Chapter 34 Discovering Her Secret
Qiao Suluo thought to herself that a beautiful female beast might appear as beautiful as jade under the lamplight, but she wasn't.

Is it because she's so ugly that she looks even scarier under the light?

Or is there something sticky on your face?
Qiao Suluo reached out and touched her face, unaware that she hadn't noticed that because she had lost 22 pounds in one day, her fingers looked thinner than before.

Que Hongjin's beautiful eyebrows twitched, and she picked up a clean towel to wipe the water off her hair and face.

"It's nothing, my face is just wet, this makes me feel better."

When Que Hongjin wiped her, her movements were very light and gentle.

Qiao Suluo had never been taken care of like this before, especially by such a beautiful beast husband as Que Hongjin, who was as picturesque and exquisite as a poem.

It's a pleasure to look at.

Not to mention how well he took care of her.

After wiping the rainwater off her, Que Hongjin squatted down and took off her right shoe.

Que Hongjin could see that she had applied medicine to her ankle, which had a faint medicinal fragrance.

This reminded him of that day when she woke up and brought him medicine to clean his wounds.

She changed then, she was different, but he didn't believe it at the time.

The current wife has many secrets that are unknown to others.

He could see that the skin on her feet was very white, completely different from the skin on her face.

Que Hongjin examined her and said softly, "It might hurt a bit later, so please bear with it."

A hint of vulnerability flashed in Qiao Suluo's eyes, but she quickly regained her resolve. "It's okay, I'm not afraid of pain. Just set my bones."

Although she didn't know why Que Hongjin knew how to set bones, she trusted him.

As Qiao Suluo spoke, she stopped looking at her feet and turned her head to the side.

Seeing her like this, Que Hongjin's expression softened. How could she possibly be unafraid of pain?

It's just a tough talk.

Que Hongjin sighed inwardly and asked, "What would you like to eat tonight, my lady?"

When food was mentioned, Qiao Suluo's attention was immediately diverted, and she started thinking about what she wanted to eat and what food she wanted to make for dinner.

In the instant she was distracted, Que Hongjin moved her finger, and a "click" was heard.

Her twisted ankle was immediately straightened.

When Qiao Suluo came to her senses, her foot no longer hurt; it had only hurt for a moment.

"Try it, does it still hurt?"

Qiao Sulu twisted her foot, her eyes lit up, and she said, "It doesn't hurt anymore."

"so amazing."

At this moment, when Qiao Suluo looked at Que Hongjin, her eyebrows curved up, her eyes sparkling and captivating.

Seeing the smile on her face, Que Hongjin's expression softened as well. "It's good that it doesn't hurt anymore."

"Bai Qianlu should have boiled the water by now. You should wash up and change into some clean clothes first. I'll go make dinner."

Qiao Suluo looked at Que Hongjin and said, "I'll make dinner. I want to make noodles for dinner."

She had never cooked noodles for them before.

Noodle?

Since leaving the capital, they have indeed never eaten noodles again.

This is a southern region where people are used to eating rice, but they are actually used to eating noodles.

"I'll do it."

Qiao Suluo said, "Your noodles taste different. Let me make some for you so you can try them."

She simply wanted to express her gratitude to them, and her usual way of showing appreciation was to cook delicious food to reward everyone.

Seeing that Qiao Suluo insisted, Que Hongjin said nothing more.

Soon, Bai Qianluo boiled the water and poured it into Qiao Suluo's bathtub, adjusting the water temperature accordingly.

Hot water was placed nearby, and then Que Hongjin and Bai Qianluo went out. Qiao Suluo began to take a bath.

Although she was obese, she was very clean and took a bath every day.

At this moment, the system spoke up: "Host, you can take the detoxification pill. The detoxification pill will expel the toxins from your body, which is perfect timing since you need to wash up."

Qiao Suluo was about to agree, but then seemed to think of something and said, "Wouldn't it be too obvious?"

"The host should say that you ate a strange wild fruit in the mountains and forests, which may have a detoxifying effect, which is why you experienced the changes."

"However, I don't think Que Hongjin or Bai Qianlu will ask."

"That's just their personality; they won't question the host."

"Besides, it's dark tonight with thunder and lightning, so it's not easy to see any changes."

Qiao Suluo thought about it and it made sense, so she ate the antidote pill that the system had rewarded her with.

Soon, a layer of black impurities appeared on her body.

Qiao Suluo washed it off, and then changed the water several times to clean it thoroughly.

Qiao Suluo looked at her arm and said, "It's so obvious, my skin has even become a bit whiter."

It's finally not as dark and murky as before; that was just too ugly.

It must be tough for Que Hongjin and Bai Qianluo to see her face every day.

As she spoke, she touched her face again.

The system said, "This is nothing. You've only taken one-third of the detoxification pill. Once the toxins in your body are completely eliminated, you'll have skin as white as snow."

"I told you, host, that this body has an excellent foundation, but you didn't believe me. You'll see when your appearance is fully restored."

Qiao Suluo also loves beauty, and she was very happy to hear these words.

After washing up, Qiao Suluo changed into clean clothes and went to the kitchen to make noodles.

Que Hongjin and Bai Qianluo are both here; they have prepared the konjac dessert for tomorrow.

When Que Hongjin saw Qiao Suluo enter the kitchen, she saw her face clearly. Her beautiful eyebrows and eyes twitched slightly, as if a shimmering luster was gently swaying.

It was as if a bird had lightly skimmed across the calm lake surface, stirring up a ripple, but it quickly subsided.

Bai Qianluo has an eye ailment, but even with a blur, one can still vaguely see the changes in her. Her crystal-clear eyes gleam with a light blue luster, and the cinnabar mole at the corner of her eye moves slightly, making her appear both aloof and stunningly beautiful.

Because it was nighttime, Qiao Suluo did not notice their subtle changes.

Qiao Suluo smiled and said, "Thank you all for today. It's been hard on you. I'll make noodles for you later."

At that moment, as Qiao Suluo looked at them, she didn't even realize that her eyes held a newfound warmth.

She used to appear calm, but her eyes always carried a sense of detachment.

She remained clear-headed and rational at all times, reminding herself that they disliked her, and preventing herself from succumbing to appearances.

But after what just happened today, she felt trust in them.

"Okay, I'll assist my wife."

Qiao Suluo nodded, and she began kneading the dough and cutting the noodles.

Although Que Hongjin said she would help her, she really couldn't be of much help at this moment.

He simply watched quietly, observing her masterful knife skills.

It was very fast, and every noodle was the same thickness.

Such knife skills cannot be mastered in just a few years.

According to his understanding, she had never been to the kitchen, let alone learned to cook, and couldn't even distinguish between different dishes.

"Did the wife cook often before?"

Qiao Suluo focused intently on cutting the noodles, her attention completely absorbed in the noodles, and she didn't think carefully about Que Hongjin's question at all.

He suddenly spoke, and her mind went blank without her noticing. She simply nodded instinctively and said, "Mm."

When she realized what she had answered, her heart skipped a beat. She looked up instantly and met his eyes. His gaze was clear and bright, yet it carried a captivating and alluring quality, as if he had discovered her secret.
