Coaxing the Little Sickly Sweetheart

The morning sun on the island was perfect, casting a warm glow on the skin.

The sea breeze carried a faint saltiness.

Fang Qi... was currently sprawled out on a beach chair.

He looked at the sparkling sea in the distance, appearing relaxed on the surface...

But his mind was a complete mess!

He lowered his head slightly to look.

In his arms right now... lay a soft, delicate body.

The silver-haired girl was wearing a cream-white two-piece swimsuit, revealing her slender, fair waist and long, straight legs.

Her silver hair draped loosely over her shoulders, with a few strands scattering across his chest in the sea breeze.

She was hugging him very tightly!

Her entire body was practically embedded into his embrace!

Fang Qi knew... this little yandere was still sulking.

Since the morning, Liguang had entered this "obedient but awkward" state.

She submissively made breakfast, submissively cleaned the house, and submissively changed into her swimsuit to accompany him to the beach...

But she just wouldn't look at him, nor would she initiate a conversation!

"...Liguang."

Fang Qi spoke up somewhat cautiously.

The person in his arms moved slightly, her silver hair brushing against his chin, but she didn't say a word.

"This afternoon, An Lian and Lin Xiaoyou will be arriving."

Fang Qi paused. "What do you think?"

Liguang's face was still buried in his chest, her voice muffled:

"Whoever Master invites, Liguang will always welcome them."

She spoke very appropriately, but the arms wrapped around his waist...

...visibly tightened a fraction!

...Saying one thing but meaning another!

But she didn't throw a fit!

This crazy girl... was still feeling uneasy about the tea-pouring incident.

That subconscious impulse... left her feeling both terrified and aggrieved!

Even she herself didn't understand why she would do such a thing!

Therefore, instead of instantly turning dark like before, and not daring to act spoiled or vent her anger, she could only...

...sulk with him in this manner!

Like a curled-up, sulking little cat!

...So cute!

Fang Qi couldn't help but reach out and vigorously rub her fluffy head!

Having her head pet, the silver-haired girl subconsciously wanted to nuzzle against him!

But it seemed she suddenly remembered she was supposed to be sulking, so she only nuzzled once...

...before burying her little head back down!

The corners of Fang Qi's mouth were harder to suppress than the recoil of an AK!

...He couldn't take it!

He really couldn't take it!

How could his wife be this adorable even when she was sulking!

But... he was the one who upset his wife, so he had to be the one to coax her!

"Liguang, when they arrive this afternoon..."

He softened his voice, stroking her smooth silver hair:

"I'll tell them that I will only ever love Liguang alone, how does that sound?"

The delicate body in his arms trembled slightly, and the hands holding him tightened.

But she still didn't look up, merely nodding slightly, the little star earring on her earlobe swaying gently with the movement.

...She didn't even utter a single "Mm"!

Fang Qi touched his nose.

This crazy girl...

In the past, she would either turn dark or be easily coaxed...

This time, her temper was quite stubborn!

I refuse to believe I can't coax a little yandere like you!

"Well..."

Fang Qi cleared his throat, his tone softening even further:

"Regarding what happened this morning, it was indeed my fault for not thinking things through."

Liguang's eyelashes fluttered slightly.

"So..."

Fang Qi continued, his tone laced with persuasion:

"As compensation, I can... grant you one wish!"

"Anything at all!"

The moment his words fell—

The person in his arms, as expected, suddenly snapped her head up!

Those beautiful heterochromatic eyes stared straight at him!

Her amber left eye was still clouded with a layer of mist, but her crimson right eye was already dancing with sparks of joy!

"Anything... at all?"

Her voice was very soft, carrying a cautious tone of probing.

"Of course!"

Fang Qi put on a righteous expression and patted her smooth back:

"Your Master here is a man of his word! Absolutely anything!"

Liguang blinked softly, her eyelashes trembling slightly.

Then she suddenly leaned in—

"Mwah."

Soft, slightly cool lips landed on his cheek!

Fang Qi raised an eyebrow, inhaling the sweet strawberry scent that was so close at hand.

She kissed me?

Good, good, good!

As expected, as long as this crazy girl didn't turn dark...

