Chapter 443 - 432: Male Slave!

Shen Tang saw Shen Li quietly finish drinking the medicine and advised, "This morning’s treatment is finished for now. I’ll come back tonight if I have time, you should rest well first."

Saying that, she turned to look at Luo Fei and smiled wryly, "Thank you for helping out today."

"N-no need to thank me, Your Majesty! It’s what I should do! As long as you need me, I’m always here!" Luo Fei was momentarily stunned, then rubbed his neck awkwardly, a flush covering his dark and handsome face.

The two packed up their things and were about to leave.

Shen Li’s fingers twitched slightly, unable to maintain his composure.

He got up, walked over, and without even glancing at Luo Fei, softly asked Shen Tang, "Xiao Tang’er, I want to know, who is he?"

In truth, Shen Li wanted to ask what exactly their relationship was.

But he knew.

He had no right to ask that question.

Shen Tang was momentarily stunned and didn’t react immediately.

Luo Fei’s eyes shone brightly, finally given a chance to declare his ownership, blurted out, "I’m the male slave by Your Majesty’s side!"

He said it with such righteousness, because that was indeed the fact.

——Shen Tang forcefully implanted the slave chip in him, so wasn’t he exactly her slave!

With those words, the air went strangely silent for a moment.

Shen Li’s expression darkened, his body stiffened, and a dangerous glint flickered in his gaze towards Luo Fei.

When Shen Tang realized the outrageous words this wild boar had uttered, she coughed heavily several times, fortunately not drinking any water!

"Don’t spout nonsense here!" Shen Tang slapped his back, her face flushed with anxiety, "I just said you’d be my subordinate, help me for three years, then you’d be free. I never said you’d be my... that!"

"You put a slave chip in me, so I’m your slave, what’s the difference from being a subordinate." Luo Fei muttered aggrievedly, clearly having already embraced the role.

"..." A male slave can indeed be called a male slave, but those two words also have another layer of meaning that shouldn’t be misunderstood!

Shen Tang rubbed her brow speechlessly, scolding lightly, "Alright, stop saying nonsense, hurry and get to work!"

Luo Fei cheerfully responded, "Sure thing, Your Majesty, any other work you have, just let me know, I can do it all for you!."

"Next time you speak nonsense again, don’t bother coming over."

The female’s cheeks were still a bit flushed, as if a secret had been pierced.

Shen Li watched their interaction, his expression becoming more and more somber, fingers clenching at his side, knuckles turning white. The oppressive emotion in his chest grew stronger, making it difficult for him to breathe.

She was enthusiastic towards other males, without any reservations, even showing a hint of shyness, but towards him, she was indifferent and distant as if a stranger.

He could see that she truly treated him differently now than before.

The current Shen Tang would show a trace of anger or other emotions because of him, but that was merely the normal emotions of a person. He could no longer see any deep affection from before, no shock waves of love or hate.

It seemed, since that night after leaving Zhuoxiang Hall, she had changed.

Things had eased last night, but after he said those words, the ripple between them that had just stirred subsided into a dead calm, as if it never existed.

Broken mirrors are difficult to mend.

"Buzz——"

The Light Computer on Shen Tang’s wrist buzzed, she glanced at it, then turned to Luo Fei, "I have something to attend to, I’ll head out for a while, stay home and take good care of the patient for me."

Luo Fei looked at her, then cast a glance at the sullen Shen Li, feeling a bit reluctant in his heart, but having already committed, he could only obediently reply, "As you command, Your Majesty."

As soon as Shen Tang left, the atmosphere in the room instantly changed.

The two large males stared at each other, the air filled with unspeakable silence.

Tension in the air, the smell of gunpowder rising.

Luo Fei’s respectful expression vanished; he casually pulled out a chair, sat down, crossed his legs like a lord, his tall and mighty figure exuding a sense of oppression.

He glared at Shen Li, his dark and handsome face pulling into a challenging sneer, "I warn you, you fox spirit from who knows where, I’ve been following Her Majesty for a long time, much earlier than you!"

"..."

Luo Fei, like a wolf declaring its territory, spoke with determination, "I’m already pursuing Her Majesty; she is destined to be mine! Once you recover, hurry up and get lost, don’t covet what’s not yours!"

Shen Li silently watched him, his slender and beautiful eyes holding a stormy darkness that made Luo Fei feel a faint sense of instinctual fear and pressure, causing the hairs on his body to stand up!

Luo Fei’s expression turned odd; was it a joke, he was a powerful Ninth Rank Beastman! He hadn’t been afraid of many people in his life!

This weak-looking sickly fox, how could he possibly be his opponent?

Just as he wondered what this fox wanted, he heard him simply ask,

"Does she like you?"

Luo Fei was quite confident, "Of course she likes me!"

He raised his chin, flaunting his body like a bodybuilding champion, flexing his rock-hard muscles, "With my tall and mighty build, handsome face, what female wouldn’t like me!"

The more he spoke, the more confident he became, "If she didn’t like me, would she have spared my life back then? Would she have allowed me to stay by her side? Her Majesty is merely shy; I’m sure it won’t be long before I become her man!"

The air grew increasingly silent, carrying the dangerous threat of an impending storm.

Luo Fei, unaware, still discontentedly looked at the expressionless Shen Li, coldly questioning, "And what are you? Do you even have the right to question me!"

Shen Li’s clenched fingers suddenly relaxed.

He closed his eyes, unable to answer.

A moment later, his voice carried a faintly powerless hoarseness, "...she won’t like you."

Luo Fei had been somewhat unsure, as after all, fox spirits were seductive, and Shen Li’s appearance was indeed enchantingly beautiful. To be honest, if the other party were female, he wouldn’t be able to resist falling for her!

But now, it seemed this fox didn’t have any confidence, evidently, Her Majesty hadn’t taken a liking to him at all.

At this point, Luo Fei stopped pretending, scoffing, "Her Majesty wouldn’t like me? Hah, who are you to say such things? Aren’t you just a sickly person picked up and brought back? Acting all high and mighty, questioning me like the rightful partner?"

Hell, it was infuriating!

As Luo Fei observed the man’s increasingly grim expression, he confidently raised an eyebrow, feeling even more like the other was a defeated adversary, "I suggest you either hurry up and leave, or start pleasing me now, maybe at my wedding banquet with Her Majesty, I’ll kindly invite you over for a glass of celebratory wine!"

With that, Luo Fei was already envisioning the arrival of that day, a look of intoxication in his eyes, "It won’t be long, no, just three days at most, I’ll win Her Majesty over! Tonight I’ll—ah!"

Before he could finish, a scream resounded.

His crotch suddenly caught on fire!

"Damn it, where did this fire come from?!"

Luo Fei, face contorted in pain, cursed as he ran outside to roll on the ground, but this fire was oddly persistent, unable to be extinguished.

Shen Li sat in the chair, propping his face with one hand, quietly watching him scream in embarrassment, blowing out a wisp of fox fire from his fingertip, darkly turbulent eyes.

In the end, Luo Fei dashed to the nearby river, dove in headfirst, barely saving his manhood.

His precious treasure, if he had delayed any longer, would have been charred.

His lifetime of happiness was almost over!
