"This—"
When they clearly saw the name "Hua Xi" on the green plaque, surprise flashed in the eyes of the remaining Beast Husbands. In an instant, three sharp, dagger-like glares shot toward him.
Even Ye Kuo couldn't help but secretly give Hua Xi a thumbs-up. 'What an actor!'
Jiang Xinli stared at Hua Xi, who had been crestfallen and disappointed one moment and filled with surprised excitement the next, and she, too, was stunned.
His ability to change expressions in a split second was masterfully, almost frighteningly, perfect.
"My dear brothers, the Female Master is mine tonight. My apologies~" Hua Xi declared, head high and chest out. Then, in an instant, the proud Peacock transformed into a cuddly puppy.
He strode over to Jiang Xinli, took one of her hands, and swayed it gently. "Sister, let me take you back to your room to rest, alright?"
Xuan Ying scoffed. "Going to sleep this early? Are you a pig?"
That was a little harsh.
