The Villainess Cannot Escape — Five Beast Husbands Chase Her Madly-Chapter 141: Jealousy: A Chaotic Scene for Fei Zhao
Night Abyss’s Adam’s apple bobbed nervously. His dark red, slitted pupils swirled with alarm and self-reproach. Blood seeped from his tightly clenched fists.
"Let go!"
Su An’an frowned and stepped forward. Prying open his hand, she found five bloody holes.
She pushed up his sleeve to reveal an arm covered in a dense network of scratches.
"Are you a masochist?"
Su An’an’s eyes suddenly burned, but the anger blazing within them was even stronger. "If you have the energy to hurt yourself, why don’t you use it to figure out how to save me?"
"I’ve been thinking about how to save you every single second."
Night Abyss’s whole body trembled violently, his voice as hoarse as sandpaper scraping across his heart.
"Just the thought of you getting hurt makes me want to kill myself."
"I’m fine. You don’t have to blame yourself!"
Su An’an wrapped her arms around his waist and stood on her tiptoes to kiss his trembling lips.
"Finding me this quickly was already amazing."
Her words were like the spring thaw, completely washing away the guilt that had frozen Night Abyss.
He pulled Su An’an back into his arms, his own arms trembling, though he didn’t dare to squeeze her tightly.
The moment he caught her familiar, creamy scent, all his fear and self-reproach melted into a surging wave of relief.
’Thank God, she’s okay!’
Su An’an pressed her cheek against Night Abyss’s heaving chest, listening as his heartbeat gradually steadied.
"There now."
She tilted her head up to place a kiss on his chin, then gently but firmly pulled away from his embrace.
Night Abyss’s arms froze in mid-air.
Although he longed to pull her back into his arms and shield her from all the dangers of the world, he could only reluctantly let her go when he saw the gentle smile in her eyes.
Su An’an turned to look at Lan Cangming, who was standing beside them.
The Mermaid Marshal stood as straight as a drawn Cold Sword. Beneath the wide brim of his hat, his blue-green eyes, like deep-sea whirlpools, were locked tightly on her.
"Lan Cangming!"
The moment she spoke, the Mermaid Marshal strode forward and said urgently:
"I didn’t hurt myself. Every single second, I was thinking about how to save you."
Su An’an broke into a smile and threw herself into his embrace, which smelled of frost and sea salt. She wrapped her arms around his lean waist.
"As expected of my Lord Marshal, always so composed."
Lan Cangming’s body tensed for a moment before he carefully wrapped his arms around Su An’an, as if holding a fragile treasure.
Night Abyss’s dark red, slitted pupils swept over Lan Cangming as bubbles of jealousy rose wildly in his heart.
’Damn ice-block fish!’
’How did I never notice what a good actor he is?’
’He tortures himself in the super-gravity room every night.’
’And he has the nerve to tell Su An’an he hasn’t been self-harming?’
’I only have external injuries, but this guy’s internal injuries are far worse!’
Big Cat’s beastly eyes were filled with thick jealousy.
The thought that Su An’an had already accepted Lan Cangming while he was away drove him mad with jealousy!
He swished his tail in irritation, only to freeze when it brushed against another ball of fluff.
Looking down, he saw Fei Zhao’s fluffy red fox tail hooked around the hem of Su An’an’s skirt, swaying gently.
Big Cat’s pupils shrank. His tiger tail lashed out like a steel whip, smacking the fox tail so hard its fur stood on end.
The next second, he had grabbed Fei Zhao by the collar, demanding through gritted teeth:
"Speak! How did you get your severed tail back? If the air on Black Star can regenerate you, why didn’t it just send you to heaven on the spot?"
"You’ve already seen it, so why ask?"
Fei Zhao tremblingly grabbed Big Cat’s claws. Red Fox Fire and silvery-white electricity collided with a BOOM.
The collar of his shirt was mostly torn open.
The fox’s snow-white skin was covered in red marks. It was obvious to anyone what had happened.
"Anan has suffered so much, yet instead of taking care of her, you took advantage of the situation! You deserve to die!"
