CHAPTER 402: CHAPTER 272: YE HUANGYU’S CONFESSION (PART 3)

Inside the python’s belly, stomach acid was abundant. The clothing on both of their bodies had been corroded by the acid, even their skin had slight burns. The cloth Ye Huangyu used to conceal her female features had also unknowingly loosened.

"You... you are a woman... ah?" Nie Fengxing stuttered as if he suddenly had a speech impediment, not knowing where to place his hands and feet.

"What did you think I was?" Ye Huangyu said irritably, this blockhead had still not realized her gender.

Fortunately, it was pitch black inside the python’s belly, otherwise she really didn’t know how embarrassed she would feel.

Joy surged like a tide. If it weren’t for the fact that they were still inside the python’s belly, uncertain of life and death, and Ye Huangyu was injured, Nie Fengxing really wanted to hold Ye Huangyu tightly and kiss her fiercely.

"It’s great, Princess Ye, I almost thought our Nie Family would have no descendants." The moment Nie Fengxing was swallowed by the double-headed python, he had already harbored a thought.

If they could survive this time, he would tell Princess Ye that he liked "him," even if Princess Ye didn’t like him, he wouldn’t give up.

But now that Princess Ye is a woman, it’s even better.

No wonder Princess Ye had earlier asserted confidently that there was absolutely no romantic feelings between her and Ye Huang, and even looked at him with a strange gaze.

Thinking back now, Princess Ye’s gaze clearly meant "Are you a pig?"

Nie Fengxing burst into laughter, the laughter pulling at his wounds, causing him to cough violently.

"Don’t make such big movements, we’re still inside the python’s belly, there’s very little air here. If it continues like this, before being suffocated to death, you’ll die from your injuries." The effects of the life-extending elixir inside Ye Huangyu had taken effect.

Nie Fengxing’s wounds had improved somewhat, but neither of them had thought of a way to escape from the python’s belly.

In the darkness, Nie Fengxing hugged Princess Ye, and to make her more comfortable, Nie Fengxing placed her head on his uninjured side of the chest.

The soft long hair of the woman brushed against Nie Fengxing’s bare chest, smelling the faint feminine scent from her body and hair, Nie Fengxing made a decision.

"Princess Ye, what is your real name?"

"Ye Huangyu." Ye Huangyu replied softly.

"Huanyu? It’s a nice name. Huanyu, if we can get out alive, would you marry me?"

Ye Huangyu did not respond for a long time.

Her head was resting on the man’s chest, and when Nie Fengxing spoke those words just now, she could hear his heartbeat, sounding like drums, apparently, he was very nervous.

"Nie Fengxing, do you really want to marry me... even though I deceived you?"

Nie Fengxing felt a bit wet on his chest; was she, crying?

"Hehe, are you talking about you disguising as a man to join the army? Huanyu, how could I blame you? I’ve long told myself, whether you are a man or a woman, the one I like is you as a person."

Feeling somewhat heartache, he lifted the woman’s face, and with his rough fingertips, Nie Fengxing wiped away the tears on Ye Huangyu’s cheeks.

He didn’t know how to comfort a woman, he could only try his best to learn, to coax her, to console her.

"What if I tell you, I have already been married before, Ye Lingyue is my daughter... Could you still not blame me?" Her heart ached as if it was being torn apart.

Ye Huangyu was exhausted when she said these words.

The hands on her face stopped.

Indeed, no man in the world could accept a married woman who had given birth to a child and then been abandoned.

Ye Huangyu turned her face away, avoiding Nie Fengxing’s hand.

"Then your man..." Nie Fengxing asked, sounding like a mosquito bite.

"Fourteen years ago, in order to marry a woman beneficial to his future, he kicked me and Ling Yue out of the house. That man, you know him too, he is Hong Fang." Ye Huangyu’s voice grew increasingly colder.

"Great!" Nie Fengxing shouted loudly, startling Ye Huangyu.

"I always said, you hate Hong Fang so much, so he was that scumbag. The only right thing he did in this life was send you before me," Nie Fengxing was so afraid he almost forgot to breathe just now.

While waiting for Ye Huangyu’s answer, he repeated in his mind dozens, if not hundreds of times.

"Death, he must die, whether from illness, battle, anyhow, Huangyu’s man must die."

Important things must be said a hundred times!

If that man hadn’t died, Nie Fengxing really didn’t know what to do; he certainly couldn’t become a home-wrecker.

"You... you’re not angry?" The tears in Ye Huangyu’s eyes solidified.

This was completely different from what she had expected.

"What’s there to be angry about? If he doesn’t want you, that’s his lack of insight. And someone petty like Hong Fang, in what way is he worthy of you? You were really blinded by crap to fancy such a man. If you had met me in Xia Capital a few years earlier, you would have known what a real man is. But it doesn’t matter, what woman doesn’t go through one or two scumbags before finding true love?" Nie Fengxing was already drowned in happiness, blabbering contentedly.

"But... I am two years older than you." Ye Huangyu still found it hard to believe.

"A woman three years older finds a gold brick, you being two years older is at least worth a silver brick, right? Huangyu, does this mean you agree to me?" Nie Fengxing was already smiling foolishly.

"I... have you asked your parents?" Ye Huangyu was afraid that Nie Fengxing’s parents wouldn’t like her.

Although she had never heard Nie Fengxing mention his parents, by his demeanor, he seemed likely not to be an orphan.

"My wife, don’t worry. My mother adores me, she will definitely agree if I want to marry, as for that old bastard in the house, you don’t have to care about him, he doesn’t care about anything other than martial arts training."

Nie Fengxing patted his chest, assuring that his parents would not be a problem.

Ye Huangyu was capable and beautiful; Nie Fengxing was sure his mother would like her once they met.

"Who... who is your wife already." Ye Huangyu was annoyed and pinched Nie Fengxing, who started howling with a blissful expression.

"Just spouting nonsense. We don’t even know if we can get out alive yet." Ye Huangyu’s face was filled with worry.

It was her determination to earn military exploits that made her rashly engage the Double-headed Python. This Ninth-grade Peak Double-headed Python, even if she and Nie Fengxing teamed up, might not be able to match it. Probably only her master, Marquis Gu Cangtian, could contend with it.

"We will definitely get out. I already thought of a method." Nie Fengxing had already figured out a strategy before proposing. He fiddled with his belt, found a mechanism, lightly tapped it, and out rolled an Elixir Pill. "This Reincarnation Elixir was given to me by our daughter, Princess Ye."

Nie Fengxing said the word ’daughter’ so naturally, with not a bit of unease.
