The transparent tentacles were squirming wildly behind her, and the sound of sticky water echoed in the air.

"I seem to hear some sound, Aqiu, did you hear it?" Yu Yi asked. She turned her head in confusion, and her eyes met a tentacle that fell in front of her.

The tip of the tentacle was suspended an inch away from her, and the hanging mucus condensed into beads, becoming heavier and heavier, and finally pulled out a line of silver and dripped onto her cheek.

Yu Yi raised her hand and touched the mucus on her cheek, wondering: "Where did this water come from? Why does it feel so disgusting? Aqiu, is our roof leaking? But it's not raining outside."

She couldn't see those tentacles, those anxious, threatening transparent tentacles that wanted to wrap her up and crush her.

Xue Chenjing stood up, pinched his sleeves, and gently wiped the mucus off her cheeks. The corners of his mouth curled up into a smile, but there was no smile in his pupils. He said, "It may be the water accumulated in the tiles after the rain last night. After lunch, I will check the roof carefully."

Yu Yi nodded, immediately stepped back from his hands, sat aside, and waited for Xue Chenjing to cook obediently. She praised him, "There is a dragon in the south in the mountain pool. Ah Qiu is the dragon in the mountain pool. He can do everything." Xue

Chenjing's hand, which was still hanging in the same place, paused slightly, lowered his hand, walked back to the stove, picked up the kitchen knife again to cut the piece of pork belly, and said casually, "My father did give me a name based on this."

"Zen?" Yu Yi was surprised. She had always thought that this was his name. "Then what is Ah Qiu's full name? Strange, we are married, why don't I know your full name?"

Xue Chenjing: "..."

The system coughed wildly. It is not appropriate to say his full name. As a time traveler, the heroine is holding the script of "The Tide". In her cognition, "Xue Chenjing" is a villain who does all kinds of evil.

If it is said, the play cannot be performed.

Xue Chenjing understood its reminder and said calmly: "Xue Qiu, this is my full name."

Anyway, the word "Qiu" is just an alternative courtesy name given to him by Xue Xingzhi. He has not yet reached adulthood and has never used this word to the outside world.

Yu Yi was immediately convinced by him. She folded her hands in front of her and lay on the table to watch him cook.

Xue Chenjing was born in a wealthy merchant family. He had been a young master who had everything provided for him since he was a child. How could he wash his hands and cook soup? However, the task issued by the system had to be done by him personally. The young master was so angry that he smashed the pots and pans, but he had to bear the humiliation.

In the past few days, he relied on the system to command him. He practiced secretly several times before he became proficient.

This small house in the mountains was formed by the muddy ground, but the food in their stomachs could not rely on the muddy ground, otherwise they would die in this broken mountain ditch after eating a few bites.

The vegetable oil, seasoning and rice in the kitchen were all bought by him in the town overnight after he put a layer of human skin on the demon.

However, the food Yu Yi ordered was getting more and more difficult to cook. Xue Chenjing had to suffer a lot every time to make the dishes she ordered. The frustration in his heart was beyond words.

Today's hot pot meat was even worse. Xue Chenjing was under the system's command, and the oil was splattered. His hands were burned with blisters. The tentacles behind him wanted to overturn the house several times, but calmed down under the system's earnest persuasion.

- Sword Stone, he must open the Sword Stone and get the quenching table inside.

When Xue Chenjing was once again splashed with boiling oil on the back of his hand and wanted to lift the pot, the system shouted: "Master, calm down! Calm down! It will be ready soon! You cooked very well, it is exactly like the recipe, it must be delicious!"

Xue Chenjing frowned so hard that he could kill a fly, but he endured it with a look of deep hatred.

Yu Yi held her chin and looked at him in front of the stove. He was obviously in a mess, but he had to pretend to be at ease. Hearing the system shouting at the top of its lungs, it was like a war. She pursed her lips tightly, and it was so hard not to laugh out loud.

Xue Qiu, how did she pick up such a lovely husband. No, it shouldn't be said that she picked it up, it should be that he took the initiative to approach her, after all, he was carrying a strategy system, and she was his target.

When Yu Yi first opened her eyes and saw his face, she was still a little confused.

