"Brother, how about you change the way you address me?" Shen Qingqi hesitated as he looked at him. His appearance was a bit young and he hadn't fully grown yet, with a hint of baby fat. He was also good-looking.

Now, he had put on a pitiful appearance, making people want to hold him tightly in their arms and comfort him.

Bai Su really seemed to be stunned by his teasing behavior for a moment, then pursed her lips: he tucked Shen Qing into his sleeve.

"Pouting won't help either."

In the eager anticipation of Shen Qing's eyes, Bai Suzhen turned around and walked away, her white sleeves drawing out a dominant arc in the air.

"Hey, wait a minute--"

"I wasn't throwing a tantrum!"

Shen Qing expressed that I feel extremely aggrieved and wronged.

Watching Bai Su really disappear at the entrance of the cave, Shen Qing suddenly realized that he had never asked what this big monster's name was.

"......"

Damn it, Shen Qing, can you be any more stupid?!

The fact has proven that it is possible.

Shen Qing, covered in the white garments provided by Bai Suzhen, slept through the night. When he woke up the next day in a drowsy state, he realized that he didn't have any clothes to wear at all.

Shen Qing looked at the soft black clothes draped over him and felt a sense of desolation.

Bai Su's true height is probably around 1.85 meters, while Shen Qing's current height is at most 1.7 meters. So, to summarize, Bai Su's true coat is indeed a bit taller than Shen Qing.

Shen Qing held up that piece of clothing, feeling the contempt of a piece of clothing.

He silently wiped his face, feeling a bit mentally exhausted.

——Back in the day, I was also six feet tall! How did I shrink so much now?

As Shen Qing was feeling dissatisfied with her height, she silently put on Bai Suzhen's coat as a nightgown. At that moment, her gaze accidentally caught a glimpse of a white figure near the opening of the cave.

Bai Su really was wrapped in an unfamiliar coldness as she stepped into the cave; Shen Qing could clearly feel a chill.

Bai Suzhen calmly walked up to Shen Qing, her hands behind her back. Only then did she let them down, letting them hang at her sides.

"Brother..."

Shen Qing glanced at the clothes on his body and then at the original owner of the clothes. He felt a little guilty, but he didn't want to take off the clothes and return them to the man. After all, if he took them off, he would be completely naked.

Shen Qing, who didn't want to run naked, blinked her eyes and started to calculate secretly in her mind.

Seeing Shen Qing's expression of "I'm about to burst into black bubbles," Bai Su really smirked, raising an eyebrow and reaching into the sleeve of her left hand with her right hand. With a "whoosh" sound, a dark blue garment was pulled out from the sleeve and casually tossed towards Shen Qing by the man.

Shen Qing watched as Bai Su suddenly pulled out a piece of clothing, almost like performing magic. In the next moment, Shen Qing's face was inadvertently splattered with the clothing because she failed to dodge in time.

Shen Qing: ... Impressive, my brother.

"Thank you."

After carefully removing the clothes covering her head, Shen Qing, who possessed outstanding morals, sincerely expressed her gratitude before placing the garments on the stone bed. Subsequently, she proceeded to take off the clothes that belonged to Bai Su Zhen.

Watching Shen Qing messing with the messily folded clothes, Bai Su sighed and reached out to help Shen Qing straighten out the wrinkles he had caused. Bai Su did this effortlessly, considering Shen Qing as a child who didn't know how to dress properly. Helping him out was no big deal.

But for Shen Qing, he was a bit confused.

The moment Bai Suzhen approached, Shen Qing couldn't help but tense his muscles. He stood stiffly in place, watching as Bai Suzhen earnestly tidied his clothes, her eyes lowered. Her white eyelashes trembled gently, making her incredibly cute and soft.

The silver strands of hair fell smoothly in front of his eyes. Shen Qing felt his throat slightly dry. He blinked and pursed his lips. There was a faint, refreshing scent of herbs coming from the other person, not bitter or unpleasant, but rather, it smelled comforting.

Bai Su's movements were truly gentle, and those big hands were surprisingly skillful. In just a moment, they neatly arranged Shen Qing's messy clothes. Shen Qing felt as if those hands had brushed against her heart, like being gently tickled by a kitten's tail, causing a tingly and ticklish sensation.

Bang, bang...

My heart was pounding, with each beat growing louder, as if it would burst out of my chest any moment now.

Shen Qing licked his dry lips and raised his hands uncontrollably, quickly grabbing the hand that Bai Suzhen was tending to on his chest.

"...Hm?"

Bai Su was momentarily startled by his unexpected action. She glanced at the hand that he had grabbed, then raised her eyes to look at Shen Qing, deep in thought.

As soon as Shen Qing felt the gaze of Bai Suzhen, he belatedly realized what he had done. He stiffly lowered his head, still holding Bai Suzhen's large hand as if cradling it. Her hands were warmer than his, and there was already a warmth where their skin touched.

Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah what the f*ck what the f*ck what the f*ck is thisghost -

I actually unexpectedly flirted with a big monster, damn!

Japanese person, huh!

Shen Qing let go of his brush and expressionlessly shifted his gaze back to Bai Suzhen's face. Inside his heart, turmoil raged, but he steadfastly maintained a calm exterior, appearing cool and collected. Then, he blinked innocently at the man.

"I... I... I just..." Shen Qing awkwardly tried to explain, but he couldn't come up with a suitable reason. His mind was in a mess, like a burnt porridge with no good solution whatsoever.

Shen Qing: I really want to die.

Bai Su quietly watched him, serene and silent.

"I was wrong!" Unable to come up with any explanation, Shen Qing straightforwardly admitted her mistake.

"Being expressionless is indeed more suitable for hiding emotions. You can keep practicing." Bai Su really didn't mind Shen Qing's earlier action. To her, Shen Qing was just a little brat, a snake with a slight bird complex. It was normal for her to want to get closer to him.

Shen Qing was still unaware that he had been labeled as having a "chick fetish," and at this moment, he was caught up in the blow of the man's remark, "Practice some more."

Whenever Shen Qing gets particularly excited, he instinctively keeps a blank expression on his face, never being seen through before. But now, Bai Suzhen easily noticed it and even said, "Practice some more." Shen Qing felt his face burning and wished he could dig a hole and bury himself in it.

Shen Qing didn't even stop to think about it. How can one compare a thousand-year-old monster with a group of just adult teenagers?

Bai Su really looked at the other person's slightly tangled appearance, squinting her eyes slightly, and her gaze involuntarily softened a lot.

"Do you know how to use demon power?" Having admired enough, Bai Suzhen stopped teasing Shen Qing and changed the topic.

Shen Qing: ... Demon power... I just miraculously transformed into a human form, who knows how to use demon power, darn it!

Bai Su really felt more conflicted when she saw him like this. She let out a sigh, cupped Shen Qing's face, causing the other to slightly raise their head.

In Shen Qing's bewildered expression, Bai Su Zhen lowered her head and gently pressed her forehead against his, closing her eyes.

"Close your eyes."
