The Amnesiac, Sickly Beauty Is Pregnant With My Dragon Cub - Chapter 41.3

 Cang Lan didn’t care if people were around. She embraced Yu Xuanji from behind and pressed her lips against her neck, sucking and nibbling hard to leave a bright red hickey.

Yu Xuanji felt a sharp pain from the suction and fell back involuntarily, complaining, “A-Lan, it’s broad daylight. The sun hasn’t even set. What are you doing?”

Cang Lan smiled innocently. “I just haven’t kissed my wife for a long time. I have a craving—craving my wife’s body. I want to eat my wife.”

Yu Xuanji’s brow furrowed, and she couldn’t help but shiver. Such blunt, lewd words were spoken with a pair of eyes that were exceptionally pure and innocent. It made her whole-body tremble, her legs going soft as she leaned into Cang Lan.

Feeling Cang Lan’s hand moving toward her abdomen, Yu Xuanji quickly pushed her away, nearly falling into the stream. “A-Lan, not here.”

Cang Lan tilted her head like an alert predator. She surveyed the surroundings and said, “But my wife said as long as no one is around, it’s fine. There’s no one around now.”

Yu Xuanji couldn’t help but laugh. “When did I ever say such a thing? Even if I did, I meant at home where you can do as you, please. It’s broad daylight, and the sun won’t set for a while. Tushan Bai and the others will come to call us for dinner soon. It would be bad if we were caught.”

Cang Lan lowered her eyes, not indicating whether she had listened. Yu Xuanji took the opportunity to pull Cang Lan’s hand out from under her clothes and said, “Alright, what you did today was indeed a bit much. Although the little skeleton has deep cultivation, it’s not good to play with her like that. What if you gave her a fracture? Tushan Bai would extort us then.”

Seeing Cang Lan nod as if she had taken it to heart, Yu Xuanji smiled and said, “Let’s go. We’ll go back and help them cook. We can’t just eat for free when visiting someone’s home; we’ll have no friends left otherwise.”

Cang Lan said nothing, and Yu Xuanji took it as agreement.

Back at Tushan Bai’s house, Yu Xuanji led Cang Lan to the kitchen. They found Tushan Bai stir-frying dishes while the little skeleton sat obediently in front of the stove, adding firewood. The fox and the skeleton were quite in sync.

However, once Cang Lan joined in, all that harmony turned into Tushan Bai’s resentment.

In the kitchen, Yu Xuanji chopped vegetables while Tushan Bai prepared the fish she had caught, making cross-cuts to prepare crispy fried fish.

Every time Tushan Bai fried a piece and put it in a wooden basin, a hand would reach out and quietly swipe the fried fish.

Fish had bones, and Cang Lan hated fish bones.

Previously, when Yu Xuanji had made fish soup for her, she had devoured half a fish only to get a bone as long as a knuckle stuck in her throat. Yu Xuanji had eventually fished it out with chopsticks.

Thinking of this, Cang Lan beckoned to the little skeleton who was tending the fire and stuffed the cleaned-off fish bones into her mouth.

Tushan Bai and Yu Xuanji were chatting when Tushan Bai suddenly noticed the evil dragon was missing from her sight. A quick glance showed the freshly fried fish in the basin were all gone. “Eh? Where are my fried fish?”

Yu Xuanji was about to look, but her sleeve was pulled by Cang Lan. Suddenly, Cang Lan sprang up and fed Yu Xuanji a mouthful of sweet, fresh fish meat, lingering to lick her lips for a while before letting go.

When an evil dragon is quiet, she must be up to no good.

Tushan Bai immediately guessed who was responsible. She turned and saw Cang Lan stuffing a fish bone into the little skeleton’s mouth.

“Ah—”

Tushan Bai could no longer take it. She let out a scream, grabbed a kitchen knife, and prepared for a final showdown with Cang Lan.

Yu Xuanji blocked Tushan Bai, saying apologetically, “It’s my lack of discipline. Rest assured, it won’t happen again.”

Tushan Bai raged, “Stealing food is one thing, but feeding her the bones while she happily eats the meat herself!”

Hiding behind Yu Xuanji, Cang Lan poked half her head out and said as if it were natural, “Do you think this King is stupid? Should I eat fish bones instead of meat?”

Tushan Bai ground her molars, the veins on her forehead bulging. She shut the kitchen door, locking Yu Xuanji and Cang Lan outside.

Before closing the door, Tushan Bai said through gritted teeth, “Yu Xuanji, I admit you are the most incredible person in the world, because only you can tolerate this evil dragon. Thank goodness you subdued her. Thank you for feeding the dragon with your body and removing a scourge for the people. You’ve done so many good deeds. I wish you a harmonious union for a hundred years, many children, and to never be apart!”

At dinner, Yu Xuanji and Cang Lan sat together, while Tushan Bai and the little skeleton sat together.

Cang Lan first took the finest, most tender belly meat from the steamed fish. After carefully picking out every single bone, she placed it in Yu Xuanji’s bowl and said with a grin, “Eat some fish, Wife. You’ve worked hard today.”

Tushan Bai rolled her eyes and said sarcastically, “Oh, so your wife is the one who worked hardest today? Why don’t you look at who made this whole table of food? How dare you say that.”

Cang Lan swayed her head and continued to put food into Yu Xuanji’s bowl every few seconds.

Watching her bowl pile up into a small mountain, Yu Xuanji helplessly put down her chopsticks and held Cang Lan’s hand. “A-Lan, I can’t eat anymore if you keep adding.”

Cang Lan leaned in with a smile and kissed Yu Xuanji’s cheek, getting oil all over her. “If you can’t finish it, I will. I like eating my wife’s leftovers.”

