Shen Yanxiao’s small face was red, but she did not feel as shy as before. She curled up like a cat and huddled herself in Xiu's arms.

"I'm still young." Shen Yanxiao whispered.

"I know." Xiu embraced the little fellow in his arms and tried to suppress certain impulses. His voice was low and full of magical charm.

Shen Yanxiao let out a low laugh. The hair on the top of her head rubbed against the tip of Xiu's nose. Xiu narrowed his eyes and also rubbed them against her head.

Breathing in the scent that belonged to Shen Yanxiao gave him unprecedented satisfaction.

Shen Yanxiao deliberately raised her head, and sure enough, Xiu was looking down at her. Although he hid it well, Shen Yanxiao saw the caution hidden in his eyes. Shen Yanxiao knew she’d been quite bad. She raised her chin and let her lips brush against Xiu’s cheeks.

"Xiu."

"Hm?" Although it was only a single syllable, it was somewhat dull and gloomy. Xiu's fingertips gently kneaded her hair.

"I have asked Qi Xia to look for the whereabouts of the warlocks." Shen Yanxiao leaned on Xiu's chest and said.

She hoped that he could get his body sooner so that his embrace would no longer be cold.

She looked forward to the moment when she could feel his temperature, feel the warmth from him, and no longer be made her feel a slight sense of loss when he clearly touched her body, brushed her skin, but what she felt was coldness from his fingertips.

"When you finally find it, I am going to hug you for real." Shen Yanxiao opened her mouth with a smile.

Xiu’s eyes were slightly sunken and his kiss overwhelmingly covered her lips before giving her any time to respond. It was obviously so cold, without any trace of warmth, but it was like a spark that started a prairie fire, igniting a cluster of flames on the edge of her gloomy lips. The alternation of chill and heat interlaced between the contact of their teeth and lips. The icy tip of his tongue plundered every bit of sweetness in her mouth, and teasingly guided her stiff tongue to wrap around it.

Every nerve of his powerful arms tightened. He firmly wrapped his arms around her, bowed his head down and buried his face in her neck, smelling the scent that belonged to her. He felt the constant warmth from her body, as if that warmth from their contact were constantly infecting his cold soul.

He had never thanked God for giving him life and strength, but at this moment, he was very grateful to God for sending Shen Yanxiao to him.

It let him know that his heart was not really made of ice.

Shen Yanxiao was like a ray of sunshine, shining upon Xiu's soul. And the little warmth given to his very soul would gradually melt the glacier.

Xiu had never thought of all of these things. For countless years, he had never thought that in this world, there was a person who could make him, who was someone intensely proud of his self-control, collapse in an instant. The burning repressed emotions in his heart seemed to be little by little urged on by her.

"Little Xiao, you need to grow up quickly." Xiu's voice was very low, and his breath splashed on Shen Yanxiao's neck, making her feel a little itchy.

Shen Yanxiao blushed slightly. She seemed to understand the message behind Xiu’s words.

She stretched out her hands, hugging Xiu as she answered in a low voice:

"All right."

In the study, the two people embraced each other quietly and seemed to have forgotten everything in the world.

This moment belonged to them only.

Even if the world fell apart in the future, at least for this moment, they were happy.
