Chapter 92 092 My face is so red, how can I sleep?
After dinner, Su Mo took the opportunity to tell the Palace Master and his wife about her plan to leave the East Sea.

The Palace Mistress wasn't too surprised.

After all, she came here to help Ye Yuan heal his injuries, and now that Ye Yuan is mostly recovered, it's perfectly normal for her to leave.

The Lady of the Palace asked with a smile, "When do you plan to set off?"

"Tomorrow morning."

A hint of disappointment appeared on Ye Yuan's face, but he was also somewhat relieved that they still had one more night to spend together.

Ye Ling, standing to the side, held Su Mo's hand and said reluctantly, "When will you come again next time, sister-in-law?"

"I don't know yet. If you miss me, you can come to the North Wing to find me anytime."

Upon hearing this, Ye Ling's eyes lit up, and she instantly felt less sad.

After the meal, the Palace Mistress chatted with Su Mo for a few minutes.

When she finished washing up and returned to her room, Ye Yuan had already taken a shower and was sitting there waiting for her.

Su Mo's dark hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and her eyes seemed to still have the dampness of a post-shower.

A light fragrance filled the air; Ye Yuan had smelled that same scent on her before, and it smelled wonderful.

The scent emanating from her body always made him gasp for breath.

Su Mo tilted her head to look at the person beside the bed, and smiled happily as she saw his flushed cheeks.

[Is she blushing again? How can this little mermaid be so cute?]

Ye Yuan was so nervous that he didn't dare to look at her at all. He was so awkward that he didn't know what to do with his hands.

Su Mo walked towards him, then lowered her head and leaned close to him.

With her eyes crinkling into a smile, she said, "How can you sleep with your face so red?"

Her aura rushed towards him, and in an instant, Ye Yuan felt as if the energy in his entire body was boiling.

He knew what that feeling was like; he felt it every time he was in heat…

Ye Yuan subconsciously clenched his robes, warning himself in his heart, "No... I can't hurt my wife."

Su Mo looked at his ears, which were so red they looked like they were about to bleed, and deliberately said, "Aren't you hot wearing so much? Take them off."

"No, it's not hot!"

"Your face is all red, and you're still being stubborn? I'll help you take it off."

As she spoke, Su Mo prepared to go and help.

The moment she placed her hand on his shoulder, Ye Yuan suddenly stood up.

He stood stiffly with his back to her, stammering, "I...I'll go out for a bit, I'll be back later!"

After saying that, he dashed away like a gust of wind.

Su Mo was speechless.

【Seriously? I hadn't even started flirting with him and he ran away?! Am I that scary?!】

"bite"--

Xiao Jiu suddenly popped up: "Do you even need to flirt? He'll surrender even if you don't... All you're good for is bullying the little prince, why don't you go bully those other kids?"

"...Of course it's because Ye Yuan is cuter!"

Xiao Jiu scoffed dismissively, "Keep that nonsense to yourself. If you flirted with those other girls like that, you wouldn't get a good night's sleep. The young prince is different; he's so innocent he doesn't even know how to retaliate... truly a naive little fish!"

Su Mo squinted her eyes: "So he's more fun~"

Xiao Jiu added insult to injury: "That's true, after all, you couldn't even beat those others. With your mediocre skills, you can only find validation here with His Highness~"

"Hey! What do you mean?! Am I really that bad?!"

Who does she think she is... This damn system is really something! All she does is make her angry all day long!

Xiao Jiu said nonchalantly, "Don't you know whether he's weak or not? Let me give you a piece of advice: even if the young prince is easy to bully, you can't keep doing it. Be careful, or he might really retaliate one day!"

Su Mo disagreed, saying that Ye Yuan was the most mild-mannered person and would not do that.

"Hey, why hasn't he come back yet? What's he been up to?"

Xiao Jiu said calmly, "Practicing shooting..."

"what?"

Su Mo didn't realize what was happening for a moment, and when she did, she couldn't help but blush.

She didn't do anything...

Outside, the three people eavesdropping exchanged a glance.

So, does the female lead like Ye Yuan, who seems easy to bully?

...How can we get the wife to flirt with them?
After a while, Su Mo remembered something and took out the book 'Beast World Strategy' that she had exchanged from her space that afternoon from under her pillow.

