Su Yan raised her hand and touched his face.
Feng Xuan paused in his coughing, a fleeting glint in his eyes.
He looked at Su Yan's hand.
"What did Master go to do?"
"I'm going to find someone."
Feng Xuan coughed twice while leaning on the table, and then released his grip on Su Yan.
He looked at Su Yan, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
"My master probably left me here on purpose to go find a more powerful contracted beast."
Su Yan blinked. Wasn't he just talking about what he had done?
Why is he now questioning her with such self-righteousness?
Su Yan turned her head and looked at the corpses scattered on the ground.
Seeing her completely indifferent attitude towards him, Feng Xuan felt even more annoyed.
He coughed even more violently while holding onto the table.
"Does Master regret returning so early?"
If I come back any later, some powerful human might kill me.
Perhaps, I will die of illness on my own without anyone else having to do anything.
"Then my master can dump me and go find other contracted beasts without any worries."
Su Yan remained silent.
It's not that I don't want to talk.
They simply didn't know what to say.
How on earth did he make this up out of nowhere?
Su Yan looked at his small frame; it seemed like he was about to fall over at any moment.
She tried to help him up, but he turned away, as if he wouldn't let her touch him unless Su Yan made it clear.
Su Yan looked at him for a while.
He lowered his head and pulled over a stool to sit down.
He poured himself a cup of tea from the teapot.
You're not allowed to touch it?
Then I won't touch it.
Let her take a sip of water before we talk things out properly.
Su Yan kept thinking about the man she had met.
If they were to meet again, her chances of winning would only be 60%.
The ancient mythical beast, Taotie?
Oh, she used to be a descendant of the Taotie, so she has thick skin and is impervious to swords and spears.
The word "饕餮" (taotie) to some extent represents absolute power.
While watching them fuss around, Xiaohua thought about the novels and TV dramas she had read before.
I thought for a long time, but I still couldn't find a way to bring the two of them into any book.
Until, Xiaohua suddenly lit up
"Host, host, you two look like a domineering CEO and his sickly, delicate wife~~~"
Su Yan was stunned.
"kindness?"
Little Flower was immersed in her own imagination.
"Host, your little wife seems to be sad. Aren't you going to comfort her?"
Su Yan looked up and saw Feng Xuan standing there, leaning on the table, his body stiff.
Head bowed, a sense of desolation permeated his entire being.
He caused this scene of bloodshed, so why is he sad?
Then Feng Xuan spoke in a very weak voice.
"Master, I will not kill anyone from now on. Can you please not look for other contracted beasts?"
His voice was hoarse, and his lips trembled as he spoke.
Su Yan was surprised to hear that he was still fixated on the unfounded claim that she had found another contracted beast.
And he was truly heartbroken.
He was serious; he wasn't being unreasonable.
Su Yan stood up from her seat at this moment.
He walked up to him, his voice earnest.
"I didn't intend to find another contracted beast."
When she touched him, she found his body was still stiff.
She hugged him.
"I have never treated you as something that I could throw away at will."
She stood on tiptoe and kissed his closed eyes.
"You are very important to me. No matter what you do, I will never abandon you. This is my promise to you."
Feng Xuan opened his eyes immediately after being kissed.
He stared intently at Su Yan.
It was as if something had been unlocked.
