Chapter 812: Did You Marry Her in Your Previous Life?
Lin Nuo was always astonishing with his words and actions, leaving people baffled.
This female disciple, who had spent a long time with him, didn’t even know her master’s true identity.
That wasn’t even the craziest part; the ridiculous part was that this girl, who was determined to marry someone else, still didn’t know the true identity of her beloved.
It was as if she was kept in the dark, completely unaware.
This made it seem like Lin Nuo was deliberately deceiving the girl, hiding the truth from her.
“Aren’t you going to tell her?” Liu Shuqin asked.
“She will find out eventually; no need for me to say anything.”
“But saying that makes it feel like you’re deceiving her…”
“We are Demon Practitioners; don’t measure us with your Xuanyun Sect standards. Besides, if I had said early on that I’m Lin Nuo from the Xuanyun Sect, would I even have a chance to get close to her?”
“I thought she was approaching you deliberately; turns out you were the one pursuing her. Seems like she really attracts you, huh?”
A hint of jealousy laced Liu Shuqin’s words; it would be impossible for her not to care.
“She’s a good seedling, worth nurturing. Besides, can you be completely honest with someone? I doubt it; everyone has secrets and hidden troubles.”
Lin Nuo said, yawning involuntarily. Liu Shuqin was becoming more and more spirited, while he felt sleepy, the warm bed made it hard to resist, especially with the soft beauty beside him. He was just tempted to sleep soundly.
“Have you asked all your questions? Can I sleep a bit more?”
“Alright, I won’t bother you; sleep well.”
Liu Shuqin gently patted Lin Nuo’s hair, no longer asking him anything, allowing him to rest properly.
The Demon Woman was indeed Lin Nuo’s perfect match according to his previous life’s standards.
But did he actually marry her in that life?
Right, did he?
Suddenly remembering something important, Liu Shuqin roused Lin Nuo from his drowsiness.
“What now…”
Sleepy Lin Nuo grumbled, wondering what was with this woman, stirring around like this.
She didn’t want something more again, did she? Was she trying to wear him out?
“Husband, according to what you said, she fits your criteria, so in your previous life, was she your wife? Did you get married?”
“Married my foot, I’m single, nobody likes me.”
Lin Nuo quickly shrank into the blanket, too lazy to respond to her, finding her bothersome.
“Okay, I won’t disturb you anymore.”
Liu Shuqin tidied up the blanket for Lin Nuo. Now he was leaning against her, wanting nothing more than sleep while Liu Shuqin lay beside him, gazing up at the wooden ceiling.
The outdoor night was quiet, and her mind swirled with thoughts. She was homeless now, yet had to venture to an unknown place to confront the ferocious Demon Beasts.
It seemed too cruel.
But…
If she didn’t go through these experiences, how could she understand Lin Nuo’s state of mind and feelings?
Without understanding, how could she move him?
Knowing about Ling Meng had only intensified Liu Shuqin’s resolve to turn Lin Nuo around.
It was obvious that if it came to matching backgrounds, Ling Meng was the best fit.
So, her position was likely lower.
If she could turn him back, accompany him during his confusion, and help him return to a better life, surely she would be the one he treasured most.
Indeed, for the sake of her position, she needed to work hard.
…
The next morning, bright sunlight streamed through the window, illuminating Lin Nuo’s face.
The forest air in the morning was exceptionally fresh, invigorating one’s spirit.
Lin Nuo slowly opened his drowsy eyes; after a night’s rest, he felt full of energy. Though his sleep was short, he recovered swiftly without any issues.
He got up only to find Liu Shuqin was missing.
Where did she go?
At that moment, a delicious aroma wafted in, and his stomach gurgled in response.
This was breakfast!
“You’re awake.”
At that moment, Liu Shuqin brought over a nutritious green breakfast for Lin Nuo—a mix of porridge, bread, soy milk, and noodles—varied and appetizing, making him eager to eat.
“How long have you been up?” Lin Nuo asked, stretching as he prepared to get dressed.
“I’ve been up for about half an hour. Did I wake you?” Liu Shuqin said, putting down the plate and swiftly helping Lin Nuo into his clothes, caring for him just as attentively as Ruo’er would.
“I woke up naturally. You really are an early riser. It’s fine, I can dress myself.”
Lin Nuo adeptly put on his clothes, and then Liu Shuqin brought a basin of warm water in front of him. She had gotten up early, groomed herself, prepared breakfast, and even made sure he had warm water ready. She was well-prepared.
“Really, you don’t need to go to such lengths.”
“I’m just doing it out of convenience; come on, husband, wash up.”
Liu Shuqin smiled, enjoying the process of preparing a heartwarming, nutritious breakfast for her husband and helping him get ready to start the day energetically.
After Liu Shuqin assisted Lin Nuo in washing up, he felt much more refreshed.
“Let’s have breakfast.”
Lin Nuo was about to head to the table when Liu Shuqin placed her hands on his shoulders.
“Husband, before enjoying breakfast, why not enjoy some of me first?”
Without hesitation, Liu Shuqin kissed him; morning kisses between couples were a must.
Lin Nuo didn’t resist. They’d been intimate several times that night, so this kiss was merely playful.
He wrapped his arms around her slim waist, and after a short kiss, they pulled apart.
Liu Shuqin leaned against Lin Nuo’s chest. After a moment, she lifted her head, gazing at him with affectionate eyes, her delicate hand brushing against his face.
“Husband, please eat.”
“Okay.”
With that, they sat at the dining table, enjoying the bountiful meal.
“Husband, are you really going to eliminate that Demon Spirit?”
“Its existence is a risk, plus it’s always chattering. Don’t you find it annoying? It mocks, belittles, and misleads people.”
“Not really. In fact, it’s quite nice. It can be considered a decent friend.”
As Liu Shuqin spoke, she served Lin Nuo a bowl of porridge, tore off a piece of bread, and held it up to his mouth.
“I can do it myself.”
“Let me feed you; isn’t that what couples do?”
“Even couples don’t do this kind of thing much; it feels too intimate.”
“Isn’t that bad? Do you dislike me, husband?” Liu Shuqin’s words carried a hint of resentment.
“Forget it, pretend I didn’t say anything.”
Lin Nuo opened his mouth and bit into the piece of bread, chewing thoughtfully.
Liu Shuqin’s cooking was quite good; she was gentle and capable, the ideal supportive wife.
However, this was only a fleeting moment. There were no women like this among the Demon Practitioners, and if there were, they would turn dark eventually.
“You really are naive to consider the Demon Spirit a friend.”
“Not really, I’m just telling the truth. Can you not eliminate it? That’d be too much of a waste.”
“Do whatever you want.”
Lin Nuo said indifferently; he had always indulged Liu Shuqin.
