Chapter 143: What do you want to do?
Companionship is the most affectionate confession……
This sentence is surprisingly easy for dragons to understand.
However, hearing it in her ears, it was inexplicably a little sad.
No wonder it is said that dragons are lonely.
Because dragons are long-lived species.
The Dragon Race is the longest-lived race in Azure Continent, and also the least promiscuous race.
Without human intervention, dragons will only choose dragons as companions. This is the best choice under natural conditions, and it is also the only choice to continue the dragon bloodline.
But……
Lucia didn’t want to choose her own kind. She looked up at the Brave Hero who was still making breakfast for her.
Her heart felt a little sour.
“Xia Li, what if you die?”
“Tsk. ”
Xia Li had just taken out the sweet potatoes when he heard the Evil Dragon talking about what to do if he died.
“What are you talking about so early in the morning, tsk tsk twice. ”
“Tsk…tsk?”
Lucia imitated Xia Li’s tone and stuck out her little tongue, making two tsk tsk sounds.
“I’m the Brave Hero, how could I die. ”
As he spoke, Xia Li picked up the sweet potatoes one by one and put them into the bowl.
He didn’t want to avoid this question……
Perhaps this kind of love was a bit selfish, but he would still resolutely choose to move forward.
Seize the day, live up to the time.
Just like raising a pet.
It is said that raising a pet is like planting a seed of sadness with your own hands.
This seed will take root and sprout in your heart, and after more than ten years, when the pet dies, it will bloom a flower of sorrow.
But even so, there are still many people who choose to raise pets to accompany them.
Even if this ending is doomed from the beginning.
So what.
What matters is the process, not the result.
Just like people.
When everyone is born, they are actually planting a seed of sadness.
You can’t just cut off the process because the ending will make you cry.
Moreover, this Xia Li is someone who has come into contact with magic, he has his own way of thinking.
What if……
There is a way to solve it in the future.
“Xia Li, when you’re gone, I can only inherit your human nest and sleep in your bed……”
“Tsk tsk tsk!”
The Evil Dragon was honest and straightforward, her way of speaking was still so innocent.
However, Xia Li saw a trace of sadness on her face.
Lucia lowered her head, her brows furrowed as she thought seriously.
Xia Li stretched out his finger and hooked her pretty chin.
Lucia slowly raised her head, her sorrowful light brown eyes flickering slightly in the sun.
“So, you know, every person, every dragon, from the moment they are born, their life is on a countdown. We have to do more things in this limited time.
Money can’t be earned endlessly, food can’t be eaten endlessly, but feelings are different……
We have to give more love to the people we love in the limited time we have, that’s the meaning of being human. ”
“Love……”
Lucia didn’t even understand what to do with liking, and Xia Li told her a more profound word.
However, the moment she looked up and met Xia Li’s serious eyes, Lucia seemed to understand something.
She stared at Xia Li foolishly, and Xia Li also cooperated by bending down and even closing his eyes.
The Brave Hero, the Brave Hero is asking for a kiss again……
After saying so much, he just wants to trick her into kissing him!
“……”
Lucia bit her cherry pink lips and hesitated for half a second.
This time, this time.
This time, I’ll be fooled……
The warm winter sun slowly climbed up the roof, illuminating Lucia’s face.
She stood on tiptoe and touched the lips that had been waiting for an opportunity.
Thump thump……
The dragon’s heart started to race again!
Is this the feeling of heart pounding that Zhou Anqi talked about?
◈◈◈
Today’s breakfast was sweet potatoes and eggs, and yogurt.
Xia Li knew that the Evil Dragon would definitely not be full, so he took the leftover braised duck from yesterday and heated it up in the microwave.
The two of them gnawed on duck feet and huddled on the sofa watching TV.
The TV was playing a popular American drama with a Western fantasy theme.
Lucia liked to watch this kind of live-action stuff, but she couldn’t quite understand the two-dimensional paper people that Xia Li liked.
“Standing before you is:
Daenerys Stormborn of the House Targaryen, the First of Her Name, Queen of the Andals and the First Men, Protector of the Seven Kingdoms, the Mother of Dragons……”
Lucia, with a duck foot in her mouth, was stunned by this long list of subtitles.
The background voiceover was in English, which she didn’t understand at all, so she could only rely on her limited vocabulary to read the text above.
Xia Li said this could improve her literacy level.
But in return, many foreign movies were difficult to understand.
◈◈◈
“She has a long name. ” Lucia complained.
“Well, she’s the Mother of Dragons. ”
Xia Li chewed on a duck foot, stretched out a hand, and opened his palm in front of Lucia.
Lucia hesitated for a moment.
Between ‘putting her hand on it’ and ‘putting her chin on it’, she chose the former.
