My wife is a dragon.

Chapter 154 The Dragon Rewards the Brave (4.6K)

Thick clouds dyed the night sky ink-black.

The winter in Sichuan Province is damp and cold, and the moisture in the air seems to make the wind sticky.

Xia Li lay on the bed, listening to the sound of water dripping in the bathroom, unable to fall asleep.

It felt like there were waves surging in my heart that I couldn't control.

For every sound of water in the bathroom, he would imagine a corresponding smooth scene.

It's normal to be greedy for the person you like, right?
Turned over.

Xia Li felt that there was always something on his mind.

That piece of dragon scale that is full of light...

I hope Lucia will be gentler when washing his face and not rub the dragon scales off.

This piece was not easy to make.

Rather than the appearance of Wuqi, who was also a time traveler, in front of Xia Li, it was the subtle changes in his girlfriend that made Xia Li more concerned.

That tough yet soft touch gradually awakens memories of the Xia Li Aize continent.

At the same time, it also reminds him.

The girl living in his house was not a weak and helpless girl.

Instead, it was a pure-blooded silver dragon that could swallow up mountains and rivers.

After waiting for more than ten minutes with his head resting on his wrist, Xia Li finally couldn't stand the sleepiness anymore.

Half awake and half asleep, Xia Li saw a pair of silver-white horns shaking in his sight.

The horn was shaped like a slender deer antler, rising up on both sides of the head, with a slightly upturned tip and complex and ancient patterns on it.

The horns exuded a bright white color, and together with the mist, they shrouded Xia Li in front of him, as if separated by a layer of mysterious and dreamy gauze.

Xia Li knew what this was.

Is this... a dragon horn?
This reminded him of the days when he was on the continent of Aize. These horns were what he had always dreamed of cutting off.

Dragon horns are the embodiment of power. Cutting off a dragon's horns will cause them to lose their powerful strength.

"Come here."

Xia Li was sleeping in a daze, and the little consciousness he had made it impossible for him to tell whether what appeared before him was real or an illusion.

But there was one thing he was sure of.

The little dragon that had just emerged from the bath was climbing onto his bed.

He carefully embraced the evil dragon.

When he touched the pair of horns, Xia Li gently grasped them. He did not have the thought of chopping them off as he had done before. Instead, he wanted to protect them together with the evil dragon in his arms.

"……Um?"

The hard touch of the dragon horn made Xia Li's heart flash with a trace of doubt, and his blurred vision focused in front of him with some difficulty.

This time, Xia Li saw not only dragon horns, he even saw a long, snake-like tail covered with silver scales?
The biggest difference between a dragon's tail and a snake's tail is that the dragon's tail is not completely smooth, it has fin spines similar to those of fish.

This tail also has fin spines.

However, the thorn is not sharp, and the tip looks round, even a bit cartoon-like.

When Xia Li's hand touched the long, delicate tail, all his sleepiness disappeared and he suddenly woke up.

He subconsciously supported himself with his arms and backed away, but his back hit the wooden board at the head of the bed.

In the unlit room, flames jumped in front of Xia Li.

The heat blew on his face and the strong light of the fire made it difficult to open his eyes.

At this moment, Xia Li was fully awake.

Countless possibilities flashed through his mind...

It was just a small piece of dragon scale that appeared. Could it be possible that the evil dragon could fully recover its abilities? ?
After denying all the guesses in his mind one by one, Xia Li looked at the figure behind the fire. Subconsciously, he couldn't help but compare Lucia's face with it.

There is no tall and mature figure, nor sharp and arrogant eyes.

The girl opened her pair of bright and harmless eyes, with a blush on her childish face. Her expression was so immature that she looked like a naive girl who had just been confessed to by her boyfriend.

"……Happy birthday."

Lucia's voice was tense and hoarse.

She stretched the strawberry cake in her hand forward and put it in front of Xia Li.

"Make a wish~"

The evil dragon said in a soft and gentle voice.

Xia Li: “…”

Xia Li stood there in a daze, feeling the cold touch coming from the bed board, and his Adam's apple rolled a little.

He looked at the flame in front of him again.

This thing turned out to be a candle.

Because it was dark all around, the tiny spark of fire was magnified into an all-encompassing blaze in Xia Li's eyes.

"..."

Xia Li breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Lucia quickly moved the candle closer.

"Snort louder!"

"...How can you eat birthday cake so late at night?" Xia Li was a little amused.

I am really happy, but I was indeed shocked by the series of actions taken by the evil dragon just now.

Xia Li reached out and grabbed the dragon's tail on the bed sheet again.

This tail is indeed made in the shape of a dragon's tail, but when you hold it in your hand, you can't feel the smooth and delicate scales on it, you can only feel a softness...

This thing is filled with cotton!
The corner of Xia Li's mouth twitched.

"It's midnight now. According to the time in this country, today is your birthday."

Lucia held the cake and knelt in front of Xia Li.

