Chapter 223 Lightly Tugged



"You must have thought it through now." Jiang Zheyu tugged at his clothes gently. "Don't go against your heart. Agree to become my beast husband."

Dan Xun paused for a moment, his clothes being tugged by the female in front of him. Although she didn't have much strength, his attention couldn't help but wander as she tugged at his clothes.

His heart couldn't help but flutter slightly.

My emotions, which had just calmed down, couldn't help but start to waver and become chaotic again.

But in the end, he frowned, reached out and grasped Jiang Zheyu's wrist, pulled her hand off his clothes, and said softly, "Stop fooling around, go to sleep."

"You really don't like me? If you don't like me, why are you reacting to me?" Jiang Zheyu's hand was pulled off, so she reached out with her other hand, grabbed Shan Xun's hem, and gently tugged and shook it.

Upon hearing this, Shan Xun's face flushed even more.

"Go to sleep." He only said this one sentence before grabbing Jiang Zheyu's wrist and quickly pulling her into the room. Before Jiang Zheyu could react, the door behind her was slammed shut.

Jiang Zheyu: ...

Jiang Zheyu quickly cleared her throat again: "Captain Shan, it's so dark, I'm so scared, I can't sleep alone, would you like to sleep with me?"

She is so pitiful, so weak, so helpless, so sad!

How could he bear to watch her so pitiful, so weak, so helpless, so sad?

But there was no sound outside.

Jiang Zheyu: ...

It was all for nothing.

But a voice still came from outside: "Go to sleep."

Jiang Zheyu sighed. What an impervious man.

With such a beautiful woman like her right here, he wasn't even tempted.

"Never mind," Jiang Zheyu thought, and silently went back to bed.

A new day.

Jiang Zheyu simply washed her face and rinsed her mouth, and that was it.

It's not as exquisite as it used to be here.

She found leftover meat slices and fruit from yesterday on the table. She had originally intended them for Shan Xun, but she had forgotten. However, they should still be edible today.

Although it was very hot outside, it was quite cool inside the earthen house.

Inside the room, Jiang Zheyu saw Shan Xun seemingly fiddling with some small instrument.

"Captain Shan, what are you doing?" Jiang Zheyu walked over curiously.

“This is a rescue signal.” Shan Xun glanced at Jiang Zheyu. “When the space network is restored, the Empire will receive the message and come to our rescue.”

“Oh, I see.” Jiang Zheyu nodded.

There was another knock on the door.

Jiang Zheyu hurriedly went out, guessing it was probably the same old woman from yesterday.

Seeing her walk out, Shan Xun put down what he was holding and followed her out.

Jiang Zheyu opened the door and saw the old woman, who was carrying a new basket with fresh food inside.

“Mother-in-law, you’re here again,” Jiang Zheyu said quietly.

The old woman glanced at Shan Xun behind Jiang Zheyu, then at Jiang Zheyu herself, and finally, expressionlessly, handed the basket in her hand to Jiang Zheyu: "Where's the basket from yesterday?"

Jiang Zheyu was taken aback for a moment, then replied, "I haven't finished eating what I had yesterday."

"No need to eat it, give it to me, I'm taking it." The old female seemed to be saying fewer strange things today, although she still looked somewhat sinister and terrifying.

Jiang Zheyu obediently went back to his room, took out the basket, and handed it to the old female.

Soon, the old woman left with her basket.

Jiang Zheyu noticed that Shan Xun's gaze had fallen on the basket she was holding.

She then casually raised the basket in her hand: "Yinji is probably afraid that I'll go hungry, so she had that old woman bring me food every mealtime. Why don't you come and eat with me later? The food here is quite monotonous."

Otherwise, she probably wouldn't be able to finish it all by herself.

"You... accepted that orc?" Shan Xun frowned slightly.

Jiang Zheyu pretended not to see it and walked into the house on her own, only casually replying, "Yes, I accept it, so what?"

Dan Xun followed behind her into the house, saying, "That orc clearly has ill intentions."

“But he’s been really good to me,” Jiang Zheyu said quietly. “He’s the one who saved me that day.”

Dan Xun lowered his eyes and remained silent for a long time before finally saying nothing.

A female is free to choose whomever she likes, and it is perfectly natural for her to marry as many beast husbands as she wants.

He had no reason to interfere, nor should he have said that.

The two sat down at the table, and Jiang Zheyu called out to Shan Xun, "Captain Shan, come and eat with us, I can't finish it all by myself."

"No need." Shan Xun simply lowered his head and continued fiddling with his instruments.

"Ah." Jiang Zheyu's eyes flickered. "Why aren't you eating?"

"I'll eat the nutritional supplements you give me, I won't eat these." He wouldn't eat the ones that the beastman prepared for him.

"Oh, okay then." Jiang Zheyu started eating by herself first.

But she really couldn't finish it herself, so she handed it to Shan Xun with a pleading look: "Captain Shan, I'll have to trouble you with the rest. I really can't finish it."

Dan Xun glanced at Jiang Zheyu, but in the end, he took the food that Jiang Zheyu couldn't finish and ate it.

Jiang Zheyu watched him eat with gusto and said leisurely, "Captain Shan, do you think my leftovers taste better?"

I asked him to eat with me earlier, but he refused. Now that he's finished his leftovers and says he can't eat anymore, I offered him the leftovers, and he's willing to eat them.

Danxun paused only slightly, but quickly continued eating all the meat slices as if nothing had happened.

But in the end, he simply replied, "Mm."

Jiang Zheyu didn't react for a moment. What was he agreeing to with that response?

Huh? The leftovers really taste better?

Jiang Zheyu: !

“No waste.” Shan Xun added this sentence as he looked at her from behind.

Jiang Zheyu blinked. Was this guy playing hard to get?

"Captain Shan, have you ever kissed anyone?" Jiang Zheyu cupped her chin in her hands, her bright brown eyes looking at him.

Dan Xun's body stiffened slightly, and his gaze couldn't help but fall on Jiang Zheyu's rosy and beautiful lips.

Suddenly he felt a burning sensation in his eyes and quickly looked away.

He had never kissed anyone.

"Why ask this?" Shan Xun felt he was losing his grip and couldn't help but waver again and again.

"Oh, it's nothing, I was just asking casually," Jiang Zheyu replied with a smile.

Dan Xun couldn't help but look at the little female again, probably realizing that he had been amused by her.

But he felt no anger at all.
