Chapter 36: Chapter 36: Delicate and Charming

Xiao Jihan thought of what Su Muyao did in the Beast Emperor City, his expression turned restrained, hiding the emotions in his eyes.

Mei Qingchen thought of Su Muyao’s vicious and stupid actions, and couldn’t forgive or let go.

"Back then, most of our dowry was squandered by her. If we hadn’t reacted in time, not a single crystal coin would be left."

"Even so, in her eyes, we were never good."

So now he wouldn’t give Su Muyao anything.

He didn’t even want to recall anything related to Su Muyao, otherwise, it would only make him so angry that his chest would hurt and he wouldn’t be able to sleep.

Xiao Jihan’s lips moved a bit, wanting to say something, but felt that no words had any persuasive power, they would only seem pale and weak.

After all, it was indeed what the wife did before.

Finally, Xiao Jihan said a sentence: "The wife said she would change."

"Three months later, she will give us a divorce letter and set us free."

Mei Qingchen’s enchanting phoenix eyes revealed a trace of cold exhaustion, his rose-like lips twitched, and he snorted: "This kind of trick, hasn’t she used it more than once, and you still believe it."

"No wonder your attitude towards her changed, it turns out it’s because of three months from now."

"I want to see if three months later, she will really set us free as she says."

Mei Qingchen wouldn’t believe anything Su Muyao said.

Xiao Jihan couldn’t say anything for Su Muyao either.

Because he wasn’t so sure she would really let them leave.

Although she changed a bit, they also feared she was up to her old tricks.

...

Hua Linye listened to Su Muyao talk about making crystal coins to buy daily necessities, and seemed to think of something, the light in his fox eyes flowed while something seemed to be separated in the depths of his gaze.

"I’ll first help the wife make some medicine."

Saying this, Hua Linye picked up some stones and began to use his superpower to make medicine.

Everyone had their own tasks, making it quite peaceful.

Su Muyao cooked her own medicine, left it for a while, when the temperature was right, she directly drank it.

No idea why, after drinking the medicine her body felt uncomfortable.

Su Muyao felt really unwell, but didn’t tell anyone.

She knew that even if she told, no one would believe her, instead they would think she’s up to tricks again.

Not even being pitied.

So she strongly went to freshen up herself, telling everyone: "Everyone, rest early, I’ll go rest now."

Saying this, she went to bed.

She still felt very unwell lying down.

She took her pulse and discovered it was the discomfort from drinking the detoxification medicine.

"System, I didn’t prescribe the wrong medicine, right?"

"Or are the herbs here different from what I know?"

Clearly, they were identical, no issue in the picking or preparation.

The Space System probed Su Muyao’s body, "Host, the detoxification medicine you prescribed is fine."

"It’s just the chronic poison in your body has been there too long, so drinking the detoxification medicine triggered some issues."

"Also Host, you were previously drugged with aphrodisiac, some remnants remain."

"In this detoxification, during the process, it may have disrupted the previous balance, responding to the remnants of the aphrodisiac, hence the discomfort."

Su Muyao paused, "Aphrodisiac?"

She vaguely remembered being deceived to drug Jiang Mochuan with aphrodisiac, hoping to cook rice into mature rice.

Unexpectedly, the cup was swapped, she ended up drinking the aphrodisiac herself.

The dose was quite fierce, she wanted to find a beast husband to resolve it.

But not a single beast husband wanted to touch her.

Which led to her fainting, and being treated with ice water as a solution.

Primarily, this aphrodisiac was made from the Beast World Enchanting Flower, there was indeed no antidote.

Only through that kind of method could it be resolved.

Unfortunately, no one was willing to help her, leading to her soaking in ice water overnight.

Though it seemed resolved, some of the medicine’s effect still lingered in her body.

The Space System said: "Yes, that’s right, surely the host has remembered some memories."

"As long as Host sleeps with a beast husband, over time, the remaining drug effect will naturally be resolved."

Su Muyao: "..."

"System, you’re really not sparing any effort to have me involved with a beast husband."

"Preserving life is more important."

So when the wave of heat surged, Su Muyao tried hard to suppress it.

Yet the detoxification medicine plus the surging remnants of aphrodisiac made Su Muyao indeed very uncomfortable.

In a daze, Su Muyao heard the door opening.

Su Muyao vaguely remembered forgetting to lock the door.

Of course, she knew that even if the door was wide open, the beast husbands wouldn’t do anything to her.

Besides, she worried about mutated beasts showing up, making it convenient for them to save her.

Normally, unless it’s a full moon night, mutated beasts won’t break into the tribe to attack beastmen.

But there are occasional unexpected situations where mutated beasts appear.

So it’s better to be cautious.

"Wife, what’s wrong?"

Wen Nanxi entered holding something, seeing Su Muyao on the bed not quite right.

Now, Su Muyao lay on the bed, black, flowing hair scattered on the pillow, her skin like snow.

Her dark brows like dyed willows in rouge, eyebrows like drunken modesty.

Cheeks with traces of blush, crystal flowing beauty.

Her eyes even misted up, providing a lovely, pitiful sense of vulnerability.

She bit her lips tightly, seemingly enduring something.

Making those lips even more crimson, like a flower waiting to be picked, enchanting and dripping.

If her disfigured, blackened face was ignored, she truly looked captivating in this moment.

But the red on her face wasn’t normal, also carried a weak feeling.

Hearing Wen Nanxi’s voice, Su Muyao gazed at her in a daze, trying hard to make her voice sound normal, "I... I’m fine!"

Yet as soon as she spoke, her voice still had trace whispers of moaning breaths.

Su Muyao like this couldn’t be really okay.

"Is it a fever?"

Wen Nanxi furrowed his brows, reaching to touch her forehead, checking her temperature.

Unexpectedly, the resistance Su Muyao had, now at Wen Nanxi’s touch, her body feeling the coolness wanted to lean closer to him uncontrollably.

Her body even trembled slightly.

Wen Nanxi checked and she shouldn’t have a fever.

Just, by moonlight seeing Su Muyao like this, Wen Nanxi seemed to think of something, more layers of darkness flickered in his gentle eye.

He continued softly, "Wife, is it somewhere that feels bad?"

Su Muyao’s body lightly trembled, even if rationality remained, the surging heat made her unable to resist wanting to lean on Wen Nanxi.

He had a soothing, cool feeling that brought comfort.

Su Muyao gritted her teeth holding on, whispered, "I’m fine, just a bit hot."

"Do you have something to discuss?"

In the late night, coming to her surely meant something.

Wen Nanxi saw her moist eyes, with a pitiful yet restrained look, evoking sympathy.

He softened his heart, sighed lightly, holding her softly in his arms, then his legs turned into a snake tail, gently coiling Su Muyao within.

The snake tail softly cooling sensation made Su Muyao’s body feel somewhat more comfortable.
