Chapter 294
Chapter 294: Legal Citizen
Days returned to tranquility for a while.
After the hustle and bustle of social formalities, it was time to return to daily life.
‘Marriage is the tomb of love’.
This saying is indeed familiar, but it actually has a second half.
‘Marriage is the tomb of love, but without marriage, love has nowhere to be buried.’
Therefore, marriage is the highest form of love.
For a complete love, completing the ceremony does not mean the end.
It means a new beginning.
Actually, Xia Li and Lucia’s original plan was like this: First, realize their social value, run a pet hospital, get their ID cards in January next year, and then apply for a marriage certificate.
As for the wedding, it should be the last step.
Xia Li had methodically sorted out these steps at the time, and the two even registered a small notebook for this purpose.
However, when Xia Li learned that Lucia was pregnant, the plan went haywire.
The step that should have been completed last was directly put on the agenda.
Forget about starting a business and getting an ID card to get married, all these procedures were put aside. They directly held a wedding on the spot, formally introducing Lucia to Xia Li’s relatives and friends.
Lucia knew why Xia Li was in such a hurry.
He really wanted to be a good father.
For the sake of Lucia and the social relationships of the baby in her belly in the future, Xia Li hastily reversed the plan.
Autumn passed and winter came again.
The cool floral dress was pressed back to the bottom of the box.
Lucia changed into a fleece hooded sweater, which wasn’t warm enough, so she gradually changed into a pink hollowed-out sweater.
Until the thickest down jacket in the southerner’s wardrobe was turned out, the coldest time of the year came along with it.
The fluffy down jacket wrapped Lucia’s bulging belly. The whole dragon looked a lot fatter due to the pregnancy. Even Fang Xia couldn’t help but praise Lucia for gaining weight.
But only Xia Li knew that the weight wasn’t on Lucia’s body.
It was on the little dragon in her belly.
Lucia’s figure was still slender, as if no matter how much she ate, she couldn’t really gain weight.
As the pregnancy progressed, Lucia’s appetite also gradually increased.
Every day, stewed pigeons, stewed chicken, stewed ribs were arranged by Xia Li.
Xia Li was not good at cooking heavy oil and spicy dishes, and this slow stewing method was just right for his clumsy cooking skills.
This time, Xia Li had a great time being a little cook.
Leaving aside his cooking skills for now.
After knowing that Xia Li didn’t dare touch her, she became bold and kept pushing the boundaries, making Xia Li burn with desire every day.
Xia Li was looking forward to the dragon unloading her cargo.
And then punish her severely.
This dragon knight, who had been holding back for half a year, wouldn’t he subdue the evil dragon in one go after he was released?
Xia Li counted the days.
In China, there is a common saying, ‘Ten months of pregnancy’.
But in fact, the actual pregnancy cycle is only nine months.
This number even includes the month when the egg develops in the belly, that is, it is calculated from the end of the last menstrual period.
Xia Li calculated and found that Lucia’s due date was only four months away.
The more time dragged on, the more anxious Xia Li became.
If Lucia couldn’t obtain legal status in China during this period, it would be difficult for the child to register their household.
Therefore, this final four-month countdown was like the final round for Xia Li.
New Year’s Day passed in a flash.
Time came to late January.
The receipt they had brought back from Dominica showed that the date to collect the citizen ID card was January 23rd.
Let alone Xia Li counting the days, even Lucia, who usually lay down waiting to lay eggs and was oblivious to the outside world, had been thinking about it.
Her biggest expectation every day was to take out the receipt, look at the date on it, and then look at the date on her phone.
Half a year had passed since they left the island.
Lucia had been thinking about it for half a year.
As the date approached, she became more and more excited.
She was either pacing on the balcony with her belly out in the sun or lying on the bed like a salted fish, curled up in the covers and reading all kinds of identity guides.
Dragons are generally homebodies.
Not to mention a pregnant dragon, a mother dragon in this period never leaves her lair.
Therefore, Lucia rarely went out, and her only entertainment every day was her phone and TV.
Fortunately, there was the almighty internet in this world for her to pass the time.
