Chapter 211

Qin Su said weakly, "I don't want to live in the Dragon Palace, no need to look for it."

Ye Yan said, "But..."

"No buts." Qin Su interrupted him, quickly changing the subject, "Honey, I'm hungry. Let's go out to get something to eat. Do you want to go out?"

Ye Yan was stunned by the word "husband," his thoughts interrupted, and he nodded.

Qin Su breathed a sigh of relief.

While I can understand that Ye Yan will change after becoming a dragon, living in a dragon palace is out of the question.

Before leaving the house, Ye Yan picked up his clothes and asked Qin Su for permission: "We need to wear matching outfits today."

After he transformed into human form and learned to shop online, the first thing he did was buy a bunch of matching couple items, from slippers and pajamas to water cups and bowls, nothing was missing.

Qin Su had no objection: "Okay."

She thought the matter was over, but she underestimated Ye Yan's fondness for the new title.

When ordering at the restaurant, the waiter handed Qin Su and Ye Yan two tablets and said, "Sir, Madam, all the dishes in our restaurant are here."

Ye Yan, holding the tablet, said to the waiter, "I am her husband."

waiter:"?"

He hesitated and said, "Sir, our restaurant does not currently offer couple's套餐 (set meals). If you are interested in this, I can make a note of this suggestion."

Ye Yan looked at him without saying anything.

The waiter hesitated for a moment, then, drawing on his experience dealing with countless strange customers, he tried to change his tone: "This lady, and this lady's husband?"

Qin Su silently raised the tablet to cover her face.

Ye Yan was satisfied and even gave him a tip when he left.

...

On my way to pick up my car after dinner, I encountered someone promoting a newly opened gym.

A well-built young man glanced at Qin Su with admiration a few times while eagerly handing her a flyer: "Handsome guys and beautiful girls, you can take a look. We're a newly opened store, and the set meals are very affordable."

Ye Yan stopped and asked with a serious expression, "How did you know I was her husband?"

The boy handing out flyers: "?"

What? This beautiful woman in front of me is already married?

He was bewildered and said, "I don't know."

Ye Yan returned his flyer to him, saying casually, "Oh, so now you know."

Boy: "..."

Qin Su: "..."

Fortunately, no one approached them after that, so Ye Yan had no chance to show off his honorary titles to others.

Qin Su stepped onto the green path in the community, thinking that perhaps she should stay home for the next few days and wait until Ye Yan's novelty wore off.

An elderly couple walked towards the intersection ahead. The husband, with a full head of white hair, was sitting in a wheelchair, and his wife was pushing him slowly. There was a stone slab at the intersection that was not very smooth, and the wheelchair tilted to the side when it turned.

Ye Yan reacted quickly, grabbing the armrests of the wheelchair and stabilizing the person.

The old lady quickly thanked him and then asked her husband, "Old Gong, are you alright?"

Before the old man in the wheelchair could speak, the keyword triggered Ye Yan.

"Um?"

As Qin Susheng had a bad feeling, Ye Yan spoke up naturally: "You also call your husband 'husband'? My wife calls me 'husband' too."

Qin Su: "..."

Calm down, calm down. What kind of situation hasn't she seen?

—Although I've never seen this scene before.

But she calmly told herself that as long as she wasn't embarrassed, it was definitely others who would be embarrassed.

The old lady was genuinely embarrassed and didn't have time to ponder Ye Yan's ridiculous remark for a moment. She explained, "No, my old man's surname is Gong, the Gong in 'dragon above, co-owner below'."

People of their age and generation would be too embarrassed to use terms like "husband" and "wife" that are used by younger people.

Ye Yan also explained, "Then we are different. I am my wife's husband."

The old woman stared blankly and said, "Huh? Oh... I see."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Qin Su and Ye Yan from left to right, and suddenly realized, "You two are a newlywed couple, right?"

Ye Yan, who hadn't actually gotten married in this world yet but considered himself no less fortunate than someone who was married, proudly declared, "This is the new identity I just acquired today."

The old lady mistakenly thought he meant that the two of them had gotten their marriage certificate today, and laughed, "Then congratulations! Oh my, you two are so good-looking. I've never seen such a beautiful newlywed couple before. You look so well-matched."

Ye Yan was overjoyed and, not knowing the meaning of humility, readily agreed: "That's right, I think so too."

"A good relationship makes life smoother." The old lady didn't mind his unusual reaction at all, and gave him a kind and benevolent blessing, "I hope you can support each other all the way, live peacefully and happily until old age."

Ye Yan answered earnestly, "We will."

Qin Su glanced at his defiant attitude, then at the elderly woman who wasn't in good health, and was amazed that the two of them had managed to get to this point in their conversation.

She gave a helpless smile, took out two pieces of milk candy that she had originally used to feed Xiaolong from her pocket, and handed them to the old lady: "These are for you... consider them wedding candy."

After all, there aren't many people as understanding and supportive as the other party.

The old lady accepted it with a smile: "Thank you, you've brought some joy to this old woman and her husband."

Instead of simply putting them away, she unwrapped the candies in front of the two of them, gave one to her husband in the wheelchair, and ate one herself.

As people age, their physical functions gradually weaken, and they inevitably develop various ailments.

The old lady felt soreness in her lower back and legs, and her stomach was not very comfortable when she went downstairs. She also felt heavy when walking.

However, after the candy completely melted in her mouth, a gentle breeze blew by, and she was surprised to find that her whole body was warm and comfortable, her discomfort almost disappeared, and she felt a lightness in her movements that she hadn't felt in many years.

"Old Gong, I feel like I've suddenly perked up."

"Strange, why do I suddenly feel energetic?"

She and her husband said it in unison.

As soon as the words were spoken, the two looked at each other in bewilderment.

If they weren't both experiencing the same illusion, then...

The old woman subconsciously turned around and looked at the young couple who had long since disappeared from sight. Thinking of their extraordinary appearance, she murmured, "Those two candies..."

...

Ye Yan followed Qin Su into the house and complained, "The candy you just gave out was clearly for me."

"She already sent us her blessings, so let's give her a gift in return." Qin Su went to the bedroom to change her clothes, and Ye Yan followed her in like a little shadow.

Qin Su held the door open, raised her chin, and gestured for Ye Yan to leave.

Ye Yan blinked: "I want to change too."

Qin Su said coldly, "Wait until I'm done changing before you change."

Ye Yan: "You gave the candy I gave you to someone else, and then you locked me out, you..."

"Chirp," Qin Su kissed him, successfully interrupting his attempt to play the victim.

Ye Yan pursed his lips and remained silent, but still stood there blocking the door.

Qin Su: "Husband~"

Ye Yan's Adam's apple bobbed, and he obediently turned around and went back to the living room to wait.
