Reborn as a Mortal Heiress Pampered by Big Shots-Chapter 209 - 199 ... Have you eaten?

Jiang Xuan saw that she was staring at his lips with an especially serious expression...

Her eyes seemed as if they were about to be embedded into them.

After a few seconds of silence, he couldn’t help but feel that the part being stared at was somewhat scorching.

He pursed his lips slightly, and his Adam’s apple conspicuously rolled.

Xia Ye’s alluring peach blossom eyes were like top-notch black agate stones fogged over, as if she was staring intently at him, yet the longer he looked, the more it seemed like they weren’t focused at all.

Jiang Xuan felt a bit vexed in his heart, as everything had been developing quite smoothly, with the young girl getting closer and closer to him without any guard.

Who knew that in the midst of this burgeoning affection, he would suddenly be recognized.

And that young girl seemed to have some misunderstandings about him, he wondered if she would still...

Jiang Xuan, "Actually, when I punished you before it was... "

"Don’t talk!"

He wanted to plead his case a bit more, but before he could even start explaining, he was interrupted.

Xia Ye frowned as she stared at his lips, the few words he had just spelled out with their opening and closing had once again dispelled a lot of the precious spiritual energy.

Such a waste!

To let such pure spiritual energy go to waste.

Xia Ye suddenly leaned toward him.

Before Jiang Xuan could interpret her intentions, the reflection of the girl in his eyes rapidly enlarged, and the next second—

Those soft, wine-warmed lips pressed directly onto his.

Jiang Xuan’s body stiffened abruptly, his eyes widening slightly.

Xia Ye pecked at his lips, the intoxication from the alcohol slightly diminishing her perception.

It didn’t feel like spiritual energy was flowing in.

Before long, she felt it was rather uninteresting and straightened up once again.

Even looking as if she might drift off to lie down and fall into a deep sleep.

Jiang Xuan: ...

Before the girl could leave, he suddenly lifted his hand to grab her arm, yanking her back.

He wouldn’t allow her to go.

Hit and run, what did that mean?

Xia Ye looked at him with a boneless tilt to her head, not understanding why he wouldn’t let her leave.

Jiang Xuan looked at her with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, the inkiness of his eyes so deep it was indistinguishable.

He said, "Just like that, you won’t be able to get any spiritual energy."

?

Xia Ye, "Then how can I?"

Jiang Xuan paused for a second, his large hand going around to the back of her head, unexpectedly pulling her dizzy little head down—

Once again, their lips touched.

But this time, the man took the initiative, which was entirely different from the earlier brief touch of a dragonfly skimming the water.

By now, the evening had turned pitch dark, and streetlights outside the villa glowed brightly.

The warm yellow streetlight fell into the room, which wasn’t very bright to begin with, suddenly adding a few more impressions.

For the first time in five thousand years, he was savoring this flavor.

And this time, it wasn’t in a dream.

He was very assertive, entirely unlike his usual high and lonely demeanor on Ear Mountain.

The abundant spiritual energy wildly dissipated, more exaggerated than Xia Ye could have imagined.

Her eyes sparkled with iridescent light.

This was just kissing, but Xia Ye felt as though her fox tail was about to emerge.

That silver-white, stunningly beautiful fluffy fox tail.

Xia Ye did not shy away, but rather greedily reveled in this feast of spiritual energy.

This brought Jiang Xuan great pleasure.

He kissed her even more fiercely. novelbuddy.cσ๓

Trying to take as much as he could in this kiss.

Her palm pressed gently but firmly against the back of her head, keeping her from moving.

...

After a while, he finally let go of her hand.

His thin lips curved into a meaningful arc, and his deep, husky voice became even more resonant and sandy.

"Little thing, have you gorged yourself on ’chi’?"

He was referring to spiritual energy.

Unfortunately, his question did not receive an answer, as the little girl, having absorbed a full dose of spiritual energy, was already asleep on top of him...

Xia Ye took a short nap at the Jiang residence, and thanks to the spiritual energy, the effects of the alcohol had mostly worn off.

It was only after the Xia family called Jiang Xuan’s cell phone that he took the little girl out of the room and had the soup made by Nanny Li to help sober her up.

Xia Ye was still a bit confused; she couldn’t remember when she had fallen asleep.

She pressed against her temples. If she were at home, she would definitely grab a leaf and stuff it into her mouth to alleviate the headache similar to a hangover.

Nanny Li brought over the soup, which had been made with chicken broth, and Xia Ye actually liked it.

She picked up the bowl and drank heartily.

"Hiss—"

The moment her lip corners touched the piping hot sobering soup, she felt a sharp pain.

Jiang Xuan frowned slightly, "What’s wrong? Is it too hot?"

Xia Ye shook her head, "It’s a split in the corner of my mouth—"

Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly realized something.

The images from before she slept were finally returning to her mind, bit by bit.

Nanny Li, who was particularly concerned, came over and indeed saw that the split at Xia Ye’s mouth was a bit red after touching the sobering soup. She hadn’t reacted at first, "Miss Xia, how did you hurt your mouth? Was it during dinner when eating lobster that you were pricked by the shell?"

Jiang "Lobster" Xuan had already realized what happened, cleared his throat, and unfolded a newspaper he had no desire to read, glancing at Nanny Li, "Get her some ointment."

Nanny Li, "Yes."

She hadn’t yet turned around when Jiang Xuan added, "Buy the best kind."

Nanny Li bowed slightly, "I’ll take care of it immediately."

After Nanny Li left, the living room returned to silence.

Jiang Xuan read two lines from the newspaper, his peripheral gaze sweeping towards Xia Ye.

He noticed she was staring intently at him.

Jiang Xuan’s handsome eyes twitched imperceptibly and after two seconds of silence, "...It was you who initiated it."

Xia Ye narrowed her eyes: ...

Well, she wasn’t at a loss.

A little fairy in distress in the human world, it was only right that he, as part of Heavenly Dao, offered a bit of spiritual energy to help out in an emergency!

**

When Jiang Xuan brought Xia Ye back home, it was not particularly late. As they passed Jiang He’s building, he heard that the get-together of Jiang Yunzhou’s classmates was still not over.

Back home, Xu He brought Xia Ye a large plate of fruit that she had cut herself. Xia Yuzheng was reading a newspaper in the living room, and her brothers were either watching tv or playing with their phones; the atmosphere was very harmonious, and chatting with her felt particularly natural.

This all had been specially orchestrated by Xu He before Xia Ye’s return home.

No one was allowed to mention the exams, fearing that it would sour the mood of their Little Tiangao.

Xia Xian would return to the frontier in a few days. In the evening, before going to sleep, he knocked on his little sister’s room, wanting to take a look at those few plants that amazed their father.

He had long wanted to see those precious plants of his little sister’s with his own eyes.

The ointment they produced had miraculous effects, and they were also rare species not recorded by the International Botanical Organization.

According to their father, there had been a few more pots recently...

Even though he had fully prepared himself, when Xia Xian saw those few pots of plants with his own eyes, he was still stunned.

The semi-transparent leaves and the glowing veins were, no matter how one looked at them, not something that belonged to the world of the living.

He placed his hands in his pockets and walked several circles around those precious plants before turning to look at Xia Ye, "Little Tiangao, this flower... can you split off a small branch for Third Brother? I’d like to take it back for some research."

Xia Ye was easy to talk to, "Sure."

Xia Xian’s face lit up with joy. Just as he was about to go over and hug his most adorable little sister, he suddenly smelled something.

His sharp nose twitched, and his eyebrows knitted together, "Little Tiangao, why do you smell so strongly of alcohol?"
