Shen Tang pressed her lips, "Yes, I’ve been looking for him all along."
Yue Lin’s voice beca more hoarse, "What exactly is your relationship with him?"
Shen Tang looked into the deep, clear, and cool black eyes of the Silver Wolf youth, seeming to glimpse a hint of hidden sadness.
She hesitated, not fully understanding its aning, but for Yue Lin, who had always helped her, she no longer wanted to hide anything, so she candidly said:
"He is my Beast Husband."
Yue Lin felt like he had been struck on the head, his breath halted for a mont, and he looked at the female in front of him in disbelief.
Her candid and clear gaze told him that she was not lying this ti; what she said was true.
He abruptly stood up from the sofa, losing his usual composure, grabbed her wrist, and his deep voice was filled with urgency, "Xun Fu? Are you sure you didn’t find the wrong person? How could he possibly be your Beast Husband!"
Yue Lin was not a naïve, idealistic Beastman.
He had long understood that a young, beautiful female like Xun Fu, who also possessed exceptional superpower, likely had many suitors even before adulthood.
He knew it was impossible for her not to have a Beast Husband, but no other person had ever appeared beside her, and she had never ntioned it, so Yue Lin subconsciously didn’t pay much attention to this matter.
Perhaps, her Beast Husband had already died on the battlefield.
Yue Lin wanted to find a female who cared only for him, but he didn’t mind her past as long as there were no other males in her life from now on.
As the Young Master of the Yue Family, he was confident he could take good care of his partner, and she wouldn’t need to seek others.
But he never expected that Xun Fu’s Beast Husband was still alive.
If it were anyone else, he had plenty of ways, power, money, implicit or explicit tactics, to take them away from her side.
But her Beast Husband is that "Mad Beast"?
How is that possible?!
"In the information I found, Shou Jin was locked in the Death Abyss at the age of twelve and has been sealed there for over a decade. How could he possibly be your Beast Husband?" Yue Lin stared at her, "Have you ever thought... you might have mistaken him for soone else?"
"I..." Shen Tang’s mind was also a bit chaotic. In fact, she couldn’t be a hundred percent sure that Jin was Xiao Jin, but she couldn’t deny it either.
Even if there was only a slight possibility, she didn’t want to give up, nor did she want to see Jin get hurt.
Therefore, she would do her utmost to help him, even if it ant risking her life.
She didn’t want to have any more regrets.
She couldn’t just watch him disappear in front of her eyes again.
"I will continue to investigate this matter. Captain, please don’t try to persuade anymore." Shen Tang withdrew her hand, her tone sowhat indifferent, "It’s getting late, Captain, you should rest early. I’ll be going now."
She turned to leave, but the man quickly caught up, pulling her back into his arms.
The beautiful and cool face was right in front of her, Yue Lin looked at her with restraint, a thin layer of anger, confusion, and unyielding determination in his deep eyes.
"...Xun Fu, listen to , don’t bother with him anymore."
"Regardless of whether Shou Jin is your Beast Husband or not, don’t bother with him anymore. He will bring you great trouble, even catastrophe. You will be wanted by the entire Hunting Leopard Clan, becoming a co-conspirator!"
"Co back to the Royal City with ."
The man’s adam’s apple moved, his voice lowered, "Stay by my side."
Shen Tang’s body stiffened, not knowing how to respond.
After spending these days together, she almost forgot that this person in front of her was the Young Master of the Yue Family, one of the most noble n on this planet, inherently proud and domineering, his determinations hard to change.
But she didn’t quite understand, why was he so intent on keeping her?
Was it because she was his team mber?
But Yue Lin was usually indifferent and distant to Yin Luo, Jiang Mu, and the others, never showing such forceful attempts to hold soone back.
Seeing the confusion in the female’s eyes, Yue Lin took a few deep breaths, took her hand, and slowly pressed it to his chest.
Ultimately, he spoke the words,
"Can’t you see, I like you?"
Boom!
Shen Tang only felt like a thunderbolt struck her brain, her eyes widened in astonishnt. After Yue Lin said those words, his whole body also heated up, his ears slightly reddening.
Seeing her stunned expression, his heart felt stifled, a wave of lancholy rose up.
After spending these days together, did she not perceive his feelings at all?
Did he not make it obvious enough?
Or was it... she simply didn’t have that kind of feeling for him.
Yue Lin had never had to pursue a female in his life. With his looks, strength, and family background, wherever he went, females would approach him, and even so males would show him favor.
As a result, it never occurred to him that Shen Tang might not be interested in him.
