Chapter 50: The red figure pounces on Sheng Ran
Sheng Ran was stunned when she heard these words in a daze.
At first I thought I was asleep and dreaming.
What is the raven talking about? What is dirty?
Didn't she let him sleep with her to protect her safety? Since there were two beds, why did he have to squeeze into one?
[Host... I might not mean just that.] The system softly prompted, then quickly logged off.
Sheng Ran covered her face and thought for a while, not understanding why anyone would like to be squeezed and pressed down to sleep all night.
Could it be that Raven has never slept in a bed since childhood and lacks a sense of security, so he likes the feeling of being wrapped?
Sheng Ran found a seemingly reasonable reason for him, but in the end she softened her heart and moved in quietly.
Fortunately, the bed he bought was big enough for two people to sleep on.
The raven still spread its wings, "Master, please sleep with this as a cushion."
Sheng Ran: “…”
Really good.
She didn't refuse and lay down on him like she did last night.
[Sleep now and cherish it. After we separate, I guess you will never be able to sleep on wings as soft as these again.]
In this position, Sheng Ran was completely sleeping in Raven's arms, and physical contact was inevitable. These words in her heart reached Raven's ears very clearly.
His body stiffened and he didn't know what to say.
She just... doesn't want him that much?
Raven actually understood that Sheng Ran did not intend to keep any beast husband around, and it was not targeting him alone.
But I still can't stop feeling sad inside.
If they were also divorced by their master like Huaijun, would their master still find a new beastly husband?
As soon as this thought popped up, Raven had an answer in his mind.
He can accept it.
His requirements were not high. He just wanted to continue to stay by Sheng Ran's side as a personal servant. Raven had never dreamed of becoming a real beast husband.
He doesn't deserve it.
The master's beastly husband should be from a prominent family and a powerful clan, but he has nothing behind him. If others knew about it, it would only bring shame to Sheng Ran.
Sheng Ran kept turning over and over in his arms, as if she couldn't fall asleep.
The raven thought that he should take this opportunity to say a few more words to his master.
He was not used to revealing his inner thoughts to others, but when facing Sheng Ran, he learned to express all his thoughts.
Just as he was about to speak, Sheng Ran suddenly raised her face from his arms, grabbed his hand and wrote.
[Do you know what happens to Pei Xiaoxing on a full moon night?]
When Ling Rui was recounting the entire story of the Heart Scale incident, all the key information he mentioned was spoken by Raven.
He usually stays quietly in the dark, but seems to know more than them.
Things that could not be obtained from the system or Pei Xiaoxing himself might be able to be learned from Raven.
Sheng Pan looked at him expectantly.
Raven's heart was completely filled with bitterness because of these words.
It was him who was lying in the same bed with Sheng Ran, but she was thinking about another beastly husband. Raven was almost depressed to death.
What he was thinking about in his heart just now was his master!
"I don't know." Raven's jawline was tense. He threw down these three words and pursed his lips, saying no more.
He even withdrew his hand, not giving Sheng Ran any chance to ask further questions.
Sheng Ran was so focused on thinking about Pei Xiaoxing that she didn't notice his little emotions. She thought that Raven really didn't know, so she could only nod disappointedly.
It seems that there are indeed some very private reasons, and the answer can only be pried out from Pei Xiaoxing later.
Putting this matter aside for the time being, Sheng Ran started to worry about Huai Jun again.
The auction is still ten days away, and buying it back at a high price is the last option.
Sheng Ran's preferred plan was to find a sunny day to go to Beining and find a way to get the scales back from Zuixianlou.
But the weather at the end of the chapter is a mystery.
Sheng Ran suddenly began to believe in the so-called mountain god.
Otherwise, such changeable climate cannot be explained by common sense!
Raven lay beside Sheng Ran in agony.
He knew everything she was thinking at the moment.
He really wanted to ask his wife to stop worrying about other beastly husbands around him. Huai Jun was even just a former beastly husband.
There was not a single word about him, and for the first time, Raven regretted having this ability.
The next morning, a new busy day began at home.
Sheng Ran still went to the yard to pick herbs to make medicine, while the male beasts were doing housework and preparing breakfast in the kitchen.
Everyone clearly noticed that Raven looked extremely bad, as if he had not slept well the whole night.
Pei Xiaoxing observed silently, walked over to him, and said a few words of concern, "Are you feeling unwell? Why don't you take a rest and we can do it."
Then, pretending to be casual, he revealed his true purpose, "If accompanying your wife to sleep is too tiring for you, why not let me do it?"
"..." Raven was very unhappy with Pei Xiaoxing at this moment, and only squeezed out one word, "Get lost."
Huaijun was shocked by his bad attitude and couldn't help but look up at him.
Pei Xiaoxing was the one who took the best care of him among the three beastly husbands. Huai Jun couldn't help but speak up for him, "He was kind-hearted."
The raven's glance was even more dissatisfied. "What does it have to do with you?"
It was like a powder keg early in the morning, and the atmosphere in the kitchen dropped to freezing point.
After a while, he realized that Raven was not attacking indiscriminately. He was willing to say a few words to Ling Rui.
Ling Rui spoke to ease the atmosphere, "Ah, it seems everyone knows I'm the easiest to get along with. Pei Xiaoxing, learn more from me in the future and build a beautiful family atmosphere together. That way, my wife will feel at ease..."
"What are you so happy about?" Raven interrupted expressionlessly, "The master was thinking about them all the time last night, which is why I was so upset."
"And you were not mentioned."
Ling Rui's smile froze.
The raven meant that he was not a threat, so he was being friendly to him.
……Depend on!
Why? Is it a mistake to be too carefree?
Ling Rui wanted to find an opportunity to get hurt and act miserable to win back his wife's attention.
Huai Jun was surprised to hear this. Was Sheng Ran thinking about getting the Heart-Protecting Scale back for him last night?
He was flattered and couldn't help but feel secretly happy like Pei Xiaoxing.
When we go out hunting today, we still act separately.
Taking into consideration that Ling Rui had been in the training ground for many years, had the most practical experience and the fastest reaction speed, Sheng Ran still entrusted him with the important task of going into the mountains.
This time, let him be with Raven so that they can take care of each other.
Sheng Ran continued to travel with Pei Xiaoxing, hunting within the tribe.
But somehow, an hour later, Raven joined them, saying that he had accidentally gotten separated from Ling Rui.
“…”
Pei Xiaoxing wanted to laugh after hearing this lame excuse.
It can also deceive the wife.
Sheng Ran was anxious for him to go back because the mountains were much more dangerous than the tribe, and Ling Rui might not be able to handle it alone.
Raven had already circled the mountain and explored it. "This mountain is rarely visited by people, so there are no assassins. Perhaps he was just mistaken yesterday."
Just as he finished speaking, a crisp "crackling" sound suddenly came from behind him - it was the sound of feet crushing dead branches, carrying a strong breath that did not belong to this forest.
The two beastmen instinctively looked around and prepared for battle.
Who said there are no assassins?! They even had the audacity to break into the tribe!
The atmosphere suddenly became solemn and murderous, and there was no trace of any supernatural power around. But before they could react, a red figure rushed straight towards Sheng Ran.
The weirdest thing is, no one knows where it came from.
