My Demon Husband Is a Snake

"When did you notice?"

Yu Longting's attention had also been drawn to Qing Li, his tone filled with mockery and disdain, "Since you started inexplicably caring about whether the dumbass lives or dies, I felt something was off about you."

It turned out, when he saw Qing Li knew Yu Rongling had been poisoned by corpse poison, her attitude suddenly changed.

When the tight-lipped story turned into spilling everything she knew like pouring beans, Yu Longting and I both doubted Qing Li.

"Moreover, although you always wore a mask when you were young and your voice changed after reincarnation, I still remember the scent of your Soul Spirit."

Yu Longting clicked his tongue, his voice hollow as he continued.

The depths of his eyes showed a kind of prodigal who saw through everything, seemingly indifferent but seemingly eager to grasp onto something firmly.

Qing Li, having exhausted almost all her Spiritual Power while combating the Dragon Fire, staggered back a few steps, weakly collapsing to the ground, "So you let me out because you wanted to sense my Soul Spirit nearby."

"So what if that's the case? If it weren't for Su Wan, you would already be dead." Yu Longting seemed to have given up on treatment, not bothering to defend himself.

It was like a needle prick to my heart, causing a twinge of pain.

Is Qing Li Yu Longting's biological mother? Is he also a Human-Snake Hybrid? But why do I not feel any trace of the Human Race's aura on Yu Longting...

Since the woman before me is Yu Longting's mother, while she's completely lucid.

Why would she pretend to be Yu Longting's lover, deceiving everyone and framing Xintang as Yu Longting's daughter?

Hey, seems like something's wrong here!!

Speaking of which, Xintang... is Yu Longting's biological sister?

"Yu Longting, how could you be cruel to me!!"

Qing Li shifted from a cold, superior lady to a girl-next-door style, pouting and shedding tears, "Even though you recognized me, you still wanted to kill me, and even burned my hair. Woo woo woo..."

She was naturally beautiful, and her eyes grew even rounder when she accused him.

Crying with tears streaming down her face, she looked pitiable.

That overwhelming sentiment, really resembled Yu Er so much; I hadn't realized it before...

"After all, you're going to die when you turn forty, dying earlier will let you reincarnate sooner, I'm helping you." Yu Longting seemed to have realized something, chuckling lowly with a charm that was breathtakingly beautiful.

It's simply heartbreaking, big brother, are you alright?!

If you're insane, go see a doctor, you make matricide sound so reasonable.

Alas, definitely a dark, twisted character.

But for some reason, I just can't bring myself to dislike or be afraid of him.

Qing Li sniffed, crying even harder, "Wah wah baby~ help a head, you're just... just smitten by Su Wan!! You find me inconvenient, so you want to kick away this stumbling block."

"Oh, so you know you're a nuisance? Originally..."

Yu Longting walked over, very "filially" helping Qing Li up and seating her on a stone bench, "I wanted to be more subtle, not to tear that veil and let both of us preserve some dignity. You should thank Su Wan, without her you'd already be dead. Better roll back to the Lin Family, otherwise next time, even Su Wan won't be able to save you..."

"Yu Longting, don't let her go yet, ask her why she wants to kill me, and why she concocted such an outrageous scheme to frame you. Is it... that she's unsatisfied with me as her daughter-in-law...?"

I found myself in a particularly awkward situation, unable to define my feelings toward Qing Li; wanting to get close, yet our relationship seemed to be at loggerheads.

Yu Longting sighed, glancing back at me deeply, "Are you dumb, isn't it obvious why? Why still ask?"
