Chapter 92: Wife... I have nowhere to go
The morning light shines on the Zhangwei tribe, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere.
Ling Rui saw Sheng Ran waiting for them at the door from afar, and the fatigue from fighting all night disappeared in an instant.
He was in a hurry and ran forward in two steps at a time, hoping to get back to Sheng Ran as soon as possible to act coquettishly and pitifully.
In his eyes, a caring look from Sheng Ran could make him willingly work for her, but he didn't know that someone had already tasted a sweeter and softer taste.
"Wife! We are back, and all the killers on the road have been dealt with!"
Ling Rui was running in the front, but he was still no match for the raven with its big wings.
A dark figure suddenly appeared before his eyes. Ling Rui was furious. Isn't it just a flying orc? Isn't it just a bird? What's so great about it!
He chased after him faster, trying to push Raven away, but the man stood motionless beside Sheng Ran, not giving up any space.
Being intercepted for no reason, if he didn't make some indirect accusations, he would be completely unrecognizable as Ling Rui.
But before he could say anything, he noticed that something was wrong with Raven's expression.
He stared at Pei Xiaoxing, his hanging hands clenched into fists, as if he was suppressing his temper.
Ling Rui was puzzled and had no time to care.
He quickly squeezed in between the two of them, took Sheng Ran's hand, and said a few kind words to her.
But when he got closer, he paused and blinked, "Wife, what's wrong with your lips? They're red and seem a little swollen..."
As soon as these words were spoken, Huai Jun, who was standing silently in the distance, looked over.
The gazes of several male beasts fell on Sheng Ran's lips. In the light sunlight, the red spot was particularly conspicuous.
Sheng Ran's face turned red, and she subconsciously raised her hand to block it, shook her head, and vaguely denied it.
Pei Xiaoxing forced his way in, protecting Sheng Ran behind him and blocking the others' inquiring gaze.
He answered in a steady voice, "Nothing. Probably because I traveled all night and the wind blew it away."
Raven snorted, "Nonsense."
"How can it be swollen like this due to the wind?" He stared closely at the back of Pei Xiaoxing, his eyes sweeping over Sheng Ran's red ears.
There was a hint of anger in those dark, sparkling eyes, but more of it was regret and unwillingness.
Why?
Ling Rui hadn't reacted to the situation yet, but seeing that Raven was not in a good state, he guessed that it was definitely not a good thing.
He stepped forward and grabbed Pei Xiaoxing's collar, "Mr. Pei! Are you bullying my wife?!"
Huai Jun also frowned, his watery eyes moved between Sheng Ran and Pei Xiaoxing, and he opened his lips several times.
He knew he had no position, but he still bit his tongue and spoke seriously: "What did he do to you?"
Finally, remembering that he couldn't get any results from Sheng Ran, he turned to Pei Xiaoxing and asked word by word, "What did you do to her last night?"
Pei Xiaoxing didn't say anything, but just moved Sheng Ran behind him to protect her.
He frowned helplessly, not knowing where to begin. He couldn't just say he'd accidentally taken the medicine and kissed his wife. Wouldn't that make them even more furious?
Just as he was trying to find a reasonable excuse to get away with it, he suddenly felt Sheng Ran's hand being pulled out of his palm.
He was still standing in front of her, with his back to her, so he couldn't see his wife's expression.
But the attitude conveyed by this action was obvious enough: she didn't want to be touched by him.
Pei Xiaoxing felt a sense of emptiness in his heart and stood there in a daze, feeling lost.
When he came to his senses, he turned around and saw Sheng Ran hurriedly returning to the room.
He lowered his eyelashes dejectedly, "...My wife has been busy all night, let her rest well first."
I don't know whether to tell everyone or explain it to myself.
Ling Rui became even more certain that nothing good happened last night.
When they were with their wives, each of them doted on and protected her. But Pei Xiaoxing was different. He didn't even cherish the chance to be alone with his wife!
He even made his wife angry!
