My Wife Is The Final Boss

Which good-tempered cat can go to the lakeside to catch fish every day? Even if its own leg is broken by the fish's flapping, it still fiercely wants to bite the other party to death...

Going against the grain of petting a cat?

Xu Chang'an believes that even if he did it, Xiaohua would still reluctantly nuzzle him, let alone Yun Qian, a stranger.

So, the happenings in this room are absolutely not as harmonious as they appear.

Xu Chang'an gently picked up Xiaohua from Yun Qian's lap and smoothed down Xiaohua's fur, which had been ruffled by Yun Qian: "Miss, petting a cat isn't supposed to be done against the grain. It's because this little guy is not in a good state today, so it didn't bite you."

"..." Yun Qian said, "I don't understand these things."

This little fellow seemed to want to bite her earlier, and indeed directed malice toward her.

But because of the name Xu Xiaohua, Yun Qian ignored the malice.

In fact, this world wouldn't even allow any creature to release malice towards her because if they really offended the lady, the consequences would be unacceptable to everyone.

Hence, Yun Qian even picked up the cat to protect it.

The lady was already very gentle, preventing it from biting her, simply not wanting to make things difficult for Xu Chang'an by bleeding herself.

"I know the miss doesn't understand these things." Xu Chang'an looked at Xiaohua's lazy appearance, saying strangely: "Xiaohua, after I talked to you, did Senior Wen allow you to come out and play?"

"Meow." Li Hua let out a soft meow. Even after being rescued by Xu Chang'an, she was still very scared, and because she couldn't muster up any strength, she burrowed into Xu Chang'an's arms, trying to find a sense of safety.

But because she couldn't exert any force, she just breathed heavily for a moment.

Feeling the soft fold of the cat's ear against him, Xu Chang'an couldn't help but curl his lips, transmitting a bit of Spiritual Qi to help Xiaohua regain her energy.

"..."

All the means Yun Qian used to calm it down completely dispersed upon touching Xu Chang'an's Spiritual Qi, so Xiaohua quickly returned to normal.

However, Xu Chang'an, seeing this scene, thought that he had really helped Xiaohua replenish its Primordial Energy.

But soon, Xu Chang'an couldn't help but laugh aloud because... after recovering, Xiaohua began her act.

Only to see Xiaohua with eyes full of urgency, extending her paw to point at her own mouth, then shaking her paw, and again pointing at Yun Qian, extending her claws a bit.

She meowed, cursing continuously, filled with dissatisfaction towards Yun Qian.

Unfortunately, because it couldn't speak human language, Xu Chang'an could only guess a little of its meaning.

Even Yun Qian noticed something.

This little thing…was actually complaining to Xu Chang'an about her.

Yun Qian looked into Xu Chang'an's arms. The cat, which had been timid earlier, now wagged its tongue against Xu Chang'an's chest, arching its body. It seemed to have gained some courage and dared to raise its head and act conceitedly towards her.

Being favored gives one impudence, making people dislike it.

But because it relied on Xu Chang'an, this scene did not make people dislike it; instead, Yun Qian liked it very much.

"What is this?" Yun Qian became somewhat interested.

When she has a daughter, will her daughter complain to her father like this?

"Miss, this little guy had just been sealed by Senior Wen. Its spiritual power is almost exhausted, and it's probably not in good condition. It's not easy for it to make it here to me." Xu Chang'an quickly sorted everything out, saying with a smile: "In the end, it ran into your hands and got messed with... It's really unfortunate."

As he spoke, Xu Chang'an breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, this little thing was exhausted right after it came, otherwise...

Although Xu Chang'an believed that the cat wouldn't really harm the girl appearing in his room, if it gently bit and left a small wound, he would have to find trouble with this little cat.

"Alright, there's no use in complaining to me." Xu Chang'an held Xiaohua, pressing her raised head back down.

"Meow?!" Hearing Xu Chang'an's words, Li Hua widened her eyes, seeming to not understand why he would say so.

