Chapter 127: Fulfilling the Engagement X Husband

Around the Ice and Fire Spirituel Eyes, some rare and exotic plants emitted a faint light.

Dugu Yan's gaze also turned in that direction, landing on the two ice coffins in the cold spring.

After a moment of silence, Dugu Yan took Ye Qiu's hand, attempting to pull him up.

"Ye Qiu, come with me."

"Go where?"

Ye Qiu stood up with Dugu Yan, heading towards the half-milky cold spring.

"Miss Dugu, don't get too close!" When they approached, Ye Qiu stopped her.

Dugu Yan stood still, looking at her sleeping parents, lost in thought.

"Ye Qiu, in fact, the engagement Grandpa talked about is likely fake!" Although Ye Qiu might be aware of this, Dugu Yan wanted to make it clear now.

"I know, but... what does it matter now if it's true or false! It's not important anymore." Ye Qiu smiled, holding her hand a little tighter.

"Yeah! You're right!" Dugu Yan nodded, looking at Ye Qiu, wanting to say something more.

Even though there was a chill in the air, her face remained warm. After a moment of hesitation, she leaned close to Ye Qiu's ear, lips slightly parted.

"What! Wedding ceremony!?"

Hearing her words, Ye Qiu was shocked, looking at Dugu Yan in disbelief. He didn't expect her to propose such a request.

"Is it not okay?" Dugu Yan approached, holding his arm, looking at him nervously.

"Of course not, but... this is too fast, right!? Moreover, Dugu senior is not here!"

"What are you thinking? Grandpa has nothing to do with this! I just want to share this good news with my parents. Don't think a simple ceremony can brush me off!" Dugu Yan explained to Ye Qiu.

"I see, alright!" Ye Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and smiled, extending his hand towards Dugu Yan.

Dugu Yan also smiled, placing her soft hand in Ye Qiu's.

Both were novices at this, and calling it a wedding ceremony might be an exaggeration. They only knew about the three bows.

The whole process was not too formal. There were no veils, red flowers, or other items. The first two bows were just holding hands, bowing towards the ice coffins in the cold spring.

During the final bow, the two stood facing each other. Ye Qiu felt a strange sensation as he looked at the girl in front of him.

Dugu Yan also seemed radiant, even in the dim light. They slowly bent down, bowing to each other. When they stood up, a graceful figure rushed towards Ye Qiu.

Dugu Yan tiptoed, hugged Ye Qiu's neck, and leaned on his shoulder.

"Husband~" Her breath was sweet, with a hint of coquetry, shyness, and joy. The way she called him made Ye Qiu's bones turn soft, standing there dazed.

"Hehe." Dugu Yan chuckled, pulling Ye Qiu a bit further away, spreading the blanket she had brought on the ground and sitting down with him.

She nestled into Ye Qiu's arms, placing his hands on her abdomen, her gentle voice transmitting from the chest to his ears.

"Husband~ Shall we finish what we didn't finish last night!"

"What?! Miss, Miss Dugu, isn't this too fast? I'm at this age..."

Hearing this, Ye Qiu couldn't help but shudder. Goosebumps were about to appear on his body, and his body temperature rose significantly.

Dugu Yan tilted her blushing face and realized she might have been too hasty. She hesitated for a moment and then leaned to Ye Qiu's ear, her vermilion lips slightly opened.

"What! The bridal chamber!?"

After hearing her words, Ye Qiu was shocked and looked at Dugu Yan in amazement. He didn't expect her to suggest such a thing.

"Is it not okay?" Dugu Yan approached, hugged his arm, looking at him nervously.

"Of course not, but... this... this is too fast, right!? Besides, Dugu senior is not here!"

"What are you thinking? Grandpa has nothing to do with this! I just want to share this good news with my parents. Don't think a simple bridal chamber can brush me off!"

Dugu Yan pouted, explaining to Ye Qiu.

"I won't! Miss Dugu, how could I reject you?" Ye Qiu grabbed her hand, holding her tightly, responding earnestly.

The two sat quietly on the blanket, and the term "husband" felt a bit unfamiliar to Ye Qiu, so he had her change it.

