Transmigrated as a Rare Female: Beast Husbands Love Me Exclusively-Chapter 150: Jealousy
The moon’s shadow danced as a figure slowly emerged from behind the trees.
"I thought you didn’t want to see me," the man’s voice was a little hoarse.
"...No."
Was it that she didn’t want to see him, or just didn’t care at all?
The man’s light-colored pupils reflected the moonlight, the dense and heavy colors like an ink-washed painting, unspeakable emotions hidden within.
The man stepped forward a few paces, asking each word clearly: "Can you give me a chance?"
Ruan Li was slightly stunned: "What chance?"
"...A chance to get to know you again." Every time he recalled how he had lured her back then, like dragging the bright moon into the mire, disgraceful and despicable, he felt he wasn’t worthy to be in front of Ruan Li.
Even after climbing up to a mere major rank in the Federation, when he thought about appearing before her, he still felt it wasn’t enough...
If he could become the Commander, perhaps there would be a slight chance.
Ruan Li, aided by the moonlight, could just barely make out the man’s face.
To be honest, she didn’t have much impression of that event anymore, but she vaguely felt the man’s face seemed to have matured quite a bit.
"Okay."
Huishi lifted his head in shock, seemingly not expecting Ruan Li to agree so quickly.
"You, really agreed?" his voice slightly trembled.
Ruan Li nodded.
Huishi’s light-colored pupils burst with immense joy, his once delicate and harmless face now bore traces of battlefield hardening, not quite cold, but unable to hide the heroic spirit of youth.
He restrained his emotions, yet even so, Ruan Li could still see his joy in his expression.
A faint doubt arose in Ruan Li’s heart, but she didn’t ask.
"What are you talking about?" Zhe Ye returned, his gaze lightly sweeping over Huishi, unobtrusively pulling Ruan Li into his arms to declare his claim.
"Nothing much, just happened to run into Major Hui," Ruan Li patted Zhe Ye’s hand, soothing him.
Zhe Ye curled his lips: "I didn’t expect Major Huishi also has a habit of taking evening strolls."
Huishi pressed his lips together, saying: "Just happened to have something to ask Duchess Ruan Li."
He glanced at Ruan Li, only to find her half-embraced by Zhe Ye, their posture very intimate.
"...I won’t disturb you any longer, wish you a good night." Huishi took the initiative to say goodbye.
Only when his figure completely disappeared from view did Zhe Ye hold Ruan Li’s waist in one hand and her shoulder in the other, "The Duchess really knows how to spread her charm."
For the first time, Ruan Li heard Zhe Ye being so openly jealous. After a moment of surprise, she laughed out loud: "Zhe Ye, are you jealous?"
"I always thought you were very magnanimous."
Zhe Ye’s face darkened, "Magnanimous?"
He pinched Ruan Li’s cheek, lowering his voice, "Tonight I’ll show you how magnanimous I am."
He lifted her up with one hand.
The weightlessness made Ruan Li instinctively hold onto his neck, and before she could voice her inquiry, the man’s heavy breath pressed upon her.
With nothing to support her from behind, Ruan Li could only hold tightly to his neck, tilting her head to endure the fierce kiss.
...
"This is the last treatment. After you’re healed, you should take more time to recover; your superpower isn’t very stable," Ruan Li said.
"Understood." Even though it was the third time, he still couldn’t avoid tensing up as soon as her fingers touched him.
After transferring the Life Force, Ruan Li saw that all the wounds on his body had healed, "Alright, you can put your clothes back on."
Chu Ying wrapped himself in his outer garment, and seeing Ruan Li about to leave, he spoke urgently: "Ruan Li, are you leaving tomorrow?"
Ruan Li turned to look at him, seeing his clothes were on, she nodded: "Yes, I’ve finished my business with the Federation. Most of the Fierce Beasts have been purified, and I’ll return to the Empire tomorrow."
"...During this time, I’ve been busy with the Federation’s internal affairs and haven’t had a chance to show you around. Actually, there are many planets in the Federation with excellent sceneries. If you come back to the Federation next time, I can take you around." After speaking, Chu Ying felt he might have overstepped, but deep down, he didn’t want this to be the last time they met.
Ruan Li smiled: "Commander Chu is so busy, how could I trouble you?"
Chu Ying looked at her with dark eyes, saying: "It’s no trouble."
Ruan Li looked at him, "We’ll see then."
The main city in the Federation Capital Star had long since washed away the decay from the previous Fierce Beast invasion, now bustling and full of spring warmth.
Huishi saw Ruan Li and Zhe Ye about to head out, volunteering to show them around the main city.
Ruan Li, realizing she hadn’t had a proper tour of the main city during her stay, gladly agreed.
Except for a man who had long harbored open jealousy, Ruan Li held his hand, giving a comforting squeeze.
Though Zhe Ye’s face didn’t reveal it, he was very appreciative of such small gestures from her, especially since Ruan Li felt guilty and was more than willing to meet all his demands.
The Federation Capital Star boasts a renowned sight - the Hundred Flower Garden.
The garden hosts a wide variety of flowers, and with it being spring, the scenery is even more captivating.
As soon as Ruan Li entered the Hundred Flower Garden, she was dazzled by the riotous display of flowers vying for attention.
Fallen flowers swirled in the wind, forming an enchanting flower language. Whether it was the blooming pink and white flowers on the branches or the petal petals falling to the muddy ground, the scene was stunningly beautiful.
Ruan Li was almost dizzy from the sight.
She found a secluded path, following it she saw a towering tree, its branches lush and vibrant, clusters of reddish flowers blooming brilliantly.
"This is the Spring Tree. When it blooms, it heralds the arrival of spring, wilting in summer, hence people named it the Spring Tree."
"Beautiful," Ruan Li nodded, having said ’beautiful’ countless times today, cursing her lack of literary talent.
Huishi stood by her side, Zhe Ye stood between them, yet he could still see the little female’s look of awe.
It is the Spring Tree, Spring Flower, also known as the Love Tree, engagement flower.
Most people in the Federation pursue free romantic love, and although the Smart Brain would force a match at a certain age, they would strive to find a lifelong partner before that.
Many men and women gathered beneath the tree, and Ruan Li occasionally overheard the whispers of young couples. She pulled Zhe Ye in another direction,
"Why don’t you continue looking at that tree?" Zhe Ye asked with a raised eyebrow after they stopped.
Ruan Li, no fool, seeing so many couples under that tree, naturally guessed it was special.
Huishi didn’t follow, seemingly giving them space to be alone.
"It’s said that tree is five or six hundred years old, the only one like it in the entire interstellar, the Spring Tree, huh," Zhe Ye snorted, the words sounded pleasant enough, but making hints of affection before his female head, did they think he was dead?
Ruan Li hooked his finger, "Why bicker with him? We’re leaving tomorrow anyway. He’s a soldier of the Federation, there’s no way he could follow us to the Empire."
Zhe Ye grabbed her hand, pinning her against the trunk of the tree, slowly closing in, his ash-gray eyes dangerous and unyielding, "If I were going to bicker, it wouldn’t be when he’s not present to hear it."
The man nearly enveloped her, trapping her between his arms and the tree trunk, an aura of danger drawing ever closer.
