Their true feelings revealed: the beastly husbands are working themselves to the bone every night.

Chapter 57 057 My Wife, I Will Never Like Anyone Else Again

Xiao Jiu's voice kept echoing in my mind.

"If the host really does engage in some back-and-forth with them, I wonder what kind of reward the System Management Bureau will issue~ Little Nine is really looking forward to it! What are we waiting for? Why not seize this opportunity and take them down in one fell swoop! That way, your laboratory might be able to upgrade again~"

Su Mo was speechless: "Looking forward to it my foot! Before you watch the show, can you at least consider whether my body can handle it?"

She now suspects that his previous hosts were all sent away in the same way...

Su Mo sighed, "But those two were too impulsive..."

Xiao Jiu: "This isn't impulsiveness; it just shows how irresistibly charming you are, host! They've already decided you're the one!"

Su Mo was speechless: "Can you be realistic? With my face? What do they like about me? They used to hate me so much, and now they suddenly like me? Nobody would believe that!"

"Of course I like you as a person~ Host is so cute, even Xiao Jiu can't resist your charm~ mua!!!"

Su Mo frowned in disgust: "Stop with the sweet talk, give me something real!"

Xiao Jiu stammered, "Um... the leaders of the Management Bureau asked me to go to a meeting, so I'll have to go now."

"..."

Su Mo cursed that shameless man fiercely in her heart once again.

Thinking about it, I should find an opportunity to test the power of the upgraded laboratory today.

Su Mo turned her gaze and saw Fei Yan sitting up.

He was about to tie the belt of his inner robe, and perhaps because he was embarrassed, he was actually a little flustered.

She glanced again at the marks on his body.

[Is it just psychological? The more I look at it, the more it looks like a kiss, a mark... Did I really bite it?]

[Heavens above, could I really be a heartless woman whose actions contradict her words...?]

Fei Yan paused again with his hand holding the ribbon. Actually, his wife hadn't done anything too outrageous to him last night... she had just touched him a little too hard.

Su Mo looked again at the knotted dark pattern on his left chest.

[He was too impulsive. People's hearts are fickle; no one will like someone forever. What if... what if he falls for another female later? This bond proves she won't want him either...]

Fei Yan paused, looked up at the person in front of her, and a trace of unspeakable sorrow filled her deep eyes.

"My lady, I will never love anyone else again."

Su Mo was taken aback. [Could it be... he also possesses mind-reading abilities?]

She frowned as she looked at the faint marks on Fei Yan's chest and said, "Actually, you don't need to repay me with your body just because I saved you. I don't want you to feel guilty about this. Saving you was just a doctor's instinct."

Su Mo couldn't think of any other reason besides this.

Most orcs are actually quite naive, so it's not surprising that they would want to repay the kindness of being rescued with their bodies.

But Su Mo didn't expect that a beastman like Fei Yan could be so naive.

Upon hearing this, a dark glint flashed in Fei Yan's eyes: "My wife saved me, truly only out of a healer's instinct, and nothing more?"

Su Mo was stunned for a while before she opened her mouth as if to say something.

Crimson Flame interrupted softly: "Regardless of what my wife thinks of me, I will only follow my own truest feelings. My wife probably doesn't understand what a beastman's contract truly means. Perhaps other beastmen would choose this person as their partner because of a life-saving grace, but Crimson Flame will not."

"I knew what kind of wife I wanted when I was young, and I vowed to love only the one I wanted to love in this life. Orcs will only choose to form a bond when they are truly in love."

"I harbored a delusion about you that even alarmed myself. I tried to control it, but to no avail. It is the best proof of that."

Fei Yan lowered her head and gently touched the bright red flower pattern on her chest.

When she looked up again, her eyes held three parts tenderness and seven parts restraint.

He said slowly, "I didn't want my wife to find out about this, for fear of burdening you. I also don't want you to be forced to keep us by your side because of this. Even if... you still want to break off the engagement in the end, I'm willing to grant your wish. With me, your happiness is greater than mine."