Fortunately, the male dragon Xia Li did not impose any restrictions on her preferences.
Lucia had enough freedom.
If she wanted to surf the internet, Xia Li let her surf the internet.
If she wanted to eat fried chicken, Xia Li bought her fried chicken.
Taboos like ‘eating cold drinks is not good for the baby’, ‘playing with mobile phones will have radiation’… did not exist for Xia Li.
Xia Li said that the mother’s mood was the most important thing to take care of, and everything else was nonsense.
I’m a pure-blood dragon, and you’re talking to me about radiation?
Therefore, Lucia spent her entire pregnancy in happiness.
January 22nd
The day to collect the certificate was imminent.
Early in the morning.
Lucia couldn’t hold back her excitement and woke up Xia Li, who was in a sweet dream, with a “dragon collision.”
Xia Li woke up from a feeling of suffocation.
He looked up and saw the big-tailed dragon sitting on his chest.
When the big-tailed dragon leaned over, that scenery would press on Xia Li’s eyes with a full visual impact.
Xia Li pushed the dragon away and sat up to breathe.
“I boiled eggs!”
Lucia rolled out of bed when she saw him awake.
This green dinosaur onesie pajamas, which were still loose last winter, were now a bit small on Lucia.
Especially the contours of her secondary development, the onesie pajamas were faintly unable to hold them in.
Xia Li could see the surging waves dangling in front of him every day.
At first, he couldn’t take his eyes off it.
But after too many times of “looking at plums to quench thirst,” it hurt his body.
He couldn’t take it.
He couldn’t take it at all.
He had never heard that the human form of a giant dragon could be so plump…
But it made sense when he thought about it.
Judging from the dragon’s own appetite, the young dragon’s appetite was probably not low either. If it didn’t reach a sufficient amount, the little dragon would be hungry.
“Why are you boiling eggs? Didn’t we say I would do it?”
Xia Li put on his coat and got out of bed, glancing at his wife’s gentle smile.
He pulled up his pants.
It was a pity that the matter of slaying the dragon had to be put on hold for the time being.
Going to the kitchen, Xia Li quickly dealt with the crucian carp that had been raised overnight.
He threw the fish meat, with the head and internal organs removed, into the frying pan and fried it until golden brown on both sides, and then skillfully threw the fish steak and seasonings into the wall breaker.
The thick soup made by the wall breaker was not only simple and convenient, but it could also maximize the nutritional value of the fish itself.
The key was that there were no fish bones, so it was safe to eat, just right for the pregnant dragon mother.
Lucia’s breakfast was a big pot of fish soup, two eggs, two steamed buns, and a big chicken leg specially left over from last night’s stewed chicken.
Xia Li was not interested in this kind of food for big-bellied dragons.
He preferred to soak a bucket of instant noodles in the morning. People in Sichuan loved to have a bowl of noodles for breakfast.
“Try yours.”
Lucia held the spoon for drinking soup in her mouth and looked at Xia Li expectantly.
Although the pregnant dragon’s food was plentiful, it always lacked flavor. After eating it for a long time, Lucia always wanted to eat Xia Li’s portion.
“This is junk food.”
Xia Li shook the plastic fork and said.
Suddenly he realized how familiar this sentence sounded.
Fang Xia often said that too.
“Just one bite!”
Lucia held up a finger and said.
Xia Li knew there must be a trick, but in order to satisfy the pregnant dragon’s mood, he still pushed the instant noodle bucket out.
As he expected.
Dragon water absorption!
After a storm of inhalation, the noodle bucket was empty.
Even the soup was gone.
As long as I don’t open my mouth, then I only ate one bite!
“You’re going to be a mother…”
Xia Li looked at her helplessly.
Lucia stuck out her pink tongue and licked her lips.
It seemed that even she felt a little embarrassed. Although she always ate Xia Li’s breakfast in one bite, in order not to let Xia Li go hungry, Lucia would voluntarily contribute a little from her own portion.
“…Here’s a chicken leg for you.”
“I don’t eat chicken legs.”
Xia Li waved his hand and took a sip of the fish soup.
