Suddenly a Father

"Eh?"

Having her chin tilted up, Danxia blinked blankly, unable to react for a moment.

"What did you say?"

"I said, put your hair up."

Ye Shu repeated, saying lightly, "I'm not like some people who pull up their pants and refuse to acknowledge what happened."

"Put my hair up?"

With her chin supported by his hand, Danxia's pretty face turned beet red. She shook her head repeatedly, her delicate body trembling.

"No, no, absolutely not!"

"We are master and disciple! This kind of thing isn't allowed. If word gets out, we'll be mocked by the whole world!"

"We'd be drowned in a pig cage!"

"No, no, we can't do this!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Ye Shu didn't make things difficult for her. He let go, turned around, and walked away without the slightest hesitation.

"Since Master is unwilling, then forget it."

"Eh?"

Looking at his retreating back, Danxia was stunned again.

Wait, this isn't how the script should go, right?

Logically, shouldn't he insist a bit more? Shu'er should act tougher, like grabbing her hand and pinning her against the wall or something, and then she would half-heartedly and reluctantly agree.

What did it mean to just turn around and leave?

That wasn't how it was written in the romance novels at all!

Meanwhile, walking ahead, Ye Shu silently counted in his heart, One... two...

Before he could even count to three, a soft call came from behind.

"S-stop right there!"

"What? Has Master changed her mind?"

Ye Shu turned his head back.

He saw Danxia blushing, her beautiful hair already pinned up, revealing a white, slightly pink neck.

She turned her head away, not daring to look directly at Ye Shu's smile.

"Is... is this okay now?"

"Hmm..."

Ye Shu stroked his chin and commented, "You look a bit like a daughter-in-law of the Ye family now."

"Bad Shu'er, you only know how to bully me."

Danxia muttered softly, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly. A faint sense of happiness filled her heart.

Ye Shu took a step forward and winked teasingly.

"Still calling me Shu'er?"

"Um... H-husband." Danxia turned her head away, afraid to look at him, and forced the word out of her throat with great difficulty. She was so shy that even the roots of her ears turned red, looking like the rosy clouds on the horizon, breathtakingly beautiful.

Paired with that red robe, she really looked like a bride.

Who would have thought that the famous rank-nine alchemist of the Profound Sky Continent, the Medicine Fairy, a mighty Void Refinement expert, was actually a pitiful little woman who would cry and throw tantrums in private?

Even though Ye Shu had an excellent temperament and had seen many stunning beauties.

He had to admit that out of everyone he had ever met, his Master was the one who made his heart flutter the most.

After all, who wouldn't want a silly, delicate little wife who was incredibly tough on the outside, but acted foolishly, cried, fussed, and acted aggrieved only towards you?

This blatant contrast was the most alluring of all.

Ye Shu couldn't help but curl his lips slightly.

Could this be considered... a blessing in disguise?

"Anyway, Master, you are my woman now," Ye Shu said somewhat domineeringly. "Once you recover your physical body, I will naturally give you a perfect wedding."

"You don't need to feel sorry for yourself; I will take responsibility for you."

"Shu'er..."

Danxia's beautiful eyes trembled, her heart immensely moved.

She stared blankly at the youth's serious and determined face, unable to resist throwing herself into his arms. She said in a muffled voice, "Master likes Shu'er the most. I've always liked Shu'er, I like Shu'er the absolute most, hehehe."

As she spoke, she actually began to giggle foolishly with happiness.

"So it was premeditated all along."

Ye Shu hugged her and affectionately rubbed her hair.

Just as the two were enjoying this rare, heartwarming moment, the Ye Shu in the outside world suddenly noticed the snake tail around his waist twitch.

His consciousness instantly pulled away, returning to the back mountain.

At the same time, Medusa, who had been sound asleep, suddenly opened her eyes. Her golden vertical pupils stared fixedly at Ye Shu. Seeing him completely naked and entangled with her, the memories of the past three days instantly flooded her mind like a tidal wave.

For the past three days, she had been like a first-person spectator, watching helplessly as her own body made love with this little thief.

What was even more shameful was that although she couldn't control her body.

The sensations were still there!

The thought that the innocence she had guarded for so many years with heavy defenses had still been taken by this little thief caused an overwhelmingly massive sense of humiliation to instantly rush to Medusa's head.

"Little thief, you're courting death!!!"

She gritted her teeth, her right hand suddenly erupting with a dazzling golden light.

"A Zhen, are you for real?"

Ye Shu's pupils shrank. Although he had anticipated this, he still hadn't expected Medusa to show no mercy at all, attacking with fury the moment she woke up.

Seeing that Medusa was about to ruthlessly destroy him.

Ye Shu thought quickly in his desperation, wrapping his hands around her snake tail.

Caught off guard, Medusa let out a delicate cry, and the power she had just gathered in her right hand instantly dissipated.

She looked down, her eyes practically shooting fire.

"Little thief, how dare you!"

"Who told you to try and kill me indiscriminately the moment you woke up?" Ye Shu said with a look of disdain. "I'm just defending myself. Self-defense, do you understand?"

"Lecher! I will definitely kill you!"

"Ah!"

............

Whenever Medusa tried to break free or gather her power, she would be forcibly interrupted by Ye Shu. This fierce struggle lasted for a long time, until both of their strengths reached their absolute limits.

Medusa slumped weakly on the ground, panting heavily.

Ye Shu wasn't doing much better. He lay sprawled on Medusa's belly like a worm, gasping for breath. "We signed the 'Cross the Same Boat' contract. Aren't you afraid of breaking the oath?"

"You lecherous thief!"

Medusa glared at him with hatred, lowered her head, and bit hard into his shoulder. "We agreed you wouldn't force yourself on me. You broke the promise first."

"Oh please, you were the one who forced yourself on me, okay?"

Ye Shu wanted to cry but had no tears.

"I was perfectly fine cultivating over there, and without a word, you came up and started kissing, hugging, and groping me. I haven't even asked you to take responsibility yet, but here you are finding fault with me."

"Look, the 'Cross the Same Boat' contract didn't even trigger."

"Could it be that deep down, you were actually looking forward to this kind of thing, so the contract determined I didn't harm you?"

Ye Shu looked completely innocent.

"How could this Queen look forward to such a thing!"

Medusa looked ashamed and furious. "It must be you, you bastard, using some evil magic to control this Queen's body!"

"I'll bite you to death! I'll bite you to death!"

"......."

Seeing her acting like a mad dog and refusing to listen, Ye Shu couldn't be bothered to argue with her anymore. He rested his head against her smooth, tender belly and silently recovered his stamina.

Thump, thump... Thump, thump...

The sound of a violent heartbeat transmitted through the resonance of her skin.

Thump, thump... Thump, thump... Thump, thump...

Ye Shu suddenly frowned.

Wait.

This isn't right.

Why are there two heartbeats?

A crazy thought suddenly popped into his mind.

Could it be... he was going to be a father?
