The seemingly lazy wife is a master of metaphysics, specializing in dealing with those who dare to d

Junyao's mind seemed to be cleared by a magical force, and her thoughts became increasingly clear.

She stared at Xiaobing in shock and asked, "What about the other people in this house? Do they also smell like ferocious beasts?"

Just as she had guessed, Xiaobing shook her head decisively.

"They're just ordinary people, how could they possibly have been touched by the aura of ferocious beasts? If they had, they would have gotten sick and died long ago!"

Junyao took a deep breath.

Seeing her trying to calm herself down, Xiaobing said what she hadn't said aloud.

"You don't just realize now that all that malevolent energy you received came from ferocious beasts, do you?"

"You fought alongside me for so long, and you can't even distinguish the scent of a ferocious beast?"

"You've wasted all those years as a ghost messenger... It's a disgrace to the underworld!"

Jun Yao's fist involuntarily rose slowly again.

"Speak properly to me. Although I just promised you I wouldn't hit you, I can't go back on my word..."

Xiaobing then feigned innocence, softening her tone, and continued, "From what we know so far, this ferocious beast doesn't seem to have any ill intentions towards you. However, after meeting you, I did hear some strange noises..."

"There seemed to be a hint of disappointment and resentment in that voice."

"It seems they already knew you had redeemed a Wish Crystal and had tried to shake your resolve."

"But in the end, didn't you still choose to resurrect me? So that beast harbors resentment towards you!"

Junyao blinked several times in surprise, "Xiaobing, you're talking about them..."

"It must be my nominal father talking to that ferocious beast," Xiaobing said bluntly.

Its true form is actually a Hou.

It belongs to the mammal category.

Naturally straightforward.

They don't understand the complicated thoughts and schemes of the world.

She was completely unaware of Junyao and Zhou Yichuan's marital relationship and their sweet daily interactions, which had once given her the illusion that "Zhou Yichuan had fallen in love with her."

It simply stated the truth as it knew it.

Unexpectedly, Jun Yao's face suddenly darkened.

Xiaobing scratched her head. "Ayao, what's wrong? Why are you unhappy? Did I say something wrong?"

Jun Yao shook her head. "It's not your fault, it's my fault."

She shouldn't have mistaken Zhou Yichuan's kindness for love!

Since Zhou Yichuan was able to show no interest in the original owner during the past few years of marriage, it's understandable.

Why is it that after she was replaced in this body, he was able to change so much?

In the end, it was all just an act!

Play a devoted husband.

He played a prodigal son who turned back to the right path.

But the ultimate goal is simply because of the value that Junyao can bring!

Because she can restore his senses.

She takes away his anger, which allows him to break free from the shackles of sleepiness for a certain period of time.

In exchange for a fleeting freedom that cannot be measured in value...

Since he was able to communicate with that ferocious beast, he must have already known that she was exceptionally capable.

But he never asked, never spoke, never inquired, which can only reflect one thing indirectly:

He was never afraid that things would get out of his control.

This is an arrogant attitude that only those in positions of power possess.

It is the extreme narcissism of those in power.

It's the absolute advantage of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind...

She was merely someone who appeared to have some ability on the surface, but in reality, she had been used as a flexible pawn and manipulated in the palm of someone's hand for a long time.

Jun Yao looked at Zhou Yichuan's room from behind the wall with a deep gaze.

It turned out that he had forced himself to come, saying he wanted to explain and clarify to her that he and Old Madam Zhou did not share the same attitude...

But in reality, it was just a big show!

He attempted to use love, the cheapest emotional value, to trick her out of her hard-won wish crystal!

Fortunately, she didn't fall for it!

But she almost fell for it too!

An uncontrollable rage suddenly rose from Jun Yao's heart and savagely pounded into her chest, making her see stars.

She was angry because she almost believed in so-called love.

The reason she was so eager to revive Xiaobing was because she lacked confidence in herself and was afraid that she might waver at any moment and use the Wish Crystal to extend Zhou Yichuan's life!

If that's the case, what kind of fate awaits her now?

Will Zhou Yichuan continue to treat him as a "cleaner" to sweep away the hostility?

Or will it be treated as a worthless piece that has been squeezed dry and discarded at will?

Jun Yao walked out of the room with a sullen face.

There were some things she wanted to ask Zhou Yichuan in person.

She wanted to see if his expression would falter for even a moment when the true purpose hidden beneath the love was exposed.

He had never actually entered the entertainment industry, yet he delivered an astonishing performance in front of her, who almost won the Best Actress award!

He can be considered a respectable opponent!

The room was filled with a subtle woody citrus scent.

The delicate flavor seemed to mask some of the sickly aura emanating from Zhou Yichuan.

However, it cannot completely cover it up.

Only at this moment did Jun Yao truly realize the inevitable process that human life must go through before it disappears.

The human body is no different from the flowers, birds, insects, and fish in nature.

Before leaving this world, everything goes through a process of decay and decay.

Junyao pulled up a chair and sat down on the edge of the bed.

As if sensing her presence, Zhou Yichuan laboriously lifted his heavy eyelids.

"That child..."

He wasn't hesitant to speak; rather, he simply ran out of energy to utter another sound halfway through his sentence.

This chaotic feeling of being imprisoned, once again, was like a thick, layered spider web, pressing him firmly to the bottom, making him unable to move.

Zhou Yichuan wanted to smile bitterly, to sigh, and to explain that he was unaware of the child's existence.

He wanted to argue that even though he had been involved with so many female celebrities in the past, he had never had any real intimate physical contact with them.

I mean, he couldn't have just conjured up a son out of thin air and suddenly have such a big son.

Unfortunately, the mortal body is fragile.

No matter how angry he was inside, he could only remain trapped in this helpless predicament.

Jun Yao was much calmer than he had imagined.

She even leisurely poured herself a cup of hot tea.

As she picked up her teacup and sipped her tea, she said slowly, "You should be happy to find out you have a child at this crucial moment."

"Because other matters of the group can be disregarded, but the family business you have built up over the past few years of glorious struggle finally has a successor."

"I don't know how your will was made, but I imagine there wasn't a section about this child in it before."

"I don't care how much you plan to leave for me. I believe you will do your best and won't treat me unfairly."

"But you should think more about your own flesh and blood."
