With his daddy protecting this person so much, besides a tinge of uneasiness welling up in his heart, Long Mo's deep, orchid - colored pupils still lingered on Shu Yao.
The blue shadows that seemed to materialize from his eyes were like shooting fireflies, as if they could pierce through Shu Yao's whole body and even his soul. Every inch they swept over carried a demonic charm.
Under such penetrating gazes, Shu Yao felt not only extremely uncomfortable but also a faint sense of panic rising within him.
He always felt that this man could see through his true form. Although he had sealed his demonic arts and tried his best to conceal them, he looked no different from an ordinary mortal.
Long Mo finally withdrew his gaze. At that moment, the smile on the corner of his mouth flickered. Pretending to be nonchalant, he said, "Why are you so nervous? Anybody would take a few extra glances at such a stunning beauty."
Then, realizing that he was not exactly welcome and afraid of inviting unnecessary trouble, he could only reluctantly bid farewell. "Fine, I know you don't welcome me. I'll leave then."
As he brushed past Shu Yue's shoulder, he suddenly lowered his voice and murmured in his ear. The gesture was rather ambiguous. "Remember to call me if you need anything. I'll come at your beck and call."
"Get out of here quickly."
"Okay, I'm leaving." As he turned around, he cast a fleeting glance at Shu Yao and then disappeared into the night.
Shu Yue finally let out a sigh of relief. The cold wind blew through, bringing in a chill. He then closed the door.
"What a persistent guy." He muttered to himself. When he turned around, he met Shu Yao's stern and direct gaze.
Caught off - guard, he was startled. Shu Yue patted his chest and said, "Daddy, you scared me. Why are you looking at me like this in the middle of the night?"
Although his expression was as calm as still water, at first glance, it seemed to carry a bone - chilling coldness.
"Shu Yue, how did you get to know him?"
His serious tone made Shu Yue's heart skip a beat. He averted his wandering eyes and said, "It was just a chance encounter."
"I'm afraid it's not that simple," Shu Yao remained calm, slightly curving his red lips. "This man, from what I've seen, is extraordinary. And he seems to care about you a great deal."
Shu Yao only posed a vague question, keeping his real thoughts well - hidden. But he was already certain that the man named Long Mo was no ordinary mortal.
From the moment he saw him, the imposing aura and handsome appearance of the other man had shocked him. He couldn't tell whether he was a demon or a celestial being. He just seemed to hover between the two...
"Oh, daddy, I've already said it was just a chance encounter. It's already the Hour of the Boar. Let's go to bed."
Shu Yue tried his best to cover up his tracks. He climbed onto the bed, turned over, yawned, and then closed his eyes, resting his head on the pillow.
Even though Shu Yao wanted to ask further, he could only bury all his doubts in his heart for the time being. At least, it was good that Shu Yue had come back.
The next day, the morning bell rang, and everything went on as usual. It seemed that Shu Yue's disappearance was just a small episode that had never brought any interference to Kunshan from beginning to end.
With his extraordinary talent and high level of comprehension, Shu Yue had taught himself swordsmanship and outperformed his fellow disciples who had been practicing hard day by day. Even Li Nao was surprised at how much Shu Yue had improved.
Of course, Shu Yue wouldn't tell anyone that every time everyone else was resting behind closed doors, he was sweating and practicing sword - fighting. He would only stop when he was completely exhausted and his clothes were soaked through with sweat.
Shu Yue was young and arrogant. He was not restricted by the sect's rules. He studied swordsmanship on his own. Occasionally, he would pretend to practice with his fellow disciples, but his mind was still focused on his own path of cultivation.
After Shu Yue's disappearance for a few days last time, Shu Yao was afraid that he would disappear again. So he would follow him wherever he went, unconsciously becoming a bit dependent on Shu Yue.
Shu Yue naturally enjoyed his daddy's dependence and hoped that they could always be as carefree and happy as this.
But today, Shu Yue couldn't find Shu Yao anywhere. After almost turning Kunshan upside down, he finally caught sight of Shu Yao.
What he saw was a beautiful scene of a beauty taking a bath.
Seeing his daddy's slender and beautiful body half - hidden in the water again, his long black hair, and his snow - white skin, the little flame that had been suppressed in his heart started to burn faintly again.
Thinking of the time when he and Shu Yao had bathed together in the tree - house, Shu Yue both reminisced and fantasized about this charming and desirable body.
In his deep pupils, there was the still image of a celestial being. With an air of aloofness, elegant and graceful, the exposed skin on his back was as beautiful as jade porcelain. Every part of it was like a flawless work of art carefully carved by the heavens.
Shu Yue gulped hard. His eyes gradually darkened like a deep pool. He quickly took off his clothes. His strong and muscular body exuded an uncontrollable heat and desire. Without making a sound, he stepped into the water, approaching his prey step by step like a wild beast.
Because Shu Yue made very little noise, Shu Yao was only immersed in the comfort of taking a bath, concentrating quietly, and didn't notice any movement.
The next moment, a scorching body suddenly pressed against his back. Along with the strong force on his waist, his panic was instantly stifled by the low voice beside his ear.
"Daddy didn't even take me with him when he came to take a bath. It took me so long to find you."
As usual, he boldly rubbed against Shu Yao's temple, inhaling the long - missed cold fragrance. He tightened his arms even more, holding him tightly in his arms. Last time, because of the interference of the two young Taoist priests, Shu Yue had always felt regretful. How could he let go of such a good opportunity today?
"Shu Yue, what are you doing? Let go!" Shu Yao finally managed to break free from his strong embrace and turned around. Only then did he realize that they were both naked.
What met his eyes was that strong and mysterious masculine body. Although it was half - hidden, his well - defined and strong arms still showed his strength and beauty.
For some reason, his ears turned red. He covered his slender body with his hands. Although the action was rather awkward, in Shu Yue's eyes, it was deliberately seductive.
Because his body was slightly tense, his beautiful collarbone was just exposed, making his already perfect body look even more exquisite. Against a blushing face like a cloud of rosy smoke, it was an extremely rare kind of beauty for a man without any trace of effeminacy.
"Daddy, are you going to reject me again this time?" Shu Yue pretended to be aggrieved, but his eyes were as sharp as a torch. Although there was a mischievous smile on his face, he was as fierce as an eagle in the night.
"Shu Yue, this is not the place for you to act recklessly. Go back quickly!"
"It was daddy who started this fire in the first place. I can't be blamed for it," he still looked innocent, but his narrow eyes had fully revealed his aggressive intentions. Even the smile on his lips seemed evil. "It's lunch break time now. No one will come to this back mountain. Daddy, just yield to me."
He stretched out his long arm and easily pulled the retreating Shu Yao back into his arms. There was a soft but shameful collision of their bodies, which had already ignited an invisible fire of passion.
"Shu Yue, if you keep acting like this, I'll really get angry!" Shu Yao's half - hearted warning posed no threat to Shu Yue at all.
"Then show me how angry you can get, daddy..."