For him, breakfast was just something to fill his stomach.
However, this mouthful of fish soup really made Xia Li speechless.
It was so fishy…
He really needed to improve his cooking skills.
He didn’t know how the dragon could drink such a big bowl with satisfaction.
Lucia was really not picky at all, she was so easy to feed…
“Tomorrow is January 23rd.”
Lucia finished the rest of her breakfast, glanced at the date on her phone, and pretended to just realize it, reminding Xia Li in a surprised tone.
In fact, she had been staring at the date for a long time.
Xia Li nodded: “Yes, we’ll go get the certificate tomorrow… but, considering the time difference, the actual time to get the certificate is the 24th in China.”
“Have you booked your flight?” Lucia looked up and asked.
“No.” Xia Li replied.
“…”
Lucia’s eyes dimmed a little, and she casually tore open the small biscuits on the table and stuffed them into her mouth.
“I’m not going to fly there.” Xia Li added.
Suddenly, Lucia’s eyes were filled with hope again.
“It will take two days and one night to get there by traditional means of transportation. I’m not comfortable leaving you alone at home.” Xia Li said again.
Perhaps it was the activation of some kind of instinct, especially during Lucia’s pregnancy, Xia Li’s protectiveness towards her was increasing day by day.
Let alone leaving Lucia alone at home, even if she stayed in the bathroom for a while longer, Xia Li would start to worry if something had happened.
“We haven’t tried teleporting ourselves directly there using summoning magic on Earth. I’m going to try it.”
Xia Li took out the soft dragon scale hanging on his chest.
Last time he went to Dominica, he didn’t have enough magic stones to make these attempts.
This time, he had made preparations.
“That means…”
Lucia said excitedly, holding the biscuit in her mouth.
“We can fly there directly with magic!”
◈◈◈
On January 23rd.
Lucia packed her luggage as usual.
From pillows to clean, beautiful dresses.
This time, she even prepared to bring her own bed sheets.
When she was a dragon before, she didn’t care about the hygiene of the outside environment at all, but now, after carrying a dragon egg in her belly, Lucia began to care about these details.
Both she and Xia Li were subconsciously protecting their unborn cub.
This was from instinct, and also from the power of love.
“Huh?”
More people needed to be teleported than Lucia expected.
In addition to Lucia and Xia Li, early in the morning, a guest came to Lucia’s house.
It was Saint Yivni.
“Will it bother you…”
Yivni was wearing a light down jacket. Like Lucia’s love for white, Yivni also liked white.
Coupled with her love for cleanliness, Yivni’s elegant attire gave people a fresh and refined sense of purity.
“It’s okay, it’s okay, no bother!” Lucia smiled kindly.
Lucia couldn’t be happier to have another companion on the trip.
Moreover, there was a reason why Yivni went out with them.
She wanted to understand the situation of immigration and ID card application.
After all, Yivni’s situation was the same as Lucia’s. She also needed a legal identity to live in this world.
Yivni could not buy plane tickets or high-speed rail tickets for long-distance travel.
She could only travel between the two places through Xia Li’s summoning magic.
Qin Chuan originally wanted to go with her too.
But Qin Chuan and Xia Li didn’t have a contract magic, and it was unnecessary to summon them again.
Moreover, the pet hospital was about to open after the New Year, and it was the busiest time for Qin Chuan. The decoration of the shop was completed, and the equipment was being delivered one after another. He couldn’t leave there, so Qin Chuan finally chose not to go.
Before leaving, Qin Chuan specially sent a message asking Lucia to help take care of Yivni.
This came to the big-bellied dragon’s favorite part.
Being a ‘senior’ was what Lucia was best at.
In the living room, flashes of white light appeared.
All three of them were momentarily blinded by the strong light.
After a moment of buzzing, the surrounding environment had completely changed.
This was the first time Xia Li used the power of the artifact to teleport on Earth.
Although he had used the conch shell brought back from Dominica as a beacon to guide the way in advance, it was still difficult to accurately locate the landing point.
Looking at the suddenly darkened vision and the whistling wind in their ears, the three of them were lost in different degrees.
