There's Something Wrong With These Demonic Women!

Chapter 32: Come In

chapter 32: come in

xuan yin rarely had the chance to come to the marketplace. usually, when she went down the mountain, it was to accomplish tasks assigned by her master. under normal circumstances, she would stay in her room. but now, she stood by lu xun's side, eating the delicious and sweet candied haws, while watching him buy all sorts of inexplicable things, stirring up an indescribable feeling in her heart.

although she didn't want to admit it, the fact was that whenever she was by his side, she didn't feel like cultivating. even if they did nothing, just quietly being with him felt much more enjoyable than practicing.

"why did you buy so many things?" xuan yin held the candied haws in her hand and asked coldly.

"it's rare to come down the mountain, so of course, i want to buy more," lu xun turned his head and looked at the aloof little demoness beside him. seeing that she had already eaten most of the candied haw, he asked, "do you want me to buy another string for you?"

xuan yin hesitated for a moment, looking at the string of candied haws in her hand. she did feel that it wasn't quite enough, and it would be better to have another string, but...

"no need!"

"one string is enough," xuan yin turned her head slightly, raised her chin, and a faint trace of pride and stubbornness flashed in her eyes.

seeing her stubborn appearance, lu xun smiled bitterly and silently handed the candied haw meant for immortal miao feng directly to her. he gently said, "you eat this first, and later i'll buy another one for your master."

"i don't want to eat it. you forced me to eat," xuan yin snatched it from his hand, pressing her own face and speaking words she herself didn't quite believe.

lu xun didn't say much. he was already used to the her stubbornness. at first, he thought she was quite troublesome, but now he found her quite adorable. it was hard to imagine that a snake demoness who had lived for nearly four hundred years had a temper similar to that of a child.

in the following time,

the aloof little demoness became lu xun's little follower, sticking to him like a shadow. until she passed by a vendor selling hairpins, her gaze couldn't help but be drawn to one of the hairpins. she paused there for a moment, her eyes showing a faint desire. she glanced at him walking ahead and gently bit her lips before silently following.

"there was someone selling hairpins just now," the little demoness said casually.

"is that so?"

"do you want it?" lu xun asked.

"..."

"i don't want it!" the veiled xuan yin pouted her little mouth and said coldly, "if i want it, i'll buy it myself. no need to tell you."

having said that, she walked away with an imposing manner. however, after walking a few steps, she suddenly stopped, turned around, glared at lu xun behind her, and fiercely threatened, "if you don't give it to me, i'll chop off your head when we get back!"

"oh."

"i was just teasing you!" lu xun hurriedly ran over and stood beside the little demoness, gently coaxing, "how could i not give it to you? besides, if not you, then who should i give it to? should i give it to your master?"

"hmph!" xuan yin snorted coldly.

on the way back, xuan yin flew slowly, thinking about various things, all of which were related to a certain person.

she found that in her heart, where there used to be only her master and the little fox, now there was another person, and this person seemed to occupy a large part of her heart. even though she clearly dislikes him, she couldn't help but think of him, and even vaguely had feelings for him.

unconsciously, the two returned to the courtyard. xuan yin put away the meteor star sword and handed it directly to him, then walked away without looking back.

"wife!"

"your hairpin!" lu xun shouted.

xuan yin stopped her footsteps, turned around, and walked toward lu xun, snatching the green and white hairpin from him with a fierce look.

watching her figure recede, lu xun hurriedly shouted again, "aren't you going to give the candy-coated haws and date cakes to your master?"

"i didn't buy them." xuan yin coldly replied, then promptly disappeared from sight.

lu xun carried the various packages and returned to his room. he didn't linger and took two strands of candy-coated haws and a bundle of date cakes, then headed straight to where the big demoness lived.

"knock, knock, knock -"

he knocked on the door, and after a moment, immortal miao feng's voice came from inside, soft and a bit lazy. "is that xuan yin?"

"then come in."

lu xun took a deep breath, gently pushed open the door, and entered.