Without a word, Tushan Bai put a bit of everything into her bowl, took her bowl in one hand and held the skeleton’s hand with the other, then turned and went up to the roof.

Cang Lan giggled and clung to Yu Xuanji’s arm, refusing to let go even while eating. Yu Xuanji had to learn how to use chopsticks with her left hand, as she was never sure which of her hands Cang Lan would hold.

Sometimes Yu Xuanji thought that since she lost her heart-protecting scale, it was as if she were missing a nerve.

Cang Lan said, “The smelly fox is gone. Wife, let’s eat slowly.”

After dinner, Cang Lan refused to leave Tushan Bai’s house. Ultimately, Tushan Bai had no choice but to prepare a side room for these two untouchables “living ancestors.”

Yu Xuanji sat on the bed reading, while Cang Lan entered with a basin of hot water. She placed it by the bed, held Yu Xuanji’s ankles, and skillfully removed her shoes and socks.

Her cold feet were submerged in the warm water. Cang Lan lowered her head, focusing on washing Yu Xuanji’s feet. Her fingers occasionally brushed against her ticklish spots, making her want to pull away.

After soaking for a while, Cang Lan took out a soft towel and carefully dried Yu Xuanji’s feet.

Yu Xuanji’s hands and feet were both long and beautiful, her skin fair and delicate. Her knuckles and toes had a faint pink tint, which became more pronounced after the hot soak.

Seeing Cang Lan staring at her feet, Yu Xuanji felt a sudden impulse. she raised her right leg and pressed her foot against Cang Lan’s chin, using it to tilt her head up.

The moment Cang Lan raised her eyes, their gazes met, and Yu Xuanji clearly saw the surging desire in the depths of her eyes.

Yu Xuanji was stunned for a moment. Unseen, she slowly curled half her lip and suddenly retracted her lower leg.

Cang Lan grabbed her soft, white feet with both hands. Yu Xuanji felt tickled and couldn’t help but kick her lightly on the shoulder, laughing, “A-Lan, what are you doing?”

Cang Lan’s fingers gently kneaded Yu Xuanji’s instep. Seeing her struggling to escape, she gripped tighter.

Initially, Yu Xuanji thought Cang Lan was just playing, but as the pressure increased and the other began to knead her feet almost punitively, she realized Cang Lan seemed to be angry.

Cang Lan continued to press against her soles. Yu Xuanji gripped the bedding beneath her in discomfort, biting her lip and not daring to make a sound. The wooden house wasn’t soundproof; she was terrified her voice would leak out and be heard by Tushan Bai and the others.

But Cang Lan, knowing this full well, increased the pressure further. One hand moved up her calf, and she asked with a smile, “How does the pressure feel, Wife?”

Yu Xuanji didn’t know what was wrong with Cang Lan. She had been distracted since dinner. She could only nod and say, “Good.”

Cang Lan smiled. “Does my wife think my hands are softer, or Tushan Bai’s?”

Yu Xuanji was completely stunned by this. She instinctively curled her leg, but she was pinned by Cang Lan, who pounced and slowly forced her legs apart, wedging a thigh between them.

Cang Lan continued, “Wife, speak. Am I softer, or is she?”

Pressed into the corner, Yu Xuanji asked in confusion, “A-Lan, what is wrong with you today? Why—”

Suddenly, Yu Xuanji was pinned to the bed by Cang Lan. The smiling woman before her was like a predator, ready to bite her neck at any moment.

Cang Lan maintained her grin, her golden pupils suddenly turning into dangerous slits. She asked relentlessly, “My wife held hands with Tushan Bai today. Did it feel good?”

Yu Xuanji’s heart skipped a beat. “A-Lan, it’s not what you think. We were just—”

Cang Lan stared at her. “Just what? Why did you hold hands? Why did you avoid me to do it? In what way is she better than me? Is she as good at serving you as I am? Does she help you wash your feet, bathe you, dress you, or warm your bed?”

Yu Xuanji shook her head decisively.

Cang Lan asked, “Is she as beautiful as I am?”

Yu Xuanji quickly shook her head. “No.”

Cang Lan asked again, “Does she have a better body than me?”

Yu Xuanji shook her head vigorously. “No!”

Cang Lan continued, “Then is she more talented than me?”

Yu Xuanji was momentarily speechless. But Cang Lan acutely caught her awkwardness and pressed down on her waist and thighs.

Seeing Yu Xuanji trying to sit up, Cang Lan pressed a hand against her abdomen and sneered, “I knew it! You think I’m uncultured. Just because she dotted those eyes today… dotting eyes isn’t hard, I can do it too!”

Yu Xuanji wrapped her arms around Cang Lan’s neck and whispered in her ear, “I never said you weren’t good, nor did I say she was better. From beginning to end, I have always been on your side. Can’t you tell?”

Cang Lan turned her head away sulkily, her neck stiff. “I can’t.”

Yu Xuanji leaned in and kissed her on the lips and chin. Cang Lan pointed to the tip of her nose. “Here too.”

Seeing she was still angry, Yu Xuanji smiled, cupped her face, and kissed the tip of her nose and her brow, saying softly, “If you are truly unhappy, then punish me. You can do whatever you want, but… but it can’t be too much. We are in someone else’s home…”

Cang Lan’s eyes lit up. Dizzied and infatuated by these words, she soon lost her composure, and her grievance and anger vanished completely.

However, she was still jealous.

Just as Yu Xuanji thought she didn’t like the reward and was about to lie down, she was pulled out from the covers by Cang Lan’s arm around her waist.

Yu Xuanji’s ticklish spots were pinched again. She arched her back to escape, but was held tight by Cang Lan’s hands.

A second before her neck was bitten, Yu Xuanji heard Cang Lan say with a grin against her ear, “Then my wife must compensate me well tonight.”
