The little female is incredibly sweet and soft, healing the five evil beasts right from the start.

Chapter 142 Fighting for favor
Jiang Mian pressed her face against the window, trying to get a better look, but the hovercar was moving extremely fast and quickly disappeared from the spot.

She simply looked away, a sense of unease creeping into her mind.

"What were you looking at just now?" Lin Yu's voice came from the side.

The hovercars are extremely fast. Even if Rin Yu reacts and tries to stop, in a second, they will already be more than ten kilometers away, and they won't stop in the same place.

Therefore, Jiang Mian did not ask him to go back and continue observing.

"I just saw a lot of strange beasts," Jiang Mian said after a moment of silence. "I'm just a little uneasy."

Lin Yu paused for a moment, then slowly explained to Jiang Mian in a clear, cold voice: "There are many strange beasts and insects on the Exile Star, and humans are also a rare delicacy for them. It is not uncommon for strange beasts to besiege and attack cities."

His voice was calm: "Don't be afraid. As an old city, Baicheng still has some defenses. However, there is a possibility that strange beasts and insects may infiltrate the area, so we still need to be prepared."

"So, the city is really going to be besieged by alien beasts?" Jiang Mian paused before speaking.

"Yes." Lin Yu nodded. "It's been these past few days."

The strange beasts have begun to slowly gather around White City, clearly preparing to attack.

However, the exact number is still uncertain.

Jiang Mian recalled what the city lord had asked Zhou Bai to do that day. Could it be for this very thing?

The more she thought about it, the more she realized that it made sense. Everyone knew that the strange beasts were coming to besiege the city, so naturally they had to make some preparations.

The two returned to the small building, and it was getting dark.

As soon as Jiang Mian opened the door, she noticed that the living room was lit.

"Oh, sister, you've finally decided to come back!" Chi Lin stood up from the sofa and strode eagerly toward Jiang Mian. He had naturally noticed that Jiang Mian had returned with that snake-beastman.

His azure eyes were filled with a frenzied jealousy.

He quickly arrived in front of Jiang Mian, and when he looked down at her bright red lips, the jealousy in his eyes intensified, even flashing with sparks.

Chi Lin bent down slightly and leaned closer to her, his peach blossom eyes dark and shimmering, his voice seemingly flirtatious yet ambiguous: "Sister, why are your lips so red and swollen? Did you sneak off to eat something behind my back?"

Jiang Mian looked up and met his deep gaze. Hearing his ambiguous words, her heart skipped a beat for a moment. It felt like she had been caught cheating.

She quickly brushed away the strange feeling in her heart. What do you mean by stealing food? She was stealing food openly and honestly. No, she was eating openly and honestly.

Chi Lin's words made it sound as if Lin Yu was her little lover. What little lover? Lin Yu was her beastly husband, and he and Chi Lin were equals!
"What nonsense are you spouting?" Jiang Mian's lips twitched slightly.

She was always a little lost when this guy said something.

Chi Lin grasped her hand slightly, his eyes gleaming with a captivating light, his voice soft and slow, yet carrying a hint of unreadable emotion: "Sister, am I not able to satisfy you? Tonight I promise I'll satisfy you properly, okay?"

"I'll be warming your bed tonight," a cold, indifferent voice came from the side.

Jiang Mian thought for a moment. Today is Monday, so it seems that today is indeed the day Lin Yu will warm the bed.

Chi Lin ignored Lin Yu, his azure eyes fixed on Jiang Mian: "I miss you so much, sister, I miss you so much, I'm dying of longing for you. Don't you miss me, sister?"

Jiang Mian hadn't really thought about it, after all, she had many beast husbands, and she was accompanied by a different beast husband every day.

But now Chi Lin is her beast husband, and she likes him quite a bit. Naturally, she can't bear to see any of her beast husbands sad now, and she certainly won't say she doesn't want to anymore like before.

"I've thought about it." Jiang Mian quickly tiptoed and kissed his Adam's apple. "I'll sleep alone tonight. I've been picking medicinal plants in the White Moon Forest all day and was chased by strange beasts. I'm exhausted."

When Chi Lin saw Jiang Mian take the initiative to kiss his Adam's apple, as lightly as a dragonfly skimming the water, his resentment and jealousy dissipated without any backbone.

"Hiss, sister still remembers what I said before." Chi Linshan's blue eyes were filled with love and overflowing affection. He couldn't help but curl up his lips slightly, and his cheeks couldn't help but move closer to Jiang Mian's, his nose lightly brushing against her cheek.

Jiang Mian naturally remembered that he said he was easy to coax, and that he could be coaxed by just biting his Adam's apple.

Hmm, have you appeased them?

Jiang Mian, thinking this, naturally asked, "Hmm, did you appease her?"

"How can you make him feel better in a moment?" Chi Lin raised his eyebrows slightly, taking advantage of the situation. Just because Jiang Mian gave him a light kiss, he was overjoyed, but he still pretended that he hadn't been coaxed.

Jiang Mian was thinking of standing on tiptoe to kiss him a few more times.

Her other wrist was grabbed by Lin Yu beside her. She subconsciously turned her head to look at Lin Yu, her gaze seemingly puzzled, as if asking Lin Yu what was wrong and why he had grabbed her hand.

Lin Yu's narrow, slightly reddish eyes drooped slightly, and his long, slightly curly, jet-black hair fell beside his face. His gaze gently and quietly fell on Jiang Mian's face. His extremely red lips moved slightly, and the red mole on his lips swayed gently in front of Jiang Mian's eyes: "Tonight, you really don't want me to warm your bed?"

Jiang Mian looked into his cold eyes, which seemed to hold a hint of suppressed grievance and loneliness.

Before she could say anything, Lin Yu continued, his long, raven-feather eyelashes drooping, his voice cold and aloof: "Tonight is the first time I've warmed your bed."

Tonight is the first time he's warmed her bed; is she going to reject him?
How could she bear to refuse him?

Jiang Mian only thought the red mole under his lips was really beautiful. Now the beauty lowered his eyes, feeling lonely and alone, with no one to comfort him.

She naturally couldn't bear to see him so lonely and alone.

"I..." Jiang Mian was about to say something.

Before she could react, her chin was grabbed by another person, and her gaze was forced to shift to Chi Lin's face. Seeing the person she had just appeased, her face turned jealous again.

"Sister, you were just coaxing me, how could you be distracted?" Chi Lin said with a light laugh, but his eyes were unreadable. He put one arm around Jiang Mian's waist and gently pinched her chin with his other slender fingers. After a while, his fingertips couldn't help but gently caress her skin. He looked down at her and said in a swaying voice, "Just coax me properly. I told you I'm easy to coax."

Jiang Mian is now truly torn between two men.

She was being held by Chi Lin, and Lin Yu was holding her hand beside her.

"I cut my finger on some grass today. I bandaged it up, but it still hurts a bit," Lin Yu said calmly.

The more nonchalantly he said it, the more Jiang Mian felt sorry for him.

He mentioned his injury, but didn't directly ask Jiang Mian to care about him, subtly encouraging Jiang Mian to feel sorry for him.

He spoke casually, yet claimed his finger hurt.

Jiang Mian realized that Lin Yu seemed to be vying for favor, and her heart started to beat faster.
