What does it mean that they all lived with lifelong regrets?

"!"

Xie Jiexue's hand moved and instantly bounced back.

The thought of saying something vanished instantly.

What is Lin Wuhua doing?

Facing Xie Jiexue's gaze, which was both ashamed and indignant, Lin Wuhua showed no remorse whatsoever.

He even turned the tables on us.

"You touched my face first."

Xie Jiexue clenched his fists: "You can touch mine, but I can't touch yours? How can there be such an unfair thing in the world?"

Lin Wuhua: "Huh?"

He moved his hand, about to straighten up and explain to Xie Jiexue.

But this time Lin Wuhua was wrong.

At this moment, he was lying in Xie Jiexue's arms, his head and shoulders resting on Xie Jiexue's thighs and lower abdomen.

Anyone who is often hugged by a girl knows that while this position is the most comfortable and safest, it is also the most controlling.

The instant his shoulder moved, Xie Jiexue's hand pressed down.

"It's better to lie down," she said, her hand naturally moving down to rest on Lin Wuhua's neck. "I didn't tell you to leave."

"You can't leave."

The hand tightened its grip, even starting to tease Lin Wuhua's chin: "Am I not allowed to touch your face?"

Lin Wuhua: "..."

This is a very alluring pose, but why is it so funny?

Lin Wuhua then retorted: "Your own hands are constantly giving orders, so you can't blame me."

As he spoke, he pointed to his mouth.

Xie Jiexue froze for a moment.

Lin Wuhua's voice became even more assertive.

"You've been touching my face for about two minutes, and then you started touching my... "

He paused, but still didn't specify the exact location: "Anyway, what you're doing is inappropriate, and I'm at a disadvantage."

"Is that enough? Let me go?" he asked again, indicating that Xie Jiexue should let him go.

Xie Jiexue stared at Lin Wuhua in silence.

She realized that Lin Wuhua seemed genuinely shy.

She wondered why she had pulled her hand back. There was nothing wrong with letting Lin Wuhua do that.

Once the thought entered her mind, certain ideas could no longer be contained.

Her gaze traced Lin Wuhua's eyebrows, cheeks, and lips, imagining the sensation of her hands touching them.

"If only it could really..."

Thinking this, Xie Jiexue pulled her hand away and subconsciously protected her chest.

That's utterly shameless! Is Xie Jiexue really such a promiscuous person?

Thinking this, she looked at Lin Wuhua with a hint of disdain.

How wicked of a man to tempt her like that!

Lin Wuhua couldn't stand that kind of look, so she retorted: "So you're wrong, it's your fault for not being able to control yourself, not mine—"

Xie Jiexue took a deep breath.

A strange feeling welled up inside her.

Since you, Lin Wuhua, are so reckless, don't blame me, Xie Jiexue, for being ruthless.

Xie Jiexue took a deep breath.

Instead of letting go, she pressed her hand back down.

"I don't believe you, you're lying to me."

Those eyes held a smile, but also a deep-seated embarrassment and annoyance: "Unless you let me try again."

......

Xie Jiexue lowered her eyes and stared at Lin Wuhua.

Lin Wuhua rested his head on her thighs and lower abdomen, adjusting his body uneasily.

He moved it a few more times and said, "It's done."

Xie Jiexue: "Mm."

In Lin Wuhua's eyes, Xie Jiexue raised her hand and gently placed it on his face.

Previously, no matter how Lin Wuhua and Xie Jiexue argued, she just didn't believe that she had touched Lin Wuhua's lips.

Lin Wuhua originally wanted to let it go, but Xie Jiexue didn't believe it at all and instead felt that she had been bitten and lost out.

So she insisted on trying again, otherwise she wouldn't let Lin Wuhua leave.

Under such pressure, Lin Wuhua had no choice but to agree.

Xie Jiexue gently rubbed his hands together and then breathed on his palms.

Lin Wuhua: "..."

He wanted to say something, but he couldn't get the words out.

He hadn't noticed it when they were playing around, but now he realized how ambiguous it was.

A counterintuitive, prepared ambiguity is much more shy than an unprepared one.

Xie Jiexue's ears turned red.

She gently rubbed her hands together, placed them on Lin Wuhua's face, and gazed at him.

Lin Wuhua's face was reflected in Xie Jiexue's eyes.

Xie Jiexue's face was reflected in Lin Wuhua's eyes.

The two gazed into each other's eyes, and into their own reflections in each other's eyes.

First the forehead, then the chin, and finally the cheeks; first a touch, then one hand, then both hands.

Finally, Xie Jiexue reached out with both hands, as if he were kneading his own cat.

As she was being kneaded like this, Lin Wuhua's face gradually began to turn rosy.

He tried to speak: "Feed—"

"Shh," Xie Jiexue pressed her hand to his lips.

"Don't disturb me—"

Lin Wuhua suddenly opened her mouth and bit her fingertip.

"You touched it," he said, pressing down on her hand, "so you lost."

"Let me go!"

.......

Under Lin Wuhua's resolute resistance, Xie Jiexue had no choice but to release him.

Of course, there is indeed a reason why she was in the wrong.

So she wisely didn't argue with Lin Wuhua, and instead nestled into his arms.

Feeling Lin Wuhua playing with her long hair, Xie Jiexue rubbed her cheek and squinted her eyes.

"There's no difference between the hair and the face," she said.

"Yes, yes, yes." Lin Wuhua wrapped her hair around her head. "You have hair, I don't. It's my fault."

Xie Jiexue smiled softly.

Lin Wuhua ultimately gave in to her.

Suddenly, the sword beside Lin Wuhua rose into the air and cut off several soft tree branches.

"I've got nothing better to do," Lin Wuhua said. "Here's a souvenir for you."

The rustling of branches began.

Through her limited field of vision, Xie Jiexue saw that Lin Wuhua was intertwining the soft branches together.

"A wreath," Lin Wuhua said, still holding a wreath in her mouth, "a souvenir for you, not an apology."

"I did nothing wrong."

Even at this point, he was still emphasizing it.

Xie Jiexue: "Yes."

She suddenly felt a little glad that she hadn't talked to Lin Wuhua about that matter.

Otherwise, given Lin Wuhua's personality, she would likely argue with her about who was on top and who was on the bottom for a long time.

Wait, why am I down there?

Isn't this a loss for me?

Xie Jiexue thought this, and then her cheeks instantly turned redder than peach blossoms.

Fortunately, Lin Wuhua's attention was completely focused on the peach blossoms, and he thought her face was flushed by the peach blossoms.

"Alright." He smiled, patted Xie Jiexue on the shoulder, and gestured for her to stand up.

The wreath was placed on Xie Jiexue's face.

"The peach tree is young and tender, its blossoms are bright and beautiful." Lin Wuhua praised, "You are worthy of me, and you are worthy of you."

Xie Jiexue cupped her face in her hands, looked at Lin Wuhua, and her eyes softened.

"The Splendor of Nature—"

The communication token vibrated violently.

"Wuhua, Jiexue, demons are attacking!" a panicked voice cried out. "—Quickly return to the city, we need reinforcements."
