Chapter 220 Time and Shadow's Jealousy
Jun Chenli suddenly remembered what Manzhu had said about Sang Qing only wanting a cat, and couldn't help but raise his eyes, "May I ask, why does the Colonel deserve your special treatment?"

"If I remember correctly, your engagement with Shi Ying was not what you wanted."

The extent of the scandal surrounding Sang Qing was easily found out with a little inquiry.

He didn't say anything bad about Shi Ying. Shi Ying's excellence is beyond doubt. Only those who have worked in the military know how difficult it was for Shi Ying to climb to her current position.

Although he also rose through the ranks from the bottom, the advantage brought by his prestigious status is undeniable; otherwise, even if he worked hard for another ten years, he might not have become a marshal.

I just don't understand why Sang Qing only chose one of the two options, refusing to accept him, and I haven't seen any other beast husbands.

Sang Qing was stumped by Jun Chenli's question.

She couldn't very well say that her relationship with Shi Ying was just a working relationship.

The reason why Shi Ying was treated differently at first was because there was a contractual relationship between them.

But she doesn't seem to have an obligation to answer Jun Chenli's questions.

She withdrew her hand from Jun Chenli's head, calm and composed, "This is a matter between the two of us, so it's not convenient to tell you."

Seeing that Sang Qing was unwilling to answer, Jun Chenli transformed back into human form, sat down in the chair next to Sang Qing, picked up the jade fan and gently tapped the armrest. "There are rumors online that your husband is jealous. Does Qingqing know that?"

The outermost two ribs of the jade fan are made of hard black iron and contain a mechanism for self-defense. Each inner rib is made of ice-purple jade and is carved with intricate openwork patterns, adding a touch of elegance and refinement.

This was originally intended for Sang Qing, but he knew she wouldn't accept it.

Sang Qing was taken aback upon hearing this. "Jealous?"

Is that what's being said outside?

She didn't pay much attention.

Shi Ying was indeed a bit possessive of her. He would try to coax her into liking only him, and he would rub the soft flesh on her neck as if asserting his ownership by murmuring "mine"...

Thinking of these things, Sang Qing's face couldn't help but feel a little hot.

In Jun Chenli's eyes, this looked like a young girl in the throes of spring, but unfortunately, the object of her affection was not herself.

It's not a pleasant feeling to see the person you like blushing while thinking about someone else in front of you.

He shouldn't have brought that up.

He was also curious to see how Sang Qing would react to this.

Sang Qing noticed Jun Chenli's strange gaze, and her face showed a hint of unease. She composed herself and replied casually, "Maybe."

Jun Chenli: "..."

What kind of answer is that?
He admits that Shi Ying is jealous, but he doesn't care.
Jun Chenli did not get an answer from Sang Qing.

……

In the afternoon, when Shi Ying came to pick up Sang Qing, she brushed past a ruby ​​red hovercar.

He glanced back at the entrance of the shelter, his brows furrowing slightly.

Sang Qing was scrolling through the online comments, looking down and laughing heartily.

Netizens are hilarious! They say Shi Ying arbitrarily cut off his wife's romantic entanglements and should be dragged off to learn proper male virtues—no! He should be drowned in a pig cage!
And then there's the abstract lemon pie: Can one person handle it? Let me join in!

Shi Ying turned her head and glanced at her. "What are you laughing at?"

Sang Qing dared not tell Shi Ying, otherwise she would pester her again that night to ask if he liked her.

"Nothing, just came across a funny clip," Sang Qing said naturally, her smile unwavering.

Shi Ying didn't suspect anything and continued driving.

However, Sang Qing clarified in the comments section of a popular post criticizing Shi Yingshan's jealousy that it was her intention to ask netizens not to speculate or spread rumors.

Although she hadn't specifically given any instructions, she knew that Shi Ying had helped her deal with those people.

Shi Ying knew that Xiong Dahui had reported this to her. Jealous?

Perhaps a little.

But she doesn't hate it.

After gossipy netizens discovered that it was Sang Qing's own response, they all pressed her for details about when she planned to marry a concubine and what type of beastman she liked.

Sang Qing naturally did not reply to these questions, as he was already on his way to the front lines with the Third Military Region's troops.

The front line is divided into fifteen lines of defense, and this time they went to the fifth line of defense, which was under the responsibility of the third district.

Shi Ying led her and the elite team ahead, while the main force followed behind.

Their route passed through the outer edge of the Misty Forest, where they rested for a while.

Just as I was resting, I faintly heard a sound from around me, like the groan of some animal, weak and painful.

"Did you hear anything?" Sang Qing asked.

Shi Ying blocked Sang Qing in front of her, and the other soldiers also looked alertly in one direction, obviously they had heard it too.

"Youfei, take some men and go check it out," Shi Ying instructed.

Yufei led the two carefully through the bushes toward the source of the sound.

Behind the bushes, a wolf-beastman, covered in wounds, lay curled up on the ground, barely alive, unable to even lift his eyelids to look when he sensed someone approaching.

A hoarse sound still escaped his lips, as if it were an instinctive outburst from extreme pain.

The remnants of the mental riot are still leaking out, weak yet still brutal.

"Tian Ke!"

Although the orc's body was almost entirely covered in fresh or dried blood, Feng Hao still recognized him by the broken wolf tail.

Feng Hao and You Fei rushed over, but dared not move Tian Ke, their eyes filled with anxiety.

"How could he be so badly injured? And he even had a mental breakdown."

"Why is Tian Ke here? Wasn't he taken back by his wife?"

Youfei was full of questions.

Upon hearing the voices of his former teammates, Tian Ke struggled to open his eyes, moved his lips, but could only let out a painful groan, with blood spilling from his mouth.

Hearing the exclamation, the others also gathered around. When they saw Tian Ke's appearance, they couldn't help but gasp, feeling as if their hearts had been hit hard.

"Madam, please, save him." Feng Hao knelt beside Tian Ke, turned to Sang Qing, and pleaded.

He was usually closest to Takashi, probably because they both had wives who didn't like them. However, his relationship with his wife improved slightly because of his wife, which allowed him to continue in the army.

Seeing his former friend in this state, Feng Hao couldn't bear it.

"They've all turned into beasts, why didn't they go to the containment facility?" Sang Qing frowned.

I remember the last time I saw Tian Ke in the control room, his riot value was only 83. How come he's all alone on the outskirts of the Misty Forest?
They haven't completed their mission yet; there's poisonous fog spreading here, and if they're unlucky, they might even encounter strange beasts.

Entering Tian Ke would be a death sentence.

Did his wife throw him in here? Why not send him to a shelter?

At this moment, Tian Ke was clearly breathing more out than in, and his eyes were unfocused. Sang Qing couldn't care less about that anymore.

He half-squatted in front of Tian Ke, reached out and placed his hand on his forehead to help him calm his mental outburst.

The groans quickly stopped, and Tian Ke's slightly trembling body slowly relaxed.
