Chapter 21 Sleep with Me

To Sheng Ran, the system's words sounded like ghost stories.

She does have poor eyesight, but she is not blind.

Can't she tell if there is anyone around?

The night fell, the sky was pitch black, and the howling of wild beasts could be heard in my ears.

Sheng Ran was so frightened by this situation that she almost got goosebumps and quickly returned to her room.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, so she searched the house.

I actually found a few black feathers that had a bit of a raven scent.

Sheng Ran rethought what the system had just said and had to believe it.

[So the raven can become invisible. Could it be that he is in my room right now?]

It’s weird to think about it this way!

Who can accept a person of the opposite sex who they are not familiar with being around them every day?

Even if he is the target of your strategy, you can't do such a boundless thing!

[No, no, no, host, he was guarding in the dark when you were picking herbs in the yard just now.]

[He has wind-related abilities and can hide in the wind.]

[The original owner didn't like his beast form, so he was only allowed to appear at night to protect your safety.]

[Of course, the raven had no right to enter the house. He was always waiting outside the window, and the feathers must have been blown in by the wind.]

After listening to the system's series of explanations, Sheng Ran finally calmed down.

But I also felt unbelievable, [So he was actually outside my room every night during this period?]

Pei Xiaoxing and Ling Rui usually just do some housework. The room is a little small and shabby, but at least there is a stone bed to sleep on.

He worked the night shift for six months, and if she got hurt, he would be on call.

It's simply a hellish lifestyle!

Sheng Ran couldn't imagine this kind of life.

She quickly leaned against the window and looked out, trying to find the raven in the dark night.

【He's not here, is he hiding? 】

System answer: [Yes, he is in a place far away from the host, but can still see you.]

[Raven has a powerful talent. If he wants to use his supernatural powers to hide, no one can let him out.]

The system said all this tremblingly.

It was inexplicably afraid of ravens.

From the very beginning, this beastly husband's blackening value was the highest, and there has been no tendency to loosen up so far.

The system has been following Sheng Ran for so long and doesn't want her to get hurt. It is even trying to make an exception for her and reduce one of her strategy quotas.

[Host, please don't worry about it. Just pretend he doesn't exist and go to bed early.]

Sheng Ran, on the other hand, couldn't sleep at all.

How can this be possible?

Unable to speak, she could only bang on the edge of the window, trying to make a noise for the raven to hear.

I have to have a good talk with him.

Sheng Ran made quite a lot of noise, and it seemed that she could wake Ling Rui up, but the wind around them was calm and did not cause any reaction.

Raven definitely heard it, but he just didn't want to come out.

Sheng Ran was anxious. Okay, he forced her to do this.

She picked up a sharp stone from the room and cut her arm with it without changing her expression.

Before the blood could seep out, a cold wind swirled around her and wrapped her tightly.

A male orc dressed in black suddenly appeared in front of her, looking at her with his eyes lowered and without any expression.

Like every time before, Raven opened his lips like a robot.

Before he could utter the word "Master", Sheng Ran hurriedly covered half of his face.

I've told him so many times, why doesn't he understand?

She hated this name.

"Master, your hand will hurt if you hit me like this, and it won't be effective." The raven bent one leg and knelt. "It's been so long since you last taught me. Are you rusty?"

He knelt before her and said, "Your whip is there. This will come in handy."

Sheng Ran suddenly pulled her hand back and put it behind her back.

[What are you imagining?! I just wanted to cover your mouth, not slap you!]

When Raven heard this, he couldn't help but frown, with a hint of self-mockery on his face.

"You called me out at this time just to vent your anger on me, didn't you?"

Sheng Ran had never been made to kneel before, and was not used to being treated like this.

She pulled the raven up and asked, "Why don't you eat what I cook?"

Raven was surprised by the question.

"Because it's not for me."

Sheng Ran liked to force him to eat rotten and spoiled food to satisfy her twisted pleasure.

The first time she made soup, the raven drank it.

The food was delicious, it must not be prepared for him.

After that, Raven didn't dare to touch it again.

But Sheng Ran stamped her feet anxiously, not knowing how to explain.

【Of course it’s for you! 】

The raven lowered its eyelashes, dazed for a moment.

Why couldn't he understand the bad female in front of him?

His emotions were in a mess, and the dull pain from the old injury on his back finally made Raven sober up a little.

"If the master does not take action tonight, Raven will take his leave."

Sheng Ran held his hand tightly.

Raven clenched his fists, not showing her his palms, and Sheng Ran's fingertips fell on his chest.

[From now on, you should call me your wife, live at home, eat and sleep with us.]

Soft fingertips were playing with his body, and a tingling sensation spread from his chest. Raven had a strange reaction all over his body. Although he was not beaten, it was more unbearable than any other time.

He looked forbearing and did not react for a moment.

Sheng Ran was afraid that he would refuse, so she continued writing:

[You are my beastly husband, you have the obligation to take care of me, you can't——]

Raven suddenly grabbed her.

The male beast's palm was large and hot, tightly wrapping around her entire hand.

He couldn't help it, so he interrupted her.

Beast husband? She had never given him that title.

What exactly is Sheng Ran going to do?

Raven stared at her for a long moment with a complicated expression, and finally nodded, "I understand..."

"Wife." He said these two words with some difficulty.

very good.

Sheng Ran couldn't help but smile when she heard this.

While Raven was lost in thought, she pulled her hand away and continued writing on his chest with great interest, "There's no other room in the house, so you sleep here first."

Sheng Ran made this decision as a last resort.

There are only three rooms in the house that can accommodate people.

After all, Pei Xiaoxing went out because he was not feeling well. When he came back and found that someone was sleeping in his bed without permission, he would definitely feel sad.

Besides, her bed was the only soft bed with a cotton quilt, big and comfortable, and could easily accommodate two people.

Raven's spine was broken because of her, so it's better to take good care of him.

“…No, I have a place to live.”

Sheng Ran was confused. Where could he live?

"The cliff has my nest."

Sheng Ran couldn't help but laugh.

Raven clenched his fists silently, his eyes growing colder.

What is she laughing at?

It’s not Sheng Ran’s fault. Ravens, which have been regarded as an ominous sign since childhood, are particularly sensitive to any kind of meaningless smile.

He didn't know why he stayed and allowed this female to humiliate him with new methods that he couldn't understand.

But the next second, he heard Sheng Ran's inner voice.

[Do you really think of yourself as a wild bird? ]

【But you can also build a nest at home! 】

Home?

Does he have a home?

A trace of confusion flashed across Raven's eyes.

He pursed his lips and grabbed Sheng Ran's hands again, "Master, please don't—"

At the same time, a voice full of fatigue came over.

"What are you doing?"

Ling Rui stood at the door with dissatisfaction, staring at a beastly husband who shouldn't be in the house.

"Wife, why is he in your room?"
