Chapter 190: I'm Not His Only One
As Lu Xun was about to leave, Su Jingyi, who was standing by his side, could no longer restrain her inner emotions. She stepped forward and embraced his waist from behind, her voluptuous figure pressing tightly against his back. At the same time, her flushed and hot cheeks were touching his neck.
For Fairy Su, who usually maintained her composure, to act this way demonstrated the special place Lu Xun held in her heart. She was even willing to set aside her pride and self-esteem. Su Jingyi lightly whispered, "You scoundrel, I can't bear to see you go, and I don't want you to end up in her embrace."
But If everything goes as expected, tonight I will be in Xuan Yin's embrace… Lu Xun gently said, "Aunt Su, don't worry. In the future, I'll spend more time in your bed. I'm just afraid that you'll kick me out when that time comes."
Hearing that he would visit her bed, Su Jingyi felt both shyness and anticipation. She softly said, "If it comes to that… I… I'm sure I won't kick you out, unless you, you are extremely unruly. Under normal circumstances, I… I…"
Lu Xun grinned and said with earnest words, "Aunt Su, you might not know, but when it comes to being in one's bed, it's all about fun and games. If you're too serious, it might be boring. Look at your romantic rival, Miao Fengxian; she loves it when I play around in the bed with all sorts of playful antics. Don't worry, Sister likes it, and so do you, Aunt Su!"
Su Jingyi blushed, bit her lip lightly and said, "You better make sure she has had her share. If I find out she hasn't… you'll see just how unkind I can be."
At this moment, Fairy Su had some doubts. She wondered if her ‘little scoundrel' was using the demoness as a cover to fulfill some hidden desire. However, she couldn't ask the demoness whether she had enjoyed such experiences.
"Wouldn't that be even better? Something that even my wife hasn't experienced, and you get to be the first one!" Lu Xun replied with a cheerful grin.
Su Jingyi frowned slightly, feeling anger and helplessness. She said, "You're quite cunning. Anyway, you think I won't ask the demoness? Well, you're wrong. If you go too far, I'll definitely discuss it with her, and she'll be angry. She might not be able to beat me in a fight, but she'll end up beating you."
"Aunt Su."
"If your man gets beaten by another woman, will you just watch?" Lu Xun said seriously. "I don't believe it! My Aunt Su would never be so heartless. She'll definitely protect me, unless… unless she doesn't love me anymore. If she really doesn't love me, then I'll have to let go. Once love is gone, many things become tasteless."
Despite knowing that he was trying to manipulate her with morality and ethics, Fairy Su willingly fell into the trap. She frowned and whispered, "No wonder both the demoness and I have fallen for you. With that silver tongue of yours, you could make a dead person come back to life."
"What nonsense! My tongue isn't silve but it's still quite nimble, you know. If you don't believe me, ask your romantic rival; she has the most say in this matter," Lu Xun said with a laugh.
Suddenly, Su Jingyi remembered that day and what she had seen. She silently lamented and felt that the demoness might be even more nimble. After all, she had such a long snake tongue. However, on second thought, her ‘little scoundrel' was capable of kissing the demoness even when she had transformed. It must have been quite impressive.
"Aunt Su? Aunt Su?" Lu Xun noticed that Fairy Su had fallen silent, and he turned his head to look at her with a curious expression. "Why aren't you talking?"
"Suddenly, I don't feel like talking," Su Jingyi replied softly. "Even though our relationship has developed this way, while you're learning the formations, you mustn't be distracted, and you shouldn't be frivolous. This matter is of great importance, so don't take it lightly."
"Alright, Aunt Su, don't worry. I understand," Lu Xun obediently replied.
Su Jingyi released her arms, preparing to let him go home. However, just as she let go, Lu Xun suddenly turned and embraced her, catching her off guard. Fairy Su didn't resist at all; instead, she willingly leaned into the embrace.
Even someone as strong-willed as Su Jingyi couldn't escape the desires of love. Despite once disliking men and enduring loneliness, at this moment, she had entrusted her body and soul to Lu Xun. She clung to him, deeply attached, and continued to demand from him.
In the simple act of embracing, they stayed silent, feeling each other's presence. While Lu Xun filled the void for Fairy Su, he also lit up a wave of irresistible impulses within her. At the same time, her resentment towards Miao Fengxian deepened.
"Little scoundrel."
"I'm really so frustrated," Su Jingyi bit her lip, her face full of anger as she said, "Why should that demoness be able to enjoy you, while I get the leftover time with you? I want to go find her right now and settle the score. We should have a proper fight and redistribute the time you spend with us."
