Starry Sky Railway: The Slacking Sword Saint is Keeped by Fu Xuan

Fu Xuan crossed his arms and leaned against the headboard with a cold expression.

Yu Chen pouted and nestled against her stomach, rubbing his ears.

"I just wanted to hold you a little longer..."

Her slightly trembling voice sounded as if she had suffered some great injustice, and was extremely distressed.

Fu Xuan glanced down at him and found that the guy was holding him tightly around the waist, his face slightly turned to the side, and his eyes were a little red.

"Well... at least speak properly, otherwise I can't hear you."

He held firm for a moment, then his cold tone softened.

Fu Xuan sighed, hugged the adorable thousand-year-old baby tightly, and gently stroked his head.

"Does it hurt?"

Yu Chen shook his head, slowly climbed up a bit, and buried his face between her collarbone and neck. It didn't hurt too much, but he felt extremely wronged...

Fu Xuan was somewhat helpless. This idiot, despite his large and heavy body, was becoming increasingly childish and sensitive...

Oh, it seems that only applies to her; what I say to others...

Suddenly, the scene of that foolish sword saint dominating the entire arena earlier that day flashed through her mind, his extremely cold expression and domineering attitude.

She glanced again at the aggrieved little swordsman who was now clinging to him, seeking comfort...

Isn't this a bit too much of a contrast?

Is he a domineering swordsman to others, but a silly, spoiled husband to her?

Suddenly, I feel like it's actually quite cute...

The more Fu Xuan thought about it, the more he found this guy's silliness endearing, and a smile gradually appeared on his helpless expression.

Perhaps, it's just because he cares about her too much that he acted this way?

"After you take a shower, you can hug me for as long as you want. Can't you wash off the smell of alcohol and food first?"

Otherwise, you'll have to smell this when you fall asleep, won't you feel uncomfortable?

Yu Chen closed his eyes and hugged her tightly.

"I don't want to let go of you!"

"Ten minutes..."

Fu Xuan had no choice but to back down and compromise with him; there was no other way, as brute force was simply not enough to subdue him.

However, she's not very good at scolding or cursing people, and if she says anything too harsh, this idiot might burst into tears on the spot.

"not enough."

Yu Chen refused without hesitation, and Fu Xuan's brow twitched, feeling utterly helpless.

He's probably the only one in the entire Luofu who's so clingy... you know?

"I only have ten minutes left to wait..."

She lowered her voice and said in a serious tone.

Yu Chen secretly raised his face and glanced at her. Their eyes met instantly, and the brief eye contact always made the atmosphere instantly ambiguous...

Fu Xuan's heart tightened for a moment, and his determined little eyes couldn't help but waver slightly.

They were standing too close. She didn't know if Yu Chen could resist her, but she herself was really getting incredibly excited!

Unfortunately, the Sword Saint had his heart set on something else entirely.

"Then...we'll shower together in ten minutes."

"Eh…?"

Fu Xuan was stunned for a moment, his mouth slightly agape, looking blank.

Yu Chen, however, distanced himself and rested his head on that soft surface.

"Anyway, we've showered together twice already, and the day you were drunk..."

"stop!"

Fu Xuan's eyes cleared instantly, and she blushed as she stopped him from saying anything further.

"I wasn't thinking straight back then, so... so that's why... well, you know!"

Yu Chen snorted and dropped the subject. "Then just tell me if it's okay or not?"

Fu Xuan fell silent, her flushed face showing a conflicted expression.

If I agree, I'm afraid he might do something bad, since our relationship is getting closer every day. But if I disagree, he'll definitely cause trouble again...

It made her feel a little numb...

Fu Xuan sighed and looked at him quietly, saying, "You'd better promise not to lay a hand on me..."

Yu Chen decisively shook his head and refused, "How can that be? How can I scrub your back or wash your hair if I don't do it myself?"

Fu Xuan's face stiffened, and she glared at him.

"You know that's not what I meant!"

Yu Chen glanced at her and said in a light tone, "What does that mean? I'm rather slow-witted, so please explain it to me, Master Taibu, otherwise I really won't understand!"

"I knew you shouldn't come with me..."

"Hehehe...I promise I won't move around!"

The sadness on the Sword Saint's face vanished instantly, and he leaned forward, smiling as he nuzzled against Little Fu Xuan.

Fu Xuan pursed her lips and gently tugged at his face and mouth. This silly boy would gradually get her to agree to some embarrassing things.

...

Taking a hot bath and then drinking a glass of warm water is both necessary and beneficial to your health!

Yu Chen and Fu Xuan stood in the corridor, their movements strikingly similar as they simultaneously raised their cups and gulped down water, then put the cups down and exhaled.

The Sword Saint's movements were unrestrained and bold, while the Diviner was much more reserved and shy. However, if Xingxuan and Jingyuan saw their extremely similar expressions and uniform movements, they would probably say that they looked like a married couple.

"Speaking of which, Xingxuan really has a good hold on that little swordsman from the Jingyuan family~"

Yu Chen sighed; he hadn't even seen those two at the meeting today.

Well, perhaps it's also because he followed Fu Xuan and Jing Yuan took Bai Lu, making them seem dispensable?

Fu Xuan blinked, suddenly remembering the scene that morning when Yu Chen was still lazing in bed, and Xing Xuan came over and shyly asked her for leave.

She nodded in agreement. "Their relationship did indeed develop very quickly."

"Hehe, us too, and we'll be even better!"

Yu Chen tilted his head and smiled.

The Grand Diviner gave a haughty snort, shoved the cup back into his hand, and waved his delicate, fair arm at Yu Chen.

"I order you to pour me another glass of water! And it must be cold!"

His tone was serious, and his expression was solemn, as if he were reciting some solemn speech.

Yu Chen raised his eyebrows, shrugged, and turned to walk away.

"It's too cold, it'll give me a stomachache. I'll just use warm water."

"Hey~ But you can drink it iced, it feels more refreshing that way~"

Fu Xuan's face fell, and she followed after him with a grumble.

"No."

Mr. Yuchen showed her no mercy.

Please, okay?

Fu Xuan hugged him from behind, burying her face in his back and acting coquettishly.

Yu Chen sighed, gently pulled her arm away, turned around and picked her up in his arms.

"Don't you even look at the weather? It's already a bit cold. If you drink something cold, what if the pain gets even worse?"

Fu Xuan pursed her lips, hugged his head, and hummed, "Anyway, you'll take care of me."

Yu Chen gazed at her and said softly, "But I can't share your pain..."

Fu Xuan glanced at him, looked at his expression, sighed, and finally gave up.

"Oh well…"

"That's right, that's how a good, obedient diviner should be!"

"You should be the one listening to me..."

The perception of time is far less acute for long-lived species compared to short-lived species.

What is half a lifetime for an ordinary person may be just a blink of an eye for them.
