Quick Transmigration and Childbirth: The Target is Not Human

Chapter 171 Did the werewolf eat his princess?

A pair of lovers who attack each other are like two venomous snakes tearing at each other, knowing full well that they will hurt themselves but unable to stop.

Xia Yangyang was confined to the room next to Hati's.

The hotel wasn't very soundproof. She lay in bed trying to sleep, but Hati's muffled groans of suppressed pain always managed to penetrate her.

Covering your ears or burying your head in the blankets won't help.

Unable to fall asleep, I tossed and turned, so I ended up watching dramas and chatting with the system.

The system munched on popcorn, the light from the movie screen reflecting on the faces of both men, who were staring intently at the screen.

System: [Today was quite thrilling.]

Xia Yangyang stared intently: [Not bad, a steady performance.]

System: [Speaking of which, what exactly did that old lady you met on the street say to you?]

Xia Yangyang: [You actually believe what she said?]

System: [It's hard to say. Better safe than sorry. If there's no harm in trying, it won't hurt.]

Xia Yangyang sighed: [It's no use, we can't try, we can't try now...]

The system's head popped up with a big question mark: [Stop keeping me in suspense, okay?]

Xia Yangyang: [She said the werewolf curse arose from love and hate, and could also be resolved through love and hate. If I transfer my Yin energy to Hati, it can alleviate the backlash from both curses.]

System: [Crossing the Yin Yuan? What does that mean?]

Xia Yangyang rolled her eyes: [...It just means sleeping, going to bed, and having sex.]

The system responded with an "Oh," its age-old interface remaining completely unfazed: "[That won't work.]"

Xia Yangyang replied calmly, "[Hmm.]"

One person, one system, and continued watching the show.

After observing for a while, the system came up with an idea: [We could push things to the limit; the day he came of age is actually a very difficult boundary to define.]

Xia Yangyang nodded: [Mm.]

They continued watching the show together in perfect harmony.

The sound of the soap opera drowned out the groans from next door, and Xia Yangyang finally drifted off to sleep around one or two in the morning.

It was very hot and humid tonight, and she was sweating profusely from the heat.

She felt as if she were trapped in a giant furnace, and no matter how she scratched and clawed, she couldn't escape. Her waist was tightly bound, and her legs were pressed down by heavy objects, making it difficult for her to even breathe.

Suddenly, she woke up with a start.

What surprised her even more was the firm, burning chest before her, the sweat-soaked fabric, the arms tightly gripping her back, and the pair of helpless, pitiful, round, golden beast eyes bathed in the inky moonlight.

The other party was caught red-handed, but showed no shame or intention to let go.

"Sister..." His voice sounded incredibly endearing.

Xia Yangyang quickly sifted through a thousand ways to handle this situation, but found that none of them were suitable for this shameless guy.

She choked on her words for a moment, then reacted quickly, grabbing his face as it was about to touch hers: "You...you have no shame?!"

Hati's cheeks were covered with a layer of snow-white down.

The two wolf ears were pressed low and backward.

Hati: "I feel so awful, my heart is beating over 200..."

Xia Yangyang frowned. Animals' heartbeats are naturally faster than humans', right?

She used both hands and feet simultaneously, resisting fiercely as she tried to separate the two: "I've already made myself perfectly clear, if you continue to use this method—"

"I'm scared..."

Xia Yangyang froze, then forced herself to ask, "How...did you usually spend the full moon nights?"

"I will always carry a sachet with a soothing scent that smells like my mother."

"What about the sachet?"

"I lost you the day we jumped off the cliff together." Hati said, his voice becoming noticeably hoarse, sounding as if he was about to cry.

Is a heart rate of 200 beats per minute dangerous?

"The symptoms usually subside after midnight, but tonight after arguing with my sister, it feels like it's broken." Hati grabbed her wrist and carefully moved it to his chest.

He asked, "Did your sister feel it?"

"What?"

"This is not an ordinary heartbeat; it is the heartbeat of pain, grief, and anxiety."

"You're here to apologize?"

"No," Hati replied softly.

"So you're just trying to cheat us out here??"

Hati was silent for a moment, then tightened his arms around her: "I'm not being unreasonable, my heart really hurts, I want you to hold me, I can't wait a moment longer."

"...Are you God? Your people curse me and are willing to sacrifice their lives to appease the heavens, yet I'm expected to set aside past grievances and take care of you when you're in pain?"

"..."

"What am I to you? Don't you have any shame?"

Hati lowered his eyes, his long, curled eyelashes concealing the emotions he dared not express. He whispered, "Didn't you say you'd be with me on every full moon night from now on?"

Xia Yangyang didn't hear what he was muttering.

Hattie released his grip on her body and sat up in bed: "You have two blankets, can't I have one?"

"What are you doing?" Xia Yangyang was completely confused.

"Mine tore apart when it reverted to its original form."

Xia Yangyang's expression was a little confused. She nodded and watched as he silently carried the blanket to the door. He then turned back and glared at her with extreme resentment.

He slammed the door shut and left.

The system spoke up at the opportune moment: [Uh... Master, I don't think he's faking it. His health has dropped to 69, which is indeed a point where a werewolf needs to call for help.]

Xia Yangyang: [Why didn't you say so sooner?]

