Being near Steve made Vivien feel more secure than ever before. Lucy and Sofia were also very kind to her, dressing her up beautifully and accepting her, even though she was just a humble and weak girl.

Now that Steve was going to chase her away, Vivien was really afraid to go back to her old life. Steve was shocked by her reaction, as he hadn't expected that Vivien would be so pa.s.sionate about staying.

"Don't be afraid. If you don't want to leave, n.o.body will chase you away. We'll all welcome you to stay." Steve reached out and wiped the tears from Vivien's face.

Her clear gaze was so pure. Clearly, the world was full of malice, but she was still full of hope and was trying to change everything for the better. Steve couldn't figure out what a pure heart she must have to have such beautiful eyes and hope amid a life full of such malice and darkness.

"Really?" Vivien looked up at Steve.

"Really! I swear by my name!" Steve said seriously.

Vivien burst into laughter immediately, but she soon began to pout again. "No, that's not enough. I need other guarantees."

"What guarantees?" Steve asked.

"Can… I be your woman, like Lucy and Sofia?" Vivien felt as if her heart would jump out of her throat. She never would've thought that she would say such bold words to him. It was totally of character for her!

"Vivien, even if you don't become my woman, I will still let you stay." Steve thought that Vivien was afraid of being abandoned, so she wanted to trade herself for the rights to stay.

Vivien's face paled, while another thought formed in her head…

Am I not worthy enough to be Steve's woman?

But, she didn't ask that. In her mind, since she didn't think that she deserved that role, she would keep trying until she did deserve to be one of Steve's women!

"Well, I'll stay... But, can you promise me something?" Vivien looked up at Steve.

"What is it?" he asked, smiling at her.

"Kiss me!" Vivien's eyes were very serious, and Steve even saw a lot of complex emotions swirling in them.

This time, Steve did not hesitate to kiss the angelic girl directly, but in his heart, it was only a simple goodnight kiss. Just as Steve pecked Vivien's lips gently and was getting ready to get up and leave, Vivien suddenly wrapped her arms around his neck!

Before Steve could respond, her tongue had penetrated into his mouth! Steve was shocked. However, Vivien was so inexperienced, she did not know what to do next after sticking her tongue inside his mouth!

She had never expected to be so bold, and she lacked experience in this area, so she actually didn't know how to proceed. Steve wanted to laugh, as she was so impulsive, but didn't know how to kiss!

Then, Steve grabbed Vivien, pried her mouth open with his tongue, and responded to her kiss, while skillfully teaching Vivien what a perfect kiss felt like. The kiss lasted more than a minute, and Steve's desire was almost ignited, but he was able to keep calm.

Slowly, Steve let go of Vivien, and as their lips separated, he said, "It's time for you to go to bed."

Steve looked into Vivien's eyes. Vivien's face was as red as a ripened apple. It was her first kiss with a heteros.e.xual partner. Steve was so skillful, she had felt a wonderful feeling that she had never experienced before!

"Good night..." Vivien waved shyly to Steve.

Just as Steve was about to leave, he suddenly turned around and took out several bottles of serums, which he placed in Vivien's hands and said, "These are the serums that I cultivated. They have the same effect as the Subatomic Serum. Use them to practice in the future. But, when you use it, don't allow yourself to be seen by anyone but us!"

Vivien looked at the red serums in her hand. It was her first time seeing such beautiful serums.

"These are too valuable. I can't accept such a gift." Vivien immediately wanted to refuse them. After all, she was not a greedy person.

"Take it. Lucy and Sofia have some too. If you run out, you can ask them for more, or you can come find me. Also, as I cultivated it myself, it's free." Steve did not allow her to refuse his gift. He then turned around and left.

A happy smile sprang to her lips when she heard that Lucy and Sofia had some of the serum too. She saw this as a sign that Steve accepted her.

Thinking of their kiss just now, Vivien blushed again, then buried her head back in her blankets and laughed happily. She hadn't expected to have such a lucky day!
