Shall I Carry You Over?

"Clang-clang-dong-dong," the electronic chime rang in his mind.

It was the notification sound for reader tips within the system.

Readers usually only tipped when they were deeply engrossed in the plot and overwhelmed with excitement.

According to the tipping system, tips accumulated points, and once the points reached a certain threshold, rewards would be distributed at random.

As for what the rewards were, Xiao Qinghe had never seen them.

That wasn't the point.

The point was!

Had the readers forgotten that Every Handsome Man Spoils Me was a dog-blooded Mary Sue romance novel?!

What was there to get excited about watching one man suck another man's chest!

"Little brother, no offense..." Xiao Qinghe braced himself, reaching out blindly like a blind man feeling an elephant, and touched a patch of delicate skin.

The touch was silky and burning hot, accompanied by a sudden tensing.

A man's touch must have felt truly repulsive to him, right?

Big bro, I don't want to touch a man either!

Xiao Qinghe was on the verge of tears, unable to see anything and forced to grope around clumsily.

"Where are you touching?" The youth's tone was gloomy and teeth-gritting, and the cold sword pressed against Xiao Qinghe's neck dug in deeply by a fraction.

Xiao Qinghe didn't even know where to put his hands, and in his panic, he didn't know what he had pressed.

"Ngh..."

He only heard the youth grunt softly, his body twitching violently as if in extreme pain, his voice even distorted. "Are you trying to save me, or take my life!"

As it turned out, he had pressed right against his wound.

It was located on the lower abdomen.

Xiao Qinghe's head felt ready to explode.

Sucking on the lower abdomen was no better than sucking on the chest!

[Ding-dong! Ding-dong! Ding-dong!]

The tipping notifications came as densely as a torrential downpour.

The readers had all gone wild.

Yet what on earth was there to get excited about here!

Xiao Qinghe, a hardcore straight man, felt either the readers had gone crazy or he was about to die, because his neck had gone cold.

Xie Jun was giving off serious murder vibes!

"Wait! That was an accident just now, I'll suck out the poisonous blood for you right now!" Not daring to delay, Xiao Qinghe charged forward to meet the man, finally accurately capturing the wound on the youth's abdomen with his mouth.

The youth's body tensed, whether from the man's touch or because the venom was acting up.

Xiao Qinghe couldn't care about any of that, sucking and spitting until he felt the blood in his mouth no longer taste fishy and foul, leaving only a pure, bloody metallic tang.

The youth's stiff body gradually grew weak and limp, and finally, after the last mouthful of poisonous blood was sucked out, his body went soft and he collapsed against the stone wall.

With his eyes blindfolded, Xiao Qinghe couldn't see what state he was in, and simply pulled his hand instinctively, giving a tug.

The youth's limp body fell toward him, crashing straight into his arms.

Xiao Qinghe quickly raised both hands to show his innocence.

I can't see.

Don't blame me.

"Let go!" Xie Jun gritted his teeth.

Of course Xiao Qinghe couldn't, because the system's bizarre task wasn't finished yet. "I am by no means trying to take advantage of you, it's just that your body temperature is excessively high, and I need to use my body heat to cool you down."

This reason sounded utterly bizarre the moment it was spoken.

"Shameless!" The youth naturally didn't believe him and tried to struggle, yet his whole body was weak and powerless, completely unable to move, leaving him able only to protest with words, "Shameless scoundrel!"

Xiao Qinghe didn't move an inch, listening to the youth's scolding with his ears while cursing the Hellish System a hundred times in his heart.

As he cursed, his body grew stiffer and stiffer.

The youth in his arms was burning hot and slightly curled up, his smooth, delicate skin inadvertently brushing against his chest.

Who could withstand this?

Xiao Qinghe rejoiced that he was blindfolded and couldn't see anything; otherwise, if he had laid eyes on the alluring and breathtaking scenery in his arms, let alone whether he could withstand it, Xie Jun would probably have gouged his eyes out first.

Xie Jun's body trembled slightly.

The poisonous blood had been sucked out, but the residual venom remained uncleansed, and the blood throughout his body was still boiling.

