Chapter 856: A Battlefield Filled With Roses

"It feels like it's been a while since we last spent some quality time like this," Lily said as she laid her head on Ethan's back."

"Indeed," Ethan replied as he navigated his Wind Dance to fly to Limeburgh Town.

Since it was the weekend, and they had no classes, Ethan finally had time to spend time with his lovely wife, whom he missed very much.

Ethan was certain that if there was an opportunity to travel back in time and tell his younger self that his first wife would be Lily, he believed that the younger Ethan would think that he was just joking.

Perhaps, feeling that her husband was thinking about something, Lily playfully whispered in his ears.

"What are you thinking right now?" Lily asked.

"I'm thinking that I'm very lucky to have a very beautiful, loving wife like you, Lily," Ethan replied. "I'm glad I married you."

Lily didn't say anything, but she hugged her husband tighter because she thought the same. She also considered herself very lucky for marrying Ethan and becoming his first wife.

Although she felt a little bit guilty for going ahead of the other girls, she didn't regret marrying him first and choosing him as her partner for life.

When they arrived at Limeburgh Town, the two walked hand in hand. They headed to the clothing store, for Lily had mentioned that she wanted to buy new clothes to wear.

While there was nothing wrong with this statement, Ethan still found it quite surprising that Lily wanted to buy new clothes.

He was familiar with his wife, and she knew how she didn't particularly like showing off to other people.

Her clothes were never the expensive kind that nobles typically wear. It was just that she was very cute, so everything looked good on her.

Even if she were to only wear clothes made of leaves, she would still stand out from the crowd due to how charming she was.

(E/N: Of course, she'll stand out. She'd be the only one wearing leaves.)

"I have a favor to ask, Ethan," Lily said.

"Anything for you, Lily," Ethan replied in a heartbeat.

"Well, since you insist, I'd like your help in choosing the clothes that look good on me. Can you help me with that?"

"It will be my pleasure. I'll make sure to pick clothes that will make you even cuter."

"Thank you. No take backs, okay?"

"No take backs."

The young man was more than happy to pick clothes for his wife, and he was even looking forward to it.

But when he saw where Lily was taking him, he felt like he was about to head to the battlefield.

A battlefield filled with roses.

Henrietta's Lingerie Boutique.

"Let's go inside," Lily said with a mischievous smile on her face as she dragged the young man into the store.

Ethan didn't know if he should feel happy, or embarrassed that his wife was taking him to such a place.

But after entering the store, he noticed that there were many ladies inside.

Some of these ladies were even students in the academy, which made Ethan very conscious. Of course, the students were also very surprised to see Ethan enter such a store. But after recognizing Lily, who was with him, their faces flushed in understanding.

"Oh my! It seems that rumors of the two of them being married is true," one of the young ladies whispered to her friend.

"Maybe they're here to spice up their evenings together?" the young lady's friend replied. "I heard that some men are into sexy lingeries."

"True. Still, I'm feeling a bit envious of them."

"Right. There are many handsome guys in the academy, but most of them are already taken." "I know, right?"

The ladies inside the boutique would throw glances at Ethan from time to time, but the young man pretended that he wasn't aware of them.

He focused all his attention on the type of "clothes" that his wife was choosing. Based on his observation, they all seem daring in terms of design.

After choosing five sets of clothes, Lily dragged Ethan in front of the dressing room and asked him to wait until he tried them on.

While waiting, he noticed that some of the young ladies from the academy moved to the clothing racks behind him.

Clearly, they wanted to see what kind of lingerie Lily chose for future reference.

Suddenly, the curtain of Lily's dressing room parted, showing the young lady wearing a sexy, white chiffon lingerie set with frills.

Ethan almost staggered at the sheer impact of innocence and sexiness combined together, making him look at his wife in a daze.

Seeing his reaction, a sweet smile appeared on Lily's face. With his reaction, she no longer needed to ask Ethan whether he liked it or not.

Seeing his flushed face, it was very obvious that he liked it very much. But since she still wanted to hear it from his own lips, she decided to ask him how she looked.

"Well, how is it?" Lily asked.

"It's very good," Ethan replied before he could even stop himself. "It looks very good on you,

Lily."

Hearing her answer, the smile on her face widened as she once again closed the curtain to try the other set of clothes that she had chosen.

The young ladies, who saw Lily's two-piece lingerie, make sure to remember its design so that they could also purchase it later.

"I see. So he likes those kinds of clothes," a young lady whispered to her friend.

"If that works on Ethan, it will definitely work on the other guys," the young lady's friend replied. "But I have to admit... as a girl myself, even I find Lily in those clothes quite

attractive."

"I feel you."

Half an hour later, Ethan and Lily left the Lingerie Boutique, carrying several bags of clothes.

"Since they are cleaned by magic, I'll wear the one you liked the most later," Lily whispered in Ethan's ears after they left the store, making the young man give his wife a heated glance. Seeing his reaction, Lily gave the young man's hand a light squeeze before she allowed him to store the things they bought inside his storage ring.

The two continued their date, and they both had a good time.

They watched a theater play, had lunch in one of the most popular restaurants in Limeburgh Town, and watched the sunset together while renting a boat in the lake.

The two then had a candle light dinner before heading to the inn they usually stayed at whenever they went to Limeburgh Town.

Just like she promised earlier, Lily wore the lingerie that Ethan liked the most earlier, then teased her husband with her young and charming body until he was no longer able to hold back and wrapped her in his embrace.

Lily sighed as soon as Ethan and her became one because it had been a while since they shared

an intimate moment together.

But before the young man could even start to move his hips, the young lady raised her hand

and caressed the side of his face.

"I forgot to bring my contraceptive potion," Lily said. "But today is a safe day, so..."

Ethan nodded in understanding before kissing her lips.

"You better take it when we return to the academy tomorrow," Ethan replied after their kiss

ended. "Okay?"

"Un," Lily replied. "I love you, Ethan."

"I love you too, Lily." Ethan said as he once again kissed her lips.

The night was still young, and both of them wanted nothing more than to once again reaffirm

their strong feelings for each other.

Soon, Lily's soft sighs spread inside the room as Ethan filled her heart and her body with his

love.
