Accidentally Married A Fox God - The sovereign lord spoils his wife-Chapter 267 Endless Amount of Satisfaction
Bai Yu's exclamation instantly captured Li Meirong's full attention. Still reeling from an emotional rollercoaster due to the silver-haired man trapping her in his arms, she settled her glistening eyes on Snowball with a troubled expression plastered on her face.
The Sovereign Lord however, paid no heed to his subordinate's outburst. His eyes never left Li Meirong's. The dark amber of his irises brightened to molten gold, softening his wrathful countenance.
As he looked deeply into her revealing eyes, the sneer playing upon his lips curved into a smug smile.
'So, my dear wife still cares about me?' he thought as he felt her soft, delicate hands gently pushing against the bare skin of his chest without a trace of Foxfire to surround them. He could feel the dampening fire of his rage morphing slowly into an entirely different kind of warmth.
Raising his hand, Bai Qingyue tenderly played with a loose tendril of Li Meirong's midnight hair, revelling in the silky texture.Leaning forward, his smile widened as he noticed his wife turn her gaze back to him and visibly stiffen because of their close proximity.
"Um, Master…?" Snowball began to inquire after losing the momentum to deliver his planned speech. Bai Qingyue momentarily raised his hand in the air, demanding silence. The trio of fox gods at his back turned mute on the spot. They became as still as statues, hoping to decrease their presence even further.
After successfully reclaiming Li Meirong's attention and pulling her back to focus on him, Bai Qingyue asked, "Why have you stopped?" a teasing tone could be traced in his voice, the smirk still playing on his luscious lips. "Did you not say you were going to use your powers on me if I came any closer? Or is this not close enough for you?"
Li Meirong's cheeks visibly flushed under his intense gaze. She cast her sight downwards, disregarding his obvious taunts, and rebuked him. "Zhu Qingyue, you really have no shame! What are you trying to prove here?" She gave another light nudge to his chest. "Look at your clothes, they're all burnt!"
After saying so, Li Meirong immediately retracted her hands, finally noticing the warmth and firmness pressing against her palm. She felt as if her face was suddenly on fire as she observed her teacher's scorched tunic revealing a sculpted chest and ridged abdomen.
The Fox Lord threw his head back and chuckled. It was a dark, masculine laughter swelling with pride. Knowing how deeply he managed to affect his wife brought him an endless amount of satisfaction.
Li Meirong wordlessly regarded her teacher with cheeks that were still dusted pink, her delicate eyebrows drew into a frown, confused by the sudden change of his mood. Sometimes it was hard for her to keep up with the violent swings they took. 'The insanity must run in the family…'
Along with the sounds of Bai Qingyue's rarely beheld merriment, the thick aura of violence gradually dissipated. The three shell-shocked subordinates stared at their Sovereign Lord with wide eyes, mouths slightly agape. Thankfully, they thought, it became much easier to breathe in the room.
Bai Yu sighed deeply. Even though his commanding presence was completely disregarded and his moment to shine had all but disappeared, he was still resolved to assist His Lordship and get into his good graces.
Snowball cleared his throat and announced, "Master, the servant girls told me everything, ah! His Lordsh- Senior Zhu Qingyue had a once in a lifetime opportunity to find a cure to the venom in his body. Unfortunately, he had to go far away and had no way of contacting you!" he raised a paw to his chest, " Though there is some good news! He found the cure! Senior Zhu is not going to die!"
Bai Yu glanced at His Lordship with a grin, ready to be showered with heaps of praises. Contrary to his expectation, he was met with a frowning glare. The Fox Lord was completely discontent with the speech.
