I touched my own cheek, is it really that obvious that I have something on my mind? "Nonsense, where do I look wronged?"
Just now, the thought crossed my mind for a moment, wondering if he was going to go up to the attic to find Qing Li again.
Qing Li's description was vivid, and she had that kind of relationship with Yu Longting in the past.
Such hatred for me, so real.
"Wronged? Your little eyes look like a little hamster that's been starved for three days and nights. I went to Snake Mountain to gather herbs, and then to perform alchemy," Yu Longting said. "It's for separating the Love Soul from Ye Jiqing's body."
The eyes of a little hamster starved for three days and nights?
That must look extremely red and cruel... daring to eat even people, right?
Am I... that scary when I get jealous??
Shame on me!
It's one thing to be jealous, but to have Yu Longting notice it.
"So, if Ye Jiqing takes the elixir, can he separate from my Love Soul?" Joy surged in my heart, and I couldn't help but smile broadly.
Yu Longting placed his palm on my cheek, "There wasn't such a thing before. I came up with a formula and thought I could use Ye Jiqing as a test subject."
At the same time, a heavy concern weighed on my heart, "Isn't this using Ye Jiqing as a guinea pig? Even if the experiment is successful, won't there be problems without the Love Soul in his body? Could he die?"
"Would I be that unreliable? No one will die. If someone dies, we, husband and wife, would have to compensate with our Yin Virtue—what makes him worthy of that? I'll just create another Soul for him," Yu Longting spoke easily.
But I knew that creating a Soul was not easy.
Even if it is just one of the Three Souls and Seven Spirits.
Just like what happened to Wei Yao initially, a strand of his Earth Soul was taken by Xuan Fanyin.
It did not mean the complete loss of the Earth Soul.
Over time, he would turn into an idiot.
If he doesn't get back the precise piece of Earth Soul that belongs in his body, at the very least, he would need to collect eighty-one Earth Souls to create a new one, and even then, it would not have Wei Yao's original memories.
Souls are both mysterious and troublesome.
I felt Yu Longting made a lot of sense, nodding vigorously in agreement.

"Wife, I'm leaving." In the early morning, I was half asleep when I heard Yu Longting's magnetic and bubbly voice.
In my drowsiness, my heart suddenly felt reluctant, and my wrist stubbornly hooked around his waist, "If I can't bear for you to leave and ask you to stay with me, would that be too willful, too ungrateful?"
"Just say the word, and I will stay. I won't go anywhere. Wanwan, you're the goblin, and I can't wait to spend three days and nights with you in this room," Yu Longting said as his fingers lightly unbuttoned one.
I sobered up a bit, cleared my throat, and grabbed his hand, "I wasn't quite awake just now and talked nonsense. Go ahead with your work if you have to."
"Call me husband, and I'll go," Yu Longting undid another button, his eyes deep with unspeakable restraint, as if laden with ancient self-control.
I held his face just in time, kissing him on the tip of his nose, "Husband."
The moment I spoke, my heart fluttered with a numbing sensation.
My entire face blushed thoroughly...
That word seemed to carry a deep meaning, and saying it made me feel infected, utterly dazed.
"Hehe~" The satisfied laugh of the man was still in my ears, but his body had already disappeared.
I couldn't help but exhale a breath of stale air and turned over to hug the blanket, "Why… is my jealousy so strong, not even a grain of sand can be tolerated in my eyes; I only hope that he has belonged to me since ancient times, if someone else touches him, it feels like…" My mentality is exploding!
Pregnant women are typically sleepy.
I haven't been as diligent as before, idling away in bed until noon.
Seeing the midday sun, I knew I couldn't keep wasting time.
Just as I was about to get up, I felt something was off.
Although it was early winter, the sun was splendid, and the weather didn't actually feel that cold.
Yet the entire room was as chilling as an ice cellar, as if a cold current was blowing down from above my head, plunging the room into utter coldness.
Hanging on the ceiling fan above, there was shockingly a head with long hair.
The long hair covered most of the face, revealing a small patch that was white as if plastered, and despite having no lips, it let out a bizarre laugh, "Hehehe... Su Wan, do you really think he likes you?"
