Chapter 171 Success
Duan Qingchen's place wasn't far from the street where he had just bought the dessert, which is why Xiao Jiu was there.
"Would you like to try my cake? It's delicious!" Xiao Jiu couldn't wait to open her cake and take a bite. It really was just as she had imagined, sweet and delicious.
However, she gave the strawberry portion to Brother Mu Chen, but he didn't seem to want to eat it. Xiao Jiu tried to tempt him with her own cake so that he would open it and she could then suggest that they exchange it.
Duan Qingchen could see that Xiao Jiu longed for the cake in his hand. He deliberately didn't open it. When he saw that Xiao Jiu had already used the spoon he had used to eat cake to scoop a spoonful of his own cake and feed it to him, he knew that his little trick had succeeded.
He knew that Jiu Jiu wanted to try both cakes when they were at the dessert shop, but she might prefer the chocolate one. He said he was fine with either, which gave her the chance to get both.
Now he has the chance to be personally fed cake by the person he loves. Opportunities are earned. He may be young, but that doesn't mean he's an overly naive boy.
Growing up in a family like theirs, how many people are truly naive? It can only be said that his feelings for Jiu Jiu are genuine. He wouldn't scheme against Jiu Jiu for any other reason, but that doesn't mean he wouldn't use cunning to seek personal gain.
"How is it? Isn't it delicious?" The girl blinked her clear and beautiful eyes and said in a sweet voice.
"It really is delicious. Jiu Jiu, would you like to try mine and see if yours tastes better?" Duan Qingchen had achieved his goal. He and Jiu Jiu were eating cake with the same spoon, which meant that they had indirectly kissed each other.
Moreover, he didn't do this on purpose. Jiu Jiu fed it to him. There's only a two-word difference between an indirect kiss and a kiss. He believes he can eliminate that two-word difference sooner or later.
"Okay, okay," Xiao Jiu didn't realize that she had just kissed someone. She didn't pay much attention to the separation of men and women, and besides, there weren't that many rules and regulations in this world.
Xiao Jiu ate what she wanted and leaned back on the sofa contentedly. Now that she was full, she should think about how to solve the problem of absorbing yang energy.
"Jiujiu, your tail is so pretty, can I touch it?" Duan Qingchen thought Jiujiu's ears and tail were props, but the tail looked much more realistic than usual, and it felt really good to the touch.
When Xiao Jiu heard Mu Chen's question, she glanced at her tail. Her fluffy tail was swaying comfortably behind her. She hugged her tail to her chest. Why does she always like to touch her tail? Wait, why did she say "always"?
She rubbed her tail haphazardly a couple of times, finding it quite nice to the touch. No wonder they all liked her tail. She looked at her brother Mu Chen, who was sitting next to her with a longing expression.
It's just a tail. If he wants to touch it, let him. She's being very generous. Considering how good Brother Mu Chen is to her in the live stream and how he just bought her a small cake, she'll reluctantly let him touch it.
"Here, feel free to pet me." When Xiao Jiu was in Qingqiu, she was often held and stroked by her older brothers and sisters when she was in her original form, so she didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Besides, she was young, and no one thought to tell her that a fox's tail shouldn't be touched by others after it has grown up.
The servants are usually not in Duan Qingchen's house. He doesn't like having a lot of people around. The servants usually live in the building behind the house, and they only come to the main building when he needs something.
After receiving Jiu Jiu's permission, Duan Qingchen reached out to grab the tail that was swaying in front of him. As soon as he grasped it, he heard his beloved girl let out a soft moan.
"Hmm..." Xiao Jiu's face quickly turned red. Why did this sound sound so strange? Did she make it herself?
"Jiujiu, what's wrong?" Duan Qingchen didn't think about the tail he was holding. In his opinion, although the tail felt very real, it couldn't be real. What kind of good person would have a tail? This must be a joke.
"It's a little strange." It wasn't the first time Xiao Jiu had been pulled by the tail, but this time it was so different. She felt a tingling sensation where Brother Mu Chen's hand was holding her, and her heart was itchy. She wanted to vent something.
"What's strange?" Duan Qingchen lowered his head, standing very close. The girl's soft moan had just elicited a reaction from him that no one else could. He was afraid of being discovered by the girl, but he was also afraid that she wouldn't. He was conflicted. The girl was right beside him, the girl he liked. How could he not feel anything?
But he and the girl have no relationship now; he is just one of her admirers, not the only one. He can't do anything to the girl, yet he wants to do something for her.
The girl was unaware of how much she wanted to possess him, seeing her every day and hearing her voice. He was no good person, yet he pretended to be a naive and sincere boy in front of her, afraid that she wouldn't like his true personality.
"Brother Mu Chen, you're standing a little too close?" Xiao Jiu reached out and pushed him back a bit. She felt that the distance was too close, and all she could smell was the boy's scent. She didn't like this feeling.
Moreover, her hand was holding her tail, which felt hot and tingly, and she didn't like it. She wanted to pull her tail back so he wouldn't touch it anymore.
Xiao Jiu snatched her tail back from Duan Qingchen's hand. "What's wrong, Jiu Jiu? Didn't you just say you'd let me touch it? Why won't you let me touch it now?"
Duan Qingchen didn't seem angry at being pushed away by the girl. It was as if his previous demeanor had never existed. He even asked Jiu Jiu in a childlike manner why she had taken back the tail that he had almost gotten his hands on.
"It doesn't feel right to you," Xiao Jiu said, hugging her tail and gently rubbing the spot where he had just touched her. It didn't feel the same as before. This was more like it; it must be because of Brother Mu Chen.
The girl's cheeks puffed out slightly, and her bright, beautiful eyes widened as if she had indeed done something wrong and offended the girl.
"It was my fault, I apologize." Duan Qingchen stared at the girl's soft, white cheeks, wanting to reach out and touch them. Xiao Jiu felt that Brother Mu Chen was different from how she felt during the online live stream. There was an indescribable feeling in reality that made her feel a little dangerous.
