Chapter 8: Tang San: What Are You Doing!?

"It's this soft and fluffy strength again!"

Xiao Wu was infuriated. At this moment, Cheng Xiao was sticking to her like a piece of toffee, exuding a soft and fluffy force all over his body.

Trying to break free, this force seemed to have a magical hold, firmly biting onto her.

Attempting to resist it, she couldn't find a point of leverage; every move seemed to strike into thin air.

It was disgustingly frustrating.

"Bang!"

Both of them fell to the ground together, instantly turning into a tangled mess.

But soon, both of them immediately sobered up. Cheng Xiao knew Xiao Wu's temperament—she was competitive, and without a clear winner or loser, she wouldn't stop.

Therefore, the moment they regained consciousness, Cheng Xiao firmly restrained Xiao Wu, pinning her to the ground.

"Huff, huff, you, be gentle, you've lost..." Cheng Xiao gasped for breath. Inadvertently, he almost let Xiao Wu break free, but ended up receiving a heavy blow himself.

Refusing to admit defeat, Xiao Wu miraculously dislocated her joints, twisting her limbs to counter Cheng Xiao's joints.

"You, huff, you're the one who lost. Ah, you lost, call me Big Sister Xiao Wu..."

Despite Xiao Wu appearing light and seemingly not heavy, her waist strength was astonishing. Her legs were not thick, but the muscles were tight, showing explosive power. She almost broke Cheng Xiao's leg if it weren't for his long-term training giving him some confidence in resisting, combined with the leverage of Tai Chi.

"Spit! Today, huff, I'll definitely make you huff, know who's, huff, the bigger one!"

Both of them were fierce and merciless.

In the struggle, the two unavoidably had intimate contact. The soft and delicate skin and the refreshing fragrance assaulted Cheng Xiao's senses, making his thoughts wander uncontrollably.

"Continuing this won't do any good; it needs to end soon!"

Joint techniques were the specialty of soft techniques. If dragged on for too long, he would undoubtedly end up losing.

With determination, Cheng Xiao grabbed Xiao Wu's ankle, lifting her legs over his head. Xiao Wu retracted her other leg, preparing to deliver a knee strike. However, in the next moment, Cheng Xiao embraced her waist and forcefully flipped her over, making her perform a split.

Cheng Xiao firmly pressed her down and started tickling her waist.

"Did you lose or not? Quickly say!"

"Hahaha, you, hahaha, you're being unfair, hahaha..."

Unable to stop laughing, Xiao Wu wanted to break free but was held back by Cheng Xiao. She could only let Cheng Xiao continue.

"I admit defeat, I admit defeat! Hahaha..." Xiao Wu finally couldn't take it anymore.

Seeing Xiao Wu finally admit defeat, Cheng Xiao relaxed his mental state, lying down beside Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu also fell into Cheng Xiao's embrace.

"Huff, huff, huff..."

Both of them were completely exhausted, their breathing sounding like an old and worn-out bellows.

In their exhaustion, Xiao Wu didn't move much, lying in Cheng Xiao's arms to rest. Listening to his strong and rhythmic heartbeat gradually calming down, their breaths transformed from intense to gradually gentle.

"What are you, what are you doing!?"

Suddenly, a surprised and childish voice came from nearby.

Both of them weakly turned their heads, seeing the newcomer, and both were startled.

"Xiao San!? You're back!"

Only to find Tang San standing not far away, looking as if struck by lightning, staring stiffly at the awkward positions of the two.

Tang San opened his mouth, as if a thousand words were in his throat, but they all got stuck, not knowing what to say at this moment.

This time, the teacher took him out to observe the habits of soul beasts. Having not returned for several days, without Xiao Wu's company, he found it dull in the Soul Beast Forest.

Until today, on the way back, his heart seemed to have flown back to the school long ago.

He hurriedly returned to the dormitory but did not see the petite figure he had been eager to see. After inquiring with his roommate, he learned that Xiao Wu was cleaning the playground alone. Tang San hurriedly headed for the playground, intending to help Xiao Wu finish cleaning the remaining area, allowing her to take a break.

As a result, when he rushed to the playground, the scene he had imagined of Xiao Wu happily waving at him did not occur. Instead, he found the two of them embracing and panting heavily on the playground.

For a moment, he felt his breath stagnate, his throat dry and hoarse to the point of silence, a piercing pain emerging from his heart.

Heartache, true heartache, is not manifested through loud quarrels but through silent internal struggles.

"We were just practicing!" Xiao Wu didn't notice Xiao San's abnormal mood, and she got up and bounced over to him. "Xiao San, Xiao San! Let me tell you, Xiao Cheng actually created his own soul skill, just as amazing as your stone-throwing, um, it's annoying..."

Although Xiao Wu had transformed into a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, she had not yet reached the stage of developing romantic feelings between men and women.

But Tang San was different. Like Cheng Xiao, both of them were transmigrators, and within their weak bodies resided the soul of an adult! The difference between adults and children lies in their complex thoughts, sometimes too intricate for even adults themselves to fathom.

In their days of interaction, Xiao Wu gave Tang San a feeling entirely different from others. In his past life, he was an orphan, and in this life, his father paid him little attention. He had never tasted warmth.

However, in his time with Xiao Wu, he felt a kind of warmth that made him indulge, something he had not discovered before.

However, now, abruptly witnessing the intimate scene between Xiao Wu and Cheng Xiao, that special feeling emerged from the depths of Tang San's heart. Surprisingly, Xiao Wu was so special to him.

He only felt as if something important had been taken away from him, giving rise to an unspoken anger. However, these thoughts had no outlet, and he could only continue to internally consume himself.

Tang San's gaze gradually darkened, with raging fury in his heart, to the point where he couldn't even hear what Xiao Wu was saying.

Suddenly raising his head, Tang San's eyes filled with anger collided with Cheng Xiao's indifferent gaze, and a murderous intent emerged from the anger.

"Xiao San, Xiao San! What are you thinking?" Xiao Wu's small hand waved in front of Tang San's eyes. Tang San startled, and the killing intent in his eyes suddenly disappeared. He found the cute and tender face of Xiao Wu, full of confusion, now in front of him.

Tang San quickly showed a hint of an indulgent smile. "Ah? I'm not thinking anything! It's just been a while since I've seen you, and I miss you a bit."

"It hasn't been that long; it's only been three days."

"You haven't finished cleaning up yet, right? Let me help you." Saying this, Tang San lowered his head and picked up the bamboo broom nearby.

"Hehe, Xiao San is really good!"

Watching Tang San's figure, Cheng Xiao's gaze remained indifferent. He had noticed the fleeting killing intent just now, but he didn't care. He was sure Tang San wouldn't dare to act against him here. As long as Xiao Wu treated Cheng Xiao differently, Tang San wouldn't dare to make a move in front of her, as he couldn't bear the consequences of Xiao Wu hating him.

Therefore, all Cheng Xiao had to do was keep gaining Xiao Wu's favor.

"Hehe, as expected, a fox and a dog can't play together." Cheng Xiao stretched his waist, a smile playing on his lips, and his eyes narrowed slightly with a dangerous curve. One hiding ghost stories, the other harboring the heart of a wolf, neither treating each other as human.

As for who was playing whom, who knew?

Anyway, Cheng Xiao quite enjoyed the current fun. He liked to see that "hate me but can't get rid of me" look in their eyes.

"What fox and dog?" Xiao Wu listened halfway and looked puzzled.

"Talking about you, the fox spirit!"

"Spit, spit, spit! Xiao Cheng, even you are learning bad habits from Xiao San! From now on, you're not allowed to use that word again, or else..."
