"Water...water..."
Rosa Linda closed her eyes tightly, her hands groping around.
"Here, here." Lin Feng threw down his pickaxe and rushed over to give her water.
But her hands kept thrashing about, almost knocking over the water bottle.
"Water..."
"Don't move around, I'll feed it to you."
Lin Feng held the bottle to her mouth and slowly poured.
But not a drop made it in, she choked it all back out.
He really had no choice but to personally feed her mouth-to-mouth.
Lin Feng first poured some into his own mouth, then pressed his lips to hers.
Rosa Linda's throat bobbed up and down a few times, finally getting it all down.
"Cold..."
Lin Feng immediately set his tools aside and took her into his embrace.
Soon Rosa Linda stopped moving.
He reached under her clothes to check her temperature, while repeatedly squeezing her bunny ears.
Hmm...she still felt warm, so she must have just fallen asleep.
She'd been sleeping like this for a whole day now, crying out whenever she got thirsty.
Lin Feng assessed.
Her poisoning seemed just about gone.
.
About two more hours passed before Rosa Linda finally awoke.
She blinked blankly at Lin Feng.
"Still feeling awful?"
Rosa Linda's head still spun.
She vaguely recalled bouts of hot and cold yesterday, a parched throat, her head cracking open then muddled into porridge.
Too agonizing.
"Much better, thanks for taking care of me." Rosa Linda leaned her face against his shoulder, gazing at his neck and feeling the urge to bite.
Recalling when she was once racked with heart chill fever, curled up day after day on cold straw mat, having to still take care of eating and drinking herself, children attentive yet still mostly alone.
With Lin Feng's companionship these days, she could no longer tolerate solitary living.
Decided, she would give the rest of her life to Lin Feng.
Glancing up at Lin Feng, she saw him smiling.
"What is it? So happy, did you take advantage while I was out?"
Lin Feng mulled it over and told Rosa Linda everything about taking care of her.
When thirsty, feeding her by mouth. When cold, holding her for warmth. When hot, helping undress to cool down. Occasionally, a bit of groping.
"Well aren't you honest." Rosa Linda knew there was something odd, turns out Lin Feng caused mischief midway, "Oh well, since I don't remember, let's just pretend it never happened."
??!
Had he known, Lin Feng would certainly have gone further.
"If I were more careful, you wouldn't have had the chance. It's my fault, my fault." Rosa Linda leaned against the cave wall to get up, but wobbled unsteadily.
"Don't force yourself if you can't stand firm, don't knock yourself silly." Lin Feng looked at her worriedly.
Rosa Linda gently exhaled, twisting left and right to warm up.
"It's not that bad...come here a moment." She curled a finger at Lin Feng.
"What for?"
"Just come over, I won't hurt you."
Lin Feng had barely stepped close before Rosa Linda grabbed his face, followed swiftly by a deep kiss.
"Mmm..."
Ardent yet gentle, the two like long parted lovers, rummaging hungrily in each other's mouths before finally pulling back after some time.
Lin Feng still hadn't regained his senses: "What's this all of a sudden? Weren't you quite modest before?"
Rosa Linda licked her wet lips, still not satisfied: "Just a spur of the moment, forget about earlier."
"Say one thing but mean another, you've already decided in your heart right?" Lin Feng lightly flicked up her chin with a finger.
Rosa Linda stared firmly, without resistance.
That kiss made Lin Feng unable to resist wanting to taste her.
A mature woman...heehee...
"Yes, I've decided." Without hesitation, Rosa Linda nodded.
"Then later, shall we..."
Lin Feng's brows danced suggestively as he madly implied.
"Let's head back and talk it over first, I can't just take someone else's belongings without a word."
Belongings?
Damn, feels objectified as a man.
Isn't this woman's objectification?
Oh well, can still enjoy it, doesn't matter.
.
With enough magic crystal stone collected, Lin Feng started on his way back.
Intimate interactions with Rosa Linda much increased along the way.
Snuggling and hugging were commonplace, occasional naughty jokes too.
Returning to the dwarf settlement, almost a week had passed.
Recognizing two familiar heads peering from the inn window even from afar.
"Master!" Spotting Lin Feng, Yuna yelled hoarsely.
He instantly became the street center of attention from her shout.
The two of them jogged over and pounced into Lin Feng's arms.
"Didn't you say you'd be back in two to three days?" Emily fiercely bit Lin Feng.
Cornered bunnies really do bite after all.
"Master, we were so worried about you!" Yuna pouted, seeming somewhat angry now.
Indeed, he had promised to return in two to three days but ended up gone a whole week instead.
"It wasn't all my fault, Uncle Ruby tricked me. He said it was just a one day walk but I trekked three days before finding the place." Lin Feng felt apologetic as he gently stroked Yuna's tail.
After returning to the inn, Lin Feng first took a bath. Throughout, the two beast ear girls kept chattering away outside the door.
He was about ready to drag them in and give them a good lesson.
Seeing him berated by the two this whole time, Rosa Linda lightly sighed and voluntarily came out to help explain things for Lin Feng.
"Actually, it was my fault. I accidentally got injured mining so we were delayed two to three extra days."
Hearing this, the two beast ear girls quieted down.
They glanced at Rosa Linda in unison.
Women's sixth sense was always sharp. They guessed these past days, something must have happened between those two.
Yuna sniffed around Rosa Linda, promptly grasping the general idea.
Emily's nose wasn't so sharp and she wasn't skilled at reading expressions either, yet she still felt something off about the pair.
"You two, could it be...?"
Rosa Linda silently nodded, voluntarily addressing Emily: "I'd like to have a good talk with you."
What they were going to talk about, the two of them knew clearly in their hearts.
After a while, Lin Feng finished his bath but still didn't see the women emerge from the next room for some time.
He could only hug Yuna, flicking her tail over and over.
"Master...be a bit gentler, it really hurts." Yuna twisted left and right like a worm.
"Hehe, I flick your tail every day. These past few days without me, must have been pretty unaccustomed right?" Lin Feng sharply flicked once more, eliciting shocked cries.
He had probed clear practically all her weak points.
Yuna nodded in acknowledgement: "It was a bit weird, Master your tail flicking technique is quite comforting."
Lin Feng waited a while longer before the two bunnies finally exited the room.
Expressionless faces, unclear on specifics of their discussion.
Rosa Linda directly went to bathe while Emily walked up to Lin Feng, ceaselessly hinting with her eyes.
"What's up? Got eye cramps?"
"Tsk, you're just pretending to play dumb but you understand what I mean right?" Emily hugged Lin Feng's arm, pulling to one side, "Hurry up and come, I've been pent up for ages."
Good chance to ask her stance on things too.
