Chapter 374 A Tiger in the Heart, A Rose in the Hand
They flew through the air, from high to low, and then swooped down into the flower field.
Many lily-of-the-valley flowers were pressed down under He Suining, who clutched her stomach and giggled.
In the blink of an eye, he was pinned down by a giant dragon.
She was unusually flustered, covering the dragon's massive face with her hands and pleading, "Please, I don't have that kind of hobby."
The dragon opened its mouth and mocked her, "What on earth is going on in your head?"
He Suining blushed; it certainly wasn't something innocent.
The dragon turned its head and looked at the blooming lily of the valley beside it.
It stretched out its claws.
The claws appeared enormous compared to the delicate flowers beside them.
He Suining also turned her head.
Watching the dragon's claws gently pluck a flower, she suddenly thought of a saying—"A tiger in the heart, yet a rose in the hand."
Even if the dragon before him is a fearsome or awe-inspiring creature, he still possesses a gentle, tender, and delicate side.
However, not everyone can see this side of things.
With trembling hands, he plucked the lily of the valley flower. Compared to a human hand, it was definitely much more difficult, but after a while, he managed to pick it.
The dragon's claws stretched out in front of her, and he seemed to be smiling, though his face was hard to read. "This is for you, my girl."
He Suining took the lily of the valley flower and gently smelled it under her nose.
The dragon moved to the side, its tail wrapping around her waist.
The afternoon sun wasn't too scorching; it was warm yet gentle, perfect for making one drowsy.
They lay quietly in the flower field, neither of them speaking, the only sound being each other's breathing.
But everything was wonderful.
He Suining cherishes this hard-won peaceful life very much.
She turned around, reached out and grasped the dragon's claw, and slowly drifted into a deep sleep.
She was kept up by Yitian all night; it's amazing she even managed to get up.
The dragon stood guard quietly.
Like guarding the most precious treasure, their one red and one black eyes radiated endless tenderness...

In the days that followed, Yitian kept his promise and took her to travel around the mortal world.
They visited many places and tried local delicacies. Some were delicious, while others were disappointing. They even tried camping along the way, which made for a wonderful experience.
One of He Suining's stops was Azure Star.
Although she never said it, Yitian knew that humans are creatures who like to reminisce about the past, and that they have a deep affection for their hometown.
So one day, Yitian brought He Suining back to Blue Star.
Queen Yan Hua has ruled the Blue Star for many years and has managed to keep it well-organized.
Because the Zerg Queen was killed by He Suining, it will take the Zerg hundreds of years to develop again. During these hundreds of years, at least Azure Star will be safe.
One generation after another.
He Suining and Yitian still looked very young.
Of course she will get old.
Yitian is not truly immortal, and moreover, he cannot ascend to the God Realm. If it weren't for the fact that the dragon's bloodline cannot be taken away, he would be just like an ordinary human now, with a lifespan even shorter than He Suining's.
Therefore, He Suining was very fortunate that when he suffered the backlash, his bloodline still protected him.
Otherwise, she would feel extremely guilty.
"Hello."
A girl wearing a floral dress and a pretty flower crown walked over.
Holding a flyer in his hand.
She was very, very young and clearly didn't recognize He Suining. "Excuse me, are you tourists from out of town? There's a beer festival tonight, with singing and dancing. Would you like to join us?"
The girl craned her neck and strained to see Yitian's face.
Although he was handsome, he looked fierce.
Startled, she shrank back and took two steps toward He Suining. "It's only 300 interstellar coins per person, very cheap, and includes food and drinks."
He Suining knew about the Beer Festival, a traditional festival of Azure Star.
But as the Goddess of War, she couldn't attend such festivals. It was Rose's order, and now that I think about it, it was to keep her away from the common people.
She took out her wallet, and the girl's eyes lit up instantly.
Their smiles became even brighter.
Before she could even take out her money, Yi Tian had already reached out his hand, holding a card that could be obtained from Azure Star, which could be swiped to deduct the money.
The girl seemed afraid the two would regret it, so she quickly swiped the card and gave them bracelets as a symbol of their identity. The bracelets were made of a special flower from the Azure Star and smelled somewhat like osmanthus flowers from the mortal world.
"The event starts at 7 p.m., welcome everyone, bye-bye."
The girl, clutching the flyers in her hand, ran to the next person and continued her enthusiastic sales pitch.
He Suining took advantage of this time to continue strolling around with Yitian.
I'd like to add a side note: "Why don't you just let me pay for it once?"
"No need." Yi Tian was quite domineering about this.
From the moment they first went to the mortal realm, he had been dedicated to paying He Suining.
From a cup of milk tea to tickets to plays, gem exhibitions, and even the cost of buying gems, she paid for everything.
This explains what He Suining's wallet looked like when it came out.
It's still the same as it is now.
Yitian thoroughly enjoys spending money on He Suining, especially when he sees the smile on her face; it makes him feel very happy.
He stroked He Suining's curly hair, his fingers twirling her soft curls. "As long as I'm here, you won't spend a single penny."
He Suining burst out laughing and fell into his arms, saying, "You're so domineering."
Is this what "The Pure-Hearted, Domineering Dragon Falls in Love with Me" is all about?
They chatted and laughed, and bought some more things.
7 p.m.
He Suining and Yi Tian arrived at the beach on time for the beer festival.
Upon arriving at the entrance, there were many young and fashionable girls doing makeup for tourists from afar.
They also put flower garlands on tourists' heads for free.
He Suining and Yitian also inevitably had to wear them.
Yitian took out his phone and took many photos of her, unable to put them down.
Long tables were set up around the beach, with beer, juice and specialty drinks on one side, and delicious food on the other.
He Suining picked up the juice and took two sips when the music suddenly started playing.
The atmosphere was quite lively, with young couples dancing together and even kissing.
In a short period of time, He Suining also saw someone confess their feelings.
The people around them were egging them on.
"Let's go." Yi Tian was quite proactive tonight, which surprised He Suining.
Back in the mortal realm, he always disliked things like dancing.
She later discovered that he couldn't dance and was even a bit clumsy.
But this is also a cute little flaw.
Yi Tian pulled He Sui Ning to the center of the crowd dancing.
She wrapped her arms around Yitian's neck, and they moved together to the music.
