Chapter 24: Cheating or having an affair?

The system defaults to this rule because it is the rule in the Beast World: once a beastman has had an intimate relationship with a female master, he cannot be exchanged for another female master in this lifetime. Only if the female master initiates a divorce can the beastman gain his freedom. Divorced beastmen cannot find a new female master.

In this beast world where females reign supreme and males are inferior, males have very few choices.

It was precisely because of this that Jin Che's five beast husbands harbored evil intentions. In order not to leave Shen Jinxi, they began to set traps for people to fall into.
-
Ever since Sang Tian's words made the five of them feel that she didn't trust them, the relationship between the six of them has plummeted to a freezing point.

As night deepened, Sang Tian's stomach growled with hunger, and she tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.

Left with no other choice, she got out of bed and opened the door. As the door opened, light spilled out of the room, casting a beam of light into the dark corridor.

She graduated from university just as the apocalypse began, and she had hardly ever cooked.

Sang Tian went to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator and storage cabinet to look for fast food.

She crouched down and opened the cabinet, finding a bag inside that looked like a ramen noodle package. The cabinet was large; even with only half the door open, she could easily squeeze inside.

Sang Tian squeezed most of her body inside, stretching her arms out as she tried her best to reach the packaging bag.

"I've never seen anything like it! Instead of sleeping, you're working as a plumber in the closet?" A male voice came from behind, sounding unusually abrupt in the quiet kitchen.

Sang Tian was startled by the sudden voice. She instinctively straightened up and looked up, only to hear a thud as her forehead hit the table.

She hissed and gasped, raising her hand to touch her forehead where she had been bumped, only to find it slippery and sticky, and the more she touched it, the more it hurt.

"Stealing in the middle of the night is one thing, but how did they end up being scammed?"

The commotion was quite loud, which startled Bi Jingyan, who turned pale and rushed forward to check on Sang Tian's condition.

Sang Tian stepped out of the cabinet and looked down at her finger that had just touched the wound. The tender pink fingertip was stained with bright red blood, which was very glaring under the light.

Bi Jingyan noticed the scratch on her forehead, with beads of blood already appearing, and looked anxious.

"Wait for me, I have medicine in the clouds."

Sang Tian sighed softly and said, "No need, I have medicine too, I can just go up and get it done."

The bleeding was a minor matter; the sudden impact had caused Sang Tian considerable pain, leaving her pale and looking quite unwell.

"What are you doing in the kitchen in the middle of the night?" Bi Jingyan stared at the injury on her forehead with concern, feeling ashamed that he was the one who caused it.

Sang Tian looked up, trying to play the victim by taking advantage of the current situation, suppressing her urge to curse, and softened her voice.

"I'm a little hungry, so I came to look for something to eat."

Bi Jingyan belatedly realized that he hadn't cooked in the afternoon and had stayed in his room until now. His room was next to the kitchen, and he came out immediately when he heard the noise. He never expected that it would directly lead to Sang Tian's injury.

"Go and take care of your wound first, I'll do it for you."

Bi Jingyan couldn't bear it and offered to cook for Sang Tian, ​​but he was still worried about her forehead. "Will your medicine work? Why don't you try mine first?"

“It will definitely work. You go ahead and do it, I’ll go upstairs and take care of it.” Sang Tian’s lips curled up, and a hint of smugness flashed in her almond-shaped eyes.

Bi Jingyan agreed and easily found the ingredients to start cooking.

Seeing this, Sang Tian didn't stop her from doing her thing and went upstairs to treat her wound.

She knew she couldn't make the late-night snack herself, and since Bi Jingyan's room was right next to the kitchen, she didn't deliberately make any effort to be quiet when turning on the lights and opening the cabinet doors.

She was betting that Bi Jingyan wouldn't be able to hold back, but she didn't expect him to be so patient, only showing up when she couldn't take it anymore and was about to give up.

It's true that they were frightened, and it's also true that they turned the tables on each other.

