The Male Hare's Restless Paws, the Female Hare's Dazed Eyes

The next morning, Lin Qing slowly woke up. Looking at Xiao Wu, who was still asleep in his arms, he gently brushed aside the strands of hair that had stuck to her cheeks after yesterday's intense encounter. He stroked her face, then finally couldn't resist kissing her forehead.

Perhaps Lin Qing's movements had been a little too large. Xiao Wu also hazily opened her eyes, rubbed them, and looked at Lin Qing.

"Good morning, Xiao Wu."

"M-Morning." Xiao Wu lowered her head, not daring to look at Lin Qing. Now, whenever she saw his face, she recalled last night's madness. She had thought that, with the advantage of being a Shapeshifting Soul Beast, she would be able to thoroughly suppress Lin Qing. In the end, however, she was the one who had been suppressed.

Xiao Wu had never imagined that Lin Qing's stamina would be so terrifying. It had not ended until dawn. If Lin Qing had not shown mercy at the end, she feared she would have passed out on the spot.

Even now, Xiao Wu could still feel sore and aching all over.

Seeing Xiao Wu lower her head and avoid looking at him, Lin Qing could not help teasing her. "What's wrong, Xiao Wu? Weren't you pretty bold last night? Why don't you dare look at me now?"

Lin Qing pinched Xiao Wu's chin with his right hand and turned her face toward him. "Who was the one who pushed me down first last night? And who was the one sitting on top of me, boldly declaring that she would suppress me?"

"Hey! Bad Lin Qing, stop talking!" Xiao Wu was embarrassed by his words and could only wave her little fists and pound his chest.

Perhaps Xiao Wu's movements were a little too vigorous as she hit Lin Qing, causing what lay beneath the blanket to be exposed. It swayed before Lin Qing's eyes, stirring up his desire once more.

Xiao Wu also felt something hot pressing against her from below. Her hands dropped, and her expression stiffened. "Lin Qing, you're not going again, are you? It's daytime!"

"Xiao Wu, what nonsense are you talking about? Morning is exactly the time for morning exercise!" Then Lin Qing threw back the blanket and turned over, suppressing Xiao Wu once more...

Two hours later, Lin Qing finished his morning exercise, got out of bed, and put on his clothes. He gently kissed Xiao Wu's forehead. "Xiao Wu, rest for a while. I'll go buy you breakfast."

Xiao Wu, lying in bed, rolled her eyes at Lin Qing without saying anything. She did not even have the strength to speak anymore.

Seeing that Xiao Wu truly seemed exhausted, Lin Qing stopped teasing her and left the room directly.

Although Lin Qing had left Xiao Wu alone, he had placed a potted Blue Silver Grass plant on the bedside table. He had gotten it from Ah Yin so that he could observe Xiao Wu's condition through Ah Yin at any time. This potted Blue Silver Grass could also serve as a node, allowing him to quickly return to Xiao Wu's side.

After opening the door and stepping out, he saw Zhu Zhuqing, who had also just left her room. The instant Zhu Zhuqing saw Lin Qing, she turned her head away. Looking closely, one could see two rosy clouds already blooming on her cheeks.

"Morning, Zhuqing." Upon seeing Zhu Zhuqing, Lin Qing greeted her warmly.

"Morning..." Zhu Zhuqing merely replied indifferently.

Seeing Zhu Zhuqing walking ahead with her back to him, Lin Qing found it strange and quickly stepped forward, wanting to ask what had happened.

"Zhuqing, why do you have dark circles under your eyes?" Lin Qing's focus was clearly somewhat different. He failed to notice the blush that had lingered on Zhu Zhuqing's face, but he did notice the faint dark circles around her eyes.

"It's nothing. I just didn't sleep very well last night," Zhu Zhuqing replied.

"Didn't sleep well? Was the bed uncomfortable? I thought it was pretty comfortable to sleep in. Are you not used to it?"

Hearing Lin Qing fire off a string of questions, Zhu Zhuqing seemed to recall the sounds that had continued until dawn last night, and her cheeks flushed crimson.

"Zhuqing, why is your face so red..." Lin Qing had barely asked before he already knew the answer.

Damn! Is this hotel's soundproofing really that bad?! After thinking of the reason, Lin Qing immediately cursed the hotel's soundproofing in his heart.

After that, the two walked side by side, neither of them saying a word.

Once outside the hotel, Lin Qing and Zhu Zhuqing found a restaurant and ate breakfast together before both returning to the hotel.

"Zhuqing, what are your plans next?" Lin Qing asked.

