Where’d My Delicate Little Wife Go?

Xie Yunnan has been in a bad mood ever since he received those messy memories.

But seeing Duan Changqing staring at the ceiling helplessly after being knocked over by the cute and loving Xiaobai, he couldn’t help smiling.

If he can change this person’s fate, he will definitely be able to change his own fate!

It’s a pity that he didn’t know what happened in Hongye Forest. Why did those exotic beasts run out one after another?

Why did the exotic beasts in Hongye Forest run out? Of course it was because something happened in Hongye Forest.

Central district, Liao house.

Liao Muye was sitting in the study with a wanted notice spread out in front of him.

Above the wanted notice is a photo. The person in the photo is wearing a black mask and leather armor, holding a large knife and exuding a terrifying aura.

Below the photo are the details.

There is very little known information. It doesn’t even have their name or companion beast. All that’s known is that they assassinated many people, are at least a ninth-level warrior, and the leader of the rebel army, nicknamed the Ghost King.

The Ghost King has been active for more than 20 years, terrorizing many over the years, and is an S-level wanted criminal.

Few people know that he lived in Hongye Forest most of the time.

In his last life, Liao Muye didn’t know why the beasts in Hongye Forest ran out. But after he accidentally rescued this person, he learned of the whole story.

A week ago, there was a rebellion in the Holy City. The Ghost King also stepped in, killing a few nobles during the chaos, and then hid in Hongye Forest.

No one could have imagined that… the worshiped and well-protected high priest in the Holy City was actually killed by some nobles in the Holy City during the rebellion. The situation was very chaotic at that time, and his body also fell into the river.

Not many people knew about this matter. When the people on the high priest’s side knew where the high priest ended up… his body had already drifted down the river to Hongye Forest.

The high priest had something on his body that drove the exotic beasts crazy. His corpse attracted the attention of many creatures in the river and became dilapidated.

And this tattered corpse eventually floated to Hongye Forest…

The exotic beasts were originally reluctant to leave the corpse at first, but when the number grew too large, and they were crowded together, they began fighting. In the end, it was snatched by the strongest beasts in Hongye Forest.

The exotic beast that ate the high priest’s body would be attacked by other exotic beasts. Those powerful exotic beasts were beaten and eventually retreated, but a large area of ​​Hongye Forest was destroyed.

The beasts at the bottom of the food chain couldn’t survive the aftermath of the battle of powerful exotic beasts, so they all ran out with their tails between their legs.

How could Hongye City not suffer?

The battle of those exotic beasts even affected many rebels hiding in Hongye Forest.

The Ghost King, an S-level wanted criminal, was injured in the Holy City. After returning to Hongye Forest… In order to protect his subordinates from the exotic beasts, he was seriously injured.

At that time, Liao Muye was still pursuing Xie Yunnan. Seeing that there were more and more beasts wandering in the fringe area, he asked Xie Yunnan to move to the central district, but Xie Yunnan was unwilling. He insisted on rescuing people from the exotic beasts.

He didn’t want Xie Yunnan to be injured, so he stayed behind to protect Xie Yunnan. One of the days they went out, they met and save the unconscious rebel leader.

This person was grateful for their life-saving grace, and helped them a lot after that. When Xie Yunnan and him parted ways, he didn’t know what Xie Yunnan did for that person to choose Xie Yunnan.

Later, when the man unexpectedly died, those under him continued to follow Xie Yunnan.

Xie Yunnan really likes to please people.

But in this life, he will save people alone.

If he can get the power in this person’s hands…

Liao Muye clenched the wanted order, and his heart surged.

He wanted to see Xie Yunnan again.

In his last life, he once liked Xie Yunnan very much. Even if he doesn’t like him anymore, Xie Yunnan is still the person occupying most of his thoughts.

He wanted to see Xie Yunnan futilely struggle at the bottom, and end up with nothing!

Liao Muye left the study.

As soon as he came outside, he saw Yan Yuge coming in from outside and raised a smile at him: “Brother Liao, are you going out?”

“En.” Liao Muye said.

Liao Muye didn’t like Yan Yuge, who had been pestering him since he was a child.

In his previous life, this person always troubled Xie Yunnan. He even warned this person several times.

It’s a pity that this person didn’t listen to him and finally wanted to kill Xie Yunnan… After he rescued Xie Yunnan, for their shared childhood, he let Yan Yuge go. But later, Yan Yuge was killed by the person on the wanted order.

That was undoubtedly Xie Yunnan’s intent; Xie Yunnan has a viciousness that does not match his appearance.

“Where are you going, Brother Liao?” Yan Yuge asked again.

Liao Muye said, “Going to the fringes.”

Yan Yuge’s expression changed.

Liao Muye ignored him and walked out.

