Chapter 126: 53.1

Act Indecently (1)

Seeing that Mu Heng had not come over, Shi An raised his eyes and looked toward the door.

The other person was standing in the doorway quietly, his eyebrows slightly knitted, his expression unpredictable and he had no idea what this person was thinking about.

Shi An rested his chin on the pillow in his arms and tilted his head in confusion. “What’s wrong?”

Mu Heng looked at him fixedly but eventually moved his eyes away and walked into the room.

“... Nothing.”

He stepped over to the side of the bed and sat down.

The bed in the master bedroom was large enough to accommodate almost three or four people at once. Although they slept in the same bed, the distance between them was still considerable.

This was fine with Shi An.

When he saw that Mu Heng had moved to the other side of the bed, he happily unfolded his quilt and got in, tucking in the corners and rolling himself up into a round barrel.

Shi An pulled the quilt up to the tip of his nose, raised his eyelashes, which were tinted golden brown by the light, and said, “Good night!”

Mu Heng’s gaze met the other man’s dark, clear eyes, and his heart rhythm was slightly disrupted.

He averted his eyes. “Get up first.”

“Why?” Shi An squinted his eyes warily, shrinking under the blanket. “You have to do it after agreeing to it. You can’t back out.”

Mu Heng said,“... Your hair is still wet.”

The young man’s semi-damp black hair was scattered on the pillow, staining the surface and giving it a slightly darker shade of color.

Shi An pulled the quilt under his eyes. “It doesn’t matter. Regardless, it will dry up quickly!”

Mu Heng beckoned at Shi An. “Come here.”

Shi An: “...”

Mu Heng’s icy face slightly thawed, revealing a little helplessness. “I won’t back out.”

Only then did Shi An skeptically get out of the blanket and move in Mu Heng’s direction.

Mu Heng reached his hand to him, pausing at a distance, and the moisture instantly evaporated in the next second.

He was not wearing gloves. His fingers were pale and slender, his joints sharp and well-defined, lean and vigorous.

Although not touched directly, the heat of the human palm still came through clearly and distinctly. Shi An’s eyes narrowed slightly as he subconsciously pressed himself toward the direction from which the heat was coming.

The soft ends of the young man’s hair swept past Mu Heng’s fingertips.

Mu Heng’s hand was steady, never trembling even in life-and-death situations, but it involuntarily trembled slightly at this moment.

He quickly withdrew his hand. “That’s enough.”

Shi An rubbed his dry hair and squinted his eyes in satisfaction. “Thank you.”

He burrowed back under the covers, curling himself into a ball as he had done earlier.

The familiar cold scent of the man faintly lingered in his nose.

The exhaustion caused by the ups and downs of the day’s moods and the excessive consumption of his magic was now like a tidal wave that swallowed Shi An entirely.

He lifted his heavy eyelids and in his blurred vision, he could faintly see the bright, shiny silver hair of a human not far away.

Shi An yawned contentedly and buried his head in the soft pillow, muttering something in a muffled voice before falling very quickly into a deep sleep.

A dead silence fell over the room.

After a long time, the man’s low, slightly muffled voice rang out. “... Good night.”

***

When Shi An opened his eyes the following day, it was long past dawn and the bed beside him was empty. Presumably, the person had left long ago.

He stretched and rolled around in the big bed, flopping down on the soft covers as if he had no bones.

Ah... Sure enough, the sleep was satisfactory.

A large portion of the magic power that had been depleted was now slowly making its way back up to replenish.

It was a pity he couldn’t pile out the treasure he had just acquired, or it would have counted as a perfect night’s rest.

It was just that for some reason... he seemed to be dreaming again about his tail being pinched by Mu Heng the other night.

But it should only be a dream. After all, his tail has long since been retracted.

Shi An slumped over and reached for his phone.

When he switched on the screen, a series of messages popped up, scaring him.

Although his knowledge of human script had increased daily, he still had some difficulty reading a large amount of text, so he didn’t bother reading it and called Zhao She directly.

As soon as the call was answered, Zhao She’s impatient voice came through, “My God, I finally found you. You didn’t even inform me and disappeared last night, scaring me. I was insanely anxious after you were gone. After looking for the person in charge, I eventually found out that the people from the Bureau had taken you. What’s wrong? Did something happen? Are you okay now?”

Shi An silently held the phone a little further away.

“I’m okay... it’s just that some previous matters hadn’t been dealt with.”

Zhao She sighed with relief. “That’s good.”

He continued, “Speaking of which, did you know something significant happened in the Aiwen Academy? Do you still remember the principal making a speech that day? He had been attacked and is still in the hospital now. I’m not clear about the details, but he seems quite miserable...”

Shi An grunted coldly.

—That is what he deserved!

Zhao She did not catch it. “What?”

“I didn’t say anything. You’ve misheard it.” The young man’s voice was soft and clear, and it was impossible to tell that he was the one behind the attack on the principal.

Zhao She said, “But speaking of which, I don’t understand something...”

Shi An said, “What is it?”

Zhao She’s voice carried a bit of suspicion.

“The news is firmly blocked this time. Although I don’t understand, it should involve a significant major event. I initially thought the strength system’s academic exchange would be postponed or canceled after such a severe accident. After all, we were also aware that the strength system’s academic exchange has never been that esteemed before... However, someone from above informed us today that the event would still be held as usual.”

Shi An revealed a thoughtful look.

Zhao She’s voice came from the other end of the phone. “Speaking of which, will you still participate in the academic exchange this time?”

Shi An returned to his senses and said, “Of course. Inform me quickly if there’s any news.”

“Of course.”

After confirming again that Shi An was fine, Zhao She hung up the call.
