Who Said My Wife Is A Demon!

The two of them made their way to Clear Moon Pavilion to retrieve the account books, stopping along the way to purchase quite a few things. As the sun began to set, they retraced their steps back to the Luo Mansion.

“Let’s part ways here,” Tan Xiang stopped in front of the Luo Mansion, casting a sidelong glance. “It’s best for you to stay at home more in the recent days. After all, Xiang Tianlin is still at large, and his whereabouts are unpredictable.”

Yang Shifei nodded slightly. “Don’t worry, if nothing comes up, I’ll be at home practicing.”

Tan Xiang fell silent for a moment before abruptly saying, “Meals will continue to be delivered.”

With that, the maid turned and walked into the Luo Mansion, gently closing the door behind her.

Yang Shifei couldn’t help but smile.

Although her attitude was still cold, her heart was warm.

…

Before long, Yang Shifei returned home.

He placed the newly bought bedding inside the house and was pondering which guest room to sleep in tonight when his shoulder was suddenly tapped.

Yang Shifei quickly turned around, meeting the bright smile in Yue Rui’s sparkling eyes.

“You’ve been out for a long time.”

“Mostly wandering around the city today.” Yang Shifei smiled with interest. “And what about you? Didn’t go back to sleep?”

This was the first time since he had known her.

Looking at the little woman who had changed into a new dress today, her pure white gauze skirt accentuated her slender figure, with her snow-white shoulders slightly exposed. With a hint of curvature beneath the exquisite collarbone, paired with her flawless and delicate face, she looked truly adorable.

“I didn’t feel like sleeping,” Yue Rui shook her little head, the small tuft of hair on her head swaying along. “Couldn’t fall asleep today.”

“You’re having trouble sleeping at your age?” Yang Shifei laughed for a moment. “Why’s that?”

This girl slept all day long and liked to look at the moon when she was awake. Her mind was clear and pure. He didn’t expect her to have any worries.

“Because you weren’t here.”

“…”

“Really?”

“Mm.”

The girl’s straightforward words made Yang Shifei’s smile stiffen. Facing her direct gaze, he inexplicably felt as if he had done something unfaithful.

“Uh, I’ve been out and about before, why would today be uncomfortable?”

“…It’s different.”

Yue Rui tugged at her skirt, her head slightly lowered.

Originally, she didn’t care.

As long as she could stay here and sleep peacefully every day, practice ‘dual cultivation’ with Yang Shifei before bed, and occasionally eat something delicious, she would be content.

But last night she had eavesdropped for a long time. Although she couldn’t understand what was so fun about rubbing lips together, listening to the strange noises coming from the room continuously, a hint of displeasure gradually welled up in her heart, inexplicably feeling a little annoyed.

Of course, she didn’t act out of petulance, nor did she stop Yang Shifei from going out today. She just couldn’t help but…

“What’s wrong?” Yang Shifei bent slightly, half-jokingly. “Is it because I’m not at home, so it’s a bit lonely and desolate?”

Yue Rui suddenly leaned closer, leaning in front of him and sniffing, as if smelling something.

Yang Shifei quickly raised his sleeve and smelled himself. There shouldn’t be any strange smell.

“What’s wrong?”

“The smell of a woman.” Yue Rui’s face puffed up, muttering, “It’s that woman again.”

Yang Shifei: “…”

This nose is really sensitive, like a cat?

Yang Shifei smiled helplessly. “I work for the Luo family, and I’m Miss Luo’s fiancé. It’s normal to smell a bit of rouge and fragrance.”

With that, he held Yue Rui’s shoulders and walked out of the room together. “If you don’t feel like sleeping today, how about I make you dinner?”

“Great!” Yue Rui’s eyes lit up. “I want noodles, a little sour and spicy would be even better!”

Sure enough, it’s easy to please such a pure-minded girl. Her mood changes like the weather forecast.

Seeing her pure and bright smile, Yang Sifei couldn’t help but smile too.

“Okay, I’ll make noodles for you.”

