My Demonic Cult's Holy Maiden

Qi Yu said nothing more, but looked towards the side room. Soon Su Yue came out, tidying up and getting used to her new clothes.

Qi Yu and the others in the hall looked over and were all stunned, their breaths catching for a moment.

Su Yue was still a little uncomfortable with the clothes. After adjusting herself a bit, she looked at Qi Yu and naturally saw Li Yulan as well.

Finding that they were all staring at her intently without saying a word, Su Yue looked puzzled.

"Husband, what's wrong?"

Qi Yu snapped out of his daze, quickly shook his head, and said, "No, I was just stunned by your beauty, my wife!"

Su Yue smiled and looked at her own outfit. It was beautiful, and she liked it very much.

"Does it look good?" Su Yue twirled around and asked with a smile.

Qi Yu nodded blankly and said, "My wife looks good in anything!"

Su Yue's appearance can only be described as ordinary; at least by normal standards of beauty, she has nothing particularly outstanding about her.

Yet, it was this ordinary-looking face that allowed her to pull off the dress designed by Qi Yu.

The pale yellow hue gives a warm feeling, and the skirt sways as Su Yue walks, exuding an ethereal charm.

Su Yue exuded an air of nobility in her every move, yet it was not intimidating; on the contrary, this nobility was understated and restrained.

Li Niang was the maker of this outfit, and she had previously imagined what it would look like on a woman.

Su Yue wasn't particularly beautiful, but she looked stunning in this outfit, making my heart race involuntarily.

This feeling is strange!

"Thank you, my husband, I really like this dress!" Su Yue said with a smile.

Qi Yu didn't reply, but looked at Su Yue and stroked his chin.

I feel like something's missing!

Suddenly, Qi Yu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly looked at Li Niang beside him and asked, "Boss lady, do you have any sachets here?"

Li Niang thought for a moment, then nodded, walked to the counter, took out a white sachet from the drawer, and handed it to Qi Yu.

Qi Yu, holding the sachet, excitedly came to Su Yue's side and then personally tied the sachet on Su Yue.

Su Yue looked at Qi Yu, who was so close to her, smiled slightly, and then tiptoed to give Qi Yu a light kiss on the cheek.

"Thank you, my husband!"

Qi Yu raised an eyebrow, but quickly calmed down and continued tying the sachet.

After fastening the belt, Qi Yu took two steps back, looked at Su Yue, and nodded. She looked much more comfortable that way.

However, I always feel there's something incongruous about their styles!

Qi Yu quickly discovered the problem, took two steps forward, and stood on tiptoe.

Su Yue didn't understand what Qi Yu was going to do. Just as she was about to say something, Qi Yu spoke first.

"Wife, don't move!"

As he spoke, he reached out and pulled the hairpin from the back of Su Yue's head.

The hairpin was pulled out, and a head of jet-black, glossy hair immediately spread out, then slid down her back and hung down to her waist.

"My husband, you..."

Su Yue stared blankly at Qi Yu, wondering what his purpose was in doing this.

"Don't move! Leave it to me!" Qi Yu whispered.

Upon hearing this, Su Yue stopped talking and let Qi Yu play with her hair.

"Boss lady, could you please give me a hairband?" Qi Yu called out as he tidied Su Yue's hair.

Li Niang was quite interested and wanted to see what Qi Yu could do, so she cooperated by giving Qi Yu a hairband.

After tidying up Su Yue's hair, Qi Yu tied a hairband at the end of her long hair, fiddled with it a few times, and then let go.

Su Yue originally styled her hair in a married woman's hairstyle, with her hair mostly tied up.

However, now that Qi Yu has removed the hairpin, her long hair falls naturally, making her look much more innocent and lively.

Qi Yu nodded and said, "That's enough. My wife is absolutely stunning now!"

"Really? Don't you find it strange?" Su Yue asked doubtfully.

Qi Yu nodded and said, "No! I like my wife just the way she is!"

Su Yue couldn't help but glance at Qi Yu's disheveled hair and smiled helplessly.

Her husband didn't value tradition much; he didn't like wearing his hair in a bun.

Her husband didn't seem to like the stiff long robes of scholars or the simple clothes of warriors.

