Liu Erlong didn't speak. She buried her face in Xuan Hao's neck, wrapped her arms around his neck, and gave her answer with her actions—she hugged him even tighter.
The night was deep, and the only sound was the rustling of leaves in the breeze.
Time passed second by second. Nestled in Xuan Hao's arms, enjoying the tranquility, Liu Erlong suddenly felt an indescribable sense of guilt and panic.
Because she could clearly feel something pressing against her from below.
Liu Erlong was no naive young girl. Although she lacked practical experience, she had lived for over forty years, and in an instant, she realized what it was.
She was only wearing a thin, black silk nightgown, and the two were in this intimate position, their bodies almost completely pressed together.
For a young man like Xuan Hao, who is not yet twenty years old, full of vigor and lustful by nature, it would be strange if he didn't react when a soft, fragrant woman was in his arms.
While she could understand it, she was completely at a loss as to what to do.
She hadn't completely overcome the hurdle in her heart, and she couldn't truly bring herself to take that final step. Right now, she was more attached to the sense of security and peace of mind that Xuan Hao provided.
However, clearly feeling the astonishing heat and pent-up energy beneath her, Liu Erlong felt that since the other person had come all this way to serve her wholeheartedly for most of the day, it would be inappropriate and too torturous for her to just sit there doing nothing.
But if she were to do something... what could she possibly do? What if things accidentally escalated and went too far?
Just as Liu Erlong was stiff and at a loss, lost in her own thoughts, Xuan Hao seemed to notice her embarrassment.
He didn't say anything to expose her, but stood up again and steadily carried Liu Erlong back to the room inside the house.
After gently placing her on the soft bed, Xuan Hao lay down beside her. This time, however, he didn't press down on her from the front, but instead came up from behind, wrapping his arms around her waist and pulling her into his embrace.
This action instantly made Liu Erlong extremely tense, her back taut.
This guy... could it be that he really can't hold back and is going to force himself on her?
Liu Erlong's heart was pounding so hard it felt like it would jump out of her throat. She had absolutely no idea how to refuse him. If she forcefully pushed him away now, wouldn't she seem too dramatic, too heartless? What if he was genuinely hurt or disappointed?
With her mind in complete chaos, Liu Erlong steeled herself, tightly closed her eyes, and her eyelashes trembled uncontrollably, like prey awaiting judgment.
However, the expected storm did not materialize.
Xuan Hao simply held her quietly from behind, showing no intention of taking it any further or actually barging in. He just paced back and forth outside the door.
This torment of being neither here nor there was causing Liu Erlong's mental state to deteriorate further. Every slight touch felt like a weak electric current coursing through her body, making her breath catch and her palms sweat.
What the hell is this bastard doing?!
Noticing the tension and slight trembling of the woman in his arms, Xuan Hao leaned close to her ear, his voice noticeably hoarse and teasing: "I took good care of you all afternoon, and now that I'm feeling so unwell... you should at least think of a way to help me, right?"
Liu Erlong was utterly humiliated and indignant, her cheeks burning as if they could bleed. She gritted her teeth, her voice barely audible, yet trembling with a mixture of anger and embarrassment: "But what exactly is this... this ambiguity? Are you deliberately tormenting me?"
Upon hearing this complaint, Xuan Hao chuckled softly, the vibration of his chest clearly transmitted through the thin fabric.
“I’m not going because I’m considering that you haven’t completely overcome that hurdle in your heart yet, and that’s my way of respecting you; as for not getting off…” Xuan Hao paused, then retorted confidently, “Holding a warm and soft woman in my arms is a normal man’s instinct, and it’s my way of respecting myself.”
He tightened his arm around Liu Erlong's waist slightly: "Besides, we're a man and a woman alone together, and the atmosphere has already gotten this far. If we just sit here under the covers and chat without doing anything, would that be a waste of this beautiful evening?"
Unable to endure the agonizing psychological torment of being slowly torn apart, Liu Erlong abruptly turned around. Her chest heaved violently, and her watery eyes glared fiercely at Xuan Hao, who was standing inches away from her. She demanded angrily, "Then what exactly do you want to do?! I... I don't know any of this nonsense!"
"It's okay if you don't know how, I can teach you. This kind of thing is actually not difficult at all."
Xuan Hao was not afraid of her harmless glare at all. Instead, he looked at her leisurely and said, "However, you have to cooperate with my instructions. Otherwise... if this is not done properly, it can be very dangerous and can easily hurt your body."
Liu Erlong took a deep breath, as if she were about to go to the execution ground, and glared at him through gritted teeth: "Enough nonsense, what exactly do we do?"
"You can use your imagination and try it out on your own first," Xuan Hao said with a smile. "Or, you can do what I did for you this afternoon, and reciprocate by helping me relax a bit too."
As he spoke, Xuan Hao, as if by magic, gently placed the bottle of amber-colored special essential oil on the bedside table.
