Chapter 101 (2/2): Absorbing the Cold Poison

Su Liumeng’s eyelid twitched faster. Whatever happened before, now it was definitely on purpose.

Who remembers how to tease when drunk?

Seeing Su Liumeng silent, I coyly covered my face and giggled as if I had done something very fun.

This knowingly adorable look made Su Liumeng want to spit out a mouthful of old blood and write the heaviest note in her little notebook.

Fine, be arrogant now.

I won’t argue with someone drunk on cold poison.

Wait three months and see how you cry.

I kept biting my fingertips, my pink little tongue flicking out to lick my porcelain hand.

Teasing Su Liumeng was quite fun too.

At this moment,

Holding this position,

Su Liumeng only had to bow her head slightly to see countless dazzling pale hues.

Who could be constantly seduced and show no reaction?

Su Liumeng silently shouted inside, almost losing control, roughly grabbing the girl’s arm. “Fine, since you’ve been wanting to know, what are my five great wishes?”

Su Liumeng’s breathing was heavy, invading with a domineering stance. “I’ll tell you now.”

“Since baby loves teasing me so much, then make yourself this year’s special gift.”

“Think about it—what places have I always forbidden you to touch? That’s my only wish.”

I—am the only gift?

All five wishes were me?

What five places cannot be touched?

Though my mind was foggy, I wasn’t dumb.

I naturally understood what Su Liumeng was doing.

Okay.

Seems it’s my fault.

Unintentionally doing something during a hangover probably made Su Liumeng a bit uncomfortable.

Since that’s the case—

I’d better satisfy her a little.

Out of basic spousal duty, I didn’t let her suffer too long.

I fluttered my delicate lashes, sensing Su Liumeng’s breathing rhythm.

Then, quietly calculating the time, after about five minutes, I reached out my small hand as usual.

Blushing lightly, I gently pushed away her waist.

At this moment, my eyes looked like a frightened fawn, tears full of temptation. I stared up at the girl above. “No, can’t continue. There are still important things to do.”

Fine, again like this…

Su Liumeng was nearly breaking down.

She now hated this phrase more than anything.

She knew that no matter how much she lowered herself, Xinxin would push her away with a fixed set of words.

She’d even raise her angelic face, as if magnanimous, and in her uniquely cute voice, seriously reason with her.

This irresistibly charming scene only uttered words of refusal.

How could Su Liumeng not break down?

This was one of the five wishes that was almost nightmarish to fulfill.

Su Liumeng, lost in thought, realized an undeniable fact.

Conquering Si Xinyan’s heart and conquering her body were two completely different things.

The former was just marriage.

It didn’t mean she could do everything freely.

Because Si Xinyan had her own principles.

For example, she believed touching places that made her beloved unhappy was extremely rude and must not happen.

That didn’t mean Si Xinyan didn’t like her—in fact, she cared deeply, worried about imperfections that might cause Su Liumeng to dislike her.

Their thoughts were never about the same thing.

For example, Si Xinyan’s traditional nature meant kisses were enough.

There was no endless clinging and slobber exchange.

More intimate moments, even a few months later, would likely only happen with the lights off, tasting lightly, never allowing unrestrained…

Phew, it’s actually fine…

Su Liumeng’s clenched fists never relaxed.

She had patience; she just needed to help her baby fully adapt to modern society. The relatively feudal mindset would gradually change.

Step by step, someday she would get the gift she wanted.

Back to reality.

Su Liumeng forced herself to breathe heavily, like a drowning person surfacing, trying to control the inner impulse.

Si Xinyan’s skin, dazzlingly white, made her bite her teeth. The next second, she cupped the girl’s face.

In the little fox’s mischievous eyes, she forcefully adjusted the face.

Su Liumeng looked at her seriously, emphasizing each word, “No more—don’t tempt me.”

“Do you hear me?”

“If you keep teasing me, you know the consequences…”

I stuck out my tongue a little.

No matter how many times, the obedient little girl who always showed her sweet side was slowly raising her small hand.

I bit my slightly chapped red lips, sounding a bit pitiful and sorry. “Sorry, I swear I really didn’t mean it just now…”

Maybe I went too far.

But I really wasn’t on purpose.

Just a bit drunk, completely unaware of what I was doing…

This scene made Su Liumeng’s eyes flash like she’d been electrocuted, instantly looking away to a corner.

