Chapter 1247 When The Lord is Angry

When Zhao Li Xin entered the house Lory had just come down the stairs while wiping her hair with a towel, she looked very relaxed with an oversized long-sleeve t-shirt and lounge pants.

[Li Xin, I've been looking for you?] Lory's face automatically lit up when she found Zhao Li Xin.

[I just get some fresh air outside] A warm smile spread across his usually gloomy face. Lory didn't think anything was wrong, and Zhao Li Xin didn't explain further either. He took the towel from Lory's hands and then sat her on a chair after that he began to help Lory dry her hair with a towel using the heat that coming from his hands.

Lory closed her eyes while enjoying his care, she liked it more when Zhao Li Xin dried her hair than using a hair dryer which only made her hair feel dry and frizzy. [Oh, I forgot to ask what you did with that stupid guy?] Lory lifts her head.

[Huh?] Zhao Li Xin's face went blank.

[You forgot already?] Lory sighs, he can remember everything in a glance but it only took one day for him to forget about that poor basta*d, [Don't you remember? a muscular posture, tall, blonde, stupid face, hot-headed...come on!] Lory reminds him.

[...] Zhao Li Xin's face shows he had no recollection whatsoever.

[He wanted to attack me and you almost killed him!] Lory helplessly said.

[Ooohh...] Zhao Li Xin finally remembers. In his defense he's not the type to be considered insignificant, he's got Mong Ki and Mong Yi in charge of that.

Lory almost feels sorry for Liam, [Yes, you haven't told me what you've done to him? I feel his mana almost empty out, he would have fallen into a coma if I had not healed him, did you absorb his mana?] she whispered the last word as if worried someone would hear them.

[Yes] he answers briefly without care.

Lory turned her around with her jaw dropped, Zhao Li Xin kindly closed her jaw while saying: [Don't open your mouth too wide]

Lory didn't care, she looked at him with widened eyes [So it's true you can absorb other people's mana! why did I never know about this before?] Lory struggles to hold her voice from shouting. Fịndd new updates at novelhall.com

[I just found out too] Zhao Li Xin replied nonchalantly while gently turning Lory's head to its original position and then continued drying Lory's hair as if nothing had happened.

[If he was smart he would learn, though I doubt it...] Lory shrugged, it's not his problem anyway.

[Come on sit right here!] She patted the chair next to her.

Once Zhao Li Xin took a seat Lory asked again [So, your flame did not react when you touch me?] She felt rather disappointed.

Zhao Li Xin didn't understand why he felt disappointed, if that happened then the first time they met he could accidentally hurt her. If that happened he couldn't imagine how stressed and confused he would be after accidentally hurting his savior.

Zhao Li Xin shivered just thinking about it, but Lory didn't seem to take it seriously which annoyed her a lot. He poured mineral water into a glass and then drank it after that he looked at the clueless girl beside him [No, although there are other things in my body that react when I touch you...] he grinned mischievously.

Lory frowned, it took her a moment to understand what he meant immediately, she blushed [You're getting better at making dirty jokes] she huffed.

[Thank you] Zhao Li Xin smiles proudly.

[Is not a compliment!] Lory scoffed.

[Nevertheless, I'll take it as one] he bows his head courteously.

'What this, is he angry with me?' the veins on Lory's forehead popped.

[You just make an excuse cause you don't want to test it with me aren't you!] Lory pouted. Zhao Li Xin's eyes darkened suddenly a fire sparked within him that gradually grew into a wildfire, [If you insisted to test it let's go upstairs] he spoke casually but there was a dangerous glint in his eyes, unfortunately, Lory missed it.

[Really?!] The stupid girl thought she had succeeded in persuading her husband as usual.

Zhao Li Xin got up from the chair and walked to the stairs. [Let's test it] he beckoned with his index finger to sign her to follow.

[Wait Up!] Lory chased Zhao Li Xin to the second floor.

Lory's hope was simple, she thought that if she could give his mana to Zhao Li Xin, he would become stronger therefore it would be safer for him to enter the labyrinth, unfortunately, she didn't realize she had been scammed. There is a suitable proverb for this situation, that is 'One should learn never stroke a tiger's whiskers'
