Chapter 85 Patting the Head
The light from the incandescent bulb shone down, and the woman's gentle fingers lightly brushed through his pink hair, softly landing on his scalp.

The dense pain and the gentle touches intertwined, forming a complex mix of bittersweet emotions in my heart.

Her pink eyes were gently half-closed, and her head was also slightly lowered obediently. Beneath her wispy hair, her eyes seemed to be faintly tinged with a sour red.

In the past, no matter what kind of injury he suffered, Qixu relied on his own healing power to recover. Even if the recovery was slow and the process was difficult, he still got through it.

But now someone is tending to his wounds, bandaging them, and beneath his pink, tousled hair, stained with wine and blood, a pair of pink eyes are slightly reddened.

The owner is very nice.

Qixu is willing to spend her whole life protecting him.

After treating her wounds, Jiang Mian pulled Qi Xu up and put her things into her hub space. She then said crisply, "Let's go home."

"Mmm," Qixu responded softly.

He added a sentence in his mind.

Okay, time to go home.

"Chi Lin, let's go." Jiang Mian called out to Chi Lin, who was leaning against the light switch.

Chi Lin glanced at Jiang Mian, and only when Jiang Mian walked to his side did he straighten up and follow her out. Qi Xu followed behind the two of them.

The three of them left Nightshade together.

On the way, Jiang Mian patted Chi Lin on the shoulder, and Chi Lin turned his head to look at her. His eyes, which had been looking at the road with a calm expression, suddenly flashed with a gentle and alluring light when he looked at Jiang Mian. Jiang Mian's appearance was reflected in his eyes, and he gently smiled and asked, "Sister, what's wrong?"

"You did a great job in the private room just now." Jiang Mian smiled, her dark eyes looking at him with clarity. "Thanks to you, we got out unharmed."

"Oh, is that so? Then what reward do you have for me, sister?" Chi Lin chuckled as she stared at her. "Like, sister, give me a kiss."

"Verbal praise is enough." Jiang Mian smiled slightly, then turned her head away.

The next second, Chi Lin quickly lowered his head and kissed her cheek, a light touch like a dragonfly skimming the water, his voice tinged with laughter: "It's okay for me to kiss you too."

Jiang Mian paused for a moment before wiping her face and turning to look at him with a forced smile: "If it weren't for your help tonight, I would definitely have slapped you."

Chi Lin didn't speak, he just kept looking at her, the smile on his face gradually widened, and a sexy laugh came from his throat. The meaning in his gaze became more and more unclear, with a sticky feeling of liking, a feeling of drowning liking that filled his eyes.

It seems that just watching her and listening to her talk makes him happy and he really likes her.

What are you laughing at?
Jiang Mian's heart skipped a beat when her gaze met that look, and she quickly looked away.

Could this guy have actually fallen for her?
Jiang Mian immediately changed the subject: "By the way, aren't you a male model for Night Charm? You're off work? Will it be alright if you come with me now?"

"Ha, sister, you actually believe my nonsense?" Chi Lin chuckled. "I just made it all up based on what you said. Besides, how could Night Enchantress possibly hire a male model of my caliber?"

Jiang Mian paused, realizing that she had misunderstood the situation: "Alright then."

For a moment, Jiang Mian simply walked forward quietly.

Behind them, Qixu witnessed the entire scene.

A flicker of something seemed to cross his pink eyes: could he kiss her like the scorpion beastman?

When Qixu realized what she was thinking, she quickly lowered her gaze even further and lowered her head even further, as if hiding her shameful thoughts deep inside, in a place where no one could see them.

He was just a beast slave; he shouldn't be thinking such insubordinate things. But that scorpion beastman was also a beast slave.

No, he shouldn't be thinking about these things.

Perhaps he just wanted to keep her gentleness by his side.

The relationship is fine as it is now, and we shouldn't break it.

Jiang Mian and the two orcs passed through the long alley where vagrants gathered once again.

Now that she was surrounded by two orcs instead of one, she was even less afraid of what might happen.

The man and the two beasts simply passed through the long alley.

Jiang Mian felt many gazes seemingly falling on her, as well as a few that seemed very intense.

It was the same when she came before, so she doesn't care about these stares now that she's left.

Jiang Mian's figure disappeared completely from this long alley.

Fox Nine's gaze, which had been fixed on the other person, finally snapped out of its daze and looked away.

The moment he saw the woman's face, he was instantly stunned, staring at her for a long time as if his soul had floated away.

"Brother, she's so beautiful." Fox Nine's soul was still floating. "Such a beautiful female, I really want to mate with her."

However, Fox Seven kept his eyes closed and did not answer him.

"Brother, she doesn't even look at me." Fox Nine was naturally very disappointed.

He actually hoped that for a moment, the woman would notice his gaze and their eyes would meet unintentionally.

At that moment, his heart would definitely pound so hard it would explode, and he would feel dizzy and disoriented.

He stayed there, his gaze repeatedly sweeping towards the alley entrance. He didn't close his eyes to sleep for so long, hoping that when the woman returned and passed through this long alley again, he could see her figure once more.

Now I have indeed seen it as I wished, but I still feel it's not enough.

He wanted to get to know her.

Meanwhile, Jiang Mian had already returned to the house with his two orcs.

She washed up and quickly went back to her room to prepare for bed.

However, Jiang Mian thought that the defense system of the small building needed to be built, so she went to Rong Fei's room next door and knocked on the door.

Rong Fei opened the door quickly, his silver eyes flickered slightly, and his gaze gently fell on her. His voice was gentle: "Mianmian, is there something you need?"

"Rong Fei, could you help me build a defense system for this little building? How many star coins do you need? Just tell me and I'll transfer them to you." Jiang Mian stated her purpose directly.

"It's just a defense system, it doesn't cost any money." Rong Fei gently patted her head, bent down slightly, looked down at her, and smiled. "I'll get it done for you tomorrow."

Jiang Mian paused for a moment. Rong Fei said he didn't want money, but she felt bad about letting him work for free, so she said, "I don't need money. What do you need me to do? I'll do anything I can."

Rong Fei stared at her for a while, his eyes filled with unfathomable emotions. She was the one he needed.
