Chapter 460 - 459: Mr. Jiang Zuo, Who Is the Most Beautiful Woman in the World?

Chapter 460: Chapter 459: Mr. Jiang Zuo, Who Is the Most Beautiful Woman in the World?

「The next morning.」

Su Qi lay beside Jiang Zuo, sulkily tapping him on the shoulder.

Jiang Zuo opened his eyes. "Time for your medicine?"

"Medicine won’t help. You don’t love me anymore," Su Qi pouted.

Jiang Zuo had no idea what Su Qi meant. She was like this after just one night’s sleep; heaven knew what was going on in her head.

He decided to ignore it and go back to sleep.

But before Jiang Zuo could close his eyes, Su Qi climbed on top of him and asked with feigned innocence, "Mr. Jiang Zuo, Mr. Jiang Zuo, tell me, who is the most beautiful woman in the world?"

Jiang Zuo replied with a deadpan expression, "Su Qi."

"Then, Mr. Jiang Zuo, why were you so much more... enthusiastic... after seeing that woman last night? Has Mr. Jiang Zuo lost interest in my body?

Did some other woman activate Mr. Jiang Zuo’s primitive desires?" Su Qi asked, affecting the air of a naive young girl.

But behind that innocence was surely a ferocious, dark intent.

Jiang Zuo really didn’t know what to say. ’This woman is crazy, and not just a little bit,’ he thought.

Finally, Jiang Zuo said helplessly, "It wasn’t that different from the past few days, was it?"

Su Qi shook her head. "No, there was a difference. Last night saw a fluctuation of about fifteen percent."

Jiang Zuo: "..."

He didn’t want to deal with Su Qi. He decided to just pull the blanket over his head and go to sleep.

He covered Su Qi up as well.

"Do you want me to speak with facts?" Su Qi asked from under the blanket.

Jiang Zuo froze for a moment before silently pulling the blanket off.

"Let’s just talk things out with reason," Jiang Zuo said calmly.

PFFT—

Su Qi collapsed onto Jiang Zuo, laughing. "You weren’t like this when we first got together. How many years has it even been?"

Jiang Zuo pushed Su Qi away and got out of bed. He couldn’t sleep anymore.

Su Qi sprawled on the blanket. "You still haven’t answered me. Is my body no longer attractive to you? You have to prove it."

A dark look crossed Jiang Zuo’s face. "My stomach hurts."

After Jiang Zuo had fled, Su Qi suddenly remembered that she didn’t look like her usual self.

’Is that the reason?’

’Whoa, no way. I have to go ask him and make it clear.’

WHOOSH! Su Qi dashed off to find Jiang Zuo.

「Noon.」

Jiang Zuo sat on the bed with a deadpan expression. "Are we done now? Can we go out for a walk?"

Jiang Zuo felt that Su Qi didn’t treat him like a normal person at all. She showed no restraint, even though she had been so shy when they first got together.

"Mhm, time to tie my hair," Su Qi replied with a smile.

Jiang Zuo took the hairband and couldn’t help but say, "You really have great stamina."

Su Qi laughed. "It’s all because my Mr. Jiang Zuo takes such good care of me."

’Heh,’ Jiang Zuo thought dryly.

Just then, Su Qi said, "By the way, since I’ve changed my appearance, do I still need to wear the hairband? Won’t it make me easy to spot?"

This hairband was practically one of a kind. Anyone from the Saintess Corps would recognize it, and even some Holy Land Disciples could identify it.

So, Su Qi was asking Jiang Zuo if she could go without wearing it.

As he tied the hairband, Jiang Zuo said, "You have to wear it, but I’ll tie it underneath and try to cover it with your hair as much as possible."

Su Qi didn’t mind. Whatever Jiang Zuo said, went. If he said wear it, she’d wear it. If he said not to, she wouldn’t.

’I’m so obedient.’

’Where could he find another wife as well-behaved as me?’

