My Demon Husband Is a Snake

Chapter 1107: He Is Not Yu Longting

It was only then that I realized I had forgotten to help Yu Longting explain, "You really misunderstood him. My Three Corpse God injury wasn’t caused by him. Wuyue, thank you for giving me your precious blood. My body has recovered now. I’m truly thankful."

"Not caused by him? That’s not acceptable!" Wuyue said with disdain.

I asked softly, "Why not acceptable?"

"You were hurt so badly, yet he didn’t treat you. He doesn’t truly care about you," Wuyue replied with contempt, his long fingers curling around a lock of my hair, smiling with confidence and charm, "My princess consort, unless you are foolish, ultimately you will choose me. I have a noble status and I’m passionately devoted to you. That lowly Snake Servant isn’t even worthy to carry my shoes."

So this is what they call a rivalry?

He doesn’t yet know my sinister intentions, otherwise, he would surely kick me as far away as possible~

I felt a small pang of conscience in my heart~

Should I reveal my true self to him?

I should prevent any mistakes from being associated with me, the villain~

For a moment, I almost crushed the mug in my hand.

Internally torn about whether to tell him I’ve had murderous intentions towards him, I stammered in a probing manner, "Do... do you really know... do you know he... he is living inside your body??"

In the end, I held back from telling Wuyue about my desire to kill him.

Better to wait for an appropriate opportunity to tell him later. If I recklessly say it now, I’m afraid he might slap me to death.

"By coincidence, I just found out." Wuyue raised his eyebrows, cool to the point of being frightening.

I exclaimed in shock, "You know?"

He knows the truth and still remains so calm?

And how exactly does he know??

Was it from the beginning in Moonless City, or through some other chance?

"While I slumbered beneath the night sky, the snake shared with me his entrance to Moonless City, awakening my memories of rebirth."

Wuyue touched the area over his heart, seeming to understand that Yu Longting’s Primordial Spirit resides there, "So my understanding of this world has all been shared by him."

Upon hearing this, I realized that Wuyue was not so averse to Yu Longting. To be precise, Yu Longting had favored him, so I seized the chance to say, "Since you already know, there’s no need for further explanation. Yu Longting is temporarily residing in your body now, and there’s no way he can heal my Three Corpse God’s injury. We can’t expect him to cut open your blood vessels to offer up your blood, right."

"Wrong, when you truly love someone, you should go to any lengths. Without even the courage to bleed himself for your healing, how can he be worthy of you?" Wuyue yawned lazily and rested his head lightly on my shoulder, "Su Wan, I’m sleepy."

Is he... planning to sleep leaning on me...

So willful, isn’t he?

"You’ve lost so much blood, of course, you’re tired," I didn’t have the courage to push him away and stood silently, "I have a Cultivation Spiritual Garment; you can wear it to sleep. This way your body will recover faster..."

Wuyue did not respond to me; he actually fell asleep leaning on me.

His breathing was long and cold, quietly like a baby curled up in its mother’s arms.

Although I don’t understand Wuyue’s past, nor do I know his true nature.

Yet, I felt guilty towards him due to previously misunderstanding him as the one who killed Yu Longting.

Even though he was weakened to the extreme, I had never considered lending him the Cultivation Spiritual Garment, just hoping he would become weaker, giving me a chance to strike...

But he seemed to never realize the malicious intent I harbored within.

I was in a daze for a moment, reaching out to unzip his back.

I took off his gown and carefully dressed him in the Cultivation Spiritual Garment.

Downstairs, it was the busiest time at noon, and when I put on my apron, I realized I was somewhat clumsy.

I used to wear an apron quickly, but now it took ages, tying the belt around my neck and waist.

Helping with serving dishes and tidying tables didn’t feel as nimble as before either.

Looks like I’ll need more practice to get back to my old form.

The regulars at the diner were very happy to see me again, chatting away with laughter.

I busily talked with them, feeling like I was back in the old days.

Xiao Li was bustling between the kitchen and the hall, so busy she seemed dizzy, only realizing I was there to help much later, "Why are you alone? Haven’t seen your man come down to help?"
