My wife is a dragon.

Chapter 37 Who is blushing? !
As it’s getting close to dinner time, many food trucks have already been pushed out from the alley outside the Shangdong Chaoyang community.

From boxed lunches at 15 yuan a portion to all-you-can-eat home-cooked buffets at 20 yuan, the biggest difference between the old city and the new city is that the lunch here focuses on being economical and filling.

If it were normal, Xia Li would basically solve his food problem here.

But today, he decided to have something nice.

After all, he now has over ten thousand yuan in savings, and he has also found some part-time jobs online, so he can occasionally use some of his spare time to take Lucia out to see the world.

After checking the route on his mobile phone, Xia Li put the phone back into his pocket.

"No, we can find the direction here with our eyes closed. Why are you still looking at the map?"

Chen Tao, who was standing by, was very puzzled when he saw Xia Li's action.

"I haven't been back for a long time." Xia Li said.

"You were only gone for a week, weren't you?"

"A week is a long time, and I plan to go to a new store this time."

"Oh, okay, you lead the way anyway."

Chen Tao didn't ask any more questions. He glanced at Lucia on Xia Li's left, thought for a while, and then slowed down and walked behind the two of them.

I used to walk side by side with Xia Li, but now Xia Li has a girlfriend, and I am just a 1000W light bulb standing beside him.

Xia Li walked in front to lead the way.

Every time he walked a distance, he had to look up to identify the direction.

Haven't been back for three years.

Although only one week had passed on Earth, in Xia Li's memory, these street scenes were still three years ago.

The pipes that can never be repaired, the leisurely old man playing chess on the stone bench, the old lady Hong Wen quarreling while walking her dog, and the unknown small advertisements that will appear on the telephone poles the next day no matter how hard you try to remove them...

Nothing has changed here, just like Xia Li's innocent heart that wanted to return home when he was in a foreign land.

“This is a traffic light.”

In front of the zebra crossing, Xia Li stopped moving forward.

Lucia had just taken half a step forward when Xia Li pulled her back.

"You can't go when the light is red." said Xia Li.

"Oh……"

Lucia raised her head and glanced at the traffic light across the street.

There is not only a light on it, but also a string of small numbers counting down.

"Traffic rules are also the basic rules of this society..." Xia Li glanced at Chen Tao behind him, and seeing that his attention was elsewhere, he lowered his voice and spoke to Lucia.

"When the traffic light is red, you are not allowed to pass. You can only pass when it counts down to green."

Lucia heard this and nodded.

She looked like she was listening very seriously, but Xia Li couldn't tell whether she actually understood or not.

“What if I go through a red light?”

Lucia suddenly remembered the first day she came to Earth. When Xia Li asked her to cross the road, she ran back against the red light.

No...I won't be caught and forced to cook for the rest of my life, right?
It's been several days since the incident happened, so I don't think they will be held responsible for it...

Lucia's fair face froze for a moment, and Xia Li thought that a signal light shouldn't scare the dragon.

But in order to emphasize safety, Xia Li still added.

"If you don't obey traffic rules, you'll be hit by a car and thrown away. If you're lucky, you'll break your arms and legs, but if you're unlucky, you'll just have to drive backwards... which means you'll die."

"so serious?"

Lucia obviously didn't expect that the cost would be even more serious than cooking in prison.

but……

How could this small, square metal car knock her giant dragon's body away?
Lucia didn't believe it.

"Then you have to be careful..." Lucia said seriously, "You are a human being, you can't be hit."

Xia Li looked at the evil dragon's serious expression and wondered why this guy still cared about people.

"Xia Li, it's green."

The countdown of the signal light ended, and Lucia's eyes lit up.

Just as Xia Li said, the car would stop and wait immediately after the lights were turned on.

Human society...is truly amazing.

"I'm not green, the light is green."

Xia Li released his hand that was holding Lucia's collar, and the two walked forward in tacit understanding. "I didn't expect everyone to follow the rules." Lucia sighed.

"After all, those who don't follow the rules are now in jail," Xia Li explained.

This rebuilt road in the old city is very long. After demolishing a large number of green belts, the road surface was expanded into a spacious three-lane road, and the green light time on the sidewalk was increased to a full sixty seconds.

Given this distance and speed, if you are not a young person with a faster pace, it would not be enough to complete the journey.

When they were halfway there, Chen Tao, who was following behind Xia Li, suddenly quickened his pace to catch up.

Chen Tao still felt something was wrong.

Isn't Xia Li too unkind to women?

"Lao Xia, we're crossing the road, why aren't you holding Xiao Lu's hand?"

When leaving the community, Chen Tao found it very strange that Xia Li did not hold Xiao Lu's hand.

With such a beautiful and well-behaved girlfriend, it would be normal to even carry her in your arms, let alone holding her hand.

Moreover, these two have only met for a week, so no matter how you think about it, they are in the honeymoon period, right?

Which young couple wouldn’t cuddle and kiss on the street during their love period? But Old Xia is as steady as an old dog.

What a gentleman.

Brother, I don't know your true nature yet?

"Yes, of course."

Xia Li suddenly remembered this.

In front of Chen Tao, Lucia and I were a couple...

Just holding a hand.

This is not a problem for him!

His eyes slowly moved downwards, and Xia Li looked at Lucia's little hand hanging on the edge of her lotus pink skirt.

The hand was white and tender. The nails were not as sharp as a dragon's, nor were there any dirt hidden inside. Instead, the nails were trimmed neatly and smoothly, and the fingertips were a soft pink.

It looks very delicate and soft.

I guess it feels the same to the touch.

Taking a deep breath, Xia Li held the soft little hand in his palm.

Just holding a dragon claw.

When he was on the continent of Aize before, didn’t he have enough contact with this dragon claw?

It's so funny, it's not fake at all.

"Old Xia, you are blushing."

"Why am I blushing?"

I was already a little nervous, and then there came the sound of Chen Tao saying dirty words next to my ear.

In fact, Xia Li didn't blush, but his overly serious expression made Chen Tao couldn't help but want to make a joke.

"..."

Lucia, who was still staring at the traffic light and secretly sighing at how orderly humans were, silently withdrew her gaze.

She looked at her hands, then looked up at Xia Li.

She seemed a little confused as to why Xia Li would control her hand for no reason.

She wouldn't attack anyone in the street.

"cough."

Xia Li coughed lightly and winked at Lucia.

We are acting! Cooperate!
However, the evil dragon couldn't understand what was going on at all.

She moved her soft fingers, and her palm crawled out of Xia Li's hand like a little loach.

Xia Li thought.

It’s over. This evil dragon is too disrespectful.

Just as he was waiting for Chen Tao to come out and ridicule him, Lucia's little hand that had been pulled away came back and tightly grasped Xia Li's big hand.

The evil dragon's hand was indeed soft, probably because girls' body temperature is cooler. The hand felt cold and soft on the back of his hand, like a warm little ice cream in autumn.

"I'll hold your hand, don't get knocked away," said Lucia.
