There’s Something Wrong With These Demonic Women!

Chapter 69: Did You Secretly Take The Books

Who could resist a wife with a forked tongue?

Xu Xian must have thought the same way back then, right?

Lu Xun put aside his thoughts, looking at the mischievous little fox. Although he knew she was exaggerating a bit, overall, she wasn't entirely wrong. Once the big and little demoness revealed their true forms, considering his small physique… he probably wouldn't be able to handle it?

Hmm… the little demoness shouldn't be a problem. As for the big demoness, it all depends on fate.

"Water Basin Lamb is here~"

"Two esteemed guests… please enjoy."

The waiter brought over two bowls of Water Basin Lamb and also offered two pieces of flatbread, placing them in front of Lu Xun and the little fox. Xuan Shi's sensitive nose detected the wafting aroma, and her appetite was instantly aroused. She picked up her chopsticks and started devouring the lamb with gusto, completely shedding her cute and delicate appearance, now resembling a sturdy woman.

Lu Xun, who had snapped back to reality, watched the fox demoness voraciously eating in front of him. He reluctantly picked up his own bowl, scooted closer to her, and lightly stirred the lamb with his chopsticks, saying, "I'm not particularly fond of lamb."

The little fox lifted her head slightly, glanced at Lu Xun across from her, and didn't say anything. She continued to ladle food into her mouth, munching on the delicious lamb with enthusiasm.

Lu Xun picked up a piece of flatbread, dipped it into the lamb broth, took a small bite, and with each sip of the steaming broth and each bite of bread, he was savoring an exquisite pleasure. Of course… compared to the little fox, he couldn't quite measure up. Her enjoyment was on another level.

In a brief moment, the little fox finished all the lamb in her bowl and drank the broth to the last drop. She pulled out a handkerchief from somewhere, gently wiped the corners of her mouth, and then shouted to the waiter, "Bring us two more bowls of Water Basin Lamb, each with five portions of lamb."

This shout from the petite girl attracted the attention of many patrons in the restaurant. They stared wide-eyed at the young girl in the corner, unable to imagine… how such a dainty and beautiful girl could possibly have such a hearty appetite. She seemed to have just finished one bowl… and now she was ordering two more. The sheer quantity was even greater.

Lu Xun wasn't surprised at all. He calmly continued to enjoy his lamb broth and flatbread. After all, the little fox in front of him could eat as much as ten cows, let alone two more bowls of Water Basin Lamb. Even twenty bowls wouldn't be a problem.

"Is this bread tasty?" The little fox sniffed the piece of bread and asked Lu Xun in a puzzled tone.

"It's just regular bread. You can dip it in the soup or eat it with the lamb," Lu Xun explained.

"Oh…"

"Then forget it, I like meat."

The little fox immediately rejected the unadorned piece of bread and opted for the tender and succulent lamb. She raised her arm, resting her cheek in her palm, gazing quietly at Lu Xun. Her short legs swung back and forth as she softly said, "Actually, you do like eating lamb… am I right?"

"…"

"You know the answer, why ask?" Lu Xun replied calmly.

"I was just asking casually." Xuan Shi pursed her lips and murmured, "Lu Xun… I used to really dislike you, because you took away my sister Xuan Yin. But now… my perception of you has changed a bit. Of course… I still dislike you a little, but… but…"

At this point, the little fox lightly bit her lip and slowly said, "Don't get too proud. Keep up the effort."

Lu Xun didn't pay any attention to her. He continued to eat the bread and drink the soup on his own until the waiter brought over two more bowls of Water Basin Lamb. The petite fox took half of the meat from one of the bowls and put it into his.

"Here's yours." After muttering to herself, the little fox resumed munching on the lamb.

"Ah…"

"Did you secretly take the three books from under my pillow?" Lu Xun suddenly asked.

As soon as he finished speaking, the little fox trembled all over, a strong sense of shame engulfing her. She blushed deeply, lowered her head, and stammered, "I… I thought they were some incredible secret manuals, so I… I took those three books. Who knew… who knew they were all indecent things."

After saying that, she abruptly lifted her small head, glared at the annoying man in front of her, and huffed, "I haven't even asked you yet. Why were you sneaking around reading such books?"

"Of course, I was studying."

"What did you think I was going to do with them?" Lu Xun grinned teasingly, "If I don't study now, how am I going to deal with your sister Xuan Yin in the future?"

Huh?

Studying?

Dealing with Xuan Yin?

The little fox recalled the various contents in those miniature drawings, and in an instant… both sides of her cheeks were burning.

This darned annoying man!

He actually… actually dared to bully Sister Xuan Yin like this!

Xuan Shi glared at the man in front of her with indignation, gritting her teeth and saying, "You… you dare to bully Sister Xuan Yin, I… I'll chop you into pieces and feed you to the dogs."

"Is there a possibility…"

"Your Sister Xuan Yin is looking forward to it?" Lu Xun asked meaningfully.

"Huh?" The little fox was taken aback, staring at him like a wooden chicken.

"Just kidding."

"Go ahead and eat." Lu Xun smiled at the little fox and picked up some lamb, stuffing it into the bread and eating slowly.

The little fox held the chopsticks, prodding at the lamb in her bowl. Her mind drifted back to that night when she hid under the blanket. Xuan Yin had looked so eager then. It seemed… it seemed that what the annoying man had said might be true, and she… she might really be looking forward to it.

Sigh… Xuan Yin's heart belonged to him now.

So, in the future, she could only rely on her Master. How agonizing!

…

…

After having fun with the little fox for a long time, as night approached, Lu Xun urged her to go back. However, the playful little fox resisted, refusing to leave. No matter how he tried to persuade her, she wouldn't budge. In the end, Lu Xun had no choice but to take her to find an inn.

Though the town wasn't large, it had everything one would expect. They quickly found an inn and stepped into the lobby, where the innkeeper's assistant warmly greeted them.

"Guests?"

"Are you looking for a meal or a place to stay?" the assistant asked.

"We're staying."

"Give us two guest rooms," Lu Xun said.

The assistant apologetically replied, "Oh… I'm sorry, honored guest. We only have one room left."

"…"

"Let's try another place." The little fox gently tugged at Lu Xun's sleeve and whispered to him.

"There are a few other inns nearby, but their standards aren't as high as ours. We offer a hot bath service for just one silver coin," the assistant quickly added. "We'll deliver the hot water to your room."

Hearing about the possibility of a hot bath, the little fox's heart fluttered. However, there was only one room available. While it wouldn't be an issue to be alone in a room with him, considering she had even hidden in his bed before, she couldn't possibly take a bath with him in the room, right?
