The kiss between the two was not the first time; Qiu Wuji had even taken the initiative to kiss him. But whether it was a psychological effect or not, she felt that this kiss was very comfortable.
It was more comfortable than the stiff and nervous first kiss, and more comfortable than the time when she couldnât help but kiss him later, and he was bewildered.
The afternoon was warm and cozy. She lazily leaned against his chest, and he leaned down to kiss her affectionately. She responded gracefully. The laziness was gentle, the laziness was intoxicating. No need to think about anything, no need to do anything, just feel his love, just let him savor her sweetness.
Her mind was empty, with a slight tingling sensation of electric currents, and something was stirring in her heart.
Both of them had a desire to go further, but they were somewhat clumsy. Chu Ge tried to lock lips, but Qiu Wuji released her lips. Then he winced slightly in pain and made a muffled groan, and the entire atmosphere vanished.
Both of them opened their eyes, their expressions somewhat awkward yet also slightly playful. Chu Ge, like a cheeky guy, wanted to try again, but Qiu Wuji lowered her head and pushed him away, saying, âOkay⦠thatâs enough. The dishes havenât been washed yetâ¦â
âWhatâs the big deal about washing dishes?â
âJust go out⦠itâs enough like this! Mmmâ¦â
Their lips were sealed once again, but this time it lacked the previous tenderness. Chu Ge kissed her deeply and then smiled, saying, âIâll wash them.â
Qiu Wuji didnât insist and left with a muddled mind.
Whenever he kissed her, she always felt so weak, not at all in line with her demeanor. Maybe next time she should take the lead again, that would be more appropriateâ¦
But what Mengmeng said seemed to make sense. Was she teasing him and igniting his desire without taking responsibility?
Why does this kind of thing have to be so complicated?
Qiu Wuji sat on the sofa, hugging a pig-shaped pillow and watching TV, feeling annoyed. The actors in the TV drama were also kissing, but their kisses didnât look good at all.
Not as good as ours.
After a while, Chu Ge quickly finished washing the dishes and came out, sitting right next to her.
Qiu Wuji moved away about half a foot, showing her disdain. Chu Ge stubbornly moved closer, sticking by her side and she glared at him angrily.
He reached out and embraced her shoulder.
Qiu Wuji pursed her lips and leaned against his shoulder, watching TV. After the silent drama, she lazily broke the silence: âHow much have you written?â
Chu Ge chuckled helplessly, âYouâve been pressuring me a lot in the group chat.â
âBecause I always feel like youâre not focusing on your work.â
âYou are my work.â
âDonât use that line.â Qiu Wuji said, âThat book is not just a source of income for us. You know it has a more important meaning. Otherwise, why would I keep urging you every now and thenâ¦â
âDonât worry.â Chu Ge smiled, âWhen Iâm writing, I often multitask. Like last night, you thought I was watching live streaming and wasting a lot of time, but I was actually writing the entire time. I finished the draft this morning. After my mom finished teaching me this morning, I exercised while writing. By the time you and Zhu Mengmeng arrived, I had finished the second chapter, and I wrote half a chapter while cookingâ¦â
As a novice writer, Qiu Wuji couldnât help but feel envious. âYouâre so efficient⦠Does it never get stuck?â
âIt does get stuck. The previous stage of being stuck has passed, and now Iâve found my rhythm, so itâs efficient. Plus, it can still get stuck, right?â
Qiu Wuji wanted to say that she always gets stuck. It takes her a whole day to write a chapter. But thatâs despite having a ready-made story, which is really frustrating.
As if reading her mind, Chu Ge said, âLately, the group chat hasnât been mocking my short chapters much, but theyâve been urging me for the âmain text.â When will your next chapter be out?â
âWellâ¦â Qiu Wujiâs gaze wandered, âAfter finishing this TV show, Iâll start writing. Iâll try to finish it tonightâ¦â
Chu Ge said, âIâve applied to the editor. From now on, that chapter will be released as a special bonus for the complete edition.â
Qiu Wuji was taken aback. âThereâs no need for that.â
Chu Ge playfully tapped her nose. âBut itâs your hard work too.â
Qiu Wuji lazily rested her head on his shoulder and remained silent, feeling sweet in her heart. He cares about this. He values my efforts.
