Chapter 46: Unable to Resist
“Hu… hug?”
Nie Qing’s face instantly turned red.
Looking at Ye Shu’s sincere expression, she swallowed hard, her palms breaking out in a cold sweat.
Yet, as if drawn by some unspoken urge, her body leaned forward slightly.
In the dreams she had been having recently, she had hugged Ye Shu many times. But those dream hugs… well, let’s just say they didn’t stay innocent for long. They always took a turn for the embarrassing, making her blush just thinking about it.
“Senior Sister, are you serious? You can’t even do something like this? And you talk about wanting to have a relationship with me!”
Ye Shu opened his eyes, seeing her hesitant demeanor, and couldn’t help but let a teasing edge creep into his voice.
“Me? Afraid of you?”
She stammered, her words faltering. Just moments ago, she had been complaining about Ye Shu’s reluctance and indecisiveness, but now it was her turn to hesitate.
After all, she had only been talking big earlier.
When it came down to it, she was like a soldier sharpening their spear on the battlefield—completely unprepared and unsure whether to charge forward.
“I’m not afraid of you!”
Nie Qing seemed to make up her mind, her expression hardening as she took a deep breath and stepped forward, swaying slightly as she approached Ye Shu.
Until she was right in front of him.
She couldn’t move any further.
There he was, a handsome, strong, and youthful man standing right before her.
But this was her junior brother!
“Won’t anyone find out about this?”
She turned her head to look at the door, which was tightly shut.
Then she glanced at the window, its curtains drawn tight against prying eyes.
Still suspicious, she perked up her ears, straining to catch any sound from outside.
“Why are you being so wishy-washy?!”
“I don’t care anymore!”
Ye Shu couldn’t stand her paranoid behavior any longer. He stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her.
“Mmm…”
Nie Qing’s soft, supple body trembled slightly as the two of them embraced.
In that instant, a wave of mature hormones erupted between them.
The air was thick with their mingling scents—her alluring body fragrance and Ye Shu’s unique masculine aura blending together in an intoxicating mix.
“Ah!”
Nie Qing’s face flushed a deep, fiery red, her lips quivering like a restless wave, her eyes glazing over as if caught in a dizzying spin. She was on the verge of passing out from the overwhelming sensation.
At this moment, though she hadn’t fainted, she felt even more disoriented than if she had. Seeing his handsome face so close to hers, and feeling his strong, vice-like arms holding her tightly, she felt as if there was no escape. Her heart raced like a frantic deer trying to leap out of her chest.
She was suffocating!
She was really being held by a man!
And she couldn’t move, feeling completely at his mercy.
“Good!”
Ye Shu’s breathing grew rapid as well. He wasn’t calm either, feeling the pressure of her ample bosom against him.
That soft, white flesh was truly breathtaking.
The scent emanating from her was more intoxicating than the finest wine, making him want to take a deep breath just to savor her deliciousness.
So soft! So incredibly soft!
He didn’t want to let go of this warm embrace.
He wished he could lose himself in it forever, surrendering his entire being to her, letting her do as she pleased.
But just as he was about to run out of breath, Nie Qing suddenly let out a startled cry.
“Junior Brother, are you trying to assassinate me?!”
She seemed to feel an alarming pressure against her and pushed Ye Shu away, her eyes widening with shock as she jabbed a finger at him.
“Ah, this…”
Ye Shu stumbled back a few steps. Looking down, he felt an unusual firmness in his body and immediately understood. An awkward expression appeared on his face.
“Senior Sister, it’s not what you think! I didn’t mean to—”
“Bullshit! You clearly did! Are you hiding some kind of weapon, trying to take my life?!”
Nie Qing gritted her teeth, her tone resolute.
Ye Shu quickly waved his hands. “Senior Sister, you’ve got it all wrong! It’s not what you’re imagining!”
“Think about it—what’s the fundamental difference between you and me?”
“Difference?”
She fell into thought, then suddenly her eyes widened, her face flushing with embarrassment as she turned away, unable to look at Ye Shu directly.
She muttered under her breath, “So impressive… I underestimated you…”
“Heh heh!”
Ye Shu scratched his head awkwardly, not needing to explain further. Some things were better understood through personal experience.
Seeing that Nie Qing’s expression had softened, he tentatively asked, “Senior Sister, how are you feeling now?”
Hearing this, Nie Qing’s expression changed.
She wanted to scold him for not asking her permission before hugging her.
But as she touched her own firm chest, she felt a sense of relief, even satisfaction.
What was going on?
Could it be that being close to him helped ease her inner demons?
She couldn’t help but think this way.
“It’s… not bad,” Nie Qing nodded, unable to deny that it had indeed been effective.
“That’s good!”
Ye Shu let out a sigh of relief.
A hug wasn’t too outrageous, and if it could calm Senior Sister Nie Qing’s restless heart, it was a worthwhile trade.
Even if it reached Master Luo Jiuyan’s ears, it wouldn’t be considered a heinous crime!
The key was, Nie Qing wouldn’t let him do anything else!
She was the one who had pushed him into this situation, but when it came down to it, she was the one who got scared.
“Seems like she’s all talk,” Ye Shu thought to himself, shaking his head at her.
Perhaps feeling a bit better, Nie Qing’s expression softened.
But she was still embarrassed by what had just happened and wanted to leave.
Before leaving, she turned to Ye Shu and said, “Remember, you must never speak of today’s events to anyone!”
“Of course.”
Ye Shu actually wanted to beg her not to spread the news either. If this got back to Master Luo Jiuyan, he’d be in deep trouble.
“Also, from now on, you must cooperate with me regarding my inner demons!” she added.
She felt that the current sense of calm was only temporary.
There was no telling when her inner demons would act up again.
She would inevitably have to seek him out for more… private transactions.
What a great opportunity!
Ye Shu was overjoyed.
To be able to take advantage of Senior Sister under the guise of treating her inner demons—wasn’t that a fantastic deal?
But he couldn’t say that out loud. Instead, he put on a reluctant expression and said, “Alright, I’ll do my best.”
“You’re taking advantage of me and still acting coy!”
Nie Qing shot him a glare, thinking to herself that he hadn’t been so reserved earlier, when he seemed like he wanted to melt into her!
Now he’s pretending to be shy? What a shameless man!
But she didn’t say any of this out loud, as she still needed Ye Shu’s help.
In the future, when her condition flared up, she could always come to him for treatment.
“That’s it then.”
There was nothing more to say.
Nie Qing gave him one last complicated look before transforming into a red streak of light and flying away.
Watching her graceful figure disappear into the distance, Ye Shu couldn’t help but smile.
“This is going to be fun!”
The senior sister who had once hunted him down had now developed feelings for him and wanted to maintain that kind of relationship…
How interesting!
