My Demon Husband Is a Snake

Surrounded by the terrible low air pressure emanating from Yu Longting, Xiao Shenshen wailed, "Wuwu... I really didn't lie, he is very strong..."

"Yu Longting, stop scaring Xiao Shenshen. Give him to me to hold."

I put my hands together in prayer, earnestly trying to charm my way out, "He's so cute, you definitely can't bear to bully him."

"Cuter than you?" Yu Longting turned his head away, giving me a deep look.

Without giving Yu Longting a chance to react, I snatched Xiao Shenshen from his hands and ran, burrowing into the canopy boat, "Then for my sake, be a bit nicer to Shenshen."

"Wife, aside from me, you're actually holding someone else?" Yu Longting followed in with a dark face, filling the cabin with the smell of jealousy.

Once he sat down, I pushed Xiao Shenshen into Yu Longting's arms, "But Yu Longting, I... prefer being held by you. Can you fulfill this little wish of mine?"

"You little thing, really... getting more and more... naughty."

Dusk enveloped the town as we approached the courtyard gate.

Intending to surprise Xiao Li and Beichen, Yu Longting and I happened to bump into Beichen just as he was about to leave.

"Snake Lord, Lady of the Snake Lord?" The usually calm Beichen's face now bore an expression of surprise as if he had just experienced an earthquake, "You... how... never mind, it's good that the Lady of the Snake Lord is okay."

The days I took Xiao Li's place in Barbarian Village must have really worried this young couple.

However, at this moment, my greater concern was...

"Is Xiao Li safe now?" My first words upon seeing him were to urgently inquire about Xiao Li's condition.

Beichen nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, she heeded your advice and safely escaped from the Corpse-Driving Inn and met up with me."

"And the Ice Silkworm? Did you find it?"

My second concern was about the whereabouts of the Ice Silkworm.

Beichen's complexion suddenly turned ashen.

I panicked immediately, "You didn't find it?"

The child who snatched the Ice Silkworm was from Barbarian Village.

Even if he ran, it's the case of the monk may run away, but the temple can't run with him.

If need be, I would return to Barbarian Village again, and at all costs retrieve the Ice Silkworm.

"We found it, but it was kidnapped by an old man." There was an indescribable expression on Beichen's face.

I was completely baffled by Beichen's words, "If the Ice Silkworm Gu was stolen, then it was stolen, why... use the word 'kidnapped'?"

"Ah, just follow me." Beichen sighed, taking the lead to show us the way.

Arriving at a bustling street, Yu Longting squinted irritably, "There's a stench of a nosy old ox."

"It's obviously the scent of pure Yang and supreme righteousness. What do you mean stench?"

I stroked the small head of Xiao Shenshen, who was sleeping in my arms, full of disagreement, "I have this scent on me."

Yu Longting patted the top of my head, hypocritically saying, "Mhm, on you it's a fragrance, on that busybody, it's a stench."

Me: "..."

"Miss Xiao Li,"

Sitting in front of a noodle shop, the white-haired elderly man grasped a brightly colored lollipop, "I want to eat that, go get it for me, it looks really tasty."

The old man's gaze fell on a small girl passing by, holding her mother's hand, and a cotton candy in her hand.

The cotton candy was colorful, fashioned into the cute shape of SpongeBob.

Xiao Li, exasperated: "..."

She walked up to the mother and daughter awkwardly, managing a strained, insincere smile, "Excuse me, I hate to bother you, but could you please tell me where I can buy that cotton candy?"

"Her father made it for her," the girl's mother replied.