Probably only Su Liumeng knew how tempting Si Xinyan looked.

Whether it was her fragile, delicate aura, or her seeming collapse at a mere breeze, the protectiveness it triggered.

A face angelically cute, and a devilish figure that made blood race.

Once she showed weakness, it easily awakened the beast within Su Liumeng.

The more obedient the look, the more innocent the eyes, the cuter the face,

The easier it was to stir up rage.

It seemed inevitable.

Compared to her, Si Xinyan was so small, able to be carried anywhere.

Her slender waist was still just a handful, seemingly easily torn apart by Su Liumeng’s overwhelming possessiveness.

Su Liumeng’s gaze darkened again, gripping her own small hands.

The surrounding coldness grew more chilling.

Frost had already formed thickly on the sheets.

“Mengmeng.” I somewhat forgot what had just happened, completely immersed in absorbing yin energy, slightly addicted to the happy feeling.

I was barely aware of the outside world, but recalling some recent exchanges, I asked with a dazed look, “You’ve been silent, thinking about something?”

Su Liumeng looked at my red lips and chuckled softly, pushing down her emotions. “What else? Of course, I’m thinking about how many stir-fry dishes you owe me.”

The more she endured now, the more principal she’d collect later.

At this moment,

Just collecting a little interest wasn’t enough.

She just didn’t know if, when the time came, her pure little girl would understand what she was saying now.

My big eyes blinked, unable to sync with her thoughts.

What nonsense.

This is… wanting to eat my dark cuisine again?

Su Liumeng’s tastes were truly unique.

Since she had the idea, I definitely had to satisfy it.

After returning to Beiqing, I’d make her some egg tarts.

I ignored Su Liumeng’s nonsense, fully immersed in my own work.

This was my lifelong cultivation plan; I temporarily had no time for Su Liumeng’s feast fantasies.

Being in the center of the cold air, I was surprisingly comfortable, like returning home or wandering a pristine forest. Taking a deep breath refreshed my mind sharply.

“Mhm, this is a comfortable scent.”

I indulged silently, smiling foolishly.

Absorbing yin energy through the air was no longer satisfying.

I pressed my increasingly flushed cheek against Su Liumeng’s clear contour again.

My small hand dropped to hug her waist, unwilling to let go.

My self-perceived clarity was not true clarity.

More like a drunk thinking they look radiant.

After a few minutes of pressing and absorbing yin energy,

“Baby, you smell so good.”

The sweet girl’s voice was soft, breath slightly labored and endearing.

Su Liumeng’s breath hitched again. Her once calm emotion stirred anew.

She knew, of course.

This girl wasn’t on purpose.

She was genuinely a bit drunk, with no other meaning—just wanting to talk.

But even just talking, her natural cuteness made Su Liumeng nearly unable to resist.

Su Liumeng’s expression grew more helpless.

This girl.

She seemed never to realize just how tempting she was.

Her natural expressions were already overwhelming.

Not to mention always clinging to her arm, whining coquettishly.

Who could resist?

Fine, Su Liumeng sighed inwardly.

Why bother arguing with someone drunk?

This girl wasn’t on purpose at all.

When she was clear-headed earlier, she even had some intention of teasing.

Now, her mind was mush.

Being able to talk normally was already impressive.

No wonder Su Liumeng lacked self-control.

Sleeping beside such a beautiful girl every day, yet nothing happening.

Managing to hold out until now without a single mistake.

Su Liumeng considered herself the strongest-willed person alive.

The girl paused, seeming to want to say something else, but hesitated, thinking a long time before finally gathering courage. She bit her juicy lips and tugged at Su Liumeng’s clothes, looking pitiful.

“Can I directly absorb the source of the cold energy?”

“Sorry…” The girl lowered her head, “I can’t reach that place.”

How could Su Liumeng resist such a posture? The soft, innocent, and wronged expression melted her heart instantly.

“It’s okay. Absorb wherever you want.” She waved generously.

Since having this treasure at home to absorb cold poison, she barely felt pain when the poison flared up and even felt a little like old wounds were being healed.

Under Su Liumeng’s watchful gaze, the girl took a cautious step forward.

She decisively lifted her skirt a bit, revealing several deep purple butterfly marks.

