The Wicked Female Is Wild and Scheming, Living in a Love Battlefield Every Day-Chapter 164: Apology

Luna Sutton felt a chill at the back of her neck under Zeke Veridian’s gaze and forced a chuckle, "That’s just a side effect of The Fox Clan’s Charm Technique!"

Suddenly, she hooked her hand around Kian Sterling’s neck, "If you don’t believe me, ask Kian Sterling. Doesn’t your Nine-Tails’ secret technique cause people to say one thing and mean another, spout nonsense?"

Kian Sterling raised an eyebrow, and his nine fox tails suddenly wrapped around them, lifting them into the air, "Luna’s right, our Fox Clan’s secret technique indeed..."

Before he could finish, a playful laugh sounded from a nearby ancient tree:

"Haha... Zeke, Cynthia is speaking the truth. Your mouth indeed isn’t any less venomous, it’s normal not to like it, so why be angry?"

Everyone turned their gaze towards that direction to see Malachi Arcanus lazily leaning against a tree branch, his figure almost completely hidden by dense foliage. In the dark night, he was nearly invisible unless you looked carefully.

Who knows when he appeared.

Luna Sutton’s mouth twitched a few times upon seeing Malachi Arcanus.

Goodness, all five Beast Husbands came without missing anyone. This chaotic scene is truly getting more lively.

Malachi Arcanus leaped down from the tree, wildness emanating as he landed.

With a smile on his face, his gaze lingered on Luna Sutton for a moment before turning to Zeke Veridian, "Zeke, she’s right about your mouth needing a change."

Zeke Veridian’s emerald eyes flickered with displeasure, coldly sweeping a glance at Malachi Arcanus, "Of course you’d say that since she wasn’t talking about you. It’s easy to talk when it’s not about yourself!"

Malachi Arcanus crossed his arms, his eight-pack abs glimmering with a honey hue in the moonlight, as he teased with a raised brow, "Funny thing, she didn’t mention a single bad word about me just now."

His dark eyes swept over Luna Sutton’s moist lips, "Seems like this wild wolf of mine is pretty favored among females, unlike someone whose venomous mouth scares every female in the tribe without knowing to change."

Zeke Veridian’s cool and indifferent face instantly turned as black as a pot’s bottom.

His emerald gaze shot towards Malachi Arcanus, coldly saying, "Malachi, what’s the matter? Are you looking for a fight with me?"

Malachi Arcanus smirked slightly, "Fight? I don’t have that kind of free time, just speaking the truth."

Zeke Veridian coldly snorted, dissatisfied, "Stop sowing discord, don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to!"

Malachi Arcanus glanced at him, laughing indifferently, "What could I be up to? Just reminding you to tone down your venom, or else Cynthia might kick you to the curb, leaving you single and without someone to make you good food."

Zeke Veridian’s face darkened, just about to retort.

Suddenly, Rhys Blackwood snapped his snake tail, wrapping it around Luna Sutton’s waist, seemingly trying to snatch her away.

Kian Sterling’s fox tails suddenly expanded, and nine waves of snow forced Rhys Blackwood’s snake tail to release, as he carried Luna Sutton and flew to the top of the ancient tree.

The Purple Gold Fox Fire flickered at the tip of his tails, nearly scorching Rhys Blackwood’s snake skin.

"Snatching people secretly is not right."

His sidelong glance fell on Rhys Blackwood, whose face was unsightly after retracting his snake tail, a meaningful smile appearing on his lips.

As he finished, he lowered his head to kiss Luna Sutton’s collarbone, his voice gentle enough to drown in, "Luna just said she likes me the most, her sincerity is one hundred percent, is that true?"

The heat from Kian Sterling’s lips sent a shiver through her body, her peripheral vision catching four murderous gazes below, making her expression freeze instantaneously, "Of course it’s..."

The word ’fake’ almost slipped out.

Considering that the most important thing now was gaining Kian Sterling’s trust to make him reveal the mystery of his origins, she changed her tune.

She suddenly smiled brightly, looked up at Kian Sterling, with emotional eyes, "Of course it’s true, only you didn’t disdain me initially and treated me the best."

Kian Sterling heard this, a barely noticeable ripple of emotion flashed in the depths of his eyes, yet his expression remained as gentle as water.

"Luna, I hope what you say is true, otherwise..."

His voice was suppressed and low, yet extremely gentle, carrying an extremely hidden danger.

"Otherwise what?"

She looked up at him with confusion, noticing his expression seemed a bit off, as if he was suppressing something, suddenly feeling a bit tense.

As soon as the words fell, Kian Sterling suddenly grabbed her nape with his hand, causing the pupils within his eyes to churn with a purple gold vortex, "Luna, why has your heartbeat quickened by two beats, what are you nervous about?"

His nine fox tails tightened suddenly, with his beautiful fox eyes fixed intently on her, his voice still as gentle as ever, "Do you know how Nine-Tailed Foxes detect lies?"

