My Wife is an Evil Dragon-Chapter 17

Chapter 17: Humans Offering Tribute to Me
Xia Li bought a lot of things in the daily necessities area on the first floor of the supermarket.
Toothbrushes, toothpaste, towels, slippers… these were all daily necessities prepared for Lucia.
Xia Li was thinking about what else was missing.
It was the first time a girl had lived in his house, and he didn’t know what kind of things a little girl like Lucia needed in her daily life……
Speaking of which, the Dragon Race has such strong resistance and is so durable, there is no need to treat this evil dragon, Lucia, like a delicate flower. It should be fine to treat her as a boy, right?
However, doing so would be a disservice to the evil dragon’s fair, beautiful, and soft little face.
Xia Li suddenly remembered that girls need things like skincare products, but when he came to the skincare product shelves and saw the prices on them, he found that raising an evil dragon poorly wasn’t a bad thing.
In the end, he took a bottle of baby cream that cost 30 yuan and pushed his shopping cart to the shelf where the toilet paper was placed.
After simply replenishing some daily necessities, Xia Li stared at the feminine products at the back of the toilet paper shelf for a long time.
Sanitary… pads.
When Xia Li saw these three words, he was so nervous that his throat tightened.
Does the Dragon Race… have periods?
As a dragon slayer on Azure Continent, Xia Li had never heard of such a thing.
However, since her current body structure was completely that of a human female, her physiological structure must also be……
Xia Li secretly glanced at Lucia, who was following behind him.
Lucia was looking around, and he didn’t know what was going on in her head. She looked up at the light bulb and then at the things on the shelves. When someone approached with a shopping cart, she would walk around the shelves until she got rid of that person, and then she would stop.
Xia Li looked at the evil dragon who was playing hide-and-seek with the air and then looked away.
Seeing how silly she was… it would probably be useless to ask.
Of course, Xia Li was too embarrassed to ask.
In order to be prepared, Xia Li quickly grabbed one.
Anyway, he didn’t know the brand, so he just picked one with a moderate price.
Leaving the toilet paper area, Xia Li thought that since he was already at the mall, he might as well buy some kitchen utensils to take back.
He rarely ate at home before, but now there was Lucia……
Considering her appetite and cost-effectiveness, he would probably have to cook at home most of the time in the future.
Come to think of it, this guy had nothing to do every day anyway, so why not let her learn to cook, starting with being a cook.
If he really had to release her in the future, at least this evil dragon wouldn’t starve to death.
Thinking about this, Xia Li took a pair of children’s learning chopsticks and was about to turn around to ask Lucia what style she wanted when……
“Where’s the dragon?”
The evil dragon who had just been playing guerrilla warfare behind him suddenly disappeared.
Xia Li’s heart tightened.
It wasn’t that he was afraid of her getting lost in the mall.
There were surveillance cameras everywhere, and Lucia was such a big person, she definitely couldn’t get lost.
What Xia Li was most afraid of now was that she would run around and cause trouble.
If she did an “Evil Dragon Collision” and hit a shelf, he wouldn’t be able to afford to sell her even if he tried.
“Lucia!”
Xia Li shouted. At 1.8 meters tall, he could overlook most of the supermarket.
Soon, his eyes swept over the crowd of people, tall and short, and Xia Li’s gaze locked on the junction of the food area and the daily necessities area.
Lucia’s style was so different from the people around her ━ she looked like a delicate and cute little thing, so Xia Li saw her at a glance.
Walking over, Xia Li saw Lucia’s suspicious, bulging mouth from afar.
“Is there more?”
“Little sister, wait a moment, I’ll go cut you a few more pieces.”
Lucia stood in front of the shelf where they were giving out free samples of beef jerky, sweeping away all the small snacks in the small plate.
The supermarket sales lady was also kind-hearted. Seeing that the little girl was craving it so much, she quickly turned around and took two pieces of jerky to cut on the counter.
Lucia stared at the jerky, drooling.
Xia Li: “…”
◈◈◈
“Hey, Xia Li, this kind person is offering tribute to me.”
“…”
“She said these are all free!”
Lucia saw Xia Li coming to find her and quickly explained to him that these things were free.
As she spoke, she even offered the last small piece of jerky on her toothpick, wanting Xia Li to taste it too.
“Open your mouth~ open your mouth~”
Lucia pushed the beef jerky onto Xia Li’s lips, and Xia Li opened his mouth as if possessed. Lucia successfully fed him and asked him with a smile.
“How is it? Isn’t it delicious?”
“Girl, there are also spicy and five-spice flavors, try more.”
The sales lady probably also saw that Lucia was petite and cute, and she didn’t make any trouble standing in front of the tasting window, just stared at the jerky foolishly, so she was extra generous to Lucia. She cut a large piece of tasting jerky and put it in the small plate.
“Xia Li, you eat the spicy one, I’ll eat the five-spice one.” Lucia immediately started to arrange things.
“Sorry,” Xia Li ignored the evil dragon’s swaying little hand and smiled apologetically at the sales lady in the window.
“It’s okay, it’s okay, the little girl is delicate, it’s okay to let her try a few more pieces.” The sales lady said with a smile.
The word ‘delicate’ shouldn’t be used on a dragon.
This guy weighs over a hundred tons.
“…Give me half a catty, I want the five-spice flavor.” Xia Li said kindly.
Lucia beside him was still inhaling the jerky like a storm, unaware that Xia Li had already lost 60 yuan.
Beef jerky is 120 yuan a catty, half a catty is 60… This 60 is enough for them to eat for two days.
Xia Li thought of his completely deflated wallet and felt a pang of pain.
“These chopsticks, which kind do you want?”
Returning to the shelf selling daily necessities, Xia Li pointed to the row of children’s chopsticks.
If he directly let Lucia learn to use adult chopsticks, it would probably be a bit difficult, so Xia Li decided to start with children’s chopsticks.
Anyway, judging by Lucia’s small hands… she could totally use children’s chopsticks.
Xia Li thought this guy would choose the pink color that most girls couldn’t refuse, but she pointed to the white cat head chopsticks and said.
“I want this white one, it’s the same color as my dragon scales.”
After saying that, Lucia became a little sad. She couldn’t find a single dragon scale on her human body.
After buying the most basic necessities, Xia Li added some snacks to the shopping cart.
At this stage, Lucia hadn’t been poisoned by modern snacks. In her eyes, these colorful packages were all similar, so Xia Li could just pick what he liked to eat.
Finally, they went to the meat and vegetable area and bought two days’ worth of food, and the two pushed the cart to the self-checkout counter.
Xia Li taught Lucia how to scan the code, and Lucia learned quickly.
After hearing Xia Li say that the number on the display was the amount they had to pay, she would vigilantly glance at the price every time she scanned an item.
The Dragon Race’s math was terrible, but that didn’t stop her from reading numbers.
“Xia Li, this jerky actually costs 60 yuan!”
When Lucia saw the bright red number ’60’, her whole face froze.
“Yes.” Xia Li said helplessly.
“No, no, let’s return it to that human!”
Lucia reluctantly parted with the jerky.
She calculated that this small bag of jerky was enough to buy 1, 2, 3… anyway, a lot of fried rice cakes!
With that, the evil dragon was about to return with the jerky in her arms.
Xia Li reached out and stopped her.
“Come back, it’s already been cut, you can’t return it.”
