My Wife is an Evil Dragon – Chapter 140

Chapter 140: I Surrender

“Mianhua’s test results are out. Her physical condition is okay, just a little thin, and she has a slight runny nose…”

After sitting on the bench for half an hour, the receptionist in charge of customer interaction came over with a paper report.

She spoke as she walked, and finally concluded, “It is not recommended to vaccinate today. During a cold, the animal’s immunity is low, and the effectiveness of the vaccine is poor. It is recommended to observe for two days and come back for the vaccination the day after tomorrow when the cold improves.”

Xia Li took the report and briefly scanned the indicators on it.

The short dragon beside him was very anxious. Hearing that Mianhua had a cold, she quickly took the report to look at it.

The messy numbers and symbols on it made the dragon confused, and Xia Li reminded her.

“It’s upside down.”

“Oh, oh!”

Lucia then turned the report around and carefully read it with her delicate brows furrowed.

“She probably caught a cold after being splashed with beer by those punks this morning. It’s nothing serious. We’ll come back the day after tomorrow.” Xia Li reached out and pinched the serious little face of the evil dragon.

Lucia touched Mianhua’s nose and found it wet, indeed showing some symptoms of a cold, but this slight symptom was not a big problem for small animals.

Doctor Li prescribed two packs of cold medicine. Lucia listened carefully to the doctor’s advice, her serious little expression as if she were really taking care of her own little dragon.

“Did you understand?”

The two of them went down the elevator holding the cat, and Lucia was still studying the report in her hand.

“Yes, I understand!” Lucia nodded.

Xia Li smiled. It was good to let the evil dragon raise a small animal. Wasn’t the affection for pets one of the unique emotions of humans?

This was also one of the aspects of human complex emotions that the evil dragon could not understand.

The most important thing was to make Lucia happy.

When Xia Li was not at home with her, Mianhua could accompany her.

Coming out of the pet shop.

Xia Li looked back at the spacious and tall building.

To bring out Lucia’s talent, the idea of opening a pet hospital might work.

As people’s lives became more affluent, more and more families were raising kittens and puppies. Pet hospitals, which were once unpopular, were now in short supply.

He would investigate further.

Xia Li took out his car keys, got in the car, and was about to call the evil dragon to get in when he turned around and found that the figure who had been following him was gone.

“Huh? Where’s my dragon?”

Xia Li froze and looked around.

He found Lucia standing by the pet shop entrance.

She was standing at the door of a small shop, rubbing the kitten in her arms with one hand, her eyes curiously looking inside the shop.

Xia Li thought she had found something new again, and when he walked over, he found it was a duck shop.

To be precise, it was a shop that sold ducks.

Braised duck.

“Xia Li, there is a lot of bird meat here.”

Shops specializing in braised duck were quite rare in Qingcheng City. Lucia had seen this kind of cooked meat product in the supermarket, so she recognized it at a glance.

“Yes, this is braised duck.” Xia Li nodded.

“This duck meat looks so pitiful… I want to save it.”

Xia Li was amused by Lucia’s words.

She had just come out of the pet hospital and, after learning that she had a talent for being a veterinarian, her desire to heal the sick and rescue the dying was stirring.

But Lucia was not that stupid. She also knew that resurrection was impossible.

And this was braised meat.

“How much do you want to save?” he asked tentatively.

Lucia: “Save half.”

Xia Li: “…”

She was just craving it.

“Boss, how much is the braised duck?”

◈◈◈

Xia Li bought half a braised duck for Lucia and also weighed a pound of duck feet.

Lucia sat in the car and munched all the way. When she got out of the car, she found her hands were greasy.

“It’s okay, you go upstairs first, I’ll carry the rest of the things.”

Lucia used her dragon tail （（butt）） to bump the car door, and the door closed with a ‘pa’.

She stood in front of the car trunk, looked at the things inside, and judged that Xia Li definitely couldn’t carry them all by himself.

“Give me two minutes!”

As she said that, her small hand skillfully reached into Xia Li’s trouser pocket.

Xia Li was carrying a bag of cat food in one hand and dodged sideways.

The stinky dragon’s hands were oily, and she knew her hands were dirty and shouldn’t be touched randomly, but when she touched him, she didn’t care at all.

And, where are you reaching!

“…The keys are on the other side!”

“Oh!”

Lucia successfully took out the house key and rushed home at an extremely fast speed. In less than two minutes, she ran down again like a little pony walking with the wind.

As she ran, she shook the water droplets from her dragon claws.

“I’m here!”

Lucia came to help, holding Mianhua with her washed dragon claws, and carrying a box of cat litter on her shoulder with the other hand.

The box of cat litter said ‘Net weight 40 jin’, and Lucia carried it on her shoulder as if it were nothing.

“…”

With the evil dragon’s hard work, Xia Li was much more relaxed, carrying two bags of goods on his wrist and walking upstairs.

On the way up to the third floor, he happened to run into Zhao Qin going out to throw out the garbage.

Xia Li greeted her as usual. Zhao Qin saw the big cardboard box Lucia was carrying on her small shoulders, and the expression on her face was both surprised and distressed.

She turned around and sent a message to her best friend, Fang Xia: Your daughter-in-law is so capable, she can carry 40 jin of sand upstairs by herself.

She didn’t forget to attach a picture of her back.

As soon as Xia Li got home, he was bombarded with messages from Fang Xia.

She knew her son’s character.