Sang Tian's plan succeeded, and her steps upstairs became much lighter. She wasn't in a hurry to bandage the wound with spiritual spring water; she wanted to use the wound to feign pitifulness first.

With this injury, even if you're in the wrong, you still have a 30% chance of getting away with it.

Like Shen Jinxi, Bi Jingyan was equally impatient. She took out iodine to disinfect the wound and bandaged it simply. The wound wasn't deep, just a scrape, but unfortunately, the original owner's skin was delicate, so even a small injury looked serious.

Sang Tian specially put a piece of gauze on her forehead, looked at herself in the mirror, nodded in satisfaction, and prepared to go downstairs to enjoy a late-night snack.

Worried about getting her white nightgown dirty, she chose a pink and white silk loungewear set from her wardrobe and went downstairs.

Bi Jingyan was very fast; she prepared three dishes and a soup in less than half an hour, with noodles as the staple food.

To avoid interfering with her eating, Sang Tian specially tied her hair into a bun.

"Is it ready?" she asked, tilting her head as she stood at the kitchen doorway.

Bi Jingyan was washing the pot, her movements slow and deliberate, her expression showing no sign of disgust, but rather a clear enjoyment.

"Okay, it's on the table."

Looking at the dishes, Sang Tian said politely, "You're so kind, but isn't it a bit extravagant to cook three dishes and a soup in the middle of the night?"

Bi Jingyan pulled out a piece of paper to wipe the water droplets from her hands, then casually tossed it into the trash can, her movements fluid and effortless.

"You weren't the only one who didn't eat dinner tonight."

The moment the words left her mouth, Bi Jingyan noticed the injury on her forehead, and her tone changed, becoming much gentler when she spoke again.

"I'm hungry too, we can eat together."

Sang Tian nodded, waiting for Bi Jingyan to sit down and start eating. Only after he sat down and picked up his chopsticks did she begin to eat.

"Is your injury that serious?" Bi Jingyan had no appetite and stared intently at the gauze on her forehead, which looked quite serious.

Sang Tian lowered her eyes, her gaze fixed on the vegetables. "I don't know either, I just stuck them on randomly."

Upon hearing this, Bi Jingyan put down her chopsticks without saying a word and left the kitchen. When she returned, she was carrying alcohol and bandaging tools.

"Let me re-bandage your wound, then you can eat," Bi Jingyan gestured for her to put down her chopsticks.

Sang Tian was unwilling in her heart, but on the surface she acted decisively, not daring to let the man see her true feelings.

He also planned to use this injury to ease his relationship with the other four beastmen.

Sang Tian's plan failed, and she resignedly sat in the chair, waiting for Bi Jingyan to bandage her up.

Bi Jingyan seems carefree and has a personality like a firecracker that can explode at the slightest provocation, which makes Sang Tian genuinely worried that he might take the opportunity to retaliate.

Unexpectedly, he moved with great care and concentration, as if he were repairing a fragile antique.

As the distance between them closed, Bi Jingyan's eyes were fixed on Sang Tian. He saw her with her eyes lowered, her eyelashes long and black, blinking occasionally, her movements inexplicably playful and cute. She didn't seem to mind his slowness and waited quietly.

Perhaps because it was the first time Bi Jingyan had been in such close contact with a female, he felt a little uncomfortable, especially since his heart was beating very fast.

Palpitations are a negative reaction to the innocent little bird.

"All done." He finished quickly, and the bandage barely covered the wound. "The wound isn't deep, and using gauze would be too heavy and cause problems in this hot weather."

Before Sang Tian could reply, her stomach answered Bi Jingyan for her.

Bi Jingyan chuckled to herself, but quickly suppressed the smile on her lips. "Let's eat."

"Oh, are they cheating on each other, or having an affair?" Bai Mingchen stood at the door, his eyes dark and cold as he looked at the two of them.

Roar! The night was captured, and the new beast husband is about to arrive to tear this family apart!
