Chapter 109: Falling in Love with Ancient People
When Xiao Yu heard Yan Nanan expose his past, his heart sank.
Everyone knew that there was something wrong with him, Yan Nanan knew it, and Xu Chuchu knew it too.
But he never expected that Xu Chuchu would say that she would give him another chance. And it seemed that in her eyes, his insignificant abilities were also considered advantages?
Is it because... she has never had contact with other young men?
If she had come into contact with him, she might not like him anymore. Is it okay for him to get there first?
No, I can't care less. Her words are very clear! If I don't catch him, I will regret it for the rest of my life.
"Are you willing to marry me?!" Xiao Yu suddenly grabbed Xu Chuchu's shoulders.
"Ah?!" Xu Chuchu, who was originally blushing, was instantly frightened and turned pale.
What the hell?
Ask him if he has thought it through and is ready to get married?
What is this enterprise-level priority understanding?
"So... isn't it?" Xiao Yu looked lost, like an innocent boy who had been deceived by a bad girl.
"What does this have to do with getting married?" Xu Chuchu almost vomited blood. "I just wanted to, I wanted to..."
Of course, what she meant was to have a little romance and try to get along.
But she couldn't form any words for a long time, because there was no such thing as "love" in ancient times.
In ancient times, marriage was arranged by parents and matchmakers. Many people had never seen each other before their wedding night, so there was no such thing as free love.
Free love here is called private giving and receiving, and whether it is based on marriage or not, it is hooliganism.
No wonder Xiao Yu skipped the friendship stage and went straight to "getting married".
Xu Chuchu secretly glanced at Xiao Yu and saw that he still had a confused and lost look on his face.
Oh, why is it so troublesome to fall in love with ancient people! This wooden bun!
"Getting married is a big deal, how can you decide so quickly? And getting a divorce is hard..." She muttered, "Just try to get along first, and then decide if you get along. If not, we can just break up."
To be honest, she herself didn't know whether she could get along with Xiao Yu.
They got along very happily during this period, but that doesn't mean their three views are completely in line.
Xu Chuchu is still a modern girl at heart. She likes all new things, likes making friends, and even likes to appreciate good-looking boys and girls.
These may be unacceptable to Xiao Yu... She especially doesn't like her dealing with other men.
Similarly, in ancient times, having three wives and four concubines was allowed, and brothels were also legal. If Xiao Yu wanted to take a concubine or visit a brothel in the future, she would definitely not tolerate it.
They may have all kinds of unexpected conflicts and quarrels in the future. They may end up as a couple or they may separate with regret.
But...so what?
Will the fear never start again?
There was nothing wrong with Yan Nanan's reminder. To put it bluntly, people like Xiao Yu are potential dangerous elements in the future.
If Xu Chuchu had heard about his overbearing possessiveness before she met him, she would have stayed away from him in advance.
But she was not like that. She had already come into contact with the real Xiao Yu, understood his strengths, and enjoyed his kindness to her.
She knew that Xiao Yu's possessiveness was inseparable from his strange illness and childhood experiences.
She didn't think Xiao Yu was a complete pervert. She felt that he could get better step by step.
Most importantly... he's already so alone.
If she left him again at this time, he might never be saved and would become completely crazy.
Of course, Xu Chuchu never liked to be a saint. She would not selflessly sacrifice herself just to save someone.
She said this today because Xiao Yu also made her heart beat.
Apart from the sense of justice just mentioned, she also had many thoughts that she was embarrassed to express directly.
He took good care of her and would be the first to stand up and defend her without hesitation when she was questioned.
He was tough with outsiders and didn't allow them to question him, but he was very accommodating to her.
When she was with him, she never felt any sadness or grievance.
Every little thing, every little detail, is collected together like drops of water, constantly adding to your heartbeat.
Indeed, Xu Chuchu's cultivation had reached the pinnacle, unmatched, but she was still a blank slate in terms of emotions.
She never expected her future partner to be rich, powerful, or have a high status. Like all girls, she just wanted an exclusive, warm, and favored relationship.
"Chuchu."
Xiao Yu's trembling voice called out to her ears, and the hand that was originally tightly clasped on her shoulder slowly loosened, replaced by a cautious and treasured hug.
