TDCM Chapter 303: Beyond Familial And Romantic Love

(There was one paragraph that was kind of painful to translate. And the pain doesn’t stop here. I didn’t sign up for this someone save meee.)

That faint kind of charm that brought with it a hint of enchanting fragrance made Ye Chenyuan restless.

Yuan Chu didn’t notice anything wrong with Ye Chenyuan and even comforted him.

“Don’t worry, he’s no better off than me so you don’t have to avenge me. He’s a fearless troublemaker, it’s better that we don’t make a fuss over this……”

Ye Chenyuan raised a brow, “You didn’t tell me because you were worried that I’d go look for him?”

Yuan Chu nodded her head. To her surprise, in the next second, Ye Chenyuan suddenly pulled her into his embrace. She looked up flusteredly, only to see that Ye Chenyuan’s profound eyes were locked on her.

“He hugged you?”

Yuan Chu laughed awkwardly, “He did press me down for a little……”

Her reply made Ye Chenyuan feel even more irritated and he suddenly had the urge to have her to himself. That way, no one will come and snatch her from him anymore.

However, he still ended up suppressing that thought. Feeling bitter, he spun Yuan Chu around by her shoulders.

Yuan Chu was confused so she simply followed along.

“Master, I’ll assist you in taking a bath.”

Yuan Chu was shocked, “No need! I can do it myself……”

“It’s alright. Ever since master was young, which part of master have I not seen before?”

His words were definitely exaggerated, but Yuan Chu didn’t give it much thought because she was too nervous.

Then, the muddle-headed Yuan Chu was washed by him……

Of course, she was still wearing her undergarments and pants, but the entire process was still very shameful.

When Yuan Chu’s bath was over, she was still in a daze.

That night, Ye Chenyuan went out to hunt while the little White Dragon stayed behind to accompany Yuan Chu. Yuan Chu sat beside the open fire absent-mindedly.

Beside her, the little White Dragon had an idea and he scooted over to ask, “Mother Chu Chu, what are you thinking about?”

Yuan Chu froze. Seeing that there was no one else around, she covered her face and said softly, “Just ignore me, I’m thinking about……about adult matters.” The more she thought about it, the more she thought that something was strange, especially how Ye Chenyuan had insisted on helping her bathe. His gaze had caused her entire body to turn red and she also felt a strange fear. What’s wrong with her? Didn’t she have the buddha-hand heart restraining spell on her heart?

She definitely won’t be moved by any desires, but why did she feel like escaping when Ye Chenyuan’s gaze was on her as she took off her clothes?

Yuan Chu felt conflicted the more she thought about it. Beside her, the little White Dragon inched closer, feigning innocence as he asked.

“What adult matter is mother thinking about? I’ve received many Dragon Clan inheritances, perhaps I’ll be able to help you!”

Yuan Chu hadn’t intended to talk to him, but she’d always been someone who couldn’t hold back so she moved closer to the little White Dragon’s ear and said secretively.

“Umm……do you think Little Yuan Yuan likes me?”

In fact, the little White Dragon already knew what this was about. The devil’s own jealousy was to blame, he had actually disregarded everything to help Little Chu Chu bathe.

With this, even if Little Chu Chu had that spell on her, she would’ve realised that something was wrong.

He racked his brains for an idea, “Why is mother asking this? Of course father likes mother, I also like mother!”

Yuan Chu’s face was a little red, “No no, that’s not what I’m talking about!”

In an even lower voice, “It’s……umm, do you think that his ‘like’ is the same as yours?”

After saying this, she felt like she’d become stupid, actually asking a kid something like that.

Unexpectedly, the little White Dragon who was sitting beside her in front of the open fire actually said in a solemn manner.

“I think it’s the same.”

“Eh?”

“Perhaps Mother Chu Chu has forgotten, but I’ve followed the both of you for a long time. The two of you have always been very close and have even unknowingly done things that only lovers would do.”

Yuan Chu gave it some thought, and that really seemed to be the case. In his childhood, when Ye Chenyuan was very close to her, she didn’t pay him much heed because she thought that he was just a child. By the time he grew up, she’d already long gotten used to that kind of closeness. Little White Dragon continued, “Moreover, the two of you trust each other a lot and both want to give the other the best. Usually, there’ll be selfishness even between family members and there’ll be suspicions between husband and wife, but there’s none of that between father and you. This shows that the relationship between you two has already gone beyond the so-called familial love and the love between a male and female, becoming another kind of emotion that’s even stronger.”

Hearing this, Yuan Chu felt that it made a lot of sense. Didn’t both she and Ye Chenyuan want to give the other the best?

Seeing that Yuan Chu had been brought astray by him, the little White Dragon said obediently, “So mother shouldn’t overthink it. You’ve previously helped me to bathe and even helped father with a medicinal bath. Why are you acting so strange after father helped you bathe once?”

Yuan Chu blushed and shot him a glare, “I’m not acting strange! It’s just……the weather is too hot.”

It was at this moment that Ye Chenyuan returned from hunting. In fact, he still had food in his storage space and he’d just gone out to calm himself down.

He had indeed become jealous just now, which was why he’d helped master to clean her body.

But it was only after removing her clothes that he realised that he’d overestimated his self-control. Back then, she had hugged her chest as she stood in the water and looked at him timidly……

The light green coloured dudou blended into the clear water and some wet strands of her long black hair stuck to her snowy-white skin while the rest were floating on the water like water plants.

That scene, he didn’t know how he’d managed to control himself back then.

He had stood behind her throughout it because that was the only way that she wouldn’t be able to see his gaze, that she wouldn’t know how fast his Adam’s apple was bobbing, that she wouldn’t be able to see his reaction.

But she probably felt it, so she’d been really nervous throughout and her skin had even turned a pink colour. Just like a snow-white lotus flower bud, the light pink on the ends of those sharp tips looked very delicious.

That was why he had run out, and it was only after calming down for four hours that he finally regained his calm. In his heart, he really wanted to wait for a little longer. He had already waited for so long and he didn’t mind waiting for her to grow a little older, waiting till they left the divine sword mystic realm. So, he was now sitting beside Yuan Chu in a very well-behaved manner, such that Yuan Chu couldn’t tell that this was the person who had forced her to take off her clothes just now.

Although little White Dragon had tried talking sense into her, Yuan Chu still felt a little awkward. But she then thought of something and smacked her own forehead.

“Oh no! Little Yuan Yuan, don’t busy yourself tonight, let’s eat the game tomorrow. I almost forgot that I’ve got something tasty here.”

Saying this, she took out the ring Weisheng Ji had given her and brought out the mouthwatering meat and soup.

The portion was actually quite large and there was a lot of meat because she’d been busy packing away the food and hadn’t eaten much that night.

Although food stored in interspatial rings will lose some taste, but that’s okay because it’s still very tasty.

Ye Chenyuan looked up, only to see that Yuan Chu had actually prepared food. He knitted his brows.

This fragrance……just from the smell, he could tell that master wasn’t the one who made it. Then was it Weisheng Ji? At the thought of that person who wanted to vie with him for master, he felt upset again and the very fragrant meat seemed to have lost its flavour.
