My wife is a dragon.

Chapter 271 The Dragon's First Day as a Human (6.2K)

Ten o'clock in the morning.

The cell phone alarm rang on time.

Xia Li opened his eyes drowsily, and as his brain became clearer, he suddenly remembered that he had an important mission to accomplish today.

His eyes shot open.

What caught my eye was a snow-white collar and the warm and soft touch of the tip of my nose.

Looking closely, Xia Li recalled that he fell asleep in Lucia's arms last night.

I don’t know if the dragon used some kind of enchantment magic, but the moment Xia Li came into contact with the gentle land, he fell into a deep sleep. He had no dreams all night and felt refreshed when he woke up.

Dragon chest, premium pillow.

"Morning~"

Seeing Xia Li get up, Lucia greeted him with a smile.

Xia Li had been lying on my chest all night, and my body was a little sore from not moving for a long time.

But this feeling is good for Lucia.

It feels like being a mother~
"Did you sleep?"

Xia Li remembered that when he closed his eyes, Lucia was staring at him. Why was the dragon still staring at him after he opened his eyes?

I didn't sleep at all.

It took eight hours.

"I'm asleep..."

Lucia slowly looked away and stretched.

"I just woke up!"

She said while yawning.

Xia Li stared at her fair little face for a while, then got up, dressed and washed.

The weather on the island does not have such obvious spring, summer, autumn and winter. The temperature here is above 25 degrees all year round. July is the hottest time, with an average daytime temperature of 35 degrees.

Xia Li changed into a clean white short-sleeved shirt and the standard beach pants for the beach.

The cuffs of the short-sleeved shirt are very short, and if they are pulled inward, they will be like a sleeveless vest.

Standing in front of the mirror, Xia Li admired the small silver tattoo on his shoulder for a while.

When I saw this silver pattern for the first time, I was shocked.

Now I like him, he is quite handsome.

If he encounters any problems in the future, he can take off his shirt and the other party will think that he is a troublemaker and will stay away from him.

Quite convenient.

"Why are you so listless?"

Xia Li was looking in the mirror in the bathroom, and Lucia was brushing her teeth beside him.

This dragon can yawn while brushing its teeth. It's really unique.

Seeing her listless look, Xia Li seriously suspected that she hadn't slept.

"No, I'm very energetic!"

Lucia scooped a handful of water onto her face and rubbed it twice, feeling much more sober.

The blue plaid skirt that had been soaked in sea water last night had been washed clean by Xia Li. The wind was very strong at the seaside, so it dried completely overnight.

Lucia changed into a long skirt, put on a big straw hat, and walked around in front of Xia Li holding the hem of her skirt, looking full of energy.

"set off!"

Near noon, the streets are at their busiest.

Lucia had pizza and coffee for lunch, but she couldn't stand the bitter taste of the coffee and her tongue was burning.

After lunch, Xia Li called a car and went to the city center of the island capital.

Embassies from all over the world are lined up on this bustling central street. Each building has a very different style. Not only was Lucia amazed, but even Xia Li was fascinated by them all along the way. He couldn't help taking two photos and sending them to Ms. Fang.

After getting off the bus, Long, who was carsick, stood on the side of the road to relax for a while.

Xia Li looked at the navigation on his mobile phone and identified the direction before pulling the dizzy dragon forward.

The modern building with the largest area is Xia Li’s destination.

"Are you ready?"

Xia Li pulled Lucia's soft little white hand over.

Both of them were so nervous that their palms were sweating.

Lucia nodded vigorously.

"Ok!"

Arrived in front of the spacious and solemn gate.

The man and the dragon took a deep breath, pushed open the glass door and went in.

If possible, Xia Li really wanted to leave Lucia at the door, go in and finish his business and then come out.

But he could do anything else for Lucia except this one.

This matter must be applied for by Lucia herself.

When he stepped into the hall, there were only a few people in the huge office. Xia Li took a number and soon it was his turn.

