Chapter 279 - Sincerity
Fifteen minutes later, Long Chen was standing in front of the bed. Ling Xi was wearing his clothes and had rolled herself in the thick, heavy cotton blanket. She blushed a deep red and peered out cautiously, looking at him pitifully. Amidst her cautiousness, there was some panic, embarrassment, and other emotions mixed in.
She had not done anything with anyone before, yet she had just appeared fully naked in front of Long Chen—and it had lasted seven minutes! Ling Xi wished she could dig a hole and hide in it. Waves of emotion crashed through her, and her heart was pounding in her chest as she stared at the teenage boy.
Long Chen was shameless though. He was looking at Ling Xi with amusement in his eyes, though the fire in them made Ling Xi both afraid and embarrassed, panicking inside. She had not expected to experience so many emotions the moment she finally had a human body again after such a long time without one.
“Brother Chen, w-what do you want ...” Ling Xi clutched the pink blanket tightly, eyeing him with panic. She had none of her powers right now, so she would not be able to defend herself if Long Chen wanted to do anything.
“Me? Hehe. I want to eat you up! You’re just so tender ...” Long Chen’s gaze was filled with burning desire.
“No! No! My mother said I am not of age yet, so she forbade me from ... Brother Chen, I’m begging you not to, please?” Ling Xi said fearfully.
Long Chen was merely joking. If he started to bully her the moment she returned to a human body, it might traumatize her, which would be bad.
“I’m kidding, Xiao Xi. How do you feel now?” Long Chen sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the silly girl lovingly. Long Chen was still in a daze due to her beauty.
Ling Xi’s fearfulness slowly faded after the burning desire in his eyes disappeared and was replaced with gentle warmth. She thought about how he had found her some clothes and still had not touched her even though fifteen minutes had passed. As a result, she relaxed.
“I feel like I’m dreaming. I don’t have any strength in my body; I guess it’s like when I was a newborn baby. This body made by the Profound Heavenly Jade Lotus will surely break down if I attempt to cultivate though. But I feel good. It feels so good to be human ...”
All her senses had returned—her sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. Ling Xi savored them slowly. She had previously dreamed of this moment, and because of Long Chen, her dreams had been fulfilled.
Although she was still embarrassed, she mainly felt grateful towards Long Chen.
“But ... Brother Chen, I’m so cold ...”
It was spring. Ling Xi’s body was more susceptible to the cold, so although she was wrapped in a thick bundle of blankets, she was still shivering.
This is my chance ... Long Chen thought greedily. Without a word, he lifted the blanket and slipped into bed. Ling Xi exclaimed, but to her surprise, he did not do anything. All he did was lay next to her, then he looked at her and said, “If you trust me, use me to warm yourself up.”
“Really?” Ling Xi’s eyes brightened. She hesitated for a while, leaning closer to Long Chen. She peered at him timidly, her cheeks turning red again. Her heart rate was increasing.
Seeing as she was still so hesitant, Long Chen reached out and pulled her in, so she lay by his side with her head on his arm. She squeaked in surprise and curled up into his chest like a small shrimp. Long Chen’s warm body and strong arm radiated a thick, masculine aura, making her little heart beat faster. Blushing, she shut her eyes tightly, her lashes trembling ...
“Why are you crying? Silly girl, you should be happy,” he said while patting her fair cheek.
Ling Xi did not stop crying.
“I won’t want you anymore if you keep crying,” he said, feigning anger.
“No!” Ling Xi waved her arms and reached out to hug his waist tightly, her soft chest pressed tightly on his body. Blood rushed to his head...
“No, I definitely want you!” Breathing heavily, he moved her arms away because if they continued embracing this tightly, he might actually turn into a wild beast.
“Oh!” Ling Xi also realized that she was being too aggressive. Her face reddened and she buried her face into his shoulder
“Brother Chen, what are we?” she asked after a pause.
This was a question she struggled with. They had shared near-death experiences since the day they met. At the Star Devil Prison, Ling Xi had sacrificed her life for him, but Long Chen was determined to jump into the abyss with her. Even Xiaolang could tell that something was different about their relationship and left the room to keep watch without a word. Yet they had not had a direct conversation about this.
Long Chen had long wanted to talk about it, but he merely had not gotten the chance. He held her face in his hands and stared at the beautiful girl. Then, as quick as lightning, he kissed her soft lips.
She froze as if struck by lightning, her eyes wide as she stared at him in shock. It was just one kiss, but her entire body stiffened.
He stopped kissing her after a lingering moment, then patted her shocked face. His burning gaze met hers. He then lowered his voice and said, enunciating every word slowly, “Ling Xi, I will protect you. No one can hurt you, and no one will take you away from me! You may wonder why I treat you so well, but I’m telling you this—it’s because you are my woman! The love of my life, the love of every lifetime of mine! Ling Xi, you are Long Chen’s woman!”
Ling Xi’s chest tightened at such passionate words. Her heart melted as she gazed into his burning eyes.
The memory of this man was etched deeply into her soul. A memory that would never fade away.
She was filled with sweetness, warmth, and joy, and everything else faded away. Neither of them could have imagined how difficult the road ahead would be, despite such noble promises. They did not know how many farewells they would have to bid before earning a lifetime of being by each other’s sides.
These two people who should not have met in the first place had found each other. If they wanted to be together, they were destined to face far more opposition than regular people.
But did Long Chen fear anything in the world?
He did not think too much. All he did was pull Ling Xi’s body tighter into his arms. He stared out at the starry sky outside the window, then started to tell her stories about his time in her absence, starting from how he woke up in the abyss of the Star Devil Prison, until he killed Emperor Yuan to become the most powerful person in Yuanling City.
