Chapter 44 Jinjiang Exclusive Authorization First Release 24 Poked his lower back...
There was a lot of noise and clamor in front of the mansion.
Fearing that Su Can would not recognize his face, Yan Yi carefully hid behind the villain and did not dare to show up.
"I'm not a spy. It's really my cousin who invited me to your house. If you don't believe me, ask her. Cousin! Cousin! Please help me explain!"
Yan Yi stuck his head out following the sound, only to see Su Can being pinned to the ground by two guards, one on each side. All he could see was a pair of dark round eyes and a unique and outstanding wheat-colored skin.
This is not a way to treat guests at all; it's clearly treating Su Can as a spy.
"Your Majesty," Yan Yi bent his knuckles and poked the villain in the back, "He really is my cousin."
Wen Huoran looked down at the restrained male protagonist of the original book and said, "Let him go."
The Demon Realm guard let go of his hand, and Su Can was unable to react in time, falling to the ground with a face thatched roof.
He slowly got up, brushed off the dust on his body, looked around, and searched for Yan Yi in the crowd.
With his heart in his throat, Yan Yi half-hid behind the villain, but he didn't dare to show it too obviously for fear of being exposed.
Unexpectedly, Su Can accurately located her direction, took a few big strides to Yan Yi, and said happily: "Cousin, I haven't seen you for several months. I miss you very much."
The original book did not describe Canary's appearance in detail, but Su Can recognized her at a glance. The setting does automatically include the information of the person who traveled through the book.
Yan Yi felt relieved and smiled, "Cousin, how are you these days?"
Su Can was so happy that his face was beaming. Just as he was about to respond, he heard Xu Ran utter two words indifferently: "Go home."
After saying that, without waiting for anyone to respond, he turned and left.
With the permission of the villain, Yan Yi settled Su Can in the yard where she used to live.
After the explosion, Wen Huoran ordered people to renovate the yard, and it has been vacant ever since.
"Cousin, it's getting late. You should get some rest first. I'll come see you tomorrow."
Su Can smiled and waved at her, "Good night, cousin!"
Yan Yi nodded, turned around and walked out. When she reached the door, she suddenly remembered something, so she stopped and looked back at Su Can. Just as she was about to speak, she heard the villain's voice coming from outside the door -
"It's getting late, what are you still standing there for?"
"Your Majesty, I'll be there right away!" Yan Yi responded casually, and then forgot what he wanted to say to Su Can.
Su Can raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he realized something. He called Yan Yi abruptly and quickened his pace towards her.
"Cousin!" He called out deliberately, raising his voice. As he approached her, he caught a glimpse of Wen Huoran standing alone in the dim night. An idea suddenly struck him, and he lowered his voice and said, "My uncle asked me to tell my cousin—"
Wen Huoran held his breath and concentrated, his ears perked up.
Su Can looked at him silently, then retracted his gaze and looked at Yan Yi, "My uncle said that when he finds a good son-in-law, he will let you enter the Yan family."
Yan Yi was completely confused and didn't understand why his cousin suddenly brought this up.
Furthermore, the story of her old father forcing her to find a husband was clearly a fabrication she made up to deceive the villain. Unexpectedly, the male protagonist of the original book actually took it seriously.
"Cousin, please tell my dad that I'm not going back." Yan Yi said casually.
At this time, Wen Huiran had already come to Yan Yi's side, staring at Su Can with an ambiguous look, the smile on the corner of his lips was terrifying, "My dear cousin, Yan Yi's marriage, please don't bother with me."
Su Can raised his eyebrows, as if he didn't understand what he meant, and asked in a more serious tone, "Your Majesty, have you found a virtuous husband for your cousin?"
Wen Huoran's blood boiled, and he nearly fainted on the spot. But as a Demon Lord, ruling the Demon Realm, how could he be so discerning as to compare himself to a mere mortal cultivator? He snorted coldly, "General Bill and the rest of us are a thousand times better than mere mortals."
Yan Yi blinked and gradually saw clearly what was happening in front of him. It was a bit like a Shura field.
Su Can did not show any weakness and said confidently, "My uncle is a man with high standards. Not just any cat or dog can enter the Yan family. At the very least, he must be able to work in the living room and in the kitchen. He is proficient in poetry and songs, and he is also good at chopping wood in the mountains and carrying manure at the village entrance--"
Yan Yi nearly choked to death on her own saliva. What the hell was going on? Was her family in need of a farmhand to carry manure and do farm work?
Su Can's words hit the nail on the head and pierced Wen Huoran's heart.
Yan Yi once mentioned that men who can’t cook are not looked upon favorably in her hometown, and are not even in her father’s eyes.
"Marriage is a matter of mutual consent. Yan Yi can choose whoever he likes. Your uncle's words don't count."
The villain's tone was unkind. Yan Yi felt that he couldn't let the two of them argue any longer, so he quickly reached out and grabbed his sleeve, saying softly, "Your Majesty, it's getting late. Let's go back to the bedroom and rest!"
Wen Huiran continued to insist, "Your cousin has old-fashioned ideas and a stubborn temper. What he said is unacceptable."
Su Can became anxious upon hearing this and immediately retorted, "Your Majesty, when my cousin was still at home, she was an excellent doctor and a kind person, deeply loved by the villagers. Matchmakers came to our house every day to propose marriage, and they would even knock down the door. Fortunately, my uncle has high standards and is not someone that some unsightly people would covet."
Yan Yi's ears felt a little itchy. What Su Can said sounded quite familiar. Could it be that the other party had also read "The Ten Most Common Praise Quotes in Ancient and Modern Times"?