The two of them happily went to the kitchen. As the smoke rose, a bowl of steaming hot noodles was soon served.

Yue Rui sat at the table holding chopsticks, her eyes shining like stars, her little feet swinging back and forth under the table, and her chubby legs peeked out from under her skirt.

Until a bowl of beef noodles was placed in front of her, she suddenly showed surprise. “So abundant!”

“Isn’t it?”

Yang Shifei wiped the soot off his sleeve, sitting across from her with a joyful expression. “We didn’t have much to eat at home before, but today I bought a lot of seasonings and ingredients, so the noodles I made naturally taste better. Just like the freshly rendered lard…”

Before he could finish introducing, Yue Rui put down her bowl with a satisfied face—inside, it was already empty.

With oil stains around her mouth and her cheeks slightly reddened from the spicy oil, she looked especially cute.

“So delicious!”

“As long as you enjoy it.”

Yang Shifei’s face relaxed slightly, feeling somewhat helpless.

The speed at which this girl eats is inexplicably fast. He really doesn’t know how her stomach can handle it.

But seeing her enjoy the meal so much, he also felt satisfied.

“Your lips are all oily, don’t forget to wipe them.”

“Umm, help me wipe them~”

Suddenly, Yue Rui rushed over, sitting obediently.

Her petite body leaned slightly forward, her cheeks blushing, her eyelashes half closed, looking as soft and submissive as a ripe fruit waiting to be picked.

“…”

Seeing the girl intentionally pouting her tender lips, Yang Shifei’s heart trembled, secretly reproaching himself. He couldn’t help but wonder, why did this girl seem particularly close to him today?

“Since when did you become like a child, asking me to help wipe your mouth?”

Yue Rui tilted her head, pointing to her lips. “Then, can I have a kiss?”

Yang Shifei quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe her mouth. “Don’t play around next time, I can’t handle these kinds of provocations.”

Yue Rui then let out a cute and innocent giggle, allowing him to wipe her face obediently.

But just as Yang Shifei was about to withdraw his hand, the girl grabbed his wrist.

“Ah…”

Her soft cherry lips suddenly wrapped around his index finger.

Yang Shifei’s breath hitched, his eyes widening involuntarily.

Yue Rui gently held his hand, lifting her moist eyes like a small animal, her lips gently moving.

Looking into the girl’s innocent eyes, Yang Shifei suddenly felt a dryness in his mouth, realizing for the first time that this girl, whom he had been living with for several days, actually had such a seductive and charming side, like a tempting little enchantress.

He soon felt as if his fingertips were being gently teased, as if scratching an itch in his heart.

“Wait, you…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Yang Shifei’s face contorted in pain.

A cold air suddenly rushed along his fingertips, familiar soreness and numbness spreading throughout his arm, completely waking him up from the romantic moment.

Damn, it turns out absorbing cold energy not only works with my own mouth, but also with the girl’s mouth?!

The circulation of cold energy only lasted a few breaths this time.

Glancing at Yang Shifei’s expression of lingering fear, Yue Rui couldn’t help but gently move her tongue, as if trying to soothe his pain.

“Okay, okay.”

Yang Shifei subtly withdrew his right hand.

When did he become so charming? Did this girl have such high feelings for him?

Could it be that she really sees him as a ‘dual cultivation partner’?

Yue Rui pursed her lips, her eyes full of a sly smile.

Seeing the girl’s cute and naughty appearance, Yang Shifei couldn’t help but reach out and touch her head.

“Are you satisfied now?”

“Mmm~” Yue Rui smiled sweetly. “You can go busy yourself now.”

Seeing Yang Shifei’s strange expression as he returned to the kitchen, Yue Rui’s smile faded slightly, but a blush rose on her cheeks instead.

“So this is the feeling.”

…

As the night grew late, a cold wind swept through.

Yang Shifei spent over an hour practicing the “Mountain Stepping Technique” alone in the courtyard, followed by several sets of “Triple Forest Crossing Technique”.

