Me and My Cold CEO Wife

Chapter 2079 - 2068: Staying for Now

"Cough... cough..."With a dry cough to draw everyone's attention back, Ning Fan continued to ask, "I remember you had silver fur before, what's happened now?"

"I've cultivated to the level of two tails, and the color of my fur has changed."

At this, Su Meiniang anxiously said, "Husband, do you not like my current appearance and find me ugly? But when the Jade Fox clan transforms into human form, they become completely snow-white. I... I can't help it."

As she spoke, Su Meiniang shed a few crystal-clear tears.

Ning Fan hurriedly said, "Don't cry. That's not what I meant. You look very beautiful."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true."

"Now I can rest assured."

Su Meiniang smiled through her tears, her smile as if thawing spring rain, reviving all things.

"So when you were a Silver Fox, you couldn't transform into human form."

Su Meiniang said wistfully, "Had I been able to transform into human form, I would have met with you long ago."

Ning Fan said loudly, "So you only came here to find me after you could transform into human form?"

"Yes, husband."

When Su Meiniang finished speaking, Ning Fan felt the persistent gaze that had been fixated on him finally vanish.

"Su Meiniang, how did you find this place?"

"When husband gifted the Spiritual Medicine, I remembered your scent and followed it all the way here."

"So that's what you meant by scent just now."

Saying this, Ning Fan looked proudly at the two sisters, showcasing a sense of exoneration.

Xu Ruolan pretended not to notice, exclaiming, "You could track scent from Mount Hua to Zhonghai?"

"Sis, don't forget. She's not an ordinary person."

"Right, right."

Xu Ruolan looked at Su Meiniang with a complex expression, saying, "But why do you call him husband?"

Su Meiniang said confidently, "He is my husband!"

Xu Ruolan persistently asked, "Do you understand what husband means?"

"I do. I want to be with my husband, together forever."

"Seems you understand all of this."

Initially, upon meeting Su Meiniang, Xu Ruolan had noticed her lack of worldly experience, appearing mentally unconventional, which is why she kept her in the house.

But after witnessing the recent scene, Xu Ruolan understood completely.

Su Meiniang wasn't ignorant; she was just unfamiliar with modern society, but she grasped the necessary things without missing any.

"But Ning Fan already has a wife, and that's me."

Xu Ruolan gently reminded her, hoping Su Meiniang would retreat from the difficulty.

"I know. I heard elder sister mention it earlier."

Saying this, Su Meiniang suddenly bowed, smiling warmly, "I greet elder sister; younger sister will definitely serve elder sister and husband well from now on."

This sudden scene left everyone shocked.

Especially Xu Ruolan, who was at a loss.

At this moment, Xu Xiaoqing exclaimed, "Sis, I understand now."

"What do you understand?"

Xu Xiaoqing said mysteriously, "Su Meiniang wants to become a concubine, recognizing you as the first wife of the prime household."

"This... don't say such nonsense here."

"That's exactly what I have in mind. I don't seek titles, just being able to be beside my husband is enough."

After a moment of silence, Xu Ruolan suddenly said, "Are you doing this to repay a favor?"

"Yes. I have today thanks to husband's earlier gift of medicine."

Su Meiniang shyly said, "Husband's favor in recreating me is as vast as the heavens, my life is pledged to him, and I shall repay him even in the afterlife."

"So cheesy... I'm getting goosebumps. Didn't expect to hear such words in real life."

Xu Xiaoqing hugged her arms, making a humorous gesture, but no one paid her any mind.

Ning Fan, who had been comprehending things internally, could finally speak,

"Miss Su, you don't need to do this. I don't require your repayment."

Silence was essential.

In this situation, timing in speaking had to be precise, otherwise, speaking too much or too little would all be wrong.

Upon hearing this, Su Meiniang was stunned, then she burst into tears saying, "Does husband disdain me for not being human?"

Amidst such an extraordinary beauty, every movement tugged at one's heartstrings.

Ning Fan quickly said, "I never meant to disdain you."

Su Meiniang implored tearfully, "Husband, I only wish to serve honorably, without any other improper desires."

"But I already have a wife."

Ning Fan added, "Besides, when I gifted the medicine, I never expected you to repay me."

"Though I am of beast form, I understand human morality."

Su Meiniang continued, "Husband's favor is as high as the sky; even if I cultivate into a human, if I can't comprehend morality and repay kindness, I'd better revert to a wild beast in the mountains, living ignorantly."

"This..."

Ning Fan looked to Xu Ruolan for help, as Su Meiniang seemed determined to repay kindness.

What could Xu Ruolan do? Since Su Meiniang's arrival, this matter had been bothering her.

Though the truth was revealed and her mental burden was lifted, Xu Ruolan had gained some understanding of Su Meiniang through their time together.

Despite her seemingly delicate appearance, once she's set on something, she's absolutely unwavering.

Back then, Xu Ruolan had tried persuading tirelessly, but Su Meiniang wouldn't listen, even stood at the door for an entire day without moving an inch.

If Xu Ruolan hadn't felt bad about it, Su Meiniang might have remained standing until Ning Fan returned.

"Su Meiniang, why don't you stand up to speak?"

It was then that Xu Ruolan discovered Su Meiniang had been kneeling by Ning Fan's feet.

Su Meiniang obediently rose, smiling sweetly, "Sister, you can just call me Meier."

"Meier, you see Ning Fan just returned, let's talk about this later. Alright?"

At this point, Xu Ruolan could only try to calm Su Meiniang, given her temperament, saying harsh words was difficult, let alone driving her out.

Furthermore, given the current situation, Su Meiniang was nothing but a silly fox intending to repay kindness.

Though she understood the human moral system, she was completely clueless about matters of affection.

Ning Fan's gratitude was all she felt, not love at all.

Facing an unlikely rival, Xu Ruolan was also at a loss, a peculiar thought popping into her mind.

"No wonder such things always appear in script interpretations. Could it be that pledging oneself is a traditional virtue among fairies?"

Xu Ruolan shook her head, then gently said, "Meier, you can stay here for now."

Su Meiniang thanked sincerely, saying, "Thank you, sister. I will definitely serve sister well."

At this moment, Xu Xiaoqing suddenly asked, "Su Meiniang, where did your name come from? It sounds somewhat familiar."

"I borrowed from the TV... TV..."

Xu Xiaoqing hesitantly said, "Series?"

"Yes. The Jade Fox clan's surname is Su; I saw the story about the White Snake repaying kindness, so I named myself Meiniang."
