Everything happened too suddenly, leaving Fairy Su, who was chewing on the candy, momentarily unresponsive. She watched this man by her side, who unexpectedly raised his hand and gently wiped her lips with his fingers, undoubtedly removing the candy residue. This was already quite embarrassing.

But she had never expected that this scoundrel would actually lick the candy from her lips into his own mouth. At this moment, Fairy Su was on the brink of losing her composure. She stood in a daze, watching Lu Xun beside her, experiencing an indescribable mix of emotions, including shock, embarrassment, and a touch of confusion.

"Aunt Su," Lu Xun looked at Su Jingyi. The lifted veil clearly revealed her exquisite beauty and the mature charm that made her even more enticing. He smiled gently and asked, "Is the sesame candy sweet?"

Su Jingyi finally regained her senses but stared blankly at the scoundrel next to her. She didn't know how to answer him, her thoughts still lingering on the moment he had licked the candy residue from her lips. The sweetness of the sesame candy no longer seemed that important.

"I find it very sweet. Perhaps I'm not just tasting the candy residue," Lu Xun didn't wait for her reply and began his performance again, reaching out to gently hold Fairy Su's delicate hand. He whispered, "It's your lips, Aunt Su, that sweeten my heart with just a touch. If I were to taste them carefully, I might just be sweetened to death."

"Aunt Su," Lu Xun gazed at her affectionately, his voice low and husky as he said, "May I taste them?"

Faced with Lu Xun's deep affection, his magnetic and deep voice, Su Jingyi felt a little dizzy. She knew that his request was going too far, but she couldn't bear to reject him, this rascal who was so infatuated with her.

No, no, I can't agree. If I let him take this step, he might go even further in the future. This scoundrel has such thick skin; he dared to kiss me on the boat earlier. So, I must not agree!

"Go home and taste your wife's lips, you naughty thing without restraint," Su Jingyi broke free from his grasp and quickly walked away from him. Her face under the veil was burning hot, and she felt a little flustered, but there was also an unspoken emotion slowly developing inside her.

No, no, I have to go consult with Mu Qingshuang. What should I do? If this continues, I'll be conquered by him soon. I was already lonely and couldn't bear it, and this brat is so passionately in love. I can hardly resist.

At the same time, Lu Xun watched the retreating figure of Fairy Su, and a faint smile formed on the corner of his mouth. In his heart, he thought, one day I will sleep with the demoness and fairy together. Then you both will know what it means to be the true head of the family!

As he fantasized about the demoness and the fairy sharing a husband, a sudden pain on both sides of his waist brought him back to reality. He smiled wryly, realizing that having the mindset of a head of the family was one thing, but actually living like one was another. Starting tomorrow, he would have to focus on cultivating; he couldn't continue to live an idle life.

Continuing their stroll down the street, walking closely together, Lu Xun would occasionally sneak a glance at Fairy Su. His subtle glances hadn't escaped Su Jingyi's notice, and she couldn't resist asking, "Why do you keep staring at me?"

"Aunt Su, do you have any close friends?" Lu Xun asked softly. "I mean those who are similar in age and appearance to you and haven't had any relationships with men so far. Do you have such a close female friend?"

Hearing his words, a charming widow with impeccable grace, an exquisite figure, and age without any male companions came to mind. She completely fit the description Lu Xun had given.

"Your wife told me that you're a wicked one, not just mischievous and naughty but also bold in your desires. I didn't believe it at first, but now it seems that the demoness was not wrong," Su Jingyi said indifferently. "Don't have any inappropriate thoughts in front of me, or your head might roll."

This isn't how a fairy should act! Why is she acting aggressively like the demoness?

Lu Xun laughed wryly, "It's not called being naughty; it's called being magnanimous. There's a huge difference in essence. Aunt Su, don't misunderstand. In theory, both you and my wife should have the same place in my heart. However, when I'm with you, your position is much higher, by a large margin!"

However, his usual tricks suddenly didn't work in front of Su Jingyi, who said coldly, "What do you mean by ‘when I'm with you'? Does that mean her position is higher when she's with you? Don't quibble in front of me."

A formidable opponent!

Faced with his first defeat, Lu Xun didn't really mind. All these sweet words were just embellishments, just adding icing on the cake. What truly mattered was action, using his actions to conquer her and make her understand his affection, and then adding a few sweet words. That would be enough.

