Clumsy Beast, Keep Your Paws Off novel Chapter 667

Chapter 667: Chapter 667: The More They Explained, the More Suspicious It Looked

Tu Yelang’s long ears instantly turned bright red. A few moments later, after confirming he was properly covered up, Lan Yue slowly opened her eyes.

The atmosphere between them immediately became awkward. Very, very awkward. Neither of them knew what to say next.

Then, Tu Yelang finally looked at her carefully, studying her features. The more he looked, the more familiar she seemed to be.

Suddenly, his eyes widened in recognition. "Wait. Are you Sister Qinglan’s younger sister?"

Lan Yue blinked, surprised. Then she nodded. "Yes. Su Qinglan is my elder sister."

Realization instantly dawned on Tu Yelang, and he clapped his hands together.

"So it’s really you!" He had heard rumors about her before.

Everyone in Dragon Beast City knew that the priestess’s second daughter was actually a very beautiful mermaid, and the city lord of Fox Beast City had come knocking on their doors, just for her.

But hearing about it and seeing it in person were two completely different things. This was his first time seeing a real mermaid.

His gaze unconsciously drifted down toward her beautiful blue tail. It shimmered beautifully beneath the crisp winter sunlight.

Without thinking, completely mesmerized, he reached out his hand. "Wow... so this is really..."

His finger lightly brushed against her smooth, cold fin.

Lan Yue instantly jerked backward, splashing the water. Her tail immediately disappeared behind her arms as she curled up. "You can’t touch a female’s tail!" Her face exploded in red again.

Tu Yelang froze, pulling his hand back as if he had been burned.

"Oh! Sorry! I was just curious! I didn’t mean to disrespect you!" Now his face was just as red as hers.

The atmosphere became even more awkward. The two sat there on the ice, staring in completely opposite directions. Neither dared to look at the other.

After a while, Tu Yelang let out a tight cough. Then he said seriously, "Little female, you really shouldn’t do this."

Lan Yue peeked at him. "Do what?"

"Sleeping in freezing water, not wearing enough clothes, and coming all the way out here alone," Tu Yelang listed, counting on his fingers. "What if something bad actually happened?"

Lan Yue puffed her cheeks out defiantly. "I told you, I wasn’t sleeping."

"You just admitted you were."

Lan Yue instantly choked on her words, unable to argue.

Tu Yelang continued, looking around the empty shore. "And where are your beast husbands? We should call them over to take you home safely."

The moment she heard that, Lan Yue nearly jumped out of her skin in a panic. "No!"

Tu Yelang blinked at her sudden shout. "No?"

"No!" Lan Yue shook her head frantically, her eyes wide with fear. "Don’t call them! If they find out I secretly came here and did this, I’ll never be allowed near the river again! They’ll lock me in the house!"

Tu Yelang imagined two furious, high-ranking beastmen arriving at the scene.

Then he imagined himself being caught sitting completely alone beside their soaking-wet, beautiful mate. His expression immediately changed, a cold sweat breaking out on his neck.

"Actually..." Tu Yelang cleared his throat quickly. "Maybe we don’t need to call them right now."

Both of them looked at each other, shared a moment of mutual panic, and then immediately looked away again.

Another heavy, awkward silence followed.

At that exact moment...
