Chapter 431: Firefly Forest Date

Chapter 431 Firefly Forest Date

After the bath, Shen Que carried Wu Yue out of the bathroom, kissing her all the while.

Wu Yue pushed Shen Que away. "Would you just put me down? I can walk by myself! And can you put some clothes on?!"

After giving her one last hard kiss, Shen Que set Wu Yue down and shrugged. "This is my room. Even if I run around naked, you can't tell me what to do."

Wu Yue, "..." Fine, fine! Your turf, you win!!

As he spoke, Shen Que began changing clothes, and flustered, Wu Yue looked away.

They had once been so intimate... It was always Shen Que who blushed and felt shy because of her teasing. Now, the tables had completely turned!

Shen Que put on a black shirt and black dress pants, then walked up to Wu Yue. He looked down at her and said, "Help me with the buttons."

Wu Yue felt she wasn’t up to this task. With Shen Que’s currently cool, collected expression saying such things, her hands were sure to tremble.

Wu Yue said quickly, "You do it yourself. I’ll wait outside for you."

Before she could finish, Shen Que had already grabbed her hand and placed it on his shirt.

Holding her hand, he began buttoning it up slowly.

He said casually, "Don’t be nervous."

Wu Yue lowered her head, her ears turning red. "Shen Que, you said you wouldn’t lay a finger on me."

And now? He had touched her all over. If Shen Que hadn’t genuinely intended to take her out, it wouldn’t have stopped at just a bath.

Shen Que, "If I hadn’t said that, how would I have gotten you to come to me so willingly?"

Wu Yue looked up in surprise, and Shen Que wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her close.

Wu Yue’s hands instinctively pressed against his bare chest. His open collar revealed his well-defined chest, abs, and the Adonis belt, all clearly visible.

Wu Yue’s breathing became uneven again. Just as she was about to struggle, Shen Que released her and began buttoning his shirt himself.

As he buttoned, he kept his head down, his eyes fixed intently on Wu Yue.

One button after another, all the way up to the collar. He put on his sleeve garters and adjusted his cuffs.

Shen Que, "Let’s go."

Wu Yue’s face flushed, her heart racing. "..." This person’s gaze is really becoming more and more unsubtle!!!

Wu Yue’s eyes lingered on the sleeve garters. Shen Que glanced at her but gave nothing away.

Shen Que asked her, "Where do you want to go?"

Wu Yue shook her head. "I’m not sure either."

Shen Que, "Let’s go, then. We’ll head to the Firefly Forest south of World City. This is the time when fireflies are most active."

The Firefly Forest—Wu Yue felt a flicker of anticipation.

But when they arrived and saw the fireflies, each as large as a ball due to the evil energy running rampant, with explosive attacks as powerful as grenades, fiercely charging around and attacking randomly—

Both of them fell into silence at the same time. "..."

Wu Yue was blown away and couldn't help but clap, "Whoa, they're seriously active. What a truly unforgettable experience."

She finally got to see Shen Que speechless.

Shen Que was so choked up he was speechless, "…"

Shen Que was absolutely furious. If he’d known they were coming to see this damn thing, he might as well have gone all out back in the bathroom!!

Wu Yue bit back a smile at the corner of her lips. Shen Que gritted his teeth, "Don’t laugh."

Wu Yue, "Oh."

She lowered her head and broke into a huge grin.

Shen Que couldn’t help but let out a small smile too.

In the end, Shen Que still pulled out his trident and killed all those fireflies that were eyeing them hungrily.

Wu Yue, "How did you know about this place?"

Shen Que, "I stumbled on it once by accident."

Wu Yue looked away, "Have you brought anyone else here before?"

Shen Que pulled Wu Yue in front of him, "Look at me, and I’ll tell you."

Wu Yue’s wavering gaze met Shen Que’s, but before she could get an answer, Shen Que’s kiss was already on her.

He held Wu Yue tightly, kissing her over and over again, giving her no room to escape.

