Chapter 121: Chapter 121: Of Course, I Care More About My Own Beast Husband

"Yan Lie?" Xin Feng raised a sharp eyebrow. "Is he a male from the Black Dog Tribe?"

Zhu Xiu wouldn’t just whisk a male away for no reason, and Wanwan seemed very nervous.

In her panic, Bai Wanwan had forgotten that Xin Feng didn’t know Yan Lie at all.

"Do you remember the Beastman who used to bring us prey all the time? That’s him, Yan Lie. He’s the leopard we saved on the road after we escaped from Wandering Beast City."

"It’s him... Speak slowly. What exactly happened?"

Bai Wanwan took a shallow breath to calm herself down and explained everything that had just happened.

"You’re saying Yan Lie was afflicted by the thorn flower poison and tried to force you to mate with him?"

A sharp glint appeared in Xin Feng’s usually gentle eyes.

Bai Wanwan quickly tried to soothe him. "You know how it is. Once you’re affected by that stuff, you lose all reason. You can’t blame him. He’s helped me many times, Xin Feng. I’m worried Zhu Xiu will get angry and hurt him. Please, go help him."

Xin Feng lowered his gaze to look at her, naturally sensing her worry.

"Wanwan, do you like Yan Lie?"

The question caught Bai Wanwan off guard. ’Of course I like him. He’s fresh-faced and handsome, and his smile is as radiant as the sun.’

’But this kind of liking is different from the kind you feel for someone you want to spend a lifetime with.’

’How many times have she and Yan Lie even met?’

’She already has two Beast Husbands. She can’t just take in every decent male she meets. If she did, how many Beast Husbands would she end up with? Never mind Xin Feng and Zhu Xiu being unhappy; she herself wouldn’t be able to handle it.’

"Go on, I want to hear it too."

Just as Bai Wanwan opened her mouth to speak, Zhu Xiu walked in from outside. A pair of eyes glowing with red light stared at her, radiating a heavy, oppressive aura.

Although Xin Feng hadn’t said a single harsh word to her, he was also staring, seemingly waiting for an answer.

’This situation...’ Bai Wanwan felt like a cheating girlfriend who’d just been caught red-handed.

’I’ve been wronged... I really didn’t plan on taking Yan Lie in.’

’It’s just that he’s a living being. It would be a terrible injustice if Zhu Xiu just killed him like that.’

Her gaze swept over her two Beast Husbands, her eyes showing not a trace of guilt or evasion.

"I don’t like him."

She was already blessed with multiple partners. With two such outstanding males as her Beast Husbands, she really should be more considerate of their feelings.

She needed to give them a sufficient sense of security.

After speaking, she walked to Zhu Xiu’s side, hugged his arm, and said in a soft voice, "The only ones I like are you two. Yan Lie is just a friend who helped me, and I was just concerned for him as a friend."

Having said that, she looked up at Zhu Xiu’s expression, realizing he wasn’t actually angry. She continued, "You two are my Beast Husbands. You’re the only ones in my heart. If what just happened made you unhappy, I’ll do my best to avoid him in the future."

Zhu Xiu turned to face her, an emotion flickering in his crimson eyes.

"Are you really willing to avoid other males for our sake?"

Bai Wanwan nodded. "Of course. If there’s anything I do that makes you unhappy, you can tell me directly. If I think you have a point, I won’t deliberately make you miserable."

At this, she turned to look at Xin Feng, only to find him staring intently at her as well.

"Why are you two looking at me like that?"

’The way these two males were staring was kind of creepy.’

Zhu Xiu’s voice sounded by her ear. "He’s fine."

’If that level of injury could kill a Yellow Rank Talent male, then he’s far too weak.’

’As for the thorn flower... a male can grit his teeth and get through it. If he’s unlucky and runs into another female...’

’That would be perfect. It would save him the trouble of harassing Wanwan again!’

Zhu Xiu had no reason to lie to her about something like this.

If he said Yan Lie was fine, then he was probably still alive and well.

Her heart settled, and she smiled. "As long as he’s okay. Let’s not talk about him anymore. How are you feeling today? Are you uncomfortable anywhere?"

Hearing her voice and seeing the focused, concerned look in her eyes as she stared at him, Zhu Xiu’s usually cold expression softened considerably.

"I’m not uncomfortable anywhere."

"You’ve been busy all day. You should go rest."

She attentively helped Zhu Xiu walk inside, inwardly sighing at her own cleverness. Of course, everything she had said was also from the heart.

’No matter how charming Yan Lie is, he’s still an outsider. Of course, her own Beast Husbands are more important.’

’Besides, back in the 21st century, her two Beast Husbands would be considered the cream of the crop.’

And so, the matter was settled. Bai Wanwan didn’t deliberately mention Yan Lie’s name again.

But starting the next day, Zhu Xiu strongly insisted that either he or Xin Feng must stay by her side to protect her.

"Alright, you arrange it."

If the incident with Yan Lie hadn’t happened, she would have truly believed the Black Dog Tribe posed no threat to her.

’But now, if they want to stay, then let them stay.’

Zhu Xiu was heading to the mountains to hunt. Bai Wanwan personally saw him out the door and watched him go for some distance before turning back inside.

Xin Feng picked up a wolf cub that was running all over the room and turned to her. "Shi Hua’s male goes up the mountain every day. From now on, Zhu Xiu and I will take turns bringing him along to hunt. He’ll be responsible for carrying the prey back, and we’ll give him a share."

Mu Feng was a Green Rank Beastman, and his Talent was considered top-tier in the Black Dog Tribe.

But his hunting speed couldn’t compare to a Yellow Rank Male’s.

If they were responsible for the hunting and Mu Feng was responsible for carrying the prey back, their haul for the day wouldn’t be that much less than when he and Zhu Xiu hunted together.

"You two have certainly planned this out well."

In the past, when Bai Wanwan thought about the thirty thousand System Points she had, she wouldn’t have panicked at all.

But now that she had to save up Points, she’d even given up snacks and was trying her best to eat only the wild animals they hunted.

Every Point saved was a Point earned.

"Take the cubs to the doorway to sunbathe."

With the arrival of the warm season, all life was reviving. Waking up every day to the gentle sunlight outside made one feel warm and exceptionally comfortable.

"Okay. I’ll watch the cubs outside the door. Just call me if you need anything."

Bai Wanwan didn’t have anything else to do; she just wanted to plant some potatoes.

Potatoes were delicious no matter how you cooked them, and they were filling. If there was ever a food shortage, this stuff would be a lifesaver.

She took out the potatoes she had hidden under the stove and checked them one by one to see if they had sprouted.

She had put them there a while ago, planning to sow them once they sprouted.

In her past life, she was just an ordinary office worker. She didn’t have many skills, and she certainly didn’t know how to farm.

She had only seen on some social media platform that you could plant sprouted potatoes.

So she wanted to see if she could actually grow them.

She turned them over one by one and, seeing that none had sprouted, felt a little disappointed. She stuffed them back in their original spot.

She clapped the dirt off her hands and stood up.

Shi Hua’s voice came from outside the door. "Wanwan, are you home?"

Bai Wanwan had her arms folded, wondering what delicious thing she should make.

Hearing Shi Hua’s voice, she turned and shouted towards the door, "I’m here! Just come on in."

A moment later, Shi Hua came in carrying a basin. "Wanwan, Mu Feng hunted some Unicorns in the mountains yesterday. I brought some over for you."

As she spoke, she glanced outside, then suddenly leaned in to whisper in Bai Wanwan’s ear.
