Chapter 229 - Never Have I Ever
Just as the Heaven Immortal was about to become a puddle due to embarrassment, the room suddenly went quiet leaving him confused.
He was about to look up when his eyes landed on the little Snowy who was about to climb up on his lap.
He watched in pure surprise as the furball sat down comfortably in his lap while looking completely at ease.
His eyes immediately looked at his mate who was staring at her familiar with a dropped jaw.
"You can sit in that Demon's lap as long as you want. In the meanwhile, I will keep the mighty Heaven Lord entertained over here. No need to worry and make your wrinkles appear earlier than destined."
"..."
Li Ming stared at the little Pomeranian as he taunted her with no care in the world.
"Alright then!"
She replied haughtily as she gave the furball one of her famous death glares.
However, Snowy completely ignored her as he rubbed his face against Heaven Emperor's warm stomach.
"He even smells much better than you. Almost reminds me of a sunny day, of light and warmth." Snowy muttered as he inhaled the fragrance surrounding the Heaven Emperor.
The little furball was completely unaware of the fact that everyone in the room also heard his words, especially his master.
As Li Ming fisted her fingers tightly to control lashing out at the little brat, she found the Second Demon Prince tightening his arms around her.
She felt his breath on her nape before his soft words entered her ear.
"Don't listen to him. He's just teasing you knowing that the First and Second Brothers would probably save him from your anger. As for your fragrance, there's a reason why I call you my lilac girl. Don't forget that for the six of us, your fragrance is the most beautiful and sweet in this entire world. Nothing can change that."
Li Ming found her body relaxing but she did not let her expression changed much as she replied with a scoff, "You sure have a silver tongue."
A small smile appeared on Hei Long's lips as he replied, "I'm going to take that as a compliment."
She felt a soft kiss landing on her nape and all the words that were about to spill from her lips died immediately.
However, Snowy's next words almost made her kick the furball out of the room like a football.
"Please keep everything under PG-13. I'm a baby here."
Snowy was looking at her with raised eyebrows as if he was waiting for her to agree with his stupid demand.
"Why the fuck are you even here if you can't stand this situation?" Li Ming asked him with gritted teeth.
"Oh! It's not like I have any interest in wasting my time here. But unfortunately, I have been chosen as the one who will need to keep eyes on you so that you can't take advantage of these poor men." Snowy replied with a sigh.
"Wait, wait, wait! Let's not get violent, alright! Let's play the game that you were talking about at dinner."
Ruoshan was quick in stopping his little mate who was sure about to murder the furball.
The little Pomeranian sure had some guts to keep testing Li Ming's patience every now and then.
The Evernight Lord was not sure whether he should call the furball confident or foolish.
"Yes! We should start playing the game that you were talking about before."
It took the Immortals some precious time to calm down their mate and persuade her to start the game.
The game that Li Ming proposed in front of them was called 'Never Have I Ever'. The rules were pretty simple and clear.
It took them barely anytime in setting up wine bottles and glasses as they all bundled up to start the game that sounded so interesting.
"Alright! Since you all are playing this game for the very first time, I will start with the first round." Li Ming announced after they filled their glasses with wine.
The Immortals nodded their heads as they all agreed with her.
"So..."
Li Ming looked a little lost as she tried to come up with something interesting and barely after a few seconds her eyes were sparkling with mischief.
"...Never have I ever seen a man naked!"
She shouted and smirked as she eyed her mates who all looked flustered after hearing her sentence.
"Don't you think it's a little bit awkward to ask such questions? I mean..." The Heaven Emperor trailed off as he watched his mate looking at him with raised eyebrows.
"Come on, guys. Don't ruin the fun of the game. Since you all have seen naked men, drink up!" Li Ming ordered ss she crossed her arms in front of her chest.
"Why do you think so? We never confessed that we have ever seen someone naked." Roshan asked as he looked at her with a frown decorating his handsome face.
"Are you trying to tell me that in your hundreds of thousands of years, you guys did not even see each other naked? Like really? You want me to believe that?" Li Ming scoffed as she rolled her eyes.
The Immortals passed each other quick glances as one by one their hands reached towards their wine glasses.
However...
"Then you should drink too!"
The room became dead silent as everyone stared at Snowy who was looking at his shocked Master.
"Me? Why me?"
Li Ming was definitely not sure why her little familiar would utter some nonsense like that.
"If we are talking about them seeing a naked man then you, my dear, have seen hundreds of naked men. So, you should drink too."
The Immortals turned their eyes towards her as they stared at her with their shocked eyes. Too many emotions were surrounding those beautiful eyes that had become a part of her daily dreams.
She felt Hei Long's grip tightening around her waist and it made her once again started speaking.
"Wait! Guys, don't believe him. He's trying to set me up. It's not like what he's saying. I have never seen a naked man. Please trust me."
Li Ming desperately looked at her mates who had become a little less tensed by her words but the fire in their eyes still had to calm down.
"And you! What rubbish do you think you are spouting? When did I..."
"What about watching porn?'
" Wait! What?"
She could not grasp a single thing that was going on. Did her little familiar was out to take revenge on her?
"Are you kidding me? Watching someone naked in porn doesn't mean that I saw a naked man in real life. That can't be counted as a real-life experience. Don't you dare lie to my mates!"
Li Ming glared at the furball and the warning bells could clearly be heard. However, Snowy was really out to destroy her relationship with her mates.
"It's you who is lying, not me. Don't blame me for speaking out the truth. Keep them in dark as much as you want." The Pomeranian huffed as he once again snuggled his face against Heaven Emperor's stomach.
"You..."
Li Ming almost lost her mind due to the anger that was covering her brain with the need for dumping her familiar into a pot of boiling water.
But before she could listen to her brain and actually take any action, the sudden pain that erupted in her shoulder made her focus returned to her mates who were staring at her.
Their eyes were filled with questions and even anger. She did not even need them to voice out their question.
As a smart person, she hurriedly started explaining.
"As I said, don't listen to him. He's really trying to make you guys angry at me. I seriously have not a naked man in real life, I swear."
She was not lying. Watching naked people in videos could not be considered seeing them naked in real life, right?
As her mates looked at the sincerity in her eyes and the fact that she went as far as swearing on her words, therefore, it did not take them long to calm down.
Li Ming felt Hei Long's hold loosening around her waist as he again planted a kiss on her right shoulder, the exact place where he bit her before.
"We trust you." The Moon Immortal said with a soft smile as the warmth returned in his beautiful cerulean eyes.
Li Ming felt herself relaxing against the Second Demon Prince's warm and well-built chest.
It was like she just survived through an apocalypse. The mere thought of what would have happened if they had believed in Snowy's nonsense rather than her, made a cold shiver ran down her spine.
"Right! We trust you and we believe that you won't lie to us." Ruoshan said as he gave her a soft smile.
Li Ming hurriedly nodded her head as a small smile also made its way to her lips.
"Complete idiots!" Snowy muttered as he scoffed at the Immortals before walking at the other end of the room to sit.
Thankfully, the Immortals paid him no attention as they emptied their glasses filled with wine.
Little did Li Ming knew that Snowy wasn't done yet!
He was about to look up when his eyes landed on the little Snowy who was about to climb up on his lap.
He watched in pure surprise as the furball sat down comfortably in his lap while looking completely at ease.