The cake smelled so good, the sweet scent of cream and the heat of candles mixed together and filled Lucia's nose, making her very greedy.

"Usually it's that night, rarely in the early morning..."

"Blow it now!"

"Go, go, go."

The evil dragon was urging him to hurry up, so Xia Li had to sit up and accept this surprise.

Looking at the bright fire in front of him, Xia Li closed his eyes.

Make a wish...

The last time he celebrated his birthday on Earth, his wish was to graduate successfully.

The last time I wanted to do part-time work to make money...

Going further ahead, it means making a fortune, winning the lottery, and doing well in the college entrance examination.

It is said that the wishes people make with their eyes closed are an expression of their greed.

But Xia Li thought about it and found that he didn't seem to have anything to desire.

In good health?

He vacant one eye and stole a glance at Lucia.

Lucia behind the firelight was not looking at Xia Li, but was staring at the cake.

"All right."

Blowing out the candle, Lucia turned on the light as quickly as possible.

Her eyes were bright, brighter than the stars outside.

"What wish did you make?" asked the evil dragon urgently.

Xia Li shook his head, "It won't work if I say it out loud."

So Lucia pouted and stopped asking.

The two of them sat at the dining table one after the other. Lucia went to get the plate, while Xia Li took a plastic knife and cut the cake.

This cake is not big, only about six inches in size, and is a very common style sold in cake shops.

Lucia only had the whole morning to go out yesterday, so it was definitely too late to order a custom cake, so she could only choose the regular one.

Xia Li was still a little touched by this.

It turns out that the Dragon God had been keeping it a secret for a whole day, wanting to hide the cake and then give him a surprise?
Putting a small piece of cake on the plate, the evil dragon leaned over and thought the plate was hers, and stretched out its claws impatiently.

Xia Li patted the dragon's claw.

"Over there, the rest is yours."

He pointed to the remaining half of the cake.

"I eat so much?!" the evil dragon was shocked.

"The great Silver Dragon Queen, you can't be unable to eat even a small cake, right?"

"I can definitely eat that!!"

Lucia was in high spirits. She lowered her head and took a bite. The expression on her face instantly melted away and she squinted her eyes in happiness.

"good to eat……"

Zhou Anqi was not lying to her. Celebrating Xia Li's birthday was indeed a happy thing for Long.

This is the anniversary of the birth of mankind. It comes once a year and is a very important day.

Lucia lowered her head and ate the cake. It was already very late at night. The drizzle outside had stopped at some point and the air was filled with a damp and cold smell.

After Xia Li finished his portion in two mouthfuls, he propped up his head and looked at the evil dragon in front of him.

As far as I can remember, he has celebrated his birthday twenty times.

Half of it was spent with family and the remaining half was spent with friends.

This time is the most special one.

Although it was not lively enough, there was only one person, a dragon, a cat, and a small palm-sized cake, and it was even in the middle of the night.

However, the sense of satisfaction it brought to Xia Li was unprecedented.

Xia Li discovered that as long as he stayed with Lucia, his restless heart could be easily satisfied.

She was satisfied, but always wanted more. Extending her fingers, Xia Li rubbed the last piece of cake before Lucia could inhale it.

Lucia looked at him in confusion.

Xia Li hesitated for a moment, then rubbed the cream on her fingertips onto... her face.

Lucia thought Xia Li was going to play the "apply butter" game with her.

Zhou Anqi had told her about this game. It was an indispensable part of their birthday celebrations together in the past.

As a result, Xia Li smeared the cream on his own face?
What does it mean?
The hero hasn't woken up yet and suddenly attacks himself?
The dragon doesn't understand.

After finishing the last half of the strawberry, Lucia was satisfied and started to clean up the garbage on the table.

"There's more here."

Xia Li suddenly pointed at the cream on her face and said.

Lucia: “…”

It turns out to be such a trap!

“Isn’t this cake cheap?”

Seeing the evil dragon hesitate, Xia Li continued.

"It's not good to waste food, Miss Lucia Sivana."

The brave man smiled like the silly son of a landlord, evil and treacherous.

The dragon will not be fooled by this...

But but.

Before going to bed today, Xia Li licked her on the face, and Lucia never fought back.

This time, she had a chance to fight back...

Lucia pinched the corner of the table nervously and leaned her graceful body forward.

The girl's chest was slightly raised, with some cream under her small nose, and her amber eyes were flickering with anxiety because of nervousness.

She was afraid that after she kissed him, she would not be kissing Xia Li's face but Xia Li's lips.

This bad hero just likes to cheat at the last moment.

However, Xia Li tilted his head slightly and did not move until he stretched out his tongue and gently licked the cream off.

The brave man did not do anything bad.

This made Long, who was already very alert, somewhat dissatisfied.

Smacking lips.

The last bit of cream is sweet because it is melted by the hero's body temperature. It turns into sweet syrup the moment it enters the mouth.

It seems sweeter than every bite I just swallowed.

“…Hmph. Hmph.”

