Raising Beast Husbands with My Space — The Villainess Becomes a Beloved Favorite-Chapter 217: Unable to Suppress

He thought about suppressing it deep in his heart, but the more he tried, the more his emotions surged.

This was the first time he had felt moved, and he was somewhat at a loss.

Su Muyao was astonished.

She thought Yun Qinglan would say something else, never expecting it to be related to emotions.

To her, it was very abrupt, as she hadn’t interacted with Yun Qinglan much, each time only treating his physical condition.

She had visited the Yun Family several times, and after healing him, she would leave, but the Yun Family always found ways to send her many things.

In her heart, she was very grateful, and she naturally sent many flour and vegetables back to the Yun Family.

Mr. Yun was also very kind, like a grandfather, without any airs, attentively providing her with all sorts of information.

Many news about the Beast Emperor City was also informed to her by Mr. Yun.

So when Yun Qinglan said he was emotionally moved by her, she was a bit caught off guard.

Seeing Su Muyao silent, Yun Qinglan’s heart sank; indeed, she had no thoughts or intentions towards him.

But this feeling made his chest tight and suffocated, as if he couldn’t breathe with his head buzzing.

Su Muyao came back to her senses and softly said, "Thank you for liking me."

"Young Master Yun, you are truly wonderful, but to me, it’s somewhat sudden, I had never considered this."

"I hadn’t planned to marry another Beast Husband."

"I also don’t want to hurt you."

She felt having five Beast Husbands was already enough, and she should treasure them.

Xie Guixue’s matter finally left her with some psychological shadow, so she wouldn’t rashly marry another Beast Husband.

Upon hearing this, Yun Qinglan’s once dim eyes regained a little sparkle, "I don’t seek status."

"Just having the opportunity to accompany Miss Su is enough."

Su Muyao wanted to refuse, thinking this was unfair to Yun Qinglan as she had no other intentions towards him.

It was then that the Space System spoke up, "Host, don’t be in such a hurry to refuse."

"He is a Thunder Beastman, who possesses strong Bloodline Power. With their constitution and Thunder Ability constantly evolving, I also sensed there’s some entanglement between you two; you knew him when you were young, maybe decide after recalling those childhood memories."

"Don’t say something that might hurt him prematurely; it might be regrettable when memories are restored."

Upon hearing this from the system, Su Muyao swallowed back the words she intended to say and spoke, "It’s still too early to talk about this, it’s very sudden for me too."

Yun Qinglan, knowing Miss Su hadn’t refused him, felt he still had a chance.

"I understand it’s sudden, it was my fault for not previously expressing anything. In the future, I’ll pursue Miss Su with sincerity, no matter how long it takes, and by then, Miss Su can give me an answer."

At this moment, Yun Qinglan felt his suffocating heart suddenly regain its breath, and his clear eyes revealed a shining splendor, "Okay."

He was grateful she was willing to give him this slight chance.

...

Inside Beast Emperor City

For a long time, due to health reasons, Her Majesty the Empress hadn’t attended court, but this day she appeared at grand court.

The princes, princesses, and ministers were all astonished and knelt, "Long live Her Majesty the Empress."

Though everyone knelt, their hearts were shaken.

Rumor had it Her Majesty was nearing the end of her health, hence not seen at court for so long.

All the ministers and noble families tried to inquire about her condition but couldn’t find out.

So, many privately aligned with the princes’ factions, yet a considerable number of Royalists remained unmoved.

Who could have imagined at this moment the empress appeared and even attended court.

Her authoritative and decisive demeanor seemed perfectly fine.

The privately aligned officials turned pale.

The empress’s gaze swept over the ministers, and her eyes were sharp and daunting.

Some lowered their heads, feeling cold sweat on their foreheads.

This empress wielded an iron hand, decisive and ruthless; if she were healthy, would she know about their secret actions and retaliate?

No one dared to speak rashly.

As was customary, during grand court, ministers initially praised the empress, then presented some matters.

Today, after a moment of silence, no one dared to speak first.

The empress scanned the assembly and commanded, "Does no one have anything to say about the recent Northern Territory war?"

Then a few ministers stood and spoke, "I believe it’s the Yun Family’s duty to defend the Northern Territory border. Apparently, this time the Yun Family sacrificed many to secure the border’s safety and many civilians were harmed, thus the Yun Family has counterbalanced their merits and faults."

Upon hearing this, someone angrily retorted, "Lord Lin’s words truly chill the hearts of the loyal generals. The Yun Family Army faced Dark Beastmen and Barbarian Beastmen triple their numbers! How many have sacrificed throughout generations to protect the border, yet for Lord Lin it’s so easy; perhaps he should guard the city next time..."

"Lord Zhou is quite right."

"Lord Lin makes a point; the Yun Family holds excessive power..."

Instantly, the court erupted in quarrel.

The empress observed the officials with a sharp glint in her eyes.

"It seems Lord Lin has a method to guard the border. So, from today, Lord Lin will head to Southwest Pass to assist in its defense."

Lord Lin turned pale, knees weakening, falling to the floor. Being a civil officer, how could he guard the city? With enemies ferocious in sieges, life was constantly at risk.

Not daring to oppose, Lord Lin could only look to King Chu, being his associate.

Yet, at this time, even King Chu refrained from speaking.

In the end, no one dared quarrel and began echoing for commendation toward the Yun Family.

Only then did the empress appear satisfied, "Since my beloved ministers agree, let’s proceed with rewarding based on merit."

Upon rewarding based on merit, Su Muyao mentioned in the memorial naturally held credit.

Thus, the empress promptly decreed Su Muyao’s redemption by merit, lifting the Su Family’s seal, allowing her return to Beast Emperor City.

People were stunned upon hearing Su Muyao’s name.

This commendation even included Su Zhihong’s daughter Su Muyao?

Just like that, she was summoned without guilt? Her exile status lifted?

Everyone’s attention initially focused on the Yun Family, only overlooking Su Muyao.

Regardless of their thoughts, the empress quickly dispatched the decree to the Northern Territory border.

...

Su Muyao returned from the Yun Family, finding Wen Nanxi and the others already prepared lunch for her.

During the meal, everyone eagerly offered Su Muyao dishes, competing fiercely for her favor.

Under their warm gazes, Su Muyao had just finished lunch, ready to relax, only for Wen Nanxi to wrap her in his snake tail to take her away.

Hua Linye nearly crushed his chopsticks in his hand, "That serpent sure acts swiftly."

His fox tail had been poised to reach her, but Wen Nanxi moved quicker.

Xiao Jihan coldly remarked, "Wen Nanxi often seems perfect and courteous, but let’s not forget he’s a Snake Beastman, with a snake’s nature hard to suppress. After holding back for long, who knows how he’ll torment his wife this time."

Indeed, these days he felt restrained too; after contracting, he tasted delight, but being too busy, he hadn’t had the chance to be intimate with his wife again.
