Chapter 35: Ling Rui must not be allowed to feel happy

"It would be a good thing if my wife could really speak, but who can guarantee how much she can say, how long she can speak, and whether she can fully recover?"

Ling Ruiyu was anxious, still unable to accept the fact that he would never hear Sheng Ran's voice again.

He hurried into the house, "I need to go back and confirm."

Raven pulled him back and said, "Wait, let me ask you something first."

"Master, why can you heal Huaijun's injuries?"

He has only recently started to take personal care of Sheng Ran. In the past, he just watched from afar and didn't know what was happening recently.

He didn't know why Ling Rui asked him to take his master to a place with lush plants on the day Sheng Ran broke her bones.

I don’t know what happened to her after enduring such pain, but she recovered in just two days.

She also didn't understand what extraordinary effects the tea herbs she brought to Beining to sell had.

"We also accidentally discovered that my wife has a special connection with plants," Ling Rui explained briefly. "With this ability, she can not only heal herself, but also save others. It's more effective than any magical herb."

Raven was surprised. No wonder his master was fine after breaking his bones. He was even confident that he could cure Huaijun.

"In the entire Beast World Continent, I have never heard of any beastman having such ability."

He has almost no social life or connections, but he is not isolated from information.

Because there is never a shortage of chirping birds around.

They are used to traveling all over the world and have seen all kinds of strange things.

These birds especially like to fly next to the raven's ear and discuss things, so it's hard for him not to know.

This is the first time I have encountered something unheard of.

"What if my wife isn't an orc?" Ling Rui suddenly thought of this. "I've never seen her in her beast form."

Raven has been with Sheng Ran since childhood and knows this better: "Master has never awakened his beast form."

It was precisely because she was measured as the Void Level that the label of useless female was firmly pinned on her.

Ling Rui frowned, suddenly realizing that his wife might be someone beyond their imagination.

He calmed himself down and looked at Raven warily: "Don't tell anyone about this, or it will put my wife in danger."

"Of course." Raven said, "We must be careful to keep this a secret from Huaijun in the future."

"He is no longer the master's beastly husband, so he has no right to know about our family affairs."

Ling Rui nodded, but his eyes dimmed a little.

He lowered his head, sighed in frustration, and said in a muffled voice: "We will too in the future."

"Before I set off, I never thought that my wife would directly dissolve the engagement with Huaijun."

Everything she says will happen.

When the grudges she mentioned are finally settled, he will become an abandoned husband just like Huai Jun.

If Pei Xiaoxing were here, Ling Rui could still complain to him and think of a solution in a day, but the one in front of him was Raven.

"Forget it, there's no point in telling you." Ling Rui turned his face away nonchalantly, "You can't wait to leave your wife anyway."

The ability to read minds suddenly disappeared, and Raven showed no emotion at all.

I guess he doesn't care.

Ling Rui was thinking about going back quickly, so he turned around and left.

Raven, who had been calm and composed just now, suddenly pursed his lips and looked unhappy.

He stopped where he was, thinking about what Ling Rui had just said, feeling lost in thought.

Everyone knew how much he hated Sheng Ran, and they all thought he was trying his best to escape from her.

But Raven never thought about it.

He only knew that Sheng Ran hated him and he hated Sheng Ran too. Since he couldn't leave her, they would torture each other for the rest of their lives.

This obsession has penetrated deep into my bones and cannot be erased or eliminated. Only by relying on this twisted emotion can I continue to survive.

Raven is obviously inseparable from Sheng Ran just like them, so how could he not care about her?

He even felt that he was more dangerous than Ling Rui.

Sheng Ran was willing to endure the pain of broken bones to break the death contract between them.

Isn't the purpose to dissolve the marriage contract in a better way?

But he was a homeless man without any relatives, where could he go without Sheng Ran?

She had taught him a lesson so easily in the past, so why would she let him go?

He was her slave, and he would follow her through life and death.

He couldn't let his imagination run wild any longer and had to go find his master.

Raven tightened his grip and quickly walked back to the room.

The room they booked had only one bed.

The two male beasts' rest was easy to solve. They could sleep anywhere. Raven could even find a branch to hang on for the night. Naturally, the bed was given to Sheng Ran.

She was tired today, so she took a shower, changed her clothes, and lay down to rest.

Ling Rui still begged for mercy by the bed, calling her "wife" all the time, as if he had gone mad.

Sheng Ran was very confused. Was he unable to sleep because he was not used to his bed, or was he homesick and unable to sleep at night, so he was so eager to chat with her at this time?

But she is a mute.

Ling Rui called her so many times but didn't say anything. Could it be that he was really waiting for her response?

Sheng Ran closed her eyes tightly, wishing she were deaf as well.

Amidst the dense calls of "Wife", the sound of a door opening and closing was heard.

The raven is back.

Sheng Ran thought that Ling Rui had someone to chat with, so he wouldn't continue to make noise in her ears.

Unexpectedly, he continued to speak without stopping, as if he didn't feel tired at all.

"My wife must be cursing me in her heart right now, right? No problem, please curse as much as you want!"

Sheng Ran opened her eyes unhappily and finally responded to him with a complaining look in her eyes.

Of course she was cursing him, and she wasn't the only one cursing him.

The system was complaining, "Ling Rui really has a masochistic streak, right? He not only likes being beaten, he also likes being scolded!"

Systems at this level also need to rest and synchronize with the host's schedule.

As soon as Sheng Ran lay down, it quickly fell asleep.

I had only slept for a few minutes when I was abruptly woken up by Ling Rui. Who can stand this!

The system, in a self-righteous and malicious way, suggested, "Host, don't be angry. If you hit him, that would really make him feel good."

Sheng Ran's tightly furrowed brows suddenly relaxed. That made sense.

Don't hit him or scold him, and never let him get away with it!

Sheng Ran raised the corners of her lips with a smile, and sure enough, she saw Ling Rui's devastated expression with his head in his hands.

Is this trick so effective?

Ling Rui turned to look at Raven, lowering his voice, his tone saturated with bitterness, "No... I really can't hear a word you say."

Sheng Ran thought that Raven was at least a normal person, and prayed that he would quickly grab Ling Rui and stop him from making trouble.

Raven quickly stepped forward, pleading with mixed emotions, "Master... say something."

Sheng Ran frowned in confusion, and Raven continued to explain, "Try to speak, just give it a try."

What is she trying? Doesn’t she know her own body well?

Her voice is ruined now and she can't make any sound.

Sheng Ran was silent for a long time, and there was only confusion in her eyes when she looked at them.

He finally opened his mouth and spoke using the most primitive muscle memory.

The vocal organs of this body were damaged. Sheng Ran was so anxious that her face turned red, and she could only make extremely weak and hoarse sounds.

Still can't utter a complete word.

It takes a lot of healing potions and time to recover your throat.

Sheng Ran had already accepted this, and she didn't feel too disappointed.

But for some reason, Ling Rui's face was half turned away.

Sheng Ran leaned over to look, and saw that the corners of his eyes were turning red, like red ink swollen by rain, spreading out but tightly held.

Those eyes that always had a bit of rebelliousness were now covered with a layer of moisture.

Ling Rui is crying?

Sheng Ran suspected that she was dazzled. Why was she crying for no reason?

The system was also thinking, [The host didn't hit or scold him, so why should he be so sad!]
