Chapter 175: Chapter 175: The Little Fox’s Nosebleed

Lucia’s eyes were half-closed, his long lashes trembling slightly like the wings of a butterfly about to take flight.

He savored the intimacy, a soft purr rumbling in his throat as if in response to Su Yaoyao’s affection.

However, the heat that had yet to fully subside surged back like a returning tide.

Lucia stuck out his small, pink tongue and slowly licked Su Yaoyao’s lips. The gesture was both charmingly naive and faintly, innocently seductive.

Su Yaoyao chuckled at the unexpected action, her gaze completely captivated by the adorable little fox before her.

The little red fox’s tail swayed gently, brushing against Su Yaoyao’s arm, and his pair of pointed ears twitched from time to time. His big, watery golden eyes were filled with affection and reliance on Su Yaoyao.

Su Yaoyao was utterly conquered by Lucia’s cute appearance, and her heart overflowed with affection like a bursting dam.

She couldn’t help but plant several kisses on Lucia’s mouth, murmuring, "You little thing, being this cute should be illegal. How can you be so adorable, my little fox baby?"

Lucia’s head spun from Su Yaoyao’s string of passionate kisses, and it felt as if a swarm of tiny bees was buzzing inside his mind.

Just then, a warm liquid slowly trickled from his nose—Lucia was having a nosebleed!

Seeing this, Su Yaoyao grew alarmed. "Lucia, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" she asked anxiously. Her eyes were filled with worry as she instinctively cupped him gently in her hands, carefully examining him.

The little fox looked embarrassed. His once lively body now curled up into a ball like a frightened quail, and he reached out a small paw to frantically cover his lower body.

Su Yaoyao understood instantly. A blush WHOOSHED across her face, and she chided him, half-amused and half-exasperated, "You... Your wounds haven’t even fully healed, and you’re already thinking about things you shouldn’t be."

’It’s because you’re too tempting, Yaoyao!’ Lucia screamed internally. ’You just got out of the bath, and you have this alluring scent like orchids and musk. When you hold me, the soft feeling of your chest is like a feather gently stroking my heart, so I just couldn’t help it...’

Su Yaoyao quickly took out a handkerchief and gently wiped Lucia’s nose.

Then, as if a thought suddenly struck her, Su Yaoyao leaned down and brought her lips close to Lucia’s pointed ears.

Her voice was soft and carried a hint of seductive ambiguity as she said slowly, "Be a good boy and focus on healing. Only when you’re all better can you... do *that* with me."

Su Yaoyao’s voice seemed to carry a certain magic, each word stroking Lucia’s heartstrings like a feather.

Lucia felt his head explode with a BOOM. The nosebleed that had just stopped gushed out again with a WHOOSH, completely out of his control.

His mind was already filled with lewd, romantic fantasies about Su Yaoyao. All sorts of intimate images with her flashed before his eyes, and only a single thought remained:

’I wish my body would heal right now so I can tumble in the sheets with Yaoyao.’

Seeing her words had the desired effect, Su Yaoyao’s lips curved into a sly smile. "So," she said softly, "from now on, when the doctor needs to check your wounds, you have to cooperate obediently, understand?"

Su Yaoyao had discovered that Lucia resisted anyone else getting close, but with her, he let his guard down completely.

Lucia hesitated for a moment, then slowly nodded.

At this, a brilliant smile bloomed on Su Yaoyao’s face. She gave him another light peck on the mouth and said gently, "Such a good boy. This is your reward."

Lucia stared dazedly at Su Yaoyao, his heart blooming with joy as he mused to himself: ’If I’m this good every day, does that mean Yaoyao will kiss me every day?’

At that thought, his mood instantly became cheerful and excited. The vitality that had been somewhat drained by his injuries now seemed to be rekindled.

He was immersed in the warm atmosphere, his entire being filled with happiness. All the noise of the world faded away; only Su Yaoyao, right before him, was his entire world at this moment.

Just as Su Yaoyao and Lucia were sharing their intimate moment, the faint sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the bedchamber.

Su Yaoyao stiffened slightly and instinctively held Lucia tighter, a flicker of vigilance in her eyes.

"Who is it?" she asked softly, her voice echoing in the quiet chamber.

"It’s me." Augustine’s gentle voice replied. He slowly pushed the door open with a soft CREAK and walked in with graceful steps.

Lucia, who had been immersed in the pleasure of his intimate interaction with Su Yaoyao, instantly shifted his gaze to the doorway upon hearing the sound.

When the tall figure came into view, his golden eyes widened slightly.

Having lost his memories of his rampage, he didn’t remember that Augustine had nearly taken his life with a single sword strike.

However, based on his prior impression of Augustine’s figure, he quickly recognized that this was one of Su Yaoyao’s Beast Husbands.

At this moment, Augustine wasn’t wearing his usual mask. His extraordinarily handsome yet authoritative face was on full display, and Lucia froze, a tempestuous shock crashing through him.

’So, this is His Majesty the Emperor!’ he thought, staring blankly as his mind raced like a runaway horse.

’Yes, he should have realized it sooner. As a rare Holy Female, with her transcendent aura and noble status, how could Su Yaoyao’s Beast Husband be an ordinary person?’

He just hadn’t thought about it deeply before. Now, with the truth right in front of him, he was struck by how it all made perfect sense.

When Augustine saw Su Yaoyao holding Lucia so tightly, an imperceptible trace of jealousy arose in his heart, but he only frowned slightly, not revealing much.

He walked to the bedside and sat down gently next to Su Yaoyao, the bed dipping slightly.

"Are you finished with your work?" Su Yaoyao tilted her head, looking at Augustine with a smile, her eyes full of concern and affection.

"Yes. I was thinking of you, so I hurried over as soon as I was done." 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Augustine said gently. The interrupted kiss from that morning had been planted in his heart like a seed, which had since taken root and sprouted, causing an unbearable itch.

Augustine reached out, his fingertips gently gliding across Su Yaoyao’s cheek, as light as a feather’s touch. He then tucked a strand of hair from beside her ear behind it.

His thumb lovingly caressed her lips. His gaze was fiery and deep, his voice low and full of desire. "Yaoyao, I want to continue what we left unfinished this morning."
