TL: Moonlit
Lin Su didn’t immediately understand the meaning of Kane’s words until Su Jin came over and poked Kane. Lin Su glanced at Su Jin’s expression and remembered that his own child had a thin face. He said, “What nonsense are you talking about!”
Kane suddenly realized that his words were too direct. Lin Su, being a young female, naturally had a thin face. But the thought of his own child dragging his exhausted body and being treated by William in various ways made him angry.
Lin Su, who realized the meaning of Kane’s words belatedly, felt the heat returning to his face. He never expected such a misunderstanding to occur.
Once is understandable, but twice?
He had to set the record straight for himself.
“You two fathers are really thinking too much. Given William’s current condition, how could he possibly do anything to me? It’s already good enough that I’m not taking action against him.”
Lin Su felt that even though his figure wasn’t as tall and imposing as William’s, it didn’t necessarily mean he was submissive. If he were to force himself on him, considering William’s current strength, he would easily overpower him.
Of course, he wouldn’t do that. Such matters should be based on mutual consent!
Thinking like this, Lin Su couldn’t help but draw circles with his tiptoe on the ground, feeling a hint of anticipation in his heart.
Kane and Su Jin were stunned. They thought about William’s current state of weakness, and indeed, it seemed like he couldn’t handle much. Their faces couldn’t help but blush. It seemed that concern could lead to confusion.
“Then why were you walking like that last time?”
“And what’s wrong with your complexion?”
Lin Su also remembered the misunderstood walking posture from last time and the ointment hidden at the bottom of the drawer. “I slipped and strained my groin while cultivating fruits. That’s why I walked like that. This complexion is because it’s hot in the room in the morning. It became like this when I woke up!”
Saying that, Lin Su raised his hand and rubbed his cheek. Who told him he had thin skin? It’s not like he couldn’t control himself just because he was touched on the head by the big fox!
Kane and Su Jin exchanged glances. They really didn’t expect to cause such a misunderstanding. They coughed unnaturally and admonished with a stiff tone, “Since that’s the case, then it’s fine. But William is indeed not in good health now, so it’s better if you don’t bother him.”
“That’s for sure!” Lin Su felt that he was quite considerate of his wife. Besides touching and hugging the other party’s tail, he had never been physically intimate. That could be considered quite gentlemanly, right?
After having breakfast, Lin Su felt the power of the Wood-element ability in his body. As expected, after repairing the beast patterns for Kane yesterday, there were signs of advancement in his ability, with ample room for growth before reaching the next level.
There was hope, after all.
As long as he continued to repair the beast patterns, his ability would continue to advance.
Thinking like this, Lin Su looked at William with his black and shining cat eyes, a hint of cunning visible. He reached out and pulled his sleeve. “I want to take another look at your beast pattern.”
In the instant Lin Su pulled his sleeve, William’s body stiffened for a moment, but he quickly relaxed, lightly nodding and unbuttoning his collar.
Lin Su felt somewhat happy to see him cooperate like this. He knelt beside William, placing his hand on his chest. A faint green light emitted from his palm, and Lin Su’s expression became serious. The fluttering black eyelashes trembled delicately, carrying a fragile beauty.
While half-closing his eyes, a restrained emotion rolled in William’s golden eyes.
As soon as Lin Su’s ability emerged, the red beast pattern on William’s chest appeared, and greedily began devouring it.
Indeed, his Wood-element ability was too low for William. Not to mention healing, he couldn’t even alleviate his condition.
He was genuinely curious about how high the genetic level of the big fox was compared to Kane, who was a B-rank contracted beastman.
That vast and boundless beast pattern, so immense that he didn’t dare delve into it, evoked fear within him.
As the Wood-element ability dissipated from his hand, Lin Su regretfully shook his head. “It seems it’s still not possible. You’ll have to wait a little longer.”
After tidying up William’s collar, he was about to stand up, but his legs went numb, and he leaned directly into William’s arms.
Facing the sudden situation, William instinctively reached out and embraced the small female rushing towards him. In that moment of embrace, the pleasant fragrance emitted by the small female intensified.
Caught off guard, his body tilted backward due to inertia.
A soft touch came from his lips, causing William’s body to stiffen instantly, afraid to move. A calm and composed golden gaze reflected his inner panic.
Lin Su opened his eyes, and the soft sensation on his lips caused his heart to skip a beat. Just as he was about to scramble out of William’s embrace in a fluster, the half-closed door was pushed open from outside by Su Jin, who had come looking for someone. Su Jin was astonished and exclaimed, “Uh, um… You two continue…”
The moment the words fell, he quickly lowered his head and closed the door in one smooth motion.
Lin Su hurriedly crawled out of William’s embrace, his face blushing, and quickly glanced at William lying on the bed. He explained, “My leg went numb just now. Are you okay?”
William, lying flat on the bed, seemed frozen, as if someone had touched his acupoint. It was only upon hearing Lin Su’s words that his eyes twitched slightly, and his hands, lying by his sides, instinctively clenched.
Seeing that his facial expression seemed relatively normal, Lin Su, feeling guilty, didn’t ask any further. He used his hands and feet to climb off the bed, feeling that he might have a hard time explaining himself to Su Jin.
