CHAPTER 164: CHAPTER 154: WHY IS FENG QIWU SO TIRELESS?

Upon hearing Feng Qiwu’s words, Bai Susu’s heart couldn’t help but race.

"Courtship dance?"

Rounding up, doesn’t that mean Feng Qiwu is courting her?

At this thought, an involuntary silly smile appeared on Bai Susu’s face.

Hehe.

At this moment, Feng Qiwu nodded, then somewhat nervously asked, "Do you like it?"

Honestly, the merfolk clan’s courtship dance is beautiful, but it’s a bit too delicate. He’s worried it might affect his tall, strong, masculine image in Susu’s heart.

Bai Susu immediately nodded frantically, "Like it, of course, I like it."

Who wouldn’t love a handsome guy, awoo!

Seeing Bai Susu’s eyes sparkling with excitement, Feng Qiwu couldn’t help but lightly cough.

Okay, maybe he asked a pointless question?

The way she looked was like she was about to drool.

Perhaps when she said to try it now, she genuinely couldn’t wait for it to happen.

Should he not hold back?

Yet this thought was quickly suppressed again.

He then said to Bai Susu in a hoarse voice, "As long as you like it."

He didn’t waste his efforts in trying to win her heart after all.

"Why did you suddenly think of doing this dance? Are you trying to make up for the proposal ceremony?" Bai Susu couldn’t help but ask at this time.

Hearing this, Feng Qiwu was inwardly moved.

"Proposal?"

Was it called a proposal in the world she used to live in?

He soon nodded and said, "Yeah, previously, I didn’t discuss with you, and just had Father grant us marriage in public, so now I must ask you, Susu, are you willing to marry me?"

Bai Susu was stunned for a moment.

Then she quickly nodded, "Of course, I am."

Although he knew Bai Susu wouldn’t give him a negative answer, when he heard her firmly say "willing," Feng Qiwu couldn’t help but have his heart racing.

The next second, he couldn’t hold back anymore, pressing Bai Susu against the smooth and wet pool wall, feverishly seizing the sweetness of her lips like a storm.

At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind.

Even if Susu were to stab him now and take his life, he would willingly not resist and give his life to her.

Only she, only she in this world, could drive him so crazy, moving all his emotions.

...

By the time Bai Susu was carried out of the hot spring pool by Feng Qiwu and onto the shore, she was as limp as a salted fish, too weak to even wiggle a finger.

She really couldn’t understand how Feng Qiwu could be so tireless when he got excited.

Why not just get real with it!

┭┮﹏┭┮

Once ashore, Feng Qiwu quickly picked up a soft blanket from the rack and tightly wrapped Bai Susu’s body.

Seeing her face flushed yet utterly exhausted, he couldn’t help but curve his lips and say, "Sleep if you’re tired now."

"Mmm..." Bai Susu responded lowly, then nestled into Feng Qiwu’s arms and quickly fell asleep.

At that moment, holding Bai Susu, Feng Qiwu strode towards the secret door behind the screen, then gently kicked open the secret door to his bedchamber.

Unlike the elegant and quaint room arranged by Bai Susu, Feng Qiwu’s bedchamber was extremely simple, with only a very large bed, a table, and a set of wardrobe in the spacious room, exuding a cold and hard feeling.

There’s nothing else, everything in the room was clearly visible at a glance.

When Feng Qiwu came in holding Bai Susu, Xiao Quanzi immediately lowered his voice nervously and asked, "Your Highness, the charcoal fire has been lit, do you need the maids to come in to dry the hair for you and the Crown Princess Consort?"

"No need, I’ll do it myself." Feng Qiwu directly refused.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Quanzi was shocked in his heart, his eyes shrinking instinctively.

Personally drying the Crown Princess Consort’s hair?

Oh my god!

The Crown Prince likes the Crown Princess Consort so much he won’t let others handle even the serving tasks?

He had previously underestimated the importance of the Crown Princess Consort to His Highness.

Seeing Xiao Quanzi’s face full of surprise, Feng Qiwu gave him a disdainful look, then threw the inspection ball to Xiao Quanzi.

Although it looks only the size of a basketball, the inspection ball weighs hundreds of pounds.

Xiao Quanzi was startled when Feng Qiwu suddenly tossed something towards him, and hurriedly stretched out his hands to catch it.

He didn’t expect this seemingly small thing to be so heavy in his hands, almost dropping the inspection ball.

When he saw what he held, Xiao Quanzi immediately looked eagerly at Feng Qiwu.

When His Highness was still in the hot spring pool, he had heard Ling Han and Ling Xiao discussing something about spirit roots, but he was busy checking whether there was a traitor in the Eastern Palace, so he missed it.

When he heard Ling Han and the others say that having a spirit root meant one might cultivate immortality, he was envious to death.

Unexpectedly, His Highness now handed him the inspection ball.

Just then, a red light emitted from the inspection ball in Xiao Quanzi’s hands.

Feng Qiwu glanced at Xiao Quanzi and coldly snorted, "You have decent aptitude, what are you still standing there for? Waiting for me to kick you out? Remember to test everyone in the Seven Stars Tower for spirit roots later."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Quanzi was overjoyed and said, "I’ll get going now!"

Hehe, His Highness hadn’t forgotten him and even entrusted such an important task to him!

Then he happily left quickly, holding the inspection ball.

...

After Xiao Quanzi left, Feng Qiwu slightly narrowed his eyes.

The people around him were actually selected from among abandoned orphans, and some were sold by their families.

But even he hadn’t expected that those gathered around him had extraordinary spirit roots.

Once the star power is fully restored, the world’s rules and forces will undoubtedly be reshuffled, and these people will surely stand out, showing their strong side.

By then, cases of ambition and unwillingness to be subordinate will unavoidably arise.

However, if they think they can betray him, Feng Qiwu, and establish themselves after they can cultivate.

Hmph!

He will make sure they know the fate of betrayers.

Of course, he had the power to suppress them before, and he could still do so in the future.

Thinking of this, Feng Qiwu lowered his head to glance at Bai Susu’s peaceful sleeping face and then cast aside these thoughts, walking toward the fire basin.

He took Bai Susu’s wet hair in his hands, slowly drying it, then tied their long hair together in a knot, smiling as he played with it.

After their hair was dried, Feng Qiwu carried Bai Susu to his wide, carved bed.
