Stunningly beautiful yet wicked, she begins by conquering eight beast husbands.

Chapter 161 Who is the Ninth Husband?

This time, surprisingly, no electric shock warning was triggered, and I also unexpectedly saw a pair of familiar eyes.

The room was so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, often making it difficult to tell which way was which.

The person before him had very bright eyes, so bright that it seemed as if a thousand stars had shattered into them, enough for him to see who the person was.

Mo Ting paused for a moment, "Scarlett?"

Scarlett's cheek twitched, and she forced a smile as she greeted him, "Hi."

She had become accustomed to Mo Ting's sudden attacks.

It's okay. It's okay.

The door was pushed open a crack again.

Harrison stood by the door, his gaze sweeping into the room and landing on Mo Ting's hand holding the fork. He said with a half-smile, "See? I told you he wasn't very obedient."

Scarlett chuckled twice. "It's alright, it's alright, I'm confident."

[Task 3: Please take your beast mate with you. (Completed)]
……

……

Inside the black sedan.

Scarlett sat in the passenger seat as usual.

Harrison glanced at his watch as he turned the steering wheel and reminded himself, "It's midnight."

Scarlett didn't react at first, her eyes kept glancing at Mo Ting in the back seat.

Mo Ting seemed to have gotten much darker, his hair had turned into natural curls, and there were several burn marks on his face.

His brow was furrowed tightly, and he stared coldly out the car window.

Noticing Scarlett's gaze, he turned his gaze to meet hers.

His eyes were sharp.

Scarlett didn't dare to look, quickly averted her gaze, and sat up straight in the passenger seat.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Do you need me to pull over?"

Harrison noticed Scarlett was sitting uncomfortably and assumed she was uncomfortable, so he slowed down and asked her what was wrong.

“No need,” Scarlett refused with a smile.

Harrison chuckled and added, "Scarlett, it's past midnight, and it seems you still haven't found your ninth husband."

Scarlett exclaimed "Huh?" and immediately put on a sorrowful and frustrated expression. She sighed deeply, rubbed her forehead, and pondered, "Perhaps this is my fate."

Harrison subtly raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

Scarlett said seriously, "This ninth husband is different from the others. He didn't leave any information, and I don't know where he is."

Scarlett pursed her lips and said, "Father said that my connection with him is rather shallow; he can only come to me, but I can't find him. Perhaps we've already met, but I just don't know who he is. Never mind, let's not talk about this anymore, let's drive. Eight is fine, we can still make money, it's just a little less, which is a bit of a pity."

Harrison glanced at Scarlett, a slow smile spreading across his lips, a hint of something deeper flashing in his eyes, which was quickly masked by a smile.

……

……

Francis Clinic.

After examining Mo Ting, administering the medication, and giving him a few instructions, the doctor turned and left the ward.

Scarlett wanted to leave with them, but Mo Ting stopped her, "Scarlett, aren't you going to explain your ninth husband?"

Mo Ting had burns, or more accurately, burns caused by electric shock. But miraculously, his internal organs were not damaged; only the surface of his skin was burned, and his mobility was not affected.

So he grabbed Scarlett's wrist, pinned her against the wall, and stared intently at her face, finally fixing his gaze on her panda eyes. "And how did you get those injuries on your face?"

It has to be said, Mo Ting has an amazing presence.

Even though Scarlett knew that Mo Ting was now a sickly man and that she could definitely kill him with a spiked club, she just didn't dare to do it.

She was really afraid of Mo Ting.

Seeing Scarlett lower her head and remain silent, Mo Ting used his other hand to lift her chin, forcing her to look up.

But he dared not use too much force, fearing he might hurt Scarlett. Until he looked into Scarlett's eyes.

Mo Ting felt as if he had been punched hard, a violent tremor running through his body, his blood boiling like water at 100 degrees Celsius.

His gaze softened, tracing Scarlett's slightly pale lips, and he lowered his head to kiss her.

Scarlett was startled, her eyes widened suddenly, and she reached out to push Mo Ting away.

Mo Ting held her hand down.

"Scarlett, don't reject me, I've missed you so much this past month."

Mo Ting kissed the corner of her lips, paused, and his hot breath spread to Scarlett's ear. His deep voice made Scarlett's ears heat up quickly, and a bright red color crept up her skin, burning her so much that she was at a loss.

Mo Ting's kiss this time was very gentle, like a soft spring rain, nourishing things silently, giving Scarlett time to adjust.

Scarlett's surprised gaze slowly relaxed, and the hand on Mo Ting's shoulder gradually loosened its grip.

During that long and gentle kiss, an idea suddenly popped into Scarlett's mind.

Does Mo Ting like me?
The idea was absurd, and Scarlett even felt like she was being delusional, but Mo Ting's actions made her unable to help but think in that direction.

Aside from the sudden attack on me at the lake under the ice, Mo Ting didn't seem to have done anything too outrageous to me.

Besides, he had saved his life once.

She actually had no reason to hate or fear Mo Ting.

However, the original owner's ending, those heart-wrenching wounds, lingered in her heart.

Mo Ting is sometimes dangerous, and sometimes he feels very safe.

What a contradiction.

Noticing that Scarlett was lost in thought, Mo Ting gently bit her lip. "Scarlett, focus."

Scarlett straightened her expression and looked at Mo Ting.

Eyes facing each other.

His grey-green eyes, though hazy, shone with an unparalleled brilliance. In the depths of his silent gaze, emotions welled up and slowly eroded the confusion in Scarlett's eyes.

Scarlett asked as if struck by a sudden inspiration, "Mo Ting, are you...?"

"boom!"

The ward door was pushed open.

The person pushing the door was probably too eager and used too much force, causing the door to slam against the wall with a loud bang the moment it was pushed open, interrupting Scarlett's words.

It also broke the ambiguous atmosphere in the room.

Mo Ting narrowed his eyes, suppressing the anger that was about to erupt in his heart, and turned to look at the person who had come from the other side.

Before she could even see clearly, she was shoved aside, and Scarlett's hand slipped from his grasp and was taken by someone else.

“Scarlett, it really is you! I’m so glad I’ve finally met you.”

Chi Ye hugged Scarlett tightly, buried his face in her neck, smelled her scent, and kissed her cheeks, forehead, and hair. It took him a while to recover before he went to check on Scarlett's condition.

Upon seeing it, he was startled. "Scarlett, your face!"

He gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Tell me who did it, and I'll go and take his life right now!"

After saying that, he stretched his hand behind his back, trying to stylishly swing out the two-meter-long broadsword to increase his imposing presence.

However, the tail was gone.

He didn't touch anything.

Chiye: "!!!"

This is an epic nerf!!!
No matter what, with Scarlett here, he's not afraid of being weakened!
Chi Ye hugged Scarlett again.

Completely ignoring the fact that there are other people around.

Mo Ting watched them silently, his back teeth clenched tightly.

At this moment, his desire to bite Chi Ye to death was no less than his desire to bite Zhe Ke to death.
