I and My Husband Sleep in a Coffin

s good care of me.”

 

“I now call him Teacher, but…”

 

He clutched the steering wheel fiercely, as though summoning courage.
“But I like him! I, I'm already living with him at his place!” he said loudly after a few seconds.

 

Wang Xiaomie: “……”

 

Wen Fengjin: “……”

 

F*ck me!

 

Wang Xiaomie vigorously turned his head to look at Wen Fengjin, and was a little astonished to see that Wen Fengjin had raised his eyebrows as well.

 

He swallowed his spit and returned his gaze to Bai Yu.
Bai Yu was coy, nervous, scared, and a bit shy, like a big boy who had revealed his romantic love to his family.

 

But that's besides the point!

 

The point is!

 

“How can you be with Yi Yan?! He admitted you are a couple?” Wang Xiaomie's three views were broken[4], and he felt as if his brain had crashed.

 

“He took fantastic care of me after you left.
On that day, he invited me to stay in his home temporarily, and I conveniently — confessed.
I believe he agreed.” Bai Yu's sad face creased, “I know you have a bad relationship with him…
But…”

 

“That isn’t why…” Wang Xiaomie had a headache and interrupted him, “It’s because…”

 

“Xiaomie.”

 

Wang Xiaomie turned around when he heard Wen Fengjin abruptly call him, and found that the Demon Lord's evil smile was overflowing with charm.

 

“It's interesting, isn't it? We'll just remain quiet about their affairs.”

 

Bai Yu had no idea what Wen Fengjin meant.
His face was awfully grateful, thinking he was speaking for himself.

 

But Wang Xiaomie knew.

 

Wen Fengjin's point was that this must be an accident caused by misunderstandings, but Yi Yan was in an antagonistic relationship with them, so why not see a joke if they could?

 

Oh dear…

 

Wang Xiaomie glanced at the bottle of water he drank just now, swallowing the words on the tip of his tongue, and he didn't say anything very clearly in the end, “The thing is, you have to be very careful while looking for a partner.
Everyone has their own preferences…”

 

However, some people begin by choosing what should not be chosen.

 

Bai Yu did not speak, but nodded silently.

 

No one said a word for the rest of the journey, and it seemed awkward to talk about anything after Yi Yan was involved.

 

The trio ultimately returned to the suburban villa area two and a half days later.

 

Wang Xiaomie's expression improved after returning to his own territory, and a smile appeared on his face.
He stretched his stiffened waist after sitting in the truck and said to Bai Yu, “Thanks for your trouble.
Hurry to your room and lie down for a while.
Fengjin and I will also go upstairs to freshen up.”

 

“There's no need.
I'm…going back to Yi Yan's place,” Bai Yu said, waving his hand like a pendulum, frowning and lowering his head to avoid his gaze.

 

“………”

 

When a son grows up, his mother is no longer able to make decisions for him.
Bai Yu bent his head in shame as he heard Wang Xiaomie sigh.
He wished to defect from the organization and run into the arms of the wild man[5].

 

The villa's entrance opened and closed.
Wen Fengjin stood behind Wang Xiaomie, his lips slowly lifting as he glanced at the closed door.

 

“Don't think about it.” Wen Fengjin retracted his gaze.

 

Wang Xiaomie quivered when an ice-cold palm brushed his nape.
That hand pinched his chin and forced him to turn before he could react.

 

“Don't look at it anymore,” Wen Fengjin said in displeasure.
“I'm tired.
Accompany me upstairs to rest in the coffin.”

 

Wang Xiaomie had intended to shove him away, but was stunned when he heard these remarks.
His brows rose and his lips bent the following instant.
“Hehehe, a coffin? You forgot we didn't bring the coffin? Hahaha.”

 

Wen Fengjin: “…”

 

Wang Xiaomie shoved him aside and ran upstairs, laughing wildly.

 

“Simmons[6], here I come! Aroo!”

 

… … …

 

“Did you drug the water?” Yi Yan asked, narrowing his eyes: “Are you sure he drank it?”

 

The first floor of the retro-styled building was bathed in a warm yellow light.
Xiao An was seated in the corner, silently toying with something.
Bai Yu's head drooped low, and after a lengthy pause, he mumbled “mn.”

 

Yi Yan's pupils glowed with intense excitement and joy.
He softly reassured Bai Yu by holding his hand, “You’ve done well.
Thank you for everything you have done for me.
Don't worry, I will avenge Teacher Bai Cheng!”

 

“Did I make a mistake?” Bai Yu abruptly remarked.

 

“Of course not.” Yi Yan frowned and added, “We are doing all this to rid the world of the drought demon and to eliminate hidden threats to humanity’s future safety.
They are all monsters outside the rules and shouldn't exist in the world in the first place.”

 

Bai Yu didn't say a word, and Yi Yan’s expression softened.

 

“We are not wrong.
Even if there is any problem, I swear I’ll stand in front of you.”

 

After speaking, he hugged the glum Bai Yu firmly, slightly swaying his body, his palms soothing his back like a kid.

 

“You did well…
you did very well…”

 

Bai Yu wrapped his arms about Yi Yan's neck, his tightly closed eyelashes twitching, his lips gently smiling unseen by Yi Yan, his slender eyes shimmering with a mysterious light.

 

You did very well.

 

Really well! Warm baby is extremely caring[7].

Footnotes:

[1] According to legend, a black donkey hoof can keep zombies at bay.
The tomb palace must have a ton of these hooves from all the dead raiders.
I believe WFJ and WXM ate black donkey hoof hotpot in Chapter 8/9.
It's a rather bizarre myth.
You can read the Baidu entry for black donkey hooves here.

[2] According to what I read on Baidu: “Water Margin” hero Lu Zhishen uses the foul words 嘴巴都淡出鸟了(a bird can fade out of mouth!) It means that the mouth has no taste.
As you may know, bird is modern slang for penis.
It sounds strange in English, so I rephrased it to try to convey the meaning.
Please leave a comment if you know how to say it better.

[3] 黑人 牙膏: Chinese name for the brand Darkie toothpaste.
It was renamed Darlie starting March 2022.
It's an interesting read so make sure you read the Wikipedia entry.

[4] Humorous way of saying WXM was shocked.
Titbit: Three views stand for one's world view (世界觀), values of worth (價值觀), and philosophy on life (人生觀).

[5] Not like Tarzan, y'all.
It's someone whose thoughts and actions are unruly.
The polar antithesis of a gentleman.

[7] 暖宝宝很贴心.
I thought this was a meme, but it's not.
I'm not sure what it means, so I've translated it literally.

Translator:

Ahhh….
I believe I've figured out who Yi Yan is! You're screwed, Bai Yu.
The author has an unhealthy obsession for white skin…

If you enjoy the xianxia genre, I totally recommend “Love Between Fairy and Devil.” It's 36 episodes long, and I loooove the first half.
Great CGI, and the music is fantastic.
I watched the ones subbed by iQIYI and I have to say the English subtitles suck big time.
You can wait for Netflix to catch up.
Hopefully, they will improve on the subtitles.
I've just finished watching this.
You should give it a go!!
