Chapter 366: I Am Not Her Beast Husband

Chapter 366: Chapter 366: I Am Not Her Beast Husband

Bai Wanwan actually had no memories of being intimate with these Beast Husbands.

At this moment, she was a stranger to it all.

But the thought that he was her own husband brought her some comfort. ’I already have several cubs, so what’s there to be afraid of?’ she told herself.

Just as she threw caution to the wind and prepared to tumble in the sheets with him,

Chou Rong actually grabbed her by the waist and hips and pulled her away...

The recent intimacy had made her limbs go weak. Before she could react, he picked her up and placed her on the stone bed.

Bai Wanwan had just started to move when Chou Rong pinned her arm.

He gazed down at her. "Bai Wanwan, once you’ve recovered your memories, we’ll have a proper talk."

"Talk about what?"

She looked at the man before her with suspicion, feeling that his attitude toward her was a bit strange.

"Did something happen between us?"

’Did I fail him, or did he fail me?’

Chou Rong’s expression was complicated, but he didn’t say another word.

Just as Bai Wanwan was about to press her advantage, a voice suddenly echoed in her mind. "My dear host, thank goodness, thank goodness you survived."

The voice that had suddenly appeared in her mind left Bai Wanwan dumbfounded.

’Who’s talking?’

She turned her head and glanced around. Aside from the few cubs squatting obediently not far away, the only other person in the room was Chou Rong.

And Chou Rong had kept his mouth shut ever since he finished speaking; besides, the voice’s timber was obviously different.

"Host, Host, it’s me talking to you."

"Host?" she repeated out loud, subconsciously.

Chou Rong immediately looked at her. "What are you talking about?"

Hua Sheng also took stock of the situation and immediately recognized this male as the one it had originally found for Bai Wanwan.

He was outstanding and perfect in every way.

Unfortunately, the Host didn’t seem to like him. They had even had cubs together, yet they had still separated.

’So what’s the situation now?’

How long had it been locked away? It couldn’t make heads or tails of the current situation either.

Back then, Bai Wanwan had been drowning in a turbulent river, her life hanging by a thread.

It had faced a difficult choice: either abandon Bai Wanwan and bind to a new Host,

or use its own energy to save her.

But if it did that, it would risk shutting down.

The situation was critical, leaving it no time to consider the consequences.

At the last moment, it decided that such a good Host was hard to find. Perhaps she could find more, even stronger, males in the future and earn back more Points.

And so... it used its own energy to save her, protecting her from drowning.

But by the time she was washed ashore by the underground river, it had shut down completely.

"Don’t panic, Host. I disappeared for a while because I was saving you. You can tell me everything that’s happened during this time. Of course, you can just say it in your mind. I can hear you."

In the time the system had been silent, a storm had already raged through Bai Wanwan’s mind.

’So... not only did I transmigrate, but I even got a cheat ability.’

’Is this for real? So overpowered?’

She immediately asked it with glee, ’What kind of system are you? With you, can I basically run wild in the Beast World?’

Hua Sheng was silent for a moment. "You don’t even remember what kind of system I am?"

Bai Wanwan didn’t hide it. ’I don’t just not remember what kind of system you are, I don’t know that I was mated, how many Beast Husbands I have, or how many cubs. I know nothing at all.’

"If you don’t know, you don’t know. Maybe you’ll remember later."

’Wait for me to remember? Aren’t you here? Hurry up and tell me, what kind of system are you? This male in front of me is my Beast Husband, right? Did something happen between us before? Why do I feel like his attitude toward me is so weird?’

At that moment, Chou Rong, who was sitting beside her, also felt that Bai Wanwan’s expression was a little strange.

She hadn’t said a single word, but her eyes were darting back and forth as if she were carrying on a long conversation.

"Ahem, are you sure you want to know what kind of system I am right now?"

’Yes, hurry up and tell me. I’m dying of curiosity.’

It couldn’t hide this anyway. After all, it needed her to keep having children to replenish the energy it had spent saving her.

"I am... the Child-Rearing System."

’Child-Rearing System? What kind of system is that? I get rewards for having cubs, is that it?’

"Yes, that’s the right way to understand it, but... there are restrictions. You have to get pregnant with a cub within a specified time. I just checked the system balance. Host, you’ve already had over ten thousand Points deducted this time."

’What?’

The system patiently explained, "The Child-Rearing System can bring the Host many conveniences, but at the same time, it also constrains you. If you don’t get pregnant with a cub within the specified time, your life will be in danger. Luckily, you had some Points left over from before. Otherwise, you would have already been erased."

Bai Wanwan had originally thought she’d been given the protagonist’s script, that her life was on easy mode.

She never expected it would actually be a sharp blade hanging over her head.

’Can I choose to unbind from you?’

"You may not!"

It had spent so much energy to save this Host; how could it possibly allow an unbinding?

’Really not?’

The system went silent.

’Forget it, we can talk about this later.’

She had lost her memories now and couldn’t judge if the system was telling the truth. However, she could accept the idea that for anything that brought benefits, one had to pay a certain price.

But the price and the reward had to be equal.

’We’ll talk about the system later. First, tell me about my Beast Husbands.’

"Host, I am just a system. I don’t pay much attention to your life when you don’t summon me, so I’m not very clear on what happened between you and your Beast Husbands."

The system’s ambiguous words gave Bai Wanwan the impression that Chou Rong was indeed her Beast Husband.

It was just that the system didn’t know what might have happened between them.

Just as she was in the middle of this long exchange with the system, a hand reached out to her forehead.

She finally snapped back to reality and looked at Chou Rong. "What’s wrong?"

"You were just zoning out."

It was more than just zoning out. Her eyes were lively, not vacant.

Bai Wanwan rolled over and faked a yawn. "Mm, maybe I’m a little tired. I think I’ll take a nap."

Then she pretended to slow her breathing.

A moment later, she sensed Chou Rong get up and leave.

Only then did she, under the system’s guidance, begin to fumble with opening the system panel.

On the other side, after leaving the room, Chou Rong instructed the male who was standing guard and taking care of the cubs, "Protect her and the cubs well. If anything happens, have a Beastman send for me immediately."

"Yes, Young Clan Leader."

Before leaving, Chou Rong looked over at Yin Ze, who was standing at one end of the courtyard.

"You’re an Orange Rank male?"

Yin Ze stared at him. "What are you trying to say?"

"It’s not safe for Bai Wanwan to stay here, but you all must wait until her Beast Husbands find her. So, during this time, you keep an eye out."

"Aren’t you Wanwan’s Beast Husband? Why aren’t you watching over her?"

"I’m not..."

After speaking, Chou Rong turned and left, leaving Yin Ze staring after him in utter astonishment.
