Douluo Dalu, a junior student, started his journey after being adopted by Bibi Dong.

He stared at her full, round Adam's apple, which bobbed slightly.

I really want to slap it, to see the rippling blue waves, and to feel the soft flesh trembling in my palm.

Liya watched as Yue Qingge's gaze froze, then followed his gaze and saw Hu Liena fishing in that seductive pose.

Her lips curled down slightly, revealing a hint of dissatisfaction.

She strolled over and sat down beside Yue Qingge, her small hand quietly grasping his, her fingers slowly interlacing between his, gently holding his.

Chapter 88 We'll Play Our Game

"Stop looking," she said softly and gently, "you're distracting Nana from fishing."

Yue Qingge then withdrew her gaze, coughed lightly, and covered up her momentary loss of composure.

He grabbed a piece of wood from the side and quickly built a campfire.

The wood crackled and sparks flew, while orange flames licked the air, bringing a sense of warmth.

Looking at Hu Liena's reflection in the lake, he suddenly thought of Liya's true form.

He turned his head curiously, his gaze landing on Liya's face, and asked softly, "Liya, do you eat fish?"

"Eat," Liya answered, tilting her head, her gaze softening even more.

"Food is scarce in the depths of the icy sea, so I naturally won't be picky about food."

As she said this, her eyes held a hint of reminiscence mixed with a touch of joy.

"That's fine then." As soon as Yue Qingge finished speaking, Hu Liena walked barefoot out of the river.

She held three fish in her hand, their tails swaying gently in her grasp, splashing tiny droplets of water.

She walked towards them step by step, her bare feet leaving a trail of wet footprints on the pebbles of the riverbank.

Water droplets slid down her fair calves, shimmering in the sunlight.

She tossed the fish to Yue Qingge, raised her chin, and with a "praise me" expression, her eyes crinkled with smugness.

"Hey, junior brother, aren't I amazing?"

Yue Qingge caught the fish, smiled and nodded: "Amazing, amazing."

However, she happened to see that Liya's hand was still clasped between Yue Qingge's fingers, the two of them intertwined, intimately close.

Her gaze lingered on the clasped hands for a moment, her eyes flickered slightly, and then she subtly interrupted Yue Qingge, plopping down on the other side.

As soon as she sat down, her wet, soft hands reached out and grabbed Yue Qingge.

Yue Qingge glanced at the two of them speechlessly. On his left was Liya, and on his right was Hu Liena, both of whom were staring at him.

"How am I supposed to do the barbecue with you two like this?" He sighed helplessly.

Two pairs of large eyes clashed in the shadows for a moment, their gazes colliding in the air and sparking a string of invisible fire.

Immediately, the two let go of each other's hands.

Only then was Yue Qingge able to put the meat skewers on the fire to grill.

He also purified and cleaned the three fish directly with ice elements.

A thin layer of frost covered the fish; with a gentle shake, the frost shattered, washing away all the impurities along with it.

All that was left was clean fish meat.

They were grilled together over a campfire, and the fish gradually changed color under the licking of the flames, from transparent to milky white, and from milky white to golden yellow.

The grease melted as it burned and dripped down, making a series of sizzling sounds.

The spices release a rich aroma at high temperatures, which, mixed with the fresh scent of fish, fills the air and makes one's mouth water.

I don't know how it tastes, but it looks very appetizing.

Hu Liena squatted to the side, poked the meat skewers with her finger, and as soon as her fingertip touched the scalding hot surface, she quickly withdrew her hand as if afraid of getting burned. Her appearance was both cute and charming.

"Junior brother's cooking looks pretty good." Her eyes sparkled with anticipation.

Upon hearing this, Yue Qingge smiled and said with a slight upturn of her lips, "I've made this for my mother before, and I'm quite fond of it myself, so I naturally became skilled at it."

"Senior sister, here you go."

Yue Qingge gave Hu Liena a skewer of grilled meat first, then turned around and handed one to Liya.

The two should naturally be balanced.

Hu Liena took the skewer of meat, took a bite, and the oil burst in her mouth, while the spiciness of the spices and the freshness of the meat danced together on her tongue.

Her eyes lit up instantly, and her cheeks puffed out, like...

A greedy little hamster.

Liya held the skewer to her lips and took a small bite.

Oil glistened on her full, red lips, making them look like they were coated with a layer of clear lip gloss.

She carefully extended her tongue, her delicate tongue gently sweeping across her lips, rolling the oil and spices from her lips into her mouth.

The movements were slow and gentle, as if savoring some exquisite delicacy, or as if deliberately teasing.

After swallowing her food, Liya looked up and found Yue Qingge staring straight at her.

Her eyes darted around, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, revealing a sly smile.

"What's wrong, Qingge? Why are you staring at me like that?" Her voice was soft and sweet, with a hint of mischievous knowingness in her tone. "Oh... I see..."

Then, in the instant Hu Liena turned around, Liya leaned close to Yue Qingge's face and gently pressed her cheek against it.

With a "pop" sound.

Crisp, loud, ambiguous.

The commotion made Hu Liena turn her head instantly and look at the two of them with curiosity.

Her gaze swept back and forth between the two of them, like a wary little fox.