"Thank you... for giving me a chance." He added, "I won't let you down."
Xu Chuchu knew that he understood.
Technically, this wasn't their first hug.
When they were fleeing together and supporting each other, they had hugged each other many times.
But every time before, we had to do it out of necessity. No time was like today, when we hugged each other just to be close to each other.
Xu Chuchu was held in his arms, and suddenly she remembered that this guy had cunningly avoided her previous questions about his feelings and did not give a direct answer.
But it doesn't matter if you don't answer at this time.
The body's reactions are often more real than words.
Xiao Yu's unusually stiff arms and his violent heartbeat that was about to burst out of his chest answered his questions.
"Chu Chu." His Adam's apple rolled, and his voice became a little hoarse for some reason, "...I want to kiss you."
By this time, the government officials had already left, and the country road was empty with only the two of them.
You can do whatever you want without being discovered.
Xu Chuchu's heart also started beating wildly.
Are men always this quick? Just after confessing, they're already kissing?
She also played tricks and did not answer. She quietly placed her hands on Xiao Yu's chest and gently closed her eyes.
She was still in her first kiss and had never known what a kiss felt like, so she was nervous, curious, and a little expectant.
She couldn't see Xiao Yu's reaction, but she could feel his breathing becoming more and more frequent, and heard the sound of him swallowing his saliva because he couldn't bear it.
However, the touch of lips did not come while waiting.
Xiao Yu's restrained and forbearing kiss fell on her tightly closed eyes.
The soft lips gently brushed across the eyes and eyelashes, lingering for a moment, and then quickly lifted.
"Sorry, I'm sorry." He looked even more nervous than Xu Chuchu.
…
On the way back, neither of them spoke, but Xu Chuchu's hand was held in Xiao Yu's palm all the way.
In the past, the two of them had walked hand in hand for the purpose of cultivation, but their state of mind was different at that time. They were very pure and focused on improving their cultivation.
Later, he met County Magistrate Lin and took on this case. As if by agreement, the two of them never held each other's hands again, even when they were alone.
Now that I have regained this feeling, it is even sweeter.
But when they return to where there are people, they will still shamelessly let go.
The two returned to the Guzhu County government office and stayed there for one night. The next day they said goodbye to County Magistrate Lin and left.
During his time in Guzhu County, Xu Chuchu gained a lot.
Her cultivation level broke through to the fourth level in one fell swoop. Although she lost the peach wood sword, she gained a high-level magic weapon, the Floating Life Umbrella.
This oil-paper umbrella is tattered and cannot keep out the rain on rainy days or shade the sun on sunny days, but as a weapon, it is much more powerful than the peach wood sword.
Xu Chuchu could even use it to fry fish by the river, and he would always catch one. He no longer had to go into the water and get soaked to catch fish.
Not only that, she had collected a lot of herbs from the bottom of Shuijing Lake before. The people in the village didn't use them all, so she brought the rest out and put some of them in her daily cooking, which greatly improved the cultivation of both of them.
Especially Xiao Yu, he had a good physique and high talent, and with the help of medicinal food, he quickly improved from the beginning of the third level to the full third level, which was less than the fourth level.
Of course, there is still a huge gap between his third level and Xu Chuchu's previous third level.
He only has spiritual power but no martial arts moves, or his moves are not powerful enough to exert much strength.
When Xu Chuchu taught him, he also focused on teaching him moves and how to use spiritual power.
But for Xiao Yu, his greatest gain was not his cultivation or his magic weapon, but... Xu Chuchu himself.
Although Xu Chuchu has not agreed to marry him yet, she is willing to give it a try with him in advance, which is already a great progress.
It was so beautiful that he couldn't help but smile secretly before going to bed every night.
The only headache is that he still doesn't quite understand what the concept of "trying to get along" means and what the boundaries are.
He didn't understand love, so according to his understanding, "trying to get along" should be similar to the "probation period" of officials in the court.
Try it for a while. If it suits you, stay. If it doesn't, go find another position.
But even the probationary officials in the court do not have the same powers as regular officials and cannot do everything.
Xiao Yu didn't even know where the boundary between himself and Xu Chuchu was.