Then, he leaned back and lay flat on the soft bed, his hands casually behind his head.
"The tools are all prepared. Now, you are free to pick whatever you like."
Chapter 277 A Whole Night of Reverse "Serving"
……
The next morning, the rising sun shone into the room through the window.
Liu Erlong got out of bed early, hurriedly grabbed the clothes next to him, and wrapped himself up tightly.
But this wasn't because she had rested enough and was full of energy.
On the contrary, she had two light dark circles under her eyes and hadn't slept a wink all night!
Xuan Hao did indeed take good care of her during the day yesterday, helping her relax both physically and mentally.
But who could have imagined that the price behind this would be so heavy—in order to repay this favor, she was forced to be pinned down on the bed by this bastard and "served" him for the entire night without any power to resist!
This is even more unscrupulous than loan sharking!
Moreover, what terrified Liu Erlong the most was that Xuan Hao's physical abilities were simply outrageously superhuman. His vitality was as vigorous as a tireless beast; no wonder he dared to provoke so many young girls outside. If he didn't have some real skills, he would have been annihilated long ago.
Recalling the madness of last night, Liu Erlong still felt her face burning. That bastard used all sorts of tricks, all sorts of strange moves on her. Except for that last step that crossed the line, he did almost everything he could and couldn't do!
Seeing Liu Erlong huddled in the corner of the bed, looking like she was guarding against a thief, Xuan Hao, leaning against the headboard, couldn't help but let out a muffled laugh: "Why are you covering yourself up so tightly? Last night, what part of your body didn't I see? What part didn't I touch? Now you're only thinking about guarding against me, isn't it a bit too late?"
"Shut up!" Liu Erlong glared at him, her face darkening, her voice filled with exhaustion and warning. "You'd better calm down and stop going crazy. I really can't take it anymore!"
"Hey, what are you saying?" Xuan Hao shrugged helplessly. "Am I the kind of person who lacks self-control and sense of propriety?"
He sat up, and retorted righteously, "Besides, all that trouble last night was because you were incompetent! The essential oil I brewed was so effective; it's supposed to relax muscles and improve blood circulation during massage. But you just messed around with it haphazardly. You even got angry when you pressed the wrong spots and tried to use brute force against me."
Xuan Hao pointed to himself, feigning lingering fear as he joked, "Please, it's only because I'm physically strong. If it were an ordinary person, you would have crippled them long ago. Don't you think that if you really damaged my body, wouldn't you be the one suffering and living a life of widowhood?"
"You...you can stop talking now!" Liu Erlong's face instantly turned red to her ears, so ashamed and angry that she wished she could disappear into the ground. She didn't want to recall those chaotic and suffocatingly embarrassing scenes from last night at all.
"Alright, alright, I won't say anything more." Xuan Hao knew when to stop, and slowly dressed while shaking his head and muttering, "Sigh, the world is going to the dogs. She's a complete scumbag who doesn't care about people after she's done her job."
Liu Erlong took a deep breath and resisted the urge to strangle him.
After getting dressed, Xuan Hao walked up to her and extended his hand: "Let's go, get ready, let's go for a walk."
"Walk?" Liu Erlong panicked and instinctively took a half step back. "Where...where to?"
"Is that even a question? Of course, I'll drag you out and let you stroll around Blue Tyrant Academy openly, so everyone can see." Xuan Hao looked at her as if it were the most natural thing in the world. "We're already like this now, do you think I'm someone you can't be seen in public and can only be your secret lover who dies in the light of day?"
“But…” Liu Erlong’s eyes immediately became flustered and guilty.
Not only are there so many students watching at Blue Tyrant Academy now, but more importantly, Yu Xiaogang and Flander's Shrek gang are all here too. She only met Yu Xiaogang a few days ago, and now she's openly holding hands with Xuan Hao. How is she supposed to face this?
Seeing Liu Erlong's bewildered state, Xuan Hao stepped forward and gently pulled her into his arms.
"Don't be afraid. I told you last night that I'll handle whatever happens. Even if the sky falls, I'll hold it up for you."
Xuan Hao patted her back reassuringly: "The best thing about being with me is that you don't need to feel any pressure. If you want to face something, you can solve it yourself; if you encounter a mess that you can't handle or don't want to face, you just need to hide behind me. I can always help you smooth over all the troubles."
He lowered his head slightly and whispered in Liu Erlong's ear, "That's why I say, when a woman looks for a man, she must keep her eyes open and find someone who is responsible and can handle things."
"Look back at the rubbish you blindly picked up before?"
"When faced with gossip and societal pressure, he doesn't dare utter a sound, and turns around and abandons you. Is that kind of coward worth your worry and fear?"
Stunned by Xuan Hao's incisive words, Liu Erlong opened her mouth, only to find herself speechless once again.
