Traveling through the world of beasts: Beast husbands! Stop snatching!

After Zehui and Yunfeng left, only Yu Mo was left to accompany Yuan Xiao.

Normally, no matter what Yuan Xiao does, Yu Mo will follow her, but he will not follow her too closely, basically keeping a distance of two or three steps away from her so as not to interfere with their conversation.

Yuan Xiao actually likes Yu Mo's sense of propriety, which doesn't make people feel uncomfortable.

That day, the two of them had lunch together. Yu Mo glanced at the little female and asked, "Why don't you wear that black skirt?"

Yuan Xiao knew that he was asking about the one made from his snake slough.

"I'm pregnant now, so that one is a bit tight for me. I'm afraid it will get damaged, so I put it away first."

Yu Mo lowered his head and continued to eat. After a while, he said to Yuan Xiao, "I'll make another one for you when I shed my skin next time."

Yuan Xiao: "When is the next time you shed your skin?"

Yu Mo: "Next year."

Yuan Xiao smiled helplessly. A year was indeed not a long time for orcs.

Yu Mo: "Do you want to go out for a walk after dinner?"

Yuan Xiao: "No, it's not interesting, and I've been feeling very tired lately, and my legs are sore."

She put down her chopsticks and prepared to wash the dishes.

Yu Mo snatched it away and asked her to sit and wait for him.

After finishing brushing, he followed Yuan Xiao to her room.

Yuan Xiao leaned back on the bed and couldn't help pinching her calves.

Yu Mo looked a little nervous. He took a step forward and asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Yuan Xiao nodded and continued to rub her legs.

Yu Mo walked over, squatted down, and gently massaged her legs.

Yu Mo: "Is it here?"

Yuan Xiao: "Well...a little higher..."

Yu Mo: "Here?"

Yuan Xiao: "Yes, it's here."

Yu Mo didn't say anything else and focused on massaging her calves.

He looked down, his eyes moving with his hands, his dark hair falling from his shoulders, the sunlight hitting his face, reflecting his eyelashes.

Yuan Xiao's gaze swept from his hair to his eyebrows, across the bridge and tip of his nose, and finally fell on his lips.

His lips are a little thin and the color is a little pale. He looks very cold and distant, but one can't help but want to explore him.

"You're looking at my... mouth?"

Yu Mo suddenly said this, which really scared Yuan Xiao.

"No...no..."

She hesitated and didn't dare to admit it.

Yu Mo: "I saw you were staring at my mouth."

Yuan Xiao's face began to turn slightly red: "Your mouth... looks very beautiful..."

Yu Mo raised his head and stared into her eyes. His dark pupils seemed to see through her.

After looking at her like this for a while, he lowered his head and continued to massage her legs.

"You're the first female to ever tell me I have a nice mouth."

These words suddenly aroused Yuan Xiao's curiosity again.

Yuan Xiao: "Has no female ever told you that you are pretty?"

Yu Mo: “Yes.”

Yuan Xiao: "Has any female ever pursued you before?"

Yu Mo: “Yes.”

Yuan Xiao: "That's it, I didn't realize you're so attractive."

Yu Mo: "I don't, I never talk to females."

Yuan Xiao: "Then you still talked to me, didn't you?"

Yu Mo didn't answer, but his hands never stopped moving.

"You are different from them."

He spoke calmly, without expression or tone, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

"Then tell me, what's the difference?"

Yu Mo stopped what he was doing and stood up.

"I'm done. You should take a nap. I'll go prepare dinner."

Without even glancing at the little female, he dashed into the cafeteria's kitchen.

Yuan Xiao smiled, lay down, covered herself with a blanket, and enjoyed a relaxing lunch break.

In the kitchen, Yu Mo stared at the bubbling beef soup in a trance.

All he could think of was the little female's smiling face, especially her big, bright eyes, which seemed to illuminate the darkest part of his heart.

At that moment, he seemed to be bewitched. It was even more poisonous than his own, and he was powerless to resist.

After a long moment, he sighed.

That was a close call. I almost said it out loud.

He really wanted to express his feelings to the little female, but he was worried that she would reject him.

At that point, he would have no choice but to walk away.

Rather than that, it would be better not to say anything. At least he can still accompany her like this.

He just wanted to be with her, forever.

------------

At dinner time, Yu Mo brought out a large bowl of beef soup and a plate of cut fruits.

The beef soup was fragrant and tasty. The fruits were cut into the right size and neatly arranged.

He handed the spoon to Yuan Xiao and watched her take a sip of the soup, feeling very nervous.

Yu Mo: "How does it taste?"

Yuan Xiao: "Your cooking skills are so good! Your beef soup is almost as good as Zehui's. Even I can hardly tell the difference!"

Yu Mo: "As long as you like it."

He pushed the soup bowl and fruit plate towards the little female again.

"Eat slowly. I'll wait for you."

Yuan Xiao ate with big mouthfuls and asked him, "Why don't you eat?"

Yu Mo: "I've already eaten."

Yuan Xiao understood: "Let's eat together next time."

Yu Mo: "Okay."

After dinner, it was already dark, and Yu Mo accompanied the little female to the lake to wash up as usual.

Yuan Xiao: "It's so dark, please pull me closer."

Yu Mo walked quickly forward and pinched her arm somewhat unnaturally.

Yuan Xiao was so amused by his expression that she almost laughed out loud.

After quickly washing, the two returned to the castle.

In order to make it more convenient for Yu Mo to take care of Yuan Xiao, Ze Hui and the others agreed to let Yu Mo live opposite Yuan Xiao.

He covered the little female with a blanket and quietly went back to the room opposite.

On rainy nights, the rain came as promised.

The rain tonight is heavier than usual, accompanied by lightning and thunder.

Boom——

A loud thunder woke Yuan Xiao up and she screamed in fright.

The room was dark, but in the moonlight, she could see Xiaoshuang sleeping soundly by the window.

Boom——

There was another scream, and she was so scared that she covered her head with a blanket, and even her voice sounded like crying.

"Yu Mo...are you there?"

"I'm here."

She heard the familiar voice and slowly removed the blanket from her head.

Yu Mo stood at the door and looked at her, his eyes less cold.

Yuan Xiao: "I can't sleep."

Yu Mo walked forward and stood beside her bed: "I'll stay with you, go to sleep."

Yuan Xiao nodded and closed her eyes.

After a while, she opened her eyes again and saw Yu Mo still standing in front of her bed.

Yuan Xiao: "I can't sleep like this..."

Yu Mo: "Then how did you sleep when there was thunder before?"

Yuan Xiao: "Before, it was Zehui or Yunfeng who hugged me while I slept..."

She suddenly stopped and glanced at Yu Mo subconsciously.

He still looked cold, but his eyes seemed to have a little more warmth.

Yuan Xiao thought, maybe it was because it was pitch dark that he saw it wrong.

Rumbling--

The thunders were getting louder and louder. Yuan Xiao simply steeled himself and said something.

"Or, just hug me!"