I don’t know what I can do and what I can’t do.
He knew that they were not married yet, and that they were not allowed to do anything embarrassing on their wedding night, but... what about other things?
He was not sure, and did not dare to be too aggressive and upset Xu Chuchu, so he would ask in advance before doing anything.
Is one-sided affection okay? Is holding hands okay? Is a kiss on the cheek okay? ...
He always asks seriously.
Xu Chuchu agreed to each of these questions with a blushing face.
Every time he agreed, Xiao Yu was overjoyed.
He could suddenly hug her from behind when she wasn't paying attention, or kiss the top of her head when she giggled.
There are only the two of them in the universe.
Xiao Yu felt that in the past twenty years since he was born, he had never been as happy as he was during these days.
...But to be honest, Xu Chuchu felt that he was a bit clingy.
In her eyes, except when she was teaching seriously, Xiao Yu would behave a little more normally. The rest of the time he was like a slug, insisting on sticking to some part of her body, which made her a little annoyed.
But thinking about it, being alone in the wilderness, a man and a woman, there was nothing much to do except practice and spend time together, so he didn't say anything.
After a long time, when we enter the city or return to the capital, this will definitely not happen again.
The only thing that made Xu Chuchu feel relieved was that although Xiao Yu was clingy, she had never shown any inappropriate or lustful behavior, nor had she made any excessive demands. She was mostly warm and sweet.
Come to think of it, it would be strange if he could do anything excessive since he is impotent.
In fact, Xu Chuchu is quite open-minded about her boyfriend's impotence.
Originally, she herself had never had those "worldly desires" and had no interest in those matters in the boudoir. Whether her partner was erectile dysfunction... didn't seem to matter. The only problem was that she might not have children in the future.
If you really want to have a child in the future, you can just give him some medicine to make him erect. It's no big deal.
Forget it, Xu Chuchu was too lazy to think so far and just waited for things to work out.
…
The two left Guzhu County and walked for more than ten days before finally arriving at their next stop, Linchuan County.
This was also the first county town they entered after coming out of Tailing County.
The county town is different from the county. It is larger and more prosperous, with more supplies to purchase and better food and accommodation.
"We are finally entering the city." Xu Chuchu happily ran forward a few steps, looking at the ancient and majestic city wall in curiosity.
"Yeah, we're finally going into the city." Xiao Yu lamented softly as he fell behind. "Finally, I can stay at the inn. I was so suffocated."
"What do you mean you're suffocating?" Xu Chuchu hadn't expected to hear him from such a distance, and even came back to ask him, "Didn't you care whether or not to stay at the inn?"
Although Xiao Yu was born into a noble family, he never cared about food and clothing when he was with Xu Chuchu.
Sometimes the conditions in the country inn where they stayed were poor and there were bedbugs in the room. Xu Chuchu would complain, but Xiao Yu would always quietly find some anthelmintic and apply it to Xu Chuchu. She never said much and didn't want to pass on her bad mood to Xu Chuchu.
Ha, I didn’t expect that Xiao Yu would also get tired of living in the wild one day.
Xiao Yu's face suddenly turned red: "I'm not, I didn't!"
Xu Chuchu was stunned: "Huh?"
Xiao Yugu immediately changed the subject: "I mean, I can finally take a good bath, yes, a bath."
After entering the city, Xiao Yu took Xu Chuchu to the most upscale inn in the city, preparing to rest for half a day.
She was finally able to relax, but when she entered the room, Xu Chuchu suddenly felt a little nervous.
She remembered that before going to bed two nights ago, Xiao Yu asked her if they could sleep together with their blankets, and she agreed.
At that time, Xiao Yu promised not to touch her, and in the end, facts proved that he was very honest for several nights. He just slept close to her and didn't even touch the corner of her clothes.
But now that he's at the inn, wouldn't he also want to... sleep with her? Wouldn't that mean we'd have to share a room?
Although they were both sleeping together and not doing anything, it was still different in the wild and in bed...
No, no, Xu Chuchu began to urgently think of a way to refuse.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Yu got ahead of him this time and said directly to the waiter at the counter, "Open two upper rooms and send hot water."
