After The Soft And Cute Beauty Marries The Wolf King - Chapter 19

The two said they were taking Fufu out for a walk, but Fufu, a rabbit, just sat on Ateus’s back, showing no intention of getting down to run around.

 

During the outing, Lang Sa made mischief several times, poking Fufu’s buttocks with his fingers to push it down. It wasn’t until Xie Zhiqing gave him a push on the back that he stopped.

 

The two walked along with their two animals, chatting and laughing.

 

When leaving with Lang Sa, Xie Zhiqing could clearly feel the majesty of this Wolf King by his side. When he went out alone, many little wolf cubs would come up to greet him, but with Lang Sa around, hardly anyone dared to approach.

 

Xie Zhiqing poked Lang Sa’s waist and said, “Are you usually too fierce?”

 

Lang Sa clicked his tongue and said, “Shouldn’t they fear me?”

 

Xie Zhiqing smiled and said, “Too fierce, Lang Sa!”

 

As they talked, a young wolf brother came walking from a distance.

 

The person stopped several meters away from Lang Sa, his expression very conflicted. He walked back and forth, hesitating for a long time with each step toward Lang Sa.

 

This young wolf’s behavior further confirmed Xie Zhiqing’s words. He couldn’t contain the smile on his face and said, “Lang Sa, look, hahaha! You scared him so much, he doesn’t dare to come over!”

 

Lang Sa frowned and waved at the person, saying, “What’s the matter?”

 

The person nervously took a few steps closer, stood in front of Lang Sa, and greeted both of them, “King of the Wolves, Prince.”

 

“Hmm.” Lang Sa nodded and said, “What’s up? Acting all timid.”

 

“Well, um, the prince’s hat is done…” The person scratched his head and said, “It’ll be finished this afternoon.”

 

“My hat?” Xie Zhiqing pointed to himself, puzzled.

 

“Oh, right.” Lang Sa cleared his throat and explained, “Didn’t I tell you yesterday? We caught a fox this time, and I’m having a hat and shoes made for you.”

 

Lang Sa said this expressionlessly, in a flat tone, without any hint of praise. Xie Zhiqing looked at him, his eyes rolling, feeling a bit mischievous.

 

“Will it be finished this afternoon? Lang Sa only returned last night.” He looked at the young wolf, “You guys weren’t working all night, were you?”

 

The person said, “We’re used to being active at night, it’s not considered working overnight, it’s our normal working hours.”

 

Xie Zhiqing thanked him, “Okay, thank you. Where do you live? I’ll come pick it up in the afternoon, alright?”

 

The person waved his hand repeatedly, “How can we trouble the prince to come in person? What time are you available this afternoon? I’ll deliver it to you.”

 

After arranging a time, the young wolf bid farewell and left—apparently, his repeated hesitation was because he was afraid of encountering their Wolf King when delivering the goods.

 

Feeling inexplicably rejected again, Lang Sa was very angry, “Get lost!”

 

The little wolf brother scampered away in fright.

 

After the person left, Lang Sa remembered something and shouted, “The hat’s done, what about the shoes?!”

 

“Tomorrow, tomorrow!!” The person yelled, his voice trembling.

 

It’s not true that Lang Sa has a bad temper or is difficult to get along with. It’s just that the wolf pack’s hierarchy is strict, and Lang Sa’s abilities truly command respect from everyone. They all genuinely respect him and dare not be too presumptuous in front of him.

 

Lang Sa is like that, and Ateus is too. Despite their fierce appearances, they both have soft cores.

 

Xie Zhiqing chuckled to himself a few times and thought about teasing these two wolves in front of him.

 

He picked up Fufu from Ateus’s back and hugged it to his chest, trotting a few steps ahead of Lang Sa, then turned around and pushed Lang Sa back, happily saying, “Hey, got a new hat!”

 

Lang Sa: “Ah.”

 

“I wonder if it’ll look good.”

 

“Hmm.”

 

“It’s fox fur! It must be very soft! I’m looking forward to it.”

 

“???”

 

“Isn’t it amazing that they can make it in just one night! We should thank them properly later!”

 

“…”

 

Lang Sa stopped in his tracks, narrowed his eyes, and his tone was very dangerous, “Who are you thinking of thanking properly?”

 

Xie Zhiqing pretended to be clueless, “Thank the wolf brothers who helped me rush the work.”

 

Lang Sa: “And who else?”

 

“Oh!” Xie Zhiqing suddenly realized, pointing to Ateus beside him, “And Ateus who helped me run errands!”

 

Lang Sa strode over to Xie Zhiqing, grabbed his face, and angrily said, “Ateus, come here!”

 

“Ah—ouch!” Xie Zhiqing laughed and dodged, “How can the king of a clan play around with people outside! It’s not dignified!”

 

Before he could finish his words, Lang Sa fiercely rubbed his head.

 

Fufu jumped out of his arms, his short legs running fast, with a droopy face, running to Ateus’s side.

 

Ateus also had a speechless expression, following beside Fufu, walking in front of the two masters.

 

After finally escaping from Lang Sa’s clutches, Xie Zhiqing made a face at Lang Sa and said, “You said it yourself before, you don’t need to thank you for everything. Why are you asking for thanks again now? Lang Sa, you’re not keeping your word.”

 

“…” Lang Sa couldn’t argue with that.

 

He stared at Xie Zhiqing for a while before making a “tsk” sound and said, “Right! It’s just a small favor, no need to thank me!”

 

Xie Zhiqing nodded vigorously.

 

Lang Sa was completely speechless.

 

He exploded in anger, grabbed Xie Zhiqing’s shoulder, and shook him vigorously, “You’re going too far!”