Big Cat’s roar made the air BUZZ. The cold glint of his extended claws reflected on Fei Zhao’s pale face.
"Fei Zhao, you were the one who said you wanted to divorce Anan. What is the meaning of this now?"
A cold light flashed in Night Abyss’s dark red, slitted pupils. A purple-black toxic mist emerged from his palm, forming into venomous snakes.
"Fox, you’ve gone too far!"
The frost around Lan Cangming condensed into Ice Spikes that appeared at Fei Zhao’s feet.
"What are you doing? Stop it right now!"
Su An’an spread her arms to shield Fei Zhao, looking angrily at the enraged Big Cat, Poison Dragon, and mermaid. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢
"Anan, it’s all my fault. It’s only right that they want to teach me a lesson."
Fei Zhao hung his head, his nine tails drooping listlessly behind him. Even the newly grown fur at the very tips had lost its sheen.
"How can I blame you? You didn’t do it on purpose."
Su An’an quickly comforted Fei Zhao, then turned to Big Cat and the others, saying:
"You don’t know Fei Zhao’s situation at all. He had his reasons for leaving back then."
"His genes were collapsing, and he only had a month to live. He said he wanted a divorce so he wouldn’t drag me down with him."
"So that’s what happened!"
Night Abyss recalled how the Empire Business Alliance had been frantically investigating Fei Zhao, and the toxic mist swirling in his palm abruptly dissipated.
The Ice Spikes condensing at Lan Cangming’s fingertips also shattered with a CRASH.
"Reasons?" Big Cat’s tail slapped irritably against the ground, his tiger eyes flashing fiercely.
"Couldn’t he just say so? Did he have to push Anan away and go risk his life all by himself!"
Seeing Big Cat’s hackles rise, Su An’an sighed internally. ’Straightforward people are the hardest to deal with.’
She secretly pinched her thigh. The pain made her eyelashes tremble, and her eyes instantly welled up with tears.
"Big Cat, if you keep this up, I’m going to get really angry."
She turned her face away, her shoulders trembling slightly. "While I was being held on Black Star, I hoped every day that you all would come."
"Now that we’re finally reunited, I have to watch you all at each other’s throats."
Her tearful accusation struck Big Cat’s heart like a heavy hammer.
His ears instantly drooped, and he hurried over to coax her.
"Anan, don’t cry! I was wrong, I’ll stop. I’ll listen to you!"
Night Abyss silently removed his cloak and gently draped it over her slender shoulders.
Lan Cangming took her cold hand, a steady warmth flowing from his palm into hers.
Fei Zhao’s red eyes were filled with heartache as he cautiously shuffled a little closer to her.
Su An’an sniffled and took off the brilliant diamond tiara. A pair of pink, fluffy fox ears perked up from within her black hair.
"It’s really not Fei Zhao’s fault this time. If he hadn’t desperately ’recharged’ me, I wouldn’t have lasted this long, let alone awakened my Beast Blood."
"Anan! You really awakened your Beast Blood!"
Ying Jiuyao’s tiger eyes went wide, and his tail began to wag uncontrollably behind him. "They’re so cute! It’s like they were custom-made just for you!"
"They’re beautiful!"
A stunned brilliance flashed in Night Abyss’s dark red, slitted pupils.
Lan Cangming’s Adam’s apple bobbed. He reached out to touch them, but Su An’an dodged him.
"Don’t touch them, they’re itchy!"
Su An’an quickly backed away.
She wasn’t used to these new little ears yet. She usually kept them hidden in her hair.
Ying Jiuyao’s ears suddenly drooped. "Why wasn’t it because of me?" he said, aggrieved. "I guarded you and protected you every day, I even dreamed of you. Why wasn’t I the one who made you awaken!"
Night Abyss’s smile froze instantly. A dangerous glint appeared in his dark red pupils, and his gaze toward Fei Zhao was like a poisoned arrow.
Wisps of ice-blue mist began to drift silently from Lan Cangming’s body, as if silently questioning Fei Zhao.
