Ye Jingtang lay flat on his head and looked at the heroine right in front of him with a strange expression.

Although Luo Ning’s arms were between them, and she didn’t come into direct contact with him, her moist hair slid down her shoulders and sprinkled on the side of his face, tickling his heart.

There was a fair hand separating them, but it was indeed a woman’s forceful kiss.

Ye Jingtang felt that this method wasn’t bad, so he immediately suppressed his wandering thoughts and paid attention to the movements outside while lightly kissing her palm.

!!

Luo Ning felt a warm and numbing sensation in her palm, and goosebumps rose all over her body!

So close, she could feel Ye Jingtang’s hot breath on her face. Although it wasn’t a real kiss, the impact on her was not small.

Although it was unbearable, Luo Ning had the experience of being touched the last time. In the end, she suppressed the trembling in her heart, closed her eyes, and kissed Ye Jingtang through her palm while paying close attention to the movements outside the window.

But…

This kid seems to be very experienced in taking advantage of girls!

Just as Luo Ning suppressed her current embarrassment, she found that not only was Ye Jingtang kissing her, but he had even raised his hand and placed it on the back of her head. Then he slid his hand down along her black hair and gently caressed her back and shoulders.

This kind of touch was indescribable. Luo Ning only felt that this gentle caress was like a branding iron running on her back. Every stroke struck her heart directly, causing her to tremble involuntarily. She couldn’t help wanting to cry out.

Luo Ning moved her hand slightly and squeezed Ye Jingtang’s arm, warning him not to touch randomly.

Ye Jingtang felt that he was innocent. After all, it was impossible for a man to kiss while keeping his hands still. He only touched her shoulders and back, not any sensitive areas.

Sensing Heroine Luo’s murderous intent, Ye Jingtang restrained himself a little. He spread out his hands and leaned on the pillow, pretending to be an ‘insulted hero’ who was forcefully being bullied by Heroine Luo.

The soft sounds lasted for nearly half an hour.

Luo Ning had obviously overestimated her endurance. She had one arm curled in front of her chest to support her body and pressed down on Ye Jingtang’s body. At first, she didn’t think much of it, but as the man’s body temperature continued to spread, she gradually began to feel that something was wrong with her entire body. Her face was slowly heating up, her heart was in a mess, and her breathing involuntarily became heavier…

Luo Ning’s mind was in chaos. She could only close her eyes, remind herself not to pay attention to this, and listen attentively to the situation outside the window.

Ye Jingtang lay obediently and didn’t cross the line again. But he slowly realized that there was something wrong with Heroine Luo, who was pressing down on him.

They were too close to each other, so he couldn’t see Luo Ning’s face clearly. He could only sense that her eyes were closed, her breathing was hot, and her clothes were rising and falling.

Originally, Luo Ning’s left arm was curled up in front of her chest to maintain the distance between them. But as time passed, her strength started to weaken. In the end, it turned into her upper body pressing against his chest.

?

Although Ye Jingtang’s willpower was outstanding, he wasn’t a saint. Seeing Luo Ning sticking so close to him, he couldn’t help raising his hand, quietly moving it to her back, and gently caressing her.

Luo Ning had her eyes closed and was trying her best to sense the situation outside, so she didn’t seem to notice that his actions were different from before.

“…”

Ye Jingtang blinked. Then his hand slid down a bit.

“Uh?!”

This time, Luo Ning finally reacted and instantly regained awareness. She propped herself up again, opened her eyes, and glared angrily at Ye Jingtang!

Ye Jingtang quickly raised his hands. With a serious expression, he mouthed a reminder: Don’t get distracted!

I’m distracted? Luo Ning had been ‘concentrating’ on the movements outside the window just now, so she didn’t feel that she was distracted. Besides, even if I’m distracted, can you touch me?

Seeing that Ye Jingtang was still playing the blame game, Luo Ning really wanted to draw her sword and reason with him. But the person outside the inn didn’t seem to have left and should be hiding still.

