The Dragon Prince's Wife is a Translator

1342 Chapter 29 Xi Xue Love Story

’Should I just mate with another sacred beast? But we can’t simply mate without marrying...’

The guy covered his eyes and sighed.

’We are unlike normal beasts that can mate whenever they like!’

Xi Xue punched the bed and sighed for another time. Once more he sighed, he might get a lottery ticket.

’What to do...should I relieve myself?’

Xi Xue looked at his little brother down there and instantly shook his head.

’Bíng Huo is next to me how could I do that??’

The man felt like the world was going to end soon but then after calming himself for a few minutes, he raised up. Xi Xue then got off the bed and walked toward Bíng Huo’s bedroom area.

"Senior." Xi Xue knocked on the partition even though he could simply enter through the empty space near it.

"...what is it?" Bíng Huo’s voice sounded but the girl didn’t move. She just sat on her bed in a lotus position.

"Senior, we need to talk, " Xi Xue spoke. His tone of voice was so serious that Bíng Huo couldn’t help but open her eyes.

The sunlight of the evening slowly came through the window, turning her hair red.

"....okay." Bíng Huo paused before nodding. He slowly got off the bed and walked toward Xi Xue who was waiting near the partition.

"What do you want to talk about?" The girl crossed her arm in front of her chest, looking wary of the guy. Ever since she knew Xi Xue already discovered her gender, she couldn’t let her guard down.

’I don’t know what Xi Xue might do to me!’

Seeing Bíng Huo’s state, Xi Xue lowered his head and sighed. "Senior, no need to be so guarded. Am I that bad in your eyes?"

Bíng Huo flinched and paused for a while. She bit her lips and slowly lowered her hands. "Sorry. I was just too...scared."

’Since you know my gender.’

"...let’s talk in my room, shall we? You can sit on my bed." Xi Xue walked away from the girl and took a chair. He hurriedly sat on the chair a few meters away from his bed.

Xi Xue already did so, leaving no room for Bíng Huo to refuse. She could only stride over and sat on the man’s bed.

Xi Xue’s smell instantly struck her nose and somehow she felt more relaxed than before. The girl casually tugged Xi Xue’s blanket and wrapped it around her body before speaking.

"Okay, so...what do you want to talk about?" The girl averted her eyes and tightened the grip on the blanket covering her body.

Seeing Bíng Huo wrapped in his blanket, Xi Xue didn’t know whether to laugh or not.

"Uh, senior, I think you already know.... that I know your true gender?" Xi Xue coughed and spoke straight to the point.

!

"How...I didn’t tell you yet I know about this." Bíng Huo’s eyes widened but then she calmed down.

’Ah, Xi Xue might hear my shout back then.’

"Well, I heard your scream." Xi Xue shrugged. "So you must already know about this."

"...yeah." Bíng Huo finally admitted. "I know you already discover my true gender..." she bit her lips and looked at Xi Xue.

"Why you pretend you don’t know? Since when you know I’m a girl?" Bíng Huo tried to speak calmly but her shaky voice ruined it.

’I want to talk this out nicely rather than shunning Xi Xue for no reason. We have only known each other for a day but...’

Bíng Huo looked at Xi Xue with longing eyes.

’I don’t know why I am so comfortable around him.’

"You see...if you know I’m a girl...you should have told me in the first place." Bíng Huo sighed. "For you to pretend not knowing..."

"Or you just know now when the ice eagle called me granddaughter?" Bíng Huo tilted her head.

’There are only 2 options after all. Either he knows from the start or just now.’

"...I’m sorry. I know you are a girl from the first time I meet you." Xi Xue lowered his head while clutching his skirt. "I thought you don’t want me to tell you that so..."

’I’m just afraid you will run away from me if you know I discover your true gender.’ Xi Xue swallowed the rest of the sentence he wanted to say.

"...from the beginning?" Bíng Huo’s head throbbed. The girl looked at Xi Xue and shook her head.

"Xi Xue...how strong are you? My grandpa said only people with strength on par with a sacred beast can see through my disguise."

’If he knew from the start then...he is super strong! Not only that...he also played along with me and treated me as a senior brother.’

"I..." Xi Xue gulped. He didn’t answer for a while and Bíng Huo squeezed the guy’s blanket.

Thinking about it again, Bíng Huo felt like she was a fool. Xi Xue already knew everything from the start yet pretended he didn’t know.

"....I...am I a fool in your eyes..." Bíng Huo murmured but then Xi Xue still could hear it. He instantly stood up and shouted,

"No, no! It’s not like that- I..." The guy’s face paled. He looked at Bíng Huo as if he was hurt by something.

"I..." Xi Xue bit his lips and slowly sat down again.

’Can I tell her I’m a sacred beast?’

"...you are already so strong for your age. Why would you come to this Academy?" Bíng Huo continued her interrogation? "Xi Xue...I don’t understand what you want to do."

"Or maybe your real age isn’t even like your appearance?"

BA-THUMP!