Lucia's mind kept recalling the process and conversation that Xia Li had told her in advance.

But when she faced the government clerk, she was so nervous that her teeth were chattering.

Not scared, just not in a good state.

Moreover, Long's head was still dizzy. During several conversations, her thoughts were wandering and she looked absent-minded.

With the help of a translator, Lucia managed to fill out the application form and orally stated her reasons and demands to the government officials.

Fortunately, the local immigration policy is relaxed, with no restrictions on age, gender, race, education, language...

They had only one request.

That's money.

As long as you spend enough money, nothing will be a problem.

It's like buying citizenship.

Moreover, this island country itself has a history of taking in a large number of refugees, and they are even more willing to accept citizens like Lucia who are young, have the working capacity and are willing to spend money.

However, when Lucia asked about the settlement price, she was still shocked.

At first glance, 5 yuan seems acceptable.

However, this 5 is not the from China.

Lucia's lips formed a big 'O' shape.

This world is all about exchange rates.

5 magnesium yuan is equivalent to 35 yuan!

price goes up!
Lucia was so surprised that her mouth was wide open.

The government official sitting opposite her and serving her was amused several times by her surprised expression.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Xia Li made a few phone calls and came back.

35 yuan, paid by credit card directly.

Lucia didn't know where he got so much money...

It’s obvious that they only have 20 left!

The difference is 15... Xia Li managed to handle such a large sum of money in just minutes.

Lucia seriously suspected that Xia Li had sold himself out.

"We already had 100,000 frozen in the bank. I asked Taozi and the others to scrape together the money and when we got the 100,000, I returned it to them."

After swiping the card and waiting for the form to print, Xia Li whispered in Lucia's ear.

Lucia's math skills have improved a lot.

She quickly figured out that she was still short of some money.

"What about the remaining 50,000?" Lucia asked in a low voice.

"The gold coins that Old Xia dropped." Xia Li replied.

Lucia: “…”

The image of the kind father wearing silver-rimmed glasses suddenly appeared in my mind.

Lucia felt a little guilty.

When she returned to the other world before, she didn't even think about bringing local specialties to Xia Li's father. She only thought about bringing them to Xia Li's mother...

A bowl of water must be level.

The brave man's father is also the brave man's strong support.

……

Come out from the service hall.

The man and the dragon seemed to have been drained of all their energy and collapsed on the lounge chairs.

Lucia is pretty and has a friendly personality. Her little face is the perfect combination of Chinese and Western styles.

Apart from not being able to speak English, there is no flaw in him.

The interview was passed.

Received the receipt as well.

However, due to the efficiency issues here, it will take at least two days to get the results.

Xia Li searched the Internet repeatedly and confirmed that this meaning is almost equivalent to "pass".

You have already stepped half a foot into the door of becoming a global citizen.

"call……"

Lucia wiped the sweat from her temples and adjusted her breathing.

Too scary...

She was so scared that her tail almost popped out.

She stuttered because of nervousness when she spoke a few times just now, but because she was so pretty, the government official on the other side was patient enough and waited gently for her to finish her story.

The story is made up.

But the determination to obtain citizenship is real.

From now on, she is no longer that cheap dragon worth 48.5 yuan in the convenience store, which is only worth two small pieces of bread, a bath towel and a kitchen knife.

She is a giant dragon worth 35 yuan!

When her identity is revealed, she will be a legal and compliant giant dragon!

"We can go back directly after we get the results the day after tomorrow."

Xia Li paused for a while, then wiped the sweat off his forehead with his clothes.

Not to mention Lucia was scared, even Xia Li was extremely frightened.

Fearing that something might happen, they sent each of them and the dragon back home.

Although there were some unexpected events along the way and the price fluctuated, the result was very smooth.

"You, you, don't you have a two-week visa? Your flight ticket will be in many days." Lucia calmed herself down and looked up at Xia Li.

"It's okay. You can go back early with a visa and change your flight ticket." Xia Li replied.

