Transmigrating into the only holy female in the interstellar world, the orcs who have no descendants
Chapter 362 The Rain is Back
An unfamiliar breath instantly surrounded Rosie, warm and aggressive, like the scorching sun on a summer afternoon, or like a galloping horse on the grassland, with its primitive wildness.
Rosie's cheeks felt slightly hot. She could feel Falcon's body was very hot, his chest was as hard as iron, his muscles were taut, and even through the thin hide, she could sense the powerful strength contained within that body.
She subconsciously tried to break free, but found that her wrist was firmly held by Falcon, like a pair of pliers, preventing her from moving.
"You..." Rosie opened her eyes and looked up at Falcon.
Falcon didn't look at her, he just lowered his head and looked at the hand he was holding.
That hand was white, slender, and soft, like the finest mutton-fat jade, or like new sprouts in spring, as if it would break with the slightest touch.
Falcon's Adam's apple rolled up and down unconsciously. He felt his palms getting hot, like holding a red-hot iron or a beating heart.
He suddenly let go of his hand and took a step back as if he had been electrocuted.
Rosie's wrist was free again. She rubbed her wrist, which had been pinched until it turned red, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart.
This man is too rude, isn't he?
But the other party saved himself after all.
"Thank you." Luo Xi thanked her sincerely.
Falcon didn't say anything. He just snorted coldly, turned around and walked aside, continuing to stare at the scorpion beastman's corpse on the ground.
Luo Qian looked at his back, feeling somewhat puzzled. This man was too strange, wasn't he? He had clearly saved her, yet he still acted so reluctant.
Could it be that he hates her?
Luo Xi remembered what Yu had said before, that this falcon seemed to hate females.
Could it be that he hated her because she was a female?
A faint sense of loss welled up in Luo Xi's heart. She didn't understand why she cared about the opinion of a stranger.
She shook her head, trying to get rid of those messy thoughts.
"Hey," Rosie walked over to Falcon and broke the silence, "Your name is Falcon, right?"
Falcon didn't look back, but just said "hmm" coldly.
Luo Xi didn't care about his indifference. She said to herself, "My name is Luo Xi. Thank you for saving me."
Falcon still didn't react, he just stood there quietly, like a sculpture.
Rosie was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
She and this man really had nothing in common.
"Sissi!"
A familiar voice sounded, and she looked up suddenly, with hope shining in her eyes.
The rain was coming in fast. His phoenix eyes, which usually always showed a smile, were now filled with anxiety and worry. His short silver hair was messed up by the wind, but it did not diminish his handsomeness at all.
Rosie no longer cared about anything else. She stumbled into the rain, but her feet were slippery and she almost fell.
Yu arrived just in time, opened his arms, and hugged Luo Xi tightly. His chest was broad and warm, with a familiar fragrance, mixed with the freshness of the earth after the rain, which made Luo Xi feel inexplicably at ease.
"Are you okay? Are you hurt?" Yu's voice trembled slightly. He held Luo Xi's face and examined it carefully, his eyes anxious, fearing that she would be hurt.
Luo Xi shook her head, but tears flowed down her face like beads from a broken string, hitting the back of Yu's hand. She clutched Yu's fur skirt tightly, her knuckles turning slightly white from the force.
"I'm fine..." She choked and said, her voice hoarse. She wanted to tell Yu how scared and helpless she was just now, and how disgusting that scorpion beastman was.
However, she didn't want to make Yu worry. She knew that Yu had worked hard enough to take care of her, and she didn't want to add to his burden.
Yu looked at Luo Xi's pale face, wet eyes, and the hands that were tightly clutching his animal skin skirt. Even if she didn't say anything, he could guess what she had been through.
He was the main force of the tribe's hunting team. Today, they went hunting outside the Misty Forest to store food for the cold season. He thought that if he left Rosie in the tribe, with so many tribesmen protecting her, she would be safe.
