Marrying a White Snake Wife is Super Cool

’After all, Lu Yuan isn’t a midwife. It’s best not to let my man watch if he isn’t mentally prepared, lest he lose interest in me later.’

For Song Meiqin to remain so rational under these circumstances showed just how intelligent she was.

Lu Yuan didn’t care about any of that. He slowly picked Song Meiqin up and laid her flat on the heated brick bed.

Lu Yuan grabbed Song Meiqin’s ankles with both hands and gently pushed them up, helping her bend her legs.

He covered her with a quilt.

Su Liyan, who had just put her daughter Lu Ruyan to bed and was about to sleep herself, didn’t even have time to change out of her nightgown. As it was cold, she just pulled on a pair of long stockings for warmth and hurried to Song Meiqin’s room.

Lu Yuan merely glanced at Su Liyan and asked, "Is everyone settled?"

Su Liyan, dressed in her long gown, nodded. "Don’t worry!"

Several maids surrounded Zhao Qiao’Er. They were looking after Lu Yuan’s eldest daughter, Lu Ruyan, and his second daughter, Huanhuan.

With a fierce battle raging outside the mansion, Su Liyan had no choice but to entrust her daughters to Aunt Zhao.

Although Su Liyan’s daughter was only a little over a year old, she already had the ability to protect Aunt Zhao.

If any witless villain dared to burst into Zhao Qiao’Er’s room, they would just become another ice sculpture.

Su Liyan’s father and mother had gone to her younger brother Su Changliang’s residence a few days ago, so they were not in the Lu Mansion at this time.

Meanwhile, Gu Gaoxu was still lying in the guest room. The guy had fallen asleep right after eating dinner and taking his medicine, and not even the huge commotion outside had woken him.

His snores were deafening!

When Su Liyan entered Song Meiqin’s room, she didn’t need to ask to understand what was happening.

Having given birth before, Su Liyan was experienced. She gathered a few maids and servants from the courtyard and began ordering them to prepare hot water, scissors, and other items for the delivery.

"Yes, Madam." At Su Liyan’s command, the maids and servants sprang into action.

’I can’t help but feel a little panicked,’ Lu Yuan thought. ’The entire mansion needs me to oversee things.’

But because Song Meiqin was going into premature labor, Lu Yuan couldn’t leave her room!

He had to entrust everything else to others.

Holding Song Meiqin’s legs apart, Lu Yuan shouted, "Aunt Song, push! The baby’s almost here!"

Song Meiqin was in agony, screaming in pain.

"She’s hemorrhaging?" Lu Yuan exclaimed in shock.

Su Liyan rushed forward, concerned. "Lu Yuan, why is she hemorrhaging?"

Lu Yuan pulled a hemostatic and analgesic Elixir from his robes and stuffed it into Su Liyan’s hand. "Honey, get some warm water, dissolve this Elixir, and have Aunt Song drink it!"

Su Liyan poured a cup of warm water, dissolved the hemostatic and analgesic Elixir in it, and helped Aunt Song drink it. Only then did the situation improve significantly.

"Push!" Lu Yuan transferred his Inner Strength to Aunt Song, giving her enough stamina to deliver the baby.

More than ten minutes passed, but the sounds of fighting outside the Lu Mansion had not subsided.

The masked assailants were all valiant and skilled fighters. The Jinyi Guard were clearly losing; their defeat was only a matter of time.

Some of the masked men had already broken through the Jinyi Guard’s defensive line and leaped onto the walls of the Lu Mansion.

Lu Yuan remained crouched, delivering Song Meiqin’s baby.

Su Liyan said, "Lu Yuan! Someone’s broken into the mansion. I’ll go deal with it!"

Lu Yuan was so busy he had almost forgotten about Gu Gaoxu. "Honey, you have a more important job. Go to Gu Gaoxu and guard him. Don’t let anyone get near him!"

The masked men’s operation was targeting Gu Gaoxu.

Su Liyan pointed at herself, confirming, "Me?"

’Gu Gaoxu is a grown man. For me to go guard him at this hour is truly improper.’

Lu Yuan looked at Su Liyan and gave a wry smile. "Honey, you can just guard him from the room next door."

Su Liyan could only pout and say, "Fine, then!"

After Su Liyan left, Lu Yuan continued to assist with the birth.

A few maids attended to them from the side, marveling internally. ’Our master is so multi-talented! He can even do the work of a midwife!’

Su Liyan moved quickly under the eaves of the corridor, wanting to first return to her room to change out of her nightgown before going to the room next to Gu Gaoxu’s.

As she walked under the eaves, Su Liyan merely glanced at the masked men who had rushed into the mansion, but she didn’t intervene.

