Chapter 183: I was born to be a quiet guest, but I fell in love with the world because of wine!
As she spoke, Yue Ye sat down on a step in the lake, the water just covering her chest.
Seeing this, Lin Ze had no choice but to sit down beside Yue Ye.
Yue Ye's hair, under the tension of the lake water, spread out like clouds and mist, and many of her hair drifted onto Lin Ze.
Seeing Lin Ze sitting down, Yue Ye said in a calm tone: "Take off your clothes. How can you take a hot spring bath like this?"
Lin Ze was speechless for a moment. This was not what he wanted to do.
But looking at Yue Ye who seemed a little angry, Lin Ze took a deep breath. Since Yue Ye didn't mind, he, as a boy, had nothing to be embarrassed about.
With a snap of his fingers, only a pair of shorts were left.
The rest of the clothes were immediately stored in the storage space.
But it was really comfortable without the heavy clothes blocking the way, and being wrapped in the water of the right temperature.
Most importantly, the lake water is rich in spiritual energy. While soaking in the hot spring, it continuously surges through the body, a truly pleasurable experience.
However, Lin Ze's thoughts had settled, and he stopped daydreaming.
He coughed lightly and said, "Sister Yue, since Lord Agares doesn't care about our engagement, why don't you just tell him directly that you simply didn't want to marry Po and chose me out of desperation?"
Hearing Lin Ze's words, Yue Ye felt a surge of dismay. "What an idiot! How could I possibly fall in love with this guy?"
Yue Ye took a deep breath, calming herself, and leaned her smooth back against the carved jade steps.
"Do you really think I chose you out of desperation?"
Just as Lin Ze was about to speak, Yue Ye suddenly continued, "Over the years while running the Yue Ye Chamber of Commerce, I've occasionally read some human literature. There are two lines of poetry that have left a deep impression on me."
"What poems?" Lin Ze asked, somewhat surprised.
"I was born to be a wanderer, yet I find myself drawn to the mundane world because of wine!" Yue Ye, watching Lin Ze, slowly spoke.
Although Lin Ze had learned some human knowledge from Xiao Yun, he knew nothing about poetry.
Lin Ze said awkwardly, "Sister Yue, what do you mean..."
Yue Ye seemed to have guessed Lin Ze's confusion and slowly explained, "The translation of these two lines is, 'I originally wanted to seek enlightenment in life, but because I'm addicted to wine, I linger on the worldly affairs.'"
As Yue Ye finished speaking, the lake fell silent.
So quiet that even the water droplets dripping from Yue Ye's hair could be clearly seen in the lake.
Lin Ze remained silent. He understood Yue Ye's interpretation of these two lines, but he also didn't understand why she would say this to him at this time.
And for some reason, Lin Ze could sense Yue Ye's seriousness.
Lin Ze knew what he should say now. Under Yue Ye's gaze, he paused for a moment before slowly speaking, "Sister Yue, what do you want to say..."
"I want to tell you that my original choice wasn't forced. I chose you because—I like you!"
Yue Ye's words, even if Lin Ze was apathetic about love, understood the underlying meaning.
Was this a confession?
"So if you're asking me how to handle the engagement, I'll just tell you I won't cancel it."
"As for you..."
Yue Ye slowly rose. Under Lin Ze's gaze, she sat on his lap, her arms around his neck, her body pressed against his.
"As for you, you have no right to choose!"
As Yue Ye finished her words, a barrier of wild rice enveloped the entire lake, blocking out all sound and sight from the outside world.
Similarly, what transpired within the barrier was also unknown to the outside world.
From the very beginning, Yue Ye hadn't intended for Lin Ze to leave so easily.
Ever since returning yesterday, Yue Ye had been brooding over how to get along with Lin Ze and Leng Xiao.
She'd even stayed up all night, and finally came to the conclusion that she couldn't give up on Lin Ze.
Even if doing so would make Leng Xiao angry, she didn't want to give up on Lin Ze.
Seeing the surprise in Lin Ze's eyes, Yue Ye leaned close to Lin Ze's ear and whispered, "You were staring at me with such lustful eyes before. Were you thinking about something unhealthy?"
Lin Ze blushed at Yue Ye's words.
It turned out that Yue Ye had already discovered him.
Looking at Lin Ze, whose ears were already red, Yue Ye couldn't help but recall the first time Lin Ze had swallowed her lust and thrown her down. Unconsciously, she lowered her head and gently bit Lin Ze's earlobe, murmuring, "Little man, what did that Xiao Xiao do to you? You weren't like this before. Tell Sister Yue, okay..."
"What Leng Xiao can do, Sister Yue can do too. What she can't do, Sister Yue can do too."
"For example..." Yue Ye paused and whispered into Lin Ze's ear, "For example, I call you 'Master.'"
Just then, Yue Ye suddenly felt something rise up underwater, its temperature even higher than that of the hot spring water.
Yue Ye's face flushed.
Then, with a sly smile, she said, "Master, so you like this?"
...
...
Meanwhile, more than two hours after Lin Ze left, Sidi and Agares finally reached an agreement. To prepare for Lin Ze's future as the Demon King, they would first develop a group of followers and gradually expand their ranks, while also eliminating potential dangers.
After the discussion concluded, Sidi said bluntly, "Agares, I'm going back now. I won't wait for that guy."
"If you don't wait for him, his marriage to Yue Ye..."
Before Agares could finish, Sidi suddenly interrupted, "I know Yue Ye and Lin Ze's relationship better than you do. Just set a suitable date for the wedding."
Sidi was not blind to Lin Ze and Yue Ye. If Yue Ye didn't have feelings for Lin Ze, how could she allow him to consume her lust?
And in that way?
Besides, Lin Ze only had a few friends around him. Even if he didn't have those feelings for Yue Ye, he couldn't refuse Yue Ye's request.
Agares was a little surprised by Sidi's words, but he still chose to trust Sidi. After all, Yue Ye's attitude towards other demon gods was not even a ten-thousandth of Sidi's.
"If that's the case, then let's do it in three days. It's a good time for the humans and demons to be at a truce, so we can get closer."
"Well, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving."
Sidi said, preparing to leave. But just as Sidi was about to leave, Agares suddenly spoke.
"Sidi, I've always had a question. Do you really only see Lin Ze as a tool to break through your strength?"
Hearing Agares' words, Sidi paused and slowly said, "Maybe we had some special feelings in the past, but now, anyone who stands in my way of achieving godhood will be my enemy, and he's no exception!"
With these words, Sidi disappeared from the spot.