Xia Li and Lucia both overlooked one thing.
The time difference.
If it was morning in China… then it was night on the island!
The whistling wind in their ears was the wind of falling rapidly from high altitude.
And the darkness in front of their eyes was not the darkness brought by the night ━ they were above the endless sea!
Seeing that they were about to fall into the water, Yivni quickly took out the scepter she was carrying.
Although there was no magic power in the surrounding air, Yivni’s scepter still stored Qin Chuan’s magic power.
This magic power was of the same frequency as hers, and it was the power that Yivni could control.
She had worked hard for several nights to extract… absorb it from Qin Chuan’s Heart of Stone.
“Light!”
For a saint of Yivni’s level, just one word was enough to cast a spell instantly.
The golden light did not pierce the darkness. Considering concealment, Yivni suppressed the brightness of the light to the lowest level.
The three fell into the sea, and an invisible force enveloped them. The barrier of light formed a huge circular bubble in the sea.
The bubble enveloped both Xia Li and Lucia.
The endless sea water was isolated outside the bubble. There was no feeling of coldness, no feeling of suffocation, and the three of them didn’t even get a drop of water on them.
Xia Li was fascinated by this peculiar magic and looked around from time to time, but unfortunately, it was pitch black all around, and he couldn’t see anything.
On the contrary, Lucia was very calm. Her calm eyes, which had seen it all, carried the inherent pride of the dragon race, as if she was conveying to Xia Li, ‘Husband, I can do it too, I can do it too, praise me too!’
“Just go straight ahead, right?”
Yivni waved her golden scepter and said.
Xia Li had already inserted the local SIM card in advance, but there was no network signal in the sea.
He could only identify the direction by the light of the lighthouse in the distance.
◈◈◈
“Go straight, then turn right.”
Under Xia Li’s guidance, the three of them landed safely.
It was fortunate that they arrived on the island at night, as the coastal surveillance wasn’t strict.
Otherwise, if they had waited until daybreak, they would have been apprehended and questioned.
Patting his dry clothes, Xia Li took off his cotton jacket, revealing the short-sleeved T-shirt he had worn underneath. His body quickly adapted from winter to summer.
“Hehe~”
Lucia had also prepared her floral dress in advance.
The dark blue dress, printed with palm-sized, cute seashell patterns, made her slightly mature figure appear a bit more lively.
“As expected, wearing a dress is perfect when you’re pregnant!!”
Since the beginning of autumn, she hadn’t worn a dress after changing out of them. Lucia had tried various clothing styles on Earth, but after trying them all, she still preferred this kind of dress.
Convenient!
“Put on a jacket, don’t catch a cold.”
“Hehe~”
Xia Li brought a wide scarf and wrapped it around Lucia’s shoulders. Lucia chuckled; every time Xia Li showed concern for her, she couldn’t help but kiss his face.
After the kiss, she was afraid that Yivni, who was standing beside them, might feel awkward, so she took Yivni’s hand.
“It’s alright, these interactions are also something I need to learn,” Yivni said seriously.
Qin Chuan was a block of wood; usually, when she was with him, she was the one initiating interactions.
But as a saint, how could she be skilled in the ways of men and women? All her actions were merely imitations.
This was a good opportunity to learn something from Lucia.
Lucia’s face flushed slightly, feeling a bit embarrassed.
“When you’re not outside… you can be bolder at home, like sticking out your little tongue…”
Lucia shared her experience with a blushing face, and Yivni listened intently.
The two girls stood under the streetlights by the beach, chatting, while Xia Li took out his phone and successfully connected to the local network.
Although the landing location was a bit unexpected, fortunately, it wasn’t far from the city center.
Using the artifact’s power to teleport by exploiting bugs is risky…
Xia Li silently added this to his blacklist.
It’s better to use two-way teleportation scrolls for long-distance travel in the future.
This time, they had Yivni’s magic to cheat, but they might not be so lucky next time.
“Do you need to find a place to rest?”
After checking the route, Xia Li decided to set off after daybreak.
It was twenty kilometers from here to the city center; calling an Uber would take about half an hour, which was more than enough time.