The masked men who stormed into the mansion were quickly mobbed by the Mansion Guards and tied up.

The Lu Mansion’s guards were not weak, and they were fighting with superior numbers. The advantage was on their side!

Before Su Liyan could reach her room, a cold wind brushed past her face, carrying a foul, fishy stench.

’This is bad! Something’s happened!’

Su Liyan cried out internally. ’Lu Yuan was right. A foul creature really has come.’

Gu Gaoxu was lying on his bed, his head tilted as he snored, drool trickling from the corner of his mouth. His snores were deafening.

He was completely unaware that a massive, dark-green spider was perched above him, spinning a web...

The great spider was covered in a layer of stiff bristles, tougher than a boar’s, and its eight legs were lined with barbs that glinted like silver scythes.

The dark-green spider spat out white silk as thick as hemp rope, which began to wrap around Gu Gaoxu’s feet.

The white silk was coated in an anesthetic toxin, preventing the prey from noticing anything unusual.

Su Liyan kicked the door in and bellowed, "Insolence! How dare you cause trouble in the Lu Mansion!"

Gu Gaoxu, who had been sleeping soundly, was jolted awake by the shout. He shot up and saw Su Liyan standing at the door. Dressed in a black nightgown, she was half-hidden in the dim light, her scarlet eyes flashing with a murderous aura that made Gu Gaoxu want to tremble uncontrollably.

’What in the world is going on?’ Gu Gaoxu wondered.

Having lost all his Martial Arts, Gu Gaoxu said meekly, "Ma’am, you know I’m staying in the Lu Mansion, and Brother Lu agreed to it. What is this...?"

Su Liyan stared at the dark-green spider above Gu Gaoxu and snapped, "Get down here, now!"

Gu Gaoxu thought she was talking to him and said with an appeasing smile, "Ma’am, you haven’t undergone atavistic transformation, have you? Why are you in such a temper?"

As he spoke, Gu Gaoxu started to get out of bed, only to suddenly find his legs wouldn’t move.

’Holy crap, I’m the mighty son of King Yan. Since when do I get so scared my legs freeze up?’ Gu Gaoxu grumbled to himself and punched his own leg.

But when his fist landed, it didn’t feel like he had hit his leg. Instead, he struck something sticky.

Still sitting, Gu Gaoxu leaned forward to look and saw that his legs were bound by white hemp ropes.

Gu Gaoxu’s gaze followed the white ropes upward, where he saw a giant, eight-eyed spider staring right back at him.

Gu Gaoxu’s face was so close to the giant spider’s that he was overcome with disgust. He couldn’t help but spit in the spider’s face and yell, "Agh, holy shit!"

Su Liyan thrust out a single palm, sending a gust of wind striking toward the giant spider’s face.

The giant spider naturally sensed Su Liyan’s attack. With a twitch of its hindquarters, it instantly hoisted Gu Gaoxu into the air.

Suspended upside down with his legs in the air, Gu Gaoxu blurted out, "HOLY COW!"

Only a few short seconds had passed between Gu Gaoxu noticing something was wrong and being strung up.

Gu Gaoxu’s face swung right into the path of Su Liyan’s palm strike. With a resounding "SMACK," it landed squarely on his cheek.

Su Liyan had just given Gu Gaoxu a big slap from across the room; it was the feeling of being smacked by an invisible hand.

The force of the strike sent Gu Gaoxu spinning several times in mid-air. He saw stars, and several upside-down Su Liyans appeared before him, doing a clumsy dance.

Realizing she had accidentally hit Gu Gaoxu, Su Liyan’s anger subsided a little. She covered her mouth and said apologetically, "Whoops, my bad!"

This was practically Su Liyan’s moment of glory. It was a rare thing for a commoner to be able to slap the son of a Prince.

Gu Gaoxu’s right cheek swelled up rapidly. When he spoke, it sounded as if his mouth were stuffed with cotton. "Ma’am," he mumbled, "aim better!"

With his easygoing personality, Gu Gaoxu didn’t take it to heart at all. Even as his words came out slurred, he was still trying to cheer Su Liyan on.

"Ma’am... go for it..."

Su Liyan adjusted her composure and nodded. She brushed her long skirt to her left side, revealing her long, slender, sexy right leg.

Facing the giant spider that held a hostage, Su Liyan didn’t dare be careless. She assumed a battle stance, her eyes fixed on the creature’s every move.

This action, however, caught Gu Gaoxu’s attention.

Hanging upside down, Gu Gaoxu stared at Su Liyan’s long legs and her nightgown, muttering to himself, "A black satin silk slip dress with a high slit?"
