My Demon Husband Is a Snake-Chapter 963: Putting On Rat Clothes

Dumpling immediately stopped crying and ate with great enjoyment.

The little guy, being fed, also gave Yu Longting a more pleasing look, instead of the expression directed at a bad dad like before.

Qi Yaogang didn’t mind Yu Longting’s sarcasm at all and laughed modestly, "Snake Lord, you’re mistaken. In my presence, one’s maturity is as vast as one’s age, yet the little Ginseng Spirit is forever a little girl to this old soul."

"Elder Qi, does Xiao Shenshen’s Ice Silkworm Gu count as a treasure?" I asked tentatively.

Qi Yaogang stroked his chin where an imaginary white beard would be, pondering, "Ice Silkworm Gu? Could it be the Emperor Gu from Mount Kunlun? Oh~ that’s definitely a treasure, and a supreme one at that! Luckily, I asked more about it."

"What’s wrong? Is the Ice Silkworm Gu unsuitable for wearing the Rat Immortal Robe?" I inquired earnestly.

In my heart, I was prepared. If Xiao Shenshen was unsuitable, I would wear the Rat Immortal Robe temporarily.

After all, Qi Yaogang saved Dumpling and me, and I couldn’t repay him.

Otherwise, today might have ended with two deaths.

Qi Yaogang nodded, then shook his head, "It’s hard to say what specific changes might occur. This old man doesn’t know. We’ll have to wait until it’s worn to find out. The girl should dress with the Snake Lord and the Lady of the Snake Lord assisting nearby to prevent any mishaps."

"Wanwan, accompany the Ginseng Spirit to change clothes; I’ll take care of Dumpling." Yu Longting, reading my thoughts, took Dumpling from my arms as he spoke.

Is this the first time Yu Longting has held a child since Dumpling was born?

On the surface, he looked calm and collected, but who knows how tumultuous his heart truly is.

I couldn’t help but chuckle, delighted to give the father and son a chance to be alone, "Alright then, once Dumpling is full, remember to lull him to sleep."

"Alright." Yu Longting’s face briefly showed a rare, unguarded warmth.

I bent down and gently said to Xiao Shenshen, "Let’s go change clothes."

"Alright, Young Madam." Xiao Shenshen smiled at me.

Qi Yaogang handed over the Rat Immortal Robe with both hands, "Here’s the garment."

"Alright." I took the garment, held Xiao Shenshen’s hand, and went into the bedroom to change.

The cheongsam was originally meant for Su Qiang, a slightly fuller size.

Xiao Shenshen’s build was extremely slender, and once she put it on, it was two sizes too large.

However, it quickly shrank and fitted Xiao Shenshen’s figure automatically.

Xiao Shenshen was baffled as she looked at the side where reverse joints fastened the buttons, "So many buttons, my hands can’t reach them, how do I button them?"

"Ah~ to be honest, after so long, I still haven’t learned how to do it." Seeing the buttons on the side of the cheongsam made my head spin, with no idea how to advise Shenshen, I knelt to help her, "However, when it’s on others, I might find it easier to button, huh, why are these buttons so cold~"

I vaguely felt the buttons were icy like they were frozen; after fastening one or two, I had to breathe on my fingers to warm them.

Otherwise, my fingers would become too numb to continue working.

"Young Madam, the Silkworm baby, it’s awake!" Xiao Shenshen whispered, wide-eyed.

Just as I finished the last button, "Could it be... awoken by the cheongsam?"

Initially, Old Zhao intended to assist Shenshen, planning to use the power of the Heavenly Track to awaken the Ice Silkworm.

Now, could it actually be the Rat Immortal Robe that awakens it?

"It’s so cold... so cold..." Suddenly, Xiao Shenshen collapsed on the floor.

She shivered uncontrollably, white breaths puffing from her mouth.

From the waist of the black cheongsam, azure-blue frost began to form, gradually spreading to other parts of her body...

Even though she is a Mount Changbai Ginseng Spirit, she shouldn’t be afraid of the cold.

Yet, in this extreme chill, her small body was still curling and trembling from the cold.

I quickly knelt beside Xiao Shenshen and infused some Spiritual Power into her body, "Is it better?"

"Not enough! More, give me more!" The voice came from Xiao Shenshen’s mouth, yet it was the Ice Silkworm speaking.

Startled, sensing something amiss, I hastily withdrew the Spiritual Power, "Ice Silkworm?"

"Continue, I am about to grow, the Spiritual Power is insufficient." The Ice Silkworm, as if not recognizing me, controlled Xiao Shenshen’s pupils, turning them a brilliant blue.