"Alright, what should you call me then!?"

"Dugu... um!" Ye Qiu paused in the middle of his words.

"Humph! Ye Qiu! Call me Yan Yan, just like we did on the first day we met! Don't call me Miss Dugu again!"

Dugu Yan snorted, and her voice gradually softened. After saying that, she even gave Ye Qiu a sweet kiss.

"Yeah, I got it, Yan Yan~"

"How about we lie down?"

"Sure!"

The night passed slowly, and the two didn't return to their rooms, opting to sleep outside.

Dugu Yan didn't close her eyes all night, lying in Ye Qiu's arms, quietly watching Ye Qiu, whose steady breathing indicated he was already asleep.

He was tired. Controlling the sacrificial offering of soul beasts consumed a lot of mental energy. The impact of soul power on the heart when he activated the Miniature Ice and Fire Spirituel Eyes also caused damage to his meridians and organs. There was also some remaining cold energy.

...

The night had passed, and the first rays of sunlight had risen on the horizon, dispelling the lingering cold.

Ye Qiu, still a bit drowsy, found his lips slightly moist, with a hint of a young girl's fragrance.

"Ye Qiu, I'm a bit hungry!"

Slowly opening his eyelids, Ye Qiu saw Dugu Yan, seemingly having tidied up herself, changed into a black fitted outfit, leaning beside him, gazing at him affectionately.

"Miss Dugu."

"Ye Qiu!" Dugu Yan's smiling face disappeared, and she glared at him, "What did you call me!?"

"Yan Yan~"

"Gurgle~"

Her loud shout made Ye Qiu wake up a bit more. He quickly changed his address, and his stomach also protested.

Dugu Yan's originally resentful eyes suddenly narrowed, and she looked at Ye Qiu with a smile again.

"It seems you're hungry too!"

"Yeah!" Ye Qiu nodded. They hadn't eaten much last night; they had almost started a big battle instead.

Seeing Ye Qiu sit up, Dugu Yan also timely approached, squeezing into his arms.

"How about we have some pastries first! I'll freshen up later and then take you to the academy."

Ye Qiu took out a delicate brocade box from the Divine Might Space. Opening it revealed rows of pastries.

"Sounds good! Here~" Dugu Yan picked up a piece and handed it to Ye Qiu, her movements looking very natural.

Come to think of it, they seemed to have been doing this mutual feeding thing for the past half-year.

Ye Qiu also picked up a piece, handing it to Dugu Yan's mouth. She had the same feeling.

Originally, she thought Ye Qiu would fulfill the unfounded engagement just out of a sense of responsibility. However, after a night of contemplation, she realized that Ye Qiu must like her. He knew what she liked and disliked. It was just that he was uncertain himself.

His usual care for her couldn't be deceptive.

"Eh? Where did this come from?"

When Dugu Yan picked up another pastry, she suddenly discovered that each piece had the character 'Qiu' on one side and the character 'Rong' on the other.

"Hmm? Oh, these were made by Rong Rong!" Ye Qiu was slightly surprised but quickly gave an answer.

"Ning Rong Rong?!" Dugu Yan looked puzzled, finding it hard to believe that the rumored Little Witch could make such exquisite and delicious things.

"Yes, who else besides her!"

Seeing Ye Qiu's joyful expression, Dugu Yan's face turned cold. "Hmph, what's so great? I can make them too in the future!"

"Hehe~" Ye Qiu chuckled awkwardly, realizing he had brought up a sensitive topic.

"Alright, stop eating. Quickly freshen up!"

...

Watching Ye Qiu's back, Dugu Yan sneered as she looked at the pastries in her hand.

She remembered how Ning Rong Rong prevented Xiao Lan from coming back to accompany her, and how she deliberately provoked herself by letting Ye Qiu bring back the ' dirty things.'

"Humph, Ning Rong Rong, just wait for me!"

She had almost shared a bridal chamber with Ye Qiu. Calling him her husband, she had already taken the lead by a large margin.

Next time they meet, she would make sure Ning Rong Rong had a hard time! She must make her look good!
