Pregnant Bunny, Obsessed Beast Husbands
Chapter 231: Head Over Heels for Her?Yu Zhizhi placed her palms on his lean, solid back. She rubbed slowly, wanting the ointment to seep into his skin so he could recover faster and more completely.
Shen He’s body tensed slightly. This was the first time he had been touched like this by a female.
’The little rabbit’s hands are so warm, so soft.’
As she worked on his back, what felt like significant pressure to her was nothing more than a tickle to Shen He.
Yu Zhizhi worked her way up from the base of his spine.
When she reached his shoulders, she shifted into a kneeling position just so she could reach them properly.
’This man’s awakened superpower is just so brutal. Shattered flesh and blood, reforming... If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I’d never believe such a talent could exist.’
Yu Zhizhi leaned in closer.
Her knee accidentally brushed against his side. Shen He’s grey eyes narrowed. He could feel the little female drawing nearer and nearer, the sweet jasmine scent from her body growing more potent.
’...Was that an accident, or was it on purpose?’
’The little female doesn’t seem to realize how incredibly attractive her scent is to a male.’
’She actually dared to come to my room alone.’
’And even dared to shut the door.’
A peculiar smile touched the corner of Shen He’s lips. "It’s just the two of us here right now..."
The man’s deep, magnetic voice slowly resonated—
"No matter what I do to you, no one will come to stop it. Isn’t that right, Miss Rabbit?"
The snow-white rabbit ears on Yu Zhizhi’s head twitched. She stared up blankly, her hands unconsciously stilling.
"I... I’m just applying the ointment," she murmured.
Shen He watched her expression. She was a little nervous, a little flustered, as if trying to reassure herself. She nodded, then scooped out more of the cool ointment and applied it to his shoulder blade.
She straightened up and pressed down with both hands, applying a bit of pressure.
Perhaps from the exertion, her small, porcelain-white face gradually flushed, and her breathing grew ragged.
—Shen He was suddenly reminded of that day, when he had sat by the bed and heard the little female’s impossibly soft moans.
That sound was enough to make a man’s bones melt.
He had never forgotten it.
’Applying this ointment is a huge task.’
Yu Zhizhi slowly drew her hands back.
’Finally, done.’
She let out a breath and prepared to get off the bed, but her wrist was suddenly seized in a tight grip.
Yu Zhizhi looked over—
The man’s large, powerful hand was wrapped tightly around her slender wrist. The contrast between his tanned skin and her porcelain-white complexion was stark.
"Wh-What’s wrong?" Yu Zhizhi’s voice was laced with sudden panic.
Her heart hammered uncontrollably in her chest.
Yu Zhizhi could clearly feel the thick calluses between his thumb and forefinger—formed from years of wielding weapons—scraping roughly against her delicate skin.
Shen He turned his head.
He looked up at the young woman on the bed, his gaze intense and silent. In her white dress, she looked as pure as the moon. Her eyes, shimmering with unshed tears, were clear and bright, and her slightly trembling shoulders only added to her pitiful, innocent air.
In the dim room, his gaze was filled with aggression.
Yu Zhizhi’s scalp tingled under his stare.
After a long moment.
An inscrutable smile appeared on Shen He’s face—
’Aren’t you supposed to be an expert at seducing males?’
’Why aren’t you making a move?’
’Or is it that the best predators always present themselves as prey?’
’Has the little rabbit always used this pure, innocent act to make other males fall all over themselves for her? To drive them crazy with desire?’
Perhaps because the last few days on the ship had been relatively peaceful, Yu Zhizhi had almost forgotten that this mysterious man was the very culprit who had abducted her...
’He’s the most dangerous one of all.’
Yu Zhizhi began to struggle, but the man’s grip was too tight, and a faint ache spread through her wrist.
The young woman’s eyes instantly reddened. "Lord Captain, I have to go back and rest..."
The little female’s voice was tinged with a sob. The sight of the red corners of her eyes stirred a strange itch deep within him, and the urge to torment her grew even more intense.
Shen He slowly closed his eyes.
He forcibly suppressed the strange emotion rising within him.