 

Xie Zhiqing grinned and begged loudly, “Help, help!”

 

His eyes were shining brightly, the smile overflowing from his eyes adding a touch of brilliance to the black and white world in Lang Sa’s eyes.

 

The light was named Xie Zhiqing.

 

Lang Sa cleared his throat and, as naturally as possible, took Xie Zhiqing’s hand, saying, “You don’t seem to have any intention of begging for mercy.”

 

Whether it was unnoticed or he didn’t want to refuse, Xie Zhiqing obediently let Lang Sa grab his hands, their fingers intertwined, unconsciously locking them together.

Time seemed to pass especially quickly with Lang Sa’s company, and in the blink of an eye, the sky had darkened.

 

After finishing washing up, Xie Zhiqing put on the fox fur hat that the young wolf brother had brought him, admiring himself in the mirror from side to side, reluctant to take it off.

 

The thick fox fur was soft and shiny under the dim light of the oil lamp.

 

Xie Zhiqing always liked these furry things—hats, clothes, gloves—he wished he could wrap himself in fur from head to toe.

 

It suited him perfectly.

 

The thick fox fur covered his head, gently enveloping his ears. The light-colored fur almost blended with his soft long hair, making his cheeks look even smaller and cuter.

 

Xie Zhiqing shook his head, satisfied, watching the layers of fur gently rolling with his movements.

 

Lang Sa sat on the edge of the bed, his hands resting on his knees, watching him, and said, “If you like it, I’ll make you something else next time.”

 

Xie Zhiqing happily agreed.

 

He took off the new hat from his head, sat down next to Lang Sa, grabbed a tuft of fur from the hat, and said, “This hat is mostly gray and white— you can see that, right? Only the tail part is blue. But the blue isn’t very obvious, so overall, it just looks a bit dark at the tail.”

 

He shook the hat and continued, “So you see, I can distinguish colors, but with this thing, there probably isn’t much difference between how I see it and how you see it.”

 

Oh, after going around in circles, it turns out he was waiting for this.

 

Lang Sa tapped his forehead and said, “So that’s what you meant. We wolves are all colorblind, we’re used to it—why does it matter?”

 

Xie Zhiqing said, “It doesn’t matter, I just suddenly thought of it and wanted to share it with you.”

 

He then pointed to the small oil lamp on the table in the distance and said, “The flame is yellow and red, sometimes orange-red. The vest I wore today is green.”

 

Lang Sa pinched his cheek and smiled, “I see. Well—”

 

He applied a little pressure with his hand, and Xie Zhiqing’s skin, being thin, immediately showed a faint handprint on his cheek.

 

Lang Sa rubbed it with his fingertip, implying something as he said, “That’s a bit regrettable.”

 

Xie Zhiqing: “?”

 

“Alright, alright, let’s go to bed.” Lang Sa pinched the area again, making the faint mark a bit deeper. “Hurry up and go to sleep!”

 

He couldn’t let the little prince know that he was regretting not seeing him blush, otherwise, knowing Xie Zhiqing’s temperament, he would probably feel shy again.

 

But thinking about this, Lang Sa hesitated a bit.

 

After all, he had just grasped another way to make Xie Zhiqing blush with his wicked thoughts…

 

While Lang Sa was thinking about his malicious intentions on one side, on the other side, Xie Zhiqing was also pondering his own thoughts.

 

When it came to sleeping, Xie Zhiqing began to feel uneasy again.

 

…The events of last night flooded into Xie Zhiqing’s mind all at once.

 

Xie Zhiqing awkwardly slipped under the covers, carefully tucking in the corners, lying stiff as a board.

 

He hesitated internally whether he should suggest that Lang Sa sleep beside him, but he couldn’t convince himself to say it. Xie Zhiqing’s gaze drifted unconsciously, stealing glances at Lang Sa—

 

Their eyes met.

 

“Why are you peeking at me?” Lang Sa asked.

 

Xie Zhiqing: “!!!”

 

“I wasn’t peeking at you…” Xie Zhiqing weakly replied.

 

Lang Sa leaned in and kissed his nose, his eyes dark. He touched Xie Zhiqing’s chin and spoke in a low voice.

 

“Tonight, I…” Lang Sa touched his hair, saying, “It’s been two months, it should be possible…”

 

Xie Zhiqing felt like his head was spinning. He looked away from Lang Sa, unable to meet his gaze, and stammered, “It’s always been possible… we’re married, we’re husband and wife.”

 

He closed his eyes, as if making a big decision, and shifted to make space, leaving the edge of the covers.

 

This small movement drained Xie Zhiqing of all his embarrassment, and he lay still, silent.

 

The oil lamp went out.

 

The room suddenly darkened, and Xie Zhiqing instinctively opened his eyes—

 

He was greeted by Lang Sa’s warm kiss.

 

Xie Zhiqing held his breath. He couldn’t see the person in front of him clearly, but he could feel the burning breath moving from his eyes to his lips, enveloping him warmly.

 

Soon, his chin was captured again, and Lang Sa’s lips finally landed on his.

 

Lang Sa rubbed his chin with his fingertips, coaxing him to part his lips and accept his kiss.

 

The obstructive clothing was discarded one by one, and Lang Sa slipped into the covers, finally embracing his little prince.

 

The warmth of the quilt was comforting, but not as warm as the Wolf King’s body temperature. Xie Zhiqing trembled all over, his lips tingling. He reached out and wrapped his arms around Lang Sa’s neck, almost clinging to him.

 

The kiss wasn’t forceful, but it was enough to make Xie Zhiqing unable to resist. Lang Sa held onto his lips, his teeth grazing gently, the slight pain adding to the pleasure, causing him to tense up, even curling his toes.
