Chapter 211 - The Mysterious Food Thief (1)
After a while, he let go of her hands and put his hands on her waist and the back of her head and pressed his body against hers. After entangling her for a long time, he finally let her go a bit to let her catch her breath.
Bei Nuan took two breaths. With a somewhat red face, she said, "I thought you would want a candy-flavored…"
Lu Xingchi said in a hoarse voice, "I don't want candy. I only want you."
Bei Nuan knew that he had been thinking about kissing her for a long time yesterday.
He moved closer to her again. He kissed her. There was an inexplicable irritableness in his tenderness. He only used a little bit of strength to press her against the wall as if he wanted to entangle her to death.
Bei Nuan felt like she wasn't getting enough air. She felt dizzy. In a daze, she felt his lips leaving hers. He bit her chin like an animal. His kisses trailed downwards.
He let go of her head and stroked her neck, ears, and collarbone. His lips followed the path of his fingertips.
The temperature felt scalding.
She felt the imprint of his kisses on her skin. It felt a lot more unbridled than before like he was rampantly invading unfamiliar territory. And yet, he was also more restrained than before. There was a gentleness to his controlled movements as if he was worried about scaring her off with his new approach to intimacy.
Bei Nuan couldn't think straight. Her eyes were half-closed.
As he went lower, his body no longer blocked her line of sight. She suddenly saw something downstairs.
"Lu Xingchi." Her mind instantly cleared up.
"Hmh?" Lu Xingchi stopped and looked up at her.
Bei Nuan whispered, "Look downstairs."
While they were engrossed with kissing, half of the cassava chips had disappeared from the coffee table, but there was no one in sight.
Bei Nuan ignored Lu Xingchi. With her eyes open wide, she saw a small golden brown paw reach out from under the coffee table. With a swipe of its paw, a cassava chip disappeared from her sight.
A few seconds later, it reached out again. It had probably finished eating the previous chip. This time, it poked out its small fluffy golden brown head. She saw its shiny black eyes.
Lu Xingchi turned to look and saw the animal too. He sighed. He didn't let go of her hand. Looking like he was reluctant to part from her, he lowered his head and pecked her lips before raising his right hand.
In the living room, a metal chair suddenly flew up and shot towards the small animal by the coffee table.
Scared, the little animal leapt up and tried to escape over the sofa.
It was only now that Bei Nuan got a clear look of the animal. It was a young monkey that was covered in thick golden brown fur. The fur on its back was dark, and the fur on its stomach was very light. Its long tail was curled.
It was fast, but Lu Xingchi was even faster. He split the four legs of the chair into many sections and transformed them into the bars of a cage while it was flying in the air. He caught the young monkey and trapped it on the sofa.
Bei Nuan quickly said, "Be gentle!"
"Don't worry," Lu Xingchi said with a smile, "I know. I didn't hurt it."
The caught monkey kept running around in the chair cage and screeching. Even though it was anxious, it still clutched the cassava chip in its two front paws.
Bei Nuan ran upstairs to call people over. By now, everyone was awake and came downstairs to look at the monkey.
"So it was a monkey? How did it get here?" Tang Tang was curious.
"The owner of the house probably kept it as a pet. Once its owner turned into a zombie, the monkey hid itself, " Jiang Fei analyzed.
Lu Xingchi refuted, "Not necessarily. There are a lot of monkeys in this part of the country. It could be a wild monkey. It might have snuck into the house to find something to eat when it saw there was no one around."
However, he seemed to be wrong.
Although the monkey had panicked when it was caught and kept moving around and screaming, it eventually calmed down.
It blinked at Bei Nuan and looked extra pitiful. It didn't seem scared of humans.
Its golden brown fur was dense and sleek. It looked quite clean, like a pet and not like an animal that had to survive out in the wild.
Bei Nuan picked up a cassava chip from the coffee table and carefully offered it to the monkey through the cage bars.
Seeing this, the monkey stuffed its current cassava chip into its mouth and reached out to take the new one.
It must be quite hungry.
Its stature was quite small, about the size of a big cat. It would be easy for it to slip into the shadows, and it was normal that the others hadn't been able to find it earlier.
After the monkey had finished eating the cassava chips, Bei Nuan took out fresher ones from her pocket space.
"Don't eat too much of this at a time. It's hard to digest," Bei Nuan persuaded the monkey.
The monkey tilted its head as if it was trying to discern what she was saying from her body language and also like it was trying to understand her words.
