Chapter 3: I bought a very sexy swimsuit
In the afternoon, as agreed, Leon accompanied Rosvitha to the Silver Dragon tribe to buy a new swimsuit. To be honest, although he had been a prince in the Silver Dragon tribe for more than a year, it seemed that he had never gone shopping with Rosvitha in the tribe before.
Usually, when they needed to buy something for outdoor use, they would directly go to Sky City.
There, Leon was not a prince, and Rosvitha was not the Silver Dragon Queen. In the eyes of most dragonkind, they were just an ordinary couple with two lovely daughters.
So, outside, they didn’t have to pretend to be affectionate, anyway, there weren’t many acquaintances. But at home, it was different.
If they went out together, they had to be careful everywhere, to let the people of the Silver Dragon tribe feel the strong love between the Queen and the Prince. In simple terms, they had to spread the dog food—even if it was fake, it had to be spread.
But fortunately, they had maintained this false family for so long, and the couple were both very good at it.
On the quiet path from the Silver Dragon Temple to the tribe, the couple had already tacitly held hands.
Actually, Rosvitha quite liked holding hands with Leon, or rather, liked the feeling of being touched by his broad palm. Slightly rough, weather-beaten palms were those of a warrior, and only when touched by such hands did Rosvitha feel truly conquered.
Of course, most importantly, this guy’s hands were always warm.
Just right to neutralize her naturally cold body.
Do you still remember last winter? At that time, Rosvitha had just become pregnant with Little Light. Despite being well-fed and taken care of, her cold body issue remained unresolved.
Even under the covers, her hands and feet would occasionally be icy. So, at times like these, Leon was her warm baby on call.
Come on, cuddling with someone who complains about you being a bother, but then earnestly comes to warm you up, that’s seriously amazing!
And he’s even a warm baby with abs. Hmm, not only warm, but his touch is also amazing.
Thinking back on this, Rosvitha couldn’t help but smile lightly. Leon looked at the mother dragon beside him with a puzzled expression.
What’s wrong, walking along and laughing to yourself? Sensing Leon’s gaze, Rosvitha quickly suppressed her smile, put on a straight face, and said lightly, ‘What are you looking at?’
‘You just laughed like a young girl on her first date,’ Leon’s assessment was always spot-on.
‘How do you know what a girl on her first date looks like? Have you dated anyone besides me?’ Of course, the queen had a knack for pinpointing the key points.
‘Of course, why is that not allowed? You manage the heavens and the earth, and now you’re going to manage who I’ve dated?’
Before meeting Rosvitha, General Leon had been single for twenty years since birth, let alone dating girls. At that time, he was so ruthless that he considered rejecting other girls’ confessions a waste of time, besides his martial aunt, he had never been out alone with any other woman.
But since this Silver Dragon Vinegar Queen wanted to pick a fight for no reason, Leon would just play along.”
Anyway, it wasn’t him being jealous.
Rosvitha squinted at him.
She knew the dog of a man was boasting again, but she couldn’t be bothered to burst his bubble, so she just hummed, “The Dragon Slayer hero has so many fangirls, it’s only natural to pick one for a date. How could I dare to control you?”
Leon sniffed, looking serious. “Can you smell it?”
“Smell what?”
“A strong smell of vinegar.”
Rosvitha paused, arched her eyebrows elegantly, then snorted coldly, “Are you saying I’m jealous again? I’m not a vinegar jar.”
“Aren’t you?”
“I’m not.” She emphasized each word with conviction.
“Oh, if you say so.”
If the vinegar queen said so, Leon would just comply.
Rosvitha didn’t continue arguing with him because, based on past experience, if she did, she would definitely fall into Leon’s logical trap.
It was like when someone labeled you as tsundere; regardless of whether you were or not, once the label was out there, you were already branded as one.
So, rather than wasting saliva arguing with the dog of a man, it was better to save some for arguing about other things later in the evening.
The couple arrived at the Silver Dragon tribe. Although the variety of goods here was not as diverse as in Sky City, they could still find what they needed. The first thing they went to buy, of course, was the swimsuit.