After sweating all over, he finally stopped his practice for the night with satisfaction.

Although he experienced a little ‘accident’ after returning home in the evening, as Yue Rui returned to her room to sleep, he calmed down and refocused his attention on his own cultivation.

In his opinion, now that he had the cheat physique of absorbing Murk, he naturally had to seize the opportunity to practice diligently.

Although the East City seemed calm now, there might be hidden storms brewing. And if he wanted to marry into the Luo family in the future, he would need to have the strength to protect himself. He couldn’t slack off relying solely on his talent.

Yang Shifei quickly washed up, changed his clothes, picked up the candle, and prepared to temporarily stay in the adjacent guest room for the night.

Walking through the quiet courtyard, he occasionally swung his arms and gestured, recalling the essence of the “Mountain Stepping Technique” in his mind.

Although this martial art was for health and fitness, the more he pondered it, the more he could feel its subtlety, containing profound martial arts principles.

In comparison, “Triple Forest Crossing” seemed superficial, and only the techniques of exerting force were worth studying.

As he pondered, Yang Shifei pushed open the door and entered the room. After taking off his outer robe, he blew out the candle, turned around, and sat on the bed, rehearsing the martial arts techniques in his mind. Gradually, he became drowsy and fell asleep.

But in his dreams, he vaguely felt as if a soft and heavy object was pressing on him.

A sweet fragrance lingered in his nose, as if he was deeply immersed in a true gentle paradise. His neck was gently embraced, and he could faintly hear a sweet and sly giggle like that of a cat.

…

Before he knew it, the sunlight outside the window shone on the bed, bringing a hint of warmth.

Yang Shifei woke up as usual, feeling that he had slept comfortably and contentedly last night. He was about to roll out of bed when he suddenly froze.

“…”

He stared blankly at the figure lying on the left side of his bed, only to find a petite girl lying on her side, her sleeping gown slightly disheveled, looking very peaceful and quiet.

Yang Shifei almost thought he had made a drunken mistake and committed a big error. But upon second thought, he hadn’t drunk anything last night, and there was no one else in the room!

Upon closer inspection, he realized it was Yue Rui, who should have been sleeping in the adjacent room.

“When did this girl sneak over here?”

Confirming that both of them were fully clothed, Yang Shifei breathed a sigh of relief, although his face showed a hint of complexity.

Although this girl was mysterious, in the few days they had spent together, she had indeed been cute and adorable, making people can’t help but have a good impression of her.

“Rather than saying she came here to be a maid, it’s more like raising a cute little cat.”

Yang Shifei shook his head and chuckled to himself, carefully getting out of bed to tuck the girl back in.

After hastily changing clothes and leaving the room, he saw a graceful figure sitting in the courtyard, causing his heart to skip a beat.

“Miss Luo?”

Yue Rui was still lying in bed.

“Young Master, good morning.”

Luo Xian’er sat dignifiedly at the stone table, her waist-length hair swaying in the breeze.

Her fair complexion was still without makeup, but the blue and white porcelain flower dress she wore accentuated her otherworldly beauty.

Yang Shifei closed the door behind him. “Miss Luo, you’re here early today. Why didn’t you wake me up earlier?”

“Young Master, you’ve been diligently practicing martial arts recently and need to rest well.” Luo Xian’er gestured toward a bamboo basket beside her. “Tan Xiang has prepared breakfast for you today.”

“Oh, okay, I’ll go wash my face first.”

Yang Shifei ran to the well and fetched a bucket of water, then washed up properly.

“Young Master, there’s something I want to discuss.” Seeing him return after drying his face, Luo Xian’er whispered, “This matter is of great importance.”

Yang Shifei was about to pick up his chopsticks when he heard her, looking puzzled. “Is something unexpected happening in the city?”

“It’s not in the city.”

Luo Xian’er took out a letter from her sleeve. “According to a confidential letter from the Chief Constable, they have discovered the movements of Xiang Tianlin and the position of the enemy’s ambush.”
