Seven Unfortunate Lifetimes (Love You Seven Times)

Chapter 37

“Between us, is there still a “you” and “me”? I scalp his fur, and the money that I get for it will be spent by us. I cut his meat and roast it; won’t that be eaten by us? Do you think it’s a fun joke to act up like this?!”

Chu Kong thought for a while and then he half turned to look at me. “Us?”

I was dazed and surprised. “Who else would it be?”

Hearing that answer, Chu Kong finally fully turned and looked at me. His mouth curved up, but he quickly suppressed it and, with a straight face, said, “Humph, alright, I’ll reluctantly let you cut it. Xiaoye wants the meat of the spine. You must not cut that part badly.”

This guy…

I didn’t even bother to scold someone who got angry every three days. Instead, I turned my attention to the long haired demon and circled around his body. I felt that I should cut him from his belly. I told Chu Kong, “Turn him over.”

Chu Kong was about to do it, when Zihui suddenly said, “I think…”

“There’s no part for you,” Chu Kong interrupted him and looked at him coldly. “Xiaoye is generous. I won’t bother with the past debt. Now, you must go and hide someplace far away. Don’t let xiaoye see you again.”

Zihui sighed. “What I want to say is that this is a demon. You eating it, isn’t that a bit…”

I gave him a strange look. “Otherwise, what do we do with it?”

Chu Kong also looked at Zihui strangely. “Otherwise, what do we do with it? This is a demon, not an animal. He guards this bloodthirsty spell; who knows how many people’s lives he has harmed. Eating it won’t be a loss.”

Chu Kong said it like it was the right thing to do. Staying in my company for so long had clearly done him some good; his level had greatly improved!

Chu Kong pulled up his sleeves. With a little strength, he turned the long haired demon over, letting the legs face the sky. I jumped on the long haired demon’s belly. Then, I stuck my hand out and said, “Knife.”

Chu Kong stretched his hand out at Zihui and said, “Knife.”

Zihui sighed. “I meant, eating something you don’t know isn’t a good habit.”

Still, while he spoke, he took out a dagger from his sleeve. He wanted to hand it to Chu Kong, but retracted his hand at the last second. Then, he said, “If you use my dagger, it should add at least a few safety measures to your cooking process…”

Chu Kong’s expression turned cold. I hurriedly went in front of Zihui and said, “En,en, good. Later, I’ll cut the front legs for you.”

Zihui willingly handed the dagger over.

The first cut would be in the middle of the demon’s collarbone. I raised my hand and was about to stab when the demon managed to say, “Broke…the bloodthirsty spell, the lord…will not…let you off.”

I turned and exchanged a look with Chu Kong. Then I poked the demon’s neck with the tip of the dagger. “Come on, tell me honestly. Who is your lord? Where does he live?”

The demon no longer said anything. I exchanged a look again with Chu Kong. Chu Kong stroked his chin and said, “If he’s acting like this, someone must’ve put him under a spell. We won’t get anything from him. Just kill and eat it.”

“Wait,” Zihui shouted. “You…really want to eat it? I thought you were just simply threatening it…”

I glanced at Zihui. “Do I look like I’m pretending?”
