Volume 2, Chapter 138 – Give Myself to Her

“Hah…”

Lu Zhuxin sat on the edge of a flower bed, swinging her little feet.

Her fluffy fox tail behind her swayed left and right happily.

Lu Zhuxin crossed her arms over her chest, her delicate body trembling lightly.

She seemed to be suppressing something.

But soon, she could no longer suppress her emotions. The corners of her mouth, curved upward, couldn’t be pushed down anymore.

“Hehe~~!”

“Hehe~~!”

She laughed wantonly.

Beautifully done, Ming Zhaoxi!

Thanks to that System, everything was developing in the most ideal direction for Lu Zhuxin.

Without Ming Zhaoxi, Lu Zhuxin couldn’t have so smoothly guided Qu Qingtang’s thoughts into exactly what she wanted.

Too well done, Ming Zhaoxi.

Lu Zhuxin didn’t even know how to praise her anymore.

Qu Qingtang seemed to trust Ming Zhaoxi greatly, without any doubt about Ming Zhaoxi’s intelligence.

This way, as long as Song Shiyuan was sent away from Fox Palace, and once Hu Xian’er finished preparations on her end, she could initiate the final stage of the plan.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhuxin became inexplicably excited.

“Hah…”

She felt her heartbeat accelerating, her body temperature rising, even her breathing gradually becoming rapid.

Oh no.

She had laughed too excitedly and accidentally stirred up her heat period again.

Lu Zhuxin raised her hand to cover the meridian on her neck.

Where her hand touched, it was warm all over.

She took several deep breaths before slowly suppressing the heat.

[Host, you seem very happy?]

Lu Zhuxin pressed her lips together, her face full of joy.

“Yes… I’m very happy. I’m truly very happy.”

“It’s so wonderful to have met you!”

“I need to thank you!”

[Ah? Host, when did you become so polite?]

[Haha… actually I didn’t really do much… haha…]

Miss System’s words sounded very happy.

[Host, you’re making me a bit embarrassed with this.]

[What do you think of Qu Qingtang now?]

Lu Zhuxin laughed lightly. She raised her head slightly, looking at the clouds in the sky.

“She’s wonderful… she’s truly wonderful…” Lu Zhuxin said softly.

“Originally, a woman like her was, to me, like clouds in the sky.”

“And I could only stand on the ground and watch from afar.”

“I never thought that clouds from the sky could actually transform into a fairy and descend to my side.”

“System… I previously thought this transmigration would be the beginning of a tragedy…”

“But at this moment, I feel I’m actually so fortunate…”

“If not for you… I wouldn’t have met Qu Qingtang…”

“I also wouldn’t have known… that being cherished and protected in someone’s palm, having someone understand my heart and comprehend my thoughts, could be such a happy thing…”

“I’m truly so happy…”

“I really, truly like her so much…”

[Hehe! As long as host is happy!]

[I told you Qu Qingtang is a wonderful partner!]

Rеаⅾ oո КatRеаdіոɡСаfe

[As the system, I’m also very happy that host can achieve a happy ending with Qu Qingtang.]

[So host, have you thought about how to interact with Qu Qingtang going forward?]

[For instance… when will you marry her?]

This was a good question.

Lu Zhuxin also needed to start thinking about how to proceed with the next step of the plan.

Getting a Venerable Saint to fall into a trap without any defenses wasn’t an easy matter.

After what just happened, Qu Qingtang would no longer suspect Lu Zhuxin’s relationship with Song Shiyuan.

However, if she wanted to truly make Qu Qingtang completely trust Lu Zhuxin, there was still a bit of distance.

Lu Zhuxin could sense that gap.

She didn’t know why, despite such a successful performance, Qu Qingtang still hadn’t completely trusted her.

But it didn’t matter.

Just now, Lu Zhuxin had already thought of the next plan.

Just as Lu Zhuxin had told the system before, love was built on mutual trust between both parties.

The best acting was genuine sincerity.

And the prerequisite for gaining the other party’s trust was to completely entrust one’s own trust.

“Heh~~!”

Lu Zhuxin stroked the warm meridian on her neck.

The corners of her mouth curved into a faint smile.

“Before marriage, I want Qu Qingtang to understand my true feelings.”

[Hmm? What does host want to do?]

“I want to give myself to her.”

Lu Zhuxin touched her neck, saying with a serious expression.

“I want to completely become… her person.”

Reаԁ oո КαtRеaⅾіոɡСafе

[Host, have you decided to let her mark you?]

[As the original author, you should understand what it means for a fox demon to let a sword cultivator plant a mark during heat period, right?]

…

On the other side.

Qu Qingtang was looking at Song Shiyuan before her with an apologetic expression.

“I’m very sorry…”

“I’m truly very sorry…”

“Little Shiyuan.”

“I don’t want to deceive you, not even with well-intentioned lies.”

“You have the right to know the truth…”

Song Shiyuan’s body stiffened slightly. She looked at Qu Qingtang, her face showing a trace of disbelief.

She forced out a smile with difficulty.

“Master… what are you saying?”

Song Shiyuan’s hands trembled lightly, her eyes also quivering slightly.

She stepped forward.

“Master… you’re joking, right?”

Qu Qingtang lowered her eyes slightly, overflowing with sorrow.

“I’m truly very sorry…”

“But I still must tell you this.”

“Just last night, the Fox Monarch explained to me everything she knew.”

“In the previous Fox Palace turmoil… the three hundred seventeen fox demon maidservants in Fox Palace had already been transferred ahead of time.”

“And in the post-incident count, of those three hundred seventeen maidservants, not a single one was injured or killed.”

Song Shiyuan’s brows knitted together. She bit her lip. “Master… I don’t quite understand what you mean…”

Rеaԁ оn ΚαtReαԁіոɡСαfе

Qu Qingtang looked at her and said, “Zhuxin told me last night that in Fox Palace, there has never been a fox demon called ‘Ming Zhaoxi.'”

Song Shiyuan’s eyes widened. “Master… are you serious?”

“If Ming Zhaoxi isn’t real, then what exactly was my time in Fox Palace these days?”

Her delicate body trembled lightly, her hands shaking.

Her breathing became chaotic, gasping in large gulps.

Song Shiyuan quickly stepped forward. She grabbed Qu Qingtang’s garments, her eyes reddening.

“Master! What you just said, you really weren’t joking?”

“H, how could the Fox Palace possibly not have someone called ‘Ming Zhaoxi?”

“She’s the Fox Monarch’s adopted daughter, promised by the Fox Monarch to Song Shixuan as a female consort!”

Song Shiyuan gripped Qu Qingtang’s sleeves, her hands clenched tightly, veins bulging.

“Little Shiyuan…” Qu Qingtang reached out and pressed down on Song Shiyuan’s hands.

“You said before… the Fox Monarch summoned you to be a female consort, right?”

Song Shiyuan froze slightly. She nodded. “Yes, that’s why I could move freely within Fox Palace.”

“That’s where the problem lies.” Qu Qingtang said, “I’ve pledged my life to Zhuxin.”

“As dao companions, I naturally needed to ask her clearly about these matters.”

“But Zhuxin told me…”

“She cultivated in seclusion for a thousand years, never became intimate with anyone, and would never let people approach her side.”

“At the same time, she also wouldn’t…”

Qu Qingtang paused.

“She wouldn’t suddenly let a weak sword cultivator… become her female consort…”

She looked at Song Shiyuan.

“Shiyuan… do you understand what I mean?”

Song Shiyuan looked at Qu Qingtang with disbelief.
