Their true feelings revealed: the beastly husbands are working themselves to the bone every night.

Chapter 111 111 I can't win, I really can't win.

The faint scent of bamboo near her nose made Su Mo frown involuntarily.

She stepped back slightly, looked up, and saw the person in front of her turn around and look at her.

Is it this third young master again?
What a small world!
Su Mo frowned and said awkwardly, "I'm sorry."

Xuan Qing still looked at her with that aloof and cold expression, and his voice was also icy and devoid of any warmth.

"Miss Su, you should read fewer disorganized storybooks. It's one thing for you to read them yourself, but to mislead others is truly inappropriate."

"!!!"

[You waited here specifically just to lecture me, didn't you?]

Su Mo raised an eyebrow: "Since you say I misled others, why don't you tell me, which of my words misled Xiu'er? How did I cause him to mislead you?"

Xuan Qing frowned slightly. "Men and women should not touch each other. You are leading people astray, and you still want to argue?"

Su Mo was amused by his antics; he really was a boring idiot who stuck to dogma!
She raised her eyebrows and said, "Third Young Master, don't try to pin this on me. I neither taught her to force a kiss on you, nor did I teach her any of those secret rendezvous in the West Chamber. She didn't even touch your hand."

Ignoring the dark glint in the man's eyes, Su Mo took a step closer and breathed softly, "Young master, you seem so nervous. Are you perhaps saying the opposite of what you mean, and secretly hoping for her to come closer?"

Xuan Qing blushed slightly with anger: "You! You're simply unreasonable!"

Su Mo smiled.

Why is he the only one allowed to annoy me? What's wrong with me getting angry back at him? It's so satisfying to see his icy face get so worked up!

She turned to leave.

To her surprise, the man stepped forward and blocked her path.

Xuan Qing looked at her coldly and said, "I haven't finished speaking yet."

Su Mo smiled indifferently: "Go ahead."

Xuan Qing pursed her lips: "I'm single because I'd rather be single than settle for less. Unlike some people, who have too many admirers and can't like them all at once."

Su Mo gritted her teeth: "..."

"Better to have nothing than something bad"? It makes it sound like everyone else is just desperate and will take anything!
Su Mo took a deep breath and chuckled, "Then I wish the Third Young Master good luck in finding that perfect match soon! However... with such high standards, the Third Young Master is likely to be lonely forever."

After saying that, she turned and left from the side.

Just then, Yueying and the others arrived: "My lady."

Su Mo walked over quickly: "Go back to the house, go back to the house."

Upon seeing Xuan Qing with his deep gaze behind her, Fei Yan and the others were taken aback.

After Su Mo and the others left, Jin Yan looked at Su Mo's back and muttered, "Although she is good at medicine and good-looking, her mouth is too sharp... I don't know how those guys can stand it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Qing glared at him.

Jin Yan immediately fell silent.

Young master is really strange. Every time he mentions that Miss Su, she glares at him. Every time he mentions her, she glares at him...

But he didn't say anything wrong, so why does he keep glaring at him? Everyone says that their young master's mind is hard to fathom, and now it seems that's indeed the case.

Xuan Qing arrived at Xuan Shuang's study, walked to the side, picked up a book at random, and started flipping through it.

Xuan Shuang had already heard about what was happening outside. Seeing his expression, she couldn't help but laugh and say, "It's rare to see someone angry on your face."

Xuan Qing frowned: "No."

Xuan Shuang chuckled lightly: "Whether it's true or not, you know it in your heart. You don't need to explain to me. You don't need to be so angry. After all, that Miss Su won't be able to stay in the Tiger Clan for much longer."

Xuanqing paused in his flipping through the book.

Xuan Shuang continued, "My elder sister said that she will be able to take the second Beauty Smile in two days. I guess she will ask to return to the Northern Wing at that time."

After saying that, Xuan Shuang turned and left the study: "I'll go ask her what she wants to eat."

As soon as he came out, he bumped into Xuanwei, who was standing at the door.

