138: Chapter 138 Luo Li is shy

Qin Ge turned his head, glancing sideways at Luo Li, who was sitting beside him with her head down. Feigning ignorance, he said, "Why did you sit back down?"

Luo Li bowed her head, doing her best to keep her voice calm, "I do not wish to cause irreversible consequences."

"Then what do you want?"

A playful smile hung on the corners of Qin Ge's mouth.

What, did she feel guilty about making him go swimming in the ocean?

Did she think that since he helped Yunhai City resolve the Vampire scourge, he shouldn't be subjected to this, and now she could let him reach out and touch her?

Say it!

If you don't say it, how would I know?

Wasn't Luo Li resistant to having contact with him?

Wasn't she unwilling to use him to divert her attention?

Then he would make Luo Li take the initiative to ask for it herself!

Luo Li was indeed self-respecting and sufficiently reserved.

But now, the matter of hugging and holding was not something he had demanded, nor was he trying to take advantage of Luo Li; rather, it was because Luo Li's constitution was currently plagued by surging cold, a situation caused by Luo Li herself.

Qin Ge wanted to see.

Which was stronger: Luo Li's desire to avoid contact with him, or the importance of resolving the Vampire scourge!

Rumble— The fuselage began to shake and jolt violently from time to time.

Qiao Yingzi's urgent voice also rang out continuously within the cabin.

Furthermore, Qiao Yingzi warned that her flight piloting skills were not that advanced, and perhaps during the emergency landing on the sea, the plane might disintegrate or even explode.

She told Qin Ge and Luo Li to prepare themselves mentally!

"If this continues, the engine will really lose power!"

Feeling the jolting of the fuselage, Luo Li, her cheeks slightly flushed, took the initiative to place Qin Ge's palm on her waist.

Watching Luo Li take matters into her own hands, Qin Ge feigned surprise and teased, "So after all that, you wanted me to hold you!"

Luo Li raised her cold, aloof face, gazed into Qin Ge's eyes, and with a straight face, instinctively retorted, "This matter is about you contributing to Yunhai City; it shouldn't be so unseemly, and even less should unnecessary energy be wasted on such trivialities!"

"I just want to divert my attention! I don't want to cause you trouble."

Qin Ge nodded, placed his palm on the back of Luo Li's head, and applied a little pressure.

Forcing her face against his chest, he said very seriously, "Given the current situation, we must curb the cold overflow as quickly as possible. Otherwise, if the ice doesn't melt, there will be no way to avoid the emergency landing!"

While letting Luo Li lean against his chest, Qin Ge also used his hand to pull Luo Li's delicate body closer to his side.

"Ding! Luo Li, Daughter of Fortune is feeling shy, rewarding Host with +8,000 villain points!"

"Ding! Luo Li, Daughter of Fortune continues to feel shy, rewarding Host with +10,000 villain points!"

Hearing the notification of the rewards, Qin Ge looked at Luo Li, who was motionless in his arms like a big block of ice, and began to wonder.

Before, when he was touching her, there were no anger emotion points provided. Yet now, she was actually feeling shy?

Once provided, it was nearly 20,000 villain points?

Was it because, considering the bigger picture, this trip was to resolve the Vampire scourge, so no matter how dissatisfied Luo Li was, she wouldn't hold a grudge?

But now, from Luo Li's own perspective, such intimate contact had far exceeded the limit of what she could accept. And so, the big ice block was shy?

Looking at Luo Li's ink-colored hair, as smooth as satin, in his arms, Qin Ge's palm gently caressed her graceful back, and he could feel the slight trembling of Luo Li's delicate body.

"She has her own opinions, acts decisively, yet is clear about what she loves and hates. She won't be hostile without reason, nor will she lose her judgment at every turn."

"This Daughter of Destiny is too clear-headed!"

Feeling Luo Li's warm breath hitting his chest, Qin Ge couldn't help but curl his lips upward, thinking to himself, "But no matter how clear-headed Luo Li is, isn't she now resting obediently in his arms just like a little white rabbit?"

After this experience, would the next time be far off?

He wanted to see how long the psychological defenses that Luo Li had erected against him because of her four Junior Sisters could hold up!

Haa— Leaning against Qin Ge's chest, Luo Li let out a heavy breath, her whole body unconsciously tensing up.

She could see the clear texture of Qin Ge's shirt. She could also hear his solid and powerful heartbeat. She could even feel the warmth of Qin Ge's chest.

She could even detect that Qin Ge was using a few fingers to touch her back.

Haa— Her rapid breathing could not calm down in the short term.

Leaning in the arms of a man like this was an experience Luo Li had never had since she was a child.

She was picked up and raised by Master. She didn't even know if she had ever leaned in her father's arms!

She had never imagined that she would one day snuggle in the arms of another, in the arms of a man.

Especially when thinking about the relationship between Junior Sister Huanhuan and Qin Ge, Luo Li felt increasingly tormented.

She had originally wanted to persuade Shangguan Yuer and Su Yaoyao to leave Qin Ge one by one.

After all, to be honest, the two of them didn't have much involvement with Qin Ge. Su Yaoyao's feelings were even more of an unreasonable love at first sight.

As long as she convinced Shangguan Yuer and Su Yaoyao, and explained the details of the situation to her Junior Sister Huanhuan, even if she was inseparable from Qin Ge, outsiders wouldn't be able to say a word of slander.

She wanted to help Qin Huanhuan resolve her emotional predicament. She wanted to give Qin Huanhuan a perfect solution so that she wouldn't feel so indebted and fall into mental exhaustion.

Who would have thought that the trouble with the two Junior Sisters, Shangguan Yuer and Su Yaoyao, hadn't been resolved yet? Instead, she, the Second Senior Sister, was snuggled up so intimately with Qin Ge in a place where Junior Sister Huanhuan couldn't see.

There was even that little pervert Ruan Xingrou lurking in the shadows!

Luo Li only felt chaos in her mind. Such an inextricably tangled emotional web made Luo Li's head ache unbearably.

This was even more of a headache than resolving the Vampire scourge!

When she returned to Yunhai City, how should she face Junior Sister Huanhuan? And what attitude should she take when treating the other Junior Sisters?

Could she, as she was now, really still righteously accuse the few Junior Sisters of being unseemly?

While Luo Li was conflicted, she glanced slightly and was surprised to see that the mineral water placed in the cabin had actually started to thaw!

Hugging Luo Li, Qin Ge yawned and said lazily, "I'm a bit tired and want to lie down for a while. You should lie down too, it'll be easier for me to hold you."

Luo Li raised her beautiful eyes from Qin Ge's arms and looked up at his face, which remained handsome even from the unflattering angle, and said, "The cold seems to have subsided a lot now; it has started to melt."

Qin Ge hummed in agreement, "Then we need to hold each other even more. Think about it: originally there were small ice crystals in the engine, but now they've melted into water. If you have another cold outbreak, that water will turn back into ice crystals, and with the engine running at high speed, if they keep hitting it, wouldn't that cause the engine to break down completely?"

A look of surprise and suspicion appeared in Luo Li's beautiful eyes. She even got carsick, so how could she be familiar with the construction of an airplane? She only felt that under this explanation, the situation was becoming increasingly dangerous, so she nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "What you say makes sense!"
