This was the first time he felt compassion for a living being.
He couldn’t bear to let go.
Jin’s breathing became heavy, his thoughts were in turmoil, and he even ignored the strange sensation in his body.
He was sleepless for most of the night.
He sat quietly and thought for a very, very long time.
Gradually, Jin seemed to slowly understand his own feelings.
He seemed... to have developed a different kind of emotion for this female.
Is it the kind of emotion a male has for a female?
Has he... fallen for her?
When this thought emerged, Jin’s breath paused. Confusion, puzzlement, and a hint of struggle flashed in his eyes.
He had never thought he would develop any relationship with a female. After all, who would like someone like him, a monster who might go crazy at any time? How could a being rejected by the world possibly form a family with a female like a normal male...
He inhaled the faint scent on her body, licked the itching tip of his teeth, his fingers on the side twitched, but he ultimately did nothing.
In the latter half of the night, the weather grew colder. The living conditions here were simple, there wasn’t even a heater, and the air was tinged with a chill.
The young female wrapped herself in the quilt like a rice dumpling, only half of her rosy white face was exposed.
Although they were on the same bed, it felt like a world of ice and fire.
The quilt on her side was cool to the touch, while Jin’s side was warm and cozy. In her sleep, the female unconsciously moved a little closer to him.
Jin couldn’t help but chuckle softly, tossing the redundant pillow to the side, he turned over, stretched his long arm, and gently drew the young female into his embrace.
The bed creaked lightly with his movements.
"Mm..."
Shen Tang woke up in a daze.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she was faced with a man’s solid chest.
Her eyes widened immediately, her mind cleared completely, and she instinctively raised her head.
With a "bang," she bumped into the man’s chin.
"Ouch..." she gasped from the pain.
The System, afraid she wouldn’t believe it, projected the earlier scene into her mind.
After seeing the truth, and then looking at the man’s face displaying "I don’t know anything," Shen Tang was instantly overwhelmed with anger. This guy could even shift the blame, calling the thief to catch the thief!
Just as she was about to retort, the System suddenly sternly warned: [Host, something’s wrong, someone is approaching outside, it seems they are coming for you two!]
Jin also sharply sensed the shadow that flickered past the window. The playful smile on his face immediately retracted, his expression turned stern. He swiftly pulled Shen Tang into his embrace, his thin lips close to her ear, his voice raspy and low, "Don’t move, don’t make a sound."
His voice was light, originally somewhat hoarse, and now, close to her ear, sent waves of tingling through her.
His warm breath brushed past her ear and neck, making her ear roots burn. Shen Tang unconsciously swallowed.
She nestled in his embrace, half her face against his chest, her hands instinctively wrapped around his waist. Beneath her hands were taut, rock-solid muscles, scorching hot, making her breath a bit chaotic.
Shen Tang blinked, her gaze fell on his moving Adam’s apple, and the indentation of his collarbone beneath the messy collar. His shallow wheat-colored skin gleamed like honey under the light...
No, no, what am I thinking! There are assassins outside!
Shen Tang quickly pushed aside the chaotic thoughts and closed her eyes, feigning sleep.
Yet Jin clearly felt her lashes, like tiny brushes, lightly fluttering against the side of his neck, making his breath grow heavier.
But now was not the time to be distracted. The shadow outside drew closer, he too closed his eyes, pretending to be asleep.
