That adorable look of his. .h.i.t Qiu Lili. “Who knows about the future? Don’t be too confident.”
Lin Kui thought the cute look move would soften the girl, but to his surprise, it didn’t work as well as he had hoped. So, he dropped his paw and moved to her side, then leaned his body against her and said, “From now on, you’re the only one that I care about. What do I need to say to make you believe me? Besides, the things between us have already come so far. Are you still going to leave me?”
Qiu Lili looked at him, seemingly struggling. However, deep down, she had given up fighting already.
Lin Kui coiled her hand with his fluffy tail and said, “Lili, promise me, don’t leave me.”
“Ahyaya, just say yes to him. Qiu Lili, haven’t you always been decisive? Why are you hesitating now? I’m out of patience!” Another voice was suddenly heard. The two quickly turned and saw someone stick her head out from behind another building. That was Yun Meng looking at the two with a look of anxiety.
“You! When did you get here?” Qiu Lili gave a start when she saw Yun Meng and spoke out loud without thinking. Lin Kui turned to Yun Meng and sat down beside Qiu Lili, then said, “Oh, she’s been here for a while.”
“Eh? Can you sense me? I was invisible!” Yun Meng was surprised to see Lin Kui react so calmly. Normally, no one was able to sense her when she turned invisible. Did Lin Kui have some kind of special ability that allowed him to sense her presence?
“It’s probably because we have the same kind of power. I think I can sense you faintly,” Lin Kui raised a paw and rubbed his panther face.
The two of them both possessed animal power. It was like how animals sensed each other. He wasn’t sure who was hiding nearby; he just sensed a living being vaguely. That living being didn’t show any hostility, so he didn’t do anything about it.
After all, Qiu Lili was more important to him at that moment.
Yun Meng moved to Qiu Lili’s side, then leaned forward and sniffed at her. Then, she pinched her nose with a hand and made a step backward as she said, “Oh my, you’re covered in this panther’s scent! I can’t believe that you two have become so close already. I’m so surprised!”
“So, why are you guys still fighting since your relations.h.i.+p is so close already?” she continued.
Lin Kui raised a paw and said, “It’s because of her, not me.” After saying that, he pointed at Qiu Lili with that paw.
Qiu Lili slapped on that paw, then looked at Yun Meng and said, “This is between us. What are you doing here?”
Yun Meng shrugged, then crossed her arms and said, “Apparently, I’m here to watch the show! I was so anxious, so I decided to come out to interrupt you guys, haha…”
Earlier, she saw Qiu Lili hesitate all the time for an unknown reason. So, she lost her patience and decided to come out to disturb the two a little! Besides, since Lin Kui seemed to turn Qiu Lili into his girlfriend, she started to not like him a little.
However, since he was sincere, and the situation seemed to be good to Qiu Lili, and the latter seemed to like being with him, Yun Meng had to admit that she was happy to let the good thing happen, even though she was a little jealous of him.
“You’re just here to disturb us!” Qiu Lili rolled her eyes; she knew Yun Meng quite well. However, after being disturbed by Yun Meng, she managed to slowly calm herself down from the nervous and panicked feeling. She glanced at Lin Kui, who was sitting next to her, feeling purely happy.
“I’m just curious. Lin Kui, you’ve become a zombie already. Um… Do you still… have feelings?” Yun Meng asked another question, “I wouldn’t believe what you guys have done if I didn’t sense the scent you left on Lili!”
The straightforward question asked by Yun Meng made Lin Kui feel a little embarra.s.sed. Thankfully, he was in his panther shape and the embarra.s.sed look on his face wasn’t obvious. He was only turning his eyes from side to side.
“Eh-hem… Would you like to try it? I can’t guarantee that it’ll be work for you too. After all, it’s supposed to be effective for catamount only,” He pretended to be calm and answered Yun Meng’s question.
“Catamount?” Yun Meng didn’t know about the catmint. On hearing Lin Kui’s words, she looked at Lin Kui and Qiu Lili with confusion. However, in the next second, she felt that something wasn’t right. “No. No! I’m not gonna try it!”
Qiu Lili looked at her and said, “Alright, are you done here? Can you please leave? He and I, we aren’t finished yet.”
Yun Meng looked at her, then at Lin Kui. “Aren’t you finished? The result is pretty obvious, isn’t it?” she said, “Look how close you two are now? I think you should just go home with him to meet his family now.”
After saying that, she turned and leaped off the building.
After hearing what Yun Meng said, Qiu Lili turned back to look at Lin Kui. She found him standing quietly by her side, but she wasn’t feeling his presence as strongly as she did before. It seemed that they had gone back to the time when they enjoyed keeping each other company, but now, they had become closer than before.
Lin Kui did hear Yun Meng’s last sentence, so he looked at Qiu Lili and said, “You’ve met my sister long ago, but I still want to introduce you to her again… as my girlfriend.”
Qiu Lili felt as if her cheeks were turning warm. She wondered if that were an illusion. “Won’t that be too… soon?” she turned her face away and asked.
Lin Kui’s eyes glowed as he narrowed those panther eyes and smiled, “You’ve agreed? If you think now is too soon, we can go a few days later.”
“Oi, I haven’t said yes to you yet,” Qiu Lili quickly said to him.
Lin Kui squinted at her as he bared his sharp teeth in a grin, “So you tell me, when can we do that?”
He ignored Qiu Lili’s words. She was just being shy, and didn’t mean what she said.
“I… Let me think about it,” Qiu Lili glared at him a little grumpily, then leaped into the sky and flew back toward the base. Lin Kui watched her leave, then leaped off the building and followed her home.
…
Lin Qiao and Wu Chengyue spent a night in Huaxia Base. The next day, some Huaxia Base people came to inform them to go to the reception room and meet the other base leaders.
Si Kongchen, Lin Qiao and Lan Lu, who had seen each other not long ago and even fought a battle, greeted each other peacefully, as if what happened in the northwest was just a dream.
Si Kongchen handed out some materials to the other base leaders, then sat down and said, “This is the information we gathered about those underground creatures and the reports of our researches. These materials are showing you everything we know about them.”
Lin Qiao and the others carefully reach the materials he provided. The contents were actually quite detailed.
