Marrying the Soft-hearted Villain
chapter-28

Ruan Qiuqiu looked at the big gray wolf that was laying in front of the open doorway to the bedroom and almost completely blocking the cold wind from coming in with his body. While enduring the intermittent pangs, she also worried about Mr. Gray Wolf’s injuries and his mood. Was he depressed? Why were his ears laying flat?

It was truly a bit difficult to multitask.

Because Mr. Gray Wolf was blocking the open doorway, less of the cold wind came into the bedroom. The special firewood in the stone stove was also burning merrier than before. Soon, the bedroom was warmed up.

Ruan Qiuqiu also quickly noticed that the stone bed was warmer than the stone walls.

Perhaps, the stone this bed was made from was also special like the firewood.

Ruan Qiuqiu was excited by this discovery. If this was true, she and Mr. Gray Wolf might survive this winter.

She could change the animal skins she had brought over into four sets of clothing. The softer scraps could be used to bandage Mr. Food Reserve’s injuries and the harder ones could be used as towels or to wrap around their feet as shoes.

Once the weather was better, she would go trade the salt for herbs and food. Several pieces of salt should be enough to trade for food, right?

Once the hunting and gathering was settled, their life should get better and better.

As those thoughts quickly passed through her mind, Ruan Qiuqiu wrapped the large, half-black animal skin tighter around herself. Her complexion had improved and looked rosier. She raised her head to look at the large wolf that was laying in front of the open doorway. His eyes weren’t focused.

It occurred to her that although she had been calling the wolf “husband”, he didn’t know her name yet.

Ruan Qiuqiu rubbed the stone bed that was already a bit warm. Although she knew that he probably couldn’t see her, she still straightened her posture and looked at his beautiful glimmering blue eyes that were illuminated by the hazy fire light.

She slowly said, “Umm… Husband… I have something to tell you…”

Mr. Gray Wolf, who was about to lose consciousness: “?”

What? Had she decided that she would leave as soon as the blizzard ended?

If that was the case, although it was within his expectations and what he had planned for her, he strangely didn’t want to hear her say it.

He didn’t know why he was feeling this way. Perhaps, he was being sappy because of his injuries.

Yuan Jue’s stomach started to cramp, and his eyelids got heavier and heavier. He slowly narrowed his eyes and let out a low “aowu” sound from his throat to signal for her to quickly speak while he was still touched by her efforts in helping him treat his injuries.

If she waited until later, he might change his mind and she would lose her chance to speak.

Ruan Qiuqiu had no idea that the rumored twisted gray wolf demon she had married was different from the other wolves in that he was actually a sensitive wolf cub at heart. She could only see Mr. Food Reserve’s reaction after hearing her words.

He had slowly lifted his ears, which had been lying down, and then he had suddenly looked very resigned. His ears drooped back down.

Ruan Qiuqiu: “…” Were his injuries hurting too much and he needed to rest soon?

Thus, she didn’t waste time. She very solemnly said, “I don’t know if the wolf demons from your tribe already told you my name. My name is Ruan Qiuqiu…”

“You can call me Ruan Qiuqiu… or Qiuqiu… or….”

As Ruan Qiuqiu spoke, she eventually felt too awkward.

In the past, she had thought nothing of it when she offered to let someone call her by her first name, but today, it felt hard to say those words.

In addition, she had originally wanted to say Mr. Gray Wolf could also address her as wife. But for some reason, it was harder for her to say wife aloud than for her to call that gray wolf “husband”.

Ruan Qiuqiu?

So this human is called Ruan Qiuqiu?

It couldn’t be that this is what she wanted to tell him, right?
