The barbecue feast was lively and boisterous, and by the end, all of them—Lin Xing included—had flushed faces and floating steps, clearly tipsy and dizzy from the drinks.
Originally, Lin Xing hadn’t planned on drinking.
But then Little White actually raised the bottle and downed it in one go! Her cheeks were flushed, and in a rare change from her usual demeanor, she shot Lin Xing a slightly provocative look!
Lin Xing’s competitive spirit was instantly ignited. Refusing to be outdone, he drank right back at her.
The two of them ended up drinking against each other like that.
Meanwhile, Lumiya tried to sneak her tail toward the Lemon Soda, hoping to snatch a few bottles for herself.
But every time, Lin Xing’s quick eyes and hands caught her by the tail tip.
Lumiya puffed out her cheeks angrily, retracting her tail and pretending to be obedient.
Little Green, that bird, was useless! Pecked a couple of times and still hadn’t gotten up!
Everyone was still in high spirits; how could they possibly let the night end so soon?
Little White, cheeks rosy and eyes full of calculation, suggested, “Let’s go sing karaoke!”
Her suggestion was met with unanimous enthusiasm! Especially Little Green, who’d just sobered up a bit and was the most excited of all.
Lumiya took the lead, dashing to the front, her Dragon Tail swinging joyfully behind her as she hummed a tuneless melody.
Lin Xing followed behind, supporting the unsteady Little White, and every so often, he’d have to reach out and pull Little Green back from nearly being lured away by the Colored Lights along the road.
The noisy group hurried onward.
The neon lights of the Commercial Street shimmered over them, stretching and shrinking their shadows.
Smiles blossomed on every face, and even the night breeze seemed a little happier.
The moment they pushed open the private room door at the KTV,
Lumiya and Little Green rushed straight to the Song Selection Station, standing on tiptoe as they randomly tapped at the screen.
Perhaps it was talent, but Little Green could hum along skillfully after just hearing a song once.
While the two beasts were utterly entranced by the marvels of modern human society,
Little White clung to Lin Xing’s arm, curled up in the corner of the sofa. Her cheeks were as red as ripe peaches.
Her head nodded sleepily toward Lin Xing’s shoulder, looking thoroughly drowsy.
Lin Xing tried to pull his arm away, but the softness pressed tightly against it refused to let go.
A girl’s unique sweet scent, mixed with the faint aroma of alcohol, wafted from his shoulder, becoming an irresistibly alluring fragrance.
The air grew more and more ambiguous. Lin Xing’s rationality was gradually losing control, and instinct was starting to take over.
He sat rigidly, not daring to move. The soft touch against his arm became even clearer, the slight weight on his shoulder slowly settling.
Strands of hair slipped down to his neck, warm breath tinged with wine brushing his skin. His blood kept flowing downward, and desire gradually welled up.
The slight sobriety the night breeze had brought was swept away. His mind, which had been clearing up, was foggy again.
It felt as if this small corner was filled with pink bubbles.
Little White didn’t seem fully awake yet. Her little head resting on Lin Xing’s shoulder slowly lifted, dazed eyes half-open, looking up at him.
Their noses were nearly touching. Warm breaths intertwined, even the gentle rise and fall of their chests seemed to synchronize.
Staring at the face so close to his, Lin Xing could see her eyes glistening with moisture, and her cheeks—flushed from drink.
Her full lips glistened with traces of wine, alluring and completely unaware of themselves.
He froze, not knowing what to do.
Little White’s head inched ever so slowly closer, her lashes almost brushing his face, and her breath, tinged with alcohol, made his Adam’s apple tighten.
“Lin Xing! Little White! Come sing!”
At that critical moment,
Lumiya seemed to sense, from somewhere deep inside, that something destined to be hers was slowly being taken away!
She whipped around and saw Lin Xing and Little White pressed close together!
If she’d spoken a second later, would they have kissed?
She quickly called out to interrupt, but didn’t mention what they were doing.
That thin veil between them must not be pierced. What if exposing it really brought the two together?
That just wouldn’t do! Then she… No, what about Little Green! Little Green even let him touch her leg!
Lin Xing and Little White didn’t move, just pulled apart a little, pretending to be too drunk and dazed to respond to Lumiya’s call.
“Asleep? Little Green, look how lame Lin Xing is!”
“Yeah! Lin~… Lin Xing! Lame~! Super lame! Look at me, I’m super brave!”
Little Green, that silly bird, still wasn’t fully awake, merely echoing whatever Lumiya said, her wings flapping idly as she spoke.
Carelessly, she knocked over a Lemon Soda, spilling it all over Lumiya’s clothes.
Although Lumiya herself remained spotless and protected by her aura, her clothes weren’t so lucky. With one splash, large wet marks spread across them.
She frowned. While she didn’t feel sticky or uncomfortable, it still looked weird.
In that case, she’d just go to the restroom, take off her clothes, and use her Jade Scales to conjure up an identical outfit. That’d do!
So, decision made! But! Before that!
She glanced at Lin Xing and Little White, who really hadn’t put any distance between them.
No!
She couldn’t relax!
Catching sight of Little Green still singing, she suddenly had an idea!
“Little Green! Watch Lin Xing and Little White! Make sure they don’t collapse on the table!”
“Okay~ Leave~ it to me! Absolutely~… absolutely no problem!”
Alright~ As long as Little Green was watching, it’d be fine!
Then she strode quickly to the restroom.
Little Green hopped over to stand in front of Lin Xing and Little White, tilting her head as if pondering how to keep the two of them from collapsing on the table.
Suddenly, Lumiya flung open the restroom door.
Spot check!
She saw Little Green diligently standing guard in front of the two, finally feeling reassured as she returned to the restroom.
Now those two couldn’t possibly snuggle up again, right~
Yet the instant Lumiya closed the door, something seemed to click in Little Green’s mind. With a flash of green light,
A beautiful girl with waist-length green hair, dressed in a midriff-baring short skirt, sat dazedly on the edge of the table, eyes hazy and dewy.
She wobbled off the table, staggering unsteadily to stand on Lin Xing’s left.
Then her round, full curves slowly settled onto Lin Xing’s thigh. As if annoyed by his hand being in the way, she moved it to her waist, pressing her soft body firmly against his.
At the same time, she swiftly moved the unsuspecting Little White from Lin Xing’s right to his other leg.
Sensing Lin Xing’s awkward hand, she gently freed it and guided it to hold Little White tightly against Lin Xing’s chest.
Unlike the other side, this one had a touch more youthful roundness, and the softness that was previously on his arm now pressed directly against his chest.
With the contrasting, wonderful sensations on both sides,
Lin Xing’s mind completely crashed, and desire took over.
Little Green grinned with a silly, blissful look, utterly unaware of what she’d done, her mind filled only with the joy of successfully completing Lumiya’s mission.
As long as she hugged the two of them tight, that was fine~ Ehehe.
But?
Since when did Lin Xing have grilled sausage in his pocket?
