Chapter 170 The Little Fox Transforms into a Human, the Demon Lord is Busy Chasing His Wife - 20
Yan Shuo overheard their conversation, but he ate his food leisurely, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.
Mu Wanwan stepped directly on his instep, and he glanced sideways at the little fox who was puffing up her cheeks in anger.
He raised an eyebrow and moved closer to her, while she leaned slightly towards him.
"Wanwan, are you trying to murder your husband?"
"Who, who told you to bite my neck like this? Am I some kind of spicy duck neck?"
The two kept making small movements, and with a snap, the chopsticks in Feng Xiangling's hand broke in two.
"Left Envoy Feng, are the chopsticks of poor quality? Don't use chopsticks from this supplier again next time."
Feng Xiangling was in charge of purchasing the chopsticks, so he assumed the chopsticks were of poor quality and reminded her not to use that supplier again.
"understood!"
Li Yuan thought she was in low spirits because she was afraid of being punished by the Demon Lord, so he kept an eye on the Demon Lord's chopsticks throughout the evening meal to see if they would break.
After the banquet, Li Yuan took advantage of Mu Wanwan being alone and stopped her by the roadside.
"Right Envoy Li?"
Li Yuan produced a bouquet of flowers from who-knows-where and presented it with both hands.
"Wanwan, these flowers are for you!"
"give me?"
She pointed to her nose to confirm with him.
"Yes, I know I'm being presumptuous. We've only met twice, so sending flowers is indeed a bit abrupt."
Mu Wanwan did not reach out to take it; the blushing young man in front of her was clearly experiencing the stirrings of first love.
He held the gesture of offering flowers with both hands, but Mu Wanwan hesitated to accept them.
“Right Envoy Li, in the fox clan, when a man presents flowers to a woman, it means that the man loves the woman. Therefore, I cannot accept the flowers, but I appreciate your kindness.”
Li Yuan looked embarrassed, but he had the spirit of never giving up. "Wanwan, I know that what I'm about to say is unbelievable to myself. If I don't tell you, I'm afraid someone else will beat me to it."
"Master, you're so popular in the Demon Realm! He's going to confess his love to you!"
The system pig looked at the scene before it and could only sigh, but it was not surprised.
"There's nothing I can do. Your master is naturally beautiful and has the title of Best Actress, so she's a heartthrob wherever she goes. No matter who confesses to me in this world, they can't shake Yan Shuo's position in my heart. He is my male lead."
"Wanwan, I love you. I fell in love with you the first time I met you. Please believe me, I am not a frivolous man. If you can be with me, I will treat you well for the rest of my life. You will be my only wife in this life."
Li Yuan knelt on one knee, holding flowers in both hands, his gaze deep and his expression devout. After speaking, he waited for Mu Wanwan to pronounce the verdict.
"I'm sorry, I already have someone I like!"
Li Yuan looked at Mu Wanwan in disbelief. The person he liked?
Li Yuan is the most handsome man here. Countless girls in the Demon Realm are eager to be with him. If she were to like someone, she should like him instead.
"Who is it? Can you tell me?" He wanted to know where he fell short compared to the person in her heart.
Mu Wanwan shook her head, but when she saw the corner of her clothes peeking out from behind the artificial hill, she smiled gently.
“Right Envoy Li, he is the best person to me in this world, without exception. My heart can only hold him, and I will only ever recognize him as my husband. I cannot live without him. I'm sorry, Right Envoy Li, I cannot accept you.”
Li Yuan got up from the ground, lowered his head to look at the flowers in his hand. At least for now, he had not seen the person she liked, so there was still a chance.
"I understand. I think these flowers are quite pretty and suit you well. You can keep them for now."
He forcefully shoved the flowers into her arms and turned away.
She stared blankly at the flowers in her arms, then looked up and saw movement behind the artificial hill; the person must have already left.
She raised an eyebrow, picked up the flowers, and walked back.
As soon as I arrived at the gate, I saw several people carrying things into the yard.
"What are you doing?"
The soldiers put down the flowerpots, wiped their sweat, and said, "Miss Wanwan, the Demon Lord ordered these to be placed here, saying they are for his enjoyment."
Mu Wanwan took a closer look and realized that this flower was the same as the one in her hand.
"Red tulips!"
She blurted out the flower's name, and the soldier gave her a thumbs up.
“Miss Wanwan is indeed very knowledgeable. I just heard the flower seller say that this flower is called Red Tulip, which symbolizes passionate love. But the Demon Lord probably just thinks the flower is pretty.”
Mu Wanwan covered her lips and chuckled softly, "I didn't expect the Demon Lord to also enjoy admiring flowers."
Yan Shuo stepped out from the side. "You like flowers, but does that mean I'm allowed to admire them?"
Her gaze swept over him from head to toe, trying to find the slightest flaw. At this moment, his face was as cold as ice, and there was no trace of the tenderness they had shared earlier that day.
“Every inch of land in the Demon Realm belongs to the Demon Lord. As a mere fox spirit, I naturally have to rely on the Demon Lord. Whatever the Demon Lord wants to do is his prerogative, and I have no right to interfere.”
She was carrying flowers and preparing to go inside when the soldiers, seeing the Demon Lord's anger, quickly fled.
Yan Shuo grabbed her by the back of her collar, pulled her back, threw away the flowers in her arms, and stomped on them twice.
"Why did you step on these perfectly good flowers! You're being unreasonable and rude!"
Okay, very good! Li Yuangang confessed his feelings to her, and she immediately complained that she was unreasonable? That she was domineering?
"You yourself said this is my territory, I can do whatever I want. I just don't like the flowers, what can you do about it?"
He clearly overheard my confession while hiding behind the rockery, so why is he deliberately picking a fight now?
Hmph! You damn man, I'm not putting up with this anymore!
She forcefully shook off his hand, rushed into the house, and slammed the door shut in one swift motion, leaving Yan Shuo alone, bewildered in the wind.
He took a deep breath and stared at the closed door with a dark look in his eyes.
He lifted his leg forward and pushed the door, but the door didn't budge.
He exerted a little force and realized that she had locked the door from the inside.
"Mu Wanwan, open the door for me!"
Mu Wanwan crossed her arms and refused to open the door, fuming.
"No! Master's been mean!"
"Drive it now, or I'll get angry! The consequences will be severe!" Yan Shuo tried to scare her, but she wouldn't have any of it.
"I'm angry, but I'm angry because you stepped on my flowers! Humph!"
She wasn't actually angry that he trampled the perfectly good flowers; she was angry that he had clearly heard her confession.
Moreover, she even brought out the same flowers and placed them in the courtyard, clearly wanting Li Yuan to compete and show that he was her man.
But why do you speak with such veiled barbs?
Yan Shuo seemed to realize that he had been blinded by jealousy, and his voice softened slightly.
"Good disciple, let your master in, and I'll explain things to you properly."
Seeing that the person in the room still didn't move, he had no choice but to use his magic to open the door.