But soon, the information in her mind told her that after she entered the novel called "Tide", in order to avoid the intersection with the male protagonist Pei Jingchao, she burned down the cabin where the original owner lived and ran to this remote mortal town.

While she was living in seclusion here, she met the son of a merchant in the town. In order to completely shatter her halo as the heroine, Yu Yi married him and successfully tricked the young master into living in seclusion with her in the deep mountains and old forests.

They have been living in seclusion here for three years.

Yu Yi stroked her chin. Based on the information she heard from the system in the past few days, she always felt that this experience was a bit strange.

First of all, they have been living in seclusion here for three years, and Xue Qiu has been cooking for her for three years, but she is still so flustered and needs the system's guidance to know how to cook.

Secondly, they have been together for three years, and Xue Qiu has been pursuing her for three years, but she is not moved at all. Even if she knew that he was approaching her with a purpose, with her temperament, she would probably deliberately control herself and not let herself be tempted.

But Xue Qiu's appearance really fits her aesthetic point. Yu Yi knows her own virtue very well, and it is impossible for her to be as solid as a rock. Even if she will not fall in love with him, her favorability will never be so low.

Finally, what Yu Yi cares about the most is that when Xue Qiu wiped the water off her face and raised his hand to touch her cheek, her body's first reaction was not to want to get close to him, but to feel dangerous.

She felt a chill on her back and immediately got goose bumps all over her body. Every inch of muscle in her body tensed up. She screamed to stay away from him and almost couldn't help but kick him.

All of this made Yu Yi feel weird. But the cognition in her mind told her that the man in front of her was her husband who had been married.

Married? Yu Yi's eyes unconsciously followed Xue Qiu's figure, as if thinking about something.

…

Although it was difficult for Xue Chenjing to cook this meal, fortunately, under the hands-on guidance of the system, the finished product tasted good. The system finally breathed a sigh of relief when it saw Yu Yi eating with a smile on her face and a satisfied look on her face.

"See, I told you that the master did a great job." The system encouraged its host, "To capture a woman's heart, you must first capture her stomach. Master, you have already succeeded more than half!"

Xue Chenjing picked up a piece of food for Yu Yi with chopsticks, smiled gently, and asked coldly in his heart: "Favorability."

System: "..."

The system fell silent immediately.

After Yu Yi finished her meal, Xue Chenjing ate up all the remaining food on the plate. Although it was scalded badly when it was cooked, the taste of the finished product was indeed good.

Besides, this dish was made by him, so there is no reason to waste it.

After Xue Chenjing cleaned up the dishes, he had to go and steam the fish for her red-crowned crane. It doesn't look like a crane, but more like a pig. It can eat eight fish in one meal. It doesn't like it raw, and it doesn't like it too cooked. It can't be too salty or too bland.

Moreover, Senior Brother He doesn't like Xue Chenjing very much, and wants to rush up and peck him when he finds a chance. This beast also knows how to seek benefits and avoid harm. It won't attack him when the two are alone, but will only peck him secretly when Yu Yi is around.

Every day, from the time Xue Chenjing opens his eyes to the time he falls asleep at night, he may have the thought of killing Yu Yi eight hundred times, but he will definitely have the thought of killing Senior Brother He, this flat-haired beast, eight hundred and one times.

But he couldn't kill it. The system said that if he killed Senior Brother He, Yu Yi's pitiful favorability towards him would instantly be reset to zero and would be difficult to recover.

Therefore, in order to complete the damn system task and open the Sword-Suppressing Stone, Xue Chenjing could only continue to endure the humiliation.

Xue Chenjing was delivering fish to the red-crowned crane, but the beast took the opportunity to peck him twice. He turned his head and saw Yu Yi coming out of the house and walking towards them.

Senior Brother He knew that he didn't dare to beat it in front of Yu Yi.

Even a beast dared to bully him so openly!

"Master! Master! The favorability is only 6%! You must cherish it!" the system shouted hurriedly.

Xue Chenjing's murderous intent faltered slightly, and he resisted the urge to strangle Dan Ding He's neck. Under the nagging of the system, he suppressed his murderous intent and walked back.

