Bab 260: Thicker Than An Arm [M]

This was not the first time he had seen Shen Nianzu topless. Back at Atlantis when Shen Nianzu transformed into a merman, Jin Jiuchi had secretly marveled at how beautifully pristine his whole body was because of course, when had the jade doll ever ceased being beautiful? 

But this… this was different. 

There was something different about the way he shyly and gingerly allowed the shirt to slip off his shoulders only to rest just above his elbows. There was something different about the delicate flush that adorned his skin, the light colored buds on his chest that grew perk under the caress of cool air, his belly that quivered with every breath he took, the inviting and irresistible sweetness that radiated from his body—

Different. Everything felt so different now, so much that Jin Jiuchi could only freeze and gawk at him like a spellbound fool. He did not even register what Shen Nianzu had just ordered him to do.
