Chapter 43 You are beautiful
The atmosphere at the first dinner after returning home was very strange.
Ling Rui took the seat next to Sheng Ran, and seemed to have occupied her entire body.
Regardless of the presence of several other beastly husbands, he would hold Sheng Ran's hand from time to time, using poor excuses to make physical contact, "Wife, are you cold?"
It was the transition period between autumn and winter, and the temperature was getting lower day by day. Zhangwei was at a much higher altitude than Beining, and the cold was even more severe.
But you don't have to ask so many times, right?
Sheng Ran didn't feel that cold at first, but after hearing him talk so much, she couldn't help but curl up and feel a bit cold.
"Wife, let me warm you up." Seeing the opportunity, Ling Rui didn't even plan to eat. He threw away his chopsticks and wrapped his palm around her left hand.
A furry head also came closer, and the golden hair rubbed Sheng Ran's neck so hard that it made it itchy.
[What's wrong with this lion again...Hold on, don't hit him, don't let him get too excited!]
Sheng Ran could only step back a little and eat quietly with her free right hand.
For some reason, Ling Rui's eyes lit up and he clenched his hands tighter, as if afraid that she would run away.
It really works!
As long as there is physical contact, I can hear my wife’s inner voice again!
He was ecstatic, and in front of all the beastly husbands, he suddenly said, "Wife, how about I warm your bed today?"
Before he could finish his words, several eyes turned towards him.
Pei Xiaoxing didn't expect that Ling Rui would become so competitive and aggressive after he had been away for a while.
His tone was unhappy, "Have you lost your mind? Don't do anything that would offend your wife."
Ling Rui was indeed impulsive just now, but he had already said it and there was no reason to take it back.
He explained confidently: "Huai Jun is here, there's no room for us at home, I'm going to make a room for you and you should thank me!"
There really is no extra room in the house.
This thatched hut was the residence assigned to Sheng Ran after his exile. It was shabby and small, with only three empty rooms.
A few days ago, Raven was taken home by Sheng Ran, who barely cleaned up a storage room, and that was when he finally had his room.
Now Huaijun is here again and there is no room for him to stay.
Sheng Ran paused before realizing the problem. She couldn't help but look at Ling Rui's face, studying his expression, as if she was thinking about his suggestion.
Seeing that there was a chance, Ling Rui immediately took advantage of the situation and pursued the victory.
"Besides, the weather is cold, and our house isn't well insulated. If I could warm your bed every day, you'd sleep more comfortably." He promised solemnly, "Don't worry, my dear wife, I won't do anything you don't like."
Before Sheng Ran could respond, two cold snorts fell from the table.
Such an impolite voice would not come from Pei Xiaoxing.
When I turned around, I saw the disdainful faces of Raven and Huai Jun.
Huaijun was sitting at the very edge and had no intention of listening to their conversation, but she inevitably heard it.
Only Ling Rui could believe his words. Bed warmer? How high-sounding.
After meeting her gaze, Huaijun quickly turned his head away to reduce his presence.
Raven said calmly, "Can you be more fake?"
"If you're really worried about not having enough room, I can move out." He said nonchalantly, "I'm not used to sleeping in a bed."
After saying that, without caring about everyone's reaction, Raven cleaned up the dishes and left.
It seems that he went straight to tidy up the house.
Huaijun moved his body, and his expression suddenly became stiff.
It was obvious that his arrival was unnecessary and brought a lot of trouble to this so-called home.
Ling Rui let out a faint lion's roar, gnashing his teeth in anger. With his plan ruined, he finally decided to settle down and eat.
Sheng Ran also casually took a few bites and quickly followed Raven.
No one knew where he went, but he had cleaned up the room. It seemed that he was planning to give it to Huaijun.
Sheng Ran felt unhappy. In fact, she could see that Raven hadn't placed anything here in the first place, as if he had no intention of staying here for long.
I could only sigh, accept the decision, and go to prepare the herbs for treatment.
Huaijun didn't expect the first treatment to come so soon.
He thought Sheng Ran would at least keep him trapped for a while before she would be willing to find a way to heal his injuries.
Did she really want him to leave?
Huaijun didn't believe it, but that was the fact.
He sat down obediently, watching Sheng Ran fiddling with the herbs in the bowl, and couldn't help but make small talk, "Where did you find this medicine? Is it really useful?"
Pei Xiaoxing, who was helping out, hummed softly and answered on his behalf, "My wife spent a lot of effort to buy this, so this matter must not be publicized."
He had discussed this with Raven long ago. Since Huaijun was no longer one of the beastly husbands, there was no need for him to know his wife's special traits.
Huai Jun frowned slightly, feeling as if the truth had been concealed from him, but he couldn't bring himself to ask more questions.
When Sheng Ran approached him, a faint scent of flowers and fruits went straight into her nostrils.
Huaijun felt a little uncomfortable, and then he felt a cool paste being applied to his face.
He subconsciously wanted to dodge, but Sheng Ran pinched his chin and straightened his face.
At this moment, Huaijun realized that his ugly face was completely exposed in front of this evil woman.
He suddenly forgot to breathe and dared not move.
Shame made Huai Jun feel ashamed. He tightened his fists little by little and managed to endure it, allowing Sheng Ran to do what she wanted.
In this position, he was forced to tilt his head back.
But completely different from what he had imagined, she did not show any disgust or disdain, not even the slightest sign of concealment.
It seemed as if there was really no discomfort and she accepted him completely.
When this thought came to his mind, Huaijun was so frightened that his heart began to beat erratically.
His eyes fell on Sheng Ran's face.
On the first day, I noticed that my face looked much better than I remembered.
She has a small face, delicate eyebrows and eyes, and her crystal clear pupils sometimes make people forget her dry and wrinkled skin, and sigh from the bottom of their hearts that she is beautiful.
Huaijun unconsciously observed her every move, and finally even enjoyed this unfamiliar meticulousness and tenderness.
Is this really Sheng Ran?
After applying the entire layer of medicine and waiting for a long time, the herbs were almost dry. Sheng Ran used a towel soaked in warm water to wash them off for Huai Jun.
Pei Xiaoxing's sharp gaze was so noticeable that Huai Jun knew that he had seen her reaction clearly, and she felt ashamed and regretful for a moment.
He took the handkerchief and said in a hoarse voice, "I can do it myself."
Sheng Ran nodded and handed it to him, but did not leave immediately. She carefully observed his face.
After applying the medicine, it wasn't very effective. His scars turned red and looked even worse.
Huaijun obviously also saw his current self in the mirror, with his lip lines straightened.
Sheng Ran hurriedly took out a pen and ink and said, "This is the first time I applied the medicine. It's normal. It will get better later."
Huai Jun didn't care whether this was an excuse or a consolation, and couldn't help asking: "...Aren't you afraid of my current appearance?"
Sheng Ran was stunned at first, then she gently raised the corners of her lips and wrote this line of words -
[I'm uglier than you, but you don't dislike me, do you?]
Huaijun's heart was inexplicably gripped, and he subconsciously shook his head, "No——"
"You are beautiful."
