The Sweet Life of Superstar and His Goddess Wife-Chapter 578: Acting (Part Four)

Mu Qiuniang wore a faint smile at the corner of her mouth, but her heart sank.

Once again, she confirmed that this man must be hiding something from her.

She wasn’t a fool, just someone who didn’t like to worry too much. Some things, if you can let them go, just let them go.

However, when it came to his matters, how could she not care?

Although Mu Mingyu had also looked into his recent affairs, and indeed he seemed to be quite busy filming a movie.

But vaguely, she always had a feeling of unease.

One can predict everything except oneself. She could foresee the fate of many, yet couldn’t predict her own.

Even Jiang Nuo’s future had become so shrouded in mystery that she couldn’t see it clearly at all.

A Nuo...

What exactly are you hiding from me?

On the surface, Mu Qiuniang still acted as if she knew nothing, playing along with his pretense.

Since he didn’t want her to know, she would pretend not to. Eventually, everything would come to light.

"What do you want to eat this morning?" Mu Qiuniang asked.

"As long as it’s made by you, I’ll love it."

"Then how about I boil a pot of plain water for you? Your breakfast will be plain water today?"

"Sure, as long as you’re willing." Jiang Nuo held her and snuggled.

"Stop snuggling, get up quickly, I’ll go make something to eat."

"But I want a hug."

"Didn’t you hug me all night last night? Isn’t that enough?"

"Never enough, even if I hugged you for a lifetime, it wouldn’t be enough."

After lazing in bed for a while, Jiang Nuo finally let Mu Qiuniang get up to make breakfast.

He also climbed out of bed: "Wife, I’ll go pick some flowers for you."

"Alright."

Leaving the house, Jiang Nuo secretly left Rose Manor to find Mr. Black Dragon.

[Coming to see the Destructive one again?] Mr. Black Dragon lazily lifted his gigantic head.

Recently, the world was filled with more Spiritual Energy, allowing its Dragon Soul to recover more quickly.

At this rate, it should fully recover before Jiang Nuo disappears. That means it can then end the "Equal Contract" with him and take the little Spiritual Essence away.

After all, she was its future bride, it had to keep a good eye on her.

"Hmm!" Jiang Nuo gently nodded.

[No change in size, but its feathers already have signs of turning black, your time is running out.] Mr. Black Dragon’s tone carried a hint of regret.

Actually, Jiang Nuo was quite a decent human, and signing an equal contract with him gave it considerable freedom.

Most of the time, this guy didn’t really need it, preferring to handle his own matters, and he certainly loved sticking to his wife, leaving no room for its involvement.

Unfortunately, he’s about to disappear, and their contract is nearing its end.

"Where is it?"

[Right here.] Mr. Black Dragon lifted its claw, revealing a tiny bird the size of a palm sleeping soundly in its grip.

The previously bright red feathers, as Mr. Black Dragon mentioned, had blackened tips, surrounded by a circle of black mist.

Jiang Nuo’s heart tightened as he saw this.

[This little one is truly a hassle, abandoning its own tree to come sleep near me, causing my little Spiritual Essence to avoid me from afar.] Mr. Black Dragon sighed, yearning even more to accompany its own little Spiritual Essence better.

"Has it been sleeping this whole time?"

[What else would it do? It hasn’t matured yet; aside from sleeping, what else can it do? For Demon Beasts like us, sleeping is not just resting, but also the best way to heal or grow.]

"What if I wake it up, will it hinder its growth?"

[Uh! I suggest you don’t say that, Jiang Nuo, its temperament is fiery, and it has a serious case of waking rage. If you don’t want to get into a massive fight, it’s best not to wake it.]

"You seem quite experienced?"

[In my inherited memories, there’s a Black Dragon who loved fighting. Unable to find an opponent, it often provoked the Destructive Phoenix, sparring time and again for days and nights, turning everything upside down.]

Jiang Nuo: "..."

Fighting for days and nights, even if Mu Qiuniang doesn’t know at first, she’ll figure it out later.

Once she sees it, how could she not understand what’s happening?

"Keep an eye on it, Mu Qiuniang and I will be staying around this time for a while."

[Understood, wouldn’t want to disturb you two as a couple. I sensed you two as soon as you entered.] With a contract with Jiang Nuo, unless he purposely avoided it, it could sense most of what he did.

This guy’s clinginess to his wife was something it didn’t want to harm its eyes with; after all, it’s still a single dragon.

Sigh... Being a single dragon is truly unbearable.

Just as Mu Qiuniang finished making breakfast, Jiang Nuo appeared behind her with a huge bouquet of roses.

"Happy New Year, honey!" Jiang Nuo handed over the flowers with a bright smile.

"Thank you! Happy New Year!" Mu Qiuniang accepted them.

"Hey, wait a second, honey, where’s my New Year’s kiss?" Jiang Nuo pointed to his face.

Mu Qiuniang sighed with a bit of exasperation and gave him a quick kiss.

"And the good morning kiss." Jiang Nuo wasn’t about to let her off just yet, continuing to point at his face.

"You’re quite the handful." Mu Qiuniang remarked fondly, giving him another kiss.

"Hehehehe... Honey, these are life’s little pleasures!" he said, then held her face to kiss her both left and right, "Here’s the New Year’s kiss, and here’s the good morning kiss."

Thinking it was over, Mu Qiuniang turned to arrange the flowers. However, she was surprised when he didn’t immediately let go: "And this... is the kiss of love."

"Smooch——"

A sound landed on her red lips.

Mu Qiuniang was filled with indulgent exasperation: "Can I go arrange the flowers now?"

"Of course, this bouquet is my ’Love Flower,’" Jiang Nuo boasted, "Honey, did you notice these flowers are especially beautiful, especially fresh, and especially fragrant? I specially watered them with Spiritual Spring."

"In this spiritual soil, you’re worried it won’t grow well?" Mu Qiuniang summoned a vase, speaking while arranging the flowers.

"Hehehehe... I wanted them to bloom even more beautifully, I prepared them for you, shouldn’t settle for ordinary care."

"Go ahead, if you accidentally nurture a Flower Demon, then what will you do?"

"Wouldn’t that be great? Our Rose Manor needs a Flower Slave, it can take care of the flowers, watch the house, and serve you."

"Should I start waiting for that now then?"

"Of course, you can start waiting now, maybe tomorrow a Flower Demon will appear. Hehehehe... And, honey, it’ll be your favorite Rose Flower Demon~"

"Aren’t you afraid I might like it more than you?"

"How could that be? I’m its creator, honey, you’re clever and smart, of course, you’d like me more. Because if you like me, you can have countless Flower Demons; if you like it, you might end up with none." Jiang Nuo earnestly said, then couldn’t help but chuckle, "Honey, does my portrayal of a bossy manor owner seem convincing?"
