A gentle breeze brushed her face as the rainforest below undulated like green waves.
Bai Luxin held a roasted fish while her other hand touched the white clouds beside her.
They were not as soft as Nuobai.
Suddenly, an idea struck her. Through their contract, she sent a command to Nuobai.
“Catch me.”
Then she shifted her center of gravity, closed her eyes, and fell off Nuobai.
Nuobai instinctively tried to catch her with her tail, but Bai Luxin dodged.
This sudden accident startled Nuobai.
The excitement she had felt from flying vanished completely.
She immediately used [Instant Kill Step] to adjust her direction and dove toward Bai Luxin.
Through their contract link, Bai Luxin felt Nuobai’s anxiety, but she smiled happily like a child who had stolen candy.
Three, two, one… the countdown ended.
Nuobai caught her steadily in midair. She stopped flying and hurriedly landed to confront her.
“Sister!”
“What are you doing?”
“Jumping off suddenly like that scared me to death. Are you hurt?”
Bai Luxin at that moment looked like she was drunk, her face flushed, utterly intoxicated.
Nuobai cared about her, worried about her. She was concerned for her…
Bai Luxin knew all of this. She was well aware.
But just now, she wanted to test it, to more truly confirm her place in Nuobai’s heart.
Nuobai had lied to her…
Estimating the time a little, Nuobai had at least kept her alive for two months in the desert.
Bai Luxin could understand that Nuobai was afraid of worrying her, or had some other reason for not telling her the truth.
She really couldn’t lie; the flaws were too obvious. Could a clumsy lie also be a sign of trust?
In any case, she felt that Nuobai had distanced herself a little.
What a dilemma. She wanted Nuobai to keep her distance, yet also wanted to be forever close and inseparable.
Pulling herself out of her emotions, Bai Luxin looked at Nuobai’s worried eyes and pressed her face close.
“A new game. Don’t you like it?”
Nuobai’s eyes were full of disbelief. Playing was playing, joking was joking, but you’re joking with your own life?
She instantly bristled!
“I don’t like it!”
“Don’t be angry. Eat some roasted fish.”
Bai Luxin shook the roasted fish in her hand and pouted, making a promise.
“I won’t do it again. Nuo Nuo, don’t be angry~”
“Calm down, be good~”
Nuobai pouted and transformed into a loli catgirl, looking up at her, but felt this lacked presence.
Then she changed into a mature catgirl state, snatched the roasted fish, and bit into it fiercely to vent her anger.
“No next time, or I’ll be angry.”
Bai Luxin propped her chin and watched her. The cat was angry, but easy to soothe.
She had indeed gone too far. Nuobai was becoming more and more like her former self, mature and steady.
She, on the other hand, had turned into the Nuobai of the past, full of little schemes, willful and craving attention.
Back at the camp, Bai Luxin kept smoothing her fur along the way, but Nuobai was still a bit unhappy.
“Don’t be angry. Do you want to go to the bonfire party tonight? I prepared something fun.”
As she said this, Bai Luxin took out a pair of cat ear headbands and put them on, making a fist with her right hand and placing it by her face.
“Do I look good, meow?”
Looking at the realistic cat ears on her head, Nuobai reached out, and Bai Luxin obediently lowered her head. Imitating Nuobai’s usual manner, she responded to her touch.
A strange sense of satisfaction spread in Nuobai’s heart. She couldn’t explain why, but she felt a bit shy.
“Average. Not as good as mine.”
Seeing her tail wagging happily, Bai Luxin knew she didn’t mean it, and spread her arms to ask her.
“Want to sleep for a while?”
“After waking up, you can go play directly.”
Faced with this long-lost invitation, Nuobai was genuinely appeased this time.
Without any hesitation, she took off her clothes, changed into pajamas, and sat on the bed in a duck-like position.
Exposing large areas of snow-white skin, her white hair fell messily over the unfathomable chasm.
Looking like she was ready to be plucked.
Bai Luxin lifted her chin, her gaze focusing on her slightly parted lips.
So tempting. It feels like tasting what flavor it is.
She slowly approached her lips, an ambiguous atmosphere enveloping the room.
Nuobai waited foolishly for her to come closer, thinking that her sister wanted to play some game or joke with her.
Their breaths mingled on each other’s faces. Nuobai scratched her cheek.
Jolted awake by her movement, Bai Luxin’s eyes grew dark, a trace of desire struggling within her sobriety.
She kissed Nuobai’s neck and extended her tongue to lick it.
Just like when Nuobai was drunk, testing her feelings.
“Sister, it tickles.”
Nuobai pushed her away, covering her burning neck, and turned her face aside in embarrassment.
A bucket of cold water poured over Bai Luxin’s head.
She had lost her mind, actually wanting to pull Nuobai into sinking with her desires.
‘She doesn’t like this!’
‘She is resisting me!’
Nuobai’s small resistance was now magnified infinitely in Bai Luxin’s heart.
“Change to your child form.”
“Huh?”
Nuobai was a bit puzzled. She thought Bai Luxin would like her current form, all soft and plump, comfortable to hug.
From mature catgirl to loli catgirl, Bai Luxin wrapped her arms around her waist, trapping her in her embrace.
Closing her eyes, she murmured with complex emotions.
“From now on, stay in this form…”
“Mm.”
“Sleep.”
When Nuobai couldn’t see, Bai Luxin revealed a bitter smile. She really couldn’t hold back anymore.
She was about to go crazy…
How could she not be hated by her…
That sleep, the two slept until dawn.
The loli catgirl Nuobai sat in front of the mirror, and Bai Luxin helped braid her hair.
After a night of inner struggle and constant self-hypnosis, she successfully twisted her feelings for Nuobai into maternal love.
As long as she wasn’t in that tempting adult form, Bai Luxin could control herself and treat her as her “daughter.”
“Will you leave me?”
Why ask such a question? Nuobai covered the mark from betrayal on her hand, looked up through the mirror at her.
“No!”
“I will absolutely never leave you!”
Her solemn manner made Bai Luxin laugh. Thinking she didn’t believe her, Nuobai raised three fingers.
“I swear!”
“I, Nuobai, will never leave you!”
“I believe you.”
Bai Luxin stood behind her, using her thumb to stroke the fluff by her ear, silently reciting a sentence in her heart.
‘My daughter.’
Instantly, all lust disappeared.
Happiness that fell from the sky always felt unreal, afraid it could be taken away at any moment.
Bai Luxin had been trying hard to catch up to Nuobai, but still couldn’t see her back, always feeling she was holding her back.
She wasn’t good at beast taming, only able to cook some food.
The one facing danger was always Nuobai alone.
She was also afraid that Nuobai would discover her dirty thoughts.
Lacking confidence, Bai Luxin always felt that she would disgust Nuobai and be abandoned.
However, she wasn’t the only one lacking confidence.
Nuobai scratched the red mark on the back of her hand— the stain of rebellion could not be washed away.
‘Was Sister testing me?’
‘Because I have a record of rebellion and also the talent for rebellion?’
She was probably overthinking. They had lived and died together.
In desperate situations, her sister even gave up on herself to give her an extra chance at life.
Sister probably just lacked a sense of security. It was time to leave the secret realm.
Maybe returning to Dragon Sleep City, the familiar environment would make her feel better.
The closer the relationship, the more they cared about each other, the more troubles they had, messing themselves up.
Nuobai attributed all of Bai Luxin’s abnormalities to a lack of security.
After all, they had just survived by a hair’s breadth. It was normal that she hadn’t recovered.
As long as they dealt with Long Qianwu, they could live peacefully and be together forever.
