Help! The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama!

Chapter 412: Chapter 403: You’ve Never Said Such Sweet Words to Me!

Lu Xiao’s slender fingers gently unbuttoned the first button, the action tender yet unyieldingly commanding.

His breath gradually became erratic.

A trace of profound aggression tinted the deep blue-grey in his eyes.

Just at this moment, a mountain breeze passed through the woods, and Shen Tang hugged her arms tightly, unconsciously shivering.

The soaked clothes clung to her body, making the chill even more biting when blown by the cold wind.

Only then did she belatedly begin to worry, could she really catch cold?

Lu Xiao immediately tightened his embrace, his tall figure like a fortress of steel, sheltering her completely in his arms.

His body temperature was astonishingly high, his chest pressed against hers, dispelling the chill from her entire body like a furnace, gradually raising her own temperature.

Shen Tang’s face flushed, as she wrapped around his firm waist, her sweet voice like melting honey, ”Ah Xiao...”

She couldn’t wait, didn’t even have the thought to flirt with him.

She only wanted, right away, now—

To fully experience him!

No male can resist the loving advance of a deeply loved female; even if Lu Xiao were wooden, he’d have to take root and blossom!

His taut Adam’s apple moved intensely, the bulging muscles glistened with a golden hue under the moonlight.

He didn’t know how much restraint he exercised to plant a gentle kiss on her lips, ”The water... isn’t clean.”

The sound of splashing water arose, Lu Xiao lifted her horizontally. Nearby in the forest, there was a patch of flat land, covered in soft grass.

Just as Shen Tang was puzzled, she saw him take out a complete set of bedding from the Light Brain Space—a fluffy quilt, soft pillow, and even...

Her surprise hadn’t even been voiced before her lips were sealed with a burning kiss, words becoming impossible.

The gentle moonlight spilled over the shadows unified as one, the grass beside them crushed in their rolling.

...

After a bout of spring breeze.

Shen Tang languidly lay in Lu Xiao’s arms, feeling an indescribable satisfaction and soreness all over.

This dog of a man appeared upright and reserved, the epitome of self-restraint and propriety, but when it came to playing, he truly played to the fullest.

He even brought outdoor gear.

Truly a real beast!

Knowing a person’s face but not their heart!

Lu Xiao carried her to the riverside for a proper bath.

When the wind blew, Shen Tang felt colder, and clung to him tightly.

Lu Xiao thoughtfully took out prepared new clothes from the space, helping her dress, meticulous down to the complete set of small garments.

Lu Xiao also dressed again, buttoning his collar meticulously all the way to the top, even concealing his Adam’s apple, reverting back to his usual abstinent, stable look.

If not for the slightly messy hair, even Shen Tang might not believe the mature abstinent man before her, and how crazily he’d acted with her on the grass!

As dawn broke, Lu Xiao draped an overcoat over Shen Tang and reverted to beast form to continue their journey.

Just as they reached the gate, they saw the Yun Family’s patriarch waiting with bundles of gifts.

Seeing the two return safely, the old man clearly heaved a sigh of relief.

Upon sensing Lu Xiao’s aura at the Tenth Rank breakthrough, Lu Shen was overjoyed, smiling wide, ”Good lad! You sure make your dad proud! Young as you are, to break through to the Tenth Rank, not just in our Night Glow Empire, but worldwide you’re top-tier!”

After praising his son, the old man immediately changed face and had people bring up the gifts, ”Your Majesty, don’t be angry, my second child is ignorant, I’ve already punished him with three months of house arrest. These are some modest gifts I’ve prepared to apologize. Someday! I shall personally bring him to apologize to you!”

Lu Xiao frowned and looked at Shen Tang, ”What happened?”

The old man realized he’d let slip, quickly signaling Shen Tang with eye gestures.

Shen Tang smiled at him reassuringly.

Once back in the house, Shen Tang gave a brief recount of the events from the past two days.

