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

Chapter 147: Rivalry Showdown
Before going downstairs, Su Mo applied some medicine.

The traces had faded somewhat, but they were still quite noticeable upon closer inspection.

A voice suddenly sounded in my mind: "Congratulations, host, on obtaining a new bond pattern. The system is gifting you a Soul Guardian Totem, which you can view by gently touching your left wrist."

Sitting in Yueying's arms, Su Mo's eyes lit up. "A new gadget?" She raised her hand and gently stroked the faint rose pattern on her wrist. Instantly, it shimmered with light, and a dazzling golden light burst forth like the dawn, filling the entire room with a radiant golden glow.

As her fingers traced the skin, the dazzling light instantly receded like a tide, and the dark lines quietly disappeared beneath her skin, vanishing without a trace.

Su Mo asked in her mind, "What functions does it have?"

Xiao Jiu: "It's incredibly useful! Not only can it protect you to some extent, but it also has a certain degree of offensive capability. The totem's built-in illusion magic, hypnosis, and memory manipulation functions can also help you defend against enemies to some extent~"

Su Mo raised an eyebrow: "Illusion, hypnosis? Memory manipulation? Sounds pretty good."

Hearing Su Mo's thoughts, Yueying was also surprised. It seemed that her wife's weapon had been upgraded? That's great!
That Xiao Jiu is still somewhat useful.

Xiao Jiu continued, "The totem will continue to upgrade, so the host can work hard and try to start the new functions~ In my opinion, Xuan Qing is a high-potential stock, he is the highest level among your beast husbands!"

Su Mo frowned: "Can you stop playing matchmaker? Open your eyes and see, does Xuan Qing look like someone who's obsessed with love?"

The hand on Yueying's waist suddenly tightened. She had just praised Xiao Jiu once, and he started causing trouble!
That bastard! He's encouraging his wife to find his love rival again!!!

Su Mo continued her conversation with Xiao Jiu: "I'm not interested in Xuanqing's ice blocks. Why don't you get me some medicine that can strengthen my body and upgrade the ones I already have?"

"No problem, my performance has been good lately! My boss is very generous!"

Soon, a packet of pills dropped into the system space.

Xiao Jiu: "Host, the pill has been placed in your purse. Take one pill once every two weeks!"

Su Mo excitedly reached into her purse and found more than a dozen pills.

She took one out and smelled it. [They really use good stuff, very nourishing!]

Su Mo directly shoved the pill into Yueying's mouth: "Eat it."

Yueying frowned. Did he really need supplements to improve his health?
However, since his wife likes it, he'll take care of it.

He smiled, narrowing his eyes, and lowered his head to suckle her fingers along with his own.

It generated a slight electric current.

Su Mo's cheeks flushed red, and she tried to dodge away.

But in a daze, he pinned her down on the bed.

Moonlight brushed aside the strands of hair on her cheek, her smile alluring and seductive: "My wife gave me such good food, I should repay her properly, right?"

Su Mo suddenly opened her eyes wide: "You're not allowed to do anything reckless again!"

Yueying frowned and looked at her with a wronged expression: "When have I ever done anything wrong? You're framing me again, you should be punished!"

He then pressed the person down on the bed and tormented them again, but ultimately did not dare to go too far.

After all, he didn't want to be blacklisted for sleeping with someone.

When Yueying came downstairs with her arm around someone, Feiyan and Yeyuan had already finished cooking dinner.

Su Mo's gaze met Fei Yan's gentle eyes, and Fei Yan smiled: "Let's eat."

Ye Yuan walked over, took Su Mo's hand and said, "My lady, there's a dish I made today that you must try."

Su Mo smiled and said, "Okay!"

"Then you wait here, I'll go get the dishes!"

After saying that, Ye Yuan ran off like a gust of wind.

Su Mo stood there and glanced around. Cang Lan stood there, looking at her with a somewhat guilty gaze.

She started walking over: "Is your injury any better?"

