The bathroom was damp.
After giving birth to the dragon egg, Miss Evil Dragon seemed more mature and charming, exuding a rose pheromone that was extremely seductive.
Long Ling held Miss Evil Dragon’s dragon tail, which was radiant after being meticulously cared for, and raised a hand to wipe the watermarks on her cheek.
She picked up a soft little brush and tentatively brushed it over the beautiful dragon scales.
The beautiful dragon tail immediately curled up and patted her legs several times.
Miss Evil Dragon’s eyes were full of spring: “No foam.”
Long Ling’s legs were patted red, turned around and took a row of soaps, and put them in front of Miss Evil Dragon for her to choose.
This time Miss Evil Dragon wanted to try something different and chose a camellia-scented soap.
Long Ling lowered her head and carefully applied foam to the smooth dragon tail, not missing every inch.
After the crimson dragon tail was covered with foam, slender white fingers stroked the dragon tail, and there was a soft rustling sound.
Long Ling gently brushed it twice, and the increasingly hot dragon tail rolled back and forth in her palm.
The fragrance of the surrounding pheromones changed, and the rose branches seemed to be tightly entwined around her.
She looked at the blush on Miss Evil Dragon’s cheeks and didn’t immediately call a halt, but slowly and meticulously brushed her from top to bottom.
Until Miss Evil Dragon couldn’t bear it anymore, the hot dragon tail tightly wrapped around Long Ling’s arm and pulled Long Ling into her arms.
Miss Evil Dragon’s hot breath covered Long Ling’s ear: “Are you doing this on purpose? It’s not like this at all when you brush the baby.”
Long Ling’s thick eyelashes blinked twice: “It’s all the same. If you don’t like it, I won’t brush it for you.”
Miss Evil Dragon kissed her lips: “I didn’t tell you to stop.”
Long Ling gently bit Miss Evil Dragon’s lower lip and sucked down along Miss Evil Dragon’s neck.
It took her a lot of time to bathe Miss Evil Dragon, and then they put on their bathrobes together and carried Miss Evil Dragon out of the bathroom. The sun was about to set.
Miss Evil Dragon’s whole body seemed to have been moisturized, and many red marks were exposed from the slightly open neckline.
The glands on the side of her neck still had marks of being sucked hard, exuding a mature and seductive charm.
Her hand supported her cheek, and a hint of crimson flowed from the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.
She gently stroked the dragon egg on the velvet blanket: “It’s not that hot now. Take the baby out to bask in the sun.”
Long Ling looked at Miss Evil Dragon’s charming appearance, her throat rolled, and she was a little reluctant to leave.
Her voice was inexplicably hoarse: “Okay, I’ll wait for you to come back later.”
Long Ling bent down and carried the dragon egg on the furry blanket to the balcony, and then came back to get the small cradle.
The cradle was made by Modai entrusted to the elves.
Like the swing Long Ling made in front of her house before, the magic vines used can automatically swing the cradle.
These vines clung to the cradle, and the wooden cradle was wrapped in soft vines
. A thick layer of tender green grass leaves was laid, with small white and pink flowers blooming, so there was no need to worry about bumping into the dragon egg.
After the dragon egg was exposed to the warm sunlight, a gentle breeze blew on the surface of the eggshell.
Long Ling originally wanted to go back to the room to accompany Miss Evil Dragon, but she happened to see a stack of picture books placed in the corner of the balcony.
She picked up the picture book and flipped through it.
They were all new picture books that she hadn’t seen before.
Miss Evil Dragon must have deliberately found them for her.
She saw the melody she had occasionally heard on it, and couldn’t help but sing a low and gentle nursery rhyme to the little dragon cub.
Miss Evil Dragon waited for Long Ling for a long time and came out of the room. Hearing Long Ling singing, she couldn’t help but wonder: “When did you learn to sing?”
Long Ling said modestly: “I just learned it when I heard it occasionally. It’s for coaxing children. I didn’t sing it well.”
Miss Evil Dragon knew that as long as Long Ling wanted to learn something, she could easily learn it. It would be great if their little dragon cub was as smart as Long Ling.
She hugged Long Ling from behind: “It sounds good. You haven’t sung to me.”
