Chapter 358, Principles

"...Actually, I don't hate Zhuo touching me. I like it and I long for it. But I don't want to actively do these things. Does Zhuo think I'm contradictory?"

"……do not think so."

Zhuo could vaguely understand what Ling wanted to express.

If Zhuo wanted to do something, Ling would definitely accept it. However, she was not actively looking forward to the union for this purpose, but just wanted to taste the other person's body temperature and touch in physical contact.

Zhuo certainly also had this desire, but just by this kind of contact, this desire was fully satisfied.

Zhuo had heard two different versions of this saying in the past: "People who really like you will definitely want to sleep with you" and "Higher emotions can dissolve lower emotions." In fact, they are not completely different, and Zhuo can't explain it clearly.

In short, as far as Zhuo was concerned, spending some peaceful time with Ling had made him feel unexpectedly happy. As for other desires, they were naturally forgotten.

"...Actually, I'm the same. I don't want to do anything actively. Just hugging like this is enough."

"Really?"

Zero twisted his body as if questioning, and after sensing the existence of something, his body froze. His tone was a little stiff and a little firm, "...It's unbelievable."

"Ah - it can't be helped. Zero would be the one who would be distressed if he had nothing."

"Too."

"…Yeah, but I still want a kiss."

It's fine to keep the status quo, since it's what Zhuo's rational side wants anyway. But the status quo is already half dead, so a kiss is still permissible.

When he heard the word "kiss", Zero tensed up subtly.

subtle.

"…Can't we do it now?"

"In no mood?"

"It's not that I don't want to... I feel that Zhuo is very unreliable now. You said it yourself, a boy's promise and control at this time are not trustworthy."

Then, he heard Ling muttering, "Has Zhuo been kissing for a long time recently?" Zhuo thought to himself, "Is it that long?" He recalled the past and fell into deep thought. At this time, Ling patted Zhuo's arm.

"...Okay, let's talk after we finish washing."

"Yes, sir! Today we must be as affectionate as others say!"

"Rather than saying that, it's better to say that Zhuo wants to see me make a fool of myself."

Hearing Ling's complaint in a slightly tough tone, Zhuo smiled and said, "No way, how is that possible? Impossible, impossible, impossible..." Then his arm was lightly twisted by Ling, who turned around and glanced at him resentfully.

Compared to the time when I pinched her waist, this was really very light.

However, Zero's posture and tone did not show real anger, but rather helpless resignation. So Zhuo smiled secretly without letting Zero notice, and hugged Zero again.

……

There are many things in the world that we don’t care about, but they are very important. For example, sleeping in a very cold place will make you unable to wake up; or being intimate in a hot place such as a hot spring or sauna room...

After chatting for a while, both of them enjoyed the silent contact time with each other. Because they cared too much about the feeling of skin contact, the result was. "Zhuo, we have to go out. I feel dizzy."

After hearing what Ling said, Zhuo came back to his senses and tried to move himself around while immersed in Ling's body. However, the refreshing feeling of the hot spring that had relaxed his meridians and invigorated his bones was no longer there. Instead, he felt extremely tired, as if he had just run 3,000 meters.

"I soaked in the water for too long. I'm so tired."

"Ah."

The originally relaxing hot spring caused Zhuo's muscles to soften, and it took him a long time to climb out of the pool. Before this, Zhuo thought that even if he soaked his head, he would at most feel dizzy the moment he stood up, and he would recover quickly - this time he suffered for this.

What Zhuo didn't expect was that Ling, who he thought had stronger physical fitness, didn't seem to be in much better condition than her. To be more precise, it might be even worse. He had reached the point where he needed Zhuo's support to stand out of the pool. It seemed that what Ling said about "the heartbeat was always fast" was confirmed here. Because it is because the heart beats faster that the body temperature will be higher.

The cobblestone road surface that was originally used to stimulate footsteps has now become the nemesis of soft muscles. Zhuo felt his legs trembling after taking a few steps, and Ling fell to the side of the road without a word.

"Zero, are you okay?"

"…………fine."

Unlike the usual pauses, this time Zero looked down at his feet and it took him a few seconds before he blurted out this sentence, obviously lacking confidence.

Although Zhuo couldn't see any expression on her face, he felt worried knowing that this girl would keep a poker face even if the sky fell and the earth cracked and her joints were shattered.

'Great sage.'

[Answer: Change the muscle momentum in the body... changing... change completed... stimulate muscle recovery... stimulate... muscle recovery completed... change bioelectric current signals, release hormones in the body... changing... change completed.]

The mind that should have been exhausted and depressed suddenly became clear, or rather, it had never been so clear before. Zhuo's original principle was not to rely on great sages and abilities, but to live in his own way... Now there are things more important than principles, so Zhuo will naturally break the principles.

Although he knew that Ling would be fine, Zhuo didn't care about anything else and had to go to a cool place first. He reached out and grabbed Ling's legs, and when Ling suddenly raised her head and widened her eyes, still a little dazed, he picked her up like a princess.

[Answer: Changing the direction of part of the gravity...Changing...Change completed.]

To be honest, there are some things that humans don't take into account, such as the stimulation to the feet will become stronger after picking up a person. Zhuo didn't consider this at all.

This time his feet felt much lighter. He quickly returned to the bedroom and was about to put Ling on the relaxing water bed when he heard something.

"Don't get on the bed, go to the bathroom, if you wet the bed you won't be able to get through the night."

"Oh, oh oh."

See, just like this, this is something that Zhuo had not considered, so Zhuo could only respond even more stupidly - as everyone knows, Zero is not completely human.

Zhuo slammed the brakes, then turned around and ran to the bathroom. The bathroom was not big, so Zhuo could only place Ling on the toilet and handed her a bath towel.

"Go out and get my pajamas first, I'll wipe them myself."

"Huh? Oh, good."

Ling's tone and thoughts were very clear, which made Zhuo reaffirm the fact that she would be fine. So Zhuo heaved a sigh of relief and went back to the bedroom to search through the suitcases they brought.

Once again, there are some things that humans cannot take into account, such as the present.

Zhuo completely forgot to search the small backpack for change, and the end result was that he naturally did not find his pajamas.
