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

Chapter 76 Sharing a Bed? A Night Destined to Be Sleepless.

Mu Qianxue froze instantly.

Her ears blushed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Even her usually aloof and snow-white face was tinged with crimson, and she could no longer maintain her calm expression.

Her hand holding the corner of the blanket trembled slightly, and her eyes were filled with uncontrollable panic. She was caught in a dilemma and didn't know what to do.

"I…"

Mu Qianxue hesitated, her once eloquent and composed words now stammering.

After a brief pause, the image of her husband tucking her in when she was drunk that day flashed through her mind, and she hastily used this as an excuse to whisper:

"I noticed that your blanket wasn't covering you properly, and I was worried that you'd catch a cold in the middle of the night, so I wanted to tuck the blanket around you."

But when she said this, her eyes darted away, and she seemed extremely guilty.

After all, what he did just now was hardly tucking in the blanket.

She clearly wanted to sneak into bed and enjoy a moment of tenderness with her husband.

"Waaah! Waaah!"

Before Chen Lianshu could reply, Su Jiu'er immediately seized the opportunity and broke free from the struggle.

She darted back into her husband's arms, grabbed his collar with her claws, and barked wildly at Mu Qianxue.

The action began with baring its teeth, then flicking its tail, followed by pointing its paws at Mu Qianxue, and then at the spot where it had just been moved.

She desperately wanted to reveal everything that had just happened, exposing Mu Qianxue's "crime" of moving her closer to her husband with ulterior motives.

"?"

Chen Lianshu naturally couldn't understand fox language, let alone the little guy's complaint.

He first glanced at his senior sister, who was blushing with embarrassment, then at Jiu'er, who was in a fit of anger in his arms, and finally couldn't help but chuckle.

"Alright, Jiu'er, be quiet."

Chen Lianshu gently patted Jiu'er's back to comfort her.

Then, looking at Mu Qianxue, who was still clutching the corner of the blanket, he tentatively asked:

"Senior sister, can you give me back my blanket now?"

"After all, it's chilly at night, and leaving it open like this isn't a good solution."

"!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Qianxue finally realized what was happening and, as if burned, abruptly released her grip.

"Feel sorry."

She hurriedly stood up, took two steps back, and seemed flustered and at a loss.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.

But the flutter in her heart and the flush on her face were impossible to hide.

However, Chen Lianshu seemed oblivious to her senior sister's embarrassment and offered her a way out:

"Are you tired, Senior Sister?"

"Why don't you rest first, and I'll keep watch?"

"No need, I..."

Mu Qianxue instinctively wanted to refuse.

"I just..."

She quickly realized that her husband was trying to get her out of a difficult situation.

In the end, I agreed.

"Okay, I am indeed a little tired."

"Then, Senior Sister, please get some rest."

Chen Lianshu then stood up and gave up her resting spot.

Mu Qianxue walked to the edge of the blanket, but hesitated to lie down.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing this, Chen Lianshu couldn't help but ask with concern:

"But is there anything else you need?"

"without."

Mu Qianxue shook her head, met her husband's eyes, and solemnly thanked him:

Thank you.

I don't know if this thank you was to my husband for letting me rest;

It was Xie's husband who not only didn't pursue her strange words and actions, but also gave her a way out by expressing his gratitude.

"Senior sister, there's no need to be so polite. Just as you said..."

Chen Lianshu said gently:

"We are fellow disciples, so it is only right that we look after each other."

"Um."

Mu Qianxue responded with a faint "yes".

She then pretended to be "calm" and lay down in the bedding where her husband had just rested.

This time, surprisingly, Su Jiu'er didn't complain.

After all, it's much easier than fighting over a blanket.

Clearly, staying in her husband's arms is more comfortable and allows her to assert her sovereignty as the "first wife".

"..."

She felt the warmth of the bedding and the scent of her husband within it.

Mu Qianxue thought she would be even more restless and even have trouble falling asleep.

Unexpectedly, the moment she was enveloped by the aura, her tense nerves gradually relaxed.

Even the weariness that was originally there welled up in my heart.

She tried to remain calm and keep her movements as still as possible.

But I still subconsciously pulled the blanket tighter and burrowed deeper into it, trying to feel as much as possible.

Although I haven't achieved my goal of sharing a bed with my husband, the current feeling... seems pretty good.

[Ding! The tribulation is being repaired...]

[The correct path: 31%]

A system notification sounded from the consciousness sea.

Chen Lianshu seemed to have anticipated this.

Seeing the unusual movement in the other person's favorability indicator, he suddenly spoke softly:

"Senior sister."

"Um?!"

The sound startled Mu Qianxue, making her heart leap.

She thought she had revealed too much of her secret thoughts, so she tensed up and tried to appear calm:

"What's wrong?"

"fine."

Chen Lianshu chuckled softly and soothed him gently:

"Senior sister, there's no need to be so nervous. With your junior brother keeping watch, you can rest assured."

"...Yes, thank you."

Another thank you.

The two fell silent again, with only the soft crackling of the campfire.

"..."

Mu Qianxue secretly gazed at her husband's profile, her fingers gripping the blanket tightening unconsciously, burying her face even deeper.

That night I thought was destined to be sleepless.

Before long, enveloped by her husband's breath, her breathing gradually became steady, and she fell into a deep sleep.

……

The next day, at noon.

After resting, Chen Lianshu and Mu Qianxue set off together, walking through the secret realm.

Logically, if two people have a pair of jade pendants that can pinpoint each other's location, they should be able to determine each other's position.

If Xueyan and Su Jiu'er were taken along separately, given the two little ones' treasure-hunting talents, they would definitely reap a great harvest if they went their separate ways.

Unfortunately, both Su Jiu'er and Xiao Xueyan were very attached to Chen Lianshu.

With no other option, the two had to give up.

Of course, only Chen Lianshu thought this way.

Mu Qianxue also did not want to be separated from her husband.

"Meow!"

"Waaaaah!"

Along the way, Mu Qianxue witnessed firsthand the two little ones' remarkable treasure-hunting skills.

"Not bad, it's actually a Spirit Worship Flower."

Following the directions of the two little creatures, Chen Lianshu discovered a pale blue flower.

It must be said that the trio's combination was truly efficient.

With Xueyan and Su Jiu'er's exceptional talents and keen observation skills, they even managed to uncover rare and precious natural treasures that were hidden in the most remote and difficult-to-find corners.

Furthermore, the information Chen Lianshu possessed indicated that the three of them achieved twice the result with half the effort.

"..."

And look at how well the person and the two beasts cooperated.

Mu Qianxue couldn't help but find it amusing, and at the same time, she couldn't help but recall the ordinary times she spent with her husband.

I couldn't help but feel happy and content.

[The correct path: 32%]

"?"

Chen Lianshu turned around in confusion.

Although Mu Qianxue's expression remained unchanged and calm as usual, the favorability indicator above her head had changed.

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

Seeing her husband looking over, she asked in confusion.

But Chen Lianshu only asked one inexplicable question:
