Chapter 54: The Immortal Wife and the Village Husband
Xiaoyao Lang and his companion entered the room, and it was indeed quite nice. The room was spacious and bright, with a corner partition for the bedroom, and all the furniture and utensils were of high quality.
Yu Linglong sat leaning against the table, while Xiaoyao Lang looked around. Not long after, the shop owner entered the room with a plate of fried peanuts, a pot of wine, a pot of tea, and two cups, all with a smile.
Xiaoyao Langyan said, "Boss, you've really done a thorough job!"
The shop owner chuckled, "Of course! Your family paid for it, so I'll naturally serve you well. I was worried that you wouldn't be able to drink the wine, so I brought up a pot of tea!" He then placed it on the table.
Yu Linglong and Xiaoyao Lang felt slightly embarrassed upon hearing this.
Xiaoyao Lang crossed his arms and laughed, "Your Excellency!?"
The shop owner laughed and said, "Yes, at first I thought you were a servant, but I didn't know you were husband and wife until you two were sharing a room."
Xiaoyao Lang glanced at Yu Linglong and, seeing that she was pouring tea without changing her expression, felt relieved.
The shop owner chuckled again, "Your wife is as beautiful as a fairy and dressed as beautiful as the moon and flowers, yet you are dressed like this, which makes it hard for others not to think otherwise!"
Xiaoyao Lang looked completely innocent and asked weakly, "Then what should I do?"
Upon hearing this, the shop owner rebuked, "That's where you're wrong. You are a perfect match for your wife, a handsome man and a beautiful woman. With just a little dressing up, the two of you together would be a timeless couple!"
Xiaoyao Lang glanced furtively at Yu Linglong and found that her expression remained unchanged as she slowly swirled her teacup. Xiaoyao Lang touched his clothes, looked at his lower body, and frowned slightly.
The shop owner smiled and said, "Sir, there's a Caiyun Cloth Shop not far ahead. Go and cut a few feet of top-quality cloth and have two outfits made. You'll look absolutely dashing and elegant in them!" Then he added, "Alright, alright! I've forgotten everything I've been telling you! I'll take my leave now."
After the shop owner left, Xiaoyao Lang hurriedly sat down to Yu Linglong's left and whispered, "Is the tea good?"
Yu Linglong held the teacup in her right hand, swirled it around, and said indifferently, "It's alright."
Xiaoyao Lang gazed at Yu Linglong's jade-like hands, as white as frost, and couldn't resist touching them. Yu Linglong, however, seemed to know this and instantly pulled them into her arms. Xiaoyao Lang's right hand rested on the table, missing its target. His impulse intensified, and he reached out to embrace Yu Linglong's slender waist. Yu Linglong swayed and stood up to the side.
Although Yu Linglong maintained a calm expression, her heart was pounding like a deer's. While she didn't dislike Xiaoyao Lang's actions, she couldn't accept his behavior towards her now.
Xiaoyao Lang turned around, intending to embrace Yu Linglong from behind, thinking that if he did so, she would definitely not be able to escape. Yu Linglong sensed something, and immediately channeled her energy into her arms, her six fingers subtly flicking out. Just as Xiaoyao Lang embraced Yu Linglong, two bursts of energy struck him in mid-air, instantly immobilizing him.
Xiaoyao Lang asked in surprise, "What did you do to me?"
Yu Linglong turned around and said, "Then what do you want to do to me?"
Xiaoyao Lang said guiltily, "I just couldn't control myself for a moment and wanted to hold you in my arms."
Yu Linglong didn't know how to answer, so she turned her head and said softly, "Then you can just stand there like that!"
Xiaoyao Lang joked, "Ah! Even married couples share a bed, and I get punished for just hugging someone!"
Yu Linglong listened without saying anything and sat down diagonally opposite Xiaoyao Lang.
Just then, the shop owner arrived with a plate of side dishes and saw Xiaoyao Lang standing beside the table, his hands clasped as if holding a jar. He put the dishes down and asked with a smile, "What are you doing, sir?"
Xiaoyao Lang said casually, "I'm dancing to entertain my virtuous wife!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Linglong glanced at Xiaoyao Lang without saying a word, and poured herself a small sip of wine.
"Is that so? You two have quite the refined taste!" the shop owner replied with a smile. After watching for a moment, seeing that Xiaoyao Lang made no move, the shop owner asked with a smile, "Why aren't you dancing anymore?"
Xiaoyao Lang: "My...my wife said she likes this pose and told me to stay still!"
Upon hearing Xiaoyao Lang's words and glancing at him, Yu Linglong blushed and lowered her head in silence.
Upon seeing this, the shop owner immediately understood and realized that he had been impolite. He quickly smiled and apologized, "I have been very rude and have disturbed your enjoyment. I will take my leave now!"
After the shop owner left, he deliberately closed the door. Xiaoyao Lang said leisurely to Yu Linglong, "Hey? The food and wine are all here, but I'm still hungry!"
Yu Linglong said softly, "If I let you go, what if you continue to be so rude?"
The carefree and arrogant man declared, "I'll let my virtuous wife punish me as she pleases!"
Yu Linglong slammed her left palm on the table, and two peanuts in the plate immediately rose up. Then, with a flick of her left hand, the two peanuts, carrying energy, struck Xiaoyao Lang's acupoint.
Xiaoyao Lang breathed a sigh of relief and sat down to eat, occasionally glancing at the beauty before him. He asked softly, "What's the name of that move you used to control me just now?"
Yu Linglong said calmly, "It's a move from the Six-Finger Locking Technique, the Qi-Locking Technique."
Xiaoyao Lang hurriedly asked, "Can you teach me?"
Yu Linglong said calmly, "Alright, become my disciple and join the Heavenly Palace."
Xiaoyao Lang was taken aback, popped a peanut into his mouth, and said sternly, "Become your disciple? No way!"
Yu Linglong was puzzled by his strong reaction and felt somewhat disappointed. She asked in a low voice, "Why?"
Xiaoyao Lang stammered, "If you become my master, I will be your disciple. Human relations and social norms... how can I still like you?" After saying that, he didn't look at Yu Linglong.
Yu Linglong, who had just felt dejected, immediately understood Xiaoyao Lang's intentions upon hearing these words. Her heart calmed, and she softly said, "Then... do as you please."
Xiaoyao Lang laughed and said, "Do you want to know what the first thing I'll do after I learn to do?"
Yu Linglong asked curiously, "What are you doing?"
Xiaoyao Lang looked at Yu Linglong with deep affection and joked, "It's about freezing you in place!"
Yu Linglong, annoyed, stood up and said, "That's indecent." Then she turned and headed towards the bedroom.
Xiaoyao Lang hurriedly asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"
Yu Linglong said emphatically, "I'm full."
Looking at the voluptuous figure and beautiful body, a wicked thought suddenly arose in Xiaoyao Lang's mind, and his mind went completely blank.
As Yu Linglong entered the bedroom, Xiaoyao Lang called out softly from behind, "Linglong!"
As Yu Linglong turned around in confusion, Xiaoyao Lang had already pulled her into his arms, pinned her down on the bed, and forcefully kissed her red lips.
Yu Linglong reacted instinctively, unleashing a powerful burst of true energy from her body, her palms already imbued with force. But upon seeing Xiaoyao Lang's face and hearing her red lips being kissed, the force in her hands dissipated, her true energy returned to calm, and a tear rolled down her cheek.
After a moment of carefree revelry, he saw Yu Linglong with her eyes closed and tears streaming down her face. His mind immediately cleared, and he stopped what he was doing. He stood up, slapped himself twice, and rushed out of the bedroom.
Yu Linglong recovered and straightened her clothes. Hearing a series of banging sounds outside, she went out to investigate. She found Xiaoyao Lang sitting there, repeatedly banging his head against the table.
Yu Linglong approached her, placed her hands on her chest, and asked softly, "What's wrong with you now?"
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyao Lang stopped his assault and said in a low voice, "I was sorry for what I did to you earlier. Seeing your alluring figure, I couldn't control myself and had wicked thoughts about you. I am truly ashamed." Then, he slapped himself twice.
Yu Linglong replied calmly, "Did I blame you?"
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyao Lang turned around and looked up at Yu Linglong, hurriedly saying, "I..." He then didn't know what to say.
Yu Linglong sat down, smoothing her skirt, and said softly, "Would you like to have a couple of drinks with me?"
Xiaoyao Lang, who had just been relieved of his embarrassment, said happily, "Of course! This wine is gone! I'll go get some more, please wait a moment!"
After saying that, he got up and quickly walked out.
