Chapter 59
Cheng Fu thought that Holmes heard this nickname, and she really wasn't lying to Wen Gengting.
But there was nothing to hide, so she admitted it openly: "Your guess is not wrong, I can indeed gain new abilities from this."
After all, they were both beastly husbands, and this matter could not be concealed for a long time. Since Wen Gengting asked about it, Cheng Fu admitted it.
Everyone was a little surprised to get the answer from Cheng Fu, except Wen Gengting, who already had a rough idea in his mind.
Xiao Wanyi frowned, really confused: "Adding a beast husband can increase abilities or something like that... I've never heard of it."
Doesn't that mean the more beastly husbands there are, the more replacements Cheng Fu will have?
Ying Xue felt a little complicated. Although it was a good thing that Cheng Fu became stronger, it also meant that there were more people competing with her.
He muttered, "The attention I'm getting isn't much to begin with, what will happen if a few more come?"
Thinking about the situation she might have to face in the future, Ying Xue's face turned even worse.
The former beast husbands could still view the situation from a bystander's perspective, but Phil, one of the parties involved, had already lost his expression. "So... that's why you were so willing to form a pact with me in the first place, right?"
It was obvious that Cheng Fu's attitude had changed so much, but when Cheng Fu caught up with him and said that she wanted to form a contract with him, Phil was so surprised and happy that he didn't care about anything else.
Phil's words made Cheng Fu gasp.
She caught a glimpse of Wen Gengting smiling from the corner of her eye, and her heart sank.
Listen, you're such a good person! Asking this question at this time is really a trap for me!
I haven’t even managed to coax Xi Qiancheng yet, and in the blink of an eye, there’s another person to coax, Phil!
Facing Phil's serious questioning, Cheng Fu really couldn't lie to him. She was just thinking about how to answer so as not to hurt him.
Cheng Fu's hesitation made Phil's heart sink a little bit. "So, if it weren't for the pollutants, you wouldn't have chosen me at all, right?"
Signus, who had been planning to come look for Cheng Fu, hadn't found the right moment to speak. Seeing his hesitation, Phil thought of his shared suffering, and his hostility immediately dissipated. He even took the initiative to talk to him, "What do you think of this, Head Priest, who's been through the same thing?"
Cheng Fu was so anxious that she broke out in a cold sweat.
This is a pit that has not been filled, and the people in the pit are still thinking of digging a new pit for her!
Cheng Fu looked at Signus. After listening to Phil's question, Signus thought seriously. Cheng Fu also cared about how he would answer. Her mood was up and down and she was extremely nervous.
But compared to the furious beast husbands, Signus remained as calm as ever. He spoke slowly, "But that also means that, given countless options, she chose us, doesn't it?"
Signus looked at Cheng Fu, his amber eyes clear and serious.
He clearly remembered that Cheng Fu had said in front of everyone not long ago that not everyone who was seriously injured would be willing to form a bond with her.
Cheng Fu nodded frantically after hearing what Signus said, feeling deeply moved! Finally, there was a beastly husband who wasn't obsessed with setting traps for her to fall into!
However, she ignored the other Sour Phoenix who was present at the time.
Xiao Wanyi chuckled and added, "Yeah, I even heard her say with my own ears that she liked Signus. We've been together for so long, and I haven't even heard her say she likes him!"
This sour smell is enough to kill you.
But one stone stirred up a thousand waves, and Ying Xue echoed: "I have never heard of it either."
Phil's smile didn't reach his eyes: "I think it was me who said the word 'like'."
Wen Gengting, who was always looking for trouble, also contributed: "I really haven't heard her say that."
Cheng Fu thought to herself that it was perfectly normal that you had never heard of it. With that good impression of Wen Gengting, Cheng Fu was even afraid that if she told him that she "liked" him, it would arouse Wen Gengting's murderous intent to kill her.
Then, Xi Qiancheng, who had been so silent since the beginning that Cheng Fu didn't dare to look at him, also spoke.
"Me neither." He sneered, and Cheng Fu's scalp tingled.
She wanted to save the relationship, and it was inevitable for her to tell every beastly husband that she loved him, but not now!
What you are saying now...are you afraid that you won’t die early enough?
Fortunately, Signus, who was the most stable, spoke up: "The treatment has come to an end. It's almost time to set off for the canyon ruins. If all goes well, we should arrive in less than two hours."
Cheng Fu was the first to agree with him: "Yes! We're just about to cook dinner. I'll prepare your favorite dishes, with plenty of them!"
The beastly husbands responded with a chorus of "Humph!"
If she didn't hear it wrong, there seemed to be a very small "huh" mixed in.
Cheng Fu glared at Wen Gengting, but Wen Gengting didn't dodge or avoid her, not caring at all that Cheng Fu heard his laughter.
Only Signus said to Cheng Fu in a gentle voice: "You've been tired all day, I can prepare it."
Cheng Fu shook her head. "How can that be? You're the one who's been battling the contaminants head-on. Even if your injuries have healed, you can't take it lightly!"
More importantly, Cheng Fu is still thinking about gaining the favor of other people!
Although it is difficult to appease him when he is angry, the favorability value can still be increased by giving him food. Cheng Fu will naturally not miss such an opportunity.
The atmosphere of her conversation with Signus was very good, just like a couple who respected each other. The other beastly husbands who were watching from the side felt particularly uncomfortable.
The more Xiao Wanyi looked at Signus, the more jealous she became: "You're the only one who can talk!"
Ying Xue also joined in the sarcastic remarks: "You are the only one who understands her!"
