Chapter 34: We can no longer hear the wife’s voice!
When Ling Rui saw the first sentence, his heart jumped into his throat and he almost fainted.
I thought Sheng Ran was talking to me.
Wife, wife, didn't you say you'd wait until we were all clear before dissolving the engagement? Why so suddenly? He doesn't want to leave at all... He's not clamoring to leave anymore!
Ling Rui even clenched his fists to prevent Sheng Ran from continuing to write.
"My wife can't push me away..." He spoke in a muffled voice, his tone extremely aggrieved.
Didn't I come to pick Huaijun up today? Why is he involved again?
He has been so obedient recently and his wife still needs someone to take care of her, how can he leave!
Ling Rui clenched his fists tightly, and only opened them again after Sheng Ran glared at him. He waited reluctantly for her to finish writing, his heart pounding with anxiety.
It was not until I saw the four words "tell it to Huaijun" that I finally felt relieved.
"Huaijun," he finally looked up, his eyes becoming more complicated, announcing his wife's decision.
"My wife agrees to dissolve the marriage with you, but she won't let you go until she cures you."
Huaijun was stunned for a moment, "What did you say?"
He didn't understand at first.
In this world, a marriage contract has only benefits and no harm for females.
Even if you don't like someone, you can just remove him/her directly, and your rights will still be protected.
From ancient times to the present, few females have taken the initiative to terminate the relationship, and few males have been able to do so successfully.
Besides, what does it mean to cure him?
He had given up on himself a long time ago.
Irreversible damage has been done to both the face and the throat.
Even the most advanced medical skills cannot cure it.
He even planned to live a masked life from now on and not talk to anyone.
Why does Sheng Ran say that she can cure him?
Could it be... another excuse to keep him trapped?
Huaijun didn't believe it, but soon after, she was taken to the marriage contract platform.
It was not until the elder who managed the marriage contract asked him to sign a divorce contract that he found a sense of absurd reality in the whole incident.
Huai Jun could never have imagined that his first stop after coming out of that cold and dirty dungeon would be here.
——He actually got the divorce agreement so easily?
The Turtle Elder on the stage lived for a full 361 years. He had received countless newlyweds and handled countless marriage contracts.
This is the first time I've seen someone come to process a contract termination.
He squinted his eyes as he looked at the man and woman in front of him, muttering softly, "With such an ugly appearance, it's good enough that the female master is willing to marry him. How can you have the nerve to cancel the engagement?"
Sheng Ran looked at Elder Turtle in front of her with dissatisfaction, and moved her body to block Huai Jun.
What is this old man saying!
She signed her name without hesitation.
Huai Jun paused and wrote the first stroke hesitantly.
"Why did you do this?" He couldn't help but feel curious.
There was also a subtle change in the look in his eyes when he looked at Sheng Ran.
Remembering that she couldn't speak, Huaijun wondered whether he should open his palm and listen to her.
"I've already told you that my wife loves you and feels she's wronged you in the past, so she's letting you go free. That's the only reason!" Ling Rui didn't give him a chance and answered for him, "Isn't it good enough to let you get what you wanted?"
Huaijun pursed her lips and signed her name with mixed feelings at the elder's urging.
Everything was beyond his expectations.
"Congratulations on regaining your freedom." The elder celebrated perfunctorily.
This is a rare event that only happens once in a thousand years, so we should invite everyone to come and see the excitement.
But this male beast looks so scary that looking at it for even a second will give you nightmares.
He'd better not ask people to come and watch.
Sheng Ran brought Huai Jun back to the inn.
This time when they came to Beining, they had to spend a lot of money. They were frugal in everything and only booked one room for the three of them, but they couldn't let Huaijun down.
Sheng Ran helped him book a separate room.
After sending him to the door, Sheng Ran didn't even plan to follow him in. She just gave him some money and turned away.
This time, it was Ling Rui who helped her explain, "My wife has to go to the morning market tomorrow to do business, and she also has to go to the clinic to help Tu Shanyi pay. She doesn't have time to save you for now."
"Take this silver and settle yourself for a few days. Once we return to the end of the chapter, she will do her best to treat you."
"Your injuries will heal in a week or a month at the least. Once you're healed, you can go anywhere. She won't care."
Huaijun seemed to have a sudden difficulty in understanding.
"She knows how to run a business? And she's planning to save Tu Shanyi? And... you mean, she has a way to heal my face and throat?"
Ling Rui hummed a few times, "Believe it or not."
There were only three male beasts left at the scene. Although they were not familiar with each other, they had suffered together after all.
Huaijun didn't understand why Huaijun and Raven hadn't torn off their disguise until this moment.
"Tell me the truth, did she threaten you with something, forcing you to pretend to be subservient to her?"
Ling Rui pushed him unhappily: "Are you sick?"
Anyway, Huaijun has already dissolved his engagement with his wife, and they don't need to live together in the future.
Ling Rui didn't have a good face towards him at all.
"My wife is indeed mute, unable to speak and express her good intentions to you, but she has demonstrated everything through her actions. Besides, can't you hear what my wife is saying? How dare you question her?"
Pei Xiaoxing, Ling Rui, and Raven, the three of them.
Even if he doubted Sheng Ran's intentions, after hearing her inner thoughts, he would still observe her skeptically for a few days.
Only Huaijun, this damn mermaid, didn't leave his wife any leeway at all, which made her so sad.
"What's in your mind?" Huai Jun asked suddenly.
This question stumped Ling Rui.
"It's... mind reading." He said in surprise, "We beast husbands have suddenly awakened an ability to hear our wives' thoughts."
He suddenly realized something and quickly added, "So you really can't hear it?"
The raven also sensed something was amiss. "Could it be that he and his master have broken off their engagement, and so he can't hear it?"
Huaijun only said: "From the beginning to the end, I have never heard the voices of your heart."
He even almost forgot Sheng Ran's voice.
Ling Rui scratched his hair impatiently, "I see, maybe you weren't with your wife at that time, so you didn't awaken."
"No, it's not." Raven interrupted him, "Think carefully, did we hear it just now?"
Ling Rui suddenly panicked, "It seems, it seems like it's been a long time..."
"I could still hear her in the tunnel today, but only one sentence. After I saw Huai Jun, there was no more." Raven analyzed calmly, "She had such a big emotional fluctuation, it's impossible that she didn't have a single thought in her mind."
"It's over." Ling Rui's emotions were a little broken, and he said frantically, "We can't hear the wife's voice anymore!"
He always knew that there were still many unresolved issues between them.
Now he couldn't even hear Sheng Ran's inner voice, and he couldn't understand her anymore.
What if his wife really asked him to leave?
He doesn't want to leave!
Raven remained calm. He dragged Ling Rui to another deserted corner to discuss things, obviously excluding Huai Jun, the abandoned husband.
"Don't worry, I have a guess." He lowered his voice, "Perhaps the master is now able to speak, so our mind-reading ability has disappeared."
“That’s a good thing.”
