Chapter 22 Going to Xuanmo Cave
Shu Ning, who was pretending to faint, couldn't hold back any longer; the corners of her mouth were about to turn up uncontrollably.
"Haha..." In the end, I couldn't help but laugh.
Mo Li: ?
Xiao Chong: ...
Xuanmo's lips curled up slightly.
"You're not dizzy anymore?" Mo Li realized.
"Who told you not to stop? It's like you're addicted to fighting." Shu Ning pouted slightly.
When she saw the bruises on their faces, she frowned and asked, "Why did you two start fighting?"
"Wasn't it him who hurt you?" Mo Li asked.
"Who?" Shu Ning asked in confusion, then realized what was happening.
"no."
"What exactly is going on?" Mo Li asked.
"They are from the Black Bear Clan."
Xuanmo's face darkened upon hearing the name of the Black Bear Clan.
"Yes, on our way back we passed through the territory of the Black Bear Clan and were besieged by them."
As Shu Ning was speaking, she suddenly thought of something and stopped talking.
"What are you going there for?" Mo Li asked.
“Go there…” Shu Ning hesitated, glancing at Xiao Chong.
“What’s it to you where I go?” Xiao Chong suddenly said.
"It's none of my business, but it is my business that you took her with you and failed to protect her!" Mo Li said angrily.
Xiao Chong remained silent and did not answer.
Seeing Mo Li's strong reaction, Shu Ning was taken aback.
"It was my insistence that I drag him there, so blame me if you want."
Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Shu Ning quickly spoke up.
"The other side has a large number of people and they have done their best to protect me."
"Trying his best? Then how come he's alright? Wait, them? Who else?"
"And Xuan Lin too." Shu Ning regretted saying it as soon as she finished speaking, feeling like she had sold Xuan Lin out.
"Two males can't protect one female," Mo Li scoffed.
"Okay, okay, I'm perfectly fine now!" Shu Ning said.
"I'm so hungry, I haven't eaten anything all day."
After he finished speaking, the room fell silent instantly.
“Come to my place, I have some,” Xuanmo said.
"Okay!" Shu Ning smiled happily.
Suddenly, something else came to mind.
Xuanmo never gives her food, does he?
The original owner initially sought out Yi Yuan after Xuan Mo ignored her.
Seeing Shu Ning hesitate, Xuan Mo simply picked her up from Mo Li's arms.
Shu Ning was shocked!
Wasn't he very averse to contact with her before?
They didn't even want to stay in his cave any longer.
And she hasn't even lost weight yet.
She turned around and looked at the two men behind her.
I have a feeling I can't quite describe.
She looked up at Xuan Mo's cold, handsome face and immediately felt a warmth on her cheek.
"Xuanmo, why don't you put me down? I can walk."
He didn't say anything.
"I'm very heavy."
She was indeed worried about this and couldn't understand how someone as thin as him could carry her.
Although his muscles are indeed very firm.
“It’s not heavy,” Xuanmo said.
They soon arrived at Xuanmo's cave.
After putting her on the bed, I went to get some meat and fruit.
Shu Ning really wanted to eat meat, but it was raw, and it was late. Besides, she didn't have the energy to start a fire, so she took some fruit instead.
"This is fine with me."
Xuanmo remained silent, simply sitting beside her and quietly watching her.
He noticed that the pimples on her face had disappeared, her face had become thinner, and her skin had become whiter, but it lacked vitality.
"Xuanmo, have you eaten?" Shu Ning asked, looking at him sitting next to her while eating fruit.
"Um."
"By the way, Xuanmo, have Fang Yu and Fang Shi apologized to you?"
Shu Ning suddenly remembered this matter and wondered if they had kept their promise.
“Yes,” Xuanmo replied.
His opinion of her changed after he learned that she was the one who cleared his name.
He discovered that she was no longer as clingy to him as before, and instead, she fought against her own people for him, rescuing him from the sacrificial altar.
Thinking of this, a tender look appeared in Xuanmo's eyes.
"Okay, I'm full," Shu Ning said.
"Xuanmo, I should go back now."
"I'll take you back."
"No need, I can go back by myself."
Actually, there's no need to send her anything; she can just teleport.
Xuanmo ignored her, picked her up, and walked towards her cave.
On the road—
"Xuanmo, there's something I want to ask you."
"What's up?"
"I treated you so badly before, I hurt you, why didn't you leave after you regained your strength?"
"Want to know?"
"Mmm!"
"you guess."
"I can't guess, so just tell me. I promise I won't tell anyone else and I won't get angry."
Xuanmo did not reply to her.
After arriving at Shu Ning's cave, they put her down.
"Get some rest," Xuan Mo said, a complex expression flashing in his eyes, before leaving.
"Okay, you too."
Shu Ning slowly lay down on the bed, recalling the events of the day.
In the morning, I became partners with Xiao Chong.
This was because she came into this world and married him under her own "identity".
Perhaps, this is her true beastly husband.
The other five beast husbands were all acquired by the original owner; she was only there to do the planning.
I just don't know what will happen after I finish making the guide.
Will she develop feelings for them? What will they do if she leaves like this?
Will the original owner wake up again?
"007, 007, after completing the mission, should I return to my world or stay? If I complete the mission and leave, will the original owner wake up?"
If she can leave, can she take him with her?
"Since we're here, let's make the best of it and not overthink it. Only by completing the task will we have the right to choose."
"Always acting mysteriously."
Shu Ning stopped asking and suddenly remembered something.
She wants to use up the remaining teleportation attempts.
What about the salt? We'll deal with it tomorrow. She's really exhausted today.
The next morning—
As soon as Shu Ning opened the door, she saw Xiao Chong's back standing outside the cave.
For a fleeting moment, she thought it was Xuan Lin.
After all, it was always him who appeared in front of her cave.
They all had silver hair and were about the same height and build.
Xiao Chong's hair was a little darker, his skin a little darker, and he had several scars on his right cheek.
However, in her opinion, this did not affect his outstanding good looks; on the contrary, it gave him a kind of roguish charm.
"Awake?" Xiao Chong turned around after hearing the door open.
"Um."
"Have breakfast," Xiao Chong said, handing her the meat and fruit wrapped in leaves.
Shu Ning was stunned.
"Okay, thank you." He paused after taking the food.
She wants to eat meat, but not raw meat.
"Xiao Chong, have you ever eaten barbecue?" Shu Ning blinked and asked.
"Barbecue? What's that?" Xiao Chong looked at her, puzzled.
"Roasted meat is delicious."
She happened to have salt.
"I want to eat this, please help me!"
It's not that she doesn't want to do it herself, it's just inconvenient for her.
"How do I do it?" Xiao Chong asked, his heart softening at her pleading look.
"First, let's find some firewood."
Xiao Chong did as instructed…
"Then sharpen the stick."
...
"Like me, spin, spin hard and fast."
"Yes, that's it."
Xiao Chong was fast and strong enough that he succeeded in no time.
Xiao Chong was shocked to see the fire ignite under his hands.
He looked at Shu Ning in disbelief.
"These are all things I dreamed about."
Shu Ning quickly explained.
Then skewer the meat and grill it...
Then, he secretly took some salt from his spatial storage and sprinkled it on.
"Here, have a taste."