There is less than two thousand yuan left in my pocket.

He suddenly went from being a wealthy man to a strapped college graduate.

Considering the local consumption level, two thousand yuan is actually enough to have a good time.

Even playing for two more days is not a problem.

"it is good……"

Lucia nodded in agreement, and suddenly thought of another thing.

"By the way, buy some local specialties for Aunt Fang and Uncle Xia!"

Now that I'm really traveling, the culture and customs here are very different from those in China. I'm sure I can pick out some good souvenirs.

Xia Li agreed to her proposal.

You don't have to buy too expensive things, just give them a token of your appreciation.

The workday in Xiaoguo ended very early. Before Xia Li and Lucia had rested for long, they saw the government officials packing up and preparing to close the shop.

The man and the dragon hurried out and bought two bottles of sweet water on the street, drinking as they walked.

There are many places to go in the city center.

But in fact, urban landscapes are very similar all over the world. Compared to shopping, Xia Li is more interested in visiting local natural scenic spots with unique characteristics.

Lucia was the opposite.

She was already tired of the natural scenery.

For her, the culture of different human cities is the greatest pleasure of traveling.

Boutique.

This is probably a standard store found in all tourist cities around the world.

However, depending on the history and civilization of different regions, the things sold in various stores are very different.

In a small shop less than ten square meters.

The goods here are mostly handmade, and each item is full of island style.

Shelves are filled with wood-carved artworks, and hand-woven headscarves cover the walls.

Like most tourists, Lucia went in and spent a long time choosing.

In the end, my attention was attracted by the beautiful conch decoration placed on the edge.

This dragon just likes these fancy things.

The shell necklace strung with silk thread weighs two kilograms and makes a rustling sound when it is hung around the neck.

The fingernail-sized yellow amber contains insect specimens unique to the tropical rainforest. If you put this artificial amber in a dark place, you can even see the night light.

In addition, there are glass crystal balls, hourglasses, and music boxes that sing when you press them...

Apart from the fact that it cannot be eaten, it fits Xia Li's understanding of the word "local specialty".

"I can fish these things out of the sea, and I can catch insects in the woods..."

Lucia just took a look and put these things back in their place.

After hearing what she said, Xia Li's desire to buy these "local specialties" reached its peak. He couldn't just throw the dragon into the sea to play.

There are also rainforest adventures and so on...

Once she gets the identity, she can go wherever she wants.

It is better not to do anything unnecessary before your identity is confirmed.

"It's not expensive anyway... just buy it." Xia Li said quickly.

Lucia pouted: "You can get it for free!"

"Think about it..."

Xia Li picked up a palm-sized conch and said to Lucia, "Let's take the simplest conch shell as an example. Don't underestimate it because it is simple and crude. It is actually very exquisite."

"First of all, most of the snails in the wild have defects. It is very common for them to be dented or infested with barnacles. Moreover, not all shells can be made into works of art... Secondly, the snail shells must be specially processed to be so shiny. The ones we catch ourselves are not only not shiny enough, but also smelly."

"..."

Xia Li's words convinced Lucia.

She turned around and went into the house to pick for a long time.

An Qi's wooden calf, Fang Xia's black pearls, and my colleagues' cheapest and most affordable conch shells...

Even Xia Li's three brothers received souvenirs, which were cool insect specimens of different styles.

As for Xia Li's father, Lucia struggled for a long time and was really unsure.

Finally, Xia Li came up with a good idea.

The Caribbean region is rich in rum.

Just bring a bottle of wine back to Lao Xia, I guarantee he will be satisfied.

The total shopping cost today was eight hundred yuan.

One man and one dragon returned to their residence with a bag full of "local specialties".

For Xia Li, the purpose of this trip ended here.

Now they are waiting for the results to come out the day after tomorrow, so they can go back with their household registration certificates. After half a year, they can come back to get the physical certificates.

"Ah Qiu~"

Walking on the street in the evening, the two hungry people decided to go out to find food first.