“We don’t need to rest, it seems quite troublesome to book a room,” Lucia said.
Xia Li thought about it and agreed.
He didn’t have a passport this time, and Lucia and Yivni were unregistered residents without identification. Three “stowaways” who didn’t speak the language in a foreign land would likely face more danger than good fortune.
“Alright, then let’s find a place to sit for a while, and we’ll leave after getting our IDs tomorrow.”
After careful consideration, Xia Li decided it was best not to stay in this place for too long.
The three walked along the dim streetlights towards the bustling area.
The island’s nightlife was much less lively compared to their home country.
The entire street was dark, with no shops open.
Along the way, Yivni looked around curiously; she hadn’t seen much of the world. Lucia acted like a patient older sister, introducing the local customs as they walked. Sometimes, when she encountered questions she didn’t understand, she would turn to Xia Li for help.
However, Xia Li couldn’t keep up with the girls’ jumping thoughts during their conversation, and he chose to search for answers on Baidu for every question Lucia asked.
It was already two o’clock in the morning, which was two o’clock in the afternoon back home.
All three of them were full of energy.
In the end, unable to find any open shops, Xia Li took the two girls to sit in a bar.
The bar had a distinctive island vibe, brightly lit, with guests under the eaves singing and dancing to the music.
The three of them, completely lacking any dancing genes, ordered some juice and sat in a corner, chatting quietly.
Occasionally, when enthusiastic passersby invited them to dance, Xia Li would step forward and decline their kind offer.
“I’ll take some pictures for Ah Chuan.”
After connecting her phone to the bar’s WiFi, Yivni’s first priority was to contact her Brave Hero.
Qin Chuan was still helping to move things at the shop, covered in dust. When he received Yivni’s video call, the fatigue on his face vanished.
“Yivni…”
The two couples chatted while holding their phones.
Xia Li’s couple wasn’t idle either; he pulled Lucia over and massaged the Evil Dragon’s calves.
“Are you tired from walking today?”
“Not really.”
“Your waist must be uncomfortable, let me rub it for you.”
Xia Li had done his homework during this period. As the little dragon in the Evil Dragon’s belly grew bigger, the amniotic sac would compress her spine, causing frequent back pain for the mother.
Lucia usually had a high pain tolerance and never told Xia Li about her aches and pains, but that didn’t mean Xia Li didn’t care.
He placed Lucia on his lap and then gently massaged her soft waist on both sides.
Lucia felt like Xia Li was tickling her, struggling and giggling.
“Don’t move.”
“Hee hee hee hee hee… Baby, Daddy is bullying me, wuuwuu.”
“I’m giving you a massage!”
“You said the same thing last night when you were massaging my chest! You were clearly taking advantage of me!” the Evil Dragon said, twisting her waist.
Xia Li: “…”
Like biting the hand that feeds you.
Can touching your own wife be considered taking advantage?
Even if it is, it’s openly taking advantage!
Afraid of hurting the mother, Xia Li stopped teasing the dragon and pulled a chair over for Lucia to sit on by herself.
As soon as Lucia sat down, she touched her protruding belly and let out an “Ow!”
“What’s wrong?”
“The baby kicked me!” Lucia said with a whimper.
“Let me feel.” Xia Li quickly reached out.
Lucia slapped his salty pig trotter away, not letting him touch.
It wouldn’t be polite to continue teasing her like this, with so many people watching, and she was pregnant.
“The baby says she’s hungry,” Lucia said seriously.
Xia Li withdrew his hand dejectedly, matching the Evil Dragon’s tone.
“What does the baby want to eat?”
“Seafood fried rice, iced coconut juice… and buy a pearl necklace to take home and play with. Last time we traveled, I didn’t have any money, and the baby said she didn’t bring a gift back for Mommy, so we need to make up for it this time,” Lucia whispered the menu.
Xia Li noted everything down.
“We’ll go when it’s daylight.”
Later that night.
Yivni and Qin Chuan had been on the phone for an hour. After hanging up, she continued chatting with Lucia.
Seeing that Lucia was still full of energy, Xia Li didn’t say much and rested his head on the table for a while.