To avoid souring relations between the brothers, she didn’t mention the drugging, just said, ”Your brother wants to become my Beast Husband, he came forward himself.”

Lu Xiao’s gaze turned cold, but quickly returned to normal, so fast it seemed like an illusion.

Lu Xiao’s voice was calm, ”He wanted to seduce you?”

Shen Tang had just taken a sip of water and nearly spat it out, instinctively wanting to rebut but upon reconsideration found it rather accurate.

He understood his second brother’s character quite well.

Shen Tang, ”...You could say that.”

Lu Xiao’s gaze settled on her face, he spoke gently, ”Does the Female Master like him?”

Shen Tang raised an eyebrow to look at him, answering a question with another, ”Do you hope I like him? Wouldn’t you mind sharing a female with your brother?”

Lu Xiao pressed his lips together, smiling tenderly, ”If the Female Master is willing, you can accept him.”

Shen Tang felt a sudden displeasure and irritation at such a bland reaction, ”I don’t like him, he’s far inferior to you.”

Saying this, she grew even more displeased, ”Would you truly be willing to serve me alongside your brother? Wouldn’t you be jealous?”

Truth be told, Shen Tang has rarely seen Lu Xiao displaying jealousy.

Among the house’s Beast Husbands, Xiao Jin is the most competitive and jealous, Jia Lan occasionally acidic, Xue Yinzhou, though quiet, possesses a jealousy not inferior, and when he can’t bear it anymore acts out directly.

Yet Lu Xiao has always been calm, strictly adhering to the principle of ”Whoever the Female Master favors is her freedom, no interference.”

He only becomes active when teased to the point of needing, initiating the pursuit.

Lu Xiao sighed lightly, ”As long as you wish, anything is permissible.”

Shen Tang looked at the man’s indifferent demeanor, feeling even more annoyed.

Does a male truly not get jealous when in love with a female?

She extended a finger to lift his chin, smiling, ”Oh? Since you’re so generous, I might actually bring Lu Ke into our home.”

She intentionally leaned close to his ear, whispering softly, ”Though your second brother’s mind seems lacking, he’s youthful and handsome, passionate and exuberant...”

Her fingertip circled his chest, ”Must be quite adept at pleasing the Female Master, might charm me someday, and I’d never come find you again~”

Lu Xiao’s hand hanging by his side suddenly clenched, knuckles whitening. Despite knowing her taunt, he couldn’t suppress the swell of jealousy surging within his heart.

He grabbed her and sat on the sofa with her in his arms, his thin lips brushing her earlobe, voice hoarse, ”I am... a little jealous.”

”Just a little?” Shen Tang pressed for more.

”...Don’t want him.” Lu Xiao buried his face into her neck, murmuring, ”He’s not as good as me.”

Shen Tang, ”In what way not as good?”

”Not as thoughtful as me.”

”Not as meticulous as me.”

”Definitely doesn’t love you as much as I do.”

Shen Tang burst into laughter, pinching his hot earlobe, ”How rare to see the Lu Family Head learn to praise himself.”

Lu Xiao revealed a rare trace of embarrassment, he securely sat her on his lap, a warm large palm protecting her waist, the other gently smoothing through her hair, speaking low, ”Second brother frequents the pleasure circles for years, surely better at charming females, unlike me, dull and uninteresting, only ever engaged with the Female Master, not adept at sweet-talking to please. Someday, the Female Master might really grow tired of me.”

”Since the day of engagement, I only wished to be a dutiful Beast Husband, never hoped to win the Female Master’s favor.”

He looked at Shen Tang, chuckling softly, ”Tangtang, to win your affection now, I am already very...”

Before finishing, Shen Tang pressed a finger to his lips.

”Nonsense.” She held his face, ”I love you just the way you are, I adore you, I lied to you, I never even thought of marrying Lu Ke!”

From the doorway came a sudden woeful complaint, ”Tangtang! You’ve never said such sweet things to me!”

Xiao Jin stood at the entrance, unknown from when, lamenting like a ghostly maiden.