The dark color resembled a deep pool, captivating any observer’s gaze.

The girl twitched her small nose, as if smelling something delightful, her eyes sparkling like stars.

Su Liumeng smiled with affection. “Go ahead, absorb.”

As long as her baby was happy, Su Liumeng was happy.

A strange thrill spread through her heart.

Watching the girl cautiously inch forward was extremely interesting.

So this was how her baby behaved drunk.

She’d never seen Si Xinyan drink before.

Hmm… maybe after the daughter is born, they could try it too, discovering new possibilities.

Su Liumeng reined in her thoughts, focusing intently on the scene.

Black hair naturally draped over the thigh, the dark strands mingling with pale skin. No matter how stunning, nothing matched the girl’s flawless beauty at this moment.

The coolness touched even cooler.

I swallowed more yin-cold energy; the liquid essence flowed through my meridians, making me instinctively clench my small hand.

My pearl-like tiny toes curled upward, the perfect arch becoming even more visually seductive.

Su Liumeng, seeing this, instinctively reached out with slender fingers but recalled the girl’s famous one-word rule and forcibly restrained her desire.

Ah, so annoying!

Su Liumeng was about to lose it.

At this moment, she just wanted to unlock her phone and post on a certain forum: [How to make my already married wife realize that jade-like feet aren’t dirty and mustn’t be untouchable].

However.

Reality was cruel.

She couldn’t use her phone right now.

A fierce urgency rose in her heart.

It was a desire stronger than Si Xinyan’s own eagerness to return to the modern world.

Su Liumeng forced her gaze away from the shell-like pink place, swallowing hard with a loud gulp echoing through the room.

I looked up confused, my dazed voice soft and slightly unhappy. “Don’t disturb my cultivation. I haven’t swallowed yet. You keep swallowing on top of me—what are you trying to do?”

Su Liumeng spoke against her will, “It’s so dry, and I haven’t had water. I was just thinking about the taste of preserved plums.”

“Fine, think away.” I was too busy to care. I lowered my head again, my jet-black hair naturally falling with a slight tickling sensation.

Su Liumeng’s body stiffened more, wanting to end this torment but also reluctant to lose the moment’s interaction.

The skirt covered the difficult-to-speak area.

No problem.

Baby was completely immersed in her cultivation, too lazy to pay attention.

The yin energy accumulating in my meridians grew denser, nearly crystallizing into liquid particles—a change that occurs when cold reaches a certain concentration.

I estimated that once I broke through the Conduit Realm, I might leap directly to the Primordial Spirit Realm.

That was a bit scary.

Cultivating less than a year and already at the fourth realm, telling others might scare many old monsters.

Although the Second Life of the Innate Spirit lacked special supernatural powers, it was still the closest to its peak state. Even if the Original Spirit was ignorant, the talent remained terrifyingly unmatched.

Su Liumeng had three small butterflies.

These butterflies contained all the yin-cold energy she’d absorbed from the bottom of the ten-million-year cold pool. What I saw as a great tonic was like arsenic to her normal cultivator body.

At this moment, one butterfly was nearly dissipated.

Five minutes later.

I rubbed my belly and let out a cute, satisfied burp.

Completely different from before, I lay supine on the big bed, sprawled helplessly, my eyes heavy with exhaustion.

After absorbing so much yin energy, both spirit and body were near their limits.

Meanwhile,

Su Liumeng’s cold poison outbreak was nearing its end.

I no longer had to worry about wasting yin energy I couldn’t absorb.

“Full now.”

“Let me rest. Don’t disturb me.”

Su Liumeng’s eyes flickered with a strange emotion as she looked at the increasingly obedient figure before her.

The smile at the corner of her mouth was like a sea of the most dazzling March flowers, and she was the girl who picked only her favorite blossom from the sea.

Just one bloom, yet stunning enough to overshadow the whole sea—how could she not be satisfied?

“Sleep, sleep. You must be exhausted.” Su Liumeng gently covered the girl’s belly with a small quilt.

Her doting and tender movements seemed like practiced perfection.

“Don’t talk to me anymore.”

I mumbled a reply.

Already nearly drunk, I wasn’t even sure what I had just said.

With my tense thoughts suddenly relaxed, the next moment slipped into a sweet dream of reunion with my daughter.
