"You little slicker, getting crafty and cutting corners?" Yu Longting settled the bill and called Lin Hang to come pick me up.
I mumbled beside him, "My craftiness and slick ways, aren't they encouraged by a certain Snake Lord? He's so good to me."
"Wife, I should treat you even better, pamper you like the Empress Dowager, hahaha..."
Entertained by his own fantasy, Yu Longting's sense of urgent crisis lessened significantly, and he laughed heartily as he tousled my hair.
I had a face full of black lines. Have you ever watched a period drama?
Do you know that the Empress Dowager refers to herself as 'this old one'?
It's the type who has lost their husband!
Lin Hang finally arrived to pick me up.
Only then did Yu Longting feel at ease to leave. "I'll just be at the sect for a few days, I'll be back soon."
"Mmm, mmm, mmm," I nodded vigorously.
On the way to the Lin Family's place.