"Ah Qiu, I think the back of your hand seems to be burned. Let me apply some medicine for you." Yu Yi walked in front of him, holding the burn ointment in her hand, and smiled at him.

Xue Chenjing was stunned for a moment, and immediately put his hand behind his back. Something under the skin of his hand was squirming crazily. After a while, two red blisters appeared on the originally smooth back of his hand.

Yu Yi urged, "Give me your hand, don't hide it, I saw it before."

Xue Chenjing handed her his hand obediently. The boy's palms were slender, with distinct bones. His palms were as cold as ever, like the morning mist in winter, with a dampness coming from his bones. Blue veins could be seen under the skin that was reddened by the burns.

Yu Yi held his hand, blew it gently on her lips, raised her face and glared at him, saying with reproach and heartache, "Don't hide and endure it if you get hurt in the future. Apply some medicine and it will heal quickly."

Her eyes were as bright as peach blossoms, her eyelashes were long and curled, and her eyes reflected the bright sunshine, like a pool of hot spring water, warm and sweet.

Xue Chenjing couldn't help but be absent-minded for a moment in her sweet eyes, then he came to his senses and asked in his heart: "Favourability."

System: "..." Favourability, favourability, you ask favourability eight hundred times a day! You get angry every time you ask, and you still need it to coax you, will it ever stop?

The atmosphere is so good now, the system doesn't want to ruin it, and ignores him.

Xue Chenjing could guess that the system didn't reply. This woman usually just says nice things with her mouth. She has a pair of soft and sweet eyebrows. When she looks at him, it seems that her whole body and soul are attached to him. She looks like she likes him very much, but in fact her heart is harder than anyone else.

Humph, she is the one with a heart of stone.

Xue Chenjing always feels that although people are very smart, they are also very deceiving. He only needs to implant an unbreakable cognition in their hearts, and their brains will automatically improve and rationalize the existence of this deep-rooted cognition.

Just like the group of stone-guarding disciples in the back mountain of Lishan Sword Sect, and the three people from Wanximen.

When he implanted the cognition of "I am her husband" into Yu Yi's mind, Yu Yi also automatically wove a reasonable origin for him, and it sounded good.

However, her favorability towards her husband was only 3%.

Xue Chenjing stared at the swirl of hair on her head, his eyes becoming more and more gloomy, and his heart began to become restless again.

Yu Yi was completely unaware, and buried his head in front of him. He dipped his fingers into the burn ointment and carefully smeared it on the back of his red hand. He blew gently while applying it, and whispered, "It doesn't hurt anymore."

After eating the fish, Senior Brother He walked over with his long legs and said "ga" to him with disdain.

Xue Chenjing turned his gloomy eyes and looked at it with murderous intent. The red-crowned crane was frightened by his gaze, and all its feathers exploded. It flapped its wings and ran behind Yu Yi, complaining with a ga ga ga.

Yu Yi pushed its head and scolded it lightly, "Don't make trouble. How could Ah Qiu hurt you?"

Xue Chenjing narrowed his eyes. He dared to be the first to complain. It was simply too much. It was intolerable.

He raised his hand inadvertently, and the tentacles in his sleeves moved. The ink-colored cuffs slipped off his arms, revealing two bright red blood spots on his wrists. The edges of the blood spots showed traces of dense scratches, which were obviously the work of the red-crowned crane.

Yu Yi was shocked and pushed his sleeves up a little more, revealing more blood spots, "Why are there so many wounds on your arms?"

Xue Chenjing quickly pulled down his sleeves to cover the wounds, pulled his hands back behind his body, lowered his eyelashes and whispered, "I'm fine, it doesn't hurt at all, I know Senior Brother He didn't mean it."

Behind Yu Yi, the red-crowned crane opened its mouth wide, and its small bird eyes were full of disbelief, "Huh?"

It clearly pecked his left hand, and it didn't use any force at all! How could the wound go to the right hand?

Yu Yi turned around, grabbed Senior Brother He's beak and criticized it, and punished it by not allowing it to eat at night.

Xue Chenjing raised the corners of his mouth, and suddenly, he was in a good mood.
