Fairy, please have some self-respect. I am not the reincarnation of your deceased husband.

Chapter 111 Flirting to each other's faces? Do they think I'm invisible?

If Mu Qianxue didn't still have that aloof and beautiful face, such remarks would be considered "yandere".

Chen Lianshu would definitely turn around and run away!

The series of actions just now were incredibly smooth and fluid, completely outmaneuvering Shen Yueli.

They even had a complete grasp of the other party's psychology.

After that demoness was taken away—

Although Mu Qianxue felt relieved, she didn't know what to say for a moment when her gaze fell on her husband.

All I can do is try my best to appear calm and composed.

"What was Senior Sister just now—?"

In the end, Chen Lianshu spoke first.

"It's nothing."

Mu Qianxue regained her composure: "I merely escorted her to the outer perimeter of the main hall of this cave."

"and you--"

Before Chen Lianshu could finish speaking, Mu Qianxue guessed what he wanted to ask and answered first: "She actively used her spiritual power to protect herself in order to defend against the immobilization spell."

"The activation method of this teleportation array is also very simple. Once the mechanism is touched, as long as spiritual energy fluctuations are detected, it will forcibly suck people in."

"Oh, I see."

Chen Lianshu tacitly refrained from questioning how she knew these things, and instead asked, "So, should we go in with her?"

"No need."

Mu Qianxue came to her husband's side, clearly showing no intention of going inside: "We have a better place to go."

"The teleportation array only leads to the outer perimeter of the main hall; further trials are required to enter."

"But I know a way that leads directly into the main hall."

As she spoke, she held Xueyan, who was in her husband's arms, in one arm.

With her other hand, she naturally took her husband's hand and whispered, "Let's go, I'll take you there."

"————"

This time, Su Jiu'er unexpectedly didn't breathe on Mu Qianxue.

Having just witnessed the other party's methods, the little fox was afraid that this woman would throw him into the teleportation array as well.

She didn't want to be separated from her husband.

It's just holding hands, isn't it?

She endured it!

Anyway, she's even slept in her husband's bed, so what's a little hand-holding?

Besides, her husband was holding her.

Upon closer inspection, I realized I actually benefited!

"snort."

The little guy gave a haughty hum, but his behavior was very well-behaved.

She even snuggled closer to her husband, as if afraid of being pulled away like a lazy cat.

"Meow?"

Xiao Xueyan didn't understand what was going on from beginning to end.

It naturally wanted to follow Chen Lianshu, but seeing the cold-faced senior sister's expression, it chickened out and obediently let her hold it.

"From now on, it's just us."

"There will be no more unwanted people bothering us."

After saying that, Mu Qianxue took her husband's hand and turned to walk towards the path leading to the main hall that she remembered.

She never looked back, not daring to glance at her husband again.

Because she was afraid of showing her weakness.

Even after walking for a while, her heart was still pounding and she couldn't calm down for a long time.

Even now, Mu Qianxue herself can hardly believe how boldly she had taken her husband's hand just now.

I wonder what my husband will think—

Thinking of this, she felt increasingly uneasy.

After being led around the whole way, Chen Lianshu finally made a move.

"!"

Mu Qianxue was startled, thinking that her husband was going to abandon her.

But the next moment—

The other person took the initiative to hold her hand, and they even intertwined their fingers.

"?!"

This single action left Mu Qianxue frozen in place, completely at a loss.

She still didn't turn around, so the other person couldn't see her disheveled and shy state.

Chen Lianshu spoke up at the right moment: "What's wrong?"

"No—let's go."

Mu Qianxue's voice trembled noticeably, but she forced herself to remain calm.

[The correct path: 33%]

Just as Chen Lianshu had guessed, progress had increased.

He naturally wouldn't miss any opportunity to accelerate his progress.

"Waaaaah—"

In stark contrast to this ambiguous atmosphere was Su Jiu'er's extremely frustrated mood.

She experienced being an "incompetent wife" once again.

She could only watch helplessly as her husband took the hand of another woman, and she could only dare to be angry but dare not speak out.

This feeling is just too unbearable.

Although she still had the spiritual power from one transformation, she was saving it for a crucial moment and couldn't afford to waste it easily.

I had no choice but to hold it in.

The little fox felt extremely wronged.

Mu Qianxue naturally ignored the dramatic fox.

Her entire being was focused on her husband.

Although this wasn't the first time the two had held hands, it was the first time the husband had taken the initiative to hold her hand in return.

They were even holding hands tightly—

She admitted that she held her husband's hand not just to lead the way, but also because she had "a little" ulterior motive.

But to her utter surprise, her husband would hold her hand back.

I never expected that our fingers would be intertwined—

Since her husband took the initiative to hold her hand, does this mean that his attitude towards her has changed?

It wasn't just about her senior sister; there was a hint of something else between them.

Mu Qianxue became more and more confused, not because she couldn't figure it out, but because she was overwhelmed by joy.

She took a deep breath and tried to make her steps appear calm and composed.

At that moment, she truly dared not look back.

I absolutely cannot let him see me like this.

As Chen Lianshu watched the progress increase, she felt that there was still room for improvement.

He then tightened his grip slightly and gently rubbed the back of the other person's hand with his thumb.

i”

Mu Qianxue's body stiffened again, and she froze on the spot once more.

However, the progress did not increase this time.

"Senior sister?"

"It's alright, it's just ahead."

Her voice remained cool and clear, but her cheeks were already burning hot.

"Alright, then I'll trouble you to lead the way, Senior Sister."

Seeing her like this, Chen Lianshu didn't continue.

After all, we're in a secret realm, so safety comes first.

The teleportation array inside the main hall is not far from the outer perimeter.

About an hour later, the two arrived.

This place is no different from before; it is still hidden by stone walls, and one can enter simply by gathering spiritual energy.

"This is it."

Mu Qianxue stopped in her tracks, finally having a reason to let go.

Although she didn't want to loosen up at all, she had no choice but to.

She tried her best to adjust her mindset along the way. Although she appeared calm on the surface, her heart was still in turmoil.

After confirming that there was nothing unusual, she turned to Chen Lianshu and said in a steady voice, "Pass through this stone wall, and you will be inside the main hall."

"Um."

Chen Lianshu nodded, glanced around, and then looked at the stone wall: "Let's go in."

"it is good."

Mu Qianxue responded and was about to take the lead.

Suddenly, her body froze again.

"?"

Because her husband actually took her hand.

It wasn't even a reverse grip, but a genuine, proactive handshake.

Finally, she could no longer hold back and lowered her head, her face flushed.

"Senior sister."

"Um?"

Even with her head down, the reddened tips of her ears and cheeks were impossible to hide.