Xuanwei frowned: "Do you really think he likes that Miss Su? Even if Miss Su's appearance has been restored, Third Brother has seen countless beautiful women. He is not the kind of person who would be infatuated with lust."

Xuan Shuang shook her head, and said meaningfully, "How about we make another bet?"

When the Xuan Shuang sisters went to find Su Mo, they were told by the servants that she was in the kitchen teaching their family's cook how to cook.

When the two sisters arrived in the kitchen, Su Mo had already taught someone to cook three or four dishes.

She simply couldn't stand the tiger tribe's food anymore; it tasted like nothing at all. And now, she was being supervised and forced to drink medicinal soup, which was even more bland and tasteless.

So today, I took out some kitchen seasonings from the system space and came over to personally teach the tiger-clan beastmen how to cook.

Several dishes had already been prepared, and Su Mo packed some for the two little dragon cubs, who were eating with gusto.

God knows how long they've been craving this meal.

Xuan Shuang and Xuan Wei were also taken aback when they saw the dishes on the table, which looked and smelled delicious.

Xuan Shuang picked up her chopsticks, tasted a piece of pork rib, and then nodded in delight: "It tastes really good!"

Just as he finished eating, Su Mo walked over with a smile.

Xuan Shuang wiped her mouth with a hearty laugh and said, "I was just about to ask you what you wanted to eat for lunch, but I didn't expect you to have already made such a good arrangement. We haven't taken good care of you."

Su Mo waved her hand: "No need to be polite, I was just killing time anyway. I came over to lend a hand~"

Xuan Shuang tasted another piece of fish, then her eyes widened in surprise: "You've done such a great favor! I never imagined you had such culinary skills!"

She reached out and grabbed Su Mo's wrist, her voice excited: "What other skills do you have? Why don't you show them all at once! Let me see what you've got!"

Su Mo smiled and said, "These are just trivial skills, nothing compared to the Second Miss's real abilities."

After chatting in the kitchen for a while, Xuan Shuang pulled Su Mo out.

After all, they are guests; how can we let them spend all day in the kitchen?
When the two little dragon cubs came out of the kitchen after they had eaten their fill, it was already too crowded to move around.

Those people all came looking for the scent.

During the meal, Su Mo sat to Xuan Qing's left.

She felt a little embarrassed because of what happened that morning, but Xuan Qing didn't seem to care about it at all.

He still had that same calm and collected expression.

Su Mo didn't bother to take it to heart.

During the meal, Xuan Shuang mentioned the time it would take for Su Mo to consume the next 'Beauty Smile' plant.

The dates Su Mo mentioned were roughly the same as Xuan Wei's estimate.

Xuan Shuang chuckled and said, "It seems I can't keep you here for more than a few days. But if you have nothing to do when you get back, you might as well stay a few more days."

The next second, Su Mo noticed several pairs of eyes looking at her.

She smiled and said, "I shouldn't bother you too much... I have something to do."

Tianhuan asked, puzzled, "What is it? Is there anything we can do to help?"

Upon hearing this, Yueying chuckled and said, "General Tianhuan really can't help with this matter, but he's good at drinking."

Tianhuan suddenly realized: "Ah! Miss Su is going back to get married! That's great! I definitely have to drink this wine!"

The room was filled with congratulations.

Longyan clenched his fist slightly on the table.

Although I knew this day would come eventually, I couldn't help but feel a tightness in my chest.

Su Mo glanced speechlessly at the fox opposite her.

That fox has such a loose tongue... I already said we'd discuss it later, but he insisted on saying it in public. Do you think I'd go back on my word?

Yueying smiled happily, determined to make it known to everyone and give her no chance to back out.

Fei Yan spoke up promptly, "Everything is up to my wife's arrangements. If a banquet is to be held, I will inform everyone."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Shuang chuckled. These people were really going to great lengths to gain a formal title as soon as possible, and they didn't care about formalities anymore.

I can't compete for the position of the principal husband, so be it.
