Chapter 65 The Dog Finally Found Its Owner
It was rare to see Ling Rui so distraught, Sheng Ran couldn't help but raise her hand and smooth his messy blond hair.
What's wrong with this lion? What's making him unhappy?
Hearing this, Ling Rui was stunned.
He spent the whole night in struggle and pain. His chest felt like it was stuffed with a ball of burning cotton, and every breath was filled with burning anxiety.
I hardly slept a wink that night, and my heart was so filled with anger that it was on the verge of exploding.
In the early morning, I washed my face, suppressed all negative emotions, and knocked on the door as if nothing had happened.
But his wife seemed to... understand him and care about him far more than he imagined.
She actually discovered that something was wrong with him.
"I, I'm fine." Ling Rui turned his face away, still trying to be tough at this moment, but the next second he was speechless because of Sheng Ran's action.
Her fingertips rubbed the top of her head lightly, like a spring breeze blowing across the restless surface of a lake.
At this moment, the thousands of knots in Ling Rui's heart seemed to be gently relieved by these extremely gentle hands.
Ling Rui did not react for a long time. He only felt that the sharp anger was gradually melting away in the floral and fruity fragrance coming from his wife.
[Still unhappy?] Sheng Ran was distressed by his dullness. Something came to her mind, and she suddenly pulled the animal ears hidden in his golden hair with all her strength.
"hiss……"
Ling Rui's heart, which had just calmed down, fell to the bottom again, and was suddenly filled with grievances.
The wife is always kind and gentle when facing other beastly husbands, but why does she feel an irresistible pain when facing him?
Normally, Ling Rui would just regard this special thing as a hobby, but now he unconsciously became more interested in it.
He couldn't help but groan, his ears suddenly drooped, and his clenched fists trembled slightly.
"My dear wife, it hurts..." He complained in a low voice.
Sheng Ran couldn't help but panic, [It hurts? But I've never heard him say that before.]
[What's going on? This trick doesn't work anymore. Doesn't he usually love being bullied?]
When Ling Rui heard this, his eyes widened in surprise.
"My wife thinks I like her, so she treats me like this?"
Sheng Ran blinked in confusion. Isn't that right? Or does he not actually have that kind of special fetish?
"No, no, no, I like it!" Ling Rui explained excitedly, "I can like it from now on!"
This is simply a wonderful misunderstanding!
I don’t know what caused the wife to misunderstand, but Ling Rui suddenly didn’t want to correct it, so he just let the mistake go on!
This is a unique way of getting along between him and his wife, which no other beastly husband has!
His emotions were written all over his face, and Sheng Ran couldn't hide it. Seeing Ling Rui happy again, she couldn't help but pursed her lips and smiled.
So easy to coax.
He didn't take the initiative to tell her why he was unhappy, so Sheng Ran didn't ask any further questions. It was getting late, and it was time to go out to set up the stall.
Ling Rui stretched his neck to look into the room and saw Pei Xiaoxing who had just transformed from animal form into human form.
Was this wolf in animal form accompanying his wife last night? Humph, he's still a gentleman.
Ling Rui felt more at ease and decided not to worry about the future.
Raven and Huai Jun had also gotten up. The five of them packed up their things and set off.
This was the first time Huai Jun went out with Sheng Ran on business. Logically speaking, he was no longer qualified to follow her like the other three beastly husbands.
But Sheng Ran took the initiative to invite him to join them.
She took out a bag of fried sesame cakes and put one in each of their hands.
After eating, the things needed for setting up the stall were distributed to everyone.
Huaijun also has it.
Sheng Ran treated him equally, giving him something to do so that he didn't have to stand awkwardly in the middle, not knowing what to do.
This feeling is very unfamiliar to Huaijun.
Several other beast husbands came forward and talked a few words, trying to attract Sheng Ran's attention.
Only Huaijun followed her eagerly, and suddenly felt like a dog that finally found its master.
Looking back on this period of time, no matter what they did together, Sheng Ran never ignored his presence.
To her, it was perhaps just a casual gesture of kindness, but in Huaijun's heart, it was a level of fairness she had never experienced before.
Because he has been ignored, neglected and treated differently since he was a child.
He still remembered that a long time ago, when he was still living in the deep sea palace, he was not favored by the Queen Mother because of his face that looked very similar to his father's.
His Majesty the Sea King, as everyone calls him, is gentle, kind, and comparable to gods. He is the faith of all creatures in the deep sea.
But such a person who was kind to everyone was very mean to him. From childhood to adulthood, Huai Jun had never seen his mother smile at him.
As a result, later on, the relationship between the land and sea became tense, and he, who was only eight years old, was sent to the land as a hostage, becoming a prince in name only.
Huaijun kept wondering why it had to be him.
The Queen Mother had many children, and she always said that every princess and prince was her dearest to her heart, but in the end, she still sent the youngest one away even though she knew the situation was difficult.
When leaving home, Huaijun went to say goodbye to his mother.
His Majesty the Sea King, admired by everyone, sat on a high seat, looking down nonchalantly at his long nails.
Without even raising her eyelids, she said to an eight-year-old child, "Hurry up and leave. Finally, we don't have to see your troublesome face anymore."
It is precisely for this reason that Huaijun hates his own face the most, and that is why he is so cruel and merciless when he cuts it.
But ridiculously, he actually found a trace of peaceful warmth in Sheng Ran.
It turns out... you can get the same thing without fighting, waiting, or standing on tiptoe to please others.
He stared at Sheng Ran's back infatuatedly, as if something that had been blocking him for more than twenty years had cracked slightly at this moment.
A breeze blew in, bringing with it a strange urge that made me want to cry.
He himself didn't notice that something had changed quietly.
Following Sheng Ran in silence, the morning mist in Beining City had not yet dissipated. It was not until the moment they stopped that Huai Jun realized that they were already standing in front of Zuixian Tower.
The other beast husbands were equally puzzled. Ling Rui asked, "Wife, aren't we going to set up a stall to do business?"
Sheng Ran nodded and pointed to an open space next to the gate of Zuixian Tower, indicating that it was right here.
Pei Xiaoxing was slightly stunned, then finally understood what she meant, "My wife is planning to do business in front of Zuixianlou?"
Sheng Ran nodded seriously again.
When she came to Beining this time, her voice was still unable to make any sound on its own and she couldn't hawk her wares.
Not every time she could encounter a stupid bee beast like last time, helping her to attract business through reverse publicity.
She had to attract customers herself, and the best way Sheng Ran could think of was to take advantage of other people's locations and customer flow.
It just so happens that I still have a score to settle with Zuixianlou, so it would be better to offend them than to offend anyone else.
Stopping in front of the door of Zuixianlou, Sheng Ran turned around and spread out the braised food in the bamboo basket one by one.
Chicken feet and duck feet were stacked into neat hills, the thick marinade shone with an oily luster in the morning light, and the aroma of star anise and cinnamon spread with the morning breeze, like an invisible hook, luring the passing orcs to look back frequently.
She specially made a new wooden sign and wrote in charcoal "Excellent braised food, even fresher than the one in the building".
The edge of the wooden sign was deliberately rubbed with some of the wall dust from Zuixianlou, revealing a blatant provocation.