Wen Huoran's face changed. If he didn't have the title of Demon Lord, he would have beaten up this kid Su Can and thrown him out of the Demon Realm.
"If Yan Yi doesn't like him, what does it matter if he's the best? Besides, how do you know that the person Yan Yi loves isn't the best and the one who's the best match for her?"
Su Can blinked, inexplicably feeling that what the other party said made sense, and he almost nodded in agreement on the spot. Fortunately, he had a clear mind and always kept his purpose in mind.
"Your Majesty, do you know why my cousin ran away from home?" Since the hard approach didn't work, he decided to try the soft approach. By combining the hard and soft approaches, he could always find the Demon Lord's weak spot.
Wen Huoran certainly knew that Yan Yi had once cried to him, saying that her father forced her to marry and she had run away from the marriage.
The other party didn't respond, and Su Can couldn't help but feel proud. "My uncle has been very selective and finally found a good match for my cousin. The man is good at both housekeeping and cooking, chopping wood and carrying manure. He is a perfect match for my uncle's family. We are a perfect match—"
Before he could finish, Wen Huiran sneered and continued, "What a pity, Yan Yi doesn't like it."
"This..." Su Can smiled awkwardly and said to himself, "Cousin, my uncle has said that when you find a qualified husband, he will recognize you as his daughter."
The two of them were arguing back and forth, and Yan Yi's ears were almost callused from listening to them. When he suddenly heard these words, he blurted out -
"Cousin, please go back and tell my father that I don't want to get married, and I don't need a man who carries manure. I want to stay in the Demon Realm."
After hearing these words, Wen Huiran raised the corners of his lips slightly and felt relieved.
The next morning, just as the sky was getting light, Yan Yi woke up slowly with sleepy eyes. The little fox was lying on the windowsill, facing the window and meowing non-stop.
Yan Yi immediately became alert. Based on her previous experiences, her intuition told her that there was an uninvited guest outside the window.
The man and the cat worked together perfectly, just like they always did. Yan Yi pushed open the door, and Xiaoli jumped out of the window at the same time, knocking the person who was lingering in the yard to the ground.
"Your Majesty?" Yan Yi rubbed his sleepy eyes and hurriedly helped the person on the ground to his feet, thinking he was hallucinating. "You come to see me so early in the morning?"
Wen Huoran quietly rubbed his sore butt and said calmly, "Yesterday you said you wanted to move to my bedroom, so I came to pick you up."
Yan Yi rubbed his throbbing temples, as if he had just remembered something. "Your Majesty, why didn't you knock on the door? Did you fall?"
Wen Huiran waved his hand, looking a little uncomfortable. "I don't want to wake you up, so I'll just wait outside."
Yan Yi was a little dazed, perhaps because he hadn't woken up yet. He always felt that the villain's words and actions were strange, as if he was plotting something ulterior motive.
Although he had some concerns in his heart, Yan Yi simply packed his bags, picked up Xiaoli, and followed the villain to his bedroom.
As soon as I arrived at the bedroom and put down my luggage, I heard the guard outside the hall say, "Your Majesty, Master Su wishes to see Miss Yan."
Wen Huoran placed the bag in his hand heavily on the table with a dull sound, which fully expressed his inner displeasure.
Yan Yi was about to head for the bedroom door when he heard the villain raise his voice and say impatiently, "Send him away! I'm extremely busy, and Miss Yan doesn't have time to entertain him. Tell him to come back later."
Without waiting for Yan Yi to ask him, Wen Huiran explained, "What is he doing here so early in the morning? He has no sense of propriety."
no!
Yan Yi opened his mouth but didn't say a word.
She was still thinking about asking Su Can about the evil cultivators. What a shame that the villain kept preventing her from meeting Su Can!
"Your Majesty, don't you like my cousin?" Yan Yi would never sit still and wait for death, nor would he suffer in silence.
Wen Huiran glanced at her sideways, his eyes filled with displeasure, "Why should I like him? Does he deserve it?"
Yan Yi was secretly shocked when he heard this. "Your Majesty, have you forgotten? I wanted to ask my cousin about the evil cultivator's movements. He is my cousin, I can't just ignore him!"
Wen Huoran: "I'll ask him later. I don't want to see him today."
Okay!
Yan Yi was too lazy to deal with him, so he returned to the table, opened his luggage, and started packing.
Before noon, Su Can came again.
Wen Huiran was full of complaints and couldn't help muttering, "He really is a thief with unyielding intentions."
Yan Yi was drinking water and almost sprayed a mouthful of hot tea on his face. She took out a handkerchief to wipe the tea from the corner of her mouth, quite shocked.
"Your Majesty, do you think that my cousin and I used to have that kind of relationship?"
Wen Huoran was speechless for a moment after she hit the nail on the head.
Yan Yi explained, "I've mentioned this to Your Majesty before. Marriage between blood relatives is called consanguineous marriage, and it's forbidden by mortal law. Furthermore, it can result in children with mental retardation or other illnesses."
Wen Huoran's expression turned even uglier. "Of course I remember. If it weren't for this reason, your father would have let you marry your childhood sweetheart, your cousin."
This train of thought!
It would be a shame if you weren't a villain!
Yan Yi had no intention of entangled with him, and said softly: "Your Majesty, what if my cousin wants to see me for something urgent? I'll go check it out and come back soon. It's right at the door of the bedroom. With the guard brother here, nothing will happen."
Wen Huoran put the folded clothes into the bedside cabinet, turned around and went straight to the door, "I'll go with you."
Yan Yi almost had a heart attack.
