Chapter 721: A Sweet Smell
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Liu Yuanyuan’s expression was cold. “Come and start the fire. We’ll kill the chicken and stew it.”
Su Yanyu carried two chickens and said, “Miss Yuanyuan, 1’11 go kill the chickens.”
Su Yanyu did not dare to look Liu Yuanyuan in the eyes and carried the chickens to the backyard.
Hu Yu sniffed and her eyes suddenly lit up. “Wait, did something happen between you and Young Marquis?”
Hu Yu walked around Liu Yuanyuan and observed her carefully. Liu Yuanyuan was wearing a black gauze dress. She was naturally beautiful, and her innate coldness gave people a sense of alienation. However, why did she smell the sweetness of love?
Liu Yuanyuan frowned. “Are you a dog?”
Hu Yu sniffed and narrowed her fox-like eyes. “Liu Yuanyuan, are you in love?”
Liu Yuanyuan’s expression was cold. “You’re crazy.”
She had never thought of having love in her life. She only had one goal in this life, and that was to transform into a dragon and ascend.
Hu Yu smiled. “Don’t deny it. Our foxes are especially sensitive to the smell of love. Other than Venerable Chu, the only man you know is the Young Marquis, right?”
Hu Yu seemed to have discovered a shocking secret. She looked at Liu Yuanyuan with an enlightened expression.
Liu Yuanyuan did not want to hear Hu Yu’s nonsense anymore, so she walked into the kitchen. Hu Yu followed.
“I remember now. You were angry with me for Young Marquis before. 1 was wondering why you were being a busybody. It turns out that you’re interested in him.”
The more Hu Yu thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case.
Liu Yuanyuan’s expression was cold. “Hu Yu, there are some things I’ll only say once. I’m warning you. It’s because Su Yanyu is Venerable Liu’s disciple. At least until now, he’s still the only disciple. We follow Venerable Liu and serve her. Shame on you for bullying him.”
She helped Su Yanyu because of this. In her world, there was only cultivation. Other than that, she didn’t care about anything else.
Su Yanyu was just a mortal. How could she ruin her cultivation for him?
If humans were trapped by love, they would do anything. Demons were the same, so it was best not to get involved.
Hu Yu looked at Liu Yuanyuan who was extremely serious and was about to flare up. She stuck out her tongue. “Humph, let’s see how long you can hide it.”
“It’s not a bad thing to fall in love. After this life is over and he dies, you can continue your cultivation.”
Hu Yu muttered softly. Liu Yuanyuan was indeed terrifyingly calm.
Hu Yu thought for a moment before running out.
Su Yanyu was killing chickens, and his face was red. The more he didn’t want to think about it, the more his mind was filled with that scene.
Hu Yu patted him from behind. Su Yanyu jumped up with a fright. “All, who is it?”
Seeing that it was Hu Yu, Su Yanyu said respectfully, “Miss Hu, what can 1 do for you?”
Hu Yu looked at Su Yanyu’s dodging gaze and narrowed her eyes. “What’s on your mind? You are behaving strangely.”
She sniffed. It was obvious what Su Yanyu was thinking. He went out with Liu Yuanyuan. Did something happen when they went out?
Su Yanyu skinned chicken as he replied calmly, “There is nothing on my mind. Miss Hu, you are overthinking.”
Hu Yu said playfully, “Young Marquis, Liu Yuanyuan was very angry just now. Did you molest her? Be careful. She might slither up to your bed and strangle you to death.”
Su Yanyu quickly explained incoherently, “I didn’t do it on purpose. 1 didn’t mean to take advantage of her…”
Hu Yu’s eyes lit up. “Haha, 1 knew something must have happened between you and Liu Yuanyuan. Tell me quickly, or 1’11 kill you now!”
Hu Yu bared her teeth threateningly. Her hands turned into furry claws that looked extremely sharp.
Su Yanyu was shocked. “No, nothing happened. 1 just accidentally bumped into Miss Yuanyuan on the street, but 1 apologized.”
Hu Yu was stunned. “That’s it?”
If that was it, why did they act like they had an affair?
Su Yanyu nodded. “That’s it. Nothing else.”
Hu Yu patted Su Yanyu’s shoulder. “I was wondering why the smell between the two of you was different. It turns out that it’s only unidirectional. It’s a pity that you will not have a chance.”
Su Yanyu’s expression was a little complicated. He looked at Hu Yu regretfully. “Miss Hu, do I really not have a chance at all?”
Su Yanyu’s anxious expression turned dejected. There was a difference between a human and a demon. He shouldn’t have had such thoughts in the first place.
Hu Yu patted Su Yanyu’s shoulder. “Don’t be discouraged. There’s an old saying that little strokes fell great oaks.”
Su Yanyu smiled bitterly. “Miss Yuanyuan is focused on cultivating. I shouldn’t disturb her.”
Hu Yu looked at him. “Let me ask you, do you know what will happen when humans and demons are together?”
Su Yanyu shook his head. “I don’t know.”
Before this, he had never thought that he would fall in love with Liu Yuanyuan. He was afraid of her.
However, at some point, he was no longer afraid and wanted to treat her well. He had been hiding his thoughts very well until he suddenly bumped into her, causing his feelings to overflow.
Hu Yu explained to Su Yanyu, “It’s a taboo to fall in love with humans. This is because humans can only live for decades, but demons can live for hundreds or thousands of years. We can still be young and beautiful when you get old and ugly.”
Hu Yu touched her cheeks smugly. “Look at me, don’t I look like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl? Actually, I’m already more than three hundred years old.”
Hu Yu looked at Su Yanyu who was listening attentively and sighed. “Humans have obsessions and so do demons. If she can’t let go of you after you die, her cultivation will stagnate. She might even do something against the heavens..”
