Chapter 135: Chapter 135: Bewitching

Xie Guixue rarely communicates with outsiders, and he’s somewhat unaccustomed to it.

But this is her home, and he will adapt.

After a pause, he added, "Everyone doesn’t need to worry about me; I can do these things."

After the argument just now while everyone was working, he came out of the room, intending to help out and quickly integrate into this family.

Shen Ci’an looked at Xie Guixue with an inquisitive gaze, his narrow eyes deepening in color.

This Young Master Xie’s true form must be quite unique.

And the string of crystal stones hanging on the room curtain emitted a bright, dazzling luster in the sunlight, indicating an unusual family background.

Surname Xie!

Are they from the Xie Family in the Frost State?

The Xie Family of the millennium-old lineage?

Shen Ci’an’s slender eye raised slightly; things were becoming more and more interesting.

That woman, who exhausted all means, had her Beast Husband wanting to leave one by one.

Now, even people from the Xie Family are willing to be her Beast Husband.

This Young Master Xie is likely not an ordinary member of the Xie Family; he might be the legendary Young Master Xie.

The Family Head of the Xie Family is a She-beast, and throughout the generations, they’ve always been female Family Heads, but now the Family Head defies all opposition to make her son the heir.

But a big family like the Xie Family...

Shen Ci’an’s indifferent crimson lips curved into a smile, and excessive delicacy and charm filled his face, giving it an evil allure, "Young Master Xie’s bearing is distinctive, certainly not common in origin."

"Young Master Xie should be the family treasure, right?"

"I just wonder if Young Master Xie’s family agrees with Young Master Xie being with his wife."

Upon hearing this, Hua Linye and the others stiffened.

Mei Qingchen wasn’t immune either; he paused his actions and turned to look at Shen Ci’an.

This man was truly bold, speaking to Young Master Xie like this.

That’s the Beast Husband personally chosen by the wife, who saved the wife, holding special significance to her.

His cool demeanor, silent and reserved, could swiftly turn to action when words fail.

Previously, Shen Ci’an even fought with Young Master Xie over the wife.

Xie Guixue’s fingers gently twitched, and the stone in his hand instantly crumbled into soil, "My wife, no one can interfere."

"But as for Mr. Shen, your ex-fiancée has been exiled to a nearby tribe."

After saying this, Xie Guixue’s presence grew even colder.

The smile at Shen Ci’an’s lip deepened, carrying a hint of danger.

Xie Guixue’s gaze, icy as a glacier, became even colder.

The palpable tension made Wen Nanxi rub her brow in frustration, intending to separate the two.

Just then, Su Muyao approached, smiling brightly in the sunlight.

Her excessively beautiful face, her smile was even more radiant than the sun.

"Everyone’s working hard, thank you."

"I’ve just made some soy milk; everyone must try it, one bowl each."

"I’ll make tofu dishes for dinner tonight, a new type of food."

Su Muyao carried a tray with five bowls of soy milk on it.

The bowl meant for Xiao Jihan had already been delivered; Xiao Jihan drank it and thought it was delicious.

She felt relieved.

Of course, as Su Muyao came over, she sensed the atmosphere wasn’t right.

She felt a bit troubled.

With so many people in the backyard, she didn’t know how to manage.

She didn’t know how the backyard ended up with so many Beast Husbands.

She had absolutely no experience.

She could only remind, "No fighting; if you fight, there’ll be no dinner."

Shen Ci’an’s aura restrained immediately, as he lazily approached and teased, "Wife, don’t worry; we are very united. How could we fight?"

"There’s no need for the wife to serve personally; I can do it."

As he spoke, Shen Ci’an reached out to take the bowl from Su Muyao, and whether intentionally or not, his fingers faintly touched hers.

As if deliberately hooking her fingers, a creepy numbness rose from her fingertips.

Su Muyao’s nerves jolted; she quickly looked up at him.

Suddenly meeting those deep and mysterious eyes, full of wickedness.

He then brazenly examined his fingers in front of Su Muyao, teasingly saying, "The wife’s fingers are still wet!"

Su Muyao’s eyes widened instantly.

His tone and expression hardly seemed to refer to fingers.

"Ahem, ahem..."

Shen Ci’an took another sip of soy milk, his narrow eyes locking onto Su Muyao’s face inch by inch, raspy and mysterious, "It’s truly sweet, makes one want to drink more."

Su Muyao’s mouth twitched; she hurriedly interrupted him, saying, "I’ll leave it here; you can help yourselves, drink while it’s hot."

She feared that if she stayed any longer, she wouldn’t know what strange tricks Shen Ci’an would pull.

Such suggestive words came too easily.

She didn’t want to listen.

Watching Su Muyao quickly leave, Shen Ci’an chuckled softly, then reached out a hand and examined it carefully.

The fingering contact had somehow brought forth warmth from the touch.

A unique feeling.

He didn’t mind.

Hua Linye’s fox-like eyes took on a sharp edge, full of displeasure, "What did you just do? You scared the wife away."

He hadn’t even had the chance to look at the wife enough or chat with her, yet Shen Ci’an had scared her away.

Shen Ci’an’s smile turned even more bewitching, "How could it be fear? The wife was only shy."

Mei Qingchen looked at Hua Linye and said, "You’re a Fox Beastman, yet not as skilled in charming people as a Blood Clan Beastman."

Anyway, he wanted to learn, but that wasn’t his style.

But Hua Linye could surpass Shen Ci’an.

Even though he didn’t want to see Hua Linye and the wife interact, looking at Shen Ci’an’s flamboyant manner made him want to strike.

He wanted to bash his head, but unfortunately, he couldn’t beat him now.

Hua Linye was irritated by Mei Qingchen’s words, and he didn’t control his strength, causing the wooden piece to shatter into bits. He said gravely, "We’re completely different, Fox Clan and Blood Clan."

"Even the superpowers we cultivate are entirely different."

They were honest and straightforward, while Blood Clan Beastmen were strangely unpredictable and a bit dark.

However, the Fox Clan excelled in illusion techniques; when his strength grew, he would use his clan’s illusion techniques for combat.

But he couldn’t bear to use illusion techniques on his wife.

Though Shen Ci’an held the wife immobile before, he suspected he used a Blood Clan charm technique on her.

It’s a rather eerie magic that only pure-blooded Blood Clan Beastmen can perform.

And the stronger one’s power, the stronger the charm technique, easily capable of ensnaring people.

Legend has it that Blood Clan Beastmen are skilled at enchanting hearts, so the Shen Family Master wants to form alliances with him because they think he possesses that ability.

Shen Ci’an said with a half-smile, "Indeed, the Fox Beastmen disdain using the same methods I do. As long as the wife likes it, I can use more ways... to bring joy to the wife..."

As he spoke, Shen Ci’an conjured red vines in his hands, hinting at a deeper meaning.

"You!"

Hua Linye felt himself losing control, about to explode; his fox-like eyes surged with anger.

Wen Nanxi pinched her brow, speaking calmly, "Are you certain you want to fight?"

"Don’t forget what the wife said."

"And Shen Ci’an, even if the room isn’t built by evening, you can’t share one with the wife."

"As long as she’s unwilling, no one can force her to do anything."

"So don’t even think about stalling."

Wen Nanxi’s words forced everyone to settle down.

Resignedly continuing their work.

...

Su Muyao ran quickly, somewhat absent-mindedly, into the kitchen, and accidentally ran into Xiao Jihan’s arms.

Her nose hurt instantly.

She hadn’t expected Xiao Jihan’s muscle beneath his clothes to be so firm.