This book covers a wide range of topics, including governance, family management, personnel management, and strategies.

Xiao Jiu was speechless: "Seriously? Why are you bringing this piece of junk out for a romantic getaway? Are you discussing with him how to unify the beast world? Host, I never knew you were such a career-driven person!"

He finished speaking with a strange excitement in his voice, "I truly look forward to becoming the strongest system in the beast world together with you!!!"

Su Mo rolled her eyes at him: "This is for Ye Yuan. Do I look like someone who wants to unify the beast world? Thank you so much, you think too highly of me..."

After calming down for a few seconds, Xiao Jiu said with immense disappointment, "...I really shouldn't have had too high expectations of you..."

"But why are you giving him this thing?"

"The vast ocean of the East China Sea cannot tolerate a hesitant and indecisive ruler. If he can immerse himself in reading this book, he will surely grow."

Xiao Jiu: "But if you are by his side, nothing will go wrong, after all, he listens to you the most."

Su Mo shook her head: "No one will stay by anyone's side forever. I hope he grows up and becomes not a seaweed that depends on others, but a bright pearl that can illuminate the abyss on its own."

Even if...we part ways one day, I hope that when he remembers this day, he will not regret loving the wrong person. And I have never let him down.

Xiao Jiu was silent for a moment, then he understood what Su Mo meant.

She hoped that Ye Yuan could stand on his own; passion might fade, but ability wouldn't. Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.

Outside the window, Yueying tightened her grip on the fan, a faint smile appearing on her lips.

He knew his judgment wouldn't be wrong.

A hint of tenderness involuntarily flashed in the eyes of Mo Xiao and Fei Yan.

After a while, Ye Yuan's footsteps were heard outside, and the three of them quickly slipped into their room.

Ye Yuan knocked on the door and entered the room. Su Mo was leaning against the bed, flipping through a book.

Seeing him approach, she smiled at him and said, "You're here. Come and sit down."

Ye Yuan sat down beside her, his face slightly flushed.

Su Mo handed him the book 'Strategies of the Beast World': "Want to take a look together?"

Ye Yuan took the book and held it for her. At first, the faint fragrance emanating from her body made it impossible for him to concentrate.

However, Su Mo would occasionally point to a few lines on the page and read them to him, and would also discuss the viewpoints in the book with him.

Gradually, the restlessness in his heart calmed down, and he focused on watching.

I don't know how long I read it, but I vaguely heard her say, "Ye Yuan, this book is a gift for you."

When Ye Yuan finished looking at that picture, he realized that the person next to him had fallen asleep at some point.

He glanced at her sideways; Su Mo's delicate features appeared exceptionally serene in the dim candlelight.

Her features were ordinary, but every single one of them touched his heart.

Ye Yuan knew that he was a bit simple-minded, but he wasn't stupid.

He knew the purpose behind his wife giving him the book.

Although she didn't say it, he understood.

Because I understand this, I am even more grateful for how lucky I was to have met her.

He helped her to the bed and laid her down, gently covering her with an animal skin blanket, and then placed a tender and lingering kiss on her forehead.

The next morning, Su Mo was awakened by footsteps outside.

When she got up, washed up, and came out, Fei Yan and the others were already waiting outside.

After having breakfast with the Palace Master and his wife, as well as Ye Yuan and his sister, they took the gifts they had prepared and prepared to set off.

Before parting, Ye Ling watched as Su Mo cried, tears streaming down her face.

In contrast, Ye Yuan was much calmer today.

Looking into Su Mo's eyes, besides a hint of reluctance, there was even more anticipation for the future.

They will meet again.

After saying goodbye, Mo Xiao led Su Mo to the gate of the underground palace exit.

Crimson Flame and Moon Shadow followed closely behind.

Su Mo and Mo Xiao arrived home first. The house, which had been a mess when they left, had now been tidied up by Cang Lan and looked somewhat presentable.

No one knows where Canglan found it, but the simple house construction blueprint she had hand-drawn before is now being built up to look quite decent on the first floor.

Upon learning of Su Mo's return, Cang Lan dropped what she was holding and excitedly ran towards her, her eyes sparkling with extraordinary joy, like a little puppy waiting to be praised.
Before Su Mo could speak, a series of rustling footsteps came from outside.

She subconsciously turned her head to look over.
