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

Chapter 120, First Breakthrough Percentage

Fei Yan led Su Mo straight to her parents' house in town, but when they arrived, the gate was locked.

Su Mo peeked through the crack in the door. The room was overgrown with weeds and looked like no one had ever lived there.

But she had asked around and found out that this was where the original owner's parents lived in town.

According to the clan chief, after she came of age, several fiancés were arranged for her, and then they moved in.

Fei Yan took her to ask the neighbors, and they all said they had never seen this family return.

Su Mo frowned, her mind filled with doubts.

[The original owner's parents were really strange; they disappeared without a trace, as if they'd run away from a plague.]

Is it just that Chun Chun is incredibly carefree, or... is the original owner not their biological child at all? After all, who would abandon a child poisoned to death?!

[But this storyline isn't in the original novel at all, or did I just miss it while reading?]

Fei Yan frowned and said, "How about we ask somewhere else?"

Su Mo shook her head and said, "Forget it, let's not look anymore. We'll have to trouble the clan leader and his wife then."

She was now certain that the original owner's parents were deliberately avoiding her.

As a time traveler, Su Mo had very little affection for them, so there was no need to force it.

Fei Yan frowned but didn't say anything, her mind still on Su Mo's thoughts from earlier.

Is the wife not the mayor and his wife's biological daughter?
On closer reflection, it's not impossible.

Before the engagement, they didn't pay much attention to the wife and the mayor and his wife, but after the engagement, the wife was forced to support herself.

After that, they seemed to never see her interact with the mayor and his wife again.

While it's true that beastmen tend to have less emotional connection with their family members after reaching adulthood, cases like the wife's are relatively rare.

After searching for so long, Su Mo was actually quite tired.

It was almost lunchtime, so we found a restaurant and sat down.

Fei Yan ordered a few dishes and asked the owner for a pot of tea.

Su Mo looked up at the Hundred Flowers Pavilion across the street, frowned and asked, "Has Yueying really taken over this place?"

Fei Yan nodded: "That's right."

Su Mo frowned. [The plot is getting more and more absurd~ The female lead's intelligence station has now become the domain of several villains?]

However, this is for the best. Having a place like this means we won't be too passive in the future.

After lunch, Su Mo took Fei Yan for a stroll.

She asked around at several shops in the market that were for sale, and then immediately decided on one.

Su Mo has been exchanging coins in the system every day recently, and the coins she obtains are stored in the system's shop.

After signing the contract and paying the money, the shop belonged to her.

After receiving the key, Su Mo took another look at the shop.

Fei Yan asked in confusion, "What does my wife intend to do with this shop?"

"Sell things that females like."

She has already researched it; the system laboratory can break down the components of the shower gel and can also mass-produce it.

She can make some minor improvements then, and of course, besides these things, she can also sell some other things.

Xiao Jiu said that as long as sales are good, the system laboratory can also be upgraded more quickly.

The plot is now going further and further off course, and even Su Mo has a hard time predicting what will happen next, so strengthening herself has become extremely important.

It's foolish not to take the shortcut when there is one.

Su Mo didn't rush back; she and Fei Yan cleaned up the shop.

Then I drew some more diagrams, mainly some product display shelves.

After locking the door, she asked Fei Yan to take her to find someone to make it.

By the time we finished dealing with this matter, it was already evening.

Feiyan suggested that they have dinner before leaving.

Su Mo agreed, after all, she had been busy all afternoon and was indeed a little hungry.

We found a small, popular tavern and ordered a few dishes.

The owner brought over a plate of peanuts and said warmly, "Would you two like some drinks?"

Su Mo glanced at the liquor cabinet and said, "Osmanthus flavor, two ounces, please."

Fei Yan frowned: "My lady, you can't hold your liquor, so you shouldn't drink anymore."

Su Mo squinted and smiled, "I'll just taste it, the rest is yours."

Fei Yan sighed helplessly; she was a typical case of someone who was both bad at cooking and loved to drink.

Soon the wine and dishes were served. Su Mo really didn't intend to drink much; she only poured herself half a bowl, and she didn't plan to finish it all.

The strong fragrance of osmanthus blossoms filled Su Mo's nostrils, making her feel slightly intoxicated.

She took a small sip, thinking that when the osmanthus flowers bloom, she might pick some and put them in the lab to research new products.

Their spot was perfect; the sunset streamed in through the window, gently bathing her in its glow. Her slender, graceful figure seemed to be immersed in a soft halo of light, so beautiful that it was impossible to look away.

So when she picked up the bowl again, Fei Yan didn't notice at all.

He wished that these moments, which belonged only to him and her, could last longer, much longer...

Because of his momentary greed, Su Mo was drunk when she left the tavern.

When Fei Yan carried her out, it was already completely dark outside.

Someone came over and said, "Young master, would you like to stay somewhere? It's very cheap."

Fei Yan glanced down at the drunken person in her arms and said to him, "Lead the way."

As he started moving, he glanced at the figure in the corner out of the corner of his eye.

However, there was no hesitation whatsoever.

Fei Yan carried Su Mo to the hotel and brought hot water to help her wash up.

As he wiped her face, she groggily opened her eyes and glanced at him.

Then she reached out and hooked her arm around his neck, smiling gently: "Crimson Flame~"

In an instant, the fortress he had erected in his heart collapsed.

He reached out and touched her flushed cheeks, asking softly, "Does my wife like Fei Yan?"

Su Mo, her eyes hazy with intoxication, gazed at him and slowly nodded: "I like it..."

Fei Yan's eyes suddenly darkened, and a surge of evil fire rose in her heart.

He leaned closer to her, his voice incredibly seductive: "How much do you like it? Momo, prove it to me... okay?"

Su Mo smiled, hugged his neck, and tilted her head slightly to kiss his lips.

Just as she was about to lie back down, he suddenly grabbed her and pulled her into a tight embrace.

His kisses were more savage than ever before, and every time she tried to dodge, it only drove him wilder.

It meanders down from the corner of the lips.

He desperately wanted to leave his mark on her body.

Every whimper she uttered was like a catalyst that destroyed his reason.

A thought was clamoring in my heart: if I can't be her legal husband, being her first beastly husband is fine too!

He wanted to be her first beastly husband!
He wanted to be her first...

He wanted her so desperately.

but.

His remaining rationality pulled him back from the brink of losing control.

Can't…

She has already decided on her official wife, and doing this will only put her in a difficult position.

He didn't want to put her in a difficult position.

His love should not be a burden to her.

If she is the wind, then he can be the leaf that the wind blows by. If she is lucky enough to brush past his branch, then that is already a gift from fate.

He was too greedy...

He shouldn't have been so greedy.

Fei Yan closed her eyes slightly, clenched her fists tightly, and suppressed the delusions in her heart inch by inch into the darkest depths of her soul. It didn't matter if she wasn't the rightful husband or the first one; as long as she could stay by her side, that would be the best ending.

He should be content...

Su Mo quickly fell into a deep sleep. Before her remaining consciousness completely dissipated, she seemed to feel some warm liquid sliding down her neck.

Xiao Jiu rushed out, screaming, "Host, the first male lead to break the 100% mark has appeared! Fei Yan's favorability has surpassed 100~ Our experiment has been upgraded!!!"

His response was Su Mo's even breathing...

Xiao Jiu sighed helplessly: "How much did you drink to get this drunk?"

After calming down, Fei Yan helped Su Mo tidy her clothes and then got up to open the window.

They gazed at each other from afar, their eyes filled with a serene calm.

He knew that Mo Xiao had arrived long ago, and he had personally witnessed him carrying his wife upstairs.
