Chapter 1081: A Man Doesn’t Need to Keep Money in His Pocket
"Men don’t need to keep money in their pockets, give it all to my wife." The man waved his hand impatiently, as if swatting away flies.
The short man before him reluctantly transferred the money, humming a song, happily wearing his tattered suit as he left.
Almost at the same time, the man’s Snake Tail hidden under the long skirt suddenly extended out,
dragging on the ground, the long tail was at least over ten meters, growing longer and larger than when drunk before.
This was a manifestation of his weakening power, unable to control the Snake Tail.
Like a swelling cotton, the tail had no support at all.
Seeing the man about to fall from the chair, I rushed over with a swift step to support him, "With your body so weak, why are you still exhausting your Essence Blood to make others taller?"
"Got to support the family, you took me to eat wontons which cost money, chartering a car costs money, buying fish costs money..." The man’s tail tip moved towards me, but ultimately lost its usual strength, unable to wrap around my waist.
Even if a person’s heart is made of stone, even if he is influenced by Yu Longting’s soul.
I couldn’t remain indifferent; my heart felt like it was being hammered fiercely.
Tears uncontrollably fell one by one from my eyes, "It’s nowhere near that much."
This was the first time I cried for this man, I actually shed tears for the enemy who killed my husband.
Either I’ve gone mad, or this man is poisonous.
Better wait until the night of the full moon, then I’ll end it with a stab, and the world will be at peace.
"It’s not just about taking care of you for a few days." The man weakly grabbed my hand, pulling me to sit on his Snake Tail, "Why are you crying now? Do you feel I asked for too little, hurting for the part I should’ve asked?"
"..." My tears fell even more, my knuckles nearly crushed under my own grip.
No matter what, I cannot easily waver from my resolve to kill him, if he doesn’t die, how can I face Yu Longting?
"So troublesome to appease a woman, it’s unreasonable for a king to appease a concubine, isn’t it?" The man grumbled in dissatisfaction, patting the back of my head to comfort me, "Whether reasonable or not, it’s already done, can’t you be more considerate and think about my dignity as the king?"
My mentality completely collapsed, uncontrollably sobbed for a long, long time, only stopping when I was exhausted.
"Oh, Yuanyuan, you better go down and check, Xiao Li’s family came to take her away, if you don’t handle it, no one will." Chen Decheng hurriedly arrived, witnessing me wiping tears from my face with my arm.
And still sitting on... the man’s long Snake Tail, as he patted my head like comforting a child.
Chen Decheng was stunned, "What’s going on here? You haven’t run into problems too, have you?"
"It’s fine, I’m okay, I’ll go check on Xiao Li." I pushed the man and stood up, only to realize I was weak from crying, seeing flashes of black and white.
The man got up and steadied me, "My bad, I made her cry, but now she’s comforted."
Then, without another word, he carried me horizontally.
The enlarged long tail retracted as he followed Chen Decheng downstairs.
"Go back and rest, Xiao Li’s issue doesn’t concern you much, put me down." I tried to break free but he held me tighter, my face turning red.
The man licked his lips, suddenly meeting my eyes, and sighed softly, "I just realized, your eyes...look like Snake Eye?"
