Chapter 212: Chapter 127: First Kiss (Part 3)
Looking at his tender hands scooping water to clean his body, Chu Xuan was silent.
This should be the memory from when his master took him out to soak in the hot springs in Langhuan Grotto Heaven...
After all, it’s a dream, where not only memories of the Celestial Evil Period appear but also those closer to the present timeline.
Chu Xuan remembers clearly, on this day, his master originally took him to hunt a demon beast, a millennium-old poisonous dragon lurking in the mud.
In front of Primordial Monarch Taixu, a small dragon naturally is inconsequential. Chu Xuan wasn’t sure if she did it intentionally or unintentionally, but after taking down the poisonous dragon, both of them were splattered with muddy water.
So, Ming Yu changed her mind and brought him to the hot springs for a wash.
Thinking back carefully now, wasn’t this the place where they first met?
Of course, he was young then and was unaware of so many things.
As a simple young man, being pulled to the hot springs by his ice-cold beauty master who cared for him so much, you can imagine how excited he was.
Even though the icy stone wall wasn’t completely transparent, even when turned around, one could only see a vague and graceful silhouette of a woman, yet the young man dared not steal a glance.
He just kept cleaning his body, listening to the sound of water from behind, his heart filled with various enchanting and beautiful fantasies.
After a long time, the sound of water stopped, and it seemed his master started to get out and dress, "Chu Xuan, are you done?"
"Done!" The young man hurriedly replied, clumsily starting to get out, then his face flushed, and he quickly retreated.
Until Ji Mingyu walked around, looking at him gently with a smile, "Why don’t you come out?"
The young man stammered, "The clothes are gone."
He strongly suspected they were thrown away by his master, she seemed to have a bit of a cleanliness obsession.
Ming Yu realized, "I almost forgot, you didn’t bring a spare outfit, why not wear mine?"
"Huh?" The young man was stunned, the first time wearing women’s clothes, and it’s happening like this?
"What, do you dislike the clothes worn by your master?" Ming Yu’s eyes carried a faint smile.
"No, not at all, it’s just..." The young man’s face was so red it almost dripped blood, "Isn’t it a bit inappropriate?"
"There’s nothing inappropriate, just change when you return. Want me to help you wear it?"
"No, no need, master, just leave it on the shore," the young man quickly said.
Only then did Ming Yu nod and walk away, leaving a set of women’s dress on the shore.
The young man carefully landed ashore, didn’t have time to properly dress, and just slipped it on haphazardly, as long as it covered his body.
What made his heart race was that this set of clothes seemed to have indeed been worn by the master, it still retained a hard-to-describe faint fragrance, which, upon reaching his nose, made him blush, hot, and let imagination run wild.
"Are you ready?" Ming Yu’s voice came again.
The young man quickly nodded, "Ready, let’s head back quickly."
Ji Mingyu then walked back to Chu Xuan’s side, looking at him with an ambiguous smile.
The young man felt uneasy, seeing his master staring at him continuously, he urged, "Master."
Ming Yu nodded, finally taking cloud and flying back to Langhuan Grotto Heaven with the disciple.
On the way, the master no longer teased him, only chatting about daily lessons.
This day, the young man practiced his sword technique again after returning, went to sleep early that night.
...
In his dream, Chu Xuan took a deep breath, precisely because these memories were so warm, the more painful it felt at the moment, and increasingly confused and dissatisfied with Ming Yu’s behavior.
His vision returned to darkness, Chu Xuan thought today’s lucid dream was over.
But what he didn’t expect was, his consciousness lingered in the boundless darkness, neither entering deep sleep nor waking up.
In his confusion, Chu Xuan suddenly felt a sensation on his lips, someone was kissing him!
There’s absolutely no mistake, these past days he and Gu Haitang had kissed countless times; they’ve played with all sorts of methods, he’s never been more familiar with this sensation.
Chu Xuan felt a bit resigned, was Haitang this hungry? I’m asleep and she still kisses me?
No way, once awake I’ll have to properly educate her, or how can I uphold marital authority after marriage?
But for now... unable to resist, he could only enjoy.
No, wait! Chu Xuan silently enjoyed for a while, suddenly realizing, this method of kissing wasn’t Gu Haitang’s style, she always took a passive position, bashfully with him.
But now, this woman was very proactive, one could even say greedy, kissing with full possessiveness...
Wait a moment, a terrible thought popped into Chu Xuan’s mind, was the memory not over yet?
...
In the Wuyou Valley’s cave dwelling, several days had passed since Ji Mingyu’s fury.
Seeing in the water mirror Chu Xuan silently sitting in meditation, Gu Haitang concentrated on cultivation too, the little snow ferret cautiously spoke, trying to comfort its master’s wounded heart:
"Master, I know, for humans, there’s something like a ’first kiss’ notion."
"But I think that long-term companionship is far more important than that."
"Especially when in the future you reconcile, you’ll have as many kisses as you want, surely better than Gu Haitang."
The little snow originally thought its master would be angry for bringing this up again, but Ji Mingyu merely replied coldly:
"What are you thinking? Chu Xuan’s first kiss after resurrection couldn’t possibly be saved until now."
The little snow was instantly dumbfounded, what does this mean?
Wait! It suddenly remembered something, back when Chu Xuan was still in Langhuan Grotto Heaven, it had occasionally seen, the master sneakily slipped into the young man’s room more than once, could it be...
The little snow was instantly flabbergasted, finally realizing why when Gu Haitang first kissed Chu Xuan, the master, though extremely angry, could still hold back.