Canglan stretched out his arm, revealing his furry ear tips, and said with a slightly flushed face, "I would like my wife to help me apply the medicine."

"Okay, sit down."

Su Mo took the medicine from his palm and instructed, "Take off your clothes."

Canglan quickly took off her clothes and sat down obediently.

Su Mozai carefully applied the medicine to him and then helped him put on his clothes.

Just as she was about to stop, he grabbed her wrist and said in a low, gentle voice, "It's my fault for not protecting my wife."

Su Mo chuckled and shook her head: "It's the enemy who's too cunning, how can you blame yourself? If he wanted to capture me, he would have found an opportunity, it has nothing to do with who's with me." "However..." Su Mo's tone suddenly turned serious: "Next time there's a situation like this, you must remember that in a crisis, your first protector should be yourself. I can never become a shackle that binds anyone's will to survive."

Canglan frowned, staring intently at him, her thoughts churning beneath the surface.

He would listen to her about anything, except this one thing.

Su Mo gave Canglan another pill, instructing him to take it after his injuries healed to increase his level.

Looking up, I saw Xuanqing leaning against a tree not far away.

The man was still dressed in plain clothes, and his gaze toward her was calm as water, seemingly clear and transparent, but in reality unfathomable.

There seemed to be some faint scars on her bare wrists.

Su Mo started walking over and said politely, "Third Young Master, I haven't thanked you for what happened yesterday."

After saying that, she casually tossed a medicine bottle to the ground: "This is medicine for injuries."

Xuanqing reached out and caught the porcelain bottle.

His clear, deep gaze locked onto her, and he asked in a tone that betrayed a hint of emotion, "Miss Su, do you always like to treat people differently?"

Su Mo was stunned.

"Do you thank everyone in this way?"

"Or should I ask what my current status is in this family, and what... what is my relationship with the girl?"

"..."

What does he mean? Doesn't he know his own identity?!

Oh right, I should give him another pill. After all, he's practically my fiancé now, I can't treat him differently!

Thinking this, Su Mo tossed him another pill.

He then squinted and said, "The Third Young Master also has a share."

Xuan Qing reached out and took it, frowning as he said, "That's not what I meant."

Su Mo: "..."

[Not this one, not that one? Then which one is it?! He doesn't want me to apply the medicine, does he?]

[...Was this a deliberate attempt to disgust me? That must be it!]

[If that's the case, then I'll disgust him too!]

Su Mo had a sudden inspiration, and a sly glint flashed in her eyes.

She took a step forward, her face calm: "The Third Young Master is my fiancé. It's not like I can't help you apply the medicine. Take it off, I'll apply it for you!"

[He's too green to mess with me, that stinky scholar! Anyway, I'm not losing anything! Who's afraid of who! If I can't scare him away, it's on me!]

Xuanqing stood still.

Su Mo blinked: "Too shy to take it off? Then I'll help you?"

As she spoke, she squinted her eyes and said, "I'm the kind of person who loves helping others the most!"

As Su Mo spoke, she was about to help him undress, but Xuan Qing did not move an inch from beginning to end, standing there like a pine tree standing in the snow.

Su Mo suddenly became a little nervous.

[Holy crap, why isn't he dodging! Does he think I'm too scared? Well, I'll show him! He forced me to do this! It wasn't my own choice...]

Just as Su Mo's hand was about to touch the belt of his robe, she suddenly felt a chill at her waist.

Before she could react, she fell into a familiar embrace that exuded a chilling aura.

Turning her head, she met Mo Xiao's deep eyes.

Mo Xiao held the person tightly in his arms, a flash of jealousy crossing his eyes.

Su Mo felt that the stinky snake's aura was a bit low, which was a little scary...

She nestled in his arms like a child who had done something wrong, too afraid to move.

Mo Xiao's calm gaze collided with Xuan Qing's across the distance, and for a moment it seemed as if a cold glint flashed, and even the surrounding wind seemed to stop for a moment.
