My Wife Is The Final Boss-Chapter 804 - 452: Fulfilling Responsibilities Is Important (Double-length)
Even.
Because sometimes Xu Chang’an would become too immersed, Yun Qian thought... if time could be reduced a bit, it might not be a bad thing.
Because it’s actually quite exhausting not being able to catch one’s breath, so she really adored the act of kissing; it actually served as a comforting presence and, in this case, made Miss Yun’s already limited strength even more stretched thin.
In the end, even a quarter of an hour couldn’t be sustained.
So...
"Not kissing, perhaps, is a good thing?" Yun Qian tilted her head and murmured.
"Huh?" Miss Lu didn’t hear clearly, staring dumbfounded at Yun Qian.
"What did you say?"
"Nothing." Yun Qian shook her head: "Let me think about how to tell you."
Feelings?
Every time it would be a different feeling, but without exception, it was always filled with happiness.
To the girl named Yun Qian, it was as intoxicating as fine wine, as comforting as a sweet tea given by her husband after exhaustion, as irresistible as lying in the sun with him in a bamboo forest.
"Besides peace of mind, it’s very happy, feels... like the taste of candied fruits." Yun Qian described.
"Sweet... sweet..." Miss Lu murmured, hiding her face with the teacup.
If she heard one or two more sentences, she feared her head might explode.
The pressure in her blood increased greatly, her mind was foggy, and her vision started to blur.
What was that about taste?
She had read about such things in books.
But she didn’t want to learn this knowledge that was completely meaningless to her except for jealousy and longing.
For a moment, Miss Lu admitted she was moved, wanting to take even just a small, shy step forward.
But she faltered.
No partner.
Even if she felt attracted to a man, she had no target.
"I... I understand, ma’am, please don’t say more." Miss Lu pursed her lips, sighing softly, stopping Yun Qian from continuing her description.
Yun Qian nodded, not thinking further.
The girl saved some energy for talking.
And as Miss Lu’s little courage dissipated completely, only faint disappointment remained.
Useless.
It’s knowledge of no use.
Miss Lu suddenly felt very sad because, for her, the only possible man she would interact with in this life... should only be Zhu Pingniang’s husband.
By then, marrying off as a dowry maid, she could share some burdens with her sister...?
In other words, before that, she wouldn’t have a chance to interact with men—if there were, she would refuse.
Miss Lu had long decided she would only become her sister’s dowry in this life. She didn’t consider it a sacrifice because if it were a man Zhu Pingniang liked and willingly married, she would definitely like him very much too.
So, only staying by Zhu Pingniang’s side is something she would never waver on.
Miss Lu believed that, not only herself, but other girls at Flower Moon Building, even the never-met Ms. Qin... must think the same.
But ideals are just ideals.
Imagining Zhu Pingniang’s personality, Miss Lu even felt a sense of deep despair.
Hoping for Zhu Pingniang to marry is just too far away.
Miss Lu even thought, expecting a man from Zhu Pingniang who likes cuddling the accounts at midnight... might be easier if Zhu Pingniang remembered her past life’s memories and directly found the husband from her past life to marry.
Sighing.
It feels like, the thing about getting close with a man, there’s no chance in this life.
So, the feeling Yun Qian described, like candied fruits, she might really never experience in her lifetime.
Miss Lu had a bitter face and asked in Yun Qian’s puzzled gaze: "Ma’am, really... does it really feel like candied fruits?"
"Yes." Yun Qian nodded: "It does, sometimes right after having candied fruits..."
"Alright, please stop talking." Miss Lu covered her ears, her blood pressure rising again, making her breathing somewhat labored.
Yun Qian: "..."
Can’t catch a breath.
It was kind of like herself.
But Miss Lu’s stamina was much better than hers.
Her eyelashes fluttered, feeling that Miss Lu at that moment resembled the Xiaohua that her husband raised, thus she said nothing more.
"Since it’s like candied fruits, then... I should eat more candied fruits." Miss Lu, after calming down her mood, smiled bitterly: "Candied fruits... I... can afford to eat them."
That’s all she could afford.
"Really unhappy?" Yun Qian watched Miss Lu’s seemingly stagnant, awkward smile, asking.
"It’s not unhappy." Miss Lu couldn’t help but sigh, lying on the table like a salted fish, nowhere near the solemnity and prestige of her usual self: "It’s just that it feels like my life... is in sight at one glance."
"? " Yun Qian didn’t understand.
"It’s to say, bringing maids, bringing maids, bringing maids... if there’s a chance to enter the Immortal Sect, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have the mind to compete with others about anything, so even if there’s a chance to enter the Immortal Sect, I should also help Ms. Zhu with some affairs, and care for Ni Zi who also went to the Immortal Sect." Miss Lu stretched lazily: "In this life, it should just be this uneventful."
"Isn’t that not good?" Yun Qian asked.
"It’s very good."
Unexpectedly, Miss Lu perked up, sat up straight, and seriously said: "Calm, dull some more is nothing bad, I really like this feeling, not a bit bored, of course, if sister can marry and bring a man home, I’ll be even happier."
She actually had the chance to go to the Immortal Sect early on, back when she was a child, Zhu Pingniang had said her talent was quite good indeed.
But she didn’t want to go.
Because the Immortal Sect seen from books seemed very scary, but knowing more now tells her even if she went to the Immortal Sect... she would likely still be like she is now.
Miss Lu only wanted a peaceful life, one where she could be close to her favored men and women.
Fight and kill, dramatic upheavals aren’t suitable for her.
Being able to, like now, talk about topics with Yun Qian that make her blush and heart race, maybe not sleep well at night, is already a very happy thing for her.
"So long she likes it." Yun Qian nodded, her gaze warming further towards Miss Lu.
Feeling Miss Lu’s thoughts, Yun Qian reminisced about the intimate world she shared with Xu Chang’an on the island.
Those days were peaceful too, but just as Miss Lu said, she would never grow bored, only always feel it’s not enough.
Indeed, she is a woman charming in all aspects.
At this time, Yun Qian felt a bit puzzled.
Why do her husband’s relationships, one after another, always make her feel fond, always give her goodwill?
It’s a very strange thing.
The woman named Yun Qian is not a kind-hearted girl; her eyes only see Xu Chang’an, but now... she feels goodwill even towards these relations that don’t qualify as connections.
And not just one.
It seems the natural goodwill towards these women is already very well placed.
This feeling, this position of goodwill, is like she’s seeing not an undefined relationship but one already confirmed with Xu Chang’an.
Thinking that if before her appearance, Xu Chang’an already had a wife, Yun Qian, who doesn’t get jealous, would feel goodwill towards the woman who walked through storms with him.
Though actually, Yun Qian didn’t intend to get involved in this life, she clearly lived on the island, it was Xu Chang’an who inexplicably came to her.
Doesn’t matter.
Yun Qian shook her head, not considering the matter further.
Knowing her liking towards Miss Lu was enough.
"...Phew."
Beside her, Miss Lu secretly watched Yun Qian, relieved with a breath.
Yun Qian’s bad mood seemed to have vanished.
That’s good.
At this moment, Miss Lu successfully fulfilled her role—improving Yun Qian’s mood.
In stark contrast to Qinling, the passably accomplished second daughter demonstrated her value to this world once more.
Compared to Xu Chang’an’s tendency to stir things, Miss Lu’s presence truly brings comfort and reassurance to Frosty Heaven.
Very reassuring.
