The Killer's Cleansing Manual

Chapter 212: Asking for status!

The general's mansion was painted with dark blue rouge in the early morning. The servants were busy coming in and out. Occasionally, the noise of their conversations was so loud that it woke Ye Xi who was in the bed curtains.

She rubbed her head, turned around and looked at Liu He who was hugging her and breathing evenly.

Her gaze involuntarily fell to Liu He's lips, and her face instantly turned red as if blood was about to drip out.

Why did they kiss suddenly?

She couldn't think of a reasonable explanation, perhaps the atmosphere was just right, or perhaps she had always wanted to do this but had completely ignored it.

All in all, it feels good.

Ye Xi still remembers the feeling of Liu He pressing down on her with eyes full of tenderness, as if a light feather covered her body, and the fine fluff brushed against the sides of her face and the tip of her nose, bringing a lingering itch.

Last night she experienced the feeling of kissing for the first time. Afterwards she felt too shy. When she wanted to leave, Liu He gently pulled her hand.

"Stay and sleep with me? I won't do anything else."

Although this sentence was full of solicitation and did not contain any threat, Ye Xi was still pulled and could not move.

She even asked foolishly, "Really?"

At that time, Liu He was amused and laughed softly: "Yeah, really. As for the other things... I can't do them either."

Ye Xi only felt her face getting redder, so she simply kept silent to avoid saying more and making more mistakes.

As for what happened later... Liu He's arms were filled with warm fragrance. She couldn't help falling asleep while smelling it, and she didn't care about what happened afterwards. Maybe it was just as Liu He said, she did nothing, but just slept soundly.

but……

Since I've done such a thing, then... there should be a reputation, right?

Ye Xi was thinking and had no idea that Liu He had opened his eyes and was looking at her in a daze and chuckling.

She stared at him for a long time, and finally couldn't help but squeeze into Ye Xi's arms and hugged her neck: "Why are you daydreaming so early in the morning?"

Ye Xi's face turned even redder, and she didn't know where to put her hands. In the end, she just put them on Liu He's waist.

Liu He felt this weight, and the corners of her lips curled up in pleasure - she had thought last night that this person would run away early the next morning, but she didn't expect that not only did she not run away, but she was so proactive.

She anxiously enjoyed the warmth of the moment, which made her more uneasy than if it were stolen. She didn't know what to do with Ye Xi in the future, but her feelings pulled her so hard that she didn't want to withdraw.

Especially, Ye Xi also responded to her. This was something she had been looking forward to for many years. Now that it came true, how could she give it up?

She listened to Ye Xi's heartbeat, which was gradually accelerating, and her smile became harder to suppress.

The sunlight has moved from the window lattice to the head of the bed, and swayed on Liu He's eyelashes.

"We should get up."

"We should go see Father."

They both spoke at the same time, so that neither could hear what the other said, and then they said in unison - "What did you say?"

Liu He couldn't help laughing: "I said we should get up, what did Xier say?"

Ye Xi pursed her lips: "I say, we should go see our father, and your father as well."

Liu He's eyes gradually widened: "...Ah?"

It turns out that Ye Xi not only didn't run away, not only took the initiative, but even...ah?

Ye Xi was very serious. She helped Liu He up, and they sat opposite each other on the bed. Ye Xi took a deep breath and expressed her thoughts.

"I wasn't in a daze just now. I just felt that since we've become so close, we should..."

"Wait!" Liu He's cheeks heated up rapidly at what she said, "Intimacy is... where do we start?"

Ye Xi frowned and asked, "Have you forgotten that you kissed me last night?"

Liu He shook his head: "Of course I won't forget, I..."

How can I put this? My understanding of intimacy is different from yours? How can I say that?

Fortunately, Ye Xi's expression eased a little: "So I think we should go see father."

Liu He was moved and amused by Ye Xi's almost rigid stubbornness. She held Ye Xi's hand and said, "Xi'er... I..."

Ye Xi summoned all her patience and looked at Liu He's face quietly, her expression seeming to say, "You talk, I'm listening."

This made Liu He even more unable to speak. She hesitated for a long time before finding a hint that was easier to say.

"I...my identity cannot be revealed to others, but you are a general destined to be looked up to and gazed upon by everyone."

Ye Xi understood the meaning of this sentence instantly. She looked at her hand being held in silence, and after a while she asked, "What about the kiss last night?"

Liu He said without hesitation: "I can't help myself. I have been attracted to you and coveted you for a long time, so I offended you."

"You can't be the only one who's at fault." Although Ye Xi felt aggrieved, she reasoned regardless of the situation. "I allowed it, so it's not an offense. Although I realized it a little late, but..."

She raised her head to meet Liu He's gaze, her tone very calm: "I think it is a mutual affection. Even if it is hard to control, it is between you and me, not just you."

She did feel a little aggrieved by Liu He's rejection, but she knew the reason why Liu He rejected her, and this reason was made clear to her before they became intimate.

Liu He had a good sense of propriety. She just said that she liked herself and she didn't cause herself any trouble.

She also had half of the desire for what happened last night, so it can't be said that Liu He just got up and didn't recognize her.

Liu He pulled her hand harder, his voice trembling slightly: "...What did you say? Xi'er, you, you say it again."

Ye Xi didn't say anything. She just looked at Liu He and repeated what she had just said over and over again in her mind. Finally, she got out of bed.

Because she was feeling a little confused, she urgently needed to sort it out.

"Xi'er..." Liu He stared at her empty palms in a daze. She was worried that Ye Xi would be disappointed, or angry and aggrieved, and would be annoyed with her and ignore her again.

But Ye Xi turned around and explained the reason to her, leaving her no room to have any bad thoughts.

"I just feel really confused. I don't regret what happened last night, nor do I blame you. The obstacles between us have been there from the beginning; they didn't just suddenly appear now."

Liu He breathed a sigh of relief and nodded slowly: "Okay, then... where are you going?"

Ye Xi lowered her eyelashes: "To see my father and your father."

Liu He was stunned. Ye Xi added, "Because I still want to explore a possible possibility. You don't have to come with me. I'll go ask and come back soon."

After she finished speaking, she left, the door opened and closed again, and only a dazed Liu He was left in the room.

Um? ? ? ?

It took her a while to realize that the person she liked was such a... worry-free type in terms of relationships?

If you feel something, just kiss. After the kiss, hold your breath and go to your father to ask for status?

How can that work? !

How could she be allowed to go alone?!

Liu He hurriedly got out of bed, changed his clothes, and then went out and headed straight for the inner courtyard.