He had promised not to make a fuss with William in the morning, but Su Jin ended up catching them in the act.
As he wiped his face, he accidentally touched his lip and felt a sudden stinging pain. Frowning, he gently touched it and saw blood on his fingertips.
He just realized that he seemed to have bumped his lip just now, as if it was cut.
Turning his head to look at William, who was still lying on the bed, he indeed noticed a conspicuous red mark on the big fox’s mouth.
“Cough, does your mouth hurt? It seems like it got injured just now, but wounds in this area heal quickly. Just try not to lick it.” After saying these words, Lin Su felt that he couldn’t stay any longer. The atmosphere in the room was really too strange!
William, only after hearing the sound of the door closing, seemed to regain his senses. His stiff body moved slightly, and then he curled up, burying his face in the pillow. His canine ears on top of his head couldn’t help but tremble, and his scattered fox tail curled into a twist.
As Lin Su came out of the room, he saw Su Jin standing at the doorway. He cleared her throat and said, “Female Father, what did you need from me just now?”
Su Jin still felt a bit awkward in his heart. After all, Lin Su had just said that William wasn’t in good health and couldn’t do anything, dispelling their previous misunderstanding. He even felt somewhat apologetic towards William.
Originally, he was thinking about how to make up for this misunderstanding, but he never expected that Lin Su, who had just promised not to cause trouble with William, would immediately pin him down and kiss him!
He really needed to reconsider her previous impression of their small female.
The instructions this morning were indeed right, perhaps even a bit late. He didn’t know if William’s condition had been deteriorating all this time…
“Xiao Su, you’ve come out. The guest has been waiting here for a while.” Kane came over and saw Lin Su, hastily saying, “Su Jin, what are you thinking here? Why didn’t you tell Xiao Su to come out?”
Su Jin snapped back to reality and looked at Lin Su with a hesitant gaze, making Lin Su feel a tingling sensation on his scalp. What should he do to make the female father believe that he really didn’t force himself onto the big fox? Everything was just a misunderstanding!
“Go and attend to the guest first. We’ll talk later.”
Lin Su also knew that now was not a good time to explain. Nodding, he walked out of the room.
Zhao An, standing in the courtyard, was wearing a beige windbreaker. The tailored design made him look tall and elegant.
When Zhao An saw Lin Su, he smiled and said, “I’m here again, Your Excellency.”
Lin Su smiled in response, “Just call me by my name. Have you finished eating the fruits you bought before? Why did you come so quickly? Is there something else?”
“I haven’t finished eating them yet. I came today to buy some more. Also, I wanted to express my gratitude. Your fruits have really had a great effect on my partner. After eating the fruits yesterday, not only did he have a good night’s sleep, but his complexion also improved a lot when he woke up in the morning. He said the swelling sensation in his spiritual domain disappeared. He wanted to come with me today, but he has just started recovering, so I didn’t want him to exert themselves. Please understand.”
Lin Su had known before that Zhao An bought these fruits for his partner who had a mental disorder. Now, hearing Zhao An talk about how the fruits had helped them, he felt happy for him. “That’s good to hear. I don’t know what level of mental disorder your partner has?”
“It’s level D, but there are signs of him ascending to level C, so I’ve been really worried. His condition wasn’t good when I last came.”
As Zhao An mentioned this, he still had lingering fears in his heart.
Lin Su nodded. “Has your partner mentioned how he feels after eating the fruits?”
Realizing that Lin Su was seeking feedback, Zhao An willingly cooperated and said, “He mentioned feeling a cool sensation in his spiritual domain. The painful swelling sensation has eased after eating the fruits, and the insomnia symptoms have also improved.”
Lin Su thought about how William didn’t experience such strong effects after eating the fruits. It seemed that the fruits cultivated according to his current ability level didn’t have a significant impact on William’s mental disorder.
“Thank you. I also wanted to know if these fruits really have an effect on mental disorders. Hearing what you said, I feel relieved. What would you like to buy today? Currently, we have oranges, strawberries, and cherry tomatoes.”
Zhao An noticed that the male beastman who made him feel familiar last time wasn’t present, so he didn’t inquire and smiled, “I know you also sell some vegetables here. Can I buy some?”
“We only have a small portion of vegetables available at the moment.” Lin Su looked towards the vegetables growing in the nearby plot, “We can offer some green beans and cucumbers.”
“That’s great.”
Lin Su filled a bag with some green beans and cucumbers, plucked two large oranges from the tree, and three big strawberries.
The total came to over 5000 beast coins.
After Zhao An transferred the money, Lin Su smiled and said, “You can follow Ai Su Fruit and Vegetable Shop online when you go back. If you don’t have time to come and buy, you can place an order online, which is more convenient.”
After seeing Zhao An leave with satisfaction, Lin Su turned his head and met Su Jin’s hesitant gaze.
His heart tightened, “Female Father, actually, just now with William, we…”
“Female Father understands. Female Father is also an experienced person.”
It was understandable for someone to lose control when faced with such beauty. This was the conclusion Su Jin came to after thinking for a long time. After all, even if William’s body wasn’t in the best condition, there was no denying that he was exceptionally attractive. It was normal for young people to not be able to resist temptation!
Unbeknownst to Lin Su, whose mind was already preoccupied: No…
