"I won't open them, I won't open them, don't be nervous, relax."
I immediately realized what had happened and assured him with a soothing voice, my hands groping around to hug his thick snake body, "Is it because you're hurt that your body uncontrollably revealed its true form?"
"Wanwan... you... hold me." Yu Longting's voice was rough, with a hiss characteristic of snakes.
If others heard this, they might find it terrifying, but I found it familiar and comforting.
I was a bit unsure, "Hold... can't I hold you anymore?"
Isn't holding him my exclusive privilege?
Is this the rhythm of being disliked??
Yu Longting tightened his snake body around me, "You would be scared."
"Who is the scared one here? Good boy, I won't touch your Reverse Scale, I'll just hold you like this. Your snake body is cold and feels good in my arms." I really couldn't imagine what kind of injuries he sustained to break through Lin Huan's seal.
He even showed his true form~
If it weren't for Old Man Lin's age, I'd go over there and beat him up right now.
Yu Longting's snake body twisted, and his tone actually became whiny, "Touch the Reverse Scale, Wanwan, touch my Reverse Scale..."
Why has he suddenly become so tender?
"Okay, I'll touch your Reverse Scale, is it this spot?" My fingers moved along his snake body, with my eyes closed, searching for the Reverse Scale.
Yu Longting coiled tighter around my body, his voice a bit thicker, "Yes."
"Can't you change back temporarily?" I asked cautiously.
Yu Longting muttered, "Another two or three hours."
"Poor little snake, how severe are your injuries..." I said sympathetically.
Yu Longting somewhat annoyed, snorted, "Su Wan, I did it to save you and Dumpling."
Seeing him a bit angry, I couldn't maintain face.
I obediently dared not tease him anymore.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but after turning into a snake, his temperament and demeanor seemed uncontrollably altered...
Like a three-year-old spoiled child.
"Kiss my Reverse Scale." Yu Longting said.
I did as he requested.
Each kiss landed on his Reverse Scale.
Yu Longting's tail lightly scratched my spine...
After a long time, I fell asleep with my head on his snake body.
I actually just took a nap.
I probably didn't sleep for a few hours.
When I opened my eyes, Yu Longting had returned to his human form.
He had put his Blood Splendor Robe back on, but his eyes carried a playful yet wicked air, "Wanwan, you've finally woken up."
"Why do you have... a look that seems intent on killing someone?" I shrank back a bit, feeling something off about him.
Yu Longting beckoned with a finger, "Come here, you're my wife, how could I bear it?"
"Oh, then why do you look so strange?" I moved closer to him.
He pinched my chin with two fingers and kissed my lips, "After a snake gains enlightenment and is forced back to its original form, it becomes sensitive, like a three-year-old child, sensitive, fragile, and dependent. I didn't disturb you, did I, my dear wife?"
"Not at all, not at all, you were very cute and well-behaved, gentle and tender, not disturbing at all." I liked it a lot!
I shrank my neck, this guy cares so much about his face; remembering his Sensitive Period must be embarrassing for him.
"Well-behaved? Gentle and tender? Are those words used to describe men?"
Yu Longting slightly bit my lip, threateningly light, "Wanwan, can you forget that phase?"
"I'm not a computer that can delete browsing history with a command; I don't have that function." I pushed him away, slipped on house shoes and ran off, "I haven't eaten for half a day, I'm off to find some food~"
Just as I left the dorm, I heard a sound from the room across, the sound of a whip snapping against someone's body and Lin Huan's deep, angry voice also came through, "You disobedient girl, did all my teachings go in one ear and out the other since you were little? How dare you demean my precious granddaughter to a snake as a plaything, I'll beat you to death!"