Noia and Muen’s swimsuits didn’t need replacing. This time, they came mainly to buy Rosvitha, a swimsuit that wouldn’t turn into lingerie at the slightest contact with water.
Upon entering the store, the female boss immediately recognized the presence of their queen and hurriedly signaled the shop assistants to come forward to greet them. They lined up to welcome them, all bowing respectfully—
But Rosvitha promptly halted their enthusiastic display.
“You can carry on with your tasks. The prince and I will just browse around. We’ll call you if we need anything.”
She never liked such bustling scenes, and every time she went on a covert visit, she tried to keep it as low-key as possible. After the shop assistants nodded in acknowledgment and returned to their respective posts, the couple headed straight to the ladies’ swimsuit section.
To be fair, the Silver Dragons’ aesthetics were quite accommodating, offering a wide range of styles from conservative to more revealing.
Rosvitha picked out a black swimsuit with a slightly sexy style, pinching the thin straps and assessing it in front of herself before turning to Leon. “What do you think of this one?”
Leon squinted at the pitifully scanty fabric of the swimsuit and shook his head.
“Not good.”
“Alright, then how about this one?” Rosvitha swapped it for a similar style but in a different color. Of course, the fabric remained minimal.
Clearing his throat lightly, Leon repeated, “Still not good.”
Rosvitha smirked almost imperceptibly and then chose another swimsuit. It was still hot and sexy in style, just holding it in her hand, one could imagine how stunning she would look wearing it. But precisely because of this, Leon’s assessment remained—
“Not good.”
Setting down the swimsuit, Rosvitha tilted her head. “Still not good? But it accentuates the figure so well.”
Leon scratched his nose and hummed, “Just not good…”
“Heh, human aesthetics are really outdated.”
“Come on, this isn’t even about aesthetics, okay?”
“Then what is it about?”
“It’s… it’s…”
Watching the dog of a man stuttering and hesitating, Rosvitha’s smile grew more pronounced. She held the sexy swimsuit and slowly approached Leon, watching his slightly reddening face, and lowered her voice, “Oh, I know now.
You’re afraid that if I wear this kind of swimsuit, you won’t be able to control your feelings for me, and then you’ll end up confessing romantically by the seaside, and if you accidentally light up the dragon mark… tsk tsk tsk~”
Rosvitha tiptoed, rubbing against his ear, “It’s okay, hubby, as long as you say you want to see it, I’ll buy it and then wear it for you privately.”
Leon quickly stepped back, “I don’t want to see it. Wear whatever you want, I don’t care.”
“Alright, it seems like hubby doesn’t like me wearing this kind of swimsuit, so I’ll buy one with a bit more fabric.”
With that, Rosvitha picked out a one-piece swimsuit that only exposed a bit of her collarbone and back, sealing off her extraordinary figure completely.
Where’s the bit more fabric she was talking about? This was clearly a billion times more!
But Leon didn’t feel any regret. If that mother dragon had really bought the sexy style, they might end up getting infatuated all over again. That was a full-on workout, and Leon didn’t want to use up all his energy on that task.
Even though they were already parents of three children, they still had to exercise some restraint in their daily lives.
Rosvitha picked out the swimsuit and had it wrapped up by the store staff, while Leon stepped out of the shop early and waited for her at the door. But after a few minutes, Rosvitha emerged.
“Why did it take so long?”
“Oh, nothing much, just looked at some other things. Let’s go buy some sunscreen.”
“Okay.”
The afternoon quickly passed, and the couple bought everything they needed for their trip to the beach. This vacation was for fulfilling their previous promises to their daughters and to give Leon and Rosvitha some relief after the events in the empire.
But most importantly, it was to make Noia trust her parents’ love more. Leon wanted her to understand that her mom and dad would never leave her.
They call it a false family but it’s really not that anymore. They are still too stubborn, just tsundere to the core. I suspect Rosvitha secretly bought more than one swimsuit, for herself and Leon. Fourth baby when?