Cunning humans!
Lucia picked up the trash, packed it and threw it in the trash can.

Cotton in the cat's bed was awakened by the noise of the two people, and came out and stretched.

Lucia touched Cotton and squeezed another cat noodle for him to eat, muttering, "Today is the Bad Warrior's birthday, we eat cake and you eat cat noodle!"

Xia Li sat at the table and watched this scene, a smile appearing on his lips.

I hope the wish I just made can come true...

"After eating sweets, you need to brush your teeth. I will watch you brush."

After a yawn, Xia Li said to the evil dragon on the ground.

Lucia turned back and continued to mutter to him: "I only ate two bites!"

"You have to brush even if you eat half a bite. Girls should be clean."

"I am a female dragon!"

"Female dragons should also love cleanliness."

Lucia had never liked the tedious and complicated cleaning process of humans.

She went to the bathroom to wash up angrily. Xia Li watched her busying around, staring at the silver dragon's tail and unable to take his eyes off it.

Back in bed, the two of them crawled into their respective beds.

Xia Li felt itchy, so he turned over and reached into the evil dragon's quilt to rummage around.

After touching the dragon's tail, which was smooth... but felt like cloth, Xia Li finally remembered this.

"…Your tail."

“I bought it at the mall.”

Lucia turned in her bed.

It was pitch black around, and Xia Li saw the scales on her soft face that were glowing with silver light.

So, in the end, the horns and the dragon tail are fake, and only this piece of dragon scale is real?

"What are you buying this for..." Xia Li said helplessly.

He almost thought his girlfriend had turned into a little dragon girl!
"Because you said you don't like cats or foxes...so I didn't buy these ears."

Lucia muttered, "I've been looking for the dragon's horn and dragon's tail for a long time. Even Zhou Anqi said that your hobby is really unique."

Xia Li: “…”

This is a misunderstanding!
The reason why he said that he didn't like cats and foxes and only liked dragons... was because he was afraid that the evil dragon would be jealous!

At that time, Xia Li thought that the dragon was arranging a test for him, so he answered the question without hesitation.

It turns out that the stinky dragon was actually asking this kind of question.

I should have answered 'I want them all' earlier!

He stretched out his hand and pinched the cold and hard horns, then tapped them with his hooked fingers.

Xia Li discovered that this thing was actually made of plastic.

"Does it hurt to wear it..."

I was just about to ask Lucia if it was uncomfortable to wear and whether she should take it off when sleeping.

Lucia's face turned cold and she slapped the hero's stinky hand away.

"Don't touch my steering wheel!"

Xia Li: “???”

No, where did this dragon learn these words?
I don’t know if it was taught by netizens on the station or by Zhou Anqi.

But Zhou Anqi wouldn't teach Lucia such an improper thing...

So the only possibility is that the evil dragon learned it himself.

and.

Is this my steering wheel?

"So, this is my birthday present?"

Xia Li grabbed the dragon horn, and Lucia was forced to lean into Xia Li's arms.

She didn't like being grabbed by the horns like this. Although they were fake dragon horns, when Xia Li grabbed them, she still felt a different kind of itchy sensation.

"I just ate your birthday present..." Lucia said softly.

For some reason, she wanted to disobey Xia Li from the beginning.

No matter what Xia Li did, she wanted to go against it.

This feeling is very similar to when I first met Xia Li.

It's similar to the rebellious feeling of "If I do what you say, I will lose face."

But not exactly the same.

This feeling tonight was mostly due to the fact that Lucia wore a dragon's tail and horns.

Zhou Anqi said that this is the behavior that young lovers should have, and it can also be said to add a little romance to life.

Although Lucia didn't understand what the meaning was, she knew it was a reward for Xia Li.

The dragon rewards the brave.

This kind of behavior would be embarrassing for a dragon.

"My gift is a cake? Cake can't be considered a gift."

Xia Li said dissatisfiedly.

"Then what do you want?"

A brave man does many things.

He didn't sleep well late at night and his hands were touching things everywhere, which made Long very nervous.

Xia Li thought for a moment and said, "Can I ask you to do it?"

"How do you want it?"

Lucia burrowed deeper into her bed, leaving only a pair of bright eyes exposed.

The hero's words also sounded strangely nervous.

"Isn't there a ribbon wrapped around the cake? Wrap the ribbon around yourself and then wear the dragon horns..."

Xia Li opened his eyes and found that the evil dragon's eyes were becoming more and more weird, and he was looking at her as if she was a pervert.

So he quickly shut up and changed his words.

"You are mine now, so why should I choose you over someone else..."

He picked up the dragon and the quilt together and held it in his arms.

"Okay, okay, sleep."

"Keep your energy up, we have a date tomorrow..."

After listening to Xia Li's mumbling, the evil dragon moved its body and snuggled into his arms again.

Xia Li closed his eyes, feeling the throbbing in his heart.

He recalled the wish he had just made...

'I hope to marry Lucia next year.'