"In fact, what I mean is, when I'm with Aunt Su, I don't think about anyone else. At that moment, there's only you in my eyes," Lu Xun explained, lightly rubbing her hand with his while occasionally using his pinky to tease.

"Empty words and false sentiments!"

Fairy Su swatted away his mischievous hand and quickened her pace. But under her veil, her complexion showed a slight blush. Why was this rascal so good at melting a woman's heart? Even when she wanted to be angry, his simple words and gentle hand made her want to forgive him instantly.

I… Am I being too indulgent with him? I can't seem to be stern with him. Every time I want to be angry, he manages to make my heart tremble. I wonder how the demoness handles this scoundrel.

"Has Miao Feng ever beaten you?" Su Jingyi suddenly asked.

"Yes."

"The first day I met her, she knocked me out with a single move. Then, I got beaten every day. But since becoming my wife, well…" Lu Xun sighed and replied with a troubled expression, "A man's sorrows are as deep as a river that flows to the east."

Su Jingyi was momentarily stunned, marveling at his eloquence but also feeling a bit lost. She pressed her lips and decided not to ask the question she was pondering. Instead, she said, "So, compared to her, who do you think treats you better?"

Lu Xun fell silent.

"Why does there always have to be a comparison?" He asked, puzzled. "You both have your unique qualities. Why do we have to establish a winner or loser?"

Seeing that he didn't want to answer, Su Jingyi didn't press the matter further. She simply said, "Between her and me, it's a never-ending competition in this lifetime."

"Alright, fight to your heart's content. Let me know who wins," Lu Xun retorted, rolling his eyes and leaving Su Jingyi behind as he walked ahead, clearly annoyed.

Now it was Su Jingyi's turn to watch his retreating figure. Her expression showed helplessness and frustration. Biting her lip, she quickened her pace and caught up to him, whispering, "I don't want to compete with her, but sometimes she goes too far. If you… if you don't like it, I'll try to accommodate her, okay?"

As she finished speaking, she glanced at him from the corner of her eye and, seeing his indifferent response, felt a hint of displeasure in her heart.

"Don't give me that look; it'll make me angry. My temper isn't much better than your wife's," Su Jingyi said casually.

Why are they all so domineering?

Facing Fairy Su's words, Lu Xun was at a loss for words. He laughed with a hint of exasperation and said, "No one has ever cajoled me like this. In the end, you even resorted to threats."

"If you don't listen, it has to be this way," Su Jingyi replied.

Lu Xun nodded, showing a bit of distress.

Fairy Su noticed his concern and a hint of a smile crept onto her lips. She spoke with irritation, "Who told you to provoke her? You've provoked her and then provoked me as well. If it were that easy for you, where would I and her dignity go?"

As she finished speaking, Fairy Su said calmly, "Give me a piece of candy."

Lu Xun obediently took a piece of candy from the wax paper, but just as he did, he heard her say, "Feed me."

Su Jingyi's tone carried a touch of command, yet it was tinged with shyness.

Lu Xun happily lifted her veil and offered the candy to her. He watched as Fairy Su gently bit into the sweet treat, exposing her pearly white teeth, and began to savor its sweetness. Her gaze, as she looked at the man in front of her, revealed a hint of tenderness.

"It's a bit too sweet. You can finish the rest," Su Jingyi whispered sweetly.

Saying this, she quickly turned her head to look somewhere else. The calm surface of her heart's lake had just been disturbed by waves.

"Is it sweet?" Su Jingyi asked softly, her trembling evident in her voice.

"It's incredibly sweet," Lu Xun replied with a bright smile.

"Stinky scoundrel," Su Jingyi murmured with slightly pursed lips, involuntarily maintaining the "Aunt Su and the scoundrel" dynamic. At this moment, she had fully accepted this label, and she even felt an indescribable sense of excitement.

Unbeknownst to them, the number of pedestrians on the street had decreased. It seemed that the two of them had moved away from the bustling city area.

Su Jingyi was waiting for him to hold her hand, but he didn't make a move. Her heart was anxious, but also filled with desire.

In hesitation, Fairy Su intentionally or unintentionally brushed her hand against his back, but the scoundrel by her side remained impassive.

With no other choice, she followed his lead and used her little finger to gently touch his fingers.

In this initial attempt at flirting, she seemed somewhat awkward.
