My wife is a dragon

Chapter 200 The Dragon Wants to Eat Humans (4.2K)

During the evening rush hour, the sun sets and the city's veins are gently outlined by the neon lights.

In the spider web woven by cars, the lights are intertwined, and the slowly creeping steel is like a torrent under the night sky.

Xia Li holds the steering wheel.

He did not drive the car towards home, but drove into a road he had never been to.

Looking at the street scene that keeps receding outside the window, this unfamiliar scenery makes Lucia look confused.

Although she has been on Earth for almost half a year, she is still a little shocked when facing the huge human city.

The high-rise buildings on both sides are like strict guardian knights. Sitting in the car, she looks quite small in this steel jungle.

"Where are you going..."

Lucia turned around, and the bun behind her head blew away a few strands of hair. The bow hairpin was a little crooked, and her neck was shrunk in the collar, looking a little timid.

Lucia tucked her hair behind her ears and looked at Xia Li, asking quietly.

It's just that the word "Xia" was not changed to "Gong". Is the hero going to take the dragon to the market to sell it?

"I'll treat you to a meal to celebrate your one-week work."

Xia Li glanced at the mobile phone hanging on the air outlet. The map on it showed that there was still one kilometer to the destination.

"One week, you persisted. This is a good start." Xia Li added.

The so-called celebration is just an excuse. The purpose of doing this is to create a little surprise in life.

Look how scared this dragon is.

Xia Li knew that such a surprise would work.

However, Xia Li was right about one thing.

Before sending Lucia to the pet hospital, he had thought that if Lucia was not used to the outside world or had difficulty communicating with people, then he would take Lucia back, whether she went to class or not.

—— Considering Lucia's level of social phobia at the time, Xia Li had a hunch that it was very likely that he would take her home halfway.

But Lucia persisted and overcame many difficulties.

Lucia would not tell Xia Li all the difficulties. When getting along with people, it often takes a period of adjustment, and it is normal to have quarrels and conflicts during the adjustment period.

There are so many employees in the pet hospital. Just getting along with colleagues is a headache, not to mention facing various customers and small animals.

Lucia has never complained to Xia Li, but it does not mean that there is no suffering.

Xia Li also tacitly accepted that the dragon has worked very hard.

"Only one week..."

Lucia muttered and counted on her fingers.

"I have to change a new nest and continue... many, many days!"

"One week is already very good. I used to feel physically and mentally exhausted just by going out to work as a waiter for a day... If you feel tired one day, tell me, we don't have to stick to this thing."

Xia Li turned the steering wheel and took a look at Lucia while looking at the rearview mirror.

"This is not a kind of persistence. I feel very at ease when I wake up every day and see that there is an extra 40 yuan in my pocket." Lucia pulled the seat belt in her arms and looked out the window again.

This is one of the few things that can bring value to her.

Long's brain does not have too many lofty ambitions. The value she wants now is the literal value. It means small money.

Money is the magic in this world. You can get whatever you want.

Buying fried baba costs three yuan each, buying Xia Li costs two hundred yuan a day, and buying a new building in Qingcheng City costs 18,000 yuan per square meter...

Watching these dreams accumulate little by little and then come true is also a kind of happiness.

Xia Li stared at Lucia's serious look, moved his lips, and said nothing more.

From getting off the car to going to the restaurant, Lucia's little mouth started to talk non-stop like an engine with oil.

What about new patients in the hospital, a puppy that miraculously survived after being run over by a car, a kitten that was found to be pregnant during sterilization surgery, a little rabbit that couldn't poop, a confrontation between a client and a doctor, and an office romance.

When Xia Li listened to the first half, he simply regarded these things as learning clinical experience.

But the latter part of the conversation made him stunned.

"Office romance?"

Xia Li said woodenly.

"Is this the level that a little dragon like you can touch???"

In my impression, the level that Lucia can touch is only the level of "kindergarten children holding hands".

How come this guy has been exposed to office romance in the blink of an eye? Even Xia Li has never seen this.

"Yes, the hospital recruited a lot of interns after the New Year. In addition to me, there is another fresh graduate. That fresh graduate is the nephew of the dean... That nephew and a nurse named Liu in our hospital were former lovers. Boyfriend and girlfriend? Yes, they were ex-boyfriend and girlfriend..."

