Ha, Karma! – Chapter 47

A great demon must be different, not following the usual path!

Fu Lianxue attributed Chu Zhaoqui’s situation to karma.

If she hadn’t stabbed her with that sword back then, why would she be so pitiful today?

Karma, it’s all karma.

She did not respond to Chu Zhaoqiu’s expectations.

“No, whatever I do, it’s none of your business.”

She continued to act as she pleased.

Chu Zhaoqiu’s brows furrowed slightly, her eyes reluctant to leave her. “Lianxue…”

She wanted to say something but stopped, finally letting out a soft sigh, full of helplessness.

“Lianxue, don’t you realize that our relationship is different from others…”

Casual, intimate, with no sense of distance, even entangled at the lips and teeth, inseparable.

What enemy would act like this?

Besides hatred, there was clearly something else between them, emotions previously undiscovered.

But Fu Lianxue did not think so.

Her thoughts were simpler.

“I’m a charm demon,” she said coyly, leaning gently in her embrace, her hands caressing her shoulders and neck, her tone both seductive and matter-of-fact. “If I can absorb the fragrance from you, then why shouldn’t I kiss you?”

Without spiritual power, she couldn’t freely perform her magic, so who would refuse a walking, excellent spiritual power supplement?

She certainly wouldn’t.

Her hands rested on Chu Zhaoqiu’s shoulders. “Do you know how fragrant you were when we just kissed?”

She slowly approached her lips, giving them a gentle lick.

“I really like it, especially like it.”

She had to admit that Chu Zhaoqiu in a passionate kiss was especially alluring to her.

The intense fragrance filled with love made her feel burning hot, unable to resist wanting more.

It fascinated her, thus giving birth to the flower scent, which in turn tempted her back.

And the feeling wasn’t bad.

…The feeling of kissing her wasn’t bad either.

Ordinarily upright and composed Chu Zhaoqiu, in that entanglement, appeared fanatical for her; she liked it very much.

But she still didn’t agree to Chu Zhaoqiu’s expectations.

Because she was childish.

Childishly refusing to do what the person in front of her wanted.

Childishly wanting to oppose her, forever opposing her.

Yet, she was both childish and greedy, wanting to oppose and still wanting another chance.

“So what, if I don’t agree, will you stop kissing me?”

Chu Zhaoqiu held her by the waist, looked into her eyes, and said nothing.

She was lost in thought, even forgetting to let go of her.

Fu Lianxue did not like her silence.

The fragrance of flowers on her was incredibly alluring, yet she was rejecting her closeness. How could that be? Did it not imply that her charm was not potent enough?

“Chu Zhaoqui, don’t remain silent. Speak up quickly and say that you also want to kiss me.”

Chu Zhaoqiu snapped back to reality, amused by her childish behavior, and said honestly and compliantly, “I really do want to kiss you…”

When she mentioned kissing, she paused inadvertently, her ears turning a shy red.

The recent unexpected, passionate, intimate kiss lingered vividly in her mind—a sweet surprise that was unforgettable.

Only then did Fu Lianxue smile again, regaining her composure.

That’s more like it.

Now she was a powerful great demon, how could Chu Zhaoqiu resist her allure?

“But.”

Chu Zhaoqiu said “but.”

“I’m a very traditional person, I have only one kissing partner, and I hope my kissing partner also has only me.

“So, Lianxue, if you kiss others, I will be very sad.”

With that, she put on a dejected look.

Fu Lianxue: “…”

She looked genuinely pitiful.

She turned her head away: “If you’re sad, you’re sad. What’s that got to do with me?”

“But if I become sad, heartbroken, disappointed, the fragrance of flowers on me might fade.”

“Didn’t you say I become very fragrant when we kiss, and you like it a lot? If it fades, wouldn’t you miss out on such a delightful scent?”

“Finding someone as fragrant as me again might not be so easy…”

Chu Zhaoqiu smiled, her expression sincere with a hint of cunning.

“Lianxue, what do you think?”

Fu Lianxue: “…”

Damn it, she couldn’t even argue against a single punctuation mark!

“Do you still think I’m that clueless little demon from before?”

Fu Lianxue tried hard to regain her ground.

“Don’t underestimate me. I’m a great celebrity now, with plenty of people outside lining up to adore me!”

Chu Zhaoqiu, hearing this, couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

Did she really have no right to keep her…

Then a phrase fell by her ear:

“But if you want to keep me, that’s up to your own ability.”

Chu Zhaoqiu was taken aback, her eyes suddenly brightening with joy as she looked at the soft-hearted big star.

Fu Lianxue crossed her arms, looking elsewhere: “If your fragrance fades, I’ll go find someone else.”

Chu Zhaoqiu needed her, and she needed Chu Zhaoqiu’s floral scent.

She even needed to rely on Chu Zhaoqui’s affection for her to retaliate against Chu Zhaoqiu.

Both sides got what they needed, so her decision was very correct, absolutely correct!

After she finished speaking, she heard Chu Zhaoqiu say, “Thank you, Lianxue.”

She couldn’t help but turn her head to see the delight and gentle smile in those beautiful eyes.

“From now on, I will also love you well, only you.”

Chu Zhaoqiu held her hand, brought it to her lips, and gave it a kiss, her eyebrows and eyes filled with tenderness as soft as water.