With Xiao Lu’s family background, she must have done a lot of farm work when she was a child, so she was very diligent on weekdays.

And Xia Li, a city youth who would rather sit than stand and lie down than sit, had already left a stereotype in Fang Xia’s eyes, so she always felt that this kid would leave the dirty and tiring work to the little girl from the countryside.

It wasn’t that he was deliberately bullying her, but that he let her diligently do the housework while he himself was sprawled out on the sofa like a lazybones.

Fang Xia could imagine the scene just by thinking about it.

Summer Dawn: Mom, am I that kind of person???

Mrs. Fang: For something that heavy, you could just make two trips!

Summer Dawn: I was going to make two trips, but Xiao Lu felt sorry for me, she wouldn’t let me run.

◈◈◈

Mrs. Fang: Be more efficient with your work. She feels sorry for you, but you should also feel sorry for her.

Mrs. Fang: An 80-jin girl, carrying 40 jin of sand!

Xia Li had just set up the cat bed and had just sat down when he saw these messages from Fang Xia.

He pouted, dissatisfied with his mother’s misunderstanding of him.

They hadn’t even met yet, and his own mother’s elbow was already bent 180 degrees!

“Lucia, come here, come here.”

Xia Li beckoned to the little dragon squatting on the floor.

Lucia was putting Mianhua into the cat bed, and came over after patting her little hands.

Xia Li had agreed to let her adopt Mianhua today, and she had been in a good mood all day. At this moment, she was also very happy, her little face was rosy, and the corners of her mouth were pursed into the sweet smile unique to the evil dragon.

“What should I do if a human bullies me?” Xia Li suddenly said.

Lucia was startled, and the smile on her face disappeared.

She rolled up her sleeves like Xia Li used to, in a state of readiness for battle.

“Then I’ll attack him!” the evil dragon said, revealing her fair arms.

“But it’s a great human.” Xia Li emphasized.

“How great?”

Lucia wasn’t scared at all.

No matter how great the human was, with two punches from her, they would still fall to the ground.

Xia Li paused for a moment before saying, “My mom.”

“…”

Lucia’s small face fell silent again.

She silently stood up from the sofa and walked to the cat bed next to the sofa to continue rubbing little Mianhua’s head.

This time Xia Li was also silent.

No, what did this dragon mean?

“You’re not even going to say anything?”

“Say…what?” Lucia picked up Mianhua and squeezed its little paws.

“So what are you going to say?”

“I surrender!”

Xia Li: “…”

Xia Li’s expression was complicated as he walked over and confiscated Mianhua from her.

“You can’t surrender, you have to be on my side, you know?”

“Mmm… I know!”

Xia Li’s gentle words were met with a very perfunctory nod from the evil dragon.

The hero’s mother was the only existence in the world who could suppress the hero, and the relationship between her and the hero was the most reliable family relationship in the human emotional structure.

Although Lucia had never met her, she already regarded her as a teammate.

The evil dragon had lived in modern society for a while now, and she had some insight into human social relationships, so she chose to nod and appease Xia Li first.

Lucia was very proud of her handling of the situation.

She walked half a circle around Xia Li and went to touch the sleepy little Mianhua in Xia Li’s arms.

Xia Li was unhappy and turned sideways to prevent her from touching.

The two of them spun around in the living room like a big windmill.

In the end, Xia Li himself got dizzy from spinning and grabbed the dragon claw.

“Record a video for my mom, otherwise she’ll keep saying I’m bullying you.”

“Record what?” The evil dragon blinked her eyes.

“You sit on the sofa and watch TV, and then I take the mop and mop the floor,” Xia Li had already come up with a script in his mind, “When I mop to your feet, you step on my mop and urge me to go to the kitchen to wash the dishes.”

“Oh…”

Lucia reluctantly nodded.

Why did it sound so strange?

Was it a bit like the kind of M that the Bilibili barrage talked about?

“Forget it.”

Xia Li felt that this script was too fake and definitely wouldn’t pass Fang Xia’s scrutiny.

“Let’s do something exciting.”

Xia Li hooked his finger at the little dragon.

Although she knew the hero was up to no good, Lucia was driven by curiosity and leaned her head over.

Then, a burst of moist heat blew on her face.

Xia Li held Mianhua with one hand and the evil dragon’s waist with the other.

Moist lips covered hers.

Lucia clearly felt a slippery little snake break into her territory and sweep across it at an extremely fast speed.

“Mmm…”

Xia Li touched his lips and smacked them with a smile.

Mmm, this time it was braised duck flavored.

Although the kissing technique was still as clumsy as ever, it was still a fatal blow to the evil dragon.

Lucia’s little face was as red as a delicate flower petal, and the whole dragon was so shy that she froze in place.

Then she remembered that the goldfish in the kitchen hadn’t been fed yet, so she pretended to be busy feeding the goldfish.

“Wait, we haven’t recorded the video yet.” Xia Li reached out and pulled her back.

He turned on the recording function of his phone, and Lucia was holding a kitten in her arms.

In the video, she lifted Mianhua up, shyly holding it above her head, her flushed little face was extremely embarrassed, and she didn’t dare to look at the camera.

“Au-Auntie… Xia Li bought me a kitty…”

“It’s very cute, I like it very much.”

“I-I also like Xia Li very much…”

“Xia Li is very good to me, Auntie doesn’t have to worry…”

After recording the video, Xia Li admired it, the corners of his mouth almost reaching his ears.

He sent the video out.

The effect was perfect.
