Chapter 727: He Didn’t Love the Wrong Person

After the kiss, Si Mobai gently wrapped his arms around Feng Tianlan’s waist. His eyes were full of warmth as he looked down at her, and his slightly calloused hands gently stroked her fair and smooth cheeks. “Lan’er, you’re the best. I promise I’ll live up to the faith you have in me.”

She’d once feared and doubted him but had still chosen to believe him in the end, and this moved him from the bottom of his heart, and his love for her grew even stronger.

She was the woman that he’d set his sights on at first glance. Her trust in him was proof that he’d picked the right person.

“Because Mobai is someone worth trusting.” Feng Tianlan moved his hand away. Because of his callouses, her cheeks felt slightly itchy and prickled.

He’d done way too much for her. One-sidedly establishing the natal contract, as well as taking a blood oath that would take effect if there was ever a change in affection. Every time she faced a dire life or death situation, he’d always appear and take action to rescue her.

All the literary depictions of heroes saving beauties had been reenacted by them many times over.

If he really wanted to kill her, he didn’t need to hire assassins to do it. As long as he did it himself, she’d have no way to defend herself. And, if it was a matter of protecting his reputation, he could’ve just kept her locked in Guiyuan Continent rather than take the pains to bring her along to Xuantian Continent.

No matter what the reason was, Mobai had no reason to kill her, especially not by setting up an ambush like this. This was clearly a trap someone had set up to frame him in order to incite disharmony between her and Mobai. She wasn’t stupid enough to fall into their trap.

After listening to her words, Si Mobai’s heart melted even more. He stretched out an arm and locked her in his embrace, gently resting his chin on the top of her head. He uttered in a soft but hoarse voice, “This won’t happen again. I will investigate it.”

Even if he had to slaughter one hundred innocent men, he wouldn’t let a single suspicious person go.

In his arms, Feng Tianlan obediently acknowledged his words and said warmly, “I believe you.”

That’s just how she was. Loving him meant believing him. If she had to pick between believing a stranger and the person she cherished most, she’d pick the person she cherished most. Anyone with half a brain would do the same.

Perhaps she loved way too rationally, but what was wrong with that, with loving and protecting each other until they grew old without too many misunderstandings getting in the way?

“I’ll go take a bath. Wait for your husband.” Si Mobai loosened his hold on her and gently planted a kiss on her forehead before turning around and heading to the bathroom.

Feng Tianlan stared at Si Mobai’s straight, rigid back as he left, remembering the sense of security and happiness she’d felt when he’d carried her. Her lips curled into a smile. She became even more determined in her belief that no matter what happened in the future, if she had to make choice between him and someone else, she would definitely choose to believe him.

Because he was someone worth trusting.

...

When Chen Xinlu saw Chen Xinyi sulking, she felt an overwhelming sense of impatience and said, “Older Sister, feeling depressed over the situation will do you no good. Why don’t you take some real action?”

“Master Shen is a...” When Chen Xinyi recalled that scene, her words instantly got stuck in her throat, and she looked like someone who’d just swallowed a fly.

“Even if he is a cut-sleeve, it doesn’t matter. In the end, he still has to get married and have kids. You might as well go and sleep with Master Shen right now and do what needs to be done. Show him how the perks of being with a woman. If you’re lucky and bear his child, everything will belong to you.”

When she heard Chen Xinlu’s shockingly profane words, her eyes widened. “How could I, this is simply...” Violating the virtues of a woman and transgressing societal mores!

“There’s nothing that can’t be done. Being a cut-sleeve is the true transgression. If you did this, you’d be saving Master Shen from a deep sea of suffering and pulling him out of the sea of fire. Don’t forget that the Demon King is an engaged man. Master Shen is the one who was cheated. He’s a victim!”

“But...”

“Think it over for yourself. If Master Shen continues to stay in the pit of fire, you should just do what needs to be done and rescue him.” Chen Xinlu left a book behind and turned around to take her leave.

When Chen Xinyi saw that shameful book, her small face reddened. She sank into deep contemplation, and, after a long time, finally clenched her fists and decided to risk it all by flipping open the book. For Master Shen, she would finish reading this book before using her body to save Master Shen from the sea of fire!
