Chapter 119 "Can you really speak on your own?"
While the beastly husbands were holding a small meeting, Sheng Ran was also thinking a lot by herself.
In fact, Pei Xiaoxing guessed correctly.
Tu Shanyi’s departure was indeed a huge blow to Sheng Ran.
She cares not only about this person, but more about this matter.
It was only today that Sheng Ran realized that for those who kept saying they wanted to stay, if they wanted to leave, it would only take a moment.
The same goes for Tushan Yi and the other beastly husbands.
Life had been so smooth during this period that Sheng Ran had let go of her most basic suspicion of beastly husbands.
She sat on the bed in frustration, thinking for a long time, and finally said to the system, "It seems that I still can't rely too much on these men."
[The host is right, I support the host! ]
The system is like a brainless braggart, it just responds to whatever Sheng Ran says.
Sheng Ran pulled her lips speechlessly. Could it please talk less nonsense?
I still have to find a way to grow up and become independent.
[I want to heal my throat as soon as possible. I want to learn to speak!]
In just the quarter of an hour of thinking, Sheng Ran had already made a decision.
She walked over to the mirror and looked at herself carefully, placing her hand on her throat to feel for any changes in the vocal area.
"ha……"
She opened her mouth, but only a breath came out.
Sheng Ran did not give up. She adjusted the position of her voice little by little, trying to regain the feeling of speaking she had once learned.
The mechanical sound of the system still "encouraged" me in my mind.
[Host, come on! Host, come on! ]
Sheng Ran finally rolled her eyes at the air in annoyance.
"You should get some work done. Didn't you promise to get your throat checked out for treatment? Any results yet?"
The system's voice suddenly stopped, and it was as quiet as a quail, not daring to say a word.
Sure enough, we still have to deal with it by doing something it can't do.
Her mind finally became clear, and Sheng Ran was able to practice without distraction.
However, the system didn't remain silent for two seconds before it spoke weakly again—
[Host, although I haven't found it yet... I have a preliminary guess.]
[I've detected that your appearance has completely recovered, and your love value is still increasing. I believe it will be of other use.]
I suspect that these issues in your body recovered one by one, starting with your eyes, then your face—if that logic holds, your throat would be next.
Sheng Ran listened carefully and quickly came to a conclusion.
[——So, do I want to heal my throat, or do I need to leave them?]
The system hummed twice, "...This is my current guess. In the meantime, you must continue to use your Love Points to redeem healing potions to prevent your throat from deteriorating further while it's recovering."
Sheng Ran pursed her lips and suddenly lost the desire to speak.
What? I just decided to become independent again, but I didn’t expect that I still need to rely on those beastly husbands to heal my throat!
The slap in the face came so quickly that Sheng Ran sat back on the bed in frustration, too lazy to continue practicing.
All the efforts just now were in vain. Who knew that the recovery mechanism of the throat was so rogue!
Just then, the sound of the wooden door being pushed was heard.
Sheng Ran was in a bad mood today and didn't want to stay with any beastly husband, so she had already locked the door in advance.
I didn't expect that someone would find me.
Sheng Ran raised her head and looked towards the door. The heavy wooden door had been pushed out of shape, but it was still locked and could not be opened.
Who among them could it be?
Sheng Ran finally couldn't help but stood up and walked slowly to the door.
"Wife, are you in there? Why is the door locked?" Ling Rui said anxiously, knocking on the door twice in short, forceful swipes. "Please let us in. We're worried about you being alone."
From the word "we" from Ling Rui's mouth, Sheng Ran could tell that there was more than just him.
At this rate, if she doesn't respond, the door of the inn will probably be lost, and they will have to pay compensation.
In desperation, she finally unlocked the door and let the beastly husband in.
Sheng Ran was stunned until she saw the five people in front of her.
No, why are you all here?
Sheng Ran stood there in a daze, her expression frozen into a parted lips, her hands holding the door lock and key motionless, only her pair of black and bright eyes moved slightly, roaming over everyone.
The wife was in better condition than they had imagined. She wasn't crying, nor did she look haggard. It seemed that their visit was a bit of a disturbance.
All the beastly husbands seemed to be choked, and suddenly didn't know how to explain their behavior of blocking the door and pushing and knocking on it.
Will it disturb my wife's rest?
When the five male beasts thought of this, they felt uneasy. They pulled their heads back and turned their eyes away in embarrassment, each one busier than the other.
The scene was awkwardly quiet until a voice suddenly broke the silence.
——"What are you doing?"
Sheng Ran spoke subconsciously, her voice light and pleasant, with a hint of coquettishness.
The moment the words fell, a hint of shock flashed across everyone's expression.
Everyone present was silent for a few seconds, their breathing half-held.
After a long time, the beastly husbands came forward excitedly.
"Wife, you can speak again!"
"When did your throat get better? Just now?"
"This time it's a complete sentence! That's a huge improvement over before!"
"My dear wife, can you say anything else?"
In addition, Yun Ling's mind was quickly occupied by another agreement.
He hurried forward and held Sheng Ran's hand, "Master, you can finally speak. You...don't forget what you promised me."
Sheng Ran stood there at a loss, blinking frantically without giving any response.
Yun Ling's heart sank, and his expression was a little hurt. "You clearly promised me that, don't you remember?"
Yun Ling reminded Sheng Ran implicitly that it was rare and awkward.
He regarded the agreement between him and his master as very private and did not want to share it with the others.
But if I don't say it directly, I'm worried that Sheng Ran won't remember it.
Yun Ling looked at Sheng Ran earnestly, so anxious that he was almost speechless. He wanted to just take Sheng Ran away alone and make her listen to his master carefully.
Unexpectedly, she quickly added, "I haven't forgotten."
Of course Sheng Ran hadn't forgotten, she was just still in shock.
She had no idea how to answer the series of questions the beastly husbands had just asked her.
She herself didn't realize how she could suddenly speak.
[Host, I guessed correctly. In the half hour you were apart from them just now, I don't know what those beastly husbands did, but their love points all increased by five points!]
[As soon as your throat is full, you can speak again. There is a connection between the two! ]
Sheng Ran calmed her breathing and quickly persuaded herself to digest the news.
Her heart was beating fast, and excitement came up belatedly. Then she grabbed Yun Ling's hand, and stared at him with her eyes as bright as stars.
Then, he curled the corners of his lips in relief.
"Yun Ling."
"Your name is Yun Ling."
With a smile between her lips and teeth, she pronounced the name word by word.
——This name is of great significance to both her and him.
At this moment, Yun Ling's dark and deep eyes seemed to be lit up by a star.
He looked at Sheng Ran in disbelief, his ears felt hot and his heartbeat was as heavy as a drum.
"Owner……"
"Are you really able to speak on your own?"
Sheng Ran is actually still not sure, she can only say that at present, this ability has not disappeared.
She turned her eyes and then met four pairs of expectant eyes, all looking at her in unison.
Sheng Ran paused for a moment, glanced at their faces, and couldn't help laughing.
She was practically surrounded by their powerful gazes. It was as if the four of them represented four words:
I want it too!