She was still very easy to coax!

He cooperatively closed his eyes, enjoying the sweetness his wife had taken the initiative to offer.

Then, the very next second...

A sharp, piercing pain came from his cheek!

"Hiss—!!!"

He snapped his eyes open!

...It hurt!

"Ow, ow, ow!!!"

That wasn't a kiss...

It was a bite!!

This crazy girl actually used her teeth...

To take a solid bite out of his face!!!

"Liguang, you—!"

Before he could finish his sentence, the silver-haired girl had quickly let go!

Like a little cat that had successfully stolen a treat, she swiftly shrank back into his arms and buried her face in his chest once more!

Fang Qi stiffly raised his hand, touching his stinging cheek...

It was wet, and a little sticky.

...It hurt!!

The spot his fingertips touched... was noticeably indented in a circle!

He didn't even need to look to know there was a clear set of teeth marks there!

Moreover...

The skin was broken and bleeding!

"You..."

Fang Qi looked down at the fluffy silver head in his arms, unable to stop himself from raising his hand...

And pinching her smooth, tender cheek hard!

"Are you a dog or something?!"

The silver-haired girl didn't speak, only burying her face deeper.

But Fang Qi could feel it... she was laughing!

An uncontrollable, secret delight!

That delicate body was still trembling slightly in his arms!

This crazy girl...

She was marking him!

Leaving her exclusive mark in a place like his face, declaring, "Master is mine, no one is allowed to touch him"!

Fang Qi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but ultimately...

He resigned himself to his fate and slumped back into the lounge chair.

...Let her bite!

It was just a bite from his own wife, it didn't matter!

Even though the location on his face was a bit weird.

This afternoon... he was going to have to meet An Lian and Lin Xiaoyou sporting teeth marks on his face!

Well...

Let them look!

There was nothing shameful about a mark left by his own wife!

He continued to hold Liguang, feeling the soft, warm touch in his embrace.

As the sea breeze blew past, he began to feel a bit nervous again.

Sigh...!

An Lian and Lin Xiaoyou would be arriving this afternoon...

But even now, he had absolutely no idea how to break this situation!

He had originally lured the two girls here purely to court death and trigger a reset!

But now... a new save point had already been established on this island!

He was completely soft-locked!

The next reset would still be on this very island!

It would be this morning!

It was so frustrating!!

He just wanted to slack off with Liguang and live in their own two-person world on the island!

Why, why was even such a simple wish so hard to achieve!

However...

It didn't matter anymore.

Since he couldn't slack off on this island with Liguang until they grew old, then he...

Would settle for the next best thing!

As long as he could be with Liguang, he would be satisfied!

Anyway... regardless of whether Liguang turned dark or not, regardless of whether he reset or not...

Liguang would always be by his side, keeping him company!

That... was enough!

Whatever the results of An Lian's testing would be, however Lin Xiaoyou would court death...

It no longer had much meaning to him.

His current mindset was still to let nature take its course.

Continue to slack off!

If Liguang could pass An Lian's test, and Lin Xiaoyou just took a stroll and left...

Then they would just continue living on the island, enjoying every day as it comes!

If they couldn't pass it...

It didn't matter!

Could An Lian and Lin Xiaoyou, two ordinary people, really hurt Liguang on this isolated island?

Once Liguang's dark side took over... maybe they could even enter an ending without a time loop!

Then, he could continue living happily with Liguang!

Wasn't that just perfect?

A dead end? Need to break the loop?

He didn't even want to achieve "Eternal True Love," so what was there to break?

Whoever wants to break it can break it! I'm not doing it!

I just want to stay lovey-dovey with my wife forever!

So...

No need to panic!

Everything was still under his control!

As for An Lian and Lin Xiaoyou...

Fang Qi pursed his lips.

He felt that the ones in danger right now weren't him, but those two!

They were in actual danger!

If Liguang turned dark, wouldn't she just tie them up and throw them into the sea to feed the sharks...

Hiss—!

No, no, no!

An Lian was just an employee, and a very dedicated one at that!

And Lin Xiaoyou...

Although that girl was a bit clingy, she genuinely cared about him!

