Chapter 62: Chapter 62 Edible Ice Sea Flower

As the mask was removed, Xiao Jinsheng gazed upon the exquisite foreign features beneath it, meeting a pair of deep and alluring eyes.

Perhaps because he always wore a mask and lingered within the shadows of the night, Li’s complexion was starkly pale, while his smiling lips were as red as dripping blood.

A thought crossed his mind, and beneath his black hair, a pair of sharp demon horns manifested.

"I remember your horns used to be round when you were little," Xiao Jinsheng recalled.

Back then, Li had a pair of small round horns that blended into his hair so well they were barely noticeable.

Curious, she reached out, wanting to touch the demon horns and experience their texture. A slender and powerful demon tail wound around her waist and lifted her from the water’s surface.

Li leaned back against the stone wall of the hot spring, his brow arched. "I can’t let you touch them just yet."

"Then let me go!" Xiao Jinsheng jabbed the small tip of the demon tail with a huff.

Li swiftly pulled her back into the water with his tail, cupped her face in his hands, and gently rubbed. "You’re not hard to tease at all."

With that, he fetched an Ice Sea Flower floating on the surface of the water and presented it to Xiao Jinsheng. "I won’t tease you anymore; take this as an apology. How about that?"

"No way." Xiao Jinsheng snatched the Ice Sea Flower and replied with a laugh, shaking her head. "This flower was mine to begin with."

"If you want to apologize, you’d better come up with a new gift."

"So domineering." Li chuckled softly as he grasped her wrist and lowered his head to bite into the petal of the Ice Sea Flower still in her hand.

The water-dappled ice-blue petals pressed against his lips.

Li held the back of Xiao Jinsheng’s head as he seized the petal and leaned close, pressing a kiss to her.

As the kiss ended, Xiao Jinsheng could still taste the delicate sweetness on her lips.

"Does this apology meet your satisfaction?"

The moment the petal entered her mouth, it dissolved instantly into water during the kiss. That faint sweetness left her mind particularly clear.

"What exactly is this flower?" Xiao Jinsheng asked curiously.

"It’s a treasure," Li replied with a mysterious smile.

"Are you going to tell me or not?" Xiao Jinsheng twirled the flower’s stem and swept the bloom from Li’s throat down to the corner of his lips.

"I’ll tell you later," Li replied, holding the petal between his lips, his crimson eyes sparkling as he leaned closer to her.

The starry sky shimmered above the hot spring in the domain, with meteors occasionally streaking past.
