The morning sunlight shone into the cave through the water curtain slowly. The cave was not as bright as outside but it was much brighter than at night.

Xuanyuan Mo woke up and glimpsed the sound sleeping face next to him. A glint of affection flashed across his eyes.

Although he was in a coma last night, he still knew what she had done. Thinking of how she fed the medicine to him, Xuanyuan Mo couldn’t help blushing.

Awoken by the smell of meat, Duanmu Xi found she was still covered by the young man’s black coat. While she was in a daze, a nicely grilled rabbit leg appeared before her.

“Thank you.”

Duanmu Xi took over the rabbit leg subconsciously.

“Here is your coat.”

Duanmu Xi stood up and passed the black coat to the young man.

After taking a glance at Duanmu Xi’s ill-fitting white clothes, Xuanyuan Mo slightly blushed and then looked away quickly.

“You can keep it. I have other clothes.”

It was then that Duanmu Xi realized that the young man was wearing a black brocade robe rather than the white underwear only.

Looking at his bashful face, Duanmu Xi was a bit dumbfounded by the ancient people’s reservedness and also amused by his shyness.

“Thank you then.”

It occurred to her that the Hantian Continent was a matriarchal society. No wonder the young man before her blushed so easily.

Xuanyuan Mo didn’t dare to look back at her until she put on his coat.

Xuanyuan Mo slightly smiled. Somehow, he was happy to see her wearing his clothes.

After they finished breakfast, Xuanyuan Mo took out a semicircular black pendant with wolf grains from his arms and passed it to Duanmu Xi.

“Xuanyuan Mo is my name. Take this. Thank you.”

Duanmu Xi took over the pendant. It was as dark as ink and exquisite as mutton fat, which was smooth, bright and clean.

Was this a token of gratitude for her? Quite sincere.

Duanmu Xi fiddled with it for a while and then put it into her arms carefully.

Xuanyuan Mo was elated to see her accept his pendant.

“I’m leaving.”

Duanmu Xi got up and adjusted the black coat that was slightly large for her.

“Where are you going?”

Xuanyuan Mo was a bit puzzled by her sudden farewell.

“Home.”

“Let me send you back home then.”

Xuanyuan Mo just didn’t want to part with her so he blurted it out then.

Duanmu Xi smacked her mouth. They were not close at all. How could she let him send her back home?

Lanze also smacked its mouth in the mental space. She clearly kissed the young man yesterday. Were they really not close?

“I’m not familiar with the current world at all. It’s great to have him as a companion. At least I can avoid taking the wrong paths,” she thought.

“Okay. Thank you.”

The two of them came to the water curtain cave mouth.

“I’m sorry.”

Before Duanmu Xi realized what he meant, Xuanyuan Mo directly held her in his arms and flew out of the water curtain cave together.

Duanmu Xi was freaked out by Xuanyuan Mo’s sudden action. Her hands immediately held around his waist tightly and her face was also deeply buried in his arms subconsciously.

Xuanyuan Mo was stiffened and his heart skipped a beat. Originally, he wanted to arrive at the bank as soon as possible but now he only wished that time could remain at the current moment.

Eventually, they arrived at the bank and immediately got off each other as if getting an electronic shock.

“I’m sorry that I scared you. I…”

Xuanyuan Mo was at a loss with embarrassment. He hadn’t been so close to any girl before. For now, he had no idea how to explain to her at all.

Looking at Xuanyuan Mo’s bashful face, Duanmu Xi felt this man was so shy. Even cold as her, she couldn’t help teasing him.

Duanmu Xi turned around and gazed at Xuanyuan Mo primly.

“Don’t be nervous. I’ll be responsible for you. And remember my name. I’m Duanmu Xi. You are mine from now on. You must keep your virginity for me. If you are stained, I will return you then.”

Completely stupefied, Xuanyuan Mo just stayed in situ and didn’t notice Duanmu Xi had gone far away.

She would be responsible for him? He must keep the virginity for her? Did she get it backward?

However, why was he still so happy? A rush of unspeakable joy just filled his heart.

Duanmu Xi walked for a long distance but Xuanyuan Mo still didn’t keep up. Hence, she went back to find him.

“Are you okay? I was kidding just now. Don’t take it seriously.”

Duanmu Xi’s explanation just made Xuanyuan Mo down in the dumps as if striking thunder on him.

“You said you would be responsible for me. How can you go back on your words so quickly?”

What did he mean? And why did he put on such a look? Why did he seem even weirder after she explained?

“Did you take advantage of me just now? And now you don’t want to be responsible for me.”

Duanmu Xi stared at Xuanyuan Mo in astonishment. Unexpectedly, this cold young man would be so cheeky.

“Do your words count or not?”

“Of course.”

Duanmu Xi nodded in a daze.

“Good. Since you said you would be responsible for me, I will also keep my virginity for you and you can’t return the goods at will!”

Regardless of Duanmu Xi’s reaction, Xuanyuan Mo just walked forward. His curled lips indicated his good mood.

Now, Duanmu Xi was stupefied. She didn’t expect the only joke she told over the 18 years just got herself into such a big trouble. She shouldn’t have joked randomly.

“Hey, Xuanyuan Mo, wait…”
