Marrying a White Snake Wife is Super Cool-Chapter 62: We’re Done For!! My Eight-Headed Serpent Is Gone
Nighttime.
Lu Yuan and Su Liyan were leaning against the headboard.
Su Liyan rested her head in her husband’s arms, watching the book he held as he taught her to read.
"What about this character on the second line?"
Lu Yuan asked, one arm wrapped around his wife, his hand habitually roaming over her warm and tempting body while his other held up the book.
Su Liyan immediately replied in a sweet, delicate voice:
"It’s ’goose,’ as in ’snow as thick as goose feathers’~"
Lu Yuan nodded in satisfaction. ’This wife of mine... once you teach her something, she knows it. She never forgets by the next morning what she was taught the night before.’
"So smart~ How did I get such a smart wife~"
As he spoke, Lu Yuan pulled his wife into a tight embrace, a wide grin on his face.
Held tightly in her husband’s arms, Su Liyan was both shy and bold as she looked up at him and said in her sweet voice:
"It’s because you’re such a good teacher~~"
’Now that they were in bed with no one else around, his wife’s sweet little voice was as pleasant as could be.’
’It was soft and lilting, with a seductive little hook at the end of each word that threatened to steal his very soul~’
Lu Yuan tightened his embrace around his wife and grinned.
"Then how are you going to thank me~"
Su Liyan froze for a moment, then shyly leaned in at once and gave Lu Yuan a SMOOCH on the cheek.
Lu Yuan then raised an eyebrow.
"Just one side?"
The shy Su Liyan immediately leaned over to Lu Yuan’s other cheek and gave him two more SMOOCHES.
However, Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow again with a mischievous smile.
"Hey, why two kisses on the left and only one on the right?"
Overcome with shyness, Su Liyan hugged her husband and whined sweetly:
"You~~ You’re such a rascal~"
Then, Su Liyan wrapped her arms around her husband and started kissing him nonstop.
After the two frolicked in bed for a while, Su Liyan gazed up at her husband from his embrace, her eyes full of affection, and said seriously:
"My love~~
I tiger you~"
Huh?
Lu Yuan was completely baffled.
"What?"
Su Liyan tilted her beautiful face up, looking a little smug.
"It’s a Western phrase~
’Tiger’ means to like someone~"
Seeing his wife’s proud little expression, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
"Oh? So you know Western words now, do you?"
Su Liyan nodded slightly, then pursed her lips into a smile.
"I ran into Daoist Longchuan again on my way back from the main residence with the peach crisps. I learned it from him~"
Lu Yuan paused, then couldn’t help but roar with laughter, mimicking his wife’s inexplicably cute tone.
"Oh~ So you learned it from him, did ya~"
Su Liyan froze, then shyly buried herself in Lu Yuan’s arms and whined, 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
"You~~ Don’t copy me~~"
As Lu Yuan and his wife shared a loving, playful embrace...
「Nighttime.」
On the official road outside Taiping City, gusts of north wind howled.
Inside a horse-drawn carriage, Daoist Longchuan grimaced, clutching his face.
’That blow was far too vicious.’ Daoist Longchuan felt like several of his teeth had been knocked loose.
But despite this, Daoist Longchuan breathed an inexplicable sigh of relief.
’It was a good thing he’d been slapped. At least it meant the matter was now closed, a new page turned.’
’Otherwise... every time he thought about it and remembered the Great Immortal’s sinister expression...’
’...it really made his skin crawl.’
"Master, at the fork up ahead, are we going to the Provincial City or to Xilingzi?"
Daoist Longchuan mumbled, still clutching his face:
"Since I made a promise to Madam Zhao, we’re going to Xilingzi, of course.
We’ll go to the nearest town to Xilingzi and rest for a couple of days, then we’ll go in and see what’s what!"
Daoist Longchuan had to rest for a few days. Otherwise, how could he possibly show his swollen face to anyone!
......
「Meanwhile.」
「Taixing Mountain, Dou Shi Temple.」
A Little East Asia in wooden clogs, a jar with a Talisman stuck to it tucked under his arm, hurried through the night with a panicked expression.
Soon, the Little East Asia reached a room, pushed the door open, and rushed inside.
Inside the room, several Daoists from Dou Shi Temple and a few other Little East Asia were sitting on a heated platform, eating and drinking.
After this Little East Asia entered, he turned to another Little East Asia with a look of panic and exclaimed:
"...&!!5!!4%...¥!!!!"
After the Little East Asia finished speaking, another one sitting on the platform—who appeared to be the leader of the group—also became flustered. He quickly took the jar and turned it over to inspect it.
The bottom of the jar was already covered in cracks, and a piece had even broken off.
Seeing this, the Little East Asia leader asked with a baffled look:
"%@#¥@??#¥¥????"
The Little East Asia who had just come in nodded frantically and said:
"@%#¥6@@!!!@!!!"
The few Dou Shi Temple Daoists sitting opposite them watched the two Little East Asia jabbering away, unable to understand a single word.
They could only see from the expressions on their faces that something seemed very wrong.
"What are those two Little East Asia talking about?"
one of the Dou Shi Temple Daoists asked curiously, taking a sip of his alcohol.
Another Daoist next to him shook his head without looking up, continuing to eat the snacks on the table. "Who knows what they’re muttering about."
Just as the two Dou Shi Temple Daoists finished speaking, the two Little East Asia turned to look at them in unison.
Holding up the jar with the hole in its bottom, they looked at the two Dou Shi Temple Daoists and spoke in unison, their voices thick with the local Taiping dialect:
"We’re finished!!
Our Eight-Headed Serpent is gone!"
......
「The next morning.」
Lu Yuan’s little family of three finished their breakfast.
Aunt Zhao sat at her vanity, putting on various pieces of jewelry. Looking into the mirror, she smiled at the lovey-dovey couple behind her and asked:
"So, where are we off to today?"
Lu Yuan, with his arm around his wife, smiled and said:
"You don’t have to worry about that. Just follow us today and do as we say. We’ve got it all planned out."
Hearing her sweetheart’s words, Aunt Zhao beamed.
"Alright~ I’ll listen to my sweetheart~"
’Come to think of it, ever since she married into a family in Taiping City at the age of fifteen...’
’...no matter where Zhao Qiao’Er went or what she did, she was always the one making the decisions, the one leading others.’
’Never once had she followed someone else around like a docile young wife.’
’This feeling of not having to think for herself about what to do... it had truly never happened before.’
’For a moment, Zhao Qiao’Er found herself feeling inexplicably expectant.’
Once Zhao Qiao’Er had put on her jewelry, looking incredibly glamorous and noble, the three of them took a side door into the large alleyway beside the Zhao Family residence.
A carriage had already been prepared for them there.
And, of course, a crowd of guards.
Seeing this crowd, Lu Yuan blinked, then immediately said:
"We don’t need an escort. Everyone can go back and rest."
’This huge crowd makes it look like we’re heading out to start a fight.’
Lu Yuan’s words, naturally, had no effect on the guards.
Or rather, if Zhao Qiao’Er weren’t present, the guards would have listened to Lu Yuan.
After all, everyone in the residence knew that the Young Master Nephew was the apple of the Madam’s eye.
But with the Madam right there beside them, they naturally had to listen to her.
But Zhao Qiao’Er held her head high and said with a cool expression:
"What? Does what my close nephew says not count?"
Once Zhao Qiao’Er spoke, everyone understood and immediately dispersed.
Then Zhao Qiao’Er turned to the old steward at her side and said:
"You don’t need to follow either. No one is to follow us."
The old steward bowed his head slightly and said respectfully:
"Yes, Madam."
