Chapter 100: Chapter 100 The Secret Conversation Was Indeed Overheard
"I propose that those who have already drawn lots be excluded from drawing again until the next round." Su Ye, who had the worst luck, immediately agreed.
"I agree," Li also said.
Although Shi Xie seems to be defending them on the surface, he’s actually seeking benefits for himself.
But there’s one point he wasn’t wrong about.
There are only seven slots, and those who have already drawn should be excluded.
Choosing between a one in seven chance and a one in six chance, they understand which probability is higher.
"I refuse." Mo Jiao protested.
"I agree." Yu Yunxiao quickly supported.
Whether it was for scheduling or drawing lots, Yu Yunxiao was never first, and he was getting anxious.
Among the seven men, only Mo Jiao protested and refused.
The minority follows the majority, and Xiao Jinsheng, who was balancing everything, certainly wouldn’t help Mo Jiao.
She took out a bunch of paper slips and let the remaining six men draw lots again.
Mo Jiao watched Xiao Jinsheng with a calm gaze, his purple eyes filled with resentment.
Xiao Jinsheng quickly averted his gaze and signaled the others to draw lots.
This time, Su Ye grabbed first, but drew the number six.
Su Ye: "...6"
He regretted acting so quickly.
Yu Yunxiao looked at the number 3 in his hand, his cat ears drooping with disappointment.
"You’re acting like without me, the two of you would have gotten it," Mo Jiao mocked as he looked at the recently most vocal opponents, Su Ye and Yu Yunxiao.
"Who is it this time?" Huaiqing put down his number 2.
Shi Xie, disappointed, put back his number 5.
Li didn’t speak, indicating it wasn’t him who drew number 1.
If it were him, he would have already tossed aside the slip and embraced Xiao Jinsheng.
Que Zelian smiled as he gathered the scattered slips on the table and grinned: "Number 1 is me."
With that, he reached out to Xiao Jinsheng, inviting, "Let’s go home."
"Isn’t everywhere her home here?" Yu Yunxiao sulkily commented.
Que Zelian was in a good mood at the moment, entirely unfazed by the six men’s hostility.
Xiao Jinsheng also didn’t dare to stay here any longer, as the six men who didn’t draw number 1 were looking at her too intensely.
To avoid a repeat of the first time, where Que Zelian used his superpower mist as a bed, Xiao Jinsheng washed up in her room first and went to his bed.
She listened to the sound of water in the bathroom, calculating that after tonight, her spiritual power would rise to 7 stars.
When Que Zelian came out wearing a red robe, his orange-red long hair half-wet, Xiao Jinsheng took the initiative to say, "Let me dry your hair for you."
Que Zelian’s radiant gaze fell on her, and he smiled: "No need for such trouble."
Saying this, his superpower mist absorbed the moisture from his long hair instantly.
Xiao Jinsheng’s own hair was only half-dried with a blow dryer.
She really didn’t have the patience to hold a humming dryer for long.
Que Zelian reached out, his warm palm gently caressing the back of her head, and her wavy black hair instantly dried.
He leaned down to lightly kiss her lips and softly said, "Sleep now, good night."
The room’s lights were turned off by the wind element superpower, leaving only a cloud bird night lamp on the bedside, emitting a faint warm glow.
Xiao Jinsheng turned her head to look at the already-in-bed Que Zelian, who pulled her into his arms.
Her face pressed against his warm chest, inhaling that familiar scent of cedar.
The cozy room, warm embrace, all filled with a sense of security and tranquility.
Yet, Xiao Jinsheng’s hand was restless, her fingertips sliding down to Que Zelian’s lower back.
"Aren’t you tired? Not going to rest?" Que Zelian asked softly, lowering his gaze.
Xiao Jinsheng looked up at him, biting her lip without speaking, but her hand under the covers playfully moved, soon captured by Que Zelian, who grasped her wrist.
"Xiao Jin, it’s time to rest." Que Zelian clasped her hands over his heart, gently reminding her.
"You..." Xiao Jinsheng hesitated.
It’s still early; are they just going to sleep?
Saying Que Zelian is pure and shy, she didn’t believe it.
After the first time on the clouds, she knew Que Zelian was faking a pure image.
If she had to rank the Beast Husbands based on experience,
for who had the best technique, she felt the order was: Li, Mo Jiao, Que Zelian, Su Ye.
Que Zelian wasn’t first, but he ranked high.
Clearly, back at the small villa in Mist East, after coming out of Li’s room, Que Zelian couldn’t resist pulling her into his, filled with resentment and grievance.
Accusing her of using him and then not acknowledging him.
But today, she offered herself, yet Que Zelian could hold back?
Is he now eating only vegetarian and not spicy?
"Que Zelian... could it be you’re not up to it?" Xiao Jinsheng hesitated.
She recalled that time they encountered the Eleven Stars Fog Corpse, and Que Zelian was seriously injured trying to protect her.
"Really curious, what exactly goes through your head each day." Que Zelian remarked frustratedly.
He was very tolerant and rarely got frustrated easily.
Only Xiao Jinsheng could consistently breach his psychological defenses.
"Then you don’t like me anymore!" Xiao Jinsheng exclaimed angrily, struggling to push him away.
Que Zelian rolled over, pinning her down, his radiant eyes filled with darkness as he softened his voice to soothe her: "I have something to tell you first."
"Trying to change the topic? Let me hear what you have to say." Xiao Jinsheng lay there, staring directly at him.
"Do you remember the first time you entered Mist West on a mission?" Que Zelian urged her to recall, "We encountered another team while resting at night, one with a female named Peng Qin."
"Yeah, why bring her up suddenly?" Xiao Jinsheng thought back to her conversation with Peng Qin, where Que Zelian stayed nearby for her safety.
Suddenly, her heart became uneasy.
Sure enough, Que Zelian’s finger gently stroked Xiao Jinsheng’s earlobe, speaking softly: "I heard your conversation with Peng Qin."
Xiao Jinsheng became alert.
Que Zelian smiled meaningfully: "I also know about the method to enhance a female’s spiritual power."
Xiao Jinsheng’s expression froze in shock.
I knew it!
Que Zelian wasn’t far; he was at least a 5 Stars Beastman.
At the time, she suspected he might have overheard her talk with Peng Qin.
But later, Que Zelian’s various actions didn’t suggest he had heard.
Who knew this jerk could pretend to be pure to such an extent, even mastering the art of secrecy in such matters!
"You..." Xiao Jinsheng turned her head, avoiding Que Zelian’s intense gaze.
Yet he gently pinched her chin, aligning her line of sight, his voice entwined: "Xiao Jin, look at me."
"Not only do I know how you enhance your spiritual power, but I also know our first time, you did it just to boost your spiritual power."
"No love involved, only utilization, is that right?"
This moment was akin to having an emotional debt come due.
Xiao Jinsheng quickly strategized her next move.
Seeing her remain silent, refusing to meet his gaze and instead closing her eyes, Que Zelian chuckled with resignation.
Que Zelian gently tapped her smooth forehead with his finger: "Right now, are you thinking all sorts of nonsense again?"
"If not these thoughts, then what else? Are you here to settle accounts with me now?" Xiao Jinsheng retorted, lying idly: "Then what should I do, it’s already done; having me is your..."
"...privilege." Que Zelian completed.
"I brought this up not to reopen old accounts, but to explain." Que Zelian lay back on the bed, tightly embracing Xiao Jinsheng, his body almost burning.
Even his voice was slightly hoarse, yet he still suppressed his yearning: "The enhancement of spiritual power is very dangerous for you."
"You’re already at Six Stars Spiritual Power, advancing one more star brings you closer to danger."
