"You heartless scoundrel!!!"
A silver light flashed inside the room.
Lin Qingxue's eyes were bloodshot. A silver-white longsword had appeared in her hand at some point, and her lips trembled with anger.
Ye Shu stood frozen in place, utterly bewildered.
What in the world was going on!
How did it escalate to him marrying Xiao Qingli?
"Sister Qingxue, you're not allowed to hurt Big Brother!" Xiao Qingli spread her arms, shielding Ye Shu behind her and staring at Lin Qingxue warily.
"You two... good... very good!"
Lin Qingxue was so furious that the tip of her sword trembled.
To think she had risked her life going to the Snake-Man City to save this heartless jerk, only to find out he had already hooked up with Xiao Qingli behind her back!
"She's just a child!!!"
"You shameless bastard!"
"No, wait." Protected behind the little girl, Ye Shu felt his brain about to explode. "Listen to me first, there must be some misunderstanding here."
He looked down at the earnest Xiao Qingli and asked, "Qingli, when did Big Brother ever say he was going to marry you?"
"About that?"
Xiao Qingli blinked her large eyes, looking entirely innocent. "Because Big Brother saw Qingli completely naked in the bathhouse. You even touched my entire body with your hands, inside and out, not missing a single spot."
"Mommy said that a girl's body is very important."
"Only a future husband can look at it and touch it. So since Big Brother touched Qingli, of course you are Qingli's husband!"
"Look, Sister Qingxue."
Xiao Qingli pulled a jade pendant from her robes, offering it up in her palms like a precious treasure.
Seeing that jade pendant, Ye Shu's face instantly turned pale.
Her explanation was worse than no explanation at all.
Lin Qingxue's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
Her longsword flashed, pointing straight at Ye Shu's throat. Her eyes were red with fury. "You heartless scumbag! You won't even spare a child. What do you have to say for yourself now?"
With that, she moved to strike him down.
Crack!
Smack!
Ah!
Ye Shu's figure flashed, closing the distance in the blink of an eye. With a tap of his finger, Lin Qingxue's longsword instantly slipped from her grasp. Ye Shu then grabbed her slender wrists and pinned her down beneath him.
"Can you just calm down for a second?"
"Let me go! I can't calm down!" Lin Qingxue struggled desperately, her eyes flushed and brimming with tears. "You heartless jerk! You big liar! Womanizer! Menace! Ungrateful wretch! Wife and child abandoner! Pedophile!"
All sorts of insults tumbled out of her mouth, not a single one repeating.
The noise was making Ye Shu's head throb.
Deciding to stop explaining altogether, he suddenly leaned down and forcefully sealed her lips with his own.
"Mmph!"
Lin Qingxue's eyes widened, her mind going completely blank.
Was she being forcefully kissed?
Was she being forcefully kissed?
Was she being forcefully kissed?
She instinctively tried to struggle, but Ye Shu pinned her wrists tightly, rendering her unable to move.
"Mmm~ Hmph..."
Gradually, she stopped resisting. Instead, she closed her eyes and began to respond with a hint of passion.
Sitting at the head of the bed, Xiaobai was completely dumbfounded.
Meanwhile, Xiao Qingli tilted her head curiously, unable to understand how Sister Qingxue and Big Brother, who were just fighting, were suddenly kissing.
However, it was like this when her mom and dad fought in the past, too.
As long as Dad gave a kiss, Mom would stop being angry.
Kissing is the way to stop people from being angry, Xiao Qingli silently noted in her heart.
On the other side, Ye Shu finally released his lips.
Because if he didn't, Lin Qingxue beneath him would likely become the first cultivator to die of suffocation from a kiss.
"Pant... pant..."
Lin Qingxue gasped for air, her face as red as a boiled shrimp. "You... you..."
"Now can you listen to me properly?"
Ye Shu looked down at her from above.
"At the time, I was disguised as a member of the dancer troupe. Xiao Qingli wanted a scrub, and if I didn't help her, my identity would likely have been exposed, ruining all our previous efforts."
"But you still looked!"
Lin Qingxue glared at him, looking indignant.
"Well, you weren't there at the time," Ye Shu said with an innocent face. "I couldn't have possibly predicted this scene today, could I?"
"I..."
Lin Qingxue was left speechless.
But the thought that this heartless jerk had not only seen Xiao Qingli completely but also touched her all over made her chest feel tight with frustration.
Why should this happen?
She was obviously the one who came first.
Back in the Magical Beast Mountain Range, it was this scumbag who didn't want her to stay and even threatened her with a recording stone, which was why it took until now for them to be together.
Why did it have to be like this?
The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Her face scrunched up, her lips pressed tightly together, and tears welled up in her eyes. She just stared into Ye Shu's eyes without saying a word.
"Come on, sigh."
Seeing her look like a little crybaby, Ye Shu sighed. "Alright, it's my fault, okay? I promise you, this kind of situation will never happen again."
"You said that, not me."
Lin Qingxue turned her face away, refusing to look at him.
"Yes, I said it."
Seeing her mood improve, Ye Shu smiled faintly. He pressed down a little lower and breathed into her ear, "Say, I didn't get enough of that kiss just now. Can we do it again?"
"Fi... fine..."
Lin Qingxue agreed vaguely, her face flushed red.
To be honest, she hadn't gotten enough either. Just as she was about to close her eyes and pucker her lips, she suddenly felt a burning heat against her lower abdomen—something was poking her.
Even if she had never eaten pork, she had seen pigs run.
She had read more than her fair share of romance novels.
Lin Qingxue instantly realized what it was.
She sprang up from the bed, her face full of panic, grabbed Xiao Qingli—who had been watching the good show—and bolted for the door.
"That, that, you, you, you!"
"I'll take Xiao Qingli out to reunite with her sisters first and get her registered. You stay in the room and don't wander off."
With that, she dragged Xiao Qingli away in a fluster.
The door slammed shut with a bang.
Leaving only a completely dumbfounded Ye Shu behind.
"What the..."
"Alright, she's gone..."
He waved his hand, losing his enthusiasm, then turned around, sat on the edge of the bed, and just stared blankly without speaking.
Looking exactly like an abandoned, lonely soul.
Xiaobai stood at the head of the bed, looking at his back. Seeing him continuously rubbing the ring on his finger with his right hand, she suddenly felt a pang of heartache for him.
Although this guy never said it out loud.
She knew.
He must be thinking about Danxia.
"Hey!"
Xiaobai stretched her short little legs, walked up behind Ye Shu, and patted him, planning to say something to comfort him.
But her pupils suddenly shrank.
She saw that Ye Shu's right hand was actually grasping a small, completely silver-white snake.
"Eek!"
"Ohohohohoho!"
Ye Shu suddenly gasped sharply, his head jerking backward. His eyes rolled back, and his body went limp, slumping down.
Xiaobai: "?"
