Chapter 390: Chapter 390: Rehearsed 1,000 Times in Memory

Chou Rong grasped her hand, stopping whatever she was about to say.

Her clothes were stripped off and tossed aside.

His scorching body was like a blazing sun, warming her through and through.

He was the first male she had been with, but that night had been too tense and rushed.

Plus, they hadn’t seen each other in over a year.

Her mind could clearly remember everything that had happened with him, yet the physical sensations felt foreign.

When his lightly calloused hand touched her soft skin, Bai Wanwan couldn’t help but tremble slightly.

Chou Rong’s gaze, in turn, visibly darkened.

The scene that had replayed in his mind every day for the past year was now truly happening.

As if he had rehearsed it a thousand times, he skillfully embraced her.

The exquisite sensation made the male arch his neck.

Veins bulged, a savage sight.

Bai Wanwan’s heart was tossed about like a small boat in a storm.

Later, she grew so tired she didn’t want to move, but the male wasn’t ready to let her go.

Bai Wanwan’s eyes were half-closed as she hugged his firm waist and wheedled.

"I’m so tired. Can you let me sleep for a little while?"

The male, his eyes bloodshot, held her tighter.

"No, Bai Wanwan. This is what you owe me."

When a man who had been celibate for ages finally broke his fast, Bai Wanwan was nearly driven to death’s door.

Eventually, her tears dried on her face, and her throat was too hoarse to make a sound.

Her consciousness began to fade.

In the darkness, Chou Rong held the soft, supple female in his arms, his gaze falling on her brow, which was slightly furrowed even in sleep.

He raised his hand, trying to smooth it away.

But the moment he moved, the female whimpered in discomfort.

The male’s eyes instantly darkened again.

In truth, he hadn’t had his fill, but he couldn’t stand her crying and had finally decided to let her be.

Throwing back the covers, Chou Rong got up and strode out the door.

Bai Wanwan was so exhausted that she fell into a deep sleep.

When she woke up, she found she couldn’t even lift her legs, so she quickly redeemed a Recovery Pill and swallowed it.

Only then did she feel as if she had been reborn.

Once the heavy, sluggish feeling in her limbs faded, she gave a comfortable stretch.

But as she got up, she remembered that she had come looking for Chou Rong to discuss something.

After he had his way with her, she’d completely forgotten about it.

She hurried out the door.

Outside, Zhu Xiu and Yan Lie were talking to the young cubs.

"Wanwan... you’re awake."

Yan Lie strode over, his eyes immediately landing on the marks her clothes couldn’t hide.

He drew closer and huffed softly. "I can’t even bear to leave marks on you anymore, but he clearly doesn’t know his own strength."

Bai Wanwan smiled and took his hand. "I’ll remind him next time. By the way, where’s Chou Rong?"

Zhu Xiu, who was sitting on a stone bench, looked up at her. "You were with him all night, and you’re already looking for him the moment you wake up?"

His voice sounded calm, but she could clearly sense the turbulent emotions churning just beneath the surface.

She was certain that if she gave him an affirmative answer, Zhu Xiu would likely bite right through her neck.

She immediately walked to his side with a smile, wrapped her arms around his neck, and whispered, "You’ve misunderstood. I’m looking for him because I’m worried about the cubs."

Yan Lie walked over too. "If you’re worried about the cubs, why look for him? Is asking us any different?"

"How could it be the same?" Bai Wanwan shot him a look. "Have you forgotten that we were attacked by Eagle Beasts?"

At the mention of the Eagle Beasts, Yan Lie’s hatred was bone-deep. "If we get the chance, we have to wipe them out."

By now, Zhu Xiu had already guessed her intention. "You want to ask Chou Rong to send people to meet Jin Yi and the others?"

Bai Wanwan nodded vigorously. "Yes. I’m worried. If they get attacked, even though Jin Yi and Yin Ze both have Orange Rank Talent Power, they have to protect so many cubs. The slightest oversight..."

Bai Wanwan didn’t dare to imagine the consequences, which were something she couldn’t bear.

"Alright. We’re short-handed. Let’s have Chou Rong send people to meet them."

Zhu Xiu stood and took Bai Wanwan’s hand. "I’ll go with you to find him."

So, Zhu Xiu and Yan Lie, with the young cubs in tow, accompanied Bai Wanwan toward the council hall of the Tiger Clan’s Clan Leader.

Chou Rong had told her before that if she needed him, she could find him there.

They had to cross nearly half the tribe before finally reaching their destination.

Before they even entered, they heard Chou Rong’s voice from inside. "Fine. In five days, I will formally succeed as Clan Leader. Any Orange Rank male in the tribe who wishes to challenge me can do so on that day."

"But... that’s too risky, Young Clan Leader. What if something unexpected happens?"

"It’s nothing. Just do as I say."

As soon as Chou Rong finished speaking, his gaze swept to the entrance, and he spotted Bai Wanwan.

"What brings you here?"

Seeing that they had finished their discussion, Bai Wanwan stepped inside.

Zhu Xiu and Yan Lie followed with the cubs.

Seeing their Father Beast, the cubs began to run and play excitedly around Chou Rong’s feet.

"Last night, I told you I had something to discuss, but you didn’t let me finish."

Chou Rong’s gaze swept past her to Zhu Xiu and Yan Lie, then he said to Bai Wanwan, "Come inside with me."

Yan Lie immediately moved to follow, but Chou Rong stopped him. "You don’t need to come."

Zhu Xiu had already discerned Chou Rong’s intentions. He sat down on a stone bench, his gaze cold, showing no sign of following.

After Chou Rong led Bai Wanwan into an inner stone room, Yan Lie walked over to Zhu Xiu and said urgently, "He took Wanwan in there alone. Aren’t you worried?"

"Worried about what?" Zhu Xiu glanced up at him. "They were alone together all last night."

Yan Lie was speechless. He found himself desperately missing their time in the Black Dog Tribe, back when Wanwan only had the three of them as her Beast Husbands, and Zhu Xiu was away for long periods.

He could be with Wanwan all the time back then.

But now, Wanwan had more and more Beast Husbands, and he couldn’t win the competition for her attention.

Bai Wanwan followed Chou Rong into the stone room. Only after shutting the door did he turn and ask, "What was so urgent? Couldn’t it have waited for me to come back?"

Bai Wanwan shot him a glare. "I was going to tell you last night, but *you* just had to interrupt me."

Her expression was so vivid. Chou Rong watched her, and thinking about the previous night, he felt a surge of pleasure. He nodded. "Mm, my fault. Go on."

Seeing him relent, Bai Wanwan immediately walked over and hugged his arm. "I’m worried about the cubs. You know I was attacked by the Eagle Beasts and fell into the river. If Yin Ze hadn’t rescued me, I probably wouldn’t have had the chance to come here and see you."

"Mm. When I find the time, I will wipe out the Eagle Beast clan."

"That’s not the urgent part. I’m worried Jin Yi and the others will run into danger on their way here with the cubs. Can you order some males to go with me to meet them?"

"Fine. But you are not to leave the tribe. I’ll have Beastmen go and get them."

Hearing his definitive answer, Bai Wanwan happily stood on her tiptoes and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

Chou Rong looked down at her. "That’s not enough."

Bai Wanwan froze. "What’s not enough? Didn’t you get enough last night?"

’If she hadn’t taken a Recovery Pill, she’d still be lying in bed, unable to get up!’