They needed to be fully alert during the day, and as the main force, Xia Li couldn’t afford to slack off.
Half asleep, Xia Li heard Yivni and Lucia talking about confessions and proposals.
Toilet confession. Xia Li stood in front of Lucia, who was peeing, and delivered a heartfelt and touching speech.
Pork filling proposal. The wedding ring was stuffed into fragrant pork filling and cooked together. The diamond ring on Lucia’s finger still had a slight scent.
Yivni laughed until tears streamed down her face.
Although Lucia and Xia Li’s love story was full of humor, in her eyes, it was undoubtedly another form of happiness.
Lucia also talked about her family and friends. Yivni listened attentively, and when she heard that Xia Li’s parents were so supportive of them, she sincerely wished them well.
However, when Yivni asked Lucia about Qin Chuan’s parents…
Lucia fell silent.
The conversation came to an abrupt halt, like falling off a cliff.
The ice cubes in the juice glasses gradually melted into water, misting up the glass and forming a thin layer of condensation on the surface.
Six o’clock in the morning.
The bar, which had been open all night, began to close one after another.
Xia Li was woken up by the waiter and went to the counter to pay with his Visa card.
Coming out of the bar, Xia Li hailed a taxi and asked the driver to take them to the city center.
Along the way, neither Lucia nor Yivni spoke.
Xia Li thought the two sisters had talked all night and were tired.
As promised, Xia Li took Lucia to the city center to eat seafood fried rice, drink iced coconut juice, and bought her a huge pearl necklace.
Yivni wasn’t interested in pearl necklaces; she took a liking to a glowing crystal ball.
This kind of crystal ball would be considered bottom-of-the-barrel merchandise even in Yiwu, but since Yivni liked it, Xia Li bought it for her.
As soon as he bought it, Qin Chuan sent a red envelope using the real-time exchange rate to settle the bill.
He said that this way, it was technically him who bought it for Yivni. After all, this was Yivni’s first time traveling far, and it needed to be memorable. Xia Li accepted the red envelope.
After shopping until ten in the morning, the three finally arrived at their final destination.
Citizen IDs were collected at the government office.
All they needed was to provide the receipt and ensure that the photo on the ID matched the person collecting it.
They could take it and leave, very efficient.
Looking at the small plastic card with the embedded chip in her hand, Lucia was so happy she couldn’t close her mouth.
“I thought there would be several procedures, but I didn’t expect to just go and get it!”
This palm-sized plastic card carried so many of Lucia’s daydreams and longings. Although it only weighed about ten grams, it felt heavy in her hand.
From today onwards, she was a legal Earthling!
“Congratulations.”
Yivni, who was beside her, also offered her heartfelt congratulations.
“This way, you’re an Earth citizen now, Little Lu.”
“Mm!”
Lucia first turned and gave Xia Li a big hug, then turned back to Yivni and said,
“Yivni, you need to hurry up too!”
Yivni smiled and nodded.
In the afternoon, Xia Li hesitated for a moment, wondering whether to use teleportation magic to go back directly.
It was daytime on the island, which meant it was nighttime back home. This was the safest time to return.
But then he thought again.
Since Lucia had obtained her ID, for her to successfully settle down in their home country, she needed to enter the country through normal channels at least once.
Only by entering the country with a visa through customs was considered a “normal” route.
This method of entry would be recognized by their home country. If Xia Li wanted to apply for a marriage certificate in the future, this step was essential.
“Passport, visa application form, photos, itinerary, round-trip air tickets, hotel…”
Xia Li quickly looked up the necessary steps.
Listening to these procedures that sounded like spells, Lucia’s face showed a troubled expression.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be with you.”
Seeing the dragon’s anxious look, Xia Li took her soft hand.
Hearing this, Lucia looked up at him.
The breeze was gentle, the island’s sky was clear and blue, and the young man standing before her was still the same young man, the one who could always make her feel safe.
As long as they had each other, they truly had nothing to fear.
“Mm!” Lucia responded with a smile.
In Xia Li’s eyes, her smile was brighter than the sun today.