She put her paw on it and shook hands with Xia Li.
Xia Li: “…”
“No, I was asking you to spit out the bones, you can’t eat the duck bones. ”
“Oh……”
Lucia chewed on the duck bone in her mouth. A bone of this hardness was as crispy as potato chips to her.
She chewed the bone fragments in her mouth into crumbs, then slurped all the bone marrow flavor out of the crumbs.
Finally, she spat out a ball of crushed bone crumbs into Xia Li’s palm.
“…Why be so thrifty, it’s not like we’re short of this. ”
Xia Li found it funny and threw the bone crumbs into the trash can.
The Evil Dragon was too thrifty in some areas.
“It’s delicious to chew on. ” Lucia said.
Turning her head, the TV was showing the Mother of Dragons’ half-minute-long title again.
“They’re long-winded. ” Lucia took a bite of the duck bone and concluded.
Xia Li chuckled, “You even understand this kind of word?”
“I’ve seen it a lot, so I know some. ”
Lucia nodded and said, “My title is only four words…”
The Mother of Dragons’ title could fill up an entire TV screen with letters, while she, as a pure-blooded giant dragon, only had four words, ‘Silver Dragon Queen’. It was a bit too shabby.
“Lucia Sivana, the pure-blooded Silver Dragon born in the Great Dragon’s Nest, the Destroyer of Human Civilization in Azure Continent, the Savior of the Forest, the Girlfriend of the Brave Hero Xia Li, the Future Wife and Spouse of the Brave Hero, the Shovel Officer of Mianhua, the Mistress of Apartment 301, Unit 2, Building Number Three, Shangdong Chaoyang Residential Complex!”
Xia Li’s words stunned the dragon.
For a moment, she didn’t know where to start.
But it seemed quite long.
And quite impressive too.
“Meow~”
Hearing someone call its name, Mianhua meowed and jumped onto the sofa.
It went around in a circle, but both the human and the dragon’s hands were greasy, and no one touched it, so it sat down dejectedly with its tail curled up, on Xia Li’s lap.
Xia Li raised his hand and used his wrist to rub its head.
“Meow~~”
Mianhua narrowed its eyes and rubbed affectionately against Xia Li’s clothes.
This kind of stray cat that was picked up was especially attached to people. Because they knew the taste of being stray was not good, they were more clingy to humans than delicate breed cats.
“Meow~Meow~~”
“Are you hungry? Little guy. ”
Xia Li smiled and touched the cat’s head. Mianhua purred happily and lay down on Xia Li’s thick pajamas.
“I’ll go wash the dishes. ”
Lucia left the sofa.
She went to the dining table to clean up the leftover sweet potato and egg shells, then carried the two small plates back to the kitchen to wash them.
Xia Li secretly observed her expression and found that the dragon’s mouth was almost flattened into lentils.
“Your mom is jealous. ”
Xia Li whispered to Mianhua.
Mianhua tilted its head: “Meow wow~?”
Coming to the kitchen, Xia Li and Lucia squeezed into the same sink. Lucia washed the dishes, and Xia Li put his hands under the faucet to wash.
After washing, Lucia thought Xia Li was going back to the living room. She turned her head and glanced over, only to find Xia Li turning his head again and going behind her.
Xia Li hugged Lucia from behind and rubbed his face against the Evil Dragon’s face like Mianhua had rubbed against him just now.
The Evil Dragon’s deflated lips returned to their fullness and pouted slightly.
She was a little happy.
Xia Li was like Little Cotton, rubbing her cheeks until they were tingling. It was so distracting that she couldn’t wash the dishes. Lucia disliked him.
“What do you want to do?”
“Want to. ”
“Huh?”
“Let me wash it for you. ”
Xia Li took the plate from the Evil Dragon’s hand and rinsed it clean in two strokes.
“Meow~”
At their feet, the slender calico cat with a sweet appearance came over again, clingy as ever.
This time it circled around Xia Li’s legs and finally came to Lucia’s ankle, rubbing against her with its raised tail.
No small animal had ever been so close to her, so every time Mianhua showed her kindness, Lucia had absolutely no resistance.
“Humph~”
With a light hum, the Evil Dragon picked up the kitten and gave it a big kiss.
“Don’t let him hold you anymore, he’s a bad guy!”
“Tsk, I’m the Brave Hero, the light of justice, as good as can be. ”
“Meow wow~?”
Mianhua looked at the two of them, then tilted its head in confusion.
The rising sun draped a golden robe over the two of them. Water splashed around the sink, and the lifted lid on the stove was still steaming.
Xia Li was busy washing the pot, and Lucia brought a dishcloth to wipe the water droplets off the bowls one by one.
Time was good.
