She was looking at the enchanted rope on his had with schooled expression. In reality, Lu Meili felt frustrated. Since Long Cheng was not holding the magical rope, there would be a lesser chance for her to get close to Long Jun and get her Scarlet pendant back. Also, she did not like how Long Cheng was staring at her at that moment. As if he had already won the battle, captured the enemy, and looking forward to torturing the prisoner.
"Beep!"
"Beep!"
Aside from that, the beeping sound from Lulu continued to blare near her ear. Her communicator was disguised as an earring, pierced at the upper part of her left ear.
Lu Meili could not help but feel further annoyed. Not only because of Long Cheng but also because of the annoying being that kept on trying to call her."I am busy!"she wanted to answer the call like that, but she could not.
Just like earlier, Long Cheng was greedily scanning her from head to toe like he had the full right to do so.
"Don"t look at me like that!" she said at Long Cheng with contempt. The evil smile immediately vanished from his face and was replaced with an amused one.
Lu Meili looked at Long Jun, "Commander, you promised…" She said through clenched teeth while trying to sound pitiful.
Long Jun shook his head, before raising his hands in mock surrender, "You are going to be fine in his hands." He said, a.s.suring, it was not convincing at all.
To add to her annoyance, Long Jun winked at her! He winked while grey scales still covered his face!
"Really? Is this how the men of this planet act? Forgetting their promises so quickly? All of you have no ball-" Lu Meili was not able to complete what she was about to say, as Long Cheng promptly covered her mouth.
He then leaned down, stopping on the side of her ears before whispering, "Nah. Do not continue what you are about to say. That is offensive, and I will take that as a challenge to prove to you that, males from our planet, do indeed have b.a.l.l.s." Long Cheng said hoa.r.s.ely, his tone bright with promise.
He removed his hand that was covering her mouth and s.h.i.+fted his gaze towards her face, studying her expression carefully.
The atmosphere around them was dense. It was something that Lu Meili was still trying to get used to. So she decided to step back a little, but Long Cheng would not let her by circling his arm around her waist.
Lu Meili could only hold his gaze with narrowed eyes, "I know you have b.a.l.l.s. I saw it earlier, remember?" She said, hissing under her breath.
Now she remembered why it did not sit well with her that, the one currently tied up was her. She felt restricted and Long Cheng was too unpredictable for her to handle around.
Who knew what Long Cheng will do, while still holding the enchanted rope on his hand?
"Yes, you did. Want to go somewhere to look at it again?" Long Cheng offered suggestively with his hoa.r.s.e voice. He spoke louder than necessary, which meant he was serious with his offer. This also meant the other s.h.i.+fter"s around him heard what he said. The coughing sound coming from them proved that.

Lu Meili gritted her teeth to try to calm down, "No. I respectfully decline your offer." She said.
"Huh? Why?"
"It does not look impressive at all." She answered with indifference.
"Not impressive?" Long Cheng laughed tauntingly. "How can you say that by just looking? It has other functions that you could enjoy-" he said with promise, but before he could continue, Lu Meili interrupted him by kicking him in the knee. Not enough to cause damage, but sufficient for him wince.
"Are you really supposed to be playing around now?" she asked suddenly.
Long Cheng shook his head and released a deep sigh. He only wanted to be with her alone so they could form their mating bond properly. Her anger that kept pus.h.i.+ng him away should end as soon as possible.
"Then what are we supposed to do?" he questioned instead.
Lu Meili spoke seriously, "Aren"t you supposed to stop the beasts from going out of the Thunder Forest ?"
Long Jun stiffened after hearing what Lu Meili had said. He s.h.i.+fted his gaze back to the direction the beasts were heading. He saw a dreadful omen as he realized that she was correct.
The beasts were heading to the unfixed seal of the Blue Area and would leave the Thunder Forest soon!
