Chapter 923 - 708: He’s Been Looking for Her_3
"??!"
Shen Tang widened her eyes, hugging the egg and glaring at him, "No bad ideas allowed!"
This isn’t wanting to help, it’s clearly wanting to cook the snake egg!
It’s known that back then this sly fox fought with Xue Yinzhou and was injured; the two still haven’t determined a victor.
Foxes do hold grudges, so saying he has no ulterior motives now is impossible.
Hmph, this fox is taking advantage of others!
Shen Li looked at her cute, puffed-up expression, his fox eyes curved in amusement, and said, "Just joking, how would I dare? Wouldn’t you cook me if I did? But..."
Seeing Shen Tang tightly guarding the snake egg like a mother hen protecting her chicks, he sighed softly, his tone melancholy, "Didn’t you dislike him? Now... made up?"
Shen Tang was momentarily at a loss for words.
She remembered what she said before, that even if Xue Yansi got married to someone else, it’d have nothing to do with her; she didn’t expect to be proven wrong so quickly.
"Anyway, he regained his memories, and Xue Yinzhou isn’t that annoying Xue Yansi anymore, plans can’t keep up with changes, and he was framed, so I naturally can’t blame Yin Zhou for previous events..." Shen Tang argued logically.
Shen Li sat down on the bed, gently rubbing her hair, understanding that the days of having her all to himself are inevitably ending.
But seeing her happy is more important than anything.
Shen Li said, "I read in some ancient texts before that there’s a special Energy Baryte that can catalyze beast eggs, helping them hatch earlier. It’s usually used when incubation takes too long, risking stillbirth... not sure if it’ll work for him. I’ll help you search for it when I have time, worth a try."
"That’s great, Brother Li, you’re the best~" Shen Tang said sweetly, extremely happy.
Shen Li was also very pleased.
Servants brought in fruit and snacks.
Shen Li picked up a light green fruit resembling a green grape with his slender fingers, leaning over to feed it to her mouth, "This is a Glazed Fruit tribute from the Spiritual Monkey Clan, try the taste?"
Shen Tang bit down from his hand, the fruit was full, juicy, sweet with a hint of sourness.
"Delicious."
As she ate, she suddenly remembered the white fox servant who often picked fruits for her in the past and casually asked, "By the way, where’s that boy named Ning Si? Haven’t seen him these days?"
Shen Li, "I transferred him somewhere else."
She pouted, "So sudden? I kind of miss him."
Shen Li’s eyes deepened, giving a smile that’s not really a smile, "Why? Want him back? Taken a liking?"
The jealousy was almost tangible!
Shen Tang mischievously said, "Of course, he works diligently, looks young and handsome and obedient, I quite like it... hm!"
Shen Li pulled her into his arms, lowering his head to kiss her lips, hot and dominating, "Then definitely can’t keep him, one fox is enough."
Shen Tang secretly chuckled triumphantly, reaching to hook his neck, actively leaning in.
Soon, she became soft as spring water from his kisses, her gaze blurred, shimmering with water light.
Shen Li’s breathing became heavy, holding her as they fell onto the bed, his fingers gently brushing her disheveled hair on her forehead, his eyes filled with infatuated desire.
Just about to continue, Shen Tang suddenly felt a concealed gaze, her breath caught.
Instinctively released her spiritual power to probe, yet found nothing.
Strange, was it an illusion?
"Be good, focus." Shen Li gently bit her, his low, husky breath brushing against her ear, making her entirely soft!
Soon, Shen Tang couldn’t bother with anything else, collapsing in his embrace.
Red gauze descended, bed shadows swayed.
A night of romance.
...
After a few more days, with Shen Tang’s diligent treatment, good news finally arrived.
"Madam, the Family Head asked me to tell you, the old lady has awakened!"
Upon hearing the news, Shen Tang was filled with excitement, after so many days of treatment, the Blood Clan grandmother finally awoke.
She couldn’t care about anything else, immediately hurrying over.
Su Jiu’s body had already recovered, deep red hair regrown, her complexion fair and rosy, completely different from the dry appearance when she was rescued from the lab.
When Shen Tang arrived, seeing the beauty on the bed, she couldn’t help but hold her breath, her eyes full of amazement.
Even though it’s not the first time seeing Su Jiu, each time she gazes upon this Blood Clan grandmother, she’s shocked by her beauty.
Truly a breathtaking beauty!
The portrait had already been stunning, but seeing her healthy true form revealed she was even more beautiful, a beauty beyond compare!
If she were male, she’d probably fall in love at first sight!
Su Jiu had long deep red hair, strikingly beautiful features, especially when those eyes open, the translucent red pupils were like the finest red rubies, possessing a cold, rich allure surpassing the Fox Clan’s charm.
But Su Jiu’s demeanor was gentle and harmonious, contrasting with her looks, now in her forties, the beauty ingrained by time softened the overly intense allure, emanating a peaceful and serene grace.
Shen Li stood by the bed, looking at the awakened Su Jiu, rarely showing nervousness.
He stepped closer, softly speaking, "Mother, you’re awake."