The biggest disadvantage of coming to a small country is that there is no take-out, and you have to go there yourself if you want to eat something.

As night approaches, a cool breeze blows along the seaside.

Lucia sneezed loudly.

Compared to the previous two days, I even had runny nose this time.

She rubbed her shoulders, sniffed secretly, and glanced at Xia Li's reaction.

Xia Li’s reaction was huge.

He stopped right there.

"you caught a cold?"

Thinking of the cold sea water last night, Xia Li became worried.

He leaned his head over and asked Lucia with a frown.

"Definitely not!"

Lucia puffed out her chest and assured.

Xia Li stared at her for a while and let go when he didn't find anything unusual.

As soon as he looked away, Lucia's snot started to flow. She hurriedly wiped it with her hand, then looked up at Xia Li with a smile.

That was a close call, I almost got caught with my snot.

However, in addition to the runny nose, Lucia felt an itchy throat and wanted to cough.

This afternoon, she already felt like coughing.

But he was afraid that Xia Li would hear him, so he just cleared his throat and didn't dare to cough.

Oddly enough, she actually showed signs of a cold.

Maybe it was because he caught a cold while playing at Zhou Anqi’s house, or maybe it was because he went swimming in the sea yesterday... Of course, it also had something to do with staying up all night without sleep.

It is said that people's bodies are very fragile after staying up all night and are more likely to catch a cold and get sick.

But, it’s really strange…

What's wrong with her?

Lucia felt strange last night and searched all over Baidu on her phone.

If an alien carbon-based life suddenly came to Earth, it would actually be a very dangerous thing.

The number of viruses and bacteria on Earth is beyond imagination.

In the absence of antibodies, these bacteria and viruses that are ubiquitous in the air can take over the body in a very short time.

It is said that if a person from ancient times traveled through time to the modern era, he or she would die in a matter of minutes because he or she could not withstand the modern virus.

In fact, Lucia herself didn't know why she was not affected by viruses and bacteria at all after coming to Earth.

After much thought, the only explanation is his strong physical fitness.

Due to different body structures, the diseases that can be contracted are very limited.

Just like cold-blooded animals and warm-blooded animals, many diseases are not interchangeable.

so now……

The reason why I have symptoms of a 'cold' may be because my body structure is becoming more and more similar to that of a 'human'?

or...

Because her power was shared with Xia Li.

Strictly speaking, Lucia doesn't even belong to herself now.

She is not a 'pure-blooded silver dragon', but 'Xia Li's summon'.

But it is undeniable.

I have indeed become much weaker now...

Lucia lowered her head and flexed her fingers.

She felt her hands were a little cold.

Not only my hands, but also my feet and body were so cold that I wanted to shiver.

The only thing was that my head felt a little hot, even to the point of being dizzy.

But Lucia didn't dare tell Xia Li.

Xia Li will be worried.

Moreover, this is abroad.

Even in China, it is very inconvenient for her to see a doctor when she is sick, and it is even more inconvenient abroad.

Just bear with it for now...

The condition will improve if I go back the day after tomorrow and drink the sweet water called Isatis root.

Lucia made up her mind and shook her head.

The sleepy feeling was swept away by her strong willpower, and her eyes focused, and her sight quickly locked on a seafood restaurant.

Although she couldn't understand the letters on the sign, Lucia could still understand the giant squid icon.

“It’s so hot…”

Lucia used her hands to cool the red face.

"I'm getting nervous when I think about what happened in the government hall just now... I'm hungry, let's go have dinner!"

Lucia changed the subject at the right time and diverted Xia Li's attention.

He glanced at the glittering squid sign, then looked down at the dragon's slightly red cheeks.

Xia Li decided to take the evil dragon to fill its stomach first.

Using a translator and sign language, the two managed to order from the menu.

Seafood in Haiti is not expensive. If you only order local specialties, you can eat a full meal for three hundred dollars.

Xia Li knew that his savings were less than 900 yuan now, so he would have to save money in the next two days.