His peculiar hobby is really strange.

But as long as he likes it, none of this matters, and I can learn to adapt.

"My wife has changed her clothes, so let's go to the next place!" Qi Yu said with a smile, extending his hand.

Su Yue looked at Qi Yu's hand, smiled, and then naturally placed her hand in Qi Yu's hand.

"Wherever you go, my love, I will be with you!"

Chapter Forty-Five: Fishing for Tranquility

"Husband, where are we going?"

After leaving the Caiyi Workshop, Su Yue asked in confusion.

Qi Yu smiled and said, "Today is an important day for our meeting, how can giving you just one set of clothes be enough?"

"I've booked a boat on Qingxin Lake, let's go boating!"

Su Yue blinked, then said, "Rowing? But I can't swim! What if I fall into the water?"

Qi Yu raised his chin and said proudly, "Don't worry, I'm here. I will protect my wife."

"Alright!" Su Yue said with a helpless smile.

It doesn't matter where we go, as long as Qi Yu is there.

……

Qingxin Lake has always been a popular tourist destination in Jiangzhou City, not only because of its beautiful environment, but also because of the delicious fish found there.

Qi Yu initially thought it was some rare fish that was so delicious that many people lingered there.

But when Qi Yu saw the fish that had been caught in the water, its body inflated and turned into a round balloon, he understood.

It's just a pufferfish!

Qingxin Lake is home to pufferfish, which are a type of fish that can be enjoyed without much seasoning and can even be eaten raw.

As a result, Qingxin Lake gradually became known throughout Lantian County, and it was even selected as a tribute item.

When Qi Yu brought Su Yue here, the most common sight they saw was tourists.

Where there are people, there are business opportunities, which is why the boat chartering industry has emerged.

There are many ferry crossings here, all made by small wooden boats.

Qi Yu had already booked the boat and did not ask the boatman to come along to row.

In Qi Yu's view, this was a rare moment of time alone for the two of them, and going with the flow was just fine.

Qingxin Lake is a beautiful place, with willows lining its shores.

After rowing the boat to the center of the lake, Qi Yu put down the bamboo pole and went into the cabin.

Su Yue was brewing tea, and then took plates of pastries out of the food box and placed them on the small table.

Qi Yu picked up the fishing rod next to him and went out of the cabin again.

"My lord, have some tea first!" Su Yue said, picking up a cup of tea.

Qi Yu nodded, took the teacup, drank it all in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and handed the teacup back to Su Yue.

"Wife, I'm going fishing. I'll make you braised fish for dinner tonight!"

Su Yue held her teacup, smiled, and watched Qi Yu rush out excitedly.

Su Yue knew very well that Qi Yu enjoyed fishing, and it was one of the few pleasures her husband had.

Looking at the bright sun outside, Su Yue couldn't help but glance at Qi Yu, who was fiddling with the fishing line. "He's going to get sunburned in this sun!"

Picking up the umbrella next to her, Su Yue went to Qi Yu's side and opened the umbrella.

"Thank you, my wife!" Qi Yu said with a smile.

Su Yue shook her head, looking at Qi Yu's profile.

Qi Yu is knowledgeable and has wildly imaginative ideas.

She found the hidden weapons and crossbows that Qi Yu had previously created to be very impressive and novel.

Qi Yu quickly finished and sat at the bow of the boat, holding a fishing rod in his hand.

Su Yue sat nearby, holding an umbrella to shade the two of them from the sun.

Fishing is a very boring and tedious activity, so many beginners can't stand it and don't have much patience.

Su Yue doesn't know how to fish, but she doesn't find it boring because Qi Yu is there too.

Even though Qi Yu didn't speak, he calmly looked at the lake.

Looking at Qi Yu's profile and noticing his eyes, Su Yue understood why Qi Yu liked fishing.

Because it's quiet, you can think about many things while fishing, and no one will disturb you.

As time passed, Qi Yu's gaze gradually brightened.

dong dong dong...

The fishing float on the lake began to sink, one stroke at a time. Qi Yu snapped out of his daze and lifted the fishing rod in his hand.

The fishing line was taut, and as the fishing rod was lifted, a silver carp as thick as an arm was pulled out of the water, writhing and struggling.