Even if he didn't accept her, he couldn't just let her get killed, right?

Tsk tsk...

He suddenly realized that his next goal...

Was actually to keep An Lian and Lin Xiaoyou alive?

Especially Lin Xiaoyou!

That crazy girl really knew how to court death in various ways!

Hmm...

He suddenly had an idea!

He looked down at the silver-haired girl still secretly smiling in his arms.

This crazy woman was still gently licking her red lips, her gaze a bit dazed, her amber eyes misty.

Obviously, she was still savoring the taste from earlier!

Fang Qi coughed lightly. Liguang?

Hmm?

Liguang trembled slightly, quickly stopping her lip-licking, and gave a soft Hmm.

When Lin Xiaoyou comes this afternoon...

Fang Qi hugged her a bit tighter, feeling her slender waist.

If she tries to get close to me, or wants to hug me...

He paused, feeling the delicate body in his arms instantly tense up.

You can step in and stop her!

Fang Qi continued, his tone serious.

You don't have to hold back, and you don't have to be so obedient. I allow you... to be jealous, like a real partner!

Exactly. In the past, Lin Xiaoyou's various death-courting antics only happened because Liguang had to stand by and endure it, until she couldn't take it anymore and completely exploded.

Now, she didn't have to hold back!

Hearing this, Liguang suddenly raised her head, her phoenix eyes wide open!

Her amber left eye was filled with disbelief, while her crimson eye exploded like brilliant fireworks!

R-Really, Master?!

Her voice instantly rose a pitch, carrying uncontrollable ecstasy.

Liguang... Liguang really can... can be jealous?!

Of course it's true!

Fang Qi nodded, pretending to be casual.

You are my partner. How could you not get jealous!

You should be jealous when appropriate. That way... it's much more authentic!

Liguang's face rapidly flushed red at a visible speed!

It was as if she was instantly lit up, the corners of her mouth uncontrollably...

Slowly stretching into an exaggerated, sickly sweet curve!

Her phoenix eyes curved into crescents once again!

Master!!!

She cheered, her arms tightly wrapping around his neck!

She practically hung onto him!

Liguang is so happy!

So happy, so happy, so happy!!!

She shouted while rubbing her cheek vigorously against his!

And then...

She happened to rub right against the tooth mark that was still faintly aching!

Hiss—!

Fang Qi gasped, covering his face.

Ow, ow, ow... don't...!

Liguang's movements paused.

She let go, backed away slightly, and looked at the clear, bloody tooth mark on his cheek.

Her eyes immediately filled with remorse and heartache!

Master, I'm sorry...

She said softly, her voice sweet and tender.

Then she leaned in, sticking out her pink tongue, and carefully licked the tooth mark.

The slightly cool sensation mixed with a faint, electrifying tingle made Fang Qi stiffen all over.

Liguang knows she was wrong...

She mumbled indistinctly while licking.

Liguang will accept any punishment from Master, whatever it is...

Fang Qi...

Hiss—!

...That's enough, that's enough, it doesn't hurt anymore!!

He quickly pulled Liguang back into his arms.

If he let her keep licking, he was afraid he...

Wouldn't be able to stop himself from doing something right then and there!

Did this crazy woman know just how incredibly seductive...

She looked in her swimsuit right now!

He couldn't handle it!

He really couldn't handle it!

But speaking of which, since he had completely given up on trying so hard...

Was it time to take things a step further with this crazy woman?

Before, he had always been afraid of Eternal Slumber and didn't dare to do it, but now...

Did he not need to be afraid anymore?

Hiss—!

Meanwhile, Liguang had obediently nestled back against his chest.

She adjusted her posture to press against him more comfortably, even letting out a contented sigh like a small animal.

The sun was warm, the sea breeze was gentle, and the body in his arms was soft and real.

Never mind.

There was still plenty of time!

Fang Qi narrowed his eyes, feeling the warm, soft weight in his arms and the faint tingling ache on his cheek.

He didn't know what would happen in the afternoon.

But he knew—

No matter what happened, he would face it together with the crazy woman in his arms!

After all, no matter how many times time looped, no matter how many times she lost her memory...

She would always be by his side!
