Su Xiaoqi found a suitable reason for herself.
It wasn't until a suffocating feeling in her chest that she realized Shen Yun was still pressing down on her.
She was only wearing a thin cotton undergarment, still a bit damp, clinging tightly to her body, revealing her curves clearly.
Speaking of which, the original owner's figure was quite well-proportioned, with curves where they should be and a shapely posterior.
"Lecher, scoundrel, you, calling yourself a scholar." Su Xiaoqi pushed Shen Yun while unleashing a torrent of curses, scorching him inside and out.
Shen Yun lazily got up and pointed at her.
Su Xiaoqi quickly grabbed her outer garment to cover herself and was about to unleash another barrage of verbal abuse when Shen Yun's sharp gaze silenced her.
"First, in a pressing situation, rules are bent. Second, the scoundrel is you, not me." Shen Yun said, pointing at his feet.
Su Xiaoqi looked down and saw two wild rabbits and two pheasants.
She suddenly understood. Shen Yun had heard noises outside the cave and thought a wild beast was about to attack, so he had instinctively tackled her to save her.
He just hadn't expected the intruders to be these small creatures.
As for their first kiss, it was due to her struggling.
In fact, it was she who took the opportunity to kiss him twice to upgrade her spatial dimension.
Come to think of it, she was the complete scoundrel!
Realizing this, Su Xiaoqi couldn't remain calm.
She tidied her clothes and whispered, "Um, I didn't mean to." But she had.
Shen Yun glanced at her. The woman before him was wearing a snow-white undergarment.
The skin exposed on her neck was fairer than snow, her face flushed red, and her long lashes fluttered, making her look utterly pitiable.
Thinking of the beautiful moment their lips had met just now.
His heart soared uncontrollably.
He still remembered the softness against his chest, his heart unable to find peace. He pointed to his lips and said hoarsely:
"You just did that to me, what do you say we do about it?"
Su Xiaoqi bit her lip, "I kissed you twice. At worst, I'll let you kiss me back another day."
She was resigned to it. After all, kissing twice wouldn't cost her anything, and it could even help her spatial dimension upgrade.
Shen Yun heard her say it so casually and thought she was indeed a capricious person, which was why she had done such things with others.
An inexplicable anger surged within him. He shoved her away, stood up, and moved the stone blocking the cave entrance.
The rain had stopped, the dark clouds had dispersed, and the sky was bright.
He turned back somewhat distractedly to call Su Xiaoqi home.
Su Xiaoqi didn't know what Shen Yun was acting up about, only that she seemed to have angered him.
Considering Shen Yun's importance to her, she had tried to appease him in various ways along the way.
She had even proactively put the wild rabbits and pheasants into her own basket.
In the end, she couldn't outdo Shen Yun, and he took both the items and the basket.
Along the way, Shen Yun completely ignored her deliberate attempts to please him.
Su Xiaoqi was met with a cold shoulder.
But to change her luck and upgrade her spatial dimension, she clenched her fists, determined to press on.
She would continue to be good to him, even if he were a block of ice, she would melt him with her warmth.
Su Xiaoqi silently cheered herself on.
As they descended the mountain, they were immediately surrounded by three people waiting at the foot of the mountain.
Shen Yun quickly stepped forward to greet them, "Eldest Uncle, Uncle, Little Sister."
"Ah, Eldest Brother, Sister-in-law, it's great that you're safe." Shen Xiaomei said, about to cry again.
Su Xiaoqi took out a handkerchief to comfort her.
Shen Yun's eldest uncle, Zhao Dashan, patted Shen Yun's shoulder and said happily:
"This is good, you're finally back.
I said it, the master at the temple predicted that good fortune favors the brave, and that bear couldn't do anything to you."
"It's good that you're back safe." Shen Yun's uncle, Zhao Liushun, also chimed in.
Shen Yun looked at the three concerned faces before him, a warmth flowing through his heart.
After all, they were his maternal relatives. Naturally, they would worry about him when he was in danger.
He reached to his back and took out a pheasant and a rabbit, handing them over.
The two initially declined before accepting, and after escorting them home and saying a few words to Mrs. Zhao, they left.
Su Xiaoqi watched the pheasant and rabbit being taken away, feeling a pang of reluctance.
But she knew they were elders who had braved danger to find them, so it was only proper to show filial piety.
As the people walked out of the courtyard, Su Xiaoqi's eyes remained fixed on Zhao Liushun, who was walking with a slight limp. She muttered to herself:
"That leg, perhaps I can..."
Before she could finish, Shen Xiaomei, who had been trying to hold back her tears, finally couldn't control herself and threw herself into Su Xiaoqi's arms, crying heartbrokenly:
"Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law, sob, sob, you scared me to death, I thought you were going to be eaten by the bear..."
Su Xiaoqi patted her and comforted her for a long time, only managing to calm her down by saying she needed to make medicine for Shen Erdan.
Alas, she was such a crybaby, always weeping. She wondered who she would marry in the future...
Wait, Su Xiaoqi's heart leaped. She suddenly remembered something, and the matter she had left behind at the city gate suddenly had a clue.
