Chapter 9 Bone Fragrance

When Liu Nian saw Ge Lie standing at the door, he immediately stopped making noise, closed his mouth tightly and pretended to be mute.

Stevo bowed slightly to Gray and walked out silently. He had foreseen this scene.

In the greenhouse, Ge Lie and Liu Nian stared at each other with their eyes wide open and their eyes fixed on the floor.

Ge Lie walked in and sat on the recliner next to Liu Nian. "What? Did you see that I have nothing to say? I can chat with you about the topic just now."

Liu Nian immediately knelt down from the chair and pounded Ge Lie's leg in a flattering manner.

"I'm praising you. I'm praising you for being so handsome."

Seeing Liu Nian's servile look, Ge Lie's mood gradually improved and he asked Liu Nian to go back and sit down quickly.

"Your eyes are not swollen anymore, and not as ugly as before." Ge Lie glanced at Liu Nian's appearance and it seemed that he was doing well in the past few days.

Liu Nian glanced at Gulliver quietly. His complexion seemed to be much better. He was not as pale as when he just came back, nor as bloodless as when he came to her to ask questions the next day.

"You too, your face looks a lot rosier." Liu Nian laughed, looking heartless.

"Are you disappointed? You hope I die." Glie raised his eyebrows and saw Liu Nian waving his hands in panic.

"No, I was worried about you." Although I didn't want to admit it, I was really worried.

"He still has some conscience." Gulliver pursed his nose, leaned back in the chair, and closed his eyes to rest.

Hearing this, Liu Nian was speechless. What? Conscience? It was because of my blood that you were able to recover in the snowy plains. If anyone has a conscience, it should be you.

Liu Nian raised his hand and fanned away the mist around him. Look how angry I am. It’s even smoking.

Realizing something was wrong, Liu Nian looked around and asked, "Why is there fog all of a sudden?"

She subconsciously looked at Greg and found that he had opened his eyes at some point and was looking at her.

Liu Nian frowned. What a strange atmosphere! I know I am very charming, but I cannot accept love across species!

"It's bone incense." Ge Lie lowered his head and touched the stone hanging on his chest, answering Liu Nian's doubts.

"Ah?" Only then did Liu Nian see the round stone hanging on Gulley's chest. The stone was really emitting heat.

"Isn't it sinking?" Liu Nian pointed at the stone. "It's so big, it must be as big as my fist."

"Liu Nian, I don't have a heart." Ge Lie looked lonely, and even had tears in his eyes.

But because of the mist around him, Liu Nian did not notice Gle's changes.

“…” A sudden heart-to-heart talk??? Liu Nian didn’t know what to say.

"Vampires won't die even if they don't have a heart. They will just gradually become weaker until they fall asleep." Gul's voice was no longer as hoarse as before. The subwoofer hit Liu Nian's eardrums, sounding slightly sexy.

"Ah~" It turned out that they were talking about health issues. Liu Nian breathed a sigh of relief.

"But I'm different." Gle looked directly into Liu Nian's eyes, "I'm a mixed-blood, my mother is the Flame Eagle of the Beast Tribe."

“……” Liu Nian didn’t know that he was actually a hybrid oviparous animal. Should he sing a song “We Are Different” for him?

"I will die if I lose my heart." Ge Lie was unaware of Liu Nian's rich inner thoughts and was immersed in his own story.

“……” Liu Nian pursed his lips, not knowing what to do. This is a serious topic, how should I answer?

Wait? Gulliver feeds me with good food and drink every day, and he also said before that he has an important task to entrust to me. Is he going to give me my heart?

Seeing that Liu Nian's eyes were gradually becoming incomprehensible, Ge Lie added the next sentence, "So I have to use my mother's bone fragrance to nourish me and the power of the beastman's flame eagle, so that I won't die so soon."

Liu Nian stopped imagining and said tremblingly, "Your mother?"

"That's right." Gulley sighed, "This stone is made from my mother's ashes."

“……” It was so insane that Liu Nian stood there speechless.

"Are you scared?" Gulley's expression was dim in the mist, and his true thoughts could not be seen.

"I..." Liu Nian didn't know what to say. She just felt that the concepts of this world were very different from her world.