Unlike his previous carefulness, every kiss now was filled with urgency and a strong sense of possessiveness and aggression, leaving Wu Yue’s mind blank and her body weak.

Wu Yue was kissed so intensely by him that she could barely stand. His burning hand pressed against her back through the thin fabric, and Wu Yue leaned entirely against him, allowing Shen Que to do whatever he wanted.

His kisses fell densely behind Wu Yue’s ear as he told her, word for word:

"No one, only you."

"Wu Yue, look at me. You clearly love me like this."

Wu Yue slowly opened her eyes and looked at Shen Que, her heart racing.

Shen Que’s hand rested over her heart, and he let out a low chuckle, "Wu Yue, your heart is beating so fast."

Wu Yue tried to push him away, but Shen Que’s voice turned husky, "Don’t move around. This is your own doing. Don’t blame me for not keeping our agreement."

Wu Yue was completely defenseless against Shen Que, "…When have you ever kept our agreement?"

Shen Que’s gaze remained fixed on Wu Yue’s face. She was clearly turned on, a look he had only seen on her at the very end of their encounters before.

But now, even if the process wasn’t exactly romantic, Wu Yue truly loved everything he was doing.

So much so that even as he kept testing his limits, Wu Yue silently allowed it, accepting it all with shyness.

If he could see more of Wu Yue like this, Shen Que thought taking it slow wasn’t so bad after all.

However,

On the return trip in the shuttle, Shen Que pinned Wu Yue in the main cockpit.

Shen Que, "I'm moving back in today."

Wu Yue firmly disagreed. Given Shen Que's current state, he could practically devour her completely!

Shen Que scoffed, "If you don’t want me to storm your defenses so quickly, then give me a little more incentive."

Wu Yue turned to look at him, her courage faltering. "Shen Que, sometimes you still have to hold back a little."

Shen Que pulled her closer, shaking his head. "Wu Yue, before, I was afraid you’d run away, so I kept controlling myself to avoid scaring you. But now that you’re not afraid at all—in fact, you even like it—why should I keep pretending?"

Wu Yue, "...Actually, I’m really scared. I don’t even dare look at you."

Shen Que, "That’s not fear. You’re afraid you’ll like it too much, give in to desire, and then I’ll do whatever I want."

Wu Yue looked up in surprise. Shen Que immediately pressed her against the console, leaning in to kiss her. His hand tightened around her waist through her dress as he moved closer.

Shen Que’s overwhelming presence left Wu Yue with nowhere to escape, completely enveloping her. His intense, feverish kisses rained down on her like a sudden storm.

Wu Yue was swept away by the sheer intensity. Her hands fell weakly onto Shen Que’s arms, instinctively gripping his sleeve garters.

Shen Que let out a low chuckle. "You like these."

Wu Yue pulled her hand back. "I don’t."

Shen Que grabbed her hand and placed it back on his arm. "You clearly do. Do I look good wearing them?"

Wu Yue’s face flushed red. "Shen Que!"

Shen Que suddenly stood up and began unhurriedly unbuttoning his shirt, his gaze never leaving Wu Yue’s face.

Wu Yue lowered her head, reaching behind her to fasten the dress buttons Shen Que had undone.

Shen Que, "If you fasten them now, I’ll just tear them off later."

Wu Yue looked at him, her breath hitched. "Shen Que!"

Shen Que leaned in again, taking Wu Yue’s hand and placing it on his exposed chest. With an icy, untouchable demeanor, he slowly uttered the most brazen lines:

"I told you, give me a little sweetness.

Wu Yue, while I’m still willing to negotiate with you, you’d better decide quickly.

Otherwise, once we reach the base and I get busy, I won’t have a moment to spare to talk."

Wu Yue looked at Shen Que, her face crimson. In her flickering gaze, Shen Que curved his lips in a satisfied smirk, sweeping her into his arms without hesitation and reaching once again for the dress buttons she had just fastened.
