Chapter 778: Chapter 778 Handso Man Sche_1

Qin Sisi did not notice Kong Jiu’s expression. After she ticulously helped Kong Jiu to defrost his hand, she suddenly thought of sothing else.

"You didn’t eat any fish, did you?" Qin Sisi looked at Kong Jiu, her gaze turned wary.

Kong Jiu smiled awkwardly and replied: "Well... I’m not hungry."

Qin Sisi didn’t say anything, but her face clearly displayed disbelief.

He had assured her with fervor that the Blue Blood Ice Fish was safe to eat. He had even caught fish himself to encourage her to eat a lot. Yet, he hadn’t tasted it himself. Anyone could see sothing was off.

Kong Jiu started to feel pressured under Qin Sisi’s watchful gaze. He sighed and said, "Nevermind, actually, I just don’t like eating fish. But since you don’t trust , I’ll just have one with you."

Having said that, Kong Jiu went back to the river, swiftly caught another fish, and popped it into his mouth without hesitation. His cheeks bulged roundly, and he quickly swallowed a Blue Blood Ice Fish.

After finishing eating, Kong Jiu walked over to Qin Sisi and asked, "Do you believe

now?"

Qin Sisi didn’t know whether she should trust him or not, so she remained silent and simply turned and continued to walk along the river.

Kong Jiu trailed behind Qin Sisi, a helpless wry smile spreading on his lips. Having eaten a precious creature like the Blue Blood Ice Fish, he would surely be held accountable later. When that ti ca, they would have to bear the consequences together.

It was strange, though. The Blue Blood Ice Fish felt like an ice cube when eaten. Qin Sisi had initially feared that eating it would make her colder.

But after eating several, not only did she not feel colder, she even found the chill of the cave less unbearable than before.

Qin Sisi was slightly puzzled. Was it because she had a full belly? Or had the temperature in the cave risen? Or was it the special spiritual power of the Blue Blood Ice Fish that had given her strong cold resistance?

As Qin Sisi was pondering, Kong Jiu caught up with her and concernedly asked, "Hey, beautiful senior sister, are you cold?"

Qin Sisi shot him a glance and answered indifferently, "A bit."

That comnt seed to embolden Kong Jiu as his arm stealthily snaked around Qin Sisi, moving slowly towards her shoulder. His voice beca more suggestive: "Then let

warm you up."

Just as Kong Jiu’s hand was about to touch Qin Sisi’s shoulder, she slapped it away.

Qin Sisi hastily stepped back two steps and, watching Kong Jiu warily, rebuked sternly, "What do you think you’re doing?"

Kong Jiu quickly coughed twice and hurriedly explained, "Nothing, nothing. I’m just concerned about you. Look at you, so thin and frail. With the cave being so cold, I’m afraid you’ll freeze."

"Stay away from ." Qin Sisi glared fiercely at Kong Jiu and strode quickly forward.

Kong Jiu followed with a sheepish expression. After a while, stubbornly he asked, "So... are you really not cold? I can lend you my jacket. Really, a man taking care of a woman is obligatory."

As he spoke, Kong Jiu began to unbutton his coat.

"Stop!" Seeing this, Qin Sisi quickly commanded, a bit unnaturally, "Put your coat on. I don’t need it."

As Qin Sisi turned, Kong Jiu caught a glimpse of her slightly blushing cheeks.

Kong Jiu chuckled inwardly, a greenhorn like her certainly couldn’t get away from him.

Ignoring Qin Sisi’s words, he completed unbuttoning his coat, took it off, and swiftly caught up with her. He draped the big, red coat over her and gently said, "Put it on quickly. Look at you, your face is turning red from the cold."

"You..." Qin Sisi spun around to retort harshly at Kong Jiu, but as she took in his appearance, she fell silent.

She knew the n of the Demon Sacred Realm would normally wear a shirt under their coats. Kong Jiu, however, was not wearing one. Once he took off his coat, his upper body was bare.

He appeared thin in clothes, but once stripped, his physique was exceptionally robust. Initially, Qin Sisi thought him sowhat effeminate, but now she realized she had mistaken. Kong Jiu’s tightly packed muscles made him look more gallant and formidable.

At this mont, Kong Jiu was looking at her gently with his head slightly lowered, a slight smile playing on his lips. His eyes, deep yet swirling with seductive allure, engulfed her.

A chill ran down Qin Sisi’s back. She had an inexplicable feeling of danger. Since Ye You’s curse had been lifted, they had been living together for half a month, and he had never exposed himself before her.

Qin Sisi took a step back, intending to take off Kong Jiu’s coat to return it to him, but her fingers paused as they touched the fabric.

She realized that it was a temperature-regulating coat - its texture soft, smooth, and delicate. It was quite familiar to Qin Sisi.

Ye You had given her a black windbreaker in the Human World, which felt exactly the sa. It was a pity it had been burned to ashes during the battle with the Moon Spirit Golden Peacock.

Qin Sisi rembered Ye You saying that the windbreaker was made from silk produced by a spider called the Icefield Black Rose and was extrely expensive.

So how could Kong Jiu, an average student of the Earth Academy, afford a coat made from the sa material as that of Ye You?

Seeing Qin Sisi staring at him without blinking, Kong Jiu thought his womanizing plan was working.

He stepped forward, standing right in front of Qin Sisi. His watery, peach blossom-like eyes stared at Qin Sisi’s. His voice was low, seductive, "Do you feel warr? I just realized, although you aren’t particularly beautiful, your eyes are several tis more captivating than those of any woman I’ve ever t."

Kong Jiu, while speaking, slowly lifted his hand, his slender fingers seemingly ready to touch Qin Sisi’s shiny, luminous eyes.

But at that mont, Qin Sisi’s palms were already gathering magic power, ready to release a teors Rain of Fire.

Just then, a huge wave suddenly rolled up in the nearby river. The freezing water splashed out with a loud "splash". Qin Sisi and Kong Jiu, unable to dodge in ti, were soaked by the river water.

Fortunately, Qin Sisi was wearing Kong Jiu’s red coat which was water-resistant. Only her hair was drenched. She quickly gathered Fire Attribute Magic Power towards her head to keep herself warm.

At the sa ti, she noticed that Kong Jiu had trembled slightly when the icy river water splashed on him. However, he quickly returned to normal, with wisps of white smoke emanating from his bare skin, evaporating all the water with Fire magic.

Qin Sisi was secretly surprised. Her hair was still wet, and the cold air in the cave made her scalp feel chilly.

On the other hand, Kong Jiu was completely free of any water drops and his pants were dry again. This showed that Kong Jiu’s magic power was significantly stronger than hers. Even with Fire Attribute Magic, which she was most proficient in, there was still a significant gap compared to Kong Jiu.
