The scorching temperature on the teenager's body was like a furnace.
Xia Ling was already hot enough to sleep alone, and now there was a big furnace attached to her back. Soon, Xia Ling was sweating profusely, and her tight linen vest and pajama pants were all wet with sweat.
"Why are you still coming over when it's hot? Is it a prickly heat?"
She pushed Searle away and sat up.
In the room, the bed she slept on was an earthen bed made in the snow season.
In the snow season, as long as a fire was lit, it would be warm.
Xia Ling and Searle each had one in their room.
But now, the earthen bed was covered with a straw mat. When Xia Ling slept at night, she still felt like she was sleeping on a pancake over a pot.
Turning left and right, it might be cooked in a moment.
"Sister..."
Pushed away, Searle's green eyes looked wronged as he moved closer.
He hugged Xia Ling from behind and rubbed against her body.
"But I'm really uncomfortable! I can't sleep!"
Searle had already grown up. He was no longer the lively and cute little leopard from before.
Orcs and pets were different after all.
Xia Ling could not be so close to him anymore. However, the weather was so hot that she was annoyed. With such a big stove rubbing against her back, what kind of feeling was this?
How she wished she could slap him far away!
"Even if you're uncomfortable, stay away from me?" Xia Ling struggled away again. In the darkness, she glared at Searle. "Why are you pestering me?"
Searle: "But, the other orcs are all females. I want to be with you too!"
Ten thousand times...
Xia Ling thought for a moment. This little brat had only transformed for a short while, and he had already learned so much.
She turned to the side and moved further away from him. "Get off me, you're not learning well every day!"
"You don't love Searle anymore. You actually want me to get lost."
Searle was like a piece of candy. Xia Ling told him to get lost, but he did not get lost. Instead, he leaned over and used the sticky word spell to its fullest.
Xia Ling struggled a few times and was really tired of being tortured. When Searle carried her again, she simply did not struggle. Instead, she found a comfortable position and leaned into Searle's arms.
She did not say anything, but this action gave Searle great encouragement.
"Sister!" Her dark green eyes lit up in the darkness.
Searle secretly poked her. Searle was having bad ideas again.
He could feel that Xia Ling was very resistant to being with him, so his brain worked quickly and he came up with a good idea.
"Sister, I'll take you to take a bath! We'll secretly go to the forest to take a bath at night. I know a place where orcs usually don't go. The water is still warm. It should be the hot spring you mentioned."
Xia Ling: "Hot spring?"
After being kneaded by Searle, the sweat on their bodies passed from one to the other. Xia Ling's body was wet and sticky, and she felt very uncomfortable.
However, she shook her head again. "It's so late. If we leave the tribe, we'll definitely be discovered by the orcs on night watch. We'll lose face then."
"It's okay!" Searle kissed her cheek. "I can take sister there."
*
Xia Ling could not resist the temptation and secretly followed Searle out of the tribe.
After leaving the tribe for some distance, Searle transformed back into his beast form.
The robust leopard had grown into a mighty big leopard.
Searle turned his head and his jade-green leopard eyes looked at Xia Ling.
"Sister, come up. I'll take you there."
The little leopard had really grown into a big leopard.
Xia Ling climbed onto Searle's back. She lay on his body and hugged his neck.
The crescent moon was as thin as a silver hook above his head.
Searle ran in the dark wilderness.
"...". One of my chapters was swallowed, and I felt that I could not connect them. I looked at the previous chapter again.
