Chapter 285 Sharing the Same Misfortune

He downed the wine in one gulp.

Fruit wine is delicious, but it's easy to drink it without restraint.

Jiang Xi drank it like juice, asking Nafiel to chill it for her. Several times during the meal, Yi Yuexi brought her chilled drinks, which she accepted each time.

The more you drink, the better it tastes; the more you drink, the more intoxicating it becomes.

The end result was that she dazedly fell into Lu Liufeng's arms, wrapped her arms around his neck, and mumbled incoherently.

"I'm not drunk."

"I'm just dizzy."

Yi Yuexi reached out to take it, but Lu Liufeng refused.

"The mistress is drunk."

Yi Yuexi rippled, "I can take care of the mistress tonight~"

Lu Liufeng glanced at him, but didn't give it to him. Instead, he carried the female master into the house, helped her wash her face and brush her teeth, and then helped her undress and go to sleep.

Yi Yuexi followed, dissatisfied.

"I won't do anything."

Lu Liufeng wiped the female master's face without turning around.

“You should have known this would happen when you kept pouring the female master fruit wine.”

He tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice instead.

"If the female master is still conscious, she might let you stay."

The female master is most talkative when she's slightly tipsy.

He couldn't possibly let the female protagonist, who was drunk and unconscious, take care of him.

Yi Yuexi leaned against the door with her arms crossed, her fox-like eyes slightly raised.

"You talk as if you're so noble."

Lu Liufeng ignored him.

Knowing she had no chance, Yi Yuexi snorted, returned to the courtyard, sat in the spot where the female master had been, picked up the chilled fruit wine she hadn't finished, and started drinking.

Hill, Dobing, and Little Ai are gone.

Camus and Alvino, however, remained seated, completely oblivious to the situation.

Yi Yuexi couldn't help but retort to them.

"Aren't you leaving yet? Or are you planning to stay here?"

Camus glanced at him.

"This is my royal court. I can stay wherever I want."

Alvino looked around at the group of familiar and unfamiliar orcs, and stood up.

"Since she's asleep, I'll be going now."

After saying that, he turned and left, glancing inside Jiang Xi's house as he passed by.

Duan Si left with a bottle of wine.

Nafiel stood up and left, and Nakan also stood up and chased after him.

For a moment, only Camus, Ilse, and Hollen remained at the dining table in the courtyard.

The crimson moon hung high above the mountains, casting its unobstructed light into the courtyard, where it blended with the red glow of the bonfire burning within, creating an eerie scene.

Camille rested one hand on her forehead, her long platinum-gold hair cascading down, and her golden crown gleaming.

The female owner was very enthusiastic about drinking, and he drank quite a bit along with her.

Although I wasn't drunk, I felt a little dizzy.

His mind went blank, and countless chaotic memories surfaced, making it impossible for him to see or distinguish them.

But in short, it seemed to be some very bad things that made him feel disgusted.

Yang bent down to ask.

"Your Majesty, are you alright?"

Camus propped his head up and shook his head.

"It's alright."

He looked up and glanced at Hollen and Yi Yuexi on the table.

With the female master absent, and not wanting to linger with her beast husband, he stood up.

"Let's go, we'll come again tomorrow."

Yi Yuexi snorted coldly.

"Don't come! The female master doesn't want to see you at all!"

Camus frowned slightly, looking somewhat irritated.

He glanced at Yi Yuexi a few more times. She was indeed beautiful, with a face that could attract females. It was normal for the female master to like her.

But he really didn't like that personality.

He walked to the front of the female protagonist's house and looked inside. He saw her sleeping soundly on the bed with her rosy cheeks. The aversion he felt from the jumbled fragments of memories gradually disappeared.

Instead, my heart is filled with burning passion.

The queen doesn't want to live in his palace, but this place is a bit too simple. Tomorrow, he'll have to send some orcs to decorate it.

How could the queen of the mighty Tree King live in such a wretched place?

Lu Liufeng had already felt several gazes behind him, and this particular gaze had lingered for so long that he had no choice but to turn around.

He paused for a moment after meeting Camus's gaze.

Then he nodded.

Camus nodded. "Take good care of the mistress. If you need anything, you can come to me anytime. I will grant you the maximum authority to travel in the royal court."

That sounds pretty good.

But Lu Liufeng knew perfectly well that this was the arrogance of the Lord of Camus's Royal Court acting up again.

However, he still thanked him.

Thank you.

Although it's not very useful, it's better to have something than nothing.

Camus turned and left, but paused after walking a short distance.

He glanced sideways at Yang beside him.

“Following Yi Yuexi’s example, gather some young, unmarried beastmen in the Giant Tree Forest. Their age doesn’t matter; the important thing is that they have good temperaments and aren’t spoiled like Yi Yuexi…”

Originally, he was dissatisfied with Duan Si, Mu Ling, and Yi Yuexi.

But after a few times, he really couldn't stand Yi Yuexi's appearance. How was he any different from those wanton beastmen outside who specialized in seducing other women?

Even after getting married, they don't know how to restrain themselves. They still flaunt their wealth as they did when they were unmarried, which is truly unbearable to look at.

Who knows how much trouble this will cause in the future?

Yang smiled.

“Wang… Yi Yuexi is a nine-tailed white fox.”

Camus glanced at him.

"Could it be that there are no foxes in our Giant Tree Forest? I don't believe that in such a vast Giant Tree Forest, we can't find any beastmen whose appearance can rival his."

Yang smiled.

"Yes, ma'am."

The fox clan is renowned for its beauty; the higher the bloodline, the more beautiful the appearance.

The Nine-Tailed White Fox Clan is the fox clan within the fox clan.

There are no foxes with such a high bloodline in the Giant Tree Forest.

But as the king's loyal subordinate, he naturally obeyed whatever the king said.

He may not be able to find it, but he cannot not do it.

Only Hollen and Yi Yuexi remained at the dining table in the courtyard.

The two sat facing each other.

The barbecue and various dishes on the table had all gone cold and were no longer edible.

Hollen and Yi Yuexi each held a cup in one hand and a wine bottle in the other, pouring themselves drinks.

Frost appeared on Yi Yuexi's palm, chilling herself.

He used to have no particular feelings about ice, but after iced it for the female master a few times, he also came to like the cool feeling when it entered his mouth.

A chill slid down his throat, cooling him from the inside out.

He was drinking when he looked up and saw Hollen also drinking alone, and he chuckled.

Would you like it chilled?

As he spoke, he froze the wine bottle in his hand with ice and threw it over.

Hollen caught it, somewhat surprised that he had been so friendly to him today.

"Thanks?"

Yi Yuexi chuckled.

His gaze fell upon the house lit by the fire, where Lu Liufeng's shadow was cast on the stone wall, intimately entwined with the female master.

"We're just in the same boat."

“Who else here is as miserable as you and me, unable to even enter the female master’s house?”

It's obvious from Yi Yuexi's eyes that Hollen has also fallen for the female master.

Although he didn't know what he was worried about, Yi Yuexi knew that he would never leave the female master.

When the Golden Soul Fruit was placed before them, they all chose to forget, to forget what they had said.

Will the marriage be dissolved if the Golden Soul Fruit is found?

Ha, only a fool would break off a marriage contract.
