Someone was saying the other thread was too long, so a new thread for a new chapter!

Chap 97
Only now was Xiao Yu’er truly shocked. He used all his strength to leap up, thinking of carrying Su Ying’s body in mid-air, but the force of Su Ying’s fall was too great and although Xiao Yu’er’s martial arts has greatly improved, he still can’t catch her. There was a splash and the both of them fell into the water at the same time.
A shower of water droplets flew out and it was only after a while that Xiao Yu’er can be seen coming out from beneath the water, drenched. Carrying Su Ying, he jumped onto the rock.
Herbalist Hu can’t help but smile and said, “She’s not deliberately saying those words to scare people, right?”
Xiao Yu’er sighed and said with a bitter smile, “This lass is really different from other women. I can’t help but begin to suspect if she really is a woman.”
He had thought that Su Ying must have fainted from fear. Who would have expected that although ‘this lass’s’ body is more fragile than a peach flower in spring, but her mind is stronger than an old bamboo in winter. Not only did she not faint, but she seems quite comfortable, quite intrigued, her large eyes staring unwaveringly at Xiao Yu’er.
Xiao Yu’er was surprised for a moment, and suddenly released his hold and threw Su Ying onto the rock, shouting, “Let me ask you, what do you mean by this. I’m not in any dog arse way related to you, why do you want to die for me? Do you want me to be grateful to you? Be your slave for the rest of my life?”
Su Ying replied slowly, “I do not wish for you to become my slave too, I only want you to become my husband.”
Xiao Yu’er was again shocked, and pointing at Su Ying, asked Herbalist Hu, “Did you hear that? Did you hear what the lass said? Such a thick skinned woman, I’m afraid you’ve never seen one like that?”
Su Ying smiled, “No matter what, he has finally seen one now, his eyes have certainly feasted.”
Xiao Yu’er stared at her for a long time before suddenly sighing and while shaking his head, said “Let me ask you, you are willing to die for a man, but this man gets a headache once he sets eyes on you, don’t you feel even a little bad at all?”
Su Ying replied, “Why must I feel bad? I know that although you keep saying you have a headache, but in your heart you must like it a lot. If you do not care about me at all, why did you jump up to catch me just now?”
Xiao Yu’er replied coldly, “Even if it’s a dog who dropped down, I would still go and catch it.”
Su Ying smiled, “I know you deliberately said such vicious and harsh words, deliberately pretended to be cold and fierce because you are afraid, so I will never be angry.”
Xiao Yu’er stared and said, “Just what am I afraid of.”
Su Ying replied slowly, “You’re afraid I’ll climb over you in future, and even more afraid that you will fall madly in love with me in future, so you deliberately made yourself that way to protect yourself, because you want others to think that you’re a heartless person. But if you’re really heartless, then you won’t have done all these.”
Xiao Yu’er jumped up, “Bullshit, absolutely bullshit.”
Su Ying laughed, “When a person’s heartfelt feelings are revealed by someone else, he’ll certainly be upset. Although you’re scolding me, but I don’t blame you.”
Xiao Yu’er stared at her for a long moment before mumbling, “Heaven, heaven, why did you let me meet such a woman.” As he spoke, he suddenly somersaulted into the water and hitting his own head, said “Finished, finished, I’m finished. If a man were to meet such an emotional woman, he can only shave his head and become a monk.”
Su Ying smiled, “Then there will be one more monk who drinks and eat meat, and a nun who drinks and eat meat.”
Even Xiao Yu’er can’t help but feel surprised, “Nun who drinks and eat meat?’
Su Ying explained, “When you’ve become a monk, naturally I can only become a nun. When I am a nun, naturally I will be one who drinks and eat meat, or could it be that only monks are allowed to drink and eat meat but not nuns?”
Xiao Yu’er groaned and sunk into the water.
Herbalist Hu almost wanted to burst out laughing from witnessing this scene and thought to himself, “This Xiao Yu’er usually can antagonize everyone with his words, I cannot imagine that he has met his match today. This Miss Su is really intelligent, she had known long ago that if a woman wants a man like Xiao Yu’er to give in to her, she must use the same method on him.”
Xiao Yu’er’s head is still submerged in water, and he still refused to come up. It seems that he’d rather drown than die of exasperation.
