Douluo Continent: I, Huo Yuhao, have a Beast Taming Space

Chapter 24 How about giving it a try?

With a thick nasal tone, she said in a muffled voice, "Then... then let me go first! I promise I won't hit you!"

Huo Yuhao confirmed, "It's settled then? No fighting, okay?"

"Okay! Let go now!"

Wang Dong urged, his ears so red they looked like they were about to bleed.

Huo Yuhao then released his grip and got off her.

Wang Dong immediately sprang up like a startled rabbit, grabbed the blanket from the bed and wrapped herself up tightly, revealing only her pretty face, which was flushed red and her eyes were slightly red. She glared fiercely at Huo Yuhao with a look of utter shame and indignation.

"Turn around! Don't look!"

she ordered.

"oh oh."

Huo Yuhao was also a little embarrassed.

She quickly turned around. Behind her, she heard the rustling sound of someone rapidly putting on clothes.

"That jerk... looking, touching, and hitting... that's too much..."

While frantically putting on his clothes, Wang Dong gritted his teeth under his breath, feeling that he had never been so humiliated in his life.

Strangely enough, aside from feeling ashamed and angry, she didn't have any bad feelings towards Huo Yuhao.

"Could it be because... he's good-looking? And strong too?"

The thought suddenly popped into Wang Dong's mind, and he immediately shook his head violently.

"Pah! Pah! Pah! Wang Dong, what are you thinking! It's just... it's just that I can't beat him! Yes, that must be it!"

She kept hypnotizing herself.

Hearing the commotion behind him, Huo Yuhao touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed.

He walked to his locker, took out clean clothes, and prepared to take a shower to calm down.

"I took a shower."

He left those words behind and walked straight into the bathroom.

Huo Yuhao closed the bathroom door, turned on the cold water, and let out a long sigh of relief.

The cool water washing over his body gradually calmed his somewhat chaotic thoughts.

"What kind of situation is this..."

He smiled helplessly, shook his head, and stopped thinking about the erotic scene from just now.

Outside, Wang Dong was already dressed, sitting on the bed with his hands wrapped around his knees, burying his burning cheeks in them.

Unconsciously, she replayed in her mind the swift and decisive movements Huo Yuhao had made when he subdued her, and... the feel of his strong and powerful arms.

"Ahhh! I don't want to think about it anymore!"

She rubbed her hair in frustration, then collapsed onto the bed, covering her head with a pillow and letting out a series of unintelligible sobs.

Huo Yuhao quickly finished showering, dried himself off, and was about to change his clothes when he realized that he had only taken his pants and had forgotten his shirt.

"Tsk...really."

Helpless, he could only wrap himself in a bath towel and walk out.

Hearing the noise, Wang Dong subconsciously looked up and saw Huo Yuhao walking out shirtless.

The smooth, understated muscle lines, broad shoulders, and narrow waist, still glistening with water droplets, seemed to be bathed in a soft glow under the light streaming in from the window.

Wang Dong's face flushed red again, and she quickly looked away, but her words were still sharp: "You... why aren't you wearing any clothes again! Are you an exhibitionist!"

As Huo Yuhao walked toward the cabinet, he replied irritably, "Likewise, I had my reasons just now, you're just making false accusations first."

He found his shirt and quickly put it on.

"Okay, I'm going out to sell fish now. I'll be back later. Bye-bye."

Wang Dong was left alone in the dormitory. She stared blankly at the closed door, the image of that beautifully sculpted body lingering in her mind. "It's over... Wang Dong, you're hopeless..."

She let out a wail and buried herself under the covers again.

……

As evening approached, darkness fell.

After selling all the grilled fish he had prepared for the day, Huo Yuhao packed up his things and leisurely returned to his dormitory.

He also kept a golden-brown, crispy, and fragrant grilled fish wrapped in oil paper.

Pushing open the dormitory door, it was quiet inside. Huo Yuhao immediately saw a large bulge on Wang Dong's bed. The blanket covered her completely, not even a single hair was showing. She was clearly still "introverted".

Huo Yuhao touched his nose, wanting to laugh but also feeling a little guilty.

He walked to Wang Dong's bedside and gently poked the "rolled-up quilt" with his fingertip.

"Hey, don't be angry, it's my fault, okay?"

Huo Yuhao softened his tone.

"Here, I brought you some grilled fish, it's still warm, consider it my apology."

The blanket rolled up slightly, but there was no further reaction.

Huo Yuhao poked it again: "Are you really angry? I already apologized. This grilled fish was the fattest one I specially saved, and I sprinkled it with double the spices."

After a while, the edge of the blanket was quietly lifted a crack, and a pair of pinkish-blue eyes peeked out from inside, looking at Huo Yuhao and then at the grilled fish in his hand that was emitting an enticing aroma.

Huo Yuhao pushed the grilled fish forward.

The blanket twitched a few more times, and finally, Wang Dong's head popped out from under the blanket.

Her hair was a little messy, her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were somewhat evasive.

She glanced at Huo Yuhao, then at the grilled fish, her small nose twitched slightly, and finally, she awkwardly reached out and took the grilled fish, still unwilling to admit defeat.

"Hmph! Considering your attitude was somewhat sincere and you brought grilled fish, I'll reluctantly forgive you!"

As she spoke, she eagerly unwrapped the oil paper, and the enticing aroma wafted out even more intensely.

She carefully blew on it, then opened her mouth and took a small bite.

The outer skin is crispy and fragrant, while the inside is tender and juicy fish, with a unique flavor that explodes on the tongue when mixed with special spices.

Wang Dong's eyes widened instantly, and stars seemed to shine in his pinkish-blue eyes.

"Um--!!!"

She let out a satisfied, amazed nasal sound, abandoning all restraint, and immediately took another big bite, her cheeks bulging, chewing and mumbling her praises.

"So...so delicious! It's so good!"

Seeing how she was instantly conquered by the food and forgot all her unhappiness, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but laugh.

Ben Huo's grilled fish is highly praised by everyone who has tried it.

"Eat slowly, no one will compete with you."

Wang Dong didn't have time to pay him any attention. He quickly devoured the entire grilled fish, even sucking the bones until they were tasteless. He then licked his lips with a look of satisfaction.

She glanced at Huo Yuhao, who was packing his things, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Hey, Huo Yuhao, didn't you win two Xuan Shui Pills? You have one left, aren't you going to take it?"

Huo Yuhao shook his head and said, "No rush. I just took one, so the medicinal effects still need time to be fully absorbed, and my soul power also needs to settle. It will be more effective if I take it again after some time when my foundation is more solid."

"Oh."

Wang Dong responded, his fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of his clothes, his eyes darting around as if he were struggling with something.

Seeing her awkward demeanor, Huo Yuhao roughly guessed what was going on, and deliberately remained silent, waiting for her to speak.

Sure enough, after a while, Wang Dong said in her characteristic slightly arrogant tone, "That...that Martial Soul Fusion Skill...should we...um..."

Huo Yuhao smiled and replied, "Want to give it a try?"