System: [I didn't expect you to actually kick him out?]

The door to the next room wasn't locked, and in the moonlight, it creaked open slightly from the outside.

The room was a complete mess; everything that could be smashed was broken, and there were wood chips and porcelain shards everywhere on the floor. The only thing that was still presentable was the bed, where Hati was curled up in a ball with his back to the door, wrapped in a blanket.

This is really frustrating.

That tall, hideous fellow was actually quite small when he curled up.

Hati's body temperature is abnormally high.

Almost as soon as you get close to him, you can feel the terrifying temperature.

"Why is it so hot?" she asked, sitting on the edge of the bed and gently pressing her forehead against his.

Her forehead was cool, and it felt very comfortable to press against it.

For a brief moment when their foreheads touched, their bodies, wrapped in blankets, stiffened horribly.

The delicate fragrance of orchids wafted through the air.

At this moment, it felt as if time and space had intersected, and they had returned to the time when they first met.

She also frowned slightly, pressing her forehead against his to check his temperature.

"Did I eat something wrong?" She pursed her lips, then used the back of her hand to check the temperature of his cheeks, muttering to herself as if she was also somewhat at a loss.

Memories, like an impenetrable mountain, finally shattered his carefully crafted facade of nonchalance.

After sitting for a while, Xia Yangyang decided to get up and give him some fever-reducing medicine.

The next second, she was pulled into a tight embrace. Hati hugged her tightly from behind, resting his chin on her neck. Just as Xia Yangyang was about to break free, his soft pleading whispered in her ear, "Don't go."

Xia Yangyang remained frozen in place.

"I'm sorry, sister. Everything I said before was nonsense. I didn't just want to break the curse." Hati's nose rubbed against her neck repeatedly, with a cautious probing and a strong plea, but when he felt her stiffness, he slightly loosened his embrace.

He said sullenly, "I fell in love with you at first sight. I love everything about you, your gentle yet strong nature, your courage and righteousness. It was my fault that we couldn't have a clean start, but I don't regret everything I did to make you fall in love with me. I really want to break the curse because it is the long-cherished wish of my people for nearly a thousand years. I am their only hope, and I cannot abandon them."

"..."

"I said so many things against my conscience today because I so admire your frankness and sincerity, but at the same time, they made me so ashamed. I've never been in this situation before, I was flustered and said things I didn't mean..." He pressed his forehead against her shoulder again, pleading, "I'm sorry, sister, I'm sorry, please don't be angry with me anymore, please give me another chance, okay?"

His soft voice and familiar coquettishness were exactly what she loved and couldn't resist.

The human princess's body seemed like a block of ice that refused to melt, but her trembling long eyelashes betrayed the traces of her soft heart.

Hati, receiving no response, pleaded even more, nuzzling her cheek against hers, hoping to evoke some memory: "Forgive me, sister, sister, sister, forgive me, please, I beg you, I'm begging for forgiveness."

The human princess tilted her head slightly, avoiding his overly hot breath, her voice sounding even colder: "So this is your new trick?"

The moment she realized she was caught in a huge lie, she could no longer believe him. He was too good at being charming and manipulating people's hearts. Any gesture that made her feel loved was like a knife stabbing her in the dark.

Unable to discern the truth, she could only raise the sharp thorns all over her body to protect herself.

Hati shook his head urgently and said, "No, this time it wasn't any trick. This time it was genuine. I really know I was wrong."

The human princess didn't rush to break free from his grip on her waist. She took a deep breath and said, "Fine, I'll ask you, are you still going to take me to the Northern Region?"

A flicker of panic crossed Hati's eyes, quickly concealed by his lowered eyelids. He instinctively tightened his arms around Hati: "Going to the Northern Region is just a pretext. Those elders have a magic stone that can detect love. If I don't take you to get tested, they won't let you go. I'll switch the magic stone, and they won't be able to detect anything. I won't really let you get hurt."

"You won't let me get hurt?" the human princess muttered to herself, a mocking smile playing on her lips. "What about your curse that will kill you at eighteen?"

Hati's jaw tightened, and his voice was low and honest: "When I decided to leave the Northern Region, I never thought I would live past eighteen."

"Ha, the only pure-blooded werewolf, such a noble and rare status. Even if you don't rip out my heart to eat, do you think your subordinates, your elders, your parents would just stand by and watch you die? Wouldn't they kill me instead?"

"I will find other ways to prolong life. As long as I am here, they won't—"

"Enough, Hati." The human princess interrupted him, her voice not loud, but with a resolute determination. "I've had enough of your deception. You've been searching for a solution for eighteen years, do you think God will let you succeed in one fell swoop just because you only have three months left to live? Going to the Northern Region is clearly a dead end for me."

Hati's ears drooped, and his voice was as soft as a bubble about to dissipate: "I didn't lie to you..."

He looked sorrowful and desperate, his light dimmed, as if covered with a layer of dust.

Her heart pounded fiercely against her back, sending shivers down her spine.

Xia Yangyang deflated like a punctured balloon; even with her extensive experience in seduction, she couldn't discern the truth in those words.

She turned her face away: "You...don't say anything more. It's best to be on guard when communicating with you."

Hati lay on her back, kissed the back of her snow-white neck, and nodded obediently: "Okay."