"Hubby, don’t you think a well-behaved wife like me is a limited edition?" Su Qi asked, turning to look at Jiang Zuo.

"Don’t move. Let me finish tying it," Jiang Zuo said.

Su Qi then turned her head back. "Well, am I?"

Jiang Zuo said calmly, "I don’t know."

Before Su Qi could get upset, Jiang Zuo added, "You’re the only one I see. I don’t know what other people are like, nor do I care."

Su Qi smiled and sat there quietly. Then she said, "Say you miss me."

As he tied her hair, Jiang Zuo said, "We see each other every day, what’s there to miss... I miss you."

Su Qi, who had already turned her head, said happily, "I miss you too."

"You’re like a child who never grows up," Jiang Zuo said with a hint of resignation.

But Su Qi suddenly grew serious. "I often hear people say that everyone goes through a love where they give so much but get nothing in return, and that’s what makes them grow up overnight.

But I’m different. My love story has a happy ending, so I’ll never have to grow up."

Su Qi looked at Jiang Zuo with a blissful smile. "Isn’t that right, Hubby?"

Jiang Zuo was taken aback for a second, then nodded. "Yeah."

「Sea of Seven Emotions」

On the beach, people began to appear and set things up.

Hearing about the event here, many idle people came over to have fun.

They came whether they had a cultivation partner or not. Some even deliberately invited the Fairies they admired, using the event as an excuse.

In short, the event here was drawing a large response.

And with more people came the inevitable street stalls.

Before the main event, getting one’s hands on some new items was a wonderful prospect.

So, no one paid them any mind, as long as the spots they chose didn’t interfere with the event setup.

In the afternoon, after they finished eating, Jiang Zuo and Su Qi went out for a walk. In Jiang Zuo’s opinion, it was much safer outside than back in their room.

’This month is almost over, right? I should be able to get a break for a while soon,’ he thought.

’What great news.’

"The way you tied this hairband is really pretty, but it’s still so obvious. My senior sister will definitely recognize it if she sees it," Su Qi said, fiddling with the trailing ends of the hairband.

The hairband was tied under her hair, with two strands peeking out from beneath and falling over her shoulders.

It did look very nice, but it was still exposed.

Jiang Zuo couldn’t help but say, "With Sister Jingjing’s special abilities, I feel like she could recognize you whether the hairband was showing or not."

Su Qi looked at Jiang Zuo. "Hey, if my senior sister can recognize me, can you?"

Jiang Zuo said, "I can recognize you at this level of disguise."

Su Qi said, "Really? Then I’ll change into a different appearance next time to test you, okay?"

Jiang Zuo looked at Su Qi seriously and said, "Don’t even think about becoming the Saintess."

Su Qi stuck out her tongue. "You’re the one who wants to be a Saintess. I don’t want to be one. I still want to have children."

Then Su Qi added regretfully, "It would be nice if the Saintess could get married."

Jiang Zuo said helplessly, "What’s so good about having two forms? The way you are now is the best."

Su Qi didn’t believe him. "If both forms were the real me, I refuse to believe you wouldn’t be happy. A different one every day—you’d be in heaven."

Jiang Zuo: "..."

’I’m not interested,’ he thought.

Because the second one would definitely be Jiu Xi. He was worried he wouldn’t be able to control himself, and besides, getting close to Jiu Xi would definitely feel strange at first.

If she weren’t also Su Qi, he would still chop her down without a second thought.

’Yes, thinking back on Jiu Xi, he would start to see Su Qi as Jiu Xi, and that gave rise to... different sorts of ideas.’

Of course, he didn’t dare act on them.

Su Qi didn’t dwell on it either. It wasn’t like she could actually become the Saintess anyway.

"Let’s go look up ahead. I heard there’s a new pedestrian street. Let’s see if there’s anything to buy. It would be great if they have a Magic Book. I’d buy a whole stack for you," Su Qi said, pulling Jiang Zuo toward the plains on the shore.