He slowly relaxed his grip. "...Mm."
The novice Miss Healer had assisted Doctor Moluo in treating many soldiers today.
Shen He was always fair with his rewards and punishments.
He cared deeply for every one of his soldiers. The last time she treated the Sea Serpent Youth, he had rewarded her generously.
This time was no exception.
Her "freedom" restored, Yu Zhizhi placed the ointment by the pillow and scrambled off the bed. With stumbling steps, she quickly fled the windowless room.
A long time after she had gone, Shen He slowly opened his eyes.
His grey eyes stared at the white jar of ointment by the pillow, his gaze dark and cold. He slowly pressed his right palm to his forehead. His blood was thrumming. If not for his formidable self-control, that little female would not have been leaving his room tonight.
Yu Zhizhi ran back to her room and dove under the covers.
’I don’t know what that was all about,’ she thought, ’but I just felt that if I had stayed any longer, something terrible would have happened.’
Her thoughts in turmoil, Yu Zhizhi eventually fell into a restless sleep for the night.
By the next day, a good portion of her spiritual power had recovered.
As had become her routine, Yu Zhizhi went to treat the Sea Serpent Youth’s injuries. His situation was different from the other crewmen. While the recent beast tide had been large in number, there had been no Extremely Dark Fallen Species. With Doctor Moluo also on hand, everyone else was recovering well.
The White Snake Youth, however, had been treated by Yu Zhizhi from the start. To prevent any complications, they couldn’t switch healers mid-treatment.
The Tiger Whale Soldier who roomed with the Sea Snake was even more respectful when he saw Yu Zhizhi.
He was just heading out for training, so he left the room.
Yu Zhizhi sat in the chair by the bed. She saw the White Snake Youth’s eyes were deliberately closed. Already accustomed to his aloof demeanor, she said nothing, simply clasping her hands before her as a white Healing light began to materialize.
She didn’t have much spiritual power to begin with, and by the time she finished the treatment, it was almost completely depleted.
The White Snake Youth spoke, a rare occurrence. "...On the table. There are liqueur-filled chocolates. From Greenfield City in Varolan."
They had been found by chance in the ship’s cargo hold yesterday.
They were probably left behind by tourists from Varolan.
He would never eat food produced by the Valoran Empire. But they all knew Miss Rabbit was from Varolan.
And the Rabbit Clan of Varolan all came from Greenfield City.
So, this was a taste of her hometown.
She had come every day to treat his injuries.
He felt he should show his appreciation in some way.
The Tiger Whale was right. No matter how much he loathed the Valoran Empire, his father’s death had nothing to do with this Miss Rabbit.
This was the first time Yu Zhizhi had ever received a gift—and from one of her patients, no less!
She was thrilled!
"Thank you, Si Qi!" Yu Zhizhi picked up the exquisite box from the table, her face beaming with delight.
The Sea Serpent Youth’s expression stiffened slightly when he heard her say his name.
Yu Zhizhi left, clutching the box of liqueur-filled chocolates to her chest.
Her heart was filled with a sweet warmth.
’So this is how fulfilling it is to be a Healer,’ she thought, ’especially watching a patient get better day by day.’
As the young woman left the room, many soldiers saw her along the way.
’Her smile is so sweet. I wonder what happened in there?’
’Did Sea Snake Siqi say or do something to her?’
’Looks like Si Qi gave her a gift...’
’Could it be? Have they developed feelings for each other after spending so much time together every day?’
’When you think about it, Si Qi is the brilliant rising star of the Sea Snake Clan, one of Lord Shen He’s most capable officers. His future is limitless.’
’Plus, he’s incredibly handsome and very popular with the females.’
’Ms. Zhi Zhi is an S-Class female. If she really likes him, all she’d have to do is say the word and he’d be hers.’
The brown-haired youth stood on the deck, reporting everything in detail.
He saw the long saber in Lord Shen He’s hand falter for a split second.
"What was that?" He stopped his training.
The brown-haired youth said earnestly, "Si Qi gave a box of chocolates to Ms. Zhi Zhi, and she seemed very happy with it."
