Chapter 102 "Give me a name, please."
Raven barely took two bites of food before getting up and leaving the table.
He eats even less than Zhu Jiuyin. Does he think he is a god too?
Sheng Ran was worried and immediately chased after him.
She knew that Raven had never had a full meal or a good sleep since he was a child.
Not eating and sleeping was a habit he was forced to form under such living conditions.
After growing up, although he had a stable income and savings, so that he would not be as miserable as he was when he was a child, he still maintained this daily routine.
Because his life is no longer just his, but Sheng Ran's.
He never ate food from outside, fearing that it would be poisoned and thus fail to fulfill his responsibilities; nor did he easily sleep at night, fearing that he would miss something unusual.
He must protect Sheng Ran's safety at all times.
It wasn't until Sheng Ran started cooking that his habit began to relax.
I will eat some of it more or less, so as not to let her cooking skills go to waste.
But it’s really abnormal that he has to leave today after eating only a few bites.
Zhu Jiuyin's "marriage request" statement did not make him so angry. The only thing Sheng Ran could think of was the issue of her background.
Everyone was discussing his background, which offended Raven, so he was very unhappy?
Sheng Ran followed him immediately, but still failed to catch him.
He walked so fast that no one knew where he was going.
Sheng Ran really had no choice but to use the points again.
【I want to exchange props. 】
The system fiercely guarded its points database and said in a stingy tone, "No, no! The points we can redeem are dwindling. Host, we really can't use them on men anymore!"
Last time it was Pei Xiaoxing, this time it was Raven.
How come these beastly husbands are more wasteful than each other!
According to this situation, the rest of the people will also have to go through it one by one?
How can the host’s voice be any better?
The system has already suspected that [Your sudden inability to speak a word may be due to the lack of healing potions! ]
[The current healing potion can't make the situation better, but it can at least maintain the status quo! But you haven't drunk it in a long time, so of course it will get worse!]
Sheng Ran simply couldn't hear a word he said.
What is the system mumbling?
She didn't want to care about so many things. She only knew that she had to find Raven now!
[Are you the host or am I the host? I am the master of my own mall. I want to redeem items!]
Sheng Ran is usually very soft-hearted, but once she makes up her mind about something, she will never give in.
The system had no choice but to agree.
Who made her its host?
As soon as the props were exchanged, Sheng Ran teleported to the edge of a cliff.
At first she was quite puzzled as to why the raven would come to such a place.
Later I found that it looked familiar.
This is where she first met Raven.
I just looked around and as expected, I found the tall and lonely figure of the raven nearby.
He came here alone to relax? What a dull guy.
Why not share his worries with her? After all, she is his wife!
Sheng Ran walked up quickly and was already out of breath when she got close to Raven.
Raven was completely stunned. He never expected that Sheng Ran would follow him and even chase him all the way here.
"...Master, Master?" He blinked his long eyelashes slowly, and his deep and beautiful eyes looked at her with disbelief.
Seeing Sheng Ran gasping for breath, Raven panicked for a moment: "Why aren't you eating?"
Sheng Ran looked at him unhappily, finally with a hint of resentment in her eyes.
She wanted to ask why he didn't go to eat!
Raven couldn't help but hold Sheng Ran's hand. After a long silence, he realized that there was no way to understand Sheng Ran's feelings now.
Recalling Pei Xiaoxing's words, he couldn't help but stare at Sheng Ran's lips.
But there is a way...
Raven felt an itch in his heart and suddenly felt a little unbearable.
But no—
The master won't allow it.
What's more, Raven could already understand what Sheng Ran wanted to express from her expression.
She seemed to be blaming him for leaving without saying a word.
He also seemed very curious as to why he would behave so abnormally just because of Zhu Jiuyin's words that it was no big deal.
The raven actually understood everything.
He has always been the most disdainful of explanations, but he could not ignore the caring eyes of his wife.
Raven took a deep breath and said, "I'm not angry with Zhu Jiuyin."
Sheng Ran held his hand and wrote, [Then why?]
[Do you feel offended when people mention your background?]
[Do you know something but have been hiding it from me?]
"I didn't," Raven retorted quickly.
He never hid anything from his master.
Raven turned his eyes away slightly and said softly, "I don't know, and I don't want to know."
This answer made Sheng Ran stunned for a while. She couldn't help but frown and asked further, "What do you mean by 'don't want to know'?"
Raven suddenly fell silent and just shook his head lightly, "Don't bother exploring this matter anymore."
Moreover, he really didn't like the feeling of being the center of conversation.
Raven never felt important in any circumstances.
He was even willing to be invisible and silently guard his master behind him.
It doesn't require that much attention.
——But Sheng Ran didn’t think so.
"If you find out your background, you'll have a home." Sheng Ran explained to him patiently.
She was also an orphan and had fantasized about meeting her biological parents countless times, but she never waited for that day until her death.
She wanted to help Raven fulfill her unfulfilled wish.
Raven suddenly choked for a moment, his voice rising a bit, as if trying hard to restrain himself, "But isn't my home you, Master?"
He was usually cold and emotionless. It was the first time Sheng Ran saw Raven so excited that she was unable to react for a moment.
Raven steadied his disordered breathing and said, "You still don't understand. I really don't need any other home besides yours."
I've been abandoned for so many years, what's the point in finding out my origins again now?
If he doesn't know what is waiting for him in the end, a so-called "home" won't be much good.
He was very worried that he would end up like Ling Rui, encountering a declining family that needed people to revitalize and dedicate themselves to it.
But Raven knew how selfish he was.
He didn't want to care about anyone else, he only wanted Sheng Ran.
He was afraid that he would eventually find his clan, but would be forced to go back to fulfill responsibilities and missions that had nothing to do with him.
The raven didn't want to be separated from its owner.
He would rather be an orphan and a raven for his whole life——
As long as I can be with Sheng Ran.
Sheng Ran opened her lips helplessly, not reacting for a moment.
Before coming here, she was puzzled and confused as to why Raven was unwilling to find out about his own life experience.
But now I seem to understand everything.
Who knows what he will face after finding his family and parents?
Sheng Ran suddenly didn't dare to gamble on this possibility, as she was also afraid that Raven would be wronged.
"Master... please, give me a name."
Amidst a myriad of complex emotions, Raven suddenly spoke.
They were standing at the foot of the cliff where they had first met, with clear water flowing past them and the air filled with the fragrance of the valley.
He still remembered that Sheng Ran also said that she wanted to give Raven a name, but he shook off her hand without even thinking and refused coldly.
But now, times have changed.
He turned into a raven and asked Sheng Ran to give him a name.
He spoke again with difficulty, his tone full of earnestness.
"Give me a name, please."
