My Demon Husband Is a Snake

"A goose!?" I exclaimed.

Yu Rongling completely flipped out and jumped onto the table. "Damn, do you not know that snakes are most afraid of geese?"

"I know, I'm sorry, I scared you." I apologized to the wildly agitated Yu Rongling.

Yu Rongling got even more furious and stamped his foot. "Then why the hell did you bring it back? Do you have a problem with me? Sister-in-law, my dear sister-in-law, I have been nothing but loyal to you, heaven and earth can bear witness!!"

"That's not it. Your brother is also afraid of snakes, he wanted to keep one for desensitization."

I explained to Yu Rongling.

Yu Rongling jumped down from the table, swaying over to the icy-faced Longting, "My brother is afraid of geese? Sister-in-law, you must be joking."

"Aren't all you snakes afraid of geese?" I was a bit confused by what Yu Rongling meant.

Yu Rongling raised an eyebrow and scanned his brother's face with a look of seeing through a scheme. "I'm just a little snake, naturally, I'm afraid of geese, but a goose can't hurt me.

My brother has killed so many goose-keeping snake-catching Taoists before, if my brother was afraid of geese, I'd swallow this goose in front of me whole!"

"Uh... I believe you. Your curse has a credibility to it," I twitched the corner of my mouth.

Yu Rongling smirked, "Bro, this is where you went wrong. Why would you lie to your sister-in-law for no good reason?"

"Exactly, Longting, why did you lie to me?" I angrily looked at Longting.

Yu Rongling was overjoyed, almost setting off firecrackers to celebrate, and exclaimed excitedly, "Hahaha, brother and sister-in-law are going to argue! That's what you get for flaunting your love! Serve you right! Torturing us single dogs every day, finally, it's come back to bite you."

Longting's handsome face was full of helplessness; he stretched out his arms and gently hugged me, "Wanwan, I just wanted you to care for me more, to pay more attention to me. I feel very insecure. After all, I'm so old and not human, it would be easy for you to dislike or be afraid of me."

"If you want me to care more, just tell me directly, you don't need to pretend to be afraid of anything." I patted Longting's lean back. "Whatever I can do to make you happy, I will."

Yu Rongling stood in front of me, his handsome face seemingly split open from the middle with a long crack, a look of complete collapse on his face.

I just don't get it. Why does this guy so hope that I would argue with his brother?

Hasn't he changed his opinion of me after what happened last time, pledging his loyalty without looking back? Why is he still up to no good?

"Wuwuwu... This familiar dog food recipe! You are torturing single dogs again..." Yu Rongling cried with his head in his hands. "Not giving anyone else a chance to live."

Longting carried me upstairs, "Wanwan, let's ignore that troublemaking little brother. Granny Wu's place isn't convenient for bathing or washing hair, let me wash your hair."

"Wait a second, what about this goose? Aren't we taking it?" Yu Rongling shouted from behind us.

Upstairs, after Longting helped me wash my hair, he was drying my wet hair with a dry towel,

"Wanwan, I need to leave for a while."

"Oh, do you have some matters to attend to, or are you going into solitary cultivation again?"

"Wanwan, I dare not say for fear that you might overthink. Can I tell you after I accomplish it? I would never harm you; I can do anything for you..." Longting leaned in, his cool breath sweeping across my face.

Doing something that might make me overthink...

I suddenly reacted, "Is it related to my dad making something involving me? My existence... isn't it just to serve as a vessel for Xuanjing's wife, to contain her soul?"

"You are now my wife, the darling dear to my heart. Xuanjing's wife means nothing, let them dare to touch a single hair of yours and see, they have miscalculated." Longting gently pushed me down onto the bed and kissed me, "Wanwan, Su Chongwen has deceived us all, the enemy's enemy is our friend, there are no opposing sides anymore."

"..." When I heard the truth, it was hard to accept at the moment, but I would not doubt Longting, he would never deceive me about anything.

I gradually calmed down and kissed Longting back, "I have only one request, and you must fulfill it; do not put yourself in danger for me! If you encounter any dangerous situation, abandon it immediately, okay?"

"Okay, I agree, Wanwan, you're like a goblin, your kiss... my heart is in the palm of your hand, I need you to take responsibility."

Yu Longting's long fingers were on my button, his voice hoarse to the extreme, suppressed to the extreme, "Can you? Now, help me... Wanwan, is that okay?"

My kissing skills were clumsy, inexperienced, and awkwardly laughable.

Only Yu Longting felt an insatiable desire.

I remained silent, my hand resting on his collar...

Outside the window, the next downpour began.

When I woke up, someone had firmly closed the window, so no rain splashed in from outside.

The curtains were also tightly drawn, making the room dimly lit.

Yet, there lingered a faint, sweet scent of post-joy, comforting to the soul.

Every word Yu Longting had said before he left echoed in my ears at this moment.

I finally had a single room, fulfilling his wish.

The room now had his scent.

I remembered what my mom had said about accumulating Yin Virtue by doing good deeds, which could help Yu Longting heal and cultivate.

I tried to channel Spiritual Power into Yu Longting's true body on the cheongsam, and for a moment, my Spiritual Power surged continuously.

It quickly drained half my body, and then I could no longer continue to inject Spiritual Power.

Having my Spiritual Power drained actually made me feel good, "I wonder if it's because I helped Granny Wu and Wu Zhenglin, or because I helped that middle-aged aunt on the road, that I could inject so much Spiritual Power into Yu Longting."

At least it proved my mom did not deceive me, this was the correct way to maintain the cheongsam, should I start finding my own work?

Trying to help more people...

The room felt a bit stuffy.

After opening the curtains, I noticed the rain had lessened quite a bit.

I opened the window to ventilate, but unexpectedly discovered a furry head.

I stepped back half a step in fright, "Are you trying to scare me to death, Yu Rongling! What are you hiding outside the window for?"

"Of course, to gossip, haha~ Too bad, my brother even put up a Barrier around the room, he's really cautious! Eh? What smells so delicious, is it iron pot stewed goose!" Yu Rongling very unceremoniously climbed in and then, like a foodie radar, found the goose meat in the lunchbox.

I explained to him, "This is a goose we bought in the countryside, Granny Wu said she could cook it, so she made a pot, and because we couldn't finish it, we brought it back."

The two geese were quite expensive, so naturally, the leftover meat had to be packed and brought back.

None of us are rich enough to be wasteful.

"Sister-in-law, you and my brother have already eaten, could you give me these few pieces of goose meat, look at me, thin as a rake, I just need some meat to nourish myself."

Yu Rongling shamelessly begged for the food, his gentle pleading look giving me goosebumps all over.

I felt a bit helpless, "Aren't you afraid of geese?"

"Aren't you afraid of crocodiles? If a crocodile is cooked into a dish, would you be scared?" Yu Rongling retorted.
