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

Chapter 155 Ignore him, and won't try to comfort him.
After Su Mo returned, she went to check on the quarantine area again.

The list of critically ill patients had increased, so Su Mo adjusted the prescription and then went back with Fei Yan.

Lunch was prepared by Fei Yan and Xuan Qing together, and Su Mo rested on the bed for a while.

I chatted with Xiao Jiu for a while: "How can I quickly upgrade my totem power?"

"At present, accumulating points is still a good option. This includes the favorability of passersby and beastmen. Items sold in the store also count."

Xiao Jiu paused for a moment and said, "The totem has its own power, but it will consume some of your physical strength. You must recover your health as soon as possible."

Su Mo nodded: "Okay, I understand."

"That Jiang Wu is really strange. This time, she completely skipped over the idea of ​​taking Mo Xiao and the others into her harem, and is only focused on killing them? And the beast husbands she's found now aren't the beast husband candidates assigned to her in the original book. Why do I feel like she's deliberately avoiding something?"

Xiao Jiu frowned: "Host, I've already told you... I really don't know what you mean by the plotline~ To me, this is just a parallel world."

Su Mo frowned: "I'm a little suspicious of her identity. She's the author's favorite character, and her cheat abilities and the beastly husbands she forcibly took back are the most powerful in the original work. But now she doesn't want them anymore? Don't you think there's a big problem with her character design?"

Xiao Jiu pondered for a moment and said, "I've actually been catching up on some novels lately~ From what you're saying, she's not a reincarnated person, is she?!"

Su Mo thought for a moment and shook her head, saying, "It doesn't seem like it. If the female lead is reborn, she'll definitely be invincible. What chance would I have?"

After a moment of silence, she said again, "Could it be that she only awakened her memories halfway through?"

Xiao Jiu: "It's not impossible, huh?"

Su Mo frowned: "Could she have poisoned me?"

Xiao Jiu shook her head: "I don't know~"

Su Mo sighed, "I shot and killed one of her beastmen today, so I'm now completely sworn enemies with her. I need to find a way to level up and get rid of her as soon as possible so I can live peacefully in the beast world."

Xiao Jiu said excitedly, "Host, it's great that you have such awareness! Don't worry, this system will help you! Here are a few strengthening pills for you. They'll be most effective when taken with Xuan Qing's medicine!"

Su Mo frowned: "Why must it be taken with the medicine brewed by Xuan Qing?"

Xiao Jiu changed the subject, saying, "He's an eighth-level orc with boundless magical power! Anyway, listen to me, it will definitely speed up and extend the duration of the totem's power!"

Su Mo yawned, too lazy to argue with him any longer, and turned over to sleep.

In the kitchen.

Fei Yan had already heard everything Su Mo and Xiao Jiu said. Although he didn't know exactly what Xiao Jiu said, he could still deduce something from Su Mo's words.

It seems that the Third Young Master cannot leave the North Wing anytime soon.

As for the female lead's identity, he'll check the 'divine prophecy' later.

Fei Yan glanced at Xuan Qing, who was chopping vegetables, without showing any emotion. This Third Young Master was hiding his true nature too well; he still couldn't see through him at all.

After they finished cooking, the others outside also returned.

Mo Xiao went upstairs first to wake Su Mo up.

"Master wife."

Mo Xiao squatted down beside her bed and called to her softly.

Su Mo frowned, still feeling dazed.

Her long, black hair was disheveled and hung on her face. Without even opening her eyes, she waved her hands and mumbled, "I don't want to take my medicine... Xuanqing~ let's talk this over. I don't want you to warm my bed, and you don't have to give me my medicine, okay..."

A glint of light suddenly appeared in Mo Xiao's eyes. Warming the bed? She had Xuan Qing warm her bed?!
His thin lips pursed slightly, and a spark ignited in his heart.

He frowned at the person on the bed and asked in a cold voice, "What did Mo'er just say? Say it again?"

The familiar voice rang out, and Su Mo was instantly wide awake, suddenly opening her eyes.

"Mo...Mo Xiao, you're back?"

Mo Xiao used his long, slender fingers to brush away the strands of hair from her face, then picked her up and leaned her against the headboard.

His dark eyes fixed on her, a dangerous glint in his eyes: "What did you just say, my lady? I didn't hear you clearly. Say it again?"

Su Mo's mind raced. [I just had a dream. I dreamt that Xuan Qing came to me with medicine again…it seemed like I was asking him not to give me the medicine, and I didn't want him to warm my bed…?! !!!]

