Chapter 152 "On your birthday, I'll give you a big surprise"
"You...your name is Sheng Ran?"
The guard's voice stuttered, his eyes fixed on Sheng Ran's face.
In the sunlight, Sheng Ran had fair skin and delicate eyebrows and eyes. Although she didn't dress up much, she looked better than those carefully dressed female beasts in the central city.
How could she be like the legendary "ugly and stupid second daughter of the Sheng family"?
Sheng Ran hadn't realized that the change in her appearance had shocked the guard, and she tilted her head in confusion.
What's going on?
The beastly husbands around him reacted.
Ling Rui raised his chin proudly, his lion's tail almost reaching the sky.
Their wives are so beautiful, let’s see who dares to call her “ugly bitch” from now on!
Yun Ling felt a little uncomfortable.
How could these vulgar beasts dream of having his master?
He moved calmly and stood in front of Sheng Ran.
The guard still leaned forward to look, turning the invitation over and over again to examine it.
Is this Sheng Ran?
Could it be that after being exiled to Beining City, she also learned the art of disguise?
——No, impossible!
The guard shook his head, his expression suddenly changing, as if he suddenly figured something out.
"No! You must have forged your identity! The Sheng Ran in the rumor is an ugly woman, and now she's mute and can't speak. You're so beautiful, how could it be her?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the queue looked over and started talking at once:
"Yeah, I heard that the second young lady of the Sheng family is very ugly and mute. How could she be so beautiful?"
"Could it be that she is trying to sneak in by pretending to be the Saint's sister?"
"Brother Guard, you have to check it out and don't let the bad guys in to cause trouble!"
Sheng Ran widened her eyes when she heard this.
No, this guard's train of thought is so unique!
He has a very rich imagination. He would rather believe that it is a fake identity than believe that she is Sheng Ran herself?
What's more, she is indeed mute. Didn't you see that she couldn't utter a single word when she wanted to speak?
Zhu Jiuyin was furious after hearing this. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to argue with the guard: "Can you read it? This invitation is real! My wife is Sheng Ran! All your rumors are fake!"
But Zhu Jiuyin was a stranger, and when they heard him call Sheng Ran "wife", the people around him were even more excited.
"The aura of this male beast is so strange!"
"Yeah, they don't look like they're from Central City!"
"Look at the horns on his head. Is that... a dragon? I've never seen a dragon in Central City! These must be foreign orcs. Don't let them in!"
Zhu Jiuyin had never been treated like this since the end of the chapter. He was furious. There were only a bunch of ignorant orcs living in the central city!
He turned around and wanted to look for Pei Xiaoxing. Even if this group of people didn't know his current wife or the people around her, they should at least know Pei Xiaoxing!
Isn’t he the young master of the Pei family?
The other beastmen also looked at Pei Xiaoxing and pushed him forward.
Someone around him did recognize him: "Hey! Young Master Pei! Isn't he... the beastly husband of that ugly woman?"
Zhu Jiuyin snorted lightly, finally someone noticed.
Unexpectedly, the next second, they heard them shouting loudly: "So this young master of the Pei family dared to have an affair while married, and even openly occupied someone else's identity to attend the birthday banquet of the Holy Female!"
“???”
Zhu Jiuyin couldn’t understand, are these orcs pig beasts?
Pigmon can’t be so stupid!
The men continued talking.
"Yes, no matter how vicious that useless woman is, she is still the Saint's sister and Pei Xiaoxing's legitimate wife. To be treated like this is simply an insult!"
"They say the Pei family has been loyal for generations, but I think that's bullshit! This Pei Xiaoxing is a hypocrite!"
"This girl, too, looks as beautiful as a fairy, but who knew she was so vicious. Not only did she steal someone's beastly husband, she even impersonated him!"
Ling Rui was completely dumbfounded after hearing what he heard. Could it be that there was something mixed in the water in the central city? The people here are too stupid!
Yun Ling couldn't bear to hear Sheng Ran being scolded, and was about to step forward to argue with her, but Sheng Ran held him back, shook her head at the guard, and motioned for her to leave.
It would be fine if she just got a few words said to her, but if she stayed any longer, who knows what kind of reputation Pei Xiaoxing would have!
The reputation of the entire Pei family might be ruined.
Sheng Ran felt helpless and amused. How could such a thing happen to her?
She knew that arguing now would only attract more onlookers, which would be counterproductive, so it would be better to wait until her shift changed and try again.
Seeing her leave with a guilty conscience, the guard snorted smugly, "I told you, it must be fake! Even if you look pretty, you can't lie!"
“…”
Just think of it as a compliment to her.
Sheng Ran and his group retreated to the shade of a tree not far away.
Ling Rui was still furious: "This group of people have said all kinds of speculations, how could they not think that my wife has only restored her appearance!"
Yun Ling leaned against the tree, a mocking smile playing on his lips. "Maybe they've never seen a beautiful female beast in their lives, so they think all beautiful things are fake."
Huaijun looked at Sheng Ran, his eyes full of heartache: "I'm sorry for putting you in such a difficult position."
Sheng Ran shook her head. She didn't feel wronged, she just found it funny.
It’s a pity that my throat can’t make any sound now, and I can only squeeze out a muffled hum.
At this moment, the bell on her waist suddenly shook, making a clear and pleasant sound, as if it was smiling for her.
She stiffened slightly, then picked up the bell and looked at it in surprise.
Is it Tu Shanyi?
Is Tu Shanyi smiling?
They are already close to the central city, and Tu Shanyi and her perception should be stronger.
Why didn't I hear him speak?
Sheng Ran looked the bell up and down, tapped it twice in disbelief, and was wondering why there was no movement when she heard a soft "hiss" unexpectedly.
"My dear wife, it hurts! Stop hitting me!"
Tu Shanyi's voice came out suddenly, and Sheng Ran was so scared that she almost dropped the things in her hand.
After a long time, he guiltily touched the place he had just slapped, and his ears turned a little red.
What's going on? This bell can not only transmit sound, but also transmit sensory perception?
Tu Shanyi seemed to understand her thoughts and smiled casually, "The closer we are, the more we can communicate."
"Just like now, I can still smell the fragrance of my wife."
After she finished speaking, she heard the person on the other end take a deep breath, and he was openly sniffing her!
Sheng Ran's grip on the bell tightened a little. This Tu Shanyi is really shameless!
Sheng Ran was so angry that she wanted to throw the bell away, but she couldn't bear to do so, so she could only hold it in her hand with gritted teeth.
Unfortunately, she couldn't speak now, and communicating with Tu Shanyi became even more difficult, otherwise she would have scolded him.
Not only that, Sheng Ran had a lot of things she wanted to ask him.
I want to ask him where he is now and when we can meet again.
Sheng Ran drooped her eyelashes in disappointment and unconsciously stroked the bell with her fingertips.
Tu Shanyi seemed to have seen through the twists and turns in her heart, and his voice suddenly softened and became extremely gentle.
"My dear wife, I'm in Central City. We'll meet soon."
"On your birthday, I will definitely give you a big surprise."
Sheng Ran pondered this sentence in confusion.
What does the Saint's birthday have to do with her?
