Chapter 137. Frankness, assurance
"Don’t worry, don’t worry, I’m not a deity, not a demon, just an ordinary person with flesh and blood like you. I won’t ascend to the heavens, nor will I suddenly disappear. Really, as long as you don’t mind me, we’ll live as a loving couple for life," Shuzhen said soothingly, gently patting Lianshan’s hand.
"Then... how did you manage to make the cotton sprout grow so big in an instant earlier, nearly strangling Wu Xia? And after releasing her, why did those cotton plants return to normal?" Please forgive a genuinely innocent guy who’s never encountered the information explosion era and never heard of online novels. Lianshan really hadn’t heard of supernatural abilities.
In his younger days, he did hear his mom tell many stories about deities, about how they could create armies from beans and turn stone into gold with divine methods. So, watching Shuzhen silently control those cotton plants, he couldn’t help but envision her as a deity.
Hearing his wife say she wasn’t a deity or a demon, but just an ordinary person like him, Lianshan genuinely breathed a sigh of relief.
The reason being, after hearing so many mythological stories, he had never heard of a cross-species romance involving deities or human-demon falling in love that ended happily.
Half his worries calmed, he began to grow curious about his wife’s mysterious methods that resembled those of deities.
Since she had decided to be honest, Shuzhen didn’t hide anything further.
From that day picking vegetables in the garden, when she lamented that the tiny cucumber was too small, only for it to suddenly grow into a foot-long spiky cucumber. She shared how she discovered her superpower and gradually learned to use and control it, sharing everything in detail.
Except for the fact that she was reborn, she didn’t hide anything else.
Of course, during this time, she often expressed her confusion and anxiety, trying every method to support the family, wishing both her in-laws and family could enjoy three meals a day and live well. Despite all the efforts, she merely managed to accelerate the ripening of some dried eggplants and green beans, and created a mushroom circle that brought some profits.