If it really doesn't work, I can only ask Lao Xia to provide more financial support...

“It turns out the sign is octopus, not squid!”

Lucia had a very full meal and felt that the food healed her spirit.

There is also rice to eat in Haiti, but the rice here is not as fragrant as the one in China, and the fried rice making skills are slightly inferior.

But considering that the ingredients are fresh enough, Lucia can give it 99 points.

“The octopus is delicious too!”

After savoring the taste in her mouth, Lucia finished the last bit of the coconut and got down from the chair.

"Wait a minute."

Xia Li stared at the blush on her cheeks for a long time.

Very suspicious.

Xia Li pulled Lucia over. The dragon wanted to run away, but after its wrist was grabbed, the whole dragon was like a cat with its skin lifted by the scruff of its neck, unable to move.

He looked like he was ready to be slaughtered by Xia Li.

Xia Li touched her forehead to feel the temperature.

Still something doesn't feel right.

Then he bent down and lowered his forehead to it.

The temperature is almost the same...

Maybe it was because he had just eaten, Xia Li's body was hot and sweating.

By comparison, Lucia's body temperature is almost the same as his.

"I'll let you go this time."

Xia Li breathed a sigh of relief and added.

"I'll buy you some medicine when we get back, and you have to drink it obediently then."

Chinese patent medicines like Isatis root mainly have a preventive effect, so you can take it at any time even if you don’t have any disease.

"Is that the sweet brown powder?"

Lucia blinked, actually feeling a little bit expectant.

“That’s delicious!”

Xia Li: “…”

I thought that 'drinking medicine' could deter the evil dragon.

The result seems to be just the opposite.

This dragon has too little contact.

Once she tried authentic Chinese medicine and then had a taste of injections and infusions, she became afraid.

But then again...

In Xia Li's subconscious mind, he still didn't believe that Lucia would catch a cold.

Maybe it's just that I'm not used to the local climate... he thought to himself.

It was getting late at this time.

In the quiet streets, the sound of the sea waves can be heard faintly from afar.

Today's mission has been completed, and Xia Li plans to take Lucia back home early to rest.

Lucia looked quite tired, but that didn't stop her from continuing to talk tough.

Without saying a word, Xia Li tucked her into bed and let her sleep after returning home.

Lucia was also obedient. After a simple wash, she got into bed with a red face.

Xia Li felt uneasy and reached out to feel the temperature of her face again.

Still feels a little hot.

"Xia Li Xia Li..."

Lucia grabbed Xia Li's big hand and held it in her palm.

She twisted her waist and acted like a cat rolling on the ground.

Although she was very tired and her whole body ached, Lucia couldn't help but feel happy when she thought about the progress made during the day.

"Am I considered an Earthling now?" the evil dragon asked with a smile.

"According to the laws of this world, you are already half a human on Earth... But in my heart, you are already my wife."

Xia Li sat on the edge of the bed, and his tone was so serious that Lucia felt embarrassed.

I don't know whether he is speaking sweet words or speaking from his heart...

"How can it be so fast..."

Lucia pushed forward and made a large space for Xia Li.

It's only eight o'clock in the evening, which is still early for Xia Li. Even if he lies down, he won't be able to fall asleep.

"You go to sleep first,"

Xia Li sat on the edge of the bed and turned off the desk lamp.

"I'll look up some guides online to learn about the subsequent evidence collection process... Go to sleep, you don't have to wait for me."

"OK then……"

Lucia was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes.

For the first time, she, who was so strong, felt exhausted.

When I was a dragon, I could be very energetic even if I didn’t sleep for ten days or half a month.

How come I’m already tired on my first day as a human being?

Lucia opened and closed her eyes, and finally fell asleep.

Seeing that she fell asleep, Xia Li tiptoed to close the window.

The evening breeze outside the window made the treetops rustle.

Under the street lights, mosquitoes kept circling, casting a large shadow on the ground.

It looks like it's going to rain.