◈◈◈
Applying for the visa took a few more days.
Today, Lucia was the only one among the three with a legal identity.
She immediately took charge, waving her small hand and proudly using her brand new ID to book a hotel room.
Book it, book a big room!
Book a three-bedroom suite, one room for each of them!
The Big-Tailed Dragon was full of swagger, saying that’s what she would do. But when night fell, she still wrapped herself in her little blanket and went to sleep with Xia Li.
With Xia Li’s financial power pushing things along, the visa was quickly processed.
The flight was scheduled for tomorrow, and Xia Li had specifically bought expensive direct flights.
The three of them arrived at the airport and collected their boarding passes.
The flight time on the ticket was twenty hours, not including waiting time and customs clearance.
Holding this ticket, Xia Li felt a bit troubled.
If he could, he really wanted to take this flight for Lucia.
A twenty-hour flight was torture even for ordinary people, let alone a pregnant woman.
Let alone a pregnant woman who was flying for the first time and alone.
Xia Li was very worried about whether she would feel uncomfortable on the plane.
“I’ll be fine!”
Seeing how worried he seemed, Lucia patted her chest and assured him.
“I’ll get on the plane and eat snacks, sleep when I’m tired… I won’t talk to strangers, and I won’t walk around on the plane.”
“And, you bought first class, first class is so spacious, it must be very comfortable to lie down!”
To reassure Xia Li, Lucia kept making promises.
But Xia Li was still hesitant.
He kind of regretted why he didn’t come to the island on a tourist visa, so he could be on the same flight back with Lucia.
“How about, I do it?”
Just as the couple was going back and forth, Yivni spoke up.
She looked around and saw no one nearby, then added in a low voice,
“I know disguise magic, the kind that can even change bone structure… It can last for two days without any problem.”
Lucia’s eyes lit up when she heard this.
However, her first reaction wasn’t to have Yivni go through customs in her place, but she thought of something else interesting.
“Such amazing long-lasting magic…”
Lucia leaned close to Xia Li’s ear and said, “That way, you’ll have two wives.”
Xia Li was amused by the dragon.
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
He tapped Lucia’s forehead and said as if making a vow,
“I will only ever have one wife.”
After saying that, Xia Li turned to face Yivni.
“Then I’ll have to trouble you this time.”
If Lucia wasn’t in a special period, Xia Li would actually be happy to let her take this opportunity to practice her social skills.
But Lucia was in her second trimester.
Xia Li didn’t dare to take any risks with her.
“It’s alright, we’re all friends, we should look after each other.”
Yivni smiled gently and took the boarding pass from Xia Li’s hand.
She had learned about the security procedures of this world from the internet.
There wouldn’t be any problem using her magic for disguise.
“Right,” Yivni was about to go to the airport restroom when she suddenly remembered something and said,
“You can give me a two-way teleportation scroll. After I get there, I’ll be responsible for teleporting you over. That way, you won’t have to use the artifact’s power to teleport… Your magic is not good for precise location, I’m afraid the landing spot might not be ideal.” Yivni said with lingering fear.
A few days ago, if she hadn’t reacted quickly, their first experience upon arriving on the island might have been falling into the sea and becoming shark food.
Hearing her say this, Xia Li also realized that it was indeed the case.
He hurriedly took out two teleportation scrolls and two small bags of crystals from his bag and handed them all to Yivni.
Yivni took them, waved goodbye to the two, and said,
“Then I’ll go first. Little Lu, you two can have fun here for another day. Once I arrive back home, I’ll bring you over.”
“Okay! Thank you, Yivni!” Lucia said gratefully.
“You’re welcome. In the future, I’ll need your help with my identity issues many more times.”
Yivni smiled gently.
As she left, she took a strand of Lucia’s hair, which would be used as a medium for her disguise magic.
Xia Li and Lucia stood outside the airport, watching Yivni leave.
Looking at the figure disappearing into the crowd, Xia Li couldn’t help but tighten his grip on Lucia’s hand.
This would be the first time “Lucia” would enter the country through official channels.
From now on, she would be a citizen with legal status.