Unexpectedly, something happened... A trace of regret flashed in Yu's eyes. He tightened his arms and hugged Luo Xi tighter, wishing he could rub her into his body and protect her forever.
He really wanted to turn her into a small one, hold her in his arms, take her with him wherever he went, and never let her out of his sight.
Yu lowered his head and gently placed a kiss on Luo Xi's forehead. The warm touch, like a warm current, dispelled the chill in Luo Xi's heart. He didn't say anything, but used his actions to tell her that he was back, he would protect her, and would never let her suffer any harm again.
Luo Xi could feel Yu's heartache. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself. She raised her head, looked at Yu, and said softly, "I'm really fine, just... a little scared."
Yu held Luo Xi's face, and gently wiped away the tears on her face with her thumb. Her eyes were so gentle that they could drip water: "It's okay, I'm here."
He paused, a hint of self-blame in his tone: "Blame me, I shouldn't have left you alone in the cave."
Luo Xi shook her head: "It's not your fault. No one expected this to happen."
Yu didn't say anything else. He just hugged Luo Xi tightly, as if he was holding a lost treasure.
Falcon stood aside, looking at the two people hugging each other tightly, his brows furrowed, his expression showing undisguised impatience.
An inexplicable irritation grew wildly in my heart like weeds, quickly spreading to every part of my body.
Falcon hated this feeling.
This feeling of being out of control.
He lowered his head and looked at his empty hands. The soft touch from earlier seemed to still linger on his palms...
"Thank you for saving Xixi." Yu protected Luo Xi behind him and looked up at Falcon.
He knew that if Falcon had not appeared in time, the consequences would be disastrous.
"That's twice." Falcon suddenly clenched his fists, his voice cold and hard, "Verbal thanks are useless, you have to repay me."
Yu was slightly startled. He didn't expect Falcon to say that. He looked down at the frightened Rosie in his arms, then looked up at Falcon, a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
"Okay." Yu finally agreed, "But can we wait until after the winter season?"
He knew that the Misty Forest was full of dangers and many males who went there would die in it and never come out.
Before this, he didn't care about his own life or death.
But it is different now.
He had Sissi.
He didn't want her to face unknown dangers alone.
Moreover, the cold season is coming soon, and he must stock up on enough food as soon as possible to ensure that Rosie can safely survive this long season.
Falcon frowned, obviously not satisfied with the proposal.
"No," he said firmly, "Tomorrow. I'll wait for you at the entrance of the Misty Forest."
Yu's face looked a little ugly. He knew Falcon's temper. Once a decision was made, it was difficult to change it.
He looked at Rosie hesitantly, his eyes filled with worry. He didn't want to leave Rosie, and he didn't want her to face unknown dangers alone.
"Go ahead." Luo Xi said softly, her voice firm. "I'm fine. I'll stay in the tribe and wait for you to come back."
Yu pondered. The corpse of the scorpion beast on the ground was the most powerful stray beast nearby. Now that it was dead, the tribe should be truly safe this time.
And the favor he owed to Falcon would have to be repaid sooner or later...
"I'll take care of Xixi and come find you tomorrow." Yu finally made a decision. He looked at Falcon and said seriously, "I'll only help you get to the outer part. I won't go inside with you. I still have to accompany Xixi through the cold season."
Deep in the misty forest, dangers are lurking everywhere. He has to keep his life and stay with the little female for many more years.
Falcon scoffed and seemed to be muttering something under his breath.
Rosie didn't hear clearly, nor was she curious.
"Okay, let's go to the periphery." Falcon's voice sounded again, with a hint of impatience, "Don't forget what you said."
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Yu looked at Falcon's departing back, turned around, hugged Luo Xi tightly in her arms, lowered her head and whispered in her ear: "Don't be afraid, I will be back soon."
Luo Xi nodded without saying anything. She hugged Yu tightly back, feeling the warmth coming from him, and an inexplicable sense of security surged in her heart.
She knew that her rain would definitely come back.
