Chapter 154 - 107: You Hurt My Mouth, It Needs a Kiss to Get Better

The Chastity Seal was a dark secret technique used by Beastmen to possess a female exclusively. It used their blood essence as a medium to seal her appearance.

Although it was a dark secret technique, what was strange was that almost every Beastman knew how to use it, as if it were an inherited part of their bloodline.

If a woman marked by the seal received the Primordial Essence of another Beastman, the secret technique would automatically break, revealing her true appearance and signifying the loss of her chastity.

No matter how one looked at it, this perfectly matched Jiang Yunnuan’s situation.

Si Xie was intensely curious and couldn’t help but ask, "Nuannuan, do you remember if you’ve had that mark since you were little? Or did it suddenly appear later on?"

"It must have appeared suddenly. But the strange thing is, I don’t remember when."

’In the life before Jiang Wanwan’s Rebirth, it wasn’t there. After her Rebirth, the original owner’s face inexplicably became like this.’

’The strange thing is, neither the system’s plot nor the original owner’s memories have any information about this mark. In the original owner’s memory, it’s as if she was born with it.’

’So strange. What in the world is going on?’

Jiang Yunnuan was lost in thought. The next moment, a sudden realization struck her, and her eyes widened as she stared at Si Xie.

’Crap!!!’

’How could I have been so careless and blurted out all my secrets?’

’Hey, when did you awaken your Mind Reading Technique? Was it before we went to the Mist Forest?’

’You’ve known for a while, haven’t you? That I’m not the original Jiang Yunnuan?’

Si Xie: "..."

Sigh. The system had clearly stated that it would only refresh once a second person in the world learned of his information. So how did she suddenly find out about his Mind Reading?

What exactly had gone wrong?

He had wanted to hide it for a while longer.

"Yes. I awakened this skill when I grew my third tail."

Jiang Yunnuan: "..."

’Aha! So you’ve been lying to me all this time!’

"I’m sorry... I was going to tell you, but then I discovered your thoughts were so interesting and full of secrets. I wanted to observe you for a while first."

Si Xie apologized earnestly.

Back then, his feelings for her had been in a state of transition.

Influenced by the original owner’s past misdeeds, he couldn’t help but worry that she would harm them as she had before. He feared her transformation was just a facade meant to deceive them.

Jiang Yunnuan: "..."

’Oh, whatever. I can’t blame you for this. If anyone’s to blame, it’s me for being unable to control my thoughts.’

’Even if you had told me, I still wouldn’t have been able to control them when it mattered. Isn’t this a perfect example?’

"What’s this cryptic game you two are playing?"

Fu Yuan, who had been watching from the sidelines for some time without understanding a thing, suddenly spoke up curiously.

He couldn’t hear Jiang Yunnuan’s thoughts, only Si Xie’s words. As a result, their interaction was utterly baffling to him.

"What’s it to you? You wouldn’t understand our connection. Ask fewer questions!"

Si Xie shot back with a snort, turning his head away.

Fu Yuan: "..."

After a moment of silence, he strode to Jiang Yunnuan’s side and reached for her hand, but Si Xie forcefully slapped it away.

He shielded Jiang Yunnuan behind him, gave Fu Yuan a hard shove, and snarled, his face dark with anger.

"Don’t touch her. Didn’t you hear what I said before?"

"I heard you. But why should I listen to you?"

Fu Yuan sneered, his eyes narrowing as he retorted without a hint of weakness.

Si Xie grabbed the front of Fu Yuan’s clothes. The exquisitely handsome man stared at him coldly, his face twisted with manic aggression as he spoke.

"Looking for a fight? Is that it? Fine, let’s take this outside!"

The words had barely left his mouth when the pair of beautiful, soft fox ears on his head were yanked hard.

Jiang Yunnuan stood on her tiptoes and hissed angrily in his ear.

"Why are you so aggressive with your own family? You don’t learn any of the good things, but you’ve perfectly inherited Jun Yao’s domineering attitude, haven’t you? You still want a fight? In that case, why don’t you wait for Yan Chen to get back and pick a fight with him instead?"

His ears throbbed with pain from her grip, but Si Xie paid it no mind.

His mind was now completely consumed by the name Yan Chen.

Who the hell was that guy?

This wasn’t the first time he had heard the name!

Could it be the person who took her to the Underground Dark Prison that day?

Who on earth was he?

How did he and Nuannuan meet?

First Jun Yao, now Yan Chen. A sour knot of jealousy tightened in Si Xie’s gut, making him feel miserable. A flicker of grievance surfaced in his beautiful eyes, and his manic, violent aura instantly vanished.

Seeing this, Fu Yuan let out a shameless laugh.

’This guy. Has he forgotten how much he loathed Jun Yao’s possessive tyranny back then?’

’The way he’s acting now, he’s just like the Jun Yao of the past.’

’The dragon slayer has become the dragon. How interesting!’

’Just because his Cultivation is a little higher, he thinks he can have Jiang Yunnuan all to himself. Fine. He’d better not come crying to me for an alliance when Yan Chen gets back.’

"What the hell are you laughing at?"

As he was being mocked, Si Xie glared at Fu Yuan and cursed. The moment the curse left his lips, his mouth was slapped. Jiang Yunnuan was glaring at him furiously.

"No swearing!"

Si Xie: "..."

"*Sniffle*... Nuannuan, why do you keep siding with Fu Yuan against me? D-do you not love me anymore?"

He looked at her with a pitiful, accusing expression, and the fox ears on his head drooped. The sight made Jiang Yunnuan’s heart melt.

She cleared her throat and said, "What nonsense. Of course I love you."

"I don’t believe you. I need a kiss to believe you. My mouth hurts so much from where you hit me. Only a kiss can make it better!"

Jiang Yunnuan: "..."

’I barely used any force. What pain is he even talking about?’

"It does hurt! See? It’s already swollen!"

He bent down, bringing his lips right in front of her face.

His slightly parted lips were a rosy pink and perfectly shaped. Jiang Yunnuan swallowed, then tilted her head up and gave him a gentle peck.

Just as she started to pull away, he pressed her against the bathroom wall, lowered his head, and kissed her forcefully.

After kissing for several seconds, he pulled back just a fraction of an inch and murmured in a husky voice, "Not enough. It has to be like this..."

Before the words had even faded, he kissed her deeply again, one hand holding her waist firmly, completely ignoring Fu Yuan as if he were thin air.

Watching the pair kiss as if no one else existed, Fu Yuan’s gaze darkened, and his fists clenched unconsciously.

’Enough, that’s enough! Stop, Fu Yuan is still watching!’

Jiang Yunnuan pushed at him hard, but she was being kissed so deeply that she couldn’t speak, only able to make muffled sounds. She had no choice but to warn him with her thoughts.

However, it was as if he couldn’t hear her at all.

Mentioning Fu Yuan was a mistake. At the sound of his name, Si Xie’s kiss grew even more fierce and possessive.

Hmph. He was kissing her precisely for that eyesore Fu Yuan to see. That guy clearly hadn’t liked Nuannuan back then and had wanted a Contract Termination, so what right did he have to compete with him now?

If he didn’t like her, he should stay far away.

The three-month deadline was almost up. When the time came, he could pack his bags and get lost. In any case, he shouldn’t dream of getting his Nuannuan for free.

’Hey! I know you can hear me! That’s enough! Let go, or don’t force me to slap you!!!!’

Si Xie: "..."

She wanted to slap him again. Why was Nuannuan so aggressive?
