Hu Liena Was a Fox, All Right, with an Enchanting Scent

Just listen to her. What kind of thing was that to say?

She had come to him for treatment, but if he asked too many questions, she would refuse it?

Cao Mengde thought.

Those words were no threat to him at all.

He couldn't resist teasing her.

"Listening to you speak was truly better than listening to you speak."

Hu Liena was mortified.

Because of a certain relationship between her and Cao Mengde, she had lost her composure for a moment and said something ridiculous.

She immediately changed the subject and straightened her back.

She said, somewhat anxiously.

"Are you going to treat me or not?"

Cao Mengde shrugged. "If anyone else dared speak to me like that, I'd throw him out at once. Only you dare shout at me like that. What can I do? You're my fiancée, after all."

It was the first time Hu Liena had heard Cao Mengde say something intimate to her face.

Her pretty face instantly turned red.

"Wh-who's your fiancée? Stop talking nonsense."

Seeing that Hu Liena still wanted to argue.

Cao Mengde was greatly surprised.

"What?"

"Didn't His Holiness the Pope mention our marriage?"

"Oh, so Bibi Dong lied to me again. I'm going to find her and get to the bottom of this."

As he spoke.

Cao Mengde headed for the door.

Even though it was late at night and all was quiet, he was going to find Bibi Dong.

They had clearly agreed that she would give Hu Liena to him in marriage.

If not for Bibi Dong's promise, he would have planted a Gu in Hu Liena and taken advantage of her long ago.

Wasn't it because he could do things openly.

That he had put it off until now?

"Stop right there!"

Hu Liena hurriedly called Cao Mengde to a halt.

Now that things had come to this.

She had nothing to hide.

"Teacher told me about it. We'll pick an auspicious day and, well..."

"But that's not why I came to see you. I'm sick."

One thing was one thing, and another was another.

Hu Liena had not come for romance.

Hearing that.

Cao Mengde's gloomy mood improved.

So Bibi Dong hadn't lied to him. That was good.

"All right, come into the consultation room."

Hu Liena followed Cao Mengde, and as soon as she entered the consultation room.

She told him about her condition of her own accord.

"Tonight, while I was cultivating, my tail started shedding..."

Cao Mengde feigned surprise and teased her on the spot. "You have a tail?"

Hu Liena blushed and rolled her eyes at Cao Mengde.

"The tail on my Martial Soul."

As she spoke.

She summoned her Martial Soul and was possessed by the fox.

A fluffy pink tail appeared behind her.

Cao Mengde looked closely.

The hair on the tail was indeed falling out from time to time.

But to be fair, that tail was truly sexy, truly enchanting.

"Can you treat it?" Hu Liena asked.

"Of course I can. Let me touch it, and it'll get better."

At once.

Hu Liena's expression darkened.

"Shameless! What are you trying to do?"

Such intimate words inevitably set Hu Liena's imagination running wild.

Could this Cao Mengde be a big pervert?

Had he fallen for her simply because he coveted her beauty?

"If I don't touch your tail, how am I supposed to treat you?"

"I'm a Healing System deity. I have to touch the part of the patient that's sick."

Once she came to her senses.

Hu Liena was slightly taken aback. So Cao Mengde wasn't touching her tail to take advantage of her, but as a means of treatment. She had been overthinking it.

"Then go ahead and touch it."

Cao Mengde pointed to the sofa. "Sit down."

After Hu Liena sat on the sofa.

He sat down beside her.

Without another word, he pulled the fluffy tail into his hand and began stroking it.

It was smooth and pleasant to the touch.

The constant tickling against his palm made Cao Mengde's heart itch along with it.

"Nana..."

"Does this all feel very sudden to you?"

"Maybe this is love at first sight. I've liked you ever since you first appeared at Rejuvenation Hall."

The sudden talk of love.

Left Hu Liena at a loss.

But their marriage had already been settled by her teacher. Hu Liena knew there was no escaping it and could only face it.

She turned her blushing face away.

"I don't believe you."

"If you were interested in me from the first time we met, why did you scold me?"

"You said I had no manners and didn't even understand the basics of dealing with people."

That incident.

Hu Liena remembered it clearly.

That day.

She had come to Rejuvenation Hall to find Cao Mengde while searching for a Healing System Soul Master for her teacher.

Hadn't she just been a little overbearing?

Yet Cao Mengde had suppressed her with a Titled Douluo's pressure and humiliated her with his words.

Hearing Hu Liena's question.

Cao Mengde spoke frankly.

"Weren't you responsible too?"

"Who told you to be so used to holding your head high and looking down on everyone? If I hadn't used some forceful methods, could I have left a deep impression on you?"

Hu Liena said nothing.

That was true.

She naturally looked down on the weak.

Only the strong could catch her attention.

"I came to you for treatment." To avoid the embarrassment brought on by talk of love, Hu Liena changed the subject.

However.

Cao Mengde replied in kind.

"I know you came to me for treatment. Isn't that what I'm doing right now?"

As he stroked Hu Liena's tail.

His gaze kept wandering over her.

People said Hu Liena was a lovestruck fool too.

Fortunately, his appearance had stopped Tang San from defeating her. Would that lovestruck foolishness be redirected toward him instead?

"Nana, I still haven't heard you say with your own mouth that you'll marry me."

Hu Liena had not spent much time with Cao Mengde.

Even their marriage.

Was being arranged by Bibi Dong as an intermediary.

Now that she was facing Cao Mengde in person, Hu Liena's heart was racing.

"Who said I wanted to marry you?"

"I... I'm only doing it for Teacher. Teacher gave an order, and her disciple wouldn't dare disobey."

What a fine "Teacher gave an order, and her disciple wouldn't dare disobey."

Cao Mengde could tell.

Hu Liena was being reserved. She was a girl, after all, so it was understandable.

Suddenly.

Cao Mengde released Hu Liena's tail.

He cupped that cold yet enchanting face and kissed her with the speed of lightning, too fast to cover one's ears.

After all.

Bibi Dong had already given them a verbal betrothal.

He only had to use some kind of trick, and he could easily have Hu Liena.

Hu Liena's eyes widened.

She had never imagined Cao Mengde could be this impatient.

"Mmph..."

She struggled with all her strength.

But her small, delicate body could not budge Cao Mengde at all.

Only after Cao Mengde had kissed his fill did he reluctantly let go, and Hu Liena was free again.

"Cao Mengde, you're vile."

Hu Liena spat the words at him, sprang up from the sofa, and made to leave.

Unexpectedly.

She had only just stood up.

When Cao Mengde seized her wrist and pulled her forcefully into his arms.

Hu Liena lost her balance, her whole body falling forward against Cao Mengde's chest.

"Cao Mengde, let go of me! What exactly are you trying to do?"

Hu Liena's foxlike scent immediately filled Cao Mengde's mouth and nose, throwing his mind into chaos and leaving him unable to stop.

"Nana, listen to me."

"I'm willing to make you a promise."