"I'm telling you all this just to let you know that the choice has always been in your hands. I love you, but I don't expect you to reciprocate in kind. You can always be the free-spirited wind, and I will be the silent tree, letting you pass by my branches and briefly shelter you from the rain. That will be enough."

Because of her, the person he had fantasized about since childhood came to life. From then on, every smile and frown became an indelible mark, and no one else could catch his eye. No matter how wonderful they were, there would never be another person who could move his heart so deeply.

A look of surprise and embarrassment flashed across Su Mo's face. The things that had happened recently seemed to be getting more and more unexpected than she had anticipated.

The current plot is completely different from the original book.

When exactly did this change begin?!
Before she could figure it out, a commotion arose outside. It sounded like the two little dragon cubs from Longyan had arrived, calling out anxiously as if they wanted her to go and treat someone.

Mo Xiao is communicating with someone.

Su Mo snapped out of her daze and began to straighten her clothes. Just as she was about to bend down to find her shoes, she saw Fei Yan squatting down in front of her, holding her shoes in her hand, ready to help her put them on.

Su Mo blushed and quickly put the glove on herself.

"I'll go out and take a look first..."

Then she ran out as if fleeing.

Fei Yan stood up and couldn't help but chuckle helplessly as she looked at her hair, which she hadn't had time to fix.

Then he picked up the hairpin next to him and chased after her.

Just as Su Mo was about to turn around to find the hairpin, she saw him come out with her things.

With a slightly flushed face, she reached out and quickly tied it up, then turned and walked towards the two little dragon cubs outside.

Nan Nan rushed over anxiously: "Sister Mo, could you please go and check on Lord Lan Ling's injuries?"

Su Mo was taken aback, realizing that the commander had also been injured yesterday.

"What about people?"

The little dragon said anxiously, "It's right outside."

"Let him in right away!"

Upon hearing this, Dongdong dashed out like a gust of wind.

Before long, Su Mo saw the dragon clan's men carrying Lan Ling over. He was already unconscious, and his face was ashen.

Su Mo stepped forward and felt his pulse; it was very weak.

The dragon shaman standing nearby was sweating profusely with anxiety.

The strategist and Long Yan behind him, having probably heard the news, also rushed over with worried expressions.

“Miss Su, please take a look at Lord Lanling! I gave him this prescription yesterday, and he was getting better, but he's like this this morning.”

Su Mo took the prescription and glanced at it. The medicine itself was fine, but it only treated the symptoms, not the root cause.

I never expected that the man in black yesterday would be so cunning.

He and his men used different poisons on every weapon; it was rare to see someone so cunning.

Su Mo took out a silver needle, intending to collect some blood from Lanling to study the system.

Fei Yan, Mo Xiao, Yue Ying, and Cang Lan, who were standing nearby, all exclaimed in unison, "My lady!"

Mo Xiao, who was closest to her, reached out and grabbed her wrist: "My lady, you must not hurt yourself for the sake of others!"

Su Mo blinked and said, "I just want to take some of his blood to study it..."

The fact that she's a drug addict is something that can't be known by too many people.

Last night, because Fei Yan's condition was quite serious, she was in a moment of panic and didn't pay attention to anything else.

"Oh."

Mo Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and released her hand.

After Su Mo took the blood, she retrieved an antidote pill from the system space and had the witch doctor give it to Lan Ling to calm her mind.

Then she took Blue Ridge's blood and walked into the room.

The dragon clan's witch doctor and strategist were about to follow when Mo Xiao stopped them at the door.

"I'm sorry, my wife doesn't like to be disturbed at this time."

The strategist frowned and glanced at Long Yan beside him. Seeing that the major general did not intend to speak, he retreated to his original position.

Fei Yan and the others agreed with Mo Xiao's approach, after all, the fewer people who know the wife's secret, the better.

Today is worse than yesterday...
