251: Chapter 251 Flirting Makes You Feel Like You're on Fire

"Cubs, I'll take you to eat meat, okay?"

Yan Lie shook the piece of Dried meat in his hand, freshly roasted and fragrant, a sly glint flashing in his eyes.

The Wolf Cub was at that greedy, growing stage. As soon as he smelled the meat, he immediately released his little paws tightly clutching his Mother and reached out toward Yan Lie.

Yan Lie wasn't in a hurry to pick him up, which only made the Wolf Cub more impatient. His short legs kicked and thrashed, and he let out soft "aowu aowu" whimpers from his mouth.

Yan Lie's scheme succeeded, the corners of his mouth almost splitting to his ears as he scooped the Wolf Cub out of Bai Wanwan's arms.

The Wolf Cub got the meat he'd been craving and started gnawing on it in big bites. Seeing this, several other Cubs immediately gathered around.

Yan Lie was extremely satisfied. He quietly stepped back, wanting to return to Bai Wanwan's side.

But when he turned around, he found the figure that had been sitting on the beast skin had long since vanished.

"Xin Feng. Where's Wan Wan?"

Yan Lie scanned his surroundings, his voice tinged with urgency.

Xin Feng silently placed a large piece of roasted beast meat, golden and dripping with oil, in front of him, his gaze meaningful. "What do you think?"

Last night, Yan Lie had been unrestrained, tormenting her until dawn. The commotion had kept them all from getting any sleep.

Xin Feng's heart had been in turmoil all night. He had thought the one next door, who was always so domineering, probably wouldn't be able to tolerate Yan Lie making such a ruckus.

But he hadn't expected Zhu Xiu to also tolerate Yan Lie.

Today seemed calm on the surface, but given Zhu Xiu's temperament...

Yan Lie probably wouldn't have a chance to climb onto Wan Wan's Stone Bed for the next few days.

Prodded by Xin Feng's words, Yan Lie immediately understood.

He turned his head to look at Zhu Xiu's Stone House, annoyed at him for taking advantage of the situation.

But he knew very well that if he wanted to stand firm in this family, he couldn't provoke Zhu Xiu.

Forget it... at worst, he'd just have to move faster during hunts outside. There would always be a chance to get close to Wan Wan.

Meanwhile, Bai Wanwan was soaking in a spacious wooden tub. Zhu Xiu's rough palms rubbed over her delicate skin, sending shivers and tingles through her body.

Bai Wanwan couldn't help but laugh and try to squirm forward to escape. "I can do it myself."

But the Male didn't give her a chance to flee. With a long arm, he scooped her back into his embrace.

He didn't say a word, but his hands gently and firmly washed her.

Bai Wanwan struggled a little, but couldn't break free. She knew Zhu Xiu was determined to wash her today.

So, she simply relaxed and let him handle her.

What she didn't notice was that every time the Male's hands slid over her snow-white skin, his eyes grew darker.

Once Bai Wanwan relaxed, she comfortably enjoyed his ministrations.

Since the weather had turned hot, the Males in the household had followed her request and hollowed out an entire giant tree to make this spacious bathing tub.

The tub was large enough for her to swim a few laps inside, but for the Males, even such a large tub was easy for them to move.

Suddenly, Zhu Xiu's hands disappeared from her body. Bai Wanwan, feeling free, immediately wanted to swim forward.

But as soon as she moved, a pair of powerful arms slipped under her armpits and effortlessly lifted her out of the water, splashing water onto the floor.

"Mmm, let me soak a little longer," Bai Wanwan turned her head, using a soft, coaxing tone with him.

"The water's getting cold. Soaking too long will make you sick."

Without another word, Zhu Xiu exerted a little force and lifted her out of the tub.

Bai Wanwan sat in the crook of his arm and naturally wrapped her arms around his neck.

Her dripping wet body was still shedding water, soaking him.

He didn't seem to mind at all, but when his cheek touched her soft skin, his Adam's apple couldn't help but bob.

Bai Wanwan, still oblivious, mumbled, "In this weather, cooler water feels more comfortable."

Zhu Xiu quickly grabbed the nearby beast skin blanket and wrapped her in it, wiping the water droplets from her body.

When his fingertips inadvertently brushed over marks left by the other Male, Bai Wanwan clearly felt those slender fingers pause slightly.

This is bad...

She knew very well how possessive Zhu Xiu was. Who knew he'd insist on bathing her today?

Zhu Xiu turned and laid her flat on the bed.

"Zhu Xiu."

She deliberately drew out her tone, reaching a slender arm out from the blanket to hook around his neck and pull him down with her.

Zhu Xiu's body followed, pressing down. His breathing instantly grew heavy, and those always calm, controlled eyes were now frighteningly dark.

"Don't play around," his voice was hoarse beyond recognition. "You can't handle it."

In truth, she had already restored her stamina with the medicine pill from her system. Now, she deliberately squirmed in his embrace, wanting to see how long he could hold out.

Zhu Xiu's gaze grew darker and darker, and the hand gripping her slender waist noticeably tightened.

Yet, he still took a deep breath and quickly pushed himself up from the bed.

"Be good, lie down properly. I'm going to wash up."

After saying that, he immediately stood up and walked to the bathing tub in a few strides.

If it weren't for the fact that Yan Lie had tormented her until dawn last night, he would never let her off so easily.

Zhu Xiu took a deep breath, pulled off the bothersome beast skin covering him in a few moves, and began washing himself with the water she had used.

Bai Wanwan lay on the edge of the bed, watching unblinkingly as water droplets rolled down Zhu Xiu's powerful back muscles.

That perfect proportion of broad shoulders and narrow waist, every muscle seemed meticulously sculpted, containing astonishing explosive power.

He washed quickly. Before Bai Wan had her fill of the view, she saw Zhu Xiu already standing up from the tub.

As he stepped out of the tub, glistening trails of water meandered on the floor, creating an alluring path.

"Gulp..."

Bai Wanwan had originally intended to tease him some more, but the sight before her was overwhelming.

She stared fixedly at the Male's magnificent physique.

Zhu Xiu, of course, saw the appreciation and satisfaction in the Little Female's eyes.

As a Male, being stared at by his own Female with such a gaze was undoubtedly a great encouragement and praise for him.

Zhu Xiu's eyes darkened. "Wan Wan, turn around."

If she kept looking at him like this, he was afraid he'd shatter that damned self-control.

Bai Wanwan smiled and really obediently turned over.

Zhu Xiu took a deep breath before walking over and lying down beside her.

Even after washing with the already cold water, the heat in his body hadn't subsided.

The unique, sweet scent belonging to the Female beside him kept drifting into his nostrils.

Zhu Xiu immediately closed his eyes.

Suddenly, Bai Wanwan turned over, wrapping her arms around his waist.

"Zhu Xiu..."

Her voice was soft and sweet, like a fire ignited in Zhu Xiu's heart.

Bai Wanwan felt it wasn't enough. She leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Actually, I took a medicine pill. My body has already recovered. It's okay."

After saying this, Bai Wanwan waited quietly.

She found Zhu Xiu still had his eyes tightly closed, not moving a muscle.

Bai Wanwan narrowed her eyes, leaned close to his ear, and gave it a gentle bite.

Zhu Xiu let out a muffled groan, his voice unbearably seductive.

Bai Wanwan had only meant to tease him, but now she was feeling a bit parched herself.

"Wan Wan, don't play around."

Bai Wanwan felt she had gone this far, and Zhu Xiu still remained unmoved. It was practically an insult to her charm.

She didn't believe it!

Bai Wanwan suddenly climbed up his chest, flipped over, and sat astride him.