Lucia said a lot like a small horn on an electric bicycle.

Xia Li was surprised that Long could figure out social relationships and find out to this extent.

"This is what Xia Xin told me... It was the gentle lady who took me to familiarize myself with the environment on the first day of work. She told me these things every day, and my ears were callused."

Lucia had no words to say.

If she encountered any problems at work, getting along with colleagues was the most difficult thing for her.

She doesn't like to talk about other people's private affairs, but if she takes the initiative to avoid talking when people around her are chatting, she will become the one who is isolated.

Lucia only worked for a week and found this sign, which forced her to join the camp of those girls.

When talking to A about B, A said bad things about B, she nodded and said "hmm". When talking to B about A, B said bad things about A, she also nodded and agreed.

When A and B were present at the same time, everyone acted as if nothing happened.

No wonder people say that human nature is sinister.

Four girls can form five small groups.

Lucia has shown herself to be quite sociable, but she also feels out of place.

"Don't learn so much from local girls..." Xia Li interrupted, "There is no need to cater to some bad places, just say it if you don't like it."

Xia Li was afraid that her little dragon would suffer a loss, and was also afraid that she would learn some messy things.

Especially the unique personality of local girls.

The "Shu Province Tyrannosaurus" mentioned by others is an adjective, but his dragon is a real dragon, the kind that can't be stopped when it gets angry.

During the conversation, the two turned left and right at the complicated street corner, and finally stopped in front of a shop.

"Evil Dragon Slaughterhouse!"

Lucia looked at the raw meat pictures on the sign at the door, and suddenly felt that she had entered a very unusual store.

Xia Li smiled and said, "Sushi restaurants, this kind of store likes to make sashimi pictures for promotion, sashimi means raw meat..."

Although Lucia has almost understood this society, she still lacks in many aspects.

For example, this kind of store.

Places that have not been to are not visited. When talking with colleagues and friends about this word, she will only choose to remain silent, because she has never seen these things.

People can't imagine things they haven't seen, and the same is true for dragons.

Staring at the red raw meat pictures for a while, Lucia swallowed her saliva.

Xia Li had never allowed her to eat raw food before...

He said that the first milestone of human civilization was to cook raw meat. Eating raw food was something that only savages would do, so he didn't let Lucia eat it.

However, the bigger reason was that he didn't want to activate Lucia's wild instincts.

Especially this kind of bloody food...When Lucia was a dragon, she put living things in her mouth and chewed them directly, which was terrifying to think about.

So after returning to Earth, Xia Li had been avoiding these contacts, and even let Lucia eat well-done steak when they went out.

Today, I want Lucia to try something new.

What Xia Li was afraid of this time was not to activate Lucia's nature, but that Lucia had been too much like a person recently, and she had put the cart before the horse.

People occasionally eat some raw food, which is called food diversity.

"How does it taste?"

Xia Li pulled Lucia to sit in the corner of the store.

This is a conveyor belt sushi restaurant. The rotating machine in front of it was like an assembly line, spitting out stacks of sushi from the hole.

The biggest advantage of this kind of restaurant is that you don't have to wait for the food to be served, you can eat directly after sitting down.

Lucia stared at the assembly line for a while and felt dizzy. When she looked down, a ball of white rice with meat slices flew over, and she happened to open her mouth to catch it.

"Ah~"

Lucia squinted her eyes and chewed twice after eating the rice that Xia Li fed her.

The raw meat tasted like jelly, without any bloody taste, which was far from the taste of the raw lamb she chewed on the Aize continent.

"Good..."

"Good!" Xia Li answered her.

He knew that Lucia would say this.

Lucia, who was guessed, closed her mouth very embarrassedly, looked around at the people around her, and then picked up her small bamboo chopsticks and picked up another piece of sushi.

Xia Li must have secretly used the mind-reading magic, and even imitated her tone.

Is she usually so childish?

She is obviously a hundred years old, and it's all Xia Li's fault.

The rice balls dipped in soy sauce tasted very good. Lucia didn't like chili, so this kind of food was quite suitable for her appetite.

"Why doesn't the fish here smell fishy?"

Picking up a piece of bright red fish, Lucia shook her chopsticks and stared at the lines on it with her eyes.

