Chapter 43 - Sparks

Author note: been a long time huh

––––––––––––––––––––

Su Su looked around as the students were also staring back. Her fox like eyes seemed to entrance men and woman alike. 

Although everyone in the class was interested in interacting with Su Su, there was a hidden pressure. 

Win those around him, and naturally they will help me.

With this thought in mind, she smiled as beautiful as the waning moon. 

"My name is Su Su, from the celestial fox clan. If you have any problems in the future, you can come to me for help."

They all cheered and got closer. 

"Teacher Su Su! Why are you teaching here!?"

"I like to teach students and I wanted to try it."

"Teacher Su Su, are you married?!"

She shooked her head, "No, not yet."

Su Su chuckled a bit and the students themselves felt that there was more meaning behind those words. However, they didn't pry too hard. 

Still, the questions was like quickfire. As one as one question was answered, another one was added. 

Eventually even Su Su was getting tired from this. 

"Alright, alright." She calmed the class down, "Now that you have free time, go and have fun."

Compared to the lazy figure of Hao Yu, Su Su was almost a goddess. Some even complained in their hearts that they should just replace Hao Yu entirely!

The class dispersed and Su Su was now all alone. 

She looked in the direction of Hao Yu's residence. 

Before even walking a few steps in his direction, Liu Tao appeared in front of her. He stroked his white beard with his chest held up high. 

He cleared his throat, "Ms. Su Su, I've recently got a jar of a 10,000 year old wine and I'd like to invite–"

"Thanks for the invitation, but I don't like wine." She bowed and left, leaving only a staggered Liu Tao in the dust. 

With a mirror, he looked at himself. 

"Just you wait, when I get my appearance back! Then we'll see who chases who!"

Crack!

The mirror cracked mysteriously as he held it, shocking the ever living life out of him. 

Su Su scoffed. 

As she was walking towards Hao Yu, yet another situation happened.

"Why is it that today is filled with flies and pest~" Su Su directed this question to a red robed figure. Her own beauty wasn't the same as Su Su, but it was just as beautiful. 

Her orange flame eyes looked down upon Su Su. 

"Vixen."

Her deep clear voice was full of annoyance. 

"Ms. Pheonix, why be so rude? Aren't you afraid of Hao Yu seeing your true self?"

She smiled with a hidden malice. 

They stared at one another, sparks flying between. 

"What are you doing here?" Feng Jia asked coldly. 

"What's wrong with a teacher talking to another teacher?"

Feng Jia scoffed, "You? A teacher? What will you be teaching, how to coax men?"

"Aiyah~ Don't be jealous~" Su Su spoke with elegance, "I get to stay by Hao Yu's side all the time, but I can swear that we only do things appropriately~"

Feng Jia's eye twitched. "Appropriate? The only thing that's appropriate is kicking you out of here!"

Su Su giggled behind her sleeve. "Oh dear, so fierce! But you know, jealousy really doesn't suit you–Maybe you should smile more instead of having such a boring face all day."

Feng Jia no longer bothered to argue with her. "Go away, I need to talk to Hao Yu."

For the first time, Su Su became quiet as her eyes turned cold. "A man and a woman meeting in private can bring up rumors you know~ How about I go with–"

Before she could finish, bright flames burned around her in a circle. Su Su looked unimpressed as Feng Jia spoke.

"I wasn't asking."

Su Su scoffed, "How domineering~" She rolled her eyes. "Fine, I wouldn't want to start a fight for no reason."

She wasn't worried at all. 

What she was worried about was the dao. Before, it had stopped them from making contact with Hao Yu. 

But now, even getting close was fine.

One theory that she thought of was that now was the time. 

Another theory was that it was because she changed her identity on the outside. 

Regardless, she wasn't one to quit just because someone said so.

She retreated and Feng Jia walked towards Hao Yu's residence. 

In front of the door, she simply stood there. 

Just when she was about to knock on the door, she nervously held her hand back. 

Her face was still stoic, but her hand were restless. She blinked repeatedly in shame.

As the Pheonix Empress, why is my heart beating so fast!

As she was thinking of what to say when she met Hao Yu, the doors suddenly opened!

Hao Yu glanced at the strange beauty in front of him and had one thought....

Am I in trouble?

Feng Jia blinked, momentarily caught off guard. As she regained her composure, she started to see his expression. 

Why are you wary of me?

She felt a little hurt and wanted to smack his head, but held it in. 

Even her pride was a little hurt. 

She had expected admiration, surprise, shock, maybe an awkward but romantic scene, but not immediate distress. 

"This lady is??" His voice lingered. 

A beauty of this caliber was almost instantly someone with a high cultivation. 

After all, the more handsome and beautiful a person is, the stronger they are. 

"Feng Jia. Your wife."

"Ah my wife~"

He froze in place. "...did you just say, my wife?"

"That's right."

Hao Yu's mouth was agape and he wanted to run away.

The only red he could see at the moment, were countless RED FLAGS!!!!

Marriage scam!?
