Chapter 1358: Only children are afraid of snakes, I want them all!
Lin Lang's fingertips caressed the cheek that Xiao Qing had kissed, the slightly cool touch still seeming to carry the lingering warmth of her demonic aura.
He gazed at the beautiful, expectant faces of the blue and white snake demon sisters before him, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly, before finally succumbing to their allure.
"Fine, fine, I'm really tired of you two troublesome little devils."
Lin Lang feigned helplessness, raised his hand, and gently stroked Bai Suzhen's pert nose, his doting tone impossible to conceal.
Xiaoqing immediately cheered and hugged Lin Lang like a leaping little snake, giggling, "I knew Young Master Lin was the best! From now on, I'll be Young Master's Little Qing Auntie!"
Bai Suzhen was still nestled in Lin Lang's arms, her cheeks still flushed, her voice so gentle it could melt hearts:
"Thank you for not abandoning me, Young Master Lin. I am willing to follow you for the rest of my life and never leave you."
Lin Lang felt the softness and coolness of the beautiful snakes in his arms, and smelled their unique, alluring sweet fragrance. A smile unconsciously appeared on his lips.
Although she said she was "being taken advantage of," she was secretly overjoyed.
He gently embraced the green and white snake demon sisters and whispered, "Since you are so persistent, then I will reluctantly accept you two clingy snake spirits."
Even so, he tightened his arms around them, pulling the two peerless snake spirits into his embrace.
"Thank you for your kindness, young master," Bai Suzhen looked up at Lin Lang, her eyes filled with tenderness.
"I will certainly keep to my duty and serve you alongside Xiaoqing, and I will never cause you any trouble."
Xiaoqing was overjoyed to hear this; her eyes sparkled, and she felt incredibly happy!
Her snake tail had somehow gently wrapped around Lin Lang's calf. The cool touch came through the fabric, but strangely, it didn't feel repulsive; instead, it carried a hint of intimacy.
Lin Lang deliberately put on a stern face, but his tone was tinged with amusement, "You all better remember this: you're not allowed to reveal your true forms so easily as before. Modern people would be terrified if they saw you like that, understand?"
"Okay, okay! I'll definitely be a good girl from now on." Xiaoqing immediately sat up straight, her bright, lively eyes sparkling.
As she spoke, she didn't forget to wag her tail proudly, the blue skirt swaying gently with her movements, adding a touch of charming naivety.
Bai Suzhen nodded gently, her eyes full of seriousness: "Young master, rest assured, Xiaoqing and I have cultivated for a thousand years and have long since learned to conceal our demonic aura."
“In the future, we sisters will definitely accompany you as ordinary women, respect our elders, live in harmony with our sisters, and never cause trouble.”
Her voice was gentle and melodious, like a spring breeze caressing the surface of a lake, making people unconsciously convinced.
Looking at Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing's joyful expressions, Lin Lang felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction welling up in his heart.
He never imagined that he would have two more snake demon beauties who had cultivated for a thousand years to accompany him.
Such good fortune is probably unmatched by many throughout history.
He raised his hand and ruffled Xiaoqing's hair, then pinched Bai Suzhen's cheek, and said with a smile, "Since that's the case, then I'll prepare an elegant residence for you, where you can come and go as you please."
"Great!" Xiaoqing cheered, and kissed Lin Lang on the cheek again. This time the kiss was even more passionate, filled with undisguised joy.
"Young master, you are so kind! I will serve you well from now on and make you happy every day!"
The shyness in Bai Suzhen's eyes gradually turned into deep affection.
She leaned gently on Lin Lang's shoulder, feeling the warmth of his chest, and thought to herself: After a thousand years of cultivation, I finally met someone I could entrust my life to.
Even though the world says that humans and demons are destined to be apart, and even though he has many wives and concubines around him, she would rather abandon the path of immortality and sink into the mortal world than be with Lin Lang.
Lin Lang felt the softness on his shoulder and the warmth in his arms, and the smile on his lips deepened.
Just then, a soft groan came from the bedroom, coming from Zhao Liying on the bed!
The system notified Zhao Liying that she was about to wake up from her slumber.
Lin Lang made a shushing gesture and whispered:
"My girlfriend Zhao Liying has woken up. You guys quickly cast your spells and go outside for a stroll to see modern society. I'll come find you later."