Both of them silently watched the TV for about ten seconds and felt that it wasnât interesting at all. Qiu Wuji finally didnât want to watch anymore and lazily spoke up. âYou have two abilities related to space, right? One is the invisibility you used in the corridor before?â
âYeah,â Chu Ge felt a bit embarrassed. âI thought that kind of invisibility would be relatively advanced, and with your mana depleted, you might not be able to detect it. But it turns out you still saw through itâ¦â
âThe perception is different. It doesnât rely on mana; itâs based on spiritual consciousness, or you could say spiritual perception, even experience and warnings,â Qiu Wuji smiled. âMoreover, your invisibility, in the early stages of learning, with unstable aura and spatial fluctuations, any experienced cultivator can tell thereâs an ambush. It may be advanced, and thereâs great potential in the future, but at this stage of initial learning, it might be better to rely on blocking the line of sight.â
Chu Ge chuckled, âEven though you donât study space, it seems like you understand it better than my mom.â
Qiu Wuji sighed, âTen thousand years of experience⦠Honestly, even I feel a bit weird calling her âauntieââ¦â
Chu Ge couldnât help but laugh.
Qiu Wuji huffed, âWhat are you laughing at? Itâs all because of your made-up âten thousand yearsâ! If you only wrote for eighteen years, it wouldnât have been so exaggerated.â
âHah, the Sect Master of Cloud Horizon Sect at eighteen, one of the strongest in the Nine Provinces, a transcendent being⦠No one would read this book.â
âWhy wouldnât anyone read it? Iâve seen others write for a few months and become popular, even more popular than you.â
âThey were the main characters.â
âIâm the female lead!â
âOkay, okay, I admit my writing is terrible.â Chu Ge gave in.
Qiu Wuji couldnât maintain her temper and could only grumble, âTheoretically, your ability isnât specifically related to space, but it seems to encompass the transformations of space, so you can use spatial abilities⦠But you donât manipulate space like your mother does. These can only be considered as making connections through similar principles, just like how the Heaven and Earth technique helps you establish a spiritual link. I guess when you become proficient in both, you might be able to combine them into your true comprehensive ability.â
Chu Ge replied with a nod, âHmm, I feel even more confident now, especially after practicing the second use of space.â
âThe second one? What is it?â
Chu Ge suddenly smiled and, with a flick of his right hand from somewhere, conjured a brand new pig-shaped pillow out of thin air. It was chubby and had a bow tie, just like the one Qiu Wuji was holding in her hand at the moment. He smiled faintly, âI actually wanted to surprise you with this when I tried to ambush you before, but Zhu Mengmeng was there, so I didnât have the courage to bring it out.â
Qiu Wujiâs eyes lit up, âWhere did this pig come from! No, wait⦠is this a personal space youâve created?â
Chu Ge sighed in admiration. âYouâre really sharp, Qiuqiu~â
Qiu Wujiâs eyes sparkled, âA portable space? How big is it? Let me tell you, this room is too small. After I moved in, my things kept increasing, and now it feels so cramped. Can I use this space to store miscellaneous items?â
Chu Ge: â???â
Qiu Wuji: ââ¦â
Both of them were at a loss for words for a moment.
Is this the first thought that comes to the mind of a generationâs Sect Master after seeing a portable space?
The air quieted down for a while until Chu Ge cleared his throat and said, âThe space is actually quite small, about the size of a backpack. Itâs okay for storing some snacks, but forget about other things⦠Iâll make it stronger in the futureâ¦â
âSo when you said you felt more confident, you meant that this portable space made you feel the sense of âownershipâ and âoverlookingâ the world within the book, right?â
âThatâs right.â Chu Geâs expression became somewhat serious. âThis space is just a reference for my cultivation. Sooner or later, I will make the world within the book just like my portable space. When that time comes, I will truly be⦠the Creator God.â
Qiu Wuji straightened up from his shoulder, looked at him intently for a moment, and suddenly smiled, âYou already are.â
Chu Ge: âUmâ¦â
Qiu Wuji smiled seductively and gently leaned closer, âMy Creator God, are you planning to put two identical pigs on the bed and coax me to sleep together?â
Chu Geâs mouth went dry.
With your tone and posture, do you want me to answer yes or no? Why do I feel that if I answer yes, youâll change your expression?
Chu Ge speculated in his heart and immediately replied, âThis is a gift for you. You can arrange it however you like, use it however you wantâ¦â
âMy Creator God is so considerate to his female devotee⦠What can I do to repay you?â
Chu Ge couldnât resist this astonishing charm. He felt that this was not the time to answer the question, but rather a moment to pounce and indulge in passion. However, he also felt like it could be a trap, and actually pouncing could easily lead to deathâ¦
He didnât dare to truly pounce. He dodged and evaded, and finally, in a sorry state, he stood up and ran away, saying, âI-Iâll go practice my powers and then write⦠Y-You restâ¦â
Seeing Chu Ge fleeing like his life depended on it, Qiu Wujiâs seductive demeanor vanished, replaced by a smiling and slightly squinted expression.
With one hand on each little pig, she swiftly brought the two pigs close together and âpop,â they kissed.
Qiu Wujiâs eyes formed crescents as she laughed.
