Chapter 113 Fighting for favor
Wen Nanxi and the others heard the noise and looked towards the door.

When Wen Nanxi saw Su Muyao, her eyes reddened.

Wen Nanxi stood before Su Muyao like a blur.

He looked her up and down carefully to make sure she was alright.

No one knows how much he's missed her these past few days.

She had always been by his side, so he probably didn't feel much of the longing he felt.

But in the last few days, he realized how torturous it is to miss someone.

I'm even more afraid that she won't come back.

The feeling of being caught between gain and loss is too heartbreaking.

He's going crazy.

Wen Nanxi's gentle, picturesque eyes locked onto Su Muyao's features, and he said in a low, hoarse voice, "It's good that you're back!"

As long as she comes back!

No matter what he said from now on, he could never let her leave his side.

He couldn't bear not seeing her for so many days.

Wen Nanxi hugged her tightly, disregarding the presence of others, and buried his head in her neck, inhaling her fragrant scent.

It seemed that only in this way could he feel his heart come alive.

Su Muyao also missed Wen Nanxi, so she rushed back.

At this moment, smelling the faint, elegant fragrance of bamboo emanating from Wen Nanxi, she felt a sense of familiarity and peace.

She actually has a bit of a baby bird complex.

Before she knew it, she had come to regard this place, which she had just transmigrated to, as her home.

I'll miss home if I'm away from home for a long time.

Su Muyao said softly, "Yes, I'm back!"

She could feel that Wen Nanxi was holding her very tightly at that moment.

His arm was also trembling slightly.

This made Su Muyao feel a pang of guilt.

"sorry that I had you worried."

Wen Nanxi gently stroked her hair with one hand and said, "Don't say sorry."

"Whatever you do, I support you."

"As long as you're happy."

"I just remember to go home. I can't... I can't lose you!"

Wen Nanxi's voice carried a barely perceptible hint of vulnerability.

Su Muyao had never seen Wen Nanxi like this before.

Su Muyao reached out and hugged him, saying, "No, this is my home, and you are my beast husband."

This was the first time Su Muyao had said something like this, personally acknowledging that Wen Nanxi was her beastly husband.

This means that Su Muyao has accepted Wen Nanxi as her beast husband from the bottom of her heart.

This simplest sentence touched Wen Nanxi's heart and made her feel more at ease than any other words.

Wen Nanxi gently released her, his warm and beautiful eyes looking down at her with a tender and lingering expression.

His eyes were full of affection, almost overflowing with tears.

Hua Linye was rushing towards his wife, but he was a beat too late.

He felt a pang of bitterness welling up in his heart as he realized that his wife's gaze was fixed on Wen Nanxi.

He said in a low, hoarse voice, "My wife, I miss you so much!"

"I'm afraid my wife won't want me anymore."

As he spoke, Hua Linye's fox-like eyes were fixed on Su Muyao, his gaze burning with what seemed like flames.

But the words he spoke conveyed a sense of dejection.

Su Muyao quickly replied, "How could that be? I'm back now."

Xiao Jihan sighed softly, his clear voice carrying a hint of hidden emotion as he said, "It's good that my wife is alright."

“I can’t control my cold symptoms when my wife isn’t home.”

"I'm afraid that if I don't see my wife for a long time, I might even lose my life."

That's exactly right. He can't eat or rest properly, and he's even on the verge of death. Upon hearing this, Su Muyao quickly got out of Wen Nanxi's arms and took Xiao Jihan's pulse.

Hua Linye looked at Xiao Jihan in surprise.

When did the taciturn Xiao Jihan learn to compete for favor?

He's about to die, and his wife is so worried about him that she's holding his hand and taking his pulse.

Didn't he still want to leave?

Does this mean they're not leaving?

Cunning wolf!
Su Muyao took Xiao Jihan's pulse and discovered that his cold symptoms had indeed become more severe.

"Why are you so agitated? Your agitation level has increased, which is why you've developed the cold syndrome."

Su Muyao looked at Xiao Jihan's mental state with disbelief.

Normally, Xiao Jihan is the most aloof and cold-hearted, like ice and frost, and his emotions are the most stable.

Others might easily become agitated, but he doesn't.

So what happened?

Xiao Jihan's clear and cold eyes were like pearls in the dark night, radiating a luster, like plum blossoms blooming in the cold winter, mixed with a touch of gorgeousness, which was somewhat charming.

He parted his lips slightly and said, "Perhaps it's because I haven't seen my wife these past few days and miss her!"

Su Muyao's heart skipped a beat when she suddenly heard those words.

Xiao Jihan... how could he say such a thing?

Does he miss her?

Looking at her expression, Xiao Jihan realized that she didn't believe him.

He lowered his gaze, a hint of self-mockery in his eyes.

Was he too uncompetitive and unambitious in the past, so that his wife was unaware of his true feelings?
Xiao Jihan coughed lightly, "Ahem, it's my fault for making things difficult for my wife."

Seeing Xiao Jihan like this, Su Muyao couldn't bear to say anything harsh.

She reassured him, "No...no!"

"I just felt it was quite sudden and surprising."

She had always thought that Xiao Jihan disliked her.

Even if they don't dislike each other, they just maintain a peaceful and respectful relationship.

There's no such thing as missing someone.

That's why I was surprised.

Mei Qingchen was extremely annoyed at the moment. Did Su Muyao not even look at him?

He's been going crazy these past few days; her image is constantly on his mind. It's really strange.

Mei Qingchen's phoenix eyes curled into a chilling smile, "Xiao Jihan, you're a wolf, what's with the weakness?"

“My lady, look at me. I’ve been waiting at home for you to come back these past few days.”

"Judging by the time, my parents should have received the letter I wrote to them before, and they must have already wiped out the Chen family."

"Whatever my wife needs me to do, I will do it."

As Mei Qingchen spoke to Su Muyao, a captivating smile curved her phoenix eyes, shimmering and sparkling.

It seems like they are eager to show off.

Just then, Xie Guixue's clear and gentle voice softly spoke: "My mistress!"

The words "wife master" caused everyone present to turn to look at him in shock.

Each of them had a chilling, dangerous glint in their eyes.

Mei Qingchen gritted her teeth and clenched her fist, saying, "My lady, is it possible for just anyone to call you my lady now?"

Wen Nanxi's gentle eyes were filled with a dark, swirling light, as if they were about to swallow up all the stars in the sky.

In an instant, he suppressed his emotions and regained his charmingly gentle demeanor. "My lady, shouldn't you explain something to us?"

Why did he bring back someone after only a few days away, and even call her "wife"?

Su Muyao coughed a few times, not daring to look at anyone.

"Um, let me introduce you all. This is my newly acquired beast husband, Xie Guixue."

“He’s not in good health, so I brought him back to recuperate.”

A hint of pain flashed in Wen Nanxi's eyes. He suppressed the turbulent undercurrent in his heart and said in a low, hoarse voice, "Does the promise my wife made to me still stand?"
