I've been transported to the orc continent.

Chapter 168: Only One Touch

Bai Ling's two lion ears also popped out.

Bai Ling's beast form is a white lion, and his ears are naturally white as well. Although Yue told Bai Ling to close his eyes, he kept staring at Bai Ling. The moment Bai Ling's ears popped out, Yue saw them.

Yue had seen Bai Ling's beast ears many times and even touched them, but this was the first time he had ever seen Bai Ling's beast ears appear in human form.

Its nearly triangular white ears were very conspicuous in the darkness, and it twitched excitedly as it was being watched.

Yue's entire attention was focused on those animal ears. They were so fluffy and soft; they must feel wonderful to touch.

He did just that. Yue reached out and, before Bai Ling could even notice, touched Bai Ling's head and gently pinched it.

It felt really good to the touch, soft and smooth, and still warm to the touch. Yue followed her heart and pinched it several more times with her fingertips.

Bai Ling was stunned!

He didn't expect Yue to pinch his ear without even asking his opinion. Yue's fingertips weren't hot, they were even a little cool, but the scorching heat still exploded from where the two were in contact, and then spread throughout Bai Ling's body in an instant, even making his face burn.

“Yue, how could you,” Bai Ling stammered, “How could you touch my ear? No, how could you…”

Bai Ling's breathing became heavy, and she couldn't even speak.

Because Yue gently touched his ear, not pinched it, but rubbed it with her fingertips.

Bai Ling's body suddenly tensed up, even her ears straightened up, but Yue seemed not to notice, and gently pinched Bai Ling's ear again.

When Yue withdrew her hand, her entire face turned red.

In the darkness, he couldn't see Bai Ling's eyes, but he could feel a resentful yet intense light locking onto him.

The gaze, both gentle and fierce, locked onto him. Even when facing a powerful blue-eyed beast in the wild, the hunter would not panic, but now he subconsciously tensed up, and his breathing became erratic.

Yue's intuition told him that he should do something at this time, otherwise something "bad" would definitely happen next.

Yue's throat was dry, and he mustered his courage to whisper, "Ling, you too, you can touch my ears too." Yue's wolf ears trembled slightly, as if shy or welcoming. "Then we're even."

Suddenly, a clap of thunder sounded outside, and a bolt of lightning exploded, bringing a sliver of light into the cave. It was through this sliver of light that Yue saw the expression on Ling's face.

Ling's dark eyes were like vortexes, flashing with a light that made Yue's heart tremble. Ling's usually gentle expression had turned crazy and even distorted, making Yue even want to run away.

The light appeared for only a moment, and the cave quickly returned to darkness. Yue heard Ling chuckle softly, her laughter still gentle, and her tone as tender as ever: "Alright, then I'll touch Yue's ears, and we'll be even."

Yue curled up into a ball, his white ears on his head twitching involuntarily. His voice was tinged with shyness: "Okay then, just once."

Yue repeated, "You can only touch it once."

After receiving permission, Bai Ling reached out and gently touched Yue's ear with a touch as light as a feather.

Moon's ears twitched, as if it wanted to hide, but unfortunately, it was already being held by the big bad wolf. Even if it tried to hide, where could it go?

Yue's ears were burning hot, so hot that Bai Ling felt like he was about to catch fire. He pinched Yue's ears with his five fingers and gently squeezed them.

This time, not only the ears, but even Yue's body shuddered.

Thunder rumbled outside, and streaks of lightning flashed across the distant sky, but they couldn't reach the cave.

The cave was still pitch black, and Bai Ling couldn't see Yue's expression at all. However, in Bai Ling's imagination, Yue's eyes were probably red at this moment, just like a little rabbit. Her eyes were red and her expression was panicked. She wanted to hide but couldn't, so she could only cower in a ball and let the big bad wolf do whatever it wanted.

Just thinking about that scene made Bai Ling feel like she was about to explode.

His fingers, out of control, pinched Yue's ear again, this time with more force, causing Yue's ear to tremble even more violently.

Just then, a bolt of lightning struck, illuminating the cave. In that instant, Bai Ling saw Yue's face.

Just as he expected, Yue's eyes were a little red and misty, but her expression wasn't the evasive or timid one he had imagined. Instead, she seemed both shy and happy.

Yue looked at him with eyes brimming with deep love. He was indeed a little flustered, but he did not try to avoid her. Instead, he looked at Bai Ling with tenderness, biting his lip to calm himself down and accept everything his lover had given him.

The only light disappeared, and the entire cave was plunged into darkness again. Before Bai Ling's eyes was still Yue's handsome face, with tenderness, sweetness and joy intertwined on her face, so much so that he stopped what he was doing.

The atmosphere in the cave froze for a moment. Neither Bai Ling nor Yue spoke or moved. In the darkness, without being able to see each other's faces or eyes, the two silently stared at each other.

A clap of thunder boomed, seemingly making even the cave tremble. The rain finally began to fall, large raindrops pattering against the outside world, and there was no other sound in the world except for the sound of the rain.

The rain started to fall, but Bai Ling's heart remained burning hot, and his body was also burning with fever. He didn't touch Yue's ear anymore, but whispered, "Yue, go to sleep."

Bai Ling's voice was a little hoarse, as if she was suppressing something, and Yue's voice was also hoarse: "Ling, I can't sleep."

He really couldn't sleep. It felt like there was a fire burning inside him, a fire that was clamoring to burst out of his body but couldn't find an outlet. It just kept crashing around inside him, making his mouth dry and his body covered in a thin layer of sweat.

"Ling, talk to me," Yue's voice was somewhat muffled.

Bai Ling asked, "What does Yu want to hear?"

Yue thought for a moment and asked a question that had been on her mind for a long time: "What is that Bit? It's the Bit you mentioned when we were making jewelry for your father together."

When Yue mentioned it, Bai Ling remembered that when he was making jewelry for his father, he had indeed told Yue the story of Cupid. At that time, he told Yue the story of Cupid's arrow, and it turned out that Yue had remembered it all this time.

Bai Ling laughed and said, "Yue, you're talking about Cupid's arrow, right? Let me tell you about it."

"Cupid is the youngest son of the King of Gods..."
