The next day, just as dawn was breaking, Zhang Shaozhong was awakened by an extremely faint rustling sound.
He groggily opened his eyes and saw Ling Qingxue with her back to him, gently folding up the white Lolita dress that she had crumpled up, as if she were dealing with a hot potato.
Zhang Shaozhong suppressed a laugh and deliberately asked vaguely, "Wife...why are you up so early?"
Ling Qingxue froze as she folded the clothes. Without turning her head, her voice was hoarse from just waking up and carried a hint of barely perceptible embarrassment and annoyance: "Cultivation."
After saying that, she almost walked quickly into the dressing room, slamming the door shut, probably wanting to permanently seal away that "dark history".
Zhang Shaozhong almost burst out laughing. Ling Qingxue was just too cute when she was shy!
He turned his head to look at the other side. Ye Meier, that enchantress, was sleeping soundly, sprawled out on her back, her tattered "uniform" still hanging on her body, and there was even a suspicious glint of moisture on the corner of her mouth. She was completely different from the bewitching woman she had been last night.
"Tsk, what a sleeping posture..."
Zhang Shaozhong curled his lips in disgust, but still reached out and pulled the blanket back up for her.
He lay in the middle of the large waterbed, savoring the ultimate experience of the previous night, feeling incredibly happy.
I wouldn't trade this life for being a god!
When the sun was high in the sky, Ye Meier finally woke up, stretching lazily. Seeing that Zhang Shaozhong was the only one beside her, she asked languidly, "Where's your pretentious air? Going to play the ice queen again?"
Zhang Shaozhong pinched her nose: "You think everyone's like you, sleeping until the sun is high in the sky?"
"Tch~" Ye Meier didn't care at all. Instead, she flipped over and pinned Zhang Shaozhong down, her eyes starting to drool again. "Husband~ Last night... how was I?"
She drew circles on his chest with her finger. "More open-minded than that fake aloofness, right?"
Zhang Shaozhong was aroused by her teasing, but remembering Ling Qingxue's embarrassed and indignant appearance that morning, he forcibly suppressed his anger and patted her pert buttocks: "Okay! Okay! Get up quickly!"
"Boring!"
Ye Meier pouted as she got up, casually tossed her almost ruined "battle robe" on the ground, and swaggered barefoot into the bathroom.
Zhang Shaozhong felt a little regretful as he watched the expensive dress being discarded.
When the two of them finally came downstairs, Ling Qingxue was indeed already at the table, sipping her spirit rice porridge with an elegant posture and a cool expression, as if she were not the person who had been so ashamed and indignant in the Lolita dress last night.
Ye Meier plopped down opposite her, picked up a steamed bun and started munching on it, teasingly mumbling, "Oh, the iceberg's melted completely? Reset to factory settings?"
Ling Qingxue didn't even lift her eyelids, and said calmly, "One should not speak while eating or sleeping."
"You hypocrite!" Ye Meier snorted, deliberately making a crunching sound as she bit into the bun.
Zhang Shaozhong quickly smoothed things over: "Let's eat! What are the plans for today?"
Ye Meier's eyes lit up, and an idea came to her: "Husband~ Let's go to the movies today! I heard there's a new movie out, something like 'Love Song of the Immortal Realm,' it sounds really interesting!"
Before Zhang Shaozhong could speak, Ling Qingxue frowned and said, "A love between a celestial being and a mortal? It goes against all moral principles, is pure fabrication, what's so interesting about it?"
"Look, look!"
Ye Meier pointed at Ling Qingxue and said to Zhang Shaozhong, "That's just how she is! She can't stand anything! Let's go! Without her!"
Ling Qingxue put down her spoon, looked at Zhang Shaozhong, and although she didn't speak, her eyes clearly said, "You dare?"
Zhang Shaozhong was immediately in a real bind.
With flames on the left and icebergs on the right, he was sandwiched in the middle and was practically grilled on a hot plate!
"Go! All of you, go!"
Zhang Shaozhong slammed his fist on the table. "Our whole family is here! Let's see what this 'Love Song of the Immortal Realm' is all about! I want to see how much nonsense it spouts!"
Finally, under Zhang Shaozhong's "powerful" suppression, the two women finally stopped fighting and went out together.
When we arrived at the movie theater, we bought popcorn and Coke.
Ye Meier really liked this sweet stuff, while Ling Qingxue only glanced at it and didn't touch it at all.
As expected, the movie opens with a melodramatic fantasy romance film riddled with plot holes and cheap special effects, making the cultivation world seem like child's play.
Zhang Shaozhong kept yawning as he watched, while Ye Meier watched with great interest, occasionally commenting, "This fairy is no good, she's not even half as pretty as that fake haughty one!"
"This villain is too weak; he wouldn't last three days in our Demon Realm!"
Ling Qingxue's attitude changed from initial criticism to... actually frowning slightly, watching with a bit of fascination.
Especially when the male and female protagonists were forced to separate due to the obstruction of the heavens, Zhang Shaozhong clearly felt the temperature around him drop a few degrees.
As the movie ended, Ye Meier was still excitedly discussing the plot, while Ling Qingxue remained silent and quickly walked out.
"Hey, what do you think of this pretentious hypocrite?"
Ye Meier chased after him and asked.
Ling Qingxue continued walking, coldly saying, "Utterly absurd. Heaven is merciless; how could it punish someone for personal feelings? A cultivator whose Dao heart is unstable deserves this calamity."
Ye Meier rolled her eyes: "I can't talk to an ice block like you! You have absolutely no sense of romance!"
Zhang Shaozhong followed behind, watching the two women, one criticizing and the other reminiscing, while he himself began to ponder.
Although this movie is ridiculous, it seems to have unintentionally touched a spot in Qingxue's heart?
She used to be a Nascent Soul cultivator, just one step away from touching the rules of Heaven, so she must be sensitive to this kind of topic.
Back home, while Ye Meier went to play the latest video game (she's recently become obsessed with it), Zhang Shaozhong slipped away to the gazebo in the backyard.
