A weak and evil woman was exiled? The beastly husbands risked their lives to protect her

Chapter 583 Yunbo, you're finally awake! (4)
Xue Qianxun's bright and affectionate eyes suddenly darkened.

He stared at her in surprise, "Xinli baby?"

This was the first time Jiang Xinli had avoided his kiss since they became a couple.

So soon, he's going to be hated and abandoned?
He knew she was in a bad mood, and if he pressed her for details, it would seem like he was being dramatic.

But my heart still aches terribly.

Jiang Xinli snapped out of her daze and saw him staring at her blankly with disappointment in his eyes. Only then did she realize that she had been too cold to him.

Xue Qianxun was doing it for her own good, to comfort her.

"Sorry, little fox."

Xue Qianxun couldn't help but ask her, sounding aggrieved like a wronged husband:
"My little pear, you still love me, don't you?"

"Yes, of course." Jiang Xinli raised her hand to cup the young man's noble and handsome face, and kissed his lips.

"Little fox, don't overthink it."

She pressed her forehead against his and said softly, "I just want to be alone, it's not that I don't love you anymore."

"I understand, baby." The young man's heart softened, and a wave of self-reproach washed over him.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been being unreasonable."

“It’s okay,” she kissed him again. “Go back and rest, sweetie.”

This time, the young man grabbed her neck and returned her kiss deeply.

He reluctantly released her only when she was completely suffocated and had no air left to breathe.

"Baby, get some rest. Call me anytime if you need anything."

"Ah."

The door was gently closed.

The warm and refreshing scent that once belonged to the young man disappeared, and the room fell silent.

Outside the window, amidst the patter of rain, the occasional clap of thunder could be heard.

Jiang Xinli rested her cheek on her hand, sat quietly for a while, then looked up and caught sight of the wine cabinet in the corner in front of her.

That wine cabinet and bar were specially provided for her bedroom by Sheng Tianze.

After moving to the new house, everything was put in exactly as it was.

She licked the remaining red wine from her lips, got up, and walked towards the wine cabinet.

The last time she drank was when Hua Xi proposed to her on their first night together.

Back in ancient Earth, she actually rarely drank alcohol.

Because I have a very low alcohol tolerance.

Unfortunately, in the entertainment industry where one often has no choice in what one does, some social obligations are sometimes unavoidable.

To protect herself, she abstained from alcohol.

It's only when I'm with friends that I can have a little bit of a drink in a safe environment.

I'm destined to have insomnia tonight.

However, red wine can help with sleep.

She decided to drink just a little less.

I randomly chose a bottle of red wine, took a crystal glass, and poured half a glass.

She picked it up and gently shook it.

The rich, mellow liquor, as she swayed it, resembled red waves.

The lights fell down, shimmering and sparkling.

She recalled the day Yunbo proposed to her on that secluded island.

"Miss Xinli, would you be willing to let me become your beast husband?"

The noble and handsome man had deep purple eyes that were filled with the brilliance of stars.

At that time, she was simply the happiest girl in the world.

But now——

Yunbo is gone.

Her beloved Yunbo may never come back.
Jiang Xinli felt a lump in her throat and took a big gulp of wine.

The crisp, refreshing liquor went down my throat.

Perhaps it was because I was in a bad mood, but the red wine I drank today, which hadn't even had time to breathe, tasted mellow and fragrant.

Even the unpleasant tannin-like sourness has become much richer and smoother without you even realizing it.

She took a sip, then another.

Until, by accident, he drank an entire wine glass.

When Jiang Xinli realized she was getting drunk, the aftereffects of the red wine had already kicked in.

She stood up, staggered, and then slumped back down on her bottom.

I rubbed my eyes, and a wave of weariness washed over me.

Time passed by minute by minute.

"Splash—" came the sound of water.

She turned her head and glanced unsteadily in the direction of the bathroom. "Yunbo?"

After muttering something softly, the girl, whose eyes and cheeks were red, tilted her head to the side, put her hands under her head, and fell asleep on the bar counter.

Xueyin slept for a long time in the dark, lonely, and cold world. He thought he was going to die.

Until he sensed crimson stars appearing in the dark, gloomy dome.

Then came a warm, pale yellow light.

He also felt warm lips pressing against his lips again and again.

It sounded like a girl was whispering in my ear.

But he didn't hear a word she said.

Until, the darkness before my eyes gradually dissipated.

He struggled for a moment, then slowly opened his eyes.

The first thing you see is a warm and romantic pink and blue color scheme, typical of a girl's bathroom.

The layout was exactly the same as the room in Prince Yunbo's house when he was at Miss Xinli's house.

The bathtub wasn't as big as his, but the room was more understated and luxurious.

The person who renovated the house put a lot of thought into it.

He frowned.

Is he dead, or did he appear in a dream before he died?
He got up from the bathtub.

The room was filled with a faint aroma of wine and roses.

He swayed his fishtail and left the bathroom.

In a daze, I caught a glimpse of that familiar, petite figure in the corner of the house.

Miss Kokoro!

The boy's breath hitched, his heart pounded wildly, and he almost shouted out in excitement.

He quickly scanned the room but didn't see any other men.

It was pouring rain outside.

He pinched the scales on his leg hard.

pain.

So, it's not a dream.

he lived.

And now, he is alone in her room with Miss Xinli, whom he has been longing for day and night!

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, the boy gently swam towards the girl who was lying on the bar counter.

The girl's delicate and beautiful face flushed crimson.

The tips of her ears, the tip of her nose, and the corners of her eyes were all red.

It must be that he was heartbroken and cried.

The boy looked at her quietly, his heart aching terribly.

Although he didn't know whether she was heartbroken for Prince Yunbo or for him.

There was also half a glass of red wine next to it.

A drop of wine remained on the corner of the girl's mouth.

So, Miss Kokoro is drunk.

He took a deep breath, slowly leaned down, and kissed away the remaining red wine from the corner of her lips.

The wine, like her, was sweet, with a hint of rich floral and fruity aroma.

"Miss Xinli," the young man called softly, afraid that his voice would disturb her beastmen.

The girl did not respond.

He hesitated for a moment, then reached out and pulled her into his arms.

He never imagined that he would see her again.

The girl opened her eyes briefly, her gaze unfocused, then closed them again.

In her dazed state, Jiang Xinli smelled a familiar woody scent.

That is unique to the mermaid royal family.

Then, in a daze, she saw an incomparably handsome face.

A pale, white abdominal muscle, and a magnificent, large fish tail.

Her long, pale purple hair cascaded down like seaweed.

Although it was backlit, it wasn't very clear.

But she still noticed the small, alluring brown mole on the tip of his nose.

And you can feel the tenderness in the other person's eyes as they look at you, a smile tinged with heartache.

My eyelids feel very heavy.

She gritted her teeth and tried to open her eyes. Her hazy, reddish doe eyes gradually became clear and bright.

But what followed was a torrent of tears.

"Yunbo?!"

Her voice was very soft, and it sounded like she was crying.

The boy didn't hear clearly.
