Venerable Demon King & The Doting Immortal (QT) novel Chapter 226

Chapter 226: Husband spying in his wife

Xiang Yu left the warehouse earlier than usual today, the sun was still high in the sky, casting a warm glow over the suburb.

His red car pulled up to the curb, and almost immediately, the girls who where waiting at pick up point noticed him. Lian and Mei, came running their faces lit up with excitement. They put their school bags at the trunk of the car and got in.

"Master, Master, look!" Mei shouted, waving a piece of paper in the air as she entered inside the car. "I got an E today in English!"

Xiang Yu turned his head slightly to take a look. His brow furrowing as he took the paper from Mei’s hand. The glaring red ’E’ stood out starkly against the white background. He couldn’t quite tell if this was supposed to be a good thing or a bad thing.

Lian, ever the more straightforward of the two, clarified, "E is as good as a fail."

Xiang Yu’s expression turned blank. "..." He hadn’t expected stellar grades from the twins, but this seemed particularly low. "What about you, Lian? What did you get?"

With a mischievous grin, Lian proudly displayed her own paper. "I got an F, hehe."

Xiang Yu found himself chuckling despite the situation. "Alright, put on your seat belts," he instructed.

"Okay!" the twins choruses as they buckled up. Once they were safely strapped in, Xiang Yu started the car and pulled away from the curb.

"Master, why did you come back early today?" Mei asked, her curiosity piqued.

Xiang Yu glanced at her in the rearview mirror. "What, you prefer that Han Zhan came to pick you up?"

"No," Mei replied quickly. "We thought you were still busy."

"I’m not busy anymore," Xiang Yu said with a smile. "I thought we could go out and have some fun today. And then watch some fireworks later."

The twins’ eyes sparkled with genuine excitement. They already had a plan forming in their minds. "Let’s go watch a movie, then shopping, and then eat outside!" Lian suggested enthusiastically.

"Master, let’s go eat hotpot today," Lian added. "I heard from Brother Bai that it’s delicious."

"And let’s watch a horror movie," Mei chimed in. "I want one that’s really scary."

Xiang Yu readily agreed though he had no idea that horror movies were age-restricted. He knew the twins wouldn’t be afraid of such things, but the challenge would be sneaking them into the theatre. "That sounds fun. Let’s go," he said, driving off towards their adventure-filled afternoon.