After saying that, Lin Lang took out a wad of cash from his personal space and stuffed it into Bai Suzhen's hand, instructing her, "This is modern paper money. Buy whatever you want to eat when you see it."
After taking the money, Bai Suzhen couldn't help but peck at Lin Lang's lips. Then, like a snake that had stolen some fish, she released Lin Lang and gave Xiaoqing a wink.
Xiaoqing gave Lin Lang a quick kiss on the cheek before reluctantly letting go of him.
Immediately afterwards, Bai Suzhen took Xiaoqing's hand, cast a spell, and with a "whoosh," instantly teleported away from the living room and disappeared.
Lin Lang finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two entangled snake spirits vanish into thin air.
He rushed back to the bedroom and saw Zhao Liying lying on the bed, her eyelashes trembling slightly, her brows furrowed as if she were having a nightmare.
Lin Lang quickly sat down on the edge of the bed and gently patted her cheek. "Wife, wife, wake up!"
Zhao Liying's eyelashes trembled suddenly, and she slowly opened her eyes, her vision still somewhat blurry.
Upon seeing Lin Lang standing by the bed, she sat up abruptly, threw herself into his arms, and cried out:
"Honey, I just had a nightmare. I dreamt that two big snakes were wrapped around your body. It scared me to death."
Lin Lang quickly tightened his arms, holding the trembling girl in his arms even tighter. He gently stroked her back with his hands and coaxed her tenderly, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
"Silly wife, it's just a nightmare, it's all fake."
He lowered his head and kissed Zhao Liying's sweat-dampened forehead, gently wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fingertips, his tone full of heartache:
"Look, I'm right here. With your husband here, no one can hurt you."
Zhao Liying hugged Lin Lang tightly, burying her face in his chest. Listening to his steady heartbeat, her tense body relaxed a little.
Her voice was still filled with lingering fear, and she spoke with a sob in her voice:
"But honey, that dream felt so real!"
"I remember it clearly, there was a large, snow-white snake and a green snake, both wrapped around you."
That terrifying green snake was still flicking its tongue at me, its icy breath seeming to hit my face…
As she spoke, she couldn't help but shiver again.
She tightened her grip on Lin Lang's arm, as if that could dispel the fear that had seeped into her very bones.
Lin Lang comforted her, feeling both heartache and self-reproach: "Don't be afraid, baby. The nightmare is over. Be good, don't be afraid."
Zhao Liying raised her head with a pitiful look, her eyes full of deep emotion, and said with lingering fear:
"Honey, I was so scared! I was afraid you'd get eaten by those two giant snakes."
Lin Lang raised his hand and gently patted Zhao Liying's back, his voice becoming increasingly soft:
"Silly wife, my life is tougher than Sun Wukong's birth chart. I won't die even if the earth is destroyed."
"Hehe..." Zhao Liying looked into Lin Lang's gentle eyes, and finally a smile appeared on her face. The fear in her heart was gradually dispelled by the warmth.
Lin Lang lowered his head and nuzzled Zhao Liying's cheek with the tip of his nose, his tone both teasing and full of affection: "Silly girl, are you that worried about me?"
Zhao Liying snuggled closer to Lin Lang, her voice soft and sweet as she coaxed him:
"Honey, you are my everything, how could I not be worried about you?"
Lin Lang reached out and pinched Zhao Liying's soft cheek, continuing to coax her:
"Okay! Honey, I know you love me the most. You woke up this morning, what would you like for breakfast?"
"Honey, I'm craving 'Langfang' style Xianghe meat pie and donkey offal soup. I haven't had them in ages. Do any breakfast shops nearby sell them?"
Lin Lang chuckled and said indulgently, "Yes, you get up and wash up first. I'll go downstairs and buy you Xianghe meat pies and donkey offal soup."
"Really? Won't that be too much trouble for you, honey?" Zhao Liying playfully stuck out her tongue.
Seeing a tongue sticking out would reflexively remind Lin Lang of Xiao Qing's snake-like forked tongue, and he said gently:
"No trouble at all, since you're my most beloved little wife!"
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble you, my darling husband!"
“I was so scared by my nightmare that I broke out in a sweat. I’ll take a shower while you go to buy me breakfast, honey.”