After all, even when Wen Li bullied her, complaining to Xu Chang'an helped.

"This is my Miss." Xu Chang'an suddenly cupped Xiaohua's head with his left hand, scratching her chin, saying with a smile: "Have you ever heard of servants being able to manage their masters? I can usually manage you, but Miss can manage me. This hierarchy is clear, isn't it?"

After saying this, Xu Chang'an looked down at the cat.

Only to see that Li Hua cat was already dumbfounded, her eyes filled with shock.

She, of course, understood the hierarchy and always listened to Xu Chang'an's words… Moreover, she had often heard about the "Miss" and "Wife" from his mouth.

Although she had somewhat guessed Yun Qian's identity, at the critical moment, Xiaohua still couldn't associate the most gentle and beautiful lady in Xu Chang'an's mouth with the terrifying presence before her.

Xu Chang'an, in a certain sense, is indeed her strongest "backup," but if it concerns Yun Qian, there's no need for Yun Qian to take action; he would handle the complainant first.

The Heavenly Dao does it the same way, handling things internally without needing the lady to take action.

One could say Xu Chang'an lives up to being chosen by the Heavenly Dao.

"There, now we are acquainted." Xu Chang'an said as he put away his smile and seriously continued: "I will compensate you with two fruits on behalf of Miss, but in return... be careful in the future, keep those claws in check, understood?"

"...Meow." The cat's ears drooped as Xu Chang'an held her, pressing her head down twice.

"Look at your hopeless expression." Xu Chang'an looked at the cat helplessly, then turned his head.

Only to see Yun Qian watching him and Xiaohua interact with a "very curious" look.

Xiaohua's thinking is simple. Since Xu Chang'an listens to Yun Qian's words, she must also listen to Yun Qian.

This is her simple rule.

Moreover, she somewhat understood.

Yun Qian being this fearsome, no wonder she's the "Miss," and Xu Chang'an is just a "servant," so naturally, she needs to obey.

Since Yun Qian is the master of her master, although Yun Qian is scary, she probably wouldn't hurt her.

She should know when she was about to bite Yun Qian, she felt as if a giant eye was watching her from the void, making her feel as though she could be crushed at any moment, scaring her to the point where she couldn't control her body.

But now, Xiaohua felt much more at ease.

This sense of security, she wondered, might be given by Xu Chang'an's embrace.

Thinking so, the cat casually, in front of Yun Qian, nestled into Xu Chang'an's Daoist robe, leaving only her head poking out, curling her body and ceasing all movements, as if this was the safest place in the world.

And indeed it was.

Hence, Xu Chang'an unexpectedly… heard a purring sound.

Having gone through such great fright, Li Hua actually fell asleep in his arms.

Xu Chang'an: "..."

He still wanted to introduce Yun Qian and Xiaohua to each other, easing the relationship between them, since the girl had "taken advantage" of the cat's misfortune.

"It... likes you this much." Yun Qian looked appreciatively at the little fellow sleeping soundly in Xu Chang'an's arms.

"Just feed it some food on a regular basis." Xu Chang'an lowered his voice in explanation: "Miss, Xiaohua isn't exactly a pet I keep. To be precise, it's a cultivator, even started open source earlier than I did."

He had long said that he didn't mean to keep pets, as spending that time would be better spent with Yun Qian.

Good relations with Xiaohua weren't without reason, given back on the mountain, Yun Qian wasn't by his side.

"Hmm." Yun Qian apparently didn't care about the matter, her lips moved slightly, softly reciting several names.

"Liu Qingluo, Li Zhibai, Wen Li… Xu Xiaohua?"

Even with Xu Chang'an's hearing ability, he wasn't able to hear clearly, asking in puzzlement: "What did you say?"

"I'm calculating..." Yun Qian blinked but didn't finish.

She was calculating how many destined relationships the Heavenly Dao had arranged without her appearance. But, with her presence, the destiny became causality.

Just don't know whether Wen Li and Xu Xiaohua count as one person or two?
