Chapter 105: A Step Further

Meeting her cousin's gaze, Niruis blushed and tried to pull away, but Xu Feng held her hand tightly. "What's there to be scared of, silly?"

As he spoke, Xu Feng took the Snake Clan's Young Princess's hand with his other hand, holding both of his fiancées, one on each side, and walked toward the center of the camp.

The air was filled with the aroma of food. During the journey, the spread wasn't fancy, but the three of them sat together and shared a cozy, happy meal.

"Ni'er, have some food."

"Xiaoya, the three-leaf beast ham tastes great. Here, try a piece."

...

Every time Xu Feng tasted something delicious, he would slip a bite to his two girlfriends. Don't underestimate this simple act. In this male-dominated world, men, especially those with power and status, were often only interested in a girl's body. Few were as gentle and considerate as Xu Feng.

Arola felt this even more deeply. She had already been intimate with Xu Feng. She had often heard that men would discard a girl like trash after luring her to bed, but Brother Xu Feng remained just as gentle and caring as before.

She really hadn't misjudged him!

Although Niruis didn't say anything, she was also deeply moved inside. This was evident from how she occasionally put food in Xu Feng's bowl as well. If the Behemoth King and his wife were here, they'd never have dreamed their daughter could be so well-behaved.

After dinner, the sky was completely dark, but it was still early for bedtime. Xu Feng wanted to take his two girlfriends for a walk.

"Brother Xu Feng, you and my cousin go ahead. I still have some things to do."

The Snake Clan's Young Princess shook her head and declined. In truth, she didn't really have anything to do; she simply wanted to create some alone time for her boyfriend and cousin. She could see that Xu Feng and Ni'er had made significant progress and wanted to help them take the next step.

How could Xu Feng not see her thoughtful intentions? He felt both gratified and moved. Hailanxing was truly wonderful. If this were Earth, with his flirtatious ways, he would have long been beaten to a pulp by his girlfriend.

"Sweetheart, thank you."

Xu Feng kissed Arola on the cheek, vowing to show her even more love in return.

Though it was just a kiss, Arola still blushed in front of her cousin and nudged Xu Feng. "Go on!"

Holding Niruis's hand, they walked out of the camp. Along the way, the notoriously willful Behemoth Princess remained silent. After all, this was their first date. No matter how strong-willed a girl might be, she would still feel nervous.

The moon hung high in the sky. Passing through the woods, they came upon a grassy field with a small stream ahead. The scenery, while not exceptionally beautiful, was refreshing and pleasant.

"Ni'er, let's sit here for a while."

"Mm."

Niruis nodded. It was rare for this little princess to appear so quiet and gentle. He needed to seize the opportunity. How exactly could he win this little beauty's heart?

Xu Feng was experienced with girls, but someone like Niruis was a first for him. Although the little princess was behaving well for now, there was no guarantee she wouldn't become willful again later.

After pondering for a long time, Xu Feng still hadn't figured out how to create romance. Forget it, he would just go with the flow.

The two sat down on the soft grass, with the stream murmuring nearby. Xu Feng tentatively reached out toward the girl's slender waist, hoping to gently embrace her, but she dodged. Niruis wasn't willing... It seemed their emotional foundation was still shallow. No rush, they could take it slow.

After all, emotions were a process of accumulation. Expecting instant success was nothing but a fantasy.

"Ni'er, tell me about yourself."

"About me?"

"Yes, we're engaged, after all. Shouldn't we get to know each other better?"

Hearing the words "engaged couple," Niruis blushed but didn't refute it this time. "What do you want to know?"

"Anything. Your childhood, interesting things that happened to you, your hobbies and preferences—anything is fine." Xu Feng smiled slightly. "As long as it's related to Ni'er, I'm interested."

Flirtatious playboy's ultimate move number one—sweet talk.

Flattery never fails. As the most esteemed little princess of the Behemoth Clan, countless noble beastmen had tried to win her heart. But how could those crude fellows compare to Xu Feng? Not only his caring words but also his doting tone made Niruis feel warm inside.

Hmph, willful and capricious? So what? When love runs deep, even the hardest steel can be softened into tenderness. Although winning the little princess's love was a significant challenge, Xu Feng was still full of confidence about their future.

"Alright!"

Niruis smiled slightly and began sharing some trivial details from her daily life. As she spoke, she stole glances at Xu Feng. This girl was quite cunning, wanting to see if her boyfriend's actions matched his words. Of course, the result didn't disappoint her. Xu Feng listened attentively. Honestly speaking, the things Niruis talked about weren't particularly interesting, but just looking at the beauty was pleasing to the eye.

From time to time, he interjected a few words. Gradually, Niruis's storytelling turned into a conversation between the two. Xu Feng's hands also grew restless again, reaching once more for the girl's slender waist. Unfortunately, this little princess truly couldn't be judged by common sense—she still nimbly dodged.

Ugh, the atmosphere was so good, yet she still dodged. He wasn't trying to do anything else; couldn't he even get a simple hug?

Xu Feng felt a bit frustrated. Lifting his head, he met the little princess's playful and sly smile. Oh, so this girl was deliberately teasing him!

Xu Feng wasn't someone to be trifled with. How could a real man let his girlfriend "bully" him? A mischievous smile appeared at the corner of Xu Feng's mouth. Suddenly, he leaned in toward those tempting cherry lips and gave them a firm kiss.

It was unclear whether this counted as a kiss, but for Niruis, who was experiencing such intimacy with the opposite sex for the first time, it felt like an electric shock. After the initial shyness came a hint of anger. How dare this rascal take liberties with her!

She wanted to get angry, but Xu Feng had already slipped away. Not only did he run off, but the rascal even turned back and said, "So fragrant! Ni'er, I'm over here!"

This was unbearable! Who would act so smug after taking liberties with a girl? The little princess felt embarrassed and got up to chase after Xu Feng.

Of course, this wasn't genuine anger. Strictly speaking, it was just playful banter between lovers. So Xu Feng wouldn't use magic, and Niruis wouldn't tap into the divine power of her Behemoth bloodline.