He snorted in dissatisfaction and deliberately bumped Pei Xiaoxing's shoulder: "If my wife is wronged because of you again next time, my fist will not recognize the past friendship!"
The raven, who had been silent all the time, also took a step forward and caught up with Sheng Ran.
But when he passed by Pei Xiaoxing, he said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Shameless."
Huai Jun walked to Pei Xiaoxing with a complicated expression.
In order to stay with Sheng Ran, he deliberately built a good relationship with Pei Xiaoxing during this period.
The two have different personalities, but similar upbringings.
They seem glamorous and come from prominent families, but they are all abandoned by their families and countries.
Although they didn't expose each other, there has always been a tacit understanding between the two of them, and they can talk to each other.
Huai Jun was also trying every means to get more information about Sheng Ran from Pei Xiaoxing, wanting to know her likes, dislikes, and habits.
Before this, he even regarded Pei Xiaoxing as the only friend in this family.
But today, when he saw Sheng Ran's swollen lips, he felt a surge of nameless anger towards Pei Xiaoxing.
He is not a silly boy like Ling Rui who grew up carefree and was spoiled. Ever since Huai Jun could remember, he saw the queen mother bringing all kinds of male beasts back to the bedroom to do shameful things.
All the filth and mess happened in front of Huaijun without any hesitation. How could he not understand what this redness and swelling meant?
In his opinion, Pei Xiaoxing's behavior was simply a defilement of Sheng Ran.
"You'd better take care of yourself." Huai Jun's voice was cold and he didn't say anything else.
Pei Xiaoxing stood there, his eyes fixed on Sheng Ran's closed door.
He just felt like last night's snow was still falling on his body, icy and cold.
The wife was still angry.
The regret in his heart, mixed with the heat that had not yet completely dissipated, made it hard for him to breathe.
In the room.
Sheng Ran lay alone in bed, unable to calm down.
Her hand unconsciously touched her lips, and she suddenly threw back the quilt, stood up, and sat in front of the mirror.
No wonder everyone noticed it just now. Both the upper lip and the lower lip are red and swollen, plump and bright, which makes people imagine a lot.
This situation is really not something I can see in public. I need to find some medicine to apply to myself.
Before I could move, I heard a sudden knock on the door.
Thinking it was Pei Xiaoxing, Sheng Ran hurriedly looked in the mirror and adjusted her hair and clothes.
My ears started to feel hot unconsciously again.
As soon as I opened the door, I was unexpectedly met with Huai Jun's sparkling eyes.
His face hadn't recovered and was still covered in scars, but his eyes were surprisingly beautiful.
Sheng Ran curled her knuckles in confusion, not understanding why he came here.
Perhaps he didn't expect her to open the door immediately. Huai Jun was a little at a loss, "Wife——"
Huai Jun paused abruptly, his voice lowered a bit, as if he was not confident. "I brought some medicine. Apply it on your lips. It will heal."
Sheng Ran took the medicine jar unexpectedly, opened it and saw a transparent, viscous liquid inside.
Not knowing where this came from, Sheng Ran really wanted to go back and tell him that she had a way to solve it.
But Huaijun was completely unaware of her special physique and found medicine for her as soon as possible.
Seeing his cautious and tentative eyes, Sheng Ran suddenly felt that she shouldn't waste his kindness.
So I accepted it seriously, smiled and said, "Thank you very much."
After a moment, Sheng Ran found that Huai Jun had no intention of leaving, so she tilted her head inquiringly.
Huaijun did have something else to say.
He hesitated for a while, and finally mustered up the courage to speak.
"I don't want to continue treating my face."
Hearing these words suddenly, Sheng Ran widened her eyes in surprise, her face full of confusion.
"You don't need to bear any responsibility. This is my own decision."
"Don't waste your energy on me anymore. Just treat me like air. I only ask—"
"Just please don't let me go."
Huaijun looked straight at her, his light blue eyes were wet, and his tone was sincere and earnest.
He still followed his heart and said that name.
"My wife... I have nowhere else to go."