Luo Ning glared fiercely at Ye Jingtang and wiped her hand on his clothes in disgust. Then she turned over, lay flat on the pillow, pressed her hand on the soft sword at her waist, and suppressed her emotions. “We still have something to do tomorrow. Go to bed early.”

Seeing that Luo Ning was angry, Ye Jingtang shrugged slightly and carefully paid attention to the movements outside.

The inn was completely silent. The two of them didn’t speak again. It was as if they had fallen asleep after kissing.

But after the two of them finished, there were still others staying in the inn.

There were all sorts of people gathered nearby, and the people of Jianghu didn’t care much about etiquette. Martial artists had too much energy, so it was common for men and women to have sex in inns at night.

Ye Jingtang had just closed his eyes for a moment when he heard a sound coming from a room in the inn.

The voice sounded like she was crying and complaining. She was much more professional than Heroine Luo.

Ye Jingtang’s expression became strange, and he silently looked at Luo Ning beside him. He saw that her already red face was gradually turning into a burning cloud and then turned cold again. She tightly clenched her hands, which were folded on her lower abdomen, and pretended not to hear anything.

Ye Jingtang was paying attention to the movements outside the window, but he was a little distracted by this noise. He thought for a moment and whispered, “This woman is really unrestrained.”

“Hmph… slut…”

The voice not far away was tormenting Luo Ning. After mumbling, she turned around, leaving Ye Jingtang with the back of her head.

When Ye Jingtang heard that Luo Ning really commented, surprise flashed in his eyes. He originally wanted to chat casually, but looking at Luo Ning’s attitude, she probably didn’t want to talk, so he let it go.

In the dead of night, the sounds of the happiness between a man and a woman were a mental test for the man and woman lying together.

Fortunately, the man not far away was of average skill. After about three minutes, he stopped moving.

A woman’s annoyed voice came. “I haven’t eaten enough~”

Luo Ning breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as though a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders.

The rainy night had also completely quieted down. At first, there were still voices on the street. But as the night deepened, only the lanterns hanging outside the inn slowly swayed in the wind and rain.

The two of them lay in silence for nearly two hours. There was no other movement outside.

Ye Jingtang wasn’t sleepy. From time to time, he would look at Luo Ning’s side profile to see if she had fallen asleep.

Luo Ning slowly adapted to lying next to Ye Jingtang, and her complexion returned to normal as she patiently waited for the fish to take the bait.

But the fish outside was more cautious than they had imagined. In the end, there were no abnormal movements. In the latter half of the night, two soft sounds came from the window. “Chirp chirp…”

Luo Ning’s eyelashes fluttered as she opened her eyes in confusion.

Ye Jingtang understood what the bird meant: Open the window! I’m freezing to death!

After observing the window for a moment, he flipped over Luo Ning’s body and quietly approached the window with his saber.

Squeak!

The window was raised, and the cold wind and rain immediately drifted in.

The fluffy bird swooshed into the room from the outside. Its feathers were completely drenched. It landed on the bed and began to shake its head crazily.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Water droplets splashed everywhere!

Luo Ning frowned, but her heart ached. She pulled the bird over and wiped it with a thin blanket. “Did he leave?”

The bird had been exposed to the wind and rain for an entire day. It felt very wronged, so it opened its beak first.

Ye Jingtang watched outside the window for a moment before walking up to the bird. He took out some dried meat and fed it. “Looks like he’s gone.”

Luo Ning had been suffering for so long, so when she heard this, she was naturally angry. “Then, what should we do? Did we put on this show for nothing?”

After the bird finished eating, it finally felt a little better. It pointed outside with its wings. “Chirp, chirp.”

Ye Jingtang explained, “It’s very smart. Someone was secretly observing us, so it naturally acted as the oriole behind. I don’t believe the Wingless Owl can be so cautious that he can shake off a bird’s tracking. Let’s follow it to capture him.”

Luo Ning was still brooding over the fact that Ye Jingtang had touched her just now, but since it was a serious matter, it wasn’t appropriate for her to flare up. In the end, she still climbed out of the window with Ye Jingtang…