Long Ling’s cheeks were slightly hot, and she said sweetly: “Then I’ll sing to you now.”
Long Ling moved a small chair and let Miss Evil Dragon sit next to her. On the right was their dragon egg baby.
She leaned on Miss Evil Dragon’s shoulder, approached Miss Evil Dragon’s ear, and sang softly.
The affectionate tone of the lovers in the evening breeze was like a mellow and sweet wine, intoxicating.
Miss Evil Dragon’s slender hand stroked Long Ling’s cheek and leaned in Long Ling’s arms.
Until the sun set, the family of three was immersed in a sweet atmosphere.
After the maternity leave ended, Miss Evil Dragon’s condition improved day by day, and she was able to return to work.
Long Ling also had to continue to run her shop.
The dragon egg was taken care of by the two of them separately, taking turns for half a day each.
When Miss Evil Dragon was working, she put the dragon egg on her desk.
The little dragon cub only allowed its mother to touch it.
When visiting envoys got a little closer, the little dragon cub would push the dragon egg and shake it around with its tender dragon claws, almost rolling itself off the high table.
Miss Evil Dragon drank coffee and pointed at the dragon egg with one finger:
“Why is this little thing so grumpy? It’s not even half as good as your mother.”
The little dragon cub thought that Miss Evil Dragon was comforting it and pushed the eggshell into its mother’s arms.
Miss Evil Dragon thought of Long Ling and couldn’t help but said: “Little clingy thing.”
She held the dragon egg on her lap, approving documents.
The little dragon cub was surrounded by its mother’s warm breath and didn’t make any noise at all.
Long Ling and Miss Evil Dragon had lunch together, and in the afternoon, she took the dragon cub.
The little dragon cub relied on being a round egg and secretly rolled off the cushion on the chair while Long Ling was making bread dough.
Long Ling’s hands were covered with flour.
Hearing the sound of the dragon egg falling, she was startled and quickly put down what she was doing.
She turned her head and saw that the dragon egg was rolling faster and faster, like an arrow leaving the string.
She accidentally knocked over a trash can.
Fortunately, the dragon egg was hard enough and was not damaged at all.
Long Ling was about to pick up the little dragon cub when the dragon egg turned back and stumbled back to Long Ling’s feet.
It felt like a little cub hugging her calf.
Long Ling picked up the dragon egg and removed the dry yellow leaves that had accidentally stuck to the dragon egg.
She turned on the faucet, washed the dragon egg while asking in a gentle voice: “Whose dirty treasure are you?”
The little dragon cub knew that it had returned to its mother’s arms and was being washed by its mother. It was so well-behaved that it curled up its little feet in the dragon egg.
Long Ling thought it was her own cub and smiled: “My dirty baby, is that right?”
Even though she knew that the little dragon cub couldn’t speak yet, Long Ling could already imagine what her cute baby would say.
After washing the dragon egg, she found a clean soft cloth from the cupboard and wiped the eggshell clean.
The water stains on the surface of the eggshell were quickly wiped off.
After being exposed to the sun, it was a clean dragon egg again, and the eggshell was full of the smell of sunshine.
This time Long Ling placed the dragon egg on the kitchen counter in a visible position, washed her hands again, kneaded the bread dough, and began to process the walnuts for the dessert bread.
Long Ling picked up the nutcracker, and just as she was about to crack open the walnuts, the dragon egg immediately jumped onto the walnuts.
With a few clicks, a large area of walnuts was crushed, and there was no need to cut the walnut pieces.
Long Ling quickly picked up the dragon egg, patted off the fruit shells, and was very surprised:
“Our baby is so amazing. It can also peel walnuts. When we send desserts to your mother later, we’ll say it was made by our baby, okay?”
The little dragon cub seemed to like the cracking sound of collisions. After Long Ling picked it up, the dragon egg swayed left and right in Long Ling’s hand, wanting to continue jumping down to crush the walnut shell residue.
Long Ling found a bamboo-woven basket, covered the dragon egg, and collected the walnut kernels and roasted them in the oven.
She didn’t throw away the walnut residue, knowing that the little dragon cub liked to play with it.
