Shen Tang didn’t notice the confrontation outside the window.
She was so exhausted... how could she care about anything else?
The system automatically shielded itself when she was getting intimate with her Beast Husband and didn’t remind her.
The sky was just showing a hint of dawn, and only then did Xiao Jin reluctantly let go of Shen Tang.
She was exhausted and fell into a deep sleep.
Xiao Jin carried her to the bathroom, cleaned her up, laid back on the bed, gently held her in his arms, and kissed her forehead.
His thick leopard tail wrapped around her waist, gently stroking.
A barely noticeable affection flashed in his eyes.
[Congratulations to the host, Xiao Jin affinity +20!]
Unfortunately, Shen Tang had long fallen asleep and didn’t hear the system’s notification.
Shen Tang slept until the next afternoon, and no one came to wake her up in between.
When she woke up, no one was beside her, and the bedding was cold. Xiao Jin must have left for a while.
She looked down at her bare body, her face flushed with embarrassment, swore at that damn leopard for being so inconsiderate, quickly put on her clothes, and touched her empty stomach, planning to find some food in the fridge.
As she was going downstairs, she bumped into Shen Li coming over.
"Xiao Tang’er, you’re finally awake. I was just about to call you." The red-haired young man smiled gently, his eyes showing a hint of fatigue as if he hadn’t slept well all night.
Shen Tang felt guilty; surely they didn’t hear anything last night, right?
Shen Li glanced at her blushing cheeks, feeling a little moved, but when he approached her, he noticed the red marks on her neck, and his eyes darkened.
The fingertips by his side involuntarily clenched.
Even he hadn’t noticed.
Shen Tang noticed Shen Li staring at her directly, instinctively followed his gaze, and her face turned crimson. She hurriedly pulled her collar up and gave him an awkward smile, "Brother Li, um, is there any leftover food in the fridge? I’ll go heat it up."
"The meal is ready, just waiting for you to eat." Shen Li’s expression softened, his lips curving into a gentle smile.
Shen Tang was surprised. It was already two or three in the afternoon, past lunchtime, yet they were still waiting for her?
Shen Tang walked to the dining table and saw all the Beast Husbands were there.
Jia Lan and the others looked a bit strange, their gazes on her carrying a hint of something meaningful.
Shen Tang’s heart skipped a beat, but she didn’t have time to think about it as Shen Li pulled her to sit down right next to him.
Shen Tang sat with Shen Li on her right and Jia Lan on her left.
On the further sides were Lu Xiao and Xue Yinzhou, respectively.
The table was a rectangular one, and Xiao Jin was placed at the farthest end from her.
Xiao Jin’s eyes darkened, and he got up, walked over, and knocked on Jia Lan’s chair back, "Get up, switch places with me."
"If you’re so idle, go out of the city and hunt two more prey. I’m seated well here, why should I switch with you?" Jia Lan’s face was full of displeasure, and his tone impatient.
He hadn’t slept well all night and was quite irritable, wishing he could skin this damn leopard.
Xiao Jin raised an eyebrow, casual, "What, don’t tell me you’ve fallen for this little chubby girl and can’t bear to leave?"
"You, what nonsense are you spouting!" Jia Lan’s handsome face flushed, and he jumped up from the chair as if electrocuted.
Xiao Jin quickly grabbed the chair back and sat down first, not even giving Jia Lan a chance to regret.