Luna Sutton’s breath hitched, heart racing and maintaining a calm facade.

She blinked, pretending to be innocent, "Oh? How do Nine-Tailed Foxes detect lies?"

Kian Sterling smirked slightly, his gaze deep, "Liars have a quicker heartbeat, and their blood flow changes. And you..."

His fingertips lightly brushed her neck, "Your heartbeat quickened by two beats, and your blood flow is unusual."

She tried hard to control her irregular heartbeat, silently cursing this old fox for being too cunning, yet her face blossomed into a bright smile: "That’s because you’re too close, I’m getting nervous."

Kian Sterling stared at her seriously for a while, then suddenly chuckled, the fox tail slightly unwinding: "Nervous? It seems you still have feelings for me."

She looked at him, her beautiful eyes, like peach blossoms, seemingly filled with emotion: "Of course I have feelings, you’re my favorite beast husband."

By the hot spring pool under the tree, the expressions on Corbin Crowley and Rhys Blackwood were extremely unpleasant, even sullen.

But they both kept a cold face and didn’t erupt, because what Luna Sutton said wasn’t wrong.

She was once ugly, fat, and stupid, and not hygienic, to the point of being disgustingly sloppy.

The entire tribe, young and old, avoided her like the plague, it could be said that even beasts would disdain her.

They naturally despised her too, and had said a lot of excessive things, and done a lot of excessive deeds.

Thinking back now, they regretted it immensely.

Zeke Veridian and Malachi Arcanus stood in place, silently saying nothing, not sure what they were thinking.

Kian Sterling, however, was very happy, his smile deepening: "Luna, your words have melted my heart."

"Ding! Congratulations to the host, Kian Sterling’s favorability has increased by 15 points, currently reaching 75, entering the ’like’ stage. The reward of house construction blueprints has been automatically transferred to the system backpack, please check later."

Upon hearing the prompt in her mind, Luna Sutton couldn’t be more delighted.

Kian Sterling’s increased favorability, does this mean he already believes what she said?

The old fox, although cunning and difficult, is not completely invincible.

A favorability of 75 is not low, considered as gaining Kian Sterling’s initial trust. In the future, she just needs to find an opportunity to let him voluntarily reveal his background mystery.

Then this task can be considered complete.

Before she could continue to be happy.

Rhys Blackwood suddenly blurted out: "Luna, be careful not to fall for this fox’s trick, he deliberately fattened you up with bad intentions."

Luna Sutton was shocked, instinctively glancing at Kian Sterling to see his reaction.

Kian Sterling still smiled gently, as if Rhys Blackwood hadn’t been talking about him.

He gently pinched her cheek, his gentle tone tinged with a slightly imperceptible indulgence: "Luna, don’t listen to his nonsense, why would I deliberately fatten you up? They didn’t give you meat at the time, if I didn’t give you any, wouldn’t you be starving?"

Luna Sutton knew that the old fox was telling the truth, but there was also a chance he enjoyed fattening up the original host.

She was too lazy to argue, at least Kian Sterling was willing to provide for her, she didn’t starve.

It was much better than Rhys Blackwood, Zeke Veridian, and Malachi Arcanus who would toss meat on the ground like they were dismissing a beggar.

Corbin Crowley was even more outrageous, not even willing to give alms, his disdain practically written on his face, obviously wanting to starve the original host.

Even when she sat on his back in the beginning, he was extremely disgusted, as if he wanted to puke.

Even if he’s nice to her now, it can still be felt that Corbin Crowley truly likes her.

But the things he did back then are like a thorn deeply stuck in her heart, making her extremely uncomfortable whenever she recalls it.

As she was thinking, Kian Sterling’s Nine-Tails twitched, suddenly taking her from the tree canopy to land on the ground.

Luna Sutton snapped back to reality, turned around, and met Corbin Crowley’s complex, deep silver eyes, filled as if with thousands of words.

Yet he didn’t know how to begin.

His gaze on her made her uncomfortable all over, sparking inner suspicion: why is this guy’s gaze so complex? Could he be feeling guilty about what he did in the past?

She was just about to speak.

When Corbin Crowley suddenly stepped in front of her, raised his hand to gently stroke her face, looking remorseful: "Luna, I was wrong before, I didn’t see the good in you, and did many excessive things. Can you forgive me?"

She raised an eyebrow and looked at him, her expression surprised.

Did this guy take the wrong medicine today? He’s actually admitting his mistakes on his own? It’s like the sun rising in the west.

Rhys Blackwood, Kian Sterling, Zeke Veridian, and Malachi Arcanus all looked at him with surprised expressions.

Corbin Crowley was domineering and proud, getting him to apologize on his own volition wasn’t easy, even if he was wrong, he wouldn’t apologize easily.

Luna Sutton was about to say something, but Kian Sterling’s fox tail curled her away: "Luna, apologies are worthless. Just think, if you kill someone, then apologize afterwards, does it help?"