Hot.

A heat akin to being roasted all over.

Yet Xiao Qinghe's body seemed to emit an alluring coolness, making him involuntarily...

The hand he reached out stopped abruptly the moment before it touched Xiao Qinghe's shoulder. Realizing that he actually wanted to touch Xiao Qinghe, the youth's face turned ashen, and he said harshly, "How much longer are you going to press against me? There is an ice spring nearby!"

Xiao Qinghe didn't move.

He thought the other person would move.

After a dozen seconds passed and he found the other person still leaning against his arms, he finally realized that the residual venom hadn't cleared, and the other's body probably lacked the strength to move.

He hesitated. "Shall I carry you over?"

"Shameless!"

"..."

Xiao Qinghe stopped moving.

Then he would just continue using his body heat to cool him down; after all, they were both men, so there was nothing to be embarrassed about.

The youth's face turned even darker, clearly finding it even more intolerable to lean in Xiao Qinghe's arms like a woman. He said with a chilling voice, "What are you dallying for? Take me over!"

A man's temper really changed on a dime.

"Offense taken." The corner of Xiao Qinghe's mouth twitched as he silently picked the person up, but unable to see the direction, he asked, "Please, little brother, point the way to the ice spring."

The youth's body tightened.

A man's touch ought to have disgusted him immensely, but Xiao Qinghe seemed somewhat different.

He was blindfolded and didn't look at him with lewd and obscene gazes like those shameless scoundrels. Even while pressing his body against his, he strictly observed propriety at all times, never crossing the line by even a fraction.

On the youth's ambiguously gendered, stunningly beautiful face, his expression shifted again and again until he finally said, "Walk fifty steps to the left."

The wind inside the cave had stopped at some unknown point.

It was very quiet.

Only the sound of Xiao Qinghe's footsteps echoed.

The youth raised his head, his cold and sharp gaze fixing on Xiao Qinghe's face.

Xiao Qinghe was young, with handsome and striking features, naturally exuding an aura of noble and upright integrity that easily stirred favorable impressions in others.

Xiao Qinghe?

Why had the Demon-Slaying Sect never heard of this person?

"Xiao Qinghe, what exactly are you plotting?" The youth never let down his guard.

His plot was to see that he was the prospective male protagonist and hug his stout thighs, of course.

That was something he absolutely could not say out there.

Xiao Qinghe maintained a righteous expression. "Seeing injustice on the road, I perform a good deed every day."

Right as he finished speaking, his foot kicked against something unknown, and he stumbled violently, causing both of them to crash down toward the ground.

As bad luck would have it, he landed right on top of Xie Jun.

Inadvertently, his lips seemed to graze against something.

A dragonfly skimming the water, fleeting in an instant.

The warm and soft sensation was clearly...

"I'll kill you!" The youth's tone was gloomy, and using what little force he could muster, he pressed his long sword against Xiao Qinghe's throat. The next second-

"Clang."

The long sword fell to the ground.

With the residual venom still uncleansed, he wasn't even capable of lifting a sword.

Xiao Qinghe narrowly salvaged his little life, but he really didn't want to die.

Intuition told him that the safety was only temporary, and once Xie Jun recovered his strength, he would definitely settle accounts.

So, the question arose.

If he ran away now, Xie Jun would probably be burned into a fool by the blazing passion of the poison, meaning the future King of the Demon Realm would be as good as a goner, which meant he wouldn't be able to latch onto a golden thigh, and he would likely end up dying a corpse without an intact limb just like the original Xiao Qinghe.

If he didn't run away, once Xie Jun's residual venom dispersed, he would take his dog life in a split second.

Whether he saved him or not, he was going to die either way.

The only way out was to deny it to the death!

"Little brother, are you alright? I seemed to have bumped into a rock just now, I didn't hit you, did I?" On the surface, Xiao Qinghe looked calm, but inwardly he was panicked to death. Then, enduring the youth's explosive aura of frost, he hastily picked the person up and bolted straight for the ice spring. "Soak for half an hour and you'll recover. Soak slowly, I'm off!"

"Who allowed you to leave?"
