Chapter 275: The Girls Who Understand in a Second——Empress Qingyue

“Senior’s chicken… is so delicious.”

The sound resonated within the wooden house, yet the air seemed to freeze.

For the atmosphere was awkward not just because of this sentence.

At this moment, Xiang Ying’s mouth was stained with thick, white cheese. Lost in the deliciousness of the fried chicken, her eyes wore a hazy, intoxicated look; even her cheeks were slightly flushed.

Such a scene, if it were anyone else, would likely lead to the same misunderstanding.

“I told you my chicken was delicious, right?”

Nie Chen finished washing his hands, but as he looked up, he saw Chu Qingyue, who had just entered the door, and the somewhat intoxicated Xiang Ying beside her.

“What the…”

This situation was something Nie Chen had never expected.

“Nie Chen, do you have anything to say?”

A seductive yet chilling smile played on Chu Qingyue’s lips.

Though ashamed to admit it, she had indeed wondered before, but now…

A subtle killing intent seemed to drift in the once warm air.

“Wife, listen to my explanation!”

Nie Chen immediately took a panicked step back.

“Do you think I will believe you? If you don’t have a reasonable explanation today, I will definitely not let you off!”

“Then at least listen to my explanation!”

“I won’t listen!”

“?”

“Ah~”

A sorrowful cry instantly echoed through the wooden house.

“The Empress is so scary.”

“The Empress is so bold.”

“…”

The cruel scene unfolding before their eyes sent a chill down the spines of the Jiao Dragon Clan women, filling them with fear.

No wonder the Empress had been single for so many years.

Fortunately, it was Nie Chen. If it were anyone else, they would probably not be able to withstand it!

…

After a long while, with blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, Nie Chen finally managed to stabilize the situation.

Fortunately, the aroma of fried chicken still lingered in the room, and there were no other Jiao Dragon Clan women to bear witness. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to clear his name even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

“You’re saying that the white stuff on her mouth is some strange food called cheese?”

Gazing intently at Nie Chen, Chu Qingyue appeared somewhat skeptical.

“Of course, wife, try it.”

Nie Chen took out the cheese, heated it by the fire, and handed it to Chu Qingyue.

Looking at the strangely colored liquid, Chu Qingyue hesitated for a long time before finally deciding to give it a try.

Placing it in her mouth, this food called cheese tasted sweet and salty.

It wasn’t exactly delicious, but it did have an alluring flavor.

Especially that strange stringy texture…

Suddenly, Chu Qingyue moved with graceful steps and stopped before Xiang Ying.

She then extended her tongue and, with lightning speed, licked the white substance on Xiang Ying’s mouth.

“Empress, what are you doing!”

Xiang Ying was startled. After reacting, she hurriedly stepped back, her pretty face flushed crimson.

“Yes, it is indeed this taste.”

Only then did Chu Qingyue finally nod, believing Nie Chen’s explanation.

“Hmph ╭(╯^╰)╮! This Empress was startled. This time, it was my misjudgment. I’ll forgive you for now.”

Chu Qingyue snorted softly and turned her head away with a slightly resentful pout.

“The question is, wife, what did you think that white stuff was?”

Just then, Nie Chen suddenly asked.

“I initially thought it was…”

Subconsciously speaking halfway, Chu Qingyue abruptly stopped.

Panic flashed in her eyes. Her cold gaze darted around, attempting to explain:

“This Empress originally thought it was… was…”

But no matter what, she couldn’t think of a substitute.

After all, things like milk didn’t exist in the Lanchuan Continent.

As for her true thoughts…

How could she say such shameful words!

“Hateful! Come to this Empress’s bedchamber tonight. The major crime can be forgiven, but the minor one cannot escape!”

At this moment, Chu Qingyue’s snow-like skin was mostly dyed with a rosy hue.

As if forcing herself to maintain her imperial dignity, she tugged at Nie Chen’s collar before fleeing as if to escape.

“Wife, how do you plan to punish me?”

Nie Chen asked, pretending to be afraid.

“On top.”

With a slight shy tremble, Chu Qingyue uttered only these two words.

Then, her figure flickered and vanished out the door in an instant.

“On top…”

“Wow, the Empress is so bold…”

The true meaning of this sentence naturally couldn’t escape these quick-witted Jiao Dragon Clan girls.

Looking at each other, recalling the Empress’s bold words, they couldn’t help but feel their faces flush slightly.

“This is our Jiao Dragon Clan’s Great Replenishing Pill, Senior. Take it.”

“Although its effect is only comparable to a fourth-grade pill, it’s better than nothing.”

“I also have a precious spirit grass passed down from my father. I originally planned to give it to my future husband.”

“You can have it. After all… that’s the Empress.”

“This Strengthening Sinews and Bones Pill is cheap, but I hope Senior won’t dislike it.”

After Chu Qingyue left.

It was unclear who started it, but the Jiao Dragon Clan women took out their long-cherished treasures one after another and sincerely tried to get Nie Chen to accept them.

Their gazes focused on Nie Chen’s lower back, their eyes filled with tears of heartache.

“I’m truly not unworthy!”

Nie Chen suddenly exclaimed.

But such a defense seemed pale and weak.

After all, to be able to face the dignified Empress Qingyue without flinching, who in the world could be considered unworthy?

Moreover, the Empress was planning to be on top…

One after another, extremely devout gazes converged on him.

Looking at those concerned eyes filled with tears.

Nie Chen could only choose to live up to their kindness, sighing as he accepted the gifts.

At this moment, Nie Chen once again realized how important it was to quickly improve to the Great Emperor Realm.

If he didn’t hurry up and break through to the Great Emperor Realm, he feared that soon, the topic of “Nie Chen’s unworthiness” would spread throughout the entire Lanchuan Continent.

“Why do I feel that Senior Nie Chen’s insight and strength have increased again?”

“It seems like it…”

“Senior, come on, you can do it!”

Led by Xiang Yang, the Jiao Dragon Clan women clenched their fists, their eyes filled with encouragement for Nie Chen.

Nie Chen: “…”

Sighing, he no longer knew what to say to these Jiao Dragon Clan women with complex knowledge but simple minds.

“So fragrant, so fragrant.”

Just then, Ao Lan, who had been sleeping for a long time, finally made a sound.

Her petite body trembled slightly, but she didn’t open her eyes, as if she was in a half-asleep, sleepwalking state.

Even in her sleepwalking state, Ao Lan’s nose twitched constantly, as if she smelled the aroma of fried chicken in the room.

“Slurp, I really want to eat it, I want a bite.”

Ao Lan raised her arm with her eyes closed, still sleepwalking. It was a purely instinctive action.

She grabbed the fried chicken on the table beside her and stuffed it into her mouth.

“Crunch, crunch, mmm~ so delicious.”

Swallowing a mouthful of crispy fried chicken, Ao Lan murmured in her sleep.

All of this was done in her sleep, entirely out of instinct.

Nie Chen: “…”

At this moment, in this situation.

He realized that he could only use one phrase to describe it—as expected of you.