"Go ahead, baby." Lin Lang looked at Zhao Liying's slightly pouting lips, which were as soft and pink as ripe cherries, making her both charming and lovable.
He couldn't help but lean down and kiss her.
The moment their lips touched, it was as light as a feather brushing across a lake, creating gentle ripples.
Lin Lang's kiss was gentle and light, lightly touching Zhao Liying's lips, as if to soothe her frightened heart, and as if to express the deep affection hidden in his eyes.
Zhao Liying's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her nose brushed against Lin Lang's warm skin. The lingering fear in her heart was instantly enveloped by this sudden tenderness.
She tilted her head slightly and subconsciously moved closer to Lin Lang. Her lips were soft and sweet, and they warmed under his touch.
Lin Lang gently placed his palm on the back of Zhao Liying's neck, his movements so tender.
The kiss deepened slightly, no longer just a fleeting touch, but filled with tender affection, carefully tracing the contours of her lips.
Their breaths mingled, filling the air with each other's scent.
A blush rose on Zhao Liying's cheeks, spreading from her ears to her neck. The grievance in her eyes gradually faded, replaced by a look of dependence and sweetness.
She closed her eyes slightly, the corners of her lips unconsciously turning upwards. She gently wrapped her arms around Lin Lang's waist, buried her face in his chest, and felt his steady and powerful heartbeat. The sound of his heartbeat was like a calming pill, completely putting her at ease.
A moment later, Lin Lang slowly stepped back, his forehead touching Zhao Liying's, their noses rubbing together, his warm breath brushing against her face, accompanied by a soft chuckle.
"My dear wife, are you scared now?"
Zhao Liying blushed and looked up at Lin Lang, her eyes shining like starlight, a sweet smile on her lips.
"Yeah, I'm not afraid anymore. With my husband by my side, I'm not afraid of anything."
She playfully returned Lin Lang's kiss, a light but tender kiss, like a soft, sweet candy melting in their hearts, leaving a lingering sweetness.
Lin Lang gently pinched Zhao Liying's plump, collagen-rich cheeks and coaxed, "Go wash up quickly, I'll go buy you a breakfast with a hometown flavor."
"Okay! Hehe..." Zhao Liying smiled sweetly, got out of bed, and walked happily towards the bathroom.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Lang summoned an invisible clone.
The clone used the [Space-Time Mass Teleportation] skill to travel to Zhao Liying's hometown to buy authentic Xianghe meat pie and donkey offal soup for breakfast.
After the clone "whooshed" away, the virtual system screen in front of Lin Lang suddenly displayed the real-time video of Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing's [Shared Vision].
From Xiaoqing's perspective in the video frame, you can see the breeze blowing through Bai Suzhen's long hair, making her, standing on the bustling streets of Shanghai, exude a lively and ethereal "snake fairy" aura.
Bai Suzhen held a cup of Häagen-Dazs original ice cream in her hand, her jade fingers gently pinching the small spoon to slowly scoop out and taste it. The cool sweetness melted on her tongue, and her eyebrows and eyes were gentle with a faint smile.
From Bai Suzhen's perspective in the video frame, you can see Xiaoqing holding a strawberry-flavored ice cream cone, taking a big bite of the ice cream, squinting at the coolness but immediately smiling, and mumbling:
"Sister, try this ice cream, it's delicious!"
This cool, sweet treat is even smoother and creamier than the shaved ice from the fairy mountains—the texture is simply divine!
Bai Suzhen took a small sip and smiled gently, "Xiaoqing, your strawberry ice cream is delicious too!"
Xiaoqing took another big bite, not even bothering to wipe the ice cream smeared on her lips, her eyes sparkling: "The Xia Dynasty's mortal-style cold dishes are so well-made! They're sweet but not cloying at all, and the strawberry flavor is so strong!"
Bai Suzhen elegantly ate her Häagen-Dazs with a small spoon, looking at Xiaoqing and saying:
"Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you."
"Young Master Lin gave us so much money. We'll buy you more ice cream later after we finish ours."
Xiaoqing chuckled, then noticed that she and Bai Suzhen were attracting a lot of attention, and couldn't help but feel a little guilty as she whispered:
"Sister, everyone's staring at us. Have they realized we're snake demons?"