Perhaps Liya was used to it; she remained calm, not even blinking, as if the "pop" from just now had never happened.

Hu Liena asked the two men with suspicion, her brows slightly furrowed.

She pursed her lips, her red lips slightly parted.

Did you hear anything just now? Could it be that someone is coming?

Liya smiled and shook her head upon hearing this. Her smile was natural, yet it always gave the impression that she was hiding some unspeakable secret.

Hu Liena always felt that her smile was strange, as if she was hiding something.

Her gaze darted back and forth between Liya and Yue Qingge, trying to see through them.

However, she was soon captivated by Yue Qingge's meat skewers.

She held the meat skewers and ate them in big bites, her cheeks bulging and her mouth glistening with oil. Although her eating style was bold, it had a unique charm.

Seeing this, Liya started to make trouble again.

Her fingers silently moved to Yue Qingge's lower abdomen, gently caressing it with her fingertips.

The soft touch carries a slight tingling sensation, like ants crawling on the skin, or like feathers brushing against the heart.

The singer paused in her grilling motion, her back slightly tensing.

He glanced at Liya discreetly, only to receive a half-smile in return.

There was a hint of smugness and a touch of seduction in his eyes.

How did that adorable and innocent little mermaid become so alluring?

Yue Qingge didn't know. Perhaps he orchestrated it all himself.

Trained?

Liya's fingers suddenly disappeared.

When she sensed it again, she had already pulled down Yue Qingge's pants.

The farm tools, which had been waiting impatiently, burst out of their cage and landed directly in Liya's hands, like a wild beast that had just awakened.

As Liya grasped it, she also secretly glanced at Hu Liena.

Hu Liena was still engrossed in eating her meat and was completely unaware of what was happening over there.

Liya's lips curled up slightly, then she transmitted her voice to Yue Qingge in a sweet tone:

"Qingge, whatever you do, don't let your senior sister find out."

Even though she had grown quite used to the intense heat, it still made her fingers tremble slightly.

She was wearing the outer layer of the farm tool, her fingers suddenly dropping to the bottom, and then the soft pad of her thumb just rubbed against the bare, extremely exposed crown.

That spot was already bright red, filled with Yue Qingge's blood and energy, every vein throbbing, like a furious blood dragon.

With just a gentle touch, Yue Qingge felt a tingling sensation explode in her cerebral cortex.

Chapter 89 Explanation

His back was straight, and a fine layer of sweat beaded on his forehead, but he continued grilling the meat without changing his expression, his hands moving as steady as a rock, as if nothing had happened.

He took advantage of the blind spot provided by the campfire to avoid Hu Liena's initial reconnaissance.

The flickering firelight cast intermittent light on his face, his expression as calm as a still pond, yet his body trembled slightly.

Yue Qingge dared not let her be idle. As soon as she finished a skewer, he immediately handed her a new batch of meat skewers, his actions very attentive.

Seeing how kind Yue Qingge was to her, Hu Liena felt secretly pleased.

The junior brother is so good to his senior sister!

However, she still asked him, her voice tinged with concern:

"Qingge, don't tire yourself out, you eat too."

As soon as she finished speaking, she stuffed a freshly made skewer of meat into her mouth, her smile never fading, her eyes crinkling with joy.

Liya looked up at her sister, a faint smile playing on her lips.

Her hands moved faster unconsciously, and she even made a soft, sweet sound.

"Qingge~ I want one too!"

In an instant, all eyes were on him.

Hu Liena looked at Liya, whose one hand was down below, seemingly doing something, while the other hand was empty, holding nothing.

She wondered to herself: Could it be that her junior brother gave all the meat skewers to her?

She looked down at the empty skewer in her hand, then at Liya's empty hand, and a pang of guilt welled up inside her.

Then she shared a few skewers with Liya, handing them over with a hint of apology: "Sister Liya, here you go."

Liya took it and began to savor it gracefully. She took small bites, her red lips lightly pursing over the skewer.

But her other hand never stopped; it was completely soaked with Yue Qingge's pre-drying liquid, and her palm was wet.

His fingers moved across the scorching hot farm tool, at a speed that was now a notch faster than before.

The five fingers are like butterflies foraging among the flowers, one hovering around the mysterious food outlet, waiting for the nectar to arrive.

Her fingertips deftly traced the coronal ridge, again and again, constantly exploring, stimulating, and waiting.

Her movements became faster and faster, like playing a silent melody, each note landing on Yue Qingge's most sensitive nerves.

However, Hu Liena is not a doll.

She had already sensed something was wrong with their actions.

She was observing out of the corner of her eye.

The junior brother's expression was a bit too stiff, and his breathing rate was off; he was sitting still, though.

She watched as the two seemed to be playing something and isolating her, and a strange, indescribable emotion welled up inside her, like something was stuck in her chest, making her feel suffocated.

She pretended not to notice and continued eating her kebab. After swallowing the kebab in her hand, she quietly reached out.

Her gaze passed over the firelight and over Yue Qingge's arm.

Then, she saw something she would never forget.

The menacing farm tool throbbed slightly in Liya's hand, and thick white breath gushed out from its tip, spraying her face.