Yan Yuge has always hated Xie Yunnan. He would have stopped him in his last life, but now without him, what would Yan Yuge do?

Without him, what would happen to Xie Yunnan?

When Liao Muye went out, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

Xie Yunnan, who was occupying Liao Muye’s mind, got up early in the morning to make breakfast. The chicken rice left over from last night was only enough for one person.

After starting up the rice cooker, Xie Yunnan heated up the chicken rice leftovers and gave half of it to Duan Changqing.

Duan Changqing finished it in three or two bites.

“Are you feeling okay?” Xie Yunnan couldn’t help asking. This person ate two bowls of chicken rice last night. Although he bought stomach-strengthening and digestive tablets, he didn’t end up giving the to him since the man seemed to be fine.

This person’s stomach…is he okay?

Duan Changqing smiled at Xie Yunnan.

He didn’t seem to have any problems at all. Instead, he held the empty bowl, and looked like he still wanted more.

Xie Yunnan said: “I’ll cook, and give you something to eat later.”

This man’s stomach is obviously not as fragile as he thought. Since that’s the case, it’s okay to let him eat more.

Although Xie Yunnan wanted to save more money so that he could better cope with the various things that would happen in the future, he’s not stingy enough to prevent a patient from being full.

He had already cooked a large pot of rice, so he went to prepare a bowl of pickles and some eggs.

The pickles are made from unsold scraps from the nearby plantations.

The plantations produce many crops, and those that meet the requirements will be sent to the central district and the general district. Those that do not meet the requirements will be discarded.

People in the fringes will collect these ‘scraps’ from the plantations.

These include small or misshapen potatoes, poorly grown vegetables, and the leaves of plants where only the roots are eaten.1e.g., yam leaves, which are actually very tasty!

When Xie Yunnan was very young, he would go to work in a nearby plantation with other children, and pick up the unwanted leaves and like, to dry or pickle.

Now that he’s grown up, he doesn’t do such things anymore. He bought the pickles from the children nearby.

Xie Yunnan moved a small table beside the bed, put the food on it, and gave Duan Changqing a bowl of rice.

Duan Changqing held the bowl and ate the spoon with his thin hands.

After eating for a while, he said to Xie Yunnan, “It’s very delicious!”

With his powerful consciousness, he finally learned how to say a few words!

Children in cartoons always say this when eating their favorite foods.

Xie Yunnan was a little confused.

This strange tone, and pronunciation…

But he was more concerned about another thing: “You can speak?”

Duan Changqing nodded, then pointed to his own throat: “I’m very uncomfortable, ah!”

He doesn’t know how to say much, so he planned to pretend that he was uncomfortable first.

Xie Yunnan: “…” He spoke like he was a spoiled child, and even added the particle, ‘ah’ at the end.

If it weren’t for his face looking good, speaking in this tone would make people want to hit him.

Xie Yunnan calmed down, and finally accepted the matter. “Don’t talk if you’re uncomfortable.” This person can eat and is sane, which is good.

Although his tone is a big scary, it’s also cute.

“I will be good.” Duan Changqing said again. In the cartoon he watched, after the protagonist’s parents explained things, the protagonist would always say this, so he repeated it intact.

Because he was worried that the language here had requirements for pitch or something, he used the same pitch.

Xie Yunnan inhaled a deep breath. “Well, you’re good.” He actually thought that this person was a little cute… His aesthetics didn’t seem right…

Duan Changqing looked at Xie Yunnan and blinked, realizing that something was wrong.

Xie Yunnan’s reaction… Is there something wrong with what he said?

Thinking about it this way, Duan Changqing didn’t want to pretend to be uncomfortable anymore, but wanted to study systematically. “I want to study.”

He wanted to study by himself, but was afraid it wouldn’t be easy. It’s better to have some study materials.

“What do you want to learn?” Xie Yunnan was puzzled.

Duan Changqing said: “Speakin!”

After the chicken and duck talked and gestured for a while, Xie Yunnan finally understood… he has never learned to speak before, so he doesn’t know how to speak.

Was he locked up as a child? The person who locked him up didn’t let him study?

Xie Yunnan instantly made up the scene of a child being bullied in an isolated basement because of his good looks.

No wonder his skin is abnormally white, this child is too pitiful!

After thinking about it, Xie Yunnan dug out the textbooks he used when he was a child.

It’s just that he has to open the shop and has no time to teach Duan Changqing… After Xie Yunnan thought about it, he pulled up and subscribed to a TV channel specializing in teaching children for the man to learn from.

“Thank you! You are so kind, you are the best!” Duan Changqing smiled at Xie Yunnan.

When Xie Yunnan went downstairs to work, he was inexplicably relaxed.

Being complimented by a big beauty… feels pretty good.

 

I want a human-like chipmunk now… Just imagining it, so cute~
