Chapter 35: The Game Has Already Begun

This is…

Xu Sheng will agree to any one of her conditions?

For a moment, Zhu Yuexi even thought she had misheard.

Xu Sheng clearly had the chance and ability to make her unable to withstand even a single slap.

She originally thought the first slap, which she could endure, was a kind of test, a kind of teasing.

She never expected Xu Sheng’s final slap…

It was so gentle it didn’t seem like one.

It was like a kiss.

A trace of gratitude actually sprouted in Zhu Yuexi’s heart.

She didn’t show it. Or rather, faced with such “gentleness,” she felt a sliver of panic, completely unsure of what attitude she should adopt towards Xu Sheng.

She even started to stammer a little.

“Wh-what… it’s already over…?”

Although Zhu Yuexi’s cheeks were already quite flushed before, the expression she turned to look at him with now carried a hint of bashful shyness, like a high school girl being teased by the boy she likes.

This time, Xu Sheng’s expression didn’t change. He still wore that gentle smile.

“Yes, I’ll count this as your win this time.”

An obvious concession, a crude trick, yet precisely effective at a time like this.

Xu Sheng’s hand reached out again, pinching Zhu Yuexi’s chin.

Still not exactly rough. This gentleness made Zhu Yuexi’s eyes grow hazy once more.

Xu Sheng’s fingers intentionally or unintentionally brushed across Zhu Yuexi’s chin. Perhaps because she was getting into the state, Zhu Yuexi subconsciously opened her mouth.

The oral urge is one of humanity’s most primitive expressions of desire. Often, the emotions expressed through oral urges are far more accurate than those expressed through sex.

This sudden, gentle trick worked very well on Zhu Yuexi. Indeed, contrast is the most seductive thing for both men and women.

However, this time Xu Sheng was actively enticing the other party’s oral urge to bite his finger, so he didn’t plan to use this point to verbally conquer her.

He just asked softly:

“So, what reward do you want? My status and position can probably give you anything you can imagine.”

This wasn’t an exaggeration. Xu Sheng, the Valley Lord of the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, had that capability, not to mention that Xu Sheng wielded authority akin to an “administrator” within this dream.

Zhu Yuexi fell into a rare silence.

However, Zhu Yuexi’s own status was sufficiently noble; what good thing hadn’t she seen? So, when suddenly asked like this, it was natural she couldn’t come up with an answer.

And Xu Sheng actually didn’t want to use the reward on something like this. If handled properly, this reward could be an opportunity to advance their relationship in the future.

“If you can’t think of anything, you can come find me later.”

Hearing Xu Sheng’s reminder, Zhu Yuexi bit his finger a little harder with her mouth and nodded.

Even her body language carried a hint of bashfulness.

Given Zhu Yuexi’s personality, perhaps after the emotions of this state passed, she might regress somewhat closer to her former self. Xu Sheng needed to make good use of this time.

“Do you want to play another game?”

Play another game?

A woman in this state, showing a confused expression, is the most beautiful. Biting Xu Sheng’s finger, a trace of bewilderment appeared in Zhu Yuexi’s eyes.

She waited for Xu Sheng to describe the new game.

But Xu Sheng kept her in suspense.

“You tell me first. Will you play or not?”

As he spoke, his other hand patted Zhu Yuexi’s behind.

Hmm… she really did sweat a lot.

Hearing Xu Sheng’s words, Zhu Yuexi nodded.

“Good, you’ll play then.” Xu Sheng smiled.

He tugged at Zhu Yuexi’s skirt.

“This dress of yours is soaked through. It’s uncomfortable to wear and should be changed.”

What does changing clothes have to do with the game?

Zhu Yuexi hadn’t yet figured out the connection.

Rip—

With a sound, Zhu Yuexi realized Xu Sheng had torn her skirt off.

It wasn’t torn into rags, though. On the contrary, from Xu Sheng’s perspective, what was now exposed…

Was quite aesthetically pleasing.

The area that had been dampened was now directly bare. Zhu Yuexi first felt a wave of coolness, followed by an indescribable shyness.

Although Xu Sheng had seen this part of her before, being so completely bare in front of him like this would make any woman feel embarrassed.

If Xu Sheng could hear Zhu Yuexi’s thoughts, he would definitely retort.

How is this ‘completely bare’?

At this moment, Zhu Yuexi’s behind bore three solid little cat paw prints.

There should have been five originally. One was “off-target” from Xu Sheng’s slap, and another was let down too gently by Xu Sheng to leave a mark.

They were hidden by the skirt before, but now exposed, they looked incredibly cute.

If this were modern times, Xu Sheng would have saved it on his phone.

Speaking of saving… generally, girls don’t allow filming. You could first propose using the other person’s phone, leaving it in their phone as a constraint to lower their guard, and then…

Ahem, getting off track.

His finger lightly traced over the little cat paw prints. The already slightly burning area being touched sent a thrill of pleasure through Zhu Yuexi.

“Mmm…”

Zhu Yuexi couldn’t help but let out a soft moan. Now that the game was over, there was no need to hold back anymore.

But thinking of this, Zhu Yuexi also reacted.

“What game are you talking about?”

Xu Sheng didn’t answer immediately.

“With so many little cat marks on your body, it’s like you really are a little cat.”

Actually, this statement wasn’t very logical if taken seriously, but in this situation, complimenting a woman for being like a kitten doesn’t require much logic. Xu Sheng was just trying to introduce the game.

“However, there’s one difference from a little cat. After all, little cats all have tails.”

Tails?

Hearing this turn, Zhu Yuexi was confused.

Tails? She definitely didn’t have a tail. She wasn’t some shapeshifting great demon.

The next second, something cold touched her skin. Zhu Yuexi’s body shuddered instinctively.

Turning her head to look, she saw Xu Sheng holding a tail in his hand.

Huh?

It was a small object Zhu Yuexi had never seen before. It looked exquisitely crafted, just like a real kitten’s tail. And at the other end of the tail, there was a strange oval shape.

It was normal for Zhu Yuexi not to recognize it. After all, she didn’t read just any kind of storybooks.

“In that case, it’s better to be even more like a little cat.”

Listening to Xu Sheng’s words, that cold sensation came again, rubbing against her body.

Zhu Yuexi’s eyes widened.

She roughly understood how this so-called “game” was meant to be played.

How could…

How could it be like this?

Absolutely not!

Immense shame enveloped Zhu Yuexi, even greater than the shame she felt yesterday when Xu Sheng made her drink the medicine. The next second, she pushed herself up, seemingly about to flee immediately.

Slap!

With clothes on before, it wasn’t apparent, but now with Xu Sheng’s slap landing, one could truly witness with the naked eye what a young woman’s elasticity was.

With that one slap, Zhu Yuexi went limp all over again.

Xu Sheng held her down.

“The game has already begun.”