Xuan Hao knew when to stop and didn't continue to provoke her with words. He knew very well that some painful memories could be used as a catalyst for emotions, whether in jokes or occasional teasing. But if you talked about them too much, it would be like rubbing salt into someone's wounds, which would only hurt her.
However, seeing Liu Erlong sitting on the edge of the bed looking lost and somewhat absent-minded, Xuan Hao's eyes darted around, and he very naturally reached out and gave her pert curves a firm pinch.
"Snapped!"
The crisp touch jolted Liu Erlong awake, instantly snapping her out of her reverie. She jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, glaring at him with annoyance and embarrassment: "Are you kidding me! Didn't we just agree not to do it?!"
"Since you're not going to do it anymore, then cheer up." Xuan Hao innocently spread his hands and said confidently, "I'm not some ugly, worthless nobody. On the contrary, taking a genius like me out with you will definitely make you look good, no matter where you go, right?"
Seeing Liu Erlong's still conflicted expression, as if she hadn't mentally prepared herself, Xuan Hao raised an eyebrow: "Of course, if you're really too embarrassed to walk out on your own..."
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly stepped forward and swept Liu Erlong up in his arms.
"Hey! What are you doing! Put me down!" Liu Erlong was bewildered and was about to wave her arms to stop him from going crazy.
However, Xuan Hao didn't give her a chance to refuse. With a thought, he activated teleportation.
"Shh! Shh! Shh!"
After several precise teleportations, the surrounding scenery changed wildly, as if they were watching a game of speed. In the blink of an eye, the two appeared without warning in the center of the spacious and bright cafeteria of Blue Tyrant Academy.
At this time, it was the peak time for students and teachers at Blue Tyrant Academy to eat breakfast as they were about to start their morning classes.
Seeing Xuan Hao and Liu Erlong suddenly appear out of nowhere in the middle of the cafeteria in a rather ambiguous "princess carry" position, the once noisy cafeteria instantly fell into a deathly silence. Everyone stood there dumbfounded, holding their rice bowls and eating their buns.
Noticing the dozens, even hundreds, of gazes directed at her, Liu Erlong felt her head buzz, her neck turning bright red with shame and indignation. She dared not look up at anyone, instinctively burying her face in Xuan Hao's chest, like an ostrich burying its head in the sand.
After a brief moment of stunned silence, the onlookers' eyes instantly lit up with gossip. They exchanged bewildered glances, their eyes screaming: Seriously?! The dean's playing something this exciting so early in the morning?!
Feeling Liu Erlong trembling like a quail in his arms, Xuan Hao lowered his head and chuckled softly in her ear: "If you want to keep holding me like this, I have no objection at all. But shouldn't we eat something now? I tossed and turned all night last night, and even if you're not hungry, I'm starving."
Xuan Hao's deliberately unhushed and information-packed words were like a bombshell dropped in the quiet cafeteria.
Upon hearing this, Liu Erlong nearly collapsed. Helplessly, she broke free from Xuan Hao's embrace, and as soon as her feet touched the ground, she noticed the gossipy gazes of the teachers and students around her.
That sense of shame instantly transformed into real anger. The hot-tempered Dean Lan Ba, his face flushed, abruptly turned around and unleashed a series of thunderous roars at the surrounding crowd:
"Don't you all have anything to do?! What are you looking at! Get your ass up and go to class!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the crowd, who had been waiting to watch the drama unfold, suddenly trembled with fear, as if they had seen the terrifying scene of the mother tyrannosaurus about to breathe fire.
Everyone forgot about breakfast and, carrying their plates, fled frantically out of the cafeteria, fearing that if they were even a step too late, the enraged dean would grab them and subject them to a physical exorcism.
Chapter 278 The Strategic Value Behind Tang San's Hidden Weapons
……
The juiciest gossip in the cafeteria spread like wildfire, reaching every corner of Blue Tyrant Academy within minutes.
Soon, the news reached Ning Rongrong and the others who had also been resting in the Blue Tyrant Academy guest rooms the previous night.
The girls were immediately displeased.
"That bastard!" Ning Rongrong slammed her hand on the table and stood up angrily. "He clearly said he would come back to find us after finishing his business yesterday afternoon! And what happened? He came back without even saying hello, and he even got together with Dean Erlong at Lanba Academy behind our backs?!"
Xiao Wu, hands on her hips, puffed out her cheeks and her rabbit ears standing up high, said angrily, "That's right! We live right here at Blue Tyrant Academy! Would it kill him to come over and say hello?! We all thought he was still soaking in the spring water of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well!"
Dugu Yan sneered, cracking her knuckles as she cracked her knuckles: "Looks like we've been too lenient lately, making this guy think he can get away with it. Let's go! Let's go check it out!"
Even Zhu Zhuqing, who is usually aloof and taciturn, was infected by this atmosphere of shared hatred and was forced to join the "condemnation army".
The group, filled with anger and murderous intent, headed towards the cafeteria.
