325: Chapter 325 Can't wait

"Forget you?" Bai Wanwan didn't know whether to laugh or cry as she shot him a sidelong glance.

"Yeah, just now in the Witch's Cave, your eyes were fixed on Jin Yi the whole time; you didn't even look at me once."

Yan Lie spoke with increasing fervor, appearing truly aggrieved. "I know Jin Yi is good-looking, but I'm good-looking too. Look at me... Am I not good-looking?"

Yan Lie cupped her face, forcing her to look at him.

Bai Wanwan let him have his way, her eyes seriously sizing up Yan Lie's face.

Her Beast Husbands were all paragons among men; whether in temperament or appearance, each was a standout among beastmen.

None was better looking than the others; they were like a garden of diverse flowers, and she liked them all.

"Wan Wan, am I not good-looking?"

Seeing her staring at him without speaking, the normally confident Yan Lie became anxious.

He was also the most popular Male among the Females of the Leopard Clan, but Wan Wan's Beast Husbands were all exceptional...

But soon, Bai Wanwan gave her answer with a smile. "You're good-looking, grown exactly the way I like."

Yan Lie's temperament and appearance were like a refreshing high school boy, giving off a comfortable feeling, like a crisp glass of lime sparkling water in the middle of a scorching summer.

"Then why didn't you look at me even once just now?"

He wasn't usually so narrow-minded, but as soon as Wan Wan saw Jin Yi, it seemed she only had eyes for that Golden Lion.

From then until now, his heart had been aching.

So he desperately needed Wan Wan's affirmation to let him know she liked him.

"Why do you think? Jin Yi's injuries are so severe, and I only came to see him after two days. And I wonder who covered me in drool last night? If I didn't like you, I would have kicked you out long ago. Would I have let you mess with me all night?"

Yan Lie finally grinned. "I knew Wan Wan had me in her heart. Then, will you kiss me too?"

He leaned in close, staring at her beautiful lips, his Adam's apple bobbing uncontrollably.

Heaven knows, he had wanted to snatch Wan Wan out of Jin Yi's arms just moments ago.

Toward her own people, Bai Wanwan was always accommodating; she immediately stood on her tiptoes and gave him a kiss.

"Not enough, I want more!"

Yan Lie leaned over, just as Jin Yi had done, wrapping her tightly in his arms and kissing her deeply.

Snowflakes fluttered down from above, dusting their bodies.

In the snowy white world, the two of them embracing formed a beautiful picture.

By the next day, Bai Wanwan was still sleeping dizzily when she soon heard a clamor coming from outside.

Bai Wanwan rolled over; beside her, Xin Feng had already gotten out of bed.

Always so diligent, getting up so early even while injured.

Turning to look at the sofa opposite, Yan Lie's sleeping posture was quite unrestrained, his long legs kicking out from under the beast skin, completely unaffected by the noise outside.

Bai Wanwan sat up, clutching the beast skin, wearing soft and thin pajamas as she peered outside dizzily.

Then she heard the Tribe Leader's voice. "You've sacrificed so much for the Tribe; you must accept this food. These things are for Wan Wan, keep them safe as well."

"Thank you, then I'll accept them on Wan Wan's behalf."

Xin Feng didn't refuse and accepted straightforwardly.

"Jin Yi thinks of Wan Wan all day, which isn't good for his recovery. The Clan Witch said he can come back here to recuperate, so I've brought him over."

Xin Feng glanced at the Male beside him who had not yet recovered from his severe injuries.

That was fast. Was he afraid Wan Wan would back out?

"Alright, rest assured, Tribe Leader. Since Wan Wan has agreed to the Pairing Ceremony with the Young Clan Leader, we will be family from now on. It's good for him to come early, so Wan Wan won't have to worry or brave the heavy snow to see him."

Having achieved his goal and fearing they might change their minds, Jin Cang immediately said, "There are still many affairs in the clan to handle, so I'll leave things to you and Wan Wan. I'll be going now."

After saying that, without waiting for Xin Feng's reply, he turned and left impatiently.

Inside the room, the two Males stood facing each other. Xin Feng nodded to him. "Wan Wan is still resting."

"In the future, I will learn from you and protect Wan Wan together with you."

As they were speaking, Bai Wanwan's voice came from inside.

"Jin Yi?"

Hearing her voice, Jin Yi couldn't wait any longer and brushed past Xin Feng into the room.

Having just woken up, Bai Wanwan had an extra touch of lazy charm. She waved to Jin Yi. "I hadn't slept enough before being woken up by you all."

Jin Yi walked over and sat down beside her. "Then sleep, I'll stay with you."

"Mhm, stay with me." She lay down with a smile and patted the spot next to her. "Come up and stay with me."

Jin Yi's face instantly turned red.

This was something he had dreamed of; it used to be a mere pipe dream, but now it was within reach.

It felt slightly surreal.

But he still quickly and obediently took off his heavy outer beast skin, lifted the soft quilt, and lay down inside.

Because his heart was racing and his mind was entirely on the Female beside him, he ignored the soft quilt he had never seen before and lay down, accepting it readily.

Bai Wanwan rolled over, curled into his arms, and closed her eyes. "Go to sleep..."

Sleep?

He was more awake than anyone right now.

Today was different from yesterday. Yesterday, Wan Wan was wearing thick clothes, so even when holding her, the sensation wasn't distinct.

But now, her thin layer of clothing hardly covered anything.

He had also taken off his beast skin, and his bare upper body was not covered by any clothing.

There was only a thin layer of fabric between him and her warm, soft body.

Noticing her breathing gradually steadying, Jin Yi closed his eyes, suppressing his impulses.

Wan Wan really didn't seem to have slept enough; he couldn't disturb her.

Gradually, Bai Wanwan fell asleep again.

The soft, delicate body he had dreamed of was right in his arms, yet he could do nothing.

After a long time like this, a sound came from the opposite side.

Yan Lie sat up from the sofa with a yawn, opening his eyes to look across.

He unexpectedly locked eyes with Jin Yi, and his somewhat hazy gaze instantly cleared.

"Why are you here?"

He threw back the quilt and strode over.

"It's too cold outside. I was worried Wan Wan would get sick running back and forth, so I came here to recover."

Yan Lie saw him holding Wan Wan with a very stiff body and suddenly laughed. "Mhm, you recover well then."

No one knew better than her Beast Husbands how charming Wan Wan was.

Moreover, Jin Yi had never tasted it before; how restless must his heart be?

Yet he could do absolutely nothing...

Jin Yi was completely unable to sleep; every cell in his body was undergoing a form of torture.

But the Female sleeping beside him was completely unaware, sleeping incredibly soundly.

She even felt the scorching body moving away in her sleep and would grope around to press against it again.

After several times back and forth, Jin Yi was already drenched in sweat.

He finally understood the meaning of Yan Lie's smile just now.

This torture lasted for a long time until, finally, Bai Wanwan opened her eyes after getting enough sleep.

Opening her eyes and seeing Jin Yi's handsome face, she mumbled, "I'm not dreaming, am I?"

Watching her lips part and close, Jin Yi lost control and kissed her.

"Jin..."

Her voice was entirely swallowed by his scorching breath.
