailing husband, who usually stayed at home to take care of her.
Her husband, a man of few words, was shy. When the two of them caught them in their intimate moment, he lowered his eyes in embarrassment and released Meng Yu.
Meng Yu was poised and graceful, and her expression suggested she was still somewhat unsatisfied. She got up and walked towards the two of them.
"Why are you here?" Meng Yu asked.
Wen Li pointed to the basket on her back, "I came to bring you something... but I think I'm bothering you."
"It's not a bother at all, oh dear." Meng Yu smiled, completely unconcerned. "What's this?"
She watched as Wen Li took out the Flame Grass, but she didn't recognize it.
"Flame Grass, this is for you to use during the winter." Wen Li briefly explained how to use and store the Flame Grass.
Meng Yu's eyes lit up. "This is a really good thing!"
Wen Li said, "I also sent a set to Sister Yu Mei's family. You can keep these for yourself."
Meng Yu: "Okay, thanks!"
After delivering the items, Wen Li bid farewell to Pei Yu and did not linger any longer.
After walking in silence, Wen Li and Pei Yu finally arrived home.
The image of Meng Yu kissing her beast husband kept flashing through Wen Li's mind, making it hard to ignore.
"What are you thinking about?" Pei Yu asked abruptly.
"What?" Wen Li responded, then denied it, saying, "I wasn't thinking about anything."
Pei Yu said meaningfully, "Your face is very red."
Wen Li subconsciously reached up and touched her face. "Is it?"
It was a normal temperature, and there was no mirror in front of her, so she couldn't tell whether her face was red or not.
Pei Yu asked, "Are you thinking about what just happened?"
The two had arrived at their doorstep.
Pushing open the door, the courtyard was empty.
This time, Wen Li didn't deny it, but vaguely said, "I guess so, I'm just a little curious."
Pei Yu glanced at her and said, "Oh."
Wen Li closed the wooden door after Pei Yu entered the courtyard.
But then it suddenly started to rain.
Large raindrops began to fall suddenly, just when the sky had been clear and sunny not long ago.
"Come this way," Wen Li gestured for Pei Yu to follow her.
The two entered Wen Li's cave one after the other.
Lifting the curtain, Wen Li lit the grass lamp, illuminating the cave.
This was Pei Yu's first time visiting Wen Li's cave, and he couldn't help but take a few more glances.
"This place is really big," he exclaimed.
Wen Li's cave is three times the size of Pei Yu's.
Of the caves where the beastmen lived, the smallest was the one shared by Pei Yu and Shen Yihe, and it was also the furthest from Wen Li's residence.
"Yeah."
Wen Li replied, then walked to the curtain, lifted it, and looked outside.
The rain was getting heavier and the sky was getting noticeably gloomy. Luckily, the two of them came back early today.
I wonder how things are going with Xin Yuan and Zhu Yan.
Wen Li lowered the curtain, sat down on the edge of the bed, and casually pointed to a spot for Pei Yu, "You can sit there."
Pei Yu sat down, resting his elbows on the stone table.
Her purple eyes continued to scan Wen Li's room.
Outside, the rain was pouring down, and the noisy sound of the rain filled Wen Li's ears, while inside, it was quiet.
Wen Li's gaze wandered for a moment before finally settling on Pei Yu.
"What are you looking at?" Wen Li asked.
Pei Yu's eyes kept darting around, looking here and there, never stopping.
Wen Li had no idea what was so interesting about the cave.
"Boring," Pei Yu said honestly.
There wasn't much to see inside the cave, but it was very well maintained and had a pleasant fragrance.
Pei Yu recognized the scent; it was Wen Li's fragrance, and it smelled wonderful.
Bored is indeed boring.
It was raining outside, so the two of them couldn't go out and could only stay in the cave waiting for the rain to stop.
There are no cell phones to pass the time in the Beast World Continent, so when you're bored, you can only sit and stare blankly.
Wen Li looked around, trying to find something to pass the time, but there was nothing there.
Pei Yu suddenly yawned.
Wen Li was infected by his yawn and also yawned.
I tend to feel sleepy on rainy days.
The two of them had been busy all day and were indeed exhausted, and drowsiness gradually crept in.
Wen Li couldn't help but yawn again, tears welling up in her eyes. She casually asked, "Do you want to sleep?"
The best way to kill time is to sleep.
The two can sleep for a while now. When they wake up, Zhu Yan and the others should be back around the same time.
"Ha~ Okay." Pei Yu yawned again. After saying that, he got up and walked towards Wen Li.
Wen Li also stood up. "Wait a moment, I'll get you a cushion."
"A mat?" Pei Yu glanced at the uneven ground and shook her head in refusal. "I don't want to sleep on the floor."
He pointed to Wen Li's bed as if it were his own business, "Can't I sleep here? It looks more comfortable."
Wen Li paused, thinking to herself that this guy was really not polite.
Yes, he was like that the day we first met.
"Okay, sure." Wen Li hesitated for a moment, but still agreed.
At worst, she can sleep on the floor.
"Thank you." Pei Yu smiled at her, then neatly lay down on her bed and closed her eyes.
Wen Li's stone bed was neither too big nor too small, and could easily accommodate two people. However, Pei Yu was tall and took up most of the space when he lay down.
Pei Yu closed his eyes and gave Wen Li a demonstration of falling asleep in a second.
His soft snoring rose and fell in waves, accompanied by the sound of raindrops hitting the ground.
Wen Li looked at Pei Yu on the bed, her face full of black lines.
"It's really the same as always," she muttered softly.
