38: But the body is very honest.

"You...!"

Di Luoying was both angry and embarrassed.

Watching Gu Yuan's mischievous smile, she couldn't help but recall when he had saved her; he had worn the same wicked expression back then.

At that time, she hadn't fallen for him yet, so she detested that look, seeing no difference between him and a frivolous lecher.

But later... how did he manage to steal her heart?

Di Luoying was still immersed in her memories.

She hadn't realized that Gu Yuan had already wrapped his arms around her and was starting to get handsy.

When she finally reacted, she immediately grabbed Gu Yuan's hand and bit him.

"Hey, stop... What's wrong?"

Gu Yuan cleared his throat and looked at her with confusion.

How could this guy look at her without changing his expression?

Di Luoying let out a soft snort, a blush creeping onto her pretty face.

"You have the nerve to ask me what I'm doing? What were you doing just now? I—I won't let you bully me!"

Uh... Gu Yuan gave an awkward smile, hugged Di Luoying, and kissed her cheek.

"What are you talking about? Didn't Luoying, you, call me over?"

Di Luoying instantly widened her eyes, staring at Gu Yuan in disbelief.

"I—I called you over just so you could bully me!? What are you thinking, Gu Yuan? You are truly shameless!"

Mm... Gu Yuan smiled subtly.

To be honest, he really thought Luoying had asked him to see her tonight because they hadn't seen each other in a long time and she wanted to get intimate.

Turns out that wasn't it...?

"Ahem, well then, Luoying, is there something you wanted to talk about?"

Gu Yuan quietly changed the subject, but he kept Di Luoying embraced in his arms.

Mm, the body of a Sword Immortal is also this soft and fragrant.

It feels so comfortable to hold her!

Di Luoying genuinely intended to get out of Gu Yuan's embrace.

After all, she was the current Sword Immortal, yet here she was, nestled in a man's arms.

This... this is outrageous...!

But just as she placed her hands on Gu Yuan's chest to push away, he hugged her even tighter.

"Luoying, we can talk just fine like this, don't you agree?"

This person is as brazenly shameless as ever!

Di Luoying mentally spat at him.

It was the same back when she taught him sword practice.

He insisted that she had to teach him up close, claiming that progress would be much faster that way.

Back then, she actually believed his nonsense.

The result was that he took huge advantage of her, and afterward, she even had to compliment him on his extraordinary talent.

Thinking about it now, she was thoroughly manipulated by him back then... "I ask you, what is going on between you and Qing Ci? I feel like her attitude towards you is quite unusual."

Di Luoying couldn't break free from Gu Yuan's embrace, so she eventually just gave in.

Mm... it's not like this is the first time he's hugged her anyway.

Uh... Hearing her words, Gu Yuan spread his hands, slightly exasperated.

"Little Noodle, ahem, I mean Qing Ci, and I are just friends! What are you thinking about all day?"

Di Luoying looked at Gu Yuan suspiciously, trying to find any unnatural expression on his face.

Unfortunately, Gu Yuan seemed too sincere, so she had to drop it.

"Is that so? Then why do I feel like Qing Ci has changed a bit? Mm... she's become more... human."

Di Luoying frowned slightly, seemingly genuinely pondering the issue.

Huh...?

Gu Yuan chuckled and playfully rubbed her nose.

"She's your Disciple, how can you talk about her like that? Little Noodle, ahem, Qing Ci is just too serious, I wouldn't say she lacks humanity, right?"

Hearing this, Di Luoying gently shook her head.

"I didn't mean anything else. She has practiced the sword since childhood and has never been exposed to the outside world, so her temperament is somewhat different from ordinary people."

Hearing her say that, Gu Yuan also recalled the first time he met Qing Ci.

Mm... Little Noodle did seem a bit cold and aloof.

But thankfully, after his guidance—ah, no, cultivation—she is now like a normal person.

Aside from being as serious as ever, nothing else is amiss.

"You're talking about her? When we first met, weren't you exactly the same."

Gu Yuan said this and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Compared to Qing Ci back then, Luoying was even more extreme.

His impression of her back then was that she was a block of Ten-Thousand-Year Glacial Ice, the kind no one could melt.

Di Luoying lightly punched Gu Yuan's chest in dissatisfaction.

"What, do you prefer me the way I was back then? Fine. Hmph, lecher, get off me. How dare you touch This Venerable One?"

Di Luoying entered the role very quickly, switching to Iceberg Beauty mode in an instant.

At this moment, she was expressionless, and there was no emotion whatsoever in her beautiful eyes.

Her pretty face was frosted over, looking like an unapproachable goddess.

Huh...?

Gu Yuan was not surprised but delighted. He didn't expect Luoying knew how to do this!

How did she know he liked this kind of vibe?

Mm... she should do this kind of role-playing more often!

Di Luoying had originally just wanted to joke with Gu Yuan and scare him a little.

But she didn't expect that when she adopted the cold demeanor she had when they first met...

She could clearly feel that this guy actually got excited.

Di Luoying was instantly dumbfounded.

Wait, how, how could you get excited by this?

I—I am showing disgust towards you!

Di Luoying could not understand Gu Yuan's current psychological state.

And when Gu Yuan saw her Iceberg mode, he likewise couldn't restrain himself.

He immediately started breathing roughly, pulled the stunned Di Luoying into his arms, and then sealed her delicate red lips.

"Mmmph...!"

Di Luoying instantly widened her eyes. Caught off guard, Gu Yuan pried open her pearly teeth.

She wanted to push Gu Yuan away, but Gu Yuan was extremely excited at the moment, making it impossible to push him off immediately.

And along with his kissing, Di Luoying felt his hands starting to wander.

"Mmmph... You, stop... Why are you in such a hurry... Ah..."

"Hehe, Luoying, I love that vibe you had just now. Come on, do it again, that high-and-mighty look of disdain."

"Mmmph...? Wh-what are you talking about? Fine, fine, I understand. Gu Yuan, how dare you! How can This Venerable One allow this? You lecher, I... Ah... Mmmph... You, you bad guy!"

Gu Yuan looked at Luoying, whose pretty face was flushed red from his teasing, yet she still stubbornly insisted on looking like she would resist to the death.

The sense of conquest in his heart reached its peak.

Luoying is very skilled indeed~

Gu Yuan chuckled, leaned close to Di Luoying's ear, and whispered:

"I just love it when the Sword Immortal says she's disgusted, but her body honestly feels it~"

Mmmph...!

Di Luoying, both ashamed and annoyed, slapped Gu Yuan's shoulder.

How, how can this guy be so wicked!

What, what kind of things is he saying... It's too, too embarrassing!

What does he mean her body is honest? I—I'll bite this utterly wicked person to death!
