"Thanks again, senior brother." Xi Xue grinned, he went back to his usual self as if he was never cold and angry in the first place.

Seeing this rapid change, Bng Huo's lips twitched. "Your mood changes so fast." She signed. "You were angry at me before and now- "

"No, I'm not angry," Xi Xue refuted. "You misunderstood me." The little vampire averted his eyes and pretended to be innocent.

'Was I so obvious when I felt irked before?'

"Aish, whatever." Bng Huo suddenly sat down next to the guy and took back her outer clothes she lent to Xi Xue. "We will walk again after you feel better, " she added.

"I" Xi Xue was about to say that he was alright but then he paused. An idea came into mind.

"Senior brother." Xi Xue suddenly looked at Bng Huo with teary eyes, looking pitiful. The guy hugged his arm tight and shivered.

"I suddenly feel cold...so cold" he whispered weakly while slowly leaning to the girl's shoulder.

His face turned pale but that was because he controlled his blood so no blood rushed to his face area.

Seeing this, Bng Huo panicked. "Is it because of the pills? But you should feel warm" Bng Huo grabbed Xi Xue's face and touched his forehead with the back of her palm.

! So cold!

All colour left Bng Huo's face. The girl looked at Xi Xue who was shivering like a poor little poodle.

"Ugh- what do you need? Fire pill or" Bng Huo started to find pills among her collection she put inside her storage ring but then Xi Xue weakly tugged her sleeve.

"Hug" The man looked at Bng Huo with teary eyes. Steam flowed out his mouth as he spoke. He really looked weak.

"Hug?" The girl abruptly paused.

"Mn. Hug. Warm." Xi Xue snuggled to the girl and just casually wrapped his hands around her waist.

!

"Hey, you- "

"I can't?" Xi Xue lowered his head and slowly backed off. He then shrunk at the corner while stealing a fearful glance at Bng Huo.

This sight sent an arrow to the girl's heart.

"Ughhhh." Bng Huo clutched her arm and sighed. "Why you suddenly become so childish? Is it because you are sick- "

"Cold" Xi Xue shook his head. "So cold." he kept repeating these two words, alarming Bng Huo.

'The pills might not be effective to warm him up!'

Thinking like this, she hurriedly went to Xi Xue place and sat right next to him. "Okay, okay, what do you want? How do I warm you up?"

'Maybe I should start a fire camp'

"Hug." Xi Xue blinked innocently. No one saw his little smirk as he hugged Bng Huo, dragging her to sit in front of him.

!

"Hey, this" Bng Huo felt her face turned hot. Her whole body was in Xi Xue's embrace as the guy hugged her waist and pulled her closer to him.

Her back was touching his chest. His hot breath hit the back of her neck.

"How will you feel warm if you hug me like this??" Bng Huo tried to push the guy away but his legs were crossed, trapping her in his arm.

"Mn...turn around?" Xi Xue whispered in a low, hoarse voice straight to the girl's ear.

"Wah!" Bng Huo flinched. She tried to get away but Xi Xue easily turned her around and circled her waist again.

"Hug. Warm." The guy was now facing Bng Huo face-to-face. He shamelessly clung to the girl's neck using his other hand and buried his face to her neck.

!

Bng Huo felt her heart just exploded.

'Too close! And why are you touching me so casually?? This is abnormal!!'

"Wait, wait, this isn't normal- "

"I feel like dying" Xi Xue shuddered. He hugged Bng Huo tighter and a groan slipped his mouth.

"A-ah. Ahhh" He groaned in a low, magnetic voice instantly sent a shiver down the girl's spine.

"What are you doing?? Don't make out weird noises ah!" Bng Huo slapped the back of Xi Xue's head but then seeing the guy kept shivering, her heart slowly melt.

"...okay I'll hug you, I will." The girl inhaled and slowly circled her arms around Xi Xue's back. She then patted his back, coaxing him like a little kid.

"Mn. Warm" Xi Xue rubbed his cheek to Bng Huo's head and hugged her tighter. He slowly inhaled her scent and snickered.

'She is so naive and dumb.' Xi Xue licked his lips. 'Or just too kind. How could she fall for my scheme? Will she do this if her male friends in this situation?'

The thought of Bng Huo hugging another guy made his blood boiled.

"Senior brother." Xi Xue brought his face closer to Bng Huo's neck area. "I feel warm."

'And I want to suck your blood. Caress your skin. Make you cry my name.' Xi Xue slurped. His eyes turned red without the girl knowing.

The prey didn't even know she fell right to her hunter's hand.

"You feel warm already? Should I stop then?" Bng Huo patted Xi Xue's back and slowly ran her fingers around his hair. The girl gently caressed the guy's hair and patted him with care.

Xi Xue's body stiffened. Warmth surged in and the feeling of having someone played with his hair just tickled his heart.

He felt a bittersweet feeling as if a cat just slowly clawed his heart.

'I...what is this? Why do I feel so happy?' Xi Xue closed his eyes and shook his head, refusing to let go.

"No. I am still cold. Don't leave me."
