Chapter 36 It's so cold
The night was as black as ink, and the cold wind stung my skin.

The temperature on the polluted planet plummeted to a deep winter-like level at night, something Jiang Mian never expected.

During the day it's the hottest time of summer, and at night it's the coldest winter wind.

What a vicious and appalling environment!

No, she's only wearing a short-sleeved shirt, she'll freeze to death.

Five orcs sat down in a circle around her, keeping a distance between them. Jiang Mian sat in the middle, but she was still so cold that her teeth were chattering.

The cold clods of earth on the ground were even covered with a sugar-like frost.

A single palm press turned it into a wet, cool water stain.

Jiang Mian looked at the orcs and found that their expressions were normal, as if they did not feel cold at all.

She naturally understood that orcs' bodies were different from humans', and their ability to regulate body temperature was far superior to that of humans.

Lin Yu noticed that she was shivering from the cold. A strand of slightly curled black hair fell in front of his narrow, slightly lowered red eyes. His long, cold hands gripped the ground slightly, and the blue veins on his hands were slightly prominent. Just as he was about to ask Jiang Mian if she wanted to come into his arms and struggle violently, other beastmen beside him spoke first.

"Come here, sister, I'll hug you." Chi Lin smiled brightly and opened her arms to Jiang Mian. "My arms are so warm."

Rin Yu couldn't utter the words she wanted to say, as if her throat had been pressed.

Hearing Chi Lin's words, Jiang Mian only gave a forced smile: "Have you forgotten what kind of beastman you are?"

Scorpions, lizards, snakes, and butterflies are all cold-blooded orcs, meaning their body temperature changes with the ambient temperature.

So their body temperature must be extremely cold right now!
Only the wolf-orcs are warm-blooded orcs, and they also have fluffy fur.

"Sister, as long as you come and let me hug you, I'll get excited, and when I get excited, my body temperature will rise." Chi Lin's voice still carried a hint of laughter, "It will definitely warm you up, sister."

Jiang Mian had no desire to retaliate or answer Chi Lin.

My mind was racing, trying every possible way to keep warm.

At that moment, her hand seemed to touch a handful of warm hair, and she could hardly resist touching it upwards, wanting to absorb even more intense heat.

The next second, her wrist was grabbed by a warm, large hand.

Li Yan's vicious voice rang out: "You surnamed Jiang, what are you doing?"

Jiang Mian's hazy consciousness suddenly cleared up a bit. She thought she had touched Li Yan's tail just now. The tail seemed to have recovered a bit. The fur didn't feel as dry and stiff as it had before. It was a little smoother, although it was still a bit dry.

"Touch my tail again, or I'll chop off your hand." Li Yan's fierce and icy voice lashed out.

This brought Jiang Mian back to her senses once again.

Hearing Li Yan's cold warning, Jiang Mian felt a chill in his heart.

The wolf-beastman's tail must be very warm, but Li Yan definitely wouldn't let her hug it. The wolf-beastman's body temperature must also be very warm, but Li Yan wouldn't hug it either.

But it's so cold!
She should have taken that blanket from the starship!

“Sister, the wolf-beastmen won’t hug you.” Chi Lin said softly, her voice seemingly carrying an unreadable emotion. “I’m rushing to give it to you, sister, why don’t you care about me?”

He was indeed a little unhappy. Jiang Mian would rather touch the tail of the wolf-beastman who had been mocking her than come into his arms, making his attempts to please her seem so cheap.

Perhaps there was also jealousy that he couldn't quite discern.

A wolf's tail is ugly and smelly; can it be as majestic and beautiful as a blue scorpion's tail?
The night was too dark, and Jiang Mian, being a human, couldn't see Chi Lin's expression clearly, nor did she notice that his tone was different.

She subconsciously ignored what he said again. All Jiang Mian could think about was finding warmth.

Then she felt a pang of heartache. How come only Li Yan was a constant-temperature beastman?

She touched his tail, and he was about to chop off her hand.

If she were to ask him to hold her for the night, wouldn't he kill her?
Jiang Mian's thoughts were fiercely battling in her mind, but in the end, she couldn't withstand the harsh and cold weather.

"Cough, Li Yan, I helped you through your manic phase last time, so in return, how about you help me get through this cold tonight?" Jiang Mian felt that her reasoning was sound, so how could Li Yan refuse her?
But that despicable guy, Li Yan, had the nerve to refuse her!

"No." Li Yan replied coldly with just two words.

Jiang Mian:......

“Then you must endure your manic periods from now on.” Jiang Mian gritted her teeth.

The next second, a fluffy coat was thrown over and landed on Jiang Mian's head.

Li Yan spoke softly, "Don't let me die of cold with you."

Jiang Mian grabbed the fleece coat covering her head, and as she threw it back at Li Yan's face, stubbornly saying she didn't need it, she was still too spineless to put it on when a gust of wind blew by. She shivered from the cold, and the next second she put it on neatly. The large fleece coat instantly wrapped her up.

It's finally not so cold anymore!
If only there were a few more plush clothes for her to sleep in, that would be perfect. Just as Jiang Mian was about to ask Li Yan if there were any more clothes, a hot hand encircled her wrist!

Jiang Mian was slightly taken aback; this level of enthusiasm was like a fire in winter.

On such a frozen, cold night, she needed this fire!

"Come here, Mianmian," Rong Fei said in a soft, low voice, "I'll hold you."

Before Jiang Mian could react, Rong Fei had already naturally and easily carried her into his arms in a princess carry. Jiang Mian's cold cheeks and hands instantly touched the burning heat of Rong Fei's strong chest through his clothes.

She felt as if she were being embraced by a warm stove.

It's so warm; I just want to snuggle up in Rong Fei's arms.

However, she knew that lizardmen's body temperature was not usually this high, let alone on this cold night.

"What's wrong with your body temperature?" Jiang Mian finally asked.

“Manic phase,” Rong Fei said calmly.

In fact, after Jiang Mian's treatment last time, his mania had not recurred for a long time, and it did not recur tonight either.

However, he injected himself with drugs that would trigger a manic phase.

Then his body temperature will rise, and he can hold her like this.

And she wouldn't refuse.

His body ached terribly and burned terribly, but when he held her in his arms, the pain became pleasurable.

“Manic phase? I’ll help you cure it.” Jiang Mian said, reaching out to find his tail, but instead touched his lean waist and abdomen.

The next second, her hand was covered by another large, slender hand, nestled between her fingers. Pressure came from the back of her hand, and her palm pressed even closer to the thin muscles of his waist, almost touching without any gap. A burning heat came from her palm.

"No need," Rong Fei said in a low, hoarse voice.
