Accidentally Married a Fox God - Chapter 218
Li Meirong kept her lips pressed together and her eyes narrowed down with suspicion as she assessed the girl in front of her. She wasn’t really sure as to what was now brewing in the strange girl’s mind, the more she thought about the meaning behind Xiong Mei’s choice of words, the more confused she became by her. She had already acquired a migraine due to one certain silver-haired individual, and she definitely didn’t need Xiong Mei to give her another headache.
She sighed and tried to manoeuvre herself out of this awkward encounter with a polite approach, “Xiong Mei, I don’t want to fight with you. You were nice to me before and I appreciate your help, so let’s separate under good terms.”
“I don’t want to separate. If what you say is true and my spirit beast had wronged you, I will seek justice on your behalf.” Xiong Mei announced, and it felt as though her words were as strong as a vow.
During that moment, they stood there in silence for a few seconds longer, each with their own ideas, trying to read the thoughts of the other person.
Li Meirong looked aside as she busied herself by contemplating how to respond to the girl’s declaration without triggering her into anger, purposefully avoiding Xiong Mei’s penetrating stare. The only noises that were now heard were of the birds chirping in the distance, and the soft tinkling sound of the waves crashing upon the sand.
A few moments later, Li Meirong felt the touch of a warm hand upon her skin as she was forcibly pushed forward to Xiong Mei’s direction.
“What are you-”
Xiong Mei bent down with one fast movement and grasped Li Meirong by the back of her neck. Without providing the latter with even the slightest opportunity to escape, she tilted her head and plastered her lips upon Li Meirong’s, silencing the girl from speaking any further.
“…” Li Meirong’s eyes had rounded like a pair of saucers, she became shocked into speechlessness! Except for the soft feeling of smooth lips pressing against her own, she wasn’t able to comprehend what was actually happening. She felt no better than a machine that had short-circuited!
Of all the things that Li Meirong had been speculating, getting kissed was the last thing on her mind, and by a girl, no less!
However, before she had a chance to soundly slap the audacious girl, Xiong Mei had somehow managed to mysteriously rise several feet above the ground in the blink of an eye, grinning from ear to ear like a content cat who had just licked the finest cream.
“Mmhm. I knew you’d taste sweet!” Xiong Mei said, tracing her own lips with one long finger and playfully taunting the fuming beauty who stood upon the ground.
She twirled around while levitating in the air. Her dark hair spilled down across her partly concealed shoulders and contrasted with her loose, white silken dress that sparkled under the sunlight as she danced. The golden bracelets and anklets decorating her long, tanned arms and legs rattled with the sound of the silver bells which was attached to them.
“Y-you! Just what do you think you’re doing?!”
After a short length of time had passed in which Li Meirong regained her rationality, she venomously spat out the words and furiously rubbed her lips with the back of her hand, still flabbergasted by the smooching she had just received.
From above, the aqua-eyed girl’s expression reverted to her commonly seen smirk, “You are too sweet a temptation to give up on. Li Meirong, I’ll be back for you after I settle my issues with Tiny. Don’t miss me too much!”
Li Meirong gnashed her teeth with rage, flailing both her fists in the air, “You insane girl! Who is going to miss you? Don’t come back, you hear me?!”
Xiong Mei chuckled, seemingly all too happy with the response she received, she pointedly chose to ignore Li Meirong’s remarks and answered, “Oh, and sweety, stay clear of Zhu Qingyue, he is not who you think he is.”
