Chapter 54: Trouble Caused by a Beast Skin Skirt

Chapter 54: Chapter 54: Trouble Caused by a Beast Skin Skirt

"Sleep together? Who said that?" Su Luoluo was completely taken aback.

’Who on earth started this rumor? It’s completely absurd!’

’It’s true what they say. Scandalous gossip always spreads the fastest.’

Mo Xuan’s eyelashes fluttered. He looked down and said quietly, "Someone in the tribe saw Nantu bring you a Beast Skin Skirt."

There was something else Mo Xuan left unsaid.

’Her legs looked so sore, and she was walking so unnaturally. What was there to deny?’

’Besides, tonight’s meal was clearly thrown together compared to what she’s been making lately.’

’Wasn’t it because she was tired out from... *that sort of thing*... that she was cutting corners today?’

’I don’t know what’s gotten into Nantu, getting involved with Su Luoluo like that.’

’If the food is this slapdash today, it looks like we won’t be eating well from now on.’

’Even if she does make something good, who knows if we’ll have to give it up for this newcomer.’

’Looks like there’ll be another person at the table.’

’Sigh. There’s already not enough to go around. With one more person, I’ll get even less.’

Thinking about her sleeping with someone, he glanced at Xiao Ye and Fu Feng.

’Speaking of which, haven’t those two slept with Su Luoluo already?’

’How come the food wasn’t this terrible back then?’

’Could it be that their skills... are lacking?’ Mo Xuan wondered, a little perplexed.

Su Luoluo couldn’t believe a single Beast Skin Skirt could cause so much trouble.

She immediately denied it. "When did I ever sleep with him? I asked him to get the Beast Skin Skirt because..."

The words were on the tip of her tongue, but Su Luoluo stopped, finding them too awkward to say.

’I can’t just come out and say that my period started while I was in the hot spring and I got blood on Nantu’s tail, so I had to ask him to grab a Beast Skin Skirt for me, can I?!’

No matter how she phrased it, the whole story was just too embarrassing.

Especially the part about getting her period and staining someone else’s tail with blood.

However, her evasiveness only made the men around her more certain that the rumors were true.

At first, they had been a little skeptical. After all, fetching a Beast Skin Skirt wasn’t a big deal.

Luan Ting often took Su Luoluo’s Beast Skin Skirts to wash them, so that in itself didn’t prove anything.

But Su Luoluo’s hesitation made the situation seem much more suggestive.

’After all, if there was nothing to hide, why wouldn’t she just spit it out instead of trailing off like that?’

As Su Luoluo paused, she felt their gazes turn even more peculiar.

It was as if she’d done something shameful.

Especially Luan Ting—there was a strange look in his eyes.

’No, I really didn’t do anything!’

’If I really had done something, wouldn’t there be marks on my body?’

’The clothes in this Beast World are so skimpy. Wouldn’t any marks be visible at a glance?’

At this thought, Su Luoluo stuck out her arm to prove her innocence. However, she fell silent the moment she looked down at her own dark skin.

She had forgotten—her skin was dark!

’Even if there were some marks on me, you wouldn’t be able to see them on my dark skin.’

Su Luoluo was speechless. She never realized dark skin had such powerful concealing properties.

’No wonder people with dark skin look like their skin is so flawless. The color hides any imperfections, doesn’t it?’

Seeing there was no way to explain this clearly, Su Luoluo glanced from side to side and decided to just throw caution to the wind. "He helped me get a Beast Skin Skirt because I got my period. He just happened to be passing by, so I asked him."

’I’ve laid it all out. They have to believe me now, right?’

She had even revealed something so private.

However, as soon as she said it, the expressions of the four men around her grew even more peculiar.

’Her period?’

’Isn’t that just being in heat?’

’A bloody battle... no wonder she needed two skirts.’

The image popped into Fu Feng’s head, and he inwardly went TSK TSK. ’I never would have thought the cool and detached Nantu could be so wild.’

Then he shook his head. ’Then again... if it were me, I couldn’t handle that.’

’All that blood... it’s so messy!’

After hearing her, Luan Ting’s gaze shifted. He looked like he wanted to say something several times but held his tongue.

After a long moment, he offered a tactful warning, "That’s not very good for a female. You should be more careful next time."

’Lan Ya and Su Luoluo don’t get along, so she probably never told her about these things,’ Luan Ting thought. ’As the eldest, I have a responsibility to give her a reminder.’

Su Luoluo: "..."

’How is it that the more I explain, the less they understand!’

’Forget it. I’ve said my piece. They can believe what they want.’

The stew in the pot had started to GURGLE. Su Luoluo lifted the lid and shot the four men a look. "Anyway, that’s what happened. If you don’t believe me, there’s nothing I can do."

With that, she picked up a piece of cornbread from the side of the pot, dipped it into the broth, and began to eat.

The moment the aroma wafted from the pot, all four men were captivated. They quickly grabbed their bowls, their eyes glued to the stew.

As for their previous conversation, while some doubts remained, they pushed it to the back of their minds.

Nothing was more important than the food right in front of them.

Xiao Ye copied Su Luoluo, dipping his cornbread into the broth to eat. His eyes immediately lit up.

The stew didn’t look as refined as her previous meals, but it was still delicious.

’Looks like I underestimated it.’

The other three had also thought today’s food would be a bit lacking, but they were surprised by how tasty it was.

Lured in by the delicious meal, the four men began to wolf it down.

After dinner, Su Luoluo instructed them, "You all can figure it out amongst yourselves who’s washing the pot and bowls."

Before, they had done a lot for her, so she always washed the dishes herself.

Today, they ate her food without doing anything else, so they naturally had to make up for it in another way. She wasn’t about to spoil them.

The three who were used to working had no objections and stood up to get started.

Luan Ting also reached for the dishes, but Su Luoluo stopped him. "You don’t have to."

Hearing this, the other three were not happy. Mo Xuan glared at Su Luoluo. "Why not! Why doesn’t he have to do anything? You’re playing favorites."

’We all ate together. Why does Luan Ting get to do nothing?’

Fu Feng was also indignant, feeling it was unfair. ’I had to work just to get a spot at the table when I first joined.’

’Luan Ting didn’t do a thing and Su Luoluo invited him to the table. I let it slide because he helped us that other day.’

’But why today?’

Xiao Ye watched Su Luoluo with narrowed eyes. He wasn’t as emotional as the other two, but he also disapproved.

’Su Luoluo is already playing favorites. If something happens in the future, she’ll be even more biased.’

Su Luoluo glared at them. "I’m asking him because I want him to help me make some Beast Skin Skirts. Do any of you know how?"

At her words, the three of them fell silent.

’That’s a female’s job. How would a Beastman know how to do that?’

’Luan Ting seems so masculine. How does he know how to sew clothes like a female?’