Then she ate it all in one gulp.

"Because this is a sea fish, and there is a special way to handle it..."

Xia Li couldn't answer this question either. He was not a professional, so he had to say in a roundabout way: "If you choose to be a 'chef' instead of a veterinarian, you will know how to handle these ingredients."

"I wanted to be a little cook at first," Lucia said with regret, "but I don't regret it. My ability is more suitable for animals... Even the attending doctor with eight years of clinical experience praised me for my quick response and the most outstanding ability he has seen in recent years."

When it comes to work, this dragon machine gun will start chattering again.

After eating and chatting for more than an hour, the stinky dragon was finally fed.

The meal cost them more than 300 yuan. Xia Li took advantage of the time when the dragon went to the bathroom to wash his claws and quickly ran to pay the bill, so that the dragon would not feel bad about spending money.

"Xia Li, I have an idea."

Lucia walked behind Xia Li, shaking the water droplets on the dragon's claws, looking back every few steps, and it can be seen that she is still reluctant to leave this restaurant.

"What did you think of in your dragon brain?"

"This conveyor belt has an end and a starting point."

"Then what?"

"Then, I just need to squat at the end and open my mouth...the sushi will automatically fall into my mouth!"

Xia Li: "..."

Although I roughly know what the dragon wants to say, it is indeed childish sometimes.

Lucia is still the same Lucia. Although she has changed a lot in less than half a year, some places have not changed at all.

"This is called eating natural buffet!" The evil dragon concluded.

"...Do you think that the sushi on this conveyor belt is automatically generated? That's because there are chefs behind it. If there is no chef, even if you open your mouth, no food will fall into your mouth."

Xia Li suddenly thought of a crocodile with its mouth wide open waiting for food. This should be the feeling that Lucia wants.

"Oh, I see, the conveyor belt can be omitted, just let the chef make it and throw it into my mouth...If the chef is slow to make the sushi, then eat the chef too."

"..."Xia Li was choked by this sentence.

"I just took you to eat two taels of meat, and your dragon brain starts to want to eat people!?"

"Hehe, just kidding...Xia Li can't take jokes anyway." Lucia stuck out her tongue, with a naughty expression on her face.

Xia Li couldn't help it, and pinched the dragon's face into a big pancake.

"Brave man, spare my life~"

Lucia pretended to be very cowardly and squeezed out four words from her mouth, and Xia Li instantly gave in.

"Say you're wrong."

"You're wrong."

"...It's 'I'm wrong'."

"I forgive you!"

"You you you..."

The evil dragon played Tai Chi with him, and successfully took advantage of Xia Li.

Xia Li suffered a big loss in human language for the first time, and felt furious.

Walking on the street, the night was late to come, and the sunset was like an orange ribbon, dividing the sky into two sections of light and dark.

Xia Li looked up and looked at the stars in the deep blue sky.

There was a feeling of peace and tranquility.

Putting aside those sudden distracting thoughts, if he is unwilling to get involved in other things and not to "meddle in other people's business", this peaceful life can probably last for a long time.

"Old Xia, I also found that there is a pattern at the entrance of this human cub school."

The little hand held by Xia Li moved in his palm, and the pair of round and cute eyes like apricots looked at the kindergarten in front, staring at something.

"..."

Xia Li hesitated for a moment.

He thought, if this dragon dared to talk about human cubs, then he would beat the dragon.

"Every human cub here is led by an adult when they go out." The evil dragon analyzed with a stern face.

"So you are talking about this..." Xia Li exhaled.

"Huh?"

"This is a daycare class. Parents who get off work late will let their children eat dinner in the daycare class before taking them home."

Xia Li explained this phenomenon to Lucia, and then he took Lucia's hand and shook it.

"Aren't you also a child who has parents to take you home now?"

Xia Li felt that what he said was quite romantic.

It fits the scene very well.

Any girl would be moved...

However, Lucia's heart was indeed moved, and her eyes lit up.

"Yes!"

Lucia reacted and smiled immediately.

"I am your grandma!"

Xia Li: "..."

How come the heroes are still suppressed by the dragon even though they have returned to Earth?

I was so angry.

When can we start slaying dragons?

I can't hold it back any longer.
