Fast Travel: After turning into an animal, the villain asked me to be his wife

Chapter 840: Villain Immortal Son-in-law X Unable to Transform into a Demonic Little Fox 40

Xie Linyuan's current condition is definitely not good, but even though he has just woken up, the wariness in his eyes has not diminished at all when facing strangers he has no recollection of.

Yu Zhen was stunned, and only then did she belatedly realize that her current image was no longer that of a fluffy little fox.

She frowned, frantically trying to figure out how to explain, and stammered, "Um, have I really changed that much? You didn't recognize me at all?"

Thinking of that pill, Yu Zhen had a flash of inspiration and immediately felt justified.

She glared at Xie Linyuan, who was in a weak state, and said, "Have you forgotten the pill that Wen Xuandu gave me? Although the effect was a bit slow, it was still quite good."

After saying that, she tidied her long hair that was still hanging loose behind her head and hadn't had time to fix it: "...I haven't even seen what I look like yet."

Xie Linyuan's vigilance only lasted for the very first moment after he woke up.

When he saw those familiar eyes, he had some doubts, but when she started to ramble on, that sense of familiarity turned into a flash of inspiration, instantly confirming where the soul of the person in front of him came from.

However… Xie Linyuan’s eyes brightened slightly as his gaze moved down from her face.

His face was somewhat youthful, but his eyes held the same innocence and tension as always, as if his injury was something deeply distressing.

Xie Linyuan coughed lightly, but saw that her eyes were becoming increasingly worried.

"Little fox?" His voice was a little hoarse, but his gaze towards her was inexplicably profound.

Yu Zhen didn't think much of it. Seeing that Xie Linyuan had called out her name, she immediately nodded happily: "Yes, yes! It's me!"

Once she started talking, she began to chatter on and on: "You have no idea how difficult it is for me to feed you medicine. The fox's paws are too small, and the pills are round and smooth."

"Fortunately, I can transform into human form now!"

After saying that, she very familiarly handed the jade bottle she was still tightly clutching to Xie Linyuan: "There's still some in here. How are you feeling now? Do you want to eat more?"

Xie Linyuan didn't answer. Instead, he looked at her with a gaze that was both familiar and unfamiliar to Yu Zhen, and asked her, "Why aren't you leaving?"

He was unusually moved by compassion and let Wen Xuandu go, allowing him to take the little thing with him...

And this little fox's affection for Wen Xuandu didn't seem fake.

"Why should I go with him?" Yu Zhen retorted. "I don't even know him."

Xie Linyuan chuckled: "You seem to have a lot of confidence in him and have always wanted to stop the fight between me and him. But compared to following a demon that the world hates, following Wen Xuandu is obviously the best choice."

“You’re not a demon,” Yu Zhen said cautiously, looking at him. “...You haven’t done anything wrong, maybe your methods were just a little too extreme?”

Xie Linyuan raised an eyebrow: "You think I'm going too far?"

Yu Zhen changed the subject: "Ahem, you still haven't said whether you want to continue taking your medicine or not."

She carefully observed Xie Linyuan's current expression. Although he still looked quite disheveled, since waking up, the aura of a person in a high position had reappeared, giving off a great deal of pressure.

Xie Linyuan glanced at her and uttered a single, indifferent word: "Eat."

His gaze sent a chill down Yu Zhen's spine; it was as if he meant to eat fox meat, not pills.

"Then, then you eat it yourself?" Yu Zhen tried to hand over the jade bottle again.

But Xie Linyuan lifted his eyelids, raised his wrist, and looked directly at her: "I have no strength."

Yu Zhen: "Then... shall I feed you?"

Xie Linyuan didn't speak, but his silence was a tacit agreement.

Although something felt off, since Xie Linyuan had asked for it, it was just a matter of feeding him medicine.

Without any psychological burden, she poured one out of the jade bottle, picked it up, and put it into Xie Linyuan's mouth.

Xie Linyuan stared directly at her. When the pill was placed against his lips, he paused for a moment before slightly opening his lips and biting down on the two fingers holding the pill.

The strange sensation in her fingers made Yu Zhen freeze.

She tried to pull her finger back in a panic, but the man bit it.

Yu Zhen: "What are you doing? This is my finger, not medicine."

Xie Linyuan only relented when he saw her expression change.

Yu Zhen quickly pulled her fingers back and put them behind her back.

He bit down hard, but it didn't hurt much; it just felt a slight pressure.

But the dampness on her fingertips reminded her of some unhealthy things.

Xie Linyuan looked at her without changing his expression: "It tastes good."

If Yu Zhen still can't realize this person is deliberately teasing her, then she's not Yu Zhen.

"Is it fun to tease me?!" Yu Zhen threw the bottle directly into Xie Linyuan's arms. "Eat it yourself!"

Xie Linyuan repeated his previous statement: "I can't move."

Yu Zhen: "You were able to move your mouth quite well just now, but now you're saying you can't! I don't believe you!"

Xie Linyuan maintained the same expression: "I'm not lying to you."

His clothes were still wet, his long hair was always damp, and his clothes clung tightly to his body. Because of his habit of not liking to dress properly, his clothes were wide open at this moment.

Something seems off.

Even if Xie Linyuan is carefree and unconventional, he wouldn't like being a water ghost, would he?

He's in such pain and he hasn't cleaned himself up yet. Is it possible that his current condition is not enough to support him in using even a little bit of spiritual power?

Thinking of this, Yu Zhen immediately became bolder.

She looked Xie Linyuan up and down, now in a weakened state, and asked, "You really can't move?"

Xie Linyuan lowered his eyes, refusing to look at her.

His silence and lowered head, combined with his current demeanor, were almost unfair.

It was as if she had bullied me.

Yu Zhen mustered up her courage and reached out to touch his shoulder.

It was hard and cold; the lake water was absolutely freezing.

Xie Linyuan showed no reaction, only glancing at her indifferently.

Seeing this, Yu Zhen became even bolder.

Her hand tentatively reached out and touched Xie Linyuan's open collar.

Before she even landed, she saw Xie Linyuan looking at her with a half-smile: "What? You like it?"

Yu Zhen casually shifted her attention and patted his arm: "Who doesn't like a good body? But since you seem to have never been touched before, I won't take advantage of you."

That damn Xie Linyuan, even at a time like this he still loves to be so ruthless with his words.

It's just being sarcastic and sarcastic; she can do that too.

Unexpectedly, Xie Linyuan's eyes darkened: "Who else did you take advantage of?"

Although she really wanted to say, "There are plenty of options," the little fox, who had already learned to seek advantage and avoid harm while invisible, immediately stammered, "You...you think I'm like you? I only recently took human form, how could I possibly take advantage of someone?"

Yu Zhen's gaze fell on his chest: "...I misspoke. I think you're the one who's good at taking advantage of others."

Xie Linyuan fell silent this time.

After a long while, he finally let out a soft sigh.
