Chapter 51: The Competition for Favor Begins

Que Hongjin came to her senses, grasped Qiao Suluo's hand in return, and said with gentle eyes, "My wife, I believe you."

"I can't bear to leave my wife, so I will live well."

She said she could detoxify him and cure him, and he believed her.

He believed everything she said.

The antidote prescription would automatically flash through Qiao Suluo's mind.

She sensed that the prescription required common medicinal herbs, but there were many different kinds of herbs needed, and the amount of each herb was different, so the proportions had to be precise.

Even without a prescription, if she uses the alchemy furnace to absorb enough medicinal herbs and their medicinal power, transforming it into healing abilities, she can use those abilities to detoxify him and cure the poison.

Qiao Suluo looked at him earnestly and said, "Hongjin, I will definitely not let anything happen to you."

Que Hongjin reached out and gently pulled her into a tight embrace, saying, "My wife, it's so good to have met you."

"I don't even know how to love you enough."

He truly struck gold.

“I am very grateful to those people in the capital for letting me become your beast husband.”

If those people knew how good Qiao Suluo was, they would regret it.

But those people don't know that now.

He wished he could hide her away and not let anyone see her.

But he also knew that his wife was so wonderful, and she couldn't belong to him alone.

Whether it's Bai Qianluo or Yue Hanzheng, as long as they come into contact with the wife, they will definitely discover her goodness, be moved by her, and be captivated by her. They will all be willing to become her beast husbands.

Just thinking about it made Que Hongjin feel a pang of sadness.

Qiao Suluo knew that Que Hongjin must be feeling terrible at this moment, and she wondered who was so cruel as to give him this secret drug.

Even the imperial physicians couldn't detect the pulse.

If she hadn't inherited the skills of a divine physician, she wouldn't have been able to tell the difference or diagnose the pulse.

Qiao Suluo hugged him, still a little scared, "Hongjin, please don't get hurt, I care about you a lot too."

She traveled to this strange world, and only he knew that she was not her original self. Only he understood her, which gave her a sense of belonging here.

She didn't dare to imagine how heartbroken she would be if something happened to him.

At this moment, being held by Qiao Suluo and listening to her say these words, Que Hongjin felt a surge of joy welling up in her heart, flowing through her limbs and warming her soul.

His lips couldn't help but curve upwards, revealing a smile more captivating than the peach and plum blossoms of March.

"A-Luo, how can you be so kind?"

He could feel her care, and his sorrowful mood seemed to be soothed.

"I suddenly feel that all those experiences were worth it if they led me to meet you."

Hearing his words, Qiao Suluo couldn't help but feel sorry for him. "You're great too. No matter who hurt you, I'll be there to help you get revenge."

She knew he must harbor his own hatred deep down.

These five beastmen all had enemies, more or less. If they hadn't been persecuted, they wouldn't have ended up in their current predicament.

Hearing these words, Que Hongjin felt her heart flutter.

He felt that words were too inadequate, so he could only lower his head and kiss her lips, forcefully conveying his love.

Jossola also tried her best to respond to him.

After a long time, when Qiao Suluo was struggling to breathe, Que Hongjin released her.

He smiled gently, "My wife, I'm so happy. With you, I feel this world is a wonderful place."

Before, he only felt hatred in his heart, and that feeling was uncomfortable, but at this moment he was happy.

After calming her breathing, Qiao Suluo sensed that Que Hongjin's mood had improved, and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "I'll go eat first, and after I eat, I'll go to the mountains to look for medicinal herbs."

No matter what kind of medicinal material it is, once its medicinal power is absorbed by the alchemy furnace in her hand, her healing abilities will be enhanced.

"it is good."

……

When Qiao Suluo got up and came to the kitchen, she found Bai Qianluo adding more firewood to the stove to heat up the food.

Hearing the sound, he seemed to sense something and whispered, "My wife is awake."

"Hmm." After a pause, Qiao Suluo looked at Bai Qianluo and noticed that he didn't look well. His voice was also a little hoarse, as if he hadn't rested well.

Qiao Suluo asked, "Bai Qianluo, did you not sleep well last night?"

His figure seemed increasingly desolate; already weak, he appeared as if a gust of wind could blow him away.

Bai Qianlu felt a sense of suffocation.

He knew they had made a pact last night.

He said in a low, dejected voice, "Does my wife care about me?"

"I was just being delusional. Even if I have insomnia, nobody cares."

When Bai Qianluo said these words, her tone was so sad and desolate, and there was even a hint of self-loathing.

But after he said those words, he began to feel remorseful.

How could he say such things, like a resentful old man?

But he couldn't control himself.

He then realized that he had developed feelings for her without even realizing it.

He would care about her and Que Hongjin's sworn brotherhood and would have trouble sleeping.

Qiao Suluo didn't quite understand why Bai Qianluo said that.

She felt that if a person didn't get enough rest, especially if they had insomnia, they would definitely feel unwell and their mood would certainly be bad.

She then comforted him, saying, "Of course I care about you. If you don't get enough rest, I'll care too."

Are you feeling unwell?

"How about I take your pulse first?"

"Or perhaps I could use my mental powers to soothe you?"

When she formed a pact with Que Hongjin last night, the soothing effect of her spiritual power on Que Hongjin was the best.

However, even without forming a bond, touching can still provide emotional comfort.

Bai Qianlu thought about the effect of her mental power in comforting her, and he was afraid that he would not be able to resist doing something to her, and that he would become unlike himself.

The chaotic emotions in my heart say it all.

He then realized that he cared about her more than he had imagined.

His wife was so kind, like a little sun soothing his restless emotions.

“My wife must be hungry after just waking up. It’s important for her to eat.”

He couldn't bear to see her tired or hungry.

The fact that she only got up now means that Que Hongjin must have exhausted her last night.

He couldn't help but wonder if she begged for mercy in Que Hongjin's arms when she was tired.

The way Que Hongjin spoke this morning was enough to show that he was satisfied both physically and mentally.

Before they get married, they are taught some unique knowledge by their families, namely, knowledge about the bond of marriage, so that they can serve their wives well during the bond of marriage and avoid being reckless and hurting their wives.

At the time, he thought he wouldn't need it, but now he can't help but think about it...

Qiao Suluo asked, "By the way, have you eaten?"

Bai Qianlu shook his head and said, "No, we're waiting for my wife to come along."

Qiao Suluo said, "If I wake up late in the future, you can eat earlier."

Judging from Que Hongjin's demeanor just now, she was worried that she would have to get up later tomorrow, but she would try to get up early as she had things to do and would go to the county to see Yue Hanzheng tomorrow.

Bai Qianluo's hand trembled slightly when she heard these words.

When Que Hongjin finished making the bed and came over, he saw Bai Qianluo and Qiao Suluo already sitting at the table. He went over and sat down to eat.

Que Hongjin naturally served food to Qiao Suluo. Qiao Suluo wanted to respond to Que Hongjin, but found that Bai Qianluo didn't seem to have touched her chopsticks.

"Bai Qianluo, why aren't you eating?"

Seeing that she can't sleep well and can't eat, could there really be something wrong with her health?

Bai Qianlu coughed lightly a few times, her whole body exuding a broken and weak feeling. She said weakly, "Cough cough, my wife, my eyes may be uncomfortable and I can't see very clearly. Could you help me pick up some food?"

He was not good with words, but he feared that if he didn't fight for it, he wouldn't have a place in his wife's heart.
