Chapter 596 Royal Sister-in-law, I love you!

Jiang Xinli instinctively stepped back, her back slamming against the cold door panel.

She hurriedly looked away, her heart pounding like a drum. "I didn't."

"That's it," the boy said, his black tentacles wriggling, his lean, powerful arms trapping her in a small space, then closing in on her a few more times.

"Are you avoiding me?"

Jiang Xinli bit her lower lip lightly, avoiding his question:

"Third brother, Yun Bo and the others are still waiting for us downstairs. We should go down now."

She desperately wanted to know if the person who had been spying on her from the doorway that night was him.

But the circumstances that night were too unusual for her to talk about.

Moreover, at this moment, the boy's burning gaze was too aggressive.

She saw in him the obsessive figure that Xuan Ying had once been.

Don't provoke him.

Jiang Xinli's mind raced, and she quickly changed the subject, "By the way, I've always wanted to thank you."

She looked away and faced him directly:
"Thank you for risking your life to save me outside the abyss prison."

"I will definitely find a chance to repay you—" She was interrupted by the boy halfway through her sentence, "Sister-in-law, I saved you willingly."

A jet-black tentacle silently wrapped around her slender waist.

Each of the octopus's eight tentacles is covered with sensitive nerves.

The moment his wrists and feet touched her body, the soft skin beneath the thin fabric and the faint scent of roses, through the suction cups, reached deep into the boy's senses.

Feeling the suction cups clinging to her waist, Jiang Xinli froze. "Third brother, what are you doing!"

If it were someone else, she would have already used her dodder vines to retaliate.

But at this moment, she cannot.

The tentacles tightened, pulling her toward his chest.

He leaned close to her ear, his hot breath brushing against her earlobe: "Sister-in-law, I love you."

Jiang Xinli's head buzzed and she was stunned.

She never expected that C'Thun would be even more blatant and direct than he had been downstairs.

"Um," she clenched her fingers, trying to calm herself, "are you an adult?"

"I'm going to tell my sister-in-law that I'm an adult now," the young man chuckled coldly, suddenly closing in, his tentacles dangerously brushing against her waist.
"Does that mean I can do to my sister-in-law the things you and Xueyin did?"

"You—" Although she had already guessed it, Jiang Xinli still choked up.

Her fair and delicate face turned bright red in an instant.

Therefore, the person secretly spying outside the door that night was C'Thun.

Previously, when she and Xuan Ying were doing *that*, Sheng Tianze and the others had seen it.

But Sheng Tianze and the others were, after all, her beast husbands.

C'Thun was her savior.

He is Yunbo's younger brother.

Jiang Xinli felt her mind was in a jumble.

She took a deep breath. "C'Thun, let me go first."

Seeing that his tentacles showed no sign of loosening their grip, she patted them and said softly, "Listen to me, I have something to tell you."

The boy's body trembled violently the moment his cold hands were touched by the girl's warm fingertips.

He suppressed the throbbing in his heart and slowly released her with his touch.

The boy lowered his eyelashes, his voice low and husky, "What does my sister-in-law want to say to me?"

Jiang Xinli looked directly at him and said, "You must answer every question I ask you honestly."

The boy's Adam's apple bobbed. "Okay."

Am I the first female you've ever met?

".yes."

"Am I the first female you ever hugged?"

".yes."

The young man suddenly looked up, his dark pupils swirling with unspoken tension. "Sister-in-law, what exactly do you want to confirm?"

Jiang Xinli pursed her lips, her mind racing.

In her view, the reason why C'Thun and Xueyin were so infatuated with her was most likely because she was the first female they had ever come into contact with. Especially C'Thun, who had been imprisoned in the Abyss Cage.

He was heavily polluted and his mind was not clear at the time.

She purified his pollution.

She brought warmth to his side.

This is just like the redemption stories she read back in ancient Earth.

That's why he developed special feelings for her.

Thinking of this, she tentatively asked, "If you don't want to call me 'Empress Sister-in-law,' how about we be friends first?"

"Friend?" A hint of surprise flashed in the boy's eyes, just like when he heard Yun Bo tell him to change his address to "Royal Sister-in-law" downstairs.

His eyes suddenly darkened, and his voice carried a hint of suppressed longing, "Sister-in-law, I don't want to be friends with you."

Jiang Xinli's head is a little big.

"What I'm saying is only temporary. You know what dangers await on the Ultimate Path and the Ultimate Land that follow."

She explained softly, "There are still four days left on the road to the ultimate destination, and you won't stay in the ultimate place for too long. Actually, you don't have to wait too long."

"I promise you, once we've safely returned to interstellar space, tell me what you want."

She hesitated for a moment, then said, "If I can do it, I will definitely agree."

When he returns to interstellar space, he will have the opportunity to meet more outstanding and beautiful females.

A young sea creature experiencing its first stirrings of love would probably not be so persistent.

The boy lowered his eyes, a shadow passing over them. "Sister-in-law, I am not a child."

He curled his tentacles, then suddenly looked up at her, a possessive glint in his lips, and slightly raised them.
"What if what I want is you yourself?"

Jiang Xinli: “.”

She wanted to refuse decisively.

She wanted to say that she had promised Yun Bo that she would only have Yun Bo as her sea beast husband.

But the thought of having already broken my promise because of Xueyin...
Then, considering what Yunbo said, that Jinyuan is most adept at exploiting the dark side of human nature and making unequal contracts with them.

C'Thun was once a vessel for the remnant soul of Ember.

To speak of entanglement, to speak of corruption, to speak of being used by Him.

Therefore, C'Thun is undoubtedly the easiest one.

In addition, his octopus form and his upbringing have given him a somewhat dark and obsessive personality.
Jiang Xinli, referring to "C'Thun," took a deep breath, carefully choosing her words.

"If we successfully return to interstellar space, and if I develop feelings for you, then—"

“I will seriously consider what you just said.”

Relationships require mutual affection.

At least she was attracted to Xueyin.

They had a brief but warm period together.

There is love too.

However, those beastly husbands were not as extreme as her.

But for C'Thun, she felt more pity and gratitude for the fact that he had risked his life to save her.

But this is not love.

It's not even like.

Feeling moved and feeling compassion should not be reasons for having anything happen between you and him.

Nor should it be a reason for her to accept his declaration of love.

The boy understood her meaning; his eyelashes slowly drooped, casting a shadow on his pale, handsome face.
"I understand, Your Majesty."

Just as Jiang Xinli breathed a slight sigh of relief, the boy's lips curled into a dangerous smile once again.

He leaned closer, his tentacles slowly tightening on the doorframe:
"Sister-in-law, I will make you fall in love with me willingly."

"and--"

He leaned down, his thin lips close to her ear, his voice low and husky.
"I have eight tentacles with suction cups."

"Compared to their two small fish—"

"Even more interesting."

Jiang Xinli: "Σ(⊙▽⊙"a"
