“Ouch, it hurts so much.”
Xing Lian’s brow furrowed as she suddenly fell back to the ground, still a bit confused about the situation.
‘What happened to me? Why does my body hurt so much?’
She rubbed her head with her fingers while thinking, and countless memories flooded into her mind.
A cold night, heavy snow, being held by Yue Li, and then falling asleep.
What happened after she fell asleep?
Hmm, she remembered.
Feeling colder and colder, she had pressed herself against a heat source, and then…
“And then I wasn’t cold anymore,” Xing Lian murmured to herself.
As for why she wasn’t cold, having had many experiences, she knew very well in her heart.
Tears immediately began to flow.
‘Bastard, what a complete bastard!’
She knew that person had bad intentions.
After all her guarding, the thing she feared most had still happened.
Xing Lian was very scared.
She wasn’t born a girl, so she didn’t care about her virginity itself; she was afraid of Fei finding out.
‘If Fei knows I was bullied, what if she has a problem with me? I like her so much. If she despises me, I’ll definitely die of sadness.’
Xing Lian became more and more uneasy as she thought, and her tears flowed like a river.
Yue Li returned from hunting to see this exact scene.
“Lian’er,” she called out softly.
Her face looked a bit troubled, and she felt bad in her heart too.
When she had bullied her last night, she knew there would be trouble today.
The girl would definitely make a scene.
But when it actually happened, she still felt very uncomfortable.
‘Wasn’t it just some intimacy? She was clearly very happy last night, so why has she turned against me today? Is it okay if it’s that girl Fei, but not me?’
Yue Li’s heart was full of resentment, but she was still rational enough to know that now was not the time to argue.
She walked lightly to Xing Lian’s side, sat down, pulled her into her arms, and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
“Lian’er, don’t cry. I’m sorry, it’s all my fault.”
“Of course it’s all your fault!”
Xing Lian was in the heat of her anger.
When Yue Li suddenly approached and she heard that voice, her temper flared up immediately.
‘Eh…’ Yue Li was momentarily stunned.
‘The little thing had always been soft and weak; how could she change so suddenly?’
This clawing and biting appearance was like a tiny kitten that had been provoked.
“It’s all your fault! You clearly said you would just hold me, but then you started bullying me while hugging. You’re untrustworthy, treacherous, and dishonest! You’re just a despicable person; I really misjudged you.”
Xing Lian’s small mouth was like a machine gun, words of hurt shooting out one after another.
Although Yue Li liked the little thing, she was also made angry by her words.
She admitted she had bad intentions and had thought about forcing her, but she hadn’t even done it yet, planning to use gentler methods.
She had done something wrong last night, but did the girl have no fault at all?
“Bullying you was my fault, but it’s not all on me. You kept pouncing on me, rubbing and touching, I — “
“What do you mean by that? Are you trying to say I seduced you?” Xing Lian interrupted before Yue Li could finish.
“I… this…”
“What ‘this’ and ‘that’? You’re a beast, a pervert, I… wuwuwu…”
Xing Lian spoke more and more sadly, her tears flowing non-stop.
She actually started crying even harder.
Yue Li’s expression was very grim, and she felt quite angry.
The little thing was too much, even daring to scold her!
She admitted to being a beast — she was one to begin with — but a pervert…
‘Where am I perverted? If I were really perverted, I would have eaten her up on the first day I took her. How could I have waited until now?’
“Hmph, say whatever you want.”
Yue Li had a bad temper.
If it were any other woman who dared to make such a scene with her, she would have been hung up and whipped long ago.
However, the little thing’s body was too weak, and plus she really liked her.
Thinking that she herself was more at fault, she could only hold in her anger and endure.
Yue Li went to the fire to make breakfast and stopped talking to Xing Lian.
With no one paying attention to her, Xing Lian soon stopped crying.
Her reason returned, and she thought about what to do now.
Being bullied was already a settled matter.
No matter how much she cried, she couldn’t change it, and continuing to cry was just a waste of energy.
Besides, she used to be a boy; what did it look like to keep crying like this?
‘Come to think of it, this thing called chastity was only valued in my past life. This world only has girls, and the social atmosphere is very open. Fei loves me so much; she definitely won’t abandon me.’
After comforting herself, Xing Lian’s mood improved a lot.
“Do you want to eat?” Yue Li asked coldly, turning her face after finishing breakfast.
“I want to eat.”
Xing Lian liked to eat.
Even if she was angry, she still nodded and said yes.
Yue Li tore off a rabbit leg and handed it to her, then gave her two snow fruits.
Xing Lian opened her mouth, revealing two small tiger teeth, and bit down hard on the rabbit leg as if she were tearing into a certain someone.
***
After breakfast, the two continued their journey.
It had snowed all night, and the snow was very thick, 0.5 meters deep.
An ordinary person couldn’t walk at all.
But Yue Li was no ordinary person.
A breeze surrounded her body, and with a light leap, she could jump several meters, landing on the snow without leaving a trace.
Xing Lian’s eyes couldn’t see, so she didn’t notice this miraculous scene.
But even if she could see, she wouldn’t be in the mood to look.
In the morning, things were fine.
Although her body was weak, she was in good spirits.
But when afternoon came, she suddenly felt dizzy, and her strength faded.
“A-choo!”
She couldn’t help but sneeze, falling softly onto Yue Li’s back.
“Lian’er, what’s wrong?” Yue Li asked curiously.
No response.
Yue Li turned her head and suddenly became anxious.
The little thing’s cheeks were flushed red, and her eyes were tightly closed; she had actually fainted.
She immediately changed into human form, held Xing Lian in her arms, and pressed her forehead against the girl’s.
‘So hot! It seemed she had a fever.’
Yue Li had never been sick and didn’t understand medicine, so it was hard to make an accurate judgment.
‘What should I do? What should I do now?’
Regardless of whether it was a sickness or not, she had to treat it quickly.
But she didn’t know how to treat it, so she had to seek help from others.
Yue Li changed back to her original form.
No longer caring about her stamina, she harnessed the gale and traveled quickly through the high mountains and ridges.
Her luck was good.
After 30 minutes, crossing a mountain top, she faintly saw a small town.
Yue Li stopped outside the town, changed into human form, and walked into the town carrying Xing Lian.
The town was very prosperous; people came and went on the streets, and many were selling things at stalls.
Yue Li didn’t care about these people and walked toward the center of the town.
Their appearance attracted many people’s attention; Xing Lian’s looks were truly too outstanding, making her unforgettable at first sight.
Someone tried to approach them, but Yue Li coldly snorted and released her pressure.
The person trembled with fear and didn’t dare move again.
Yue Li carried Xing Lian into a medical clinic.
When the physician saw Xing Lian, she looked amazed.
Yue Li snorted coldly.
The physician snapped out of it, performed a careful examination, and prescribed some medicine.
Yue Li took the medicine and found an inn in the town to stay at.
After brewing the medicine and giving it to Xing Lian, the illness was soon brought under control.
