REBIRTH OF THE QUEEN

"Thank you," said Huang Bao once again.

"Then maybe I should say goodbye now, kid," he added, getting up from the chair.

"Very well, Master," Fu Xie Lan replied.

Huang Bao just nodded then slowly walked over, stepping towards the open door.

But the two figures suddenly froze in place, no one knows since when Gu Yi had been standing in the room, right next to the door, leaning with only one leg supporting his body, his arms folded pressed against his chest, his eyes were closed.

"Excuse me," said Huang Bao then left.

"Good night, Master," said Fu Xie Lan who only got a nod from the old man.

And after seeing him disappear at the end of the stairs, Fu Xie Lan turned around and closed her bedroom door from the inside.

"Are you done with your affairs?" asked Fu Xie Lan as she walked towards the bed.

But her steps stopped, her hand was suddenly pulled back and it managed to make the girl's body hit Gu Yi's chest.

Fu Xie Lan didn't fight back and just let Gu Yi hug her as long as he wanted.

Staying in that position for a few minutes, Gu Yi seemed very reluctant to let go of the girl's tiny body.

"Why haven't you slept yet? Hmm? It's so late," asked Gu Yi, starting to sound.

"How can I sleep if I don't know where you are, and whether you're okay or not," Fu Xie Lan replied.

"Besides, you saw for yourself earlier, my Master visited," she added.

Gu Yi did not answer Fu Xie Lan's words.

"Let go, I'm hot," the girl pleaded, and at that moment Gu Yi loosened his hand and then released his embrace from Fu Xie Lan's body.

Feeling hee body freed, Fu Xie Lan immediately turned around and continued walking towards the bed.

"I want to go."

Fu Xie Lan's steps stopped again when she heard the man's voice, only a few seconds, and then resumed walking. Sitting leaning on the bed, staring at the man who was still leaning against the side of the wall, didn't move at all.

"Then just go," Fu Xie Lan replied lightly.

"Don't you always disappear? Go somewhere without notifying me at all?" she added again.

"But this time, it might take a little longer, Queen," said Gu Yi, starting to get up from his position, following Fu Xie Lan. A harsh sigh escaped his lips.

Hearing this, Fu Xie Lan was silent, wanting to reply to her husband's words but she seemed at a loss for words. Her heart and feelings felt a little heavy just by hearing it.

Seeing no response, Gu Yi continued.

"Don't worry, I already spoke to Hao to help you when the pain returns." Yes, although he doesn't want a man to approach or even touch his wife, this time seems to be an exception.

He had to go if he delayed any longer, Gu Yi didn't know what would happen next, and after much thought, he decided to ask Hao to take care of Fu Xie Lan, because magic beasts spirit like Hao have no lust for the opposite sex, so maybe with that in mind, Gu Yi decided to choose Hao.

"But, I hope. I hope you are fine while I'm not around, Queen," Gu Yi said.

All the parting words that came out of his mouth, Fu Xie Lan didn't reply.

The girl was silent, for some reason her chest suddenly tightened. Though Gu Yi would only be gone for a while, not forever, however, what Fu Xie Lan felt was as if they were about to part and would never meet again.

Fu Xie Lan knew very clearly, the man had his affairs, he had a life of his own which he didn't seem ready to tell her.

Up until now, Fu Xie Lan still didn't know anything about her husband. How is his life, what he's been through all this time, what happened to him before they met, and what he faces every time he disappears?

Her knowledge of Gu Yi's figure was very meager. But what can she do? She couldn't force him to tell her everything.

So she can only patiently wait for the time that the man will tell her all about it.

Maybe because Gu Yi had his reasons. And Fu Xie Lan appreciated that.

"I will try to return as soon as possible," said Gu Yi again when he had not heard any response from his little wife.

"Is it dangerous?" asked Fu Xie Lan, her face lowered slightly and only stared at the tips of her nails. In a way, the girl knew that what he was asking just now seemed to be the right thing, for whenever the man disappeared, the smell of blood lingered on his body when he returned. The same as now, even though it was very faint, but the girl could still feel its scent.

Gu Yi was silent, it was the man's turn not knowing how to respond.

"Take care of yourself, for my sake," said Fu Xie Lan again when she didn't get any response from her husband, somehow the words escaped her lips.

Hearing the words his little wife spoke, Gu Yi just smiled. He slowly grabbed the girl's head and brought her against his chest, stroking her hair in such a gentle motion, as if afraid of hurting the girl.

"Okay. Don't worry, I will definitely come back and make lots of children with you," Gu Yi said then chuckled.

"Awww."

At the same time, Gu Yi was given a small pinch from the girl.

"I'm just joking, Queen," he said and then kissed Fu Xie Lan's forehead for a long time.

"While I'm away, don't tease the guy behind me. If I ever come back and see a few more guys following you, I'll punish you, Queen. I guarantee you won't be able to walk for a month."

"I've never done it with men," Fu Xie Lan retorted.

"Who says it? The proof is me," Gu Yi said with a wink.

Hearing this, Fu Xie Lan rolled her eyes in embarrassment. "I never teased you. After all, with that perverted brain of yours, no woman will ever like you," she replied.

"Is that true? Okay, maybe someday I should try to flirt with other women to see if what you said is true or not," Gu Yi chuckled.

"Erm try it, if you want to see me blow up someone's body."

"That's so bad..." Gu Yi said as if sad.

"Whatever," Fu Xie Lan was a little annoyed. Somehow the feeling of being claustrophobic just a moment ago quickly turned into what it is now.

Gu Yi was indeed very good at fiddling with her feelings.

"Then, instead of continuing to say the impossible, what if this pervert wants you? Hmm?"