She put the walnut residue together and piled it into a small pile, picked out some large and sharp walnut shells inside, and then put the dragon egg on it.
The dragon egg itself was sturdy enough.
After the little dragon cub tentatively shook the dragon egg, it heard the cracking sound again and was very happy.
Long Ling’s eyes curved, this may be the nature of children.
Some little dragon cubs like quiet, and some like movement. It’s good to be lively.
According to the guide for raising cubs that Long Ling often read, little dragon cubs have already begun to explore the world in the dragon egg.
The rustling sound of the dragon egg touching objects can effectively train the cub’s hearing.
Suddenly, a light sound came from the oven, and the walnuts were baked, emitting a rich roasted aroma.
Long Ling put the baked walnut pieces into the dough.
After kneading it, she waited for the bread to rise, and then coated the surface with a layer of crushed walnuts and baked it in the oven.
The little dragon cub in the dragon egg was playing with the crushed walnut residue.
Long Ling waited for the bread to bake, supported her cheeks with her hands, and quietly watched the playful little dragon cub.
The current time is too beautiful. Even watching the little dragon cub crush the walnut residue, Long Ling didn’t feel bored.
She could stay with the little dragon cub for a long time with all her attention.
The little dragon cub was a child after all.
After playing for a while, it was tired, and the dragon egg swayed less and less.
The smile in Long Ling’s eyes deepened, and her gentle palm gently stroked the dragon egg. The little dragon cub felt its mother’s breath and soon fell asleep.
She took out the baking tray with the baked bread, squeezed in fragrant cream, packed each fragrant bread, and put it in the oiled paper in the bamboo basket.
There was still some space in the bamboo basket, Long Ling put the dragon egg in, and put a very cute lace-edged baby hat on the dragon egg.
Originally, preparing these was almost enough, but there were still some drinks missing, so she made a strawberry-flavored milkshake, put it in a glass jar, and hung it in a small bamboo basket after covering it.
Long Ling also put on a blue hat: “Okay, we can go find your mother now.”
The dessert shop where Long Ling is now is not far from the Gris Harbor office.
She can walk there, but because she has the dragon egg with her, she still chooses to travel by carriage for safety.
The coachman of the carriage was still the one she used when she first came to the Ilidari Manor, but now he had changed to a carriage like Miss Evil Dragon’s, which was more convenient for entering and exiting the Gris Harbor government office.
The carriage was also guarded by dragon guards.
Before reaching the gate of the government office, the gate was opened by the guards in advance.
It was not yet time to get off work, and only a few staff members were carrying briefcases and coming out of the government office.
Long Ling got out of the carriage and waited for Miss Evil Dragon to come under a lush sycamore tree.
The leaves rustled, she held the small bamboo basket with the dragon egg and counted how many floor tiles were nearby.
Before she finished counting, black high heels appeared in front of her.
It was like a sudden surprise.
Miss Evil Dragon walked towards her, saw Long Ling’s sweet smile, and couldn’t help but curl her red lips: “Finally here, I miss you and the baby so much.”
Long Ling smiled: “Then guess where the baby is?”
Miss Evil Dragon looked at the small basket she was carrying: “Did you put the baby in the small bamboo basket?”
Long Ling opened the small bamboo basket and handed the fragrant buns and dragon egg to Miss Evil Dragon to see: “Yes, isn’t the baby cute today?”
Miss Evil Dragon smelled the fragrance of the buns and hugged the dragon egg and kissed it: “Cute, what kind of filling did you make today?”
She couldn’t help but kiss Long Ling’s cheek again.
There were Miss Evil Dragon’s subordinates passing by nearby, Long Ling’s eyes widened and she said in surprise:
“Why are you kissing me here? What if someone sees us?”
Miss Evil Dragon didn’t care: “If they see us, they see us. We’re married, so what’s wrong with a kiss?”
Seeing that she was about to kiss her again, Long Ling quickly took a step back: “You’re the Duchess, you can’t kiss here.”
Miss Evil Dragon deliberately teased her: “They wouldn’t dare to say anything.”
Long Ling immediately stuffed the bamboo basket into Miss Evil Dragon’s hands: “Let’s eat the buns first.”
