Yu Rongling let out an exaggerated scream of agony, "What sin did I commit to witness this scene... My snake eyes are blinded, I need to heal!! I am a snake, not a dog... don't feed me dog food..."
He covered his face and fled.
Once Yu Rongling had left, I tried to quietly channel Spiritual Power into the snake body of the cheongsam.
The Spiritual Power I poured in was like a clay bull entering the sea, and I watched as what I once thought was an unending stream from my body entered it, and still there was room for more.
It seemed that by intervening in Yitian's matters and accidentally saving many innocent children, I had accumulated quite a bit of good fortune.
I was overjoyed and couldn't help but push even more Spiritual Power into the cheongsam.
"Wanwan, keep some for yourself, don't give it all to me," Yu Longting's eyes moved as he seized my wrist and forcibly stopped me from infusing Spiritual Power.
I blinked, "But... all my Spiritual Power is yours, isn't it?"
"You..." Yu Longting, such a silver-tongued scheming snake, was left speechless by my words.
I pinched his chin, moved closer, and kissed his lips, "Yu Longting, let me look after you, help you form a bigger and bigger inner core, don't refuse me, otherwise, I'll feel like you're rejecting me."
After I kissed him, his body stiffened.
From a beast that once only knew conquering and plundering, he became as docile as a sheep, letting me kiss him, "Are you actually trying to atone for your father's sins? I've said it before, there's no need, Wanwan... "
"It's not just about atonement, Yu Longting, you're so kind to me, I also want to be good to you." I kept shamelessly initiating kisses to seduce him, and finally, feeling a bit embarrassed, dropped my head and rubbed it against his chest.
Yu Longting sighed, "Can't you change that part of you that doesn't want to owe others? For every bit of effort I put in for you, you want to repay it a thousandfold, how did I pick up such a treasure..."
"I can't change! You can still return the merchandise now!"
There was only a little Spiritual Power left in my body, but the capacity of the cheongsam was clearly far from full, at last, I felt content.
Then I quietly retracted it, waiting for the next time my Spiritual Power filled up before nurturing him again.
By that time, I should be able to fill the cheongsam completely.
While I was self-indulgent, Yu Longting suddenly became fierce, "Su Wan, still trying to trick me into a return? You're mine for this whole lifetime."
Yu Longting lay down beside me, tightening the arm around my waist, hugging me close as if to crush me into his body, "I'll take care of you, and you can nurture me however you want, but if you think of leaving me, no way!"
I knew this was this guy's true nature; he never intended to really let me go.
Looking back, he was always scheming to steal my heart at every moment.
Washing my hair, applying hand cream, cutting my nails, working as a helper in a restaurant...
All trivial things, yet they seeped into every pore of my life.
I was a person without a Love Soul, only interested in the host of the Love Soul, Ye Jiqing.
But he managed to break through that soul barrier, making me aware without a Love Soul that I could never possibly like Ye Jiqing.
Such ability in the game would rival any GM.
Thinking of the Little Dumpling in my belly, a wave of desolation washed over me.
Although the Demonic Qi in Dumpling's body had been cleared by Yu Longting's Elixir, it proved Su Qiang's previous claim that Yu Longting would kill Dumpling was a deliberate setup.
But Taoist Qingyang and Su Qiang both said I once had another child...
What exactly is going on?
Should I... ask Yu Longting about it?
Yu Longting saw that I was lost in thought and, touching my swelling belly, he asked in a soft voice, "Daydreaming? What's on your little mind? Tell your husband about it. Keeping it all to yourself is no fun, right?"
"My cousin Su Qiang came over. She has become Xuanjing's woman," I murmured my concerns to him. At this moment, my trust in Yu Longting was complete, "Yu Longting, Su Qiang said that I had your child when I was eighteen. Is that true?"
"Am I such a beast? To want you at eighteen? Impossible," Yu Longting stated with certainty.
I thought to myself that I knew Su Qiang was spouting nonsense.
Suddenly, Yu Longting's index finger touched my forehead, "Forget."
This scene overlapped with a moment in the Serpent Domain, where a person with an aura and voice like Yu Longting pointed at my forehead in the same way, erasing my memory.
I knew everything, I remembered everything.
But it was as if there was an eraser in my mind, wiping away my recent doubt and all memories related to the claim Su Qiang made about being pregnant at eighteen, completely clean.
What the hell, not a single one of them plays by the rules.
My father erased my memories, and now my son is still erasing my memories.
Damn it...
My consciousness was extremely chaotic, and my body felt weak, slumping downwards, I passed out.
*
The next day was bright and clear.
The white goose raised in the backyard was fed well, it was simply too fat.
While Yu Longting and I were digging a pit to roast the goose, I didn't want to waste any leftovers, so I called over not only Yu Rongling, who was possessed by gluttony, but also Xiao Li.
Yu Longting simply took out his WeChat and invited Beichen over as well.
"Just for a roast goose, you made a whole pit and had your own husband dirty with soil from digging. Damn, that's quite the karma for the goose from its previous life," Yu Longting complained.
Yu Longting didn't want me to do too much, so he was the one who did nearly all the work, while I was responsible for assisting him a little on the side.
I put on heat-proof gloves, and we divided the work of slicing the roast goose between us. "You're enjoying eating it but still talk about karma. Actually, after raising it for so long, I've grown attached. If I hadn't promised to make it for Rongling, I really wouldn't want to kill it."
"If you like geese, we could buy a few more to raise," said Yu Longting, whose efficiency was otherworldly, finishing his portion before me and serving it to the others first.
I couldn't help but laugh and cry, "It's not that I like raising geese, it's that I grew attached to that particular one."
"Grow attached to a roast goose? Cut it out, when it merges in your belly, that's true love, isn't it?" Yu Rongling mumbled, and when he saw his brother approaching, he grabbed Yu Longting's sleeve, uttering in a whisper loud enough for me to hear, "Bro, your spring has arrived. Last night, sister-in-law personally admitted that I'm her little brother-in-law."
"Really?" To my surprise, Yu Longting also cared a lot, crouching down to whisper with him.
"Would I lie about this?"
Yu Rongling stuffed a piece of roast goose in his mouth, speaking indistinctly, "Although she did it to save me by bargaining with Yun Hao, it's still a big step forward. She's never admitted before that she is your wife."
"You little rascal are just a burden, always getting my wife into trouble, and still you act so smug," Yu Longting smacked Yu Rongling's head without any courtesy.
After getting smacked, Yu Rongling began to sulk, "Even though I always drag sister-in-law into trouble, I'm now completely her fan, worshiping her beyond measure, and I'll always report to you. I also have major intel on sister-in-law that I haven't reported to you yet~"
His tone was like that of a mischievous little spy.
"What intel do you still have?" Yu Longting asked, his demeanor unchanging and serious.