After all, Zhu Zhuqing's original purpose had been to find Dai Mubai. Now that she had completely fallen out with him, with Zhu Zhuqing's personality, there was no way she would humbly apologize to Dai Mubai and seek his forgiveness. Of course, Zhu Zhuqing no longer had the slightest feelings for Dai Mubai either.

"Before coming to Suotuo City, I heard that there was an academy here that only taught monsters. I don't know what to do next anyway, so I plan to apply there first and see whether that academy can make me stronger," Zhu Zhuqing said.

Zhu Zhuqing had learned of this academy, which claimed to accept only monsters, while asking around about Dai Mubai's whereabouts in the Star Luo Empire. Some rumors about the academy had also naturally reached her ears.

"Is that so? Perfect. Xiao Wu and I originally came here to join that monster academy called Shrek. We can go together when the time comes." Lin Qing took the opportunity to invite her.

"Alright," Zhu Zhuqing replied.

After the two made their arrangement, Lin Qing returned to the room with the packed breakfast.

Back in the hotel room, there was an outer room and an inner room, separated by an enormous folding screen. Lin Qing placed the packed breakfast on the small table in the outer room before walking into the inner room.

Arriving beside the bed, Lin Qing looked at Xiao Wu, who was still catching up on sleep. He bent down slightly, reached beneath the blanket, gently patted Xiao Wu's butt, and whispered into her ear, "Xiao Wu, wake up. I brought breakfast back for you."

At last, under Lin Qing's calls, Xiao Wu slowly woke up. She rubbed her eyes before opening her dazed gaze.

Looking at Xiao Wu's dazed eyes, Lin Qing could not help recalling last night and this morning's madness. Thinking of last night's scene, a line flashed through his mind: Truly, the male hare's paws were restless, while the female hare's eyes were dazed!

Xiao Wu sat up, and the blanket slipped down with her movement. She yawned, becoming a little more alert. Seeing Lin Qing still watching her, Xiao Wu pointed beyond the folding screen. "Lin Qing, get out. I need to get dressed!"

"Why? Xiao Wu, I've seen it all already, so there's no need to avoid it, right?" Suddenly, inspiration struck Lin Qing, and he thought of a good idea. "Xiao Wu, look, you were exhausted last night and this morning. Let me dress you."

"No!" Xiao Wu's pretty face reddened slightly. "Don't try anything. Get out first. I can dress myself!"

Seeing Lin Qing's sly expression, Xiao Wu immediately felt that he could not possibly be up to anything good. To avoid being tormented by Lin Qing again, she could only firmly demand that he leave. Otherwise, if Lin Qing became interested again, she would not be able to withstand it.

Seeing Xiao Wu so resolute, Lin Qing was somewhat disappointed and could only leave dejectedly.

Actually, Lin Qing had not wanted to be this way. Although he had amassed enormous wealth through his own efforts in his previous life and had seen quite a few women, he had never truly touched a woman, nor did he have any biological children of his own.

Later, Lin Qing adopted a daughter from an orphanage and named her Lin Kexin. However, before he could watch his daughter grow up, Immortal Lord Dayun sent him to Douluo Continent during the year she took her college entrance exams. Fortunately, Lin Qing had already made a will, leaving all his inheritance to his daughter after his death.

And for Lin Qing, who had touched a woman for the first time across both lives, he had developed a taste for it. From time to time, he could not help certain physiological reactions.

Fortunately, once Xiao Wu had gotten dressed, there was no longer any problem.

"Alright, Lin Qing, come in."

Hearing Xiao Wu's voice, Lin Qing walked in. He saw Xiao Wu already seated before the dressing table, holding a wooden comb.

"Lin Qing, comb my hair." Xiao Wu saw Lin Qing arrive behind her through the mirror and handed him the comb.

Lin Qing took the wooden comb and began combing Xiao Wu's hair, which had become somewhat messy after their intense activity.

"Lin Qing, do you know why I asked you to comb my hair?" Xiao Wu suddenly asked.

"Why?" Lin Qing roughly knew the reason, but he still chose to listen to Xiao Wu say it herself.

"This comb was given to me by my mother. She said that when I met someone I could entrust my life to, I should give him this comb and let him comb my hair. And now, I've met him," Xiao Wu said.

"Are you confessing to me?" Lin Qing joked.

"Then how are you going to respond to my confession?" Xiao Wu followed along with the joke.

Lin Qing stopped moving and stepped to Xiao Wu's side. He cupped her cheek and gently kissed her lips. "I'll comb your hair for the rest of my life."

After combing her hair, Lin Qing and Xiao Wu went to the outer room. Of course, before leaving, Lin Qing put away the bedsheet, white save for a patch of crimson. After all, it bore the blood from Xiao Wu's first time, making it quite meaningful as a keepsake.
