Chapter 118 None of us will leave.
Pei Xiao spoke very politely, but his attitude was very firm.
He didn't want his wife to suffer such harm again.
The other male beasts did not remain silent.
"Anyway, I won't leave." Zhu Jiuyin, who arrived last, was the first to speak.
Sheng Ran is the only person he knows in this world.
He finally managed to stay, and he won't leave unless he has no other choice!
"Me too." Huai Jun lifted his thin white eyelids, looked at him calmly, and then added, "I will ask my wife to renew the marriage contract."
The others looked at him, carefully examining Huaijun's expression, slightly surprised.
There was no sign of Huaijun joking in either his tone or expression.
He had this idea a long time ago.
He wants to become his wife's beastly husband again.
Although Pei Xiaoxing had guessed it early on, he still asked uncertainly, "This may be your last chance to be free. Do you really not want it?"
Huai Jun didn't hesitate at all and replied, "Do you think we have no freedom when we are with our mistress?"
He has never recognized the concept of "free agency".
Who says that a person is free when he lives alone in the world, but will be bound after marrying a wife?
On the contrary, Huaijun believes that only by staying with Sheng Ran can he be truly happy.
"The Deep Sea Kingdom is no longer my home. I will never go back."
The other beastmen looked at him hesitantly, wanting to say something but stopping themselves.
Huaijun knew what they wanted to say.
"I know that the growing environment on the mainland isn't suitable for me." He secretly clenched his fists. "I'm already trying to find a way to awaken a second superpower besides my water-based superpower."
"I will do my best to protect my wife, just like you do."
Huaijun's identity as a mermaid is still too special. He needs water and a humid environment.
If he survives in the mainland country for a long time, his supernatural powers will weaken, and his physical signs will most likely drop below normal values.
But everyone heard the determination in his tone, and no one tried to dissuade him.
The other beastmen nodded and gave him a reassuring smile. "Okay, but you should prioritize protecting yourself first."
"My wife must also hope that you can live a normal and healthy life in the mainland."
Huaijun felt the warmth of home after a long time.
He had grown up in a family atmosphere of open and covert struggles, where the male beasts tried every possible means and method to gain the favor of Her Majesty the Queen.
Now that he has grown up and become someone else's beastly husband, the atmosphere at home is not as tense as he had imagined.
Although they are in a competitive relationship, they have the same goals and ideas——
They all think about making their wives happy.
So even for their wives, they will take extra care of each other.
Then Ling Rui said seriously, "I won't leave either."
"You are right. The journey ahead is still long. I will stay by my wife's side and escort her safely to Central City."
Pei Xiaoxing couldn't help but ask, "What happens after we get to the central city?"
They all knew Ling Rui's family situation.
The cat tribe was grateful to him. Although they did not give birth to him, they did their best to send all the good things to him and raised him for twenty years.
If the family needs him, Ling Rui should not sit idly by.
Ling Rui took a deep breath and continued, "I suddenly figured it out recently."
"The reason I've been troubled by this problem for so long is that my thinking was wrong from the beginning."
"Why do we have a preconceived notion that marrying and staying with my wife is contrary to my family's ambition to revive?"
"In the eyes of outsiders, my wife is ugly, stupid, and has no special abilities, but that's not the case."
"Our wife isn't as bad as the rumors say. On the contrary, she's beautiful, intelligent, gentle, and kind. Furthermore, her special physique is enough to prove she's an extraordinary talent."
"What I want to do is not to leave, but to clear my wife's name and grievances."
"It is an honor for our cat tribe to marry such a wife."
Ling Rui believed that as long as he helped Sheng Ran get rid of those unfounded labels on her, the people in the clan would not have any opinions about such a wonderful wife.
He can stay with his wife and still revitalize the cat tribe. These two things are not contradictory at all.
Ling Rui was talking about his own ideas and plans, but it effectively awakened the other beastly husbands.
Yes, they went to the central city to attend the Hongmen Banquet, and they shouldn't be in a passive, combative state.
They need to take the initiative, make some changes, and clear up the bad rumors about their wives from the outside world.
"You're right. My wife was convicted of giving Prince Situ Yu aphrodisiac juice and was exiled to Zhangwei."
"Those people keep saying that this juice is highly poisonous, not only hallucinogenic but also lethal."
"But—my wife doesn't have the means to obtain such a thing."
Whether in the past or now, the wife's life is simple and the people she comes into contact with are very limited.
Even taking my former wife as an example, with her brain at that time, she was simply not capable of getting such a thing; and with her courage at that time, she would never dare to kill anyone.
If you think about it carefully, this is not something she would do. There must be some clues behind it.
Ling Rui has always been considered a "simple-minded, strong-limbed" person, but no one expected that he could be so attentive when it comes to matters concerning his wife.
It was somewhat surprising that he was the first to discover this suspicious point and proposed to find out the truth.
"This time when we go back, we have to investigate thoroughly. There must be something wrong with Situ Yu."
Everyone gave each other a look of confirmation and boosted each other's morale.
Finally, all eyes fell on the silent male beast.
Only Yun Ling is missing.
This familiar scene made Yun Ling frown uncomfortably.
He hates being the center of attention and conversation the most.
Yun Ling sighed softly and expressed his attitude concisely.
"I have nothing to say. I have been with the Master the longest. Even if you all leave, I will not leave."
“…”
Everyone's expression was not right.
It's already this time, and this bird still wants to talk down to them.
What's wrong with Yun Ling's mouth? He can poison himself to death just by licking his lips!
"Can you please say something auspicious? Didn't anyone say they were leaving?"
Ling Rui said a few words to him in a bad mood, but the atmosphere became much more lively.
Pei Xiaoxing's expression softened a bit, and he chuckled to smooth things over. "Alright, let's go find my wife. Who's on duty to stay by her side tonight?"
As soon as this issue was mentioned, the group started to act stupid.
"I don't know. I think it was me."
"Stop talking nonsense, it's obviously me!"
"Can you even tell a word of truth from your mouth?"
In the end, no one was willing to give in. The five of them walked to Sheng Ran's door together and tacitly stopped talking.
Afraid of disturbing the people inside.
Since you both want to accompany your wife, let’s go together.
Just as they were about to push open the door, Zhu Jiuyin, who was in the lead, paused.
"You didn't eat, so you don't even have the energy?"
Yun Ling lost his patience and pushed him away and started to do it himself.
Unexpectedly, the wooden door of the inn did not move at all.
His expression froze for a moment, and he turned around and whispered, "My wife locked the door."