Su Mo looked at the person in front of her with suspicion. [Did I blurt everything out and this stinky snake overheard me?!]

Mo Xiao stared at her with a dangerous gaze: "Speak up, why aren't you saying anything?"

Su Mo forced herself to remain calm: "I forgot. Even if I did say something... it was all in my sleep. How could I remember?!"

"Does Mo'er truly not remember, or is she afraid to tell me?" He narrowed his eyes, raised his hand to touch the corner of her lips, and slightly raised an eyebrow: "How about I help you remember?"

Su Mo gritted her teeth.

[Judging by his expression, he definitely heard it! If he heard it, why is he pretending? He's always so jealous, like a ghost… This time, I'm not going to pay him any attention or try to coax him!]

Su Mo frowned, putting on an unhappy expression: "So what if I really want him to warm my bed? He's my fiancé now, and my request isn't unreasonable. I asked you to be my legal husband so you could manage the household, not to appease you! What, do I need your permission to find someone to warm my bed? Tell me, who's the head of the household!"

[Who are you trying to scare? Do you think I'm someone you can't be easily intimidated by? I give in to him a little... and he just thinks I'm easy to bully!]

This is outrageous! I must have been too lenient with them lately, spoiling them so much that they've become so lawless!

Mo Xiao's hand on the bed clenched slightly, and his eyes darkened a little.

Xiao Jiu wailed in his mind: "Host~ Why bother arguing with a snake that's jealous~ You know how black-hearted he is, isn't this just asking for trouble?"

Su Mo retorted defiantly, "Who's afraid of him! If I back down this time, he'll think this trick works, and then he'll have to keep using it!"

Xiao Jiu: "Your only stubborn thing is your mouth... I think you've really forgotten how you begged this snake for mercy on the third night of your marriage... He really can go crazy~"

Mo Xiao's chest heaved as he stared intently at her.

Su Mo felt a little guilty under his gaze, and silently replied to Xiao Jiu in her mind: "I... I'm not available right now, he... he wouldn't dare!"

Xiao Jiu snorted, "There'll be a time when it's convenient for you~"

Su Mo: "!!!"

She lifted the blanket off her legs, making a move to get down.

But she was forcefully pulled into the arms of the person in front of her, and Su Mo subconsciously widened her eyes and covered her mouth.

Whenever the stinky snake gets angry, he likes to force a kiss on her; she's developed a conditioned reflex to it.

But this time...

His kiss did not fall.

Mo Xiao simply leaned gently against her neck and said helplessly, "I really... have no way to deal with you. You know I'm angry and jealous, but you just won't coax me. Are you trying to wear me down with your stubbornness?"

He became more and more aggrieved as he spoke: "Mo'er is the head of the family. You can choose whoever you want to warm your bed. Even if I'm jealous, I'll just put up with it. But... can't you just coax me a little? You know perfectly well that if you just coax me, even just one word, I'll convince myself to tolerate his existence."

Su Mo sighed helplessly, "That was all sleep-talking. I just used it to scare him. I don't need him to warm my bed; he's as cold as ice. My Xiaoxiao is so much better!"

She reached out and hugged his waist tightly, burying her face in his chest. "I love you the most~ Don't be angry anymore, okay~ I promise I won't have any more wild dreams or say anything out of line next time!"

Mo Xiao was amused by her words. Although he didn't know how much of her sincerity was in them, he was genuinely pleased to hear them.

Then he saw the person in his arms looking at him with smiling eyes, and leaned over to kiss him.

Mo Xiao lowered his head and pressed his forehead against hers, murmuring, "I still want to be kissed by Mo'er."

Su Mo tilted her head back, her eyes sparkling as she looked at him, and leaned closer.

The moment her lips touched his, he grabbed the back of her neck.

He kissed her until her breath was ragged, his slightly hot fingertips gently caressing her flushed cheeks, and whispered in her hoarse voice, "Don't use those kinds of words to scare people next time. The Third Young Master... isn't someone who'll be scared off by those kinds of words. But if I hear them, I'll get jealous."

"Hmm~"

Su Moshui's bright eyes met his fierce gaze, and she nodded obediently.

Mo Xiao buried his face in her neck again and made a mess of her neck. After a moment, he breathed heavily, feeling both impatient and helpless, "What should I do? Sometimes... I really want to sell off all the people in my family."