Wen Li had no choice but to resign herself to her fate and take out the mat she had originally prepared for Pei Yu and spread it on the ground.
She was sleepy too, so she lay down.
The uneven ground made Wen Li feel uncomfortable all over as soon as she lay down, so she immediately sat up.
"Can not be done."
Wen Li muttered to herself, rummaged through her cabinet, and took out some things to put on the table.
Lying down still didn't feel very comfortable.
Nothing is as comfortable as a bed.
Her stone bed had been specially modified, with some dry grass underneath so it wouldn't be too hard to sleep on.
Wen Li also added some dried herbs and vanilla, making the bed smell nice and good for your health.
After all that fuss, Wen Li was exhausted.
Seeing Pei Yu sleeping soundly on the bed, I felt inexplicably sad.
This is clearly her own bed; she should have known better than to give it to Pei Yu.
Wen Li put the things away again and slowly moved to the cave entrance.
The rain was still falling, and it was getting heavier and heavier.
Wen Li reluctantly returned to the table.
I lay lazily on the table, listening to the rain, and sleepiness came over me again.
Just as Wen Li was about to fall asleep, she suddenly heard a voice.
Come here.
She suddenly woke up and looked back to find that Pei Yu had woken up at some point and was looking at her with droopy eyelids.
The weariness between his brows and eyes had not yet subsided.
Pei Yu patted the spot next to him and said, "This spot is for you."
As if guided by some unseen force, Wen Li came to the bedside.
While she was struggling with her decision, Pei Yu fell asleep again.
Hearing the snoring, Wen Li felt much more at ease and lay down as well.
Strangely, the drowsiness that had been overwhelming suddenly vanished without a trace.
She lay in bed, unable to fall asleep.
Especially when she thought of Pei Yu lying next to her.
There's something strange about it that I can't quite put my finger on.
Afraid of waking the person next to her, Wen Li didn't dare to turn over and lay stiffly for a while.
Pei Yu, on the other hand, turned over and faced away from her.
Lying flat on her back was really uncomfortable, so Wen Li turned over and faced Pei Yu's back.
With my eyes closed, I could smell Pei Yu's unique sea salt scent wafting into my nose from time to time.
It smells wonderful, accompanied by a strong dose of male hormones, and it's incredibly intoxicating.
Wen Li suddenly felt very at ease, and her eyelids grew heavier and heavier.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, Pei Yu turned over again, and the two of them ended up facing each other.
Wen Li's eyelashes fluttered, and she opened her eyes to find Pei Yu's magnified face right in front of her.
Super visually stunning.
Wen Li also noticed that Pei Yu's eyelashes were very long and thick, like a small fan.
She couldn't sleep at all now, and secretly traced Pei Yu's features with her eyes.
From the eyebrows and eyes to the bridge of the nose, it all leads to those lips that look so inviting to kiss.
At this moment, those lips were slightly pursed, their color still as alluring as ever, making Wen Li swallow hard, curious about what it tasted like.
The image of Meng Yu kissing her beast husband flashed through her mind today, and Wen Li's heart grew increasingly itchy and restless.
It would be a shame if she didn't do something about such a great opportunity. Anyway, she likes it and is already asleep...
With a sudden thought, Wen Li carefully propped herself up on one side and leaned closer to Pei Yu.
Then, she gently pressed her lips to the other person's lips.
The moment their lips touched, a "ding" sounded, and Wen Li received a system notification in her mind.
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained your target's first kiss x1]
[The reward has been sent to your inventory. Please keep up the good work, host.]
Wen Li's eyes widened.
Wait, did she hear that right?
There's a reward!
A reward for every kiss!
Damn, why was she being so reserved before?! If she had known there would be a reward for kissing, she would have gone for it right away!!
Fortunately, it's not too late.
Wen Li felt secretly pleased, and the slight guilt she had felt at first was completely dispelled by the system's reward.
She couldn't wait to see what the reward was.
Wen Li stepped back, trying to pretend that nothing had happened.
But the next second, Pei Yu opened his eyes.
Those purple eyes stared silently at her, then posed a soul-searching question:
Why did you steal a kiss from me?
Wen Li's cheeks flushed instantly.
The most embarrassing thing is getting caught stealing a kiss.
She blinked hard and forced herself to say, "You're so beautiful, I couldn't resist."
That's true; she couldn't resist the temptation of beauty.
She's useless!
Pei Yu squinted and suddenly leaned closer, his nose almost touching Wen Li's.
"You always take advantage of me," Pei Yu said in a low voice, frowning.
Wen Li felt a pang of guilt.
Before she could argue, Pei Yu said again, "That won't do."
"I was wrong, what do you want?" Wen Li bit her lower lip, her heart pounding wildly in her chest.
His gaze lingered on her lips, wandering casually, yet Wen Li felt as if she had been touched by something.
"So be it."
This time, it was Pei Yu's turn to take the initiative.
Wen Li closed her eyes.
It felt soft, like jelly.
Pei Yu's movements were clumsy.
Wen Li clung to his shoulders and whispered, "...Like this."
After just a brief touch, Wen Li's body went limp like water.
She gently pushed Pei Yu away, trying to catch her breath, but was immediately entangled with him.
The man's eyes were shimmering with moisture, shrouded in a thin mist, and he seemed lost in them.
Perhaps because of their marriage contract, the two of them would unconsciously want to get closer to each other once they had intimate contact.
Pei Yu reached out and easily pulled Wen Li into his arms, his large hand gripping her slender waist.
"Um... Pei..."
Wen Li gradually sensed that something was becoming unusual.