“I promise.”

This intimate gesture and her happy, gentle demeanor were undeniably heartwarming.

Fu Lianxue: “…”

She withdrew her hand.

The days passed peacefully.

In the blink of an eye, July and the summer vacation arrived.

During this time, Zhou City was very peaceful, with not many people coming for help, so apart from cultivating and guiding lost souls, Chu Zhaoqiu would visit Fu Lianxue’s home to act as a flower caretaker.

Under her care, the Blue Star Flower thrived, glowing with a faint blue light at night, which was very beautiful.

Fu Lianxue was always very happy to see this.

When she was happy, she’d kiss her and even gave her the house code.

“When I have work, I won’t be at home in the middle of the day,” Fu Lianxue said, sitting on the sofa. “You can come over and take care of the flowers.”

Chu Zhaoqiu was a bit surprised.

Previously, Fu Lianxue hadn’t been willing to let her come over, but now she’d even given her the code to the front door… Was this a sign of trust?

Fu Lianxue turned to see her sitting silently, then smiled and leaned in, lightly brushing her face with her hand. “I trust you.

“Our Miss Chu is so wealthy. You have everything I have; there’s no way you’d come to my house to steal something, right?”

Just then, Baobao jumped onto the coffee table, looking at them with an adorably clueless expression.

They both turned to look at Baobao.

Then Fu Lianxue turned to Chu Zhaoqiu and said, “The cat is off-limits. You can’t steal my cat!”

This was her precious little darling. If anyone dared to steal it, she would chase them to the ends of the earth and then kill them a thousand times, ten thousand times!

Chu Zhaoqiu couldn’t help but let out a light laugh.

“Don’t worry, I’m not that kind of person.”

“Meow.”

Baobao meowed in confusion, then turned and jumped off the table to play on its own.

Fu Lianxue had bought it new toys recently, which it was thoroughly enjoying.

Chu Zhaoqiu watched the cat wag its tail and leave before shifting her gaze back to the enchanting demon who was so close to her heart.

She smiled with her eyes: “I’m very happy that you’re willing to tell me the code.”

The distance between them was indeed improving.

“However…”

“But what?”

Chu Zhaoqui asked curiously, “If I keep coming to your house, will the paparazzi take photos and cause you trouble?”

Fu Lianxue leaned on her temple, smiling at the corners of her eyes as she said, “And what if they do? What can they say?

“At most, they’ll say you’re my friend and that we have a good relationship.

“Anyway, they can’t capture this.”

Saying this, she gently pinched Chu Zhaoqiu’s chin and planted a kiss on her lips.

So practiced, so natural.

After the kiss, she smiled and said, “Right?”

Chu Zhaoqiu smiled gently and asked, “Are we friends?”

Fu Lianxue replied in a tone of self-evidence, “Who kisses their friends?”

Chu Zhaoqiu said, “Enemies from other families don’t kiss either, do they?”

Fu Lianxue: “…”

She playfully swatted her, thick-skinned as she said, “Why worry about others? Focus on us. Here, enemies do kiss!”

Chu Zhaoqiu couldn’t help but laugh: “Alright, alright, whatever our great celebrity says goes.”

Only then did Fu Lianxue’s expression relax, and she proactively gave her another kiss, as if rewarding her: “That’s a good girl~”

Chu Zhaoqiu found it hard to resist, each time willingly accepting it.

She was completely captivated by her.

“There’s one more thing I need to tell you in advance,” Chu Zhaoqiu said.

Fu Lianxue lifted her chin slightly, signaling her to speak.

Chu Zhaoqiu said, “Summer vacation is here, and my parents’ friend’s daughter is coming to Zhou City to visit. She’ll be staying at our house.”

She turned to look at Fu Lianxue as she spoke.

Before she could finish, Fu Lianxue interrupted her.

“How old is she?”

“Same as Sining, a college sophomore.”

“Wait a minute, does she know you’re a demon hunter?”

“Yes, her family is as well.”

“Oh?”

Fu Lianxue made a sound of interest.

Chu Zhaoqiu: “…”

She knew it.

“So I hope you can promise me to send me a message in advance if you want to visit, okay?”

“Why? Just because she’s visiting, I need to notify you before coming to your house?” Fu Lianxue asked, “Guests are guests. Are you going to treat me differently when she’s there?”

Chu Zhaoqiu chuckled softly: “It’s not about treating differently, just that you and she have different guest styles, so I need to prepare in advance, is that okay?”

Fu Lianxue didn’t get it: “Apart from species, how are we different?”

It’s just the difference between humans and demons!

Chu Zhaoqiu said, “She uses the door.”

Then she turned to look at her, calmly saying, “And you use the window.”

If Fu Lianxue happened to come in through the window and was seen by her parents’ friend’s daughter… she couldn’t imagine how “exciting” that scene would be.

Fu Lianxue: “…”

Chu Zhaoqiu: “Next time, should our Lianxue try using the front door?”

“No way,” Fu Lianxue said proudly, “I’m going through the window!”

A great demon must be different, not following the usual path!

Even if the King of Heaven himself came to Chu Zhaoqiu’s house as a guest, nothing could stop Fu Lianxue from using the window!