But Aunt Su, you do the same as her! You both take time from Xuan Yin… Lu Xun gently consoled, "Come on, Aunt Su, sometimes you should consider me. Constantly fighting with each other is tough for me. Can't you let her have a little space sometimes?"
"Let her? Who will let me?" Su Jingyi raised her head, staring directly into his eyes with a hint of annoyance. "You're being a bit biased, and it's not fair."
"How about… I go find your confidante and let her compete for my time?" Lu Xun asked carefully.
Fairy Su didn't speak. Instead, she glared at him with a stern face. Under this clear and sharp gaze, Lu Xun soon yielded, smiling awkwardly while holding her even tighter in his arms.
"Just kidding, teasing you," Lu Xun said with a bright smile. "Both you and her make me at a loss. If there's one more, I'm afraid you'll team up to beat me."
"I won't beat you; I'll just watch her beat you," Su Jingyi pouted, her voice soft and playful. "You've already got the only two immortal demoness and fairy in this world. Don't give yourself more trouble, and don't make me feel frustrated, okay? You little rascal."
"Oh, alright, alright," Lu Xun said with a cheerful smile. "I understand, my beautiful and generous Aunt Su."
Afterward, Lu Xun left, stepping onto the flying sword given by Fairy Su, swiftly heading home. Su Jingyi, standing there, looked up at the stream of light on the horizon, which eventually disappeared from her view. Her heart felt empty.
"When he gets back, he's definitely going to snuggle into the demoness' bed."
Su Jingyi bit her lip, her cold face full of resentment, as if something dear to her had been forcibly taken away.
Flirting during the day, snuggling into the demoness's bed at night.
Really infuriating!
In a luxurious mansion somewhere, Mu Qingshuang was in her boudoir, holding a book about love between men and women. She was reading with great relish. Although she hadn't had any man for over forty years, she had only ever had a fake and unlikable husband. Furthermore, her husband died before marrying her. But Mu Qingshuang never gave up on her pursuit of love and romance.
In the heart of this unmarried beauty, the man she yearned for should be strong and mighty, mischievous and handsome, gentle and considerate. If possible, Mu Qingshuang also wanted to try a younger man like her best friend.
Sigh.
"Ah, so boring," Mu Qingshuang put down her book, let out a sigh, and rested her arms on the table. She propped up her cheeks with her hands and stared at the flickering candlelight in front of her. The fluctuating light and shadow cast a shade of orange on her attractive face. On one side was loneliness, and on the other, longing.
Even Su Jingyi, that unapproachable fairy, has a man now, and I'm left lonely and helpless every day. No, I can't fall behind her. I… I also need to find a handsome, fit, witty, and humorous young man.
But I stay behind closed doors all day long. Where am I going to find this man? I can't just expect a man to fall from the sky, can I?
Just then, a knock on the door interrupted the widowed beauty's thoughts.
"Could it be that a man really fell from the sky?"
Mu Qingshuang was amused by her own thoughts and asked in a soft voice, "Who is it?"
"It's me."
A cold and unfeeling woman's voice drifted in.
Mu Qingshuang was momentarily stunned, and then her face was filled with helplessness and bitterness as she silently stood up and went to the door to open it. She found Su Jingyi standing at the entrance.
"What are you doing here so late at night?" Mu Qingshuang asked, her tone lacking warmth.
Su Jingyi didn't bother to respond to her and walked into her boudoir, leaving Mu Qingshuang feeling exasperated.
Back in the room, sitting across from her, Mu Qingshuang looked at her close friend. There was a hint of melancholy on Su Jingyi's cold and emotionless face, and Mu Qingshuang asked curiously, "What's going on?"
"Qingshuang."
"I've fallen in love with a man," Su Jingyi said flatly.
"Ah, you've mentioned that before, a young man, handsome, dashing, robust, witty, and exceptionally talented," Mu Qingshuang pursed her lips. "Did you two have a falling out?"
As the words fell, she picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for both of them, then raised her teacup and took a sip.
Su Jingyi slowly raised her head, looking at the woman in front of her, and muttered, "But I'm not his only one. His heart isn't just mine; there's another woman in it."
Hearing this, Mu Qingshuang's hand trembled, causing the teacup to fall onto the table. She stared in shock at Su Jingyi, her eyes filled with astonishment and disbelief, and she appeared utterly bewildered.
