Chapter 58: Chapter 58: Su Luoluo’s Husband-Controlling Technique

Su Luoluo’s gaze swept over five different pairs of eyes—emerald green, pale violet, golden-yellow, ice-blue, and azure. A shiver ran down her spine.

’It’s a good thing it’s daytime,’ she thought. ’If it were night and these five were just staring at me eerily like this, it would be enough to scare someone to death. All these different colored eyes, each with its own glow, would be terrifying in the dark.’

To be honest, she hadn’t expected all five of them to be willing to carry her.

Especially Nantu, who had just joined them today.

’Doesn’t he usually find the very sight of me disgusting?’

’What’s gotten into him today that he’d actually offer me his back?’

But regardless of his motives, Su Luoluo wasn’t about to risk choosing him.

It didn’t take a genius to know that riding on his back would be an unpleasant experience.

Besides, she was skeptical if a person could even ride on Nantu’s back at all.

’He’s a fish with no limbs. How is he supposed to travel on land?’

As for the remaining four, Su Luoluo skipped over Xiao Ye without a second thought. While he wasn’t too bad to her, his snake scales were frankly intimidating.

’Snake scales are so uneven. If I sat on them the whole way, my butt would be chafed raw.’

’And I’m on my period, too!’

’If I don’t sit right and a scale scrapes my behind... it would be a veritable flood.’

Mo Xuan’s back, on the other hand, was comfortable. His fur was soft and his back was broad.

The only problem was that he tended to run recklessly, without any thought for his rider. On a normal day, she could manage, but she was wearing a menstrual wrap right now. A steady ride was a must.

Likewise, flying with Fu Feng wouldn’t make her feel very secure while on her period.

’With all that bobbing up and down, I’d probably spring a leak!’

After careful consideration, Su Luoluo walked over to Luan Ting and hopped onto his back.

He was the most gentle and considerate of them all; he would surely be mindful of her when he ran.

Besides, a wolf’s fur was soft and fluffy, making for a comfortable seat.

Seeing that Su Luoluo didn’t approach him, Nantu’s expression remained unchanged.

He had only stepped forward out of courtesy. After all, he had been the one to request watching Su Luoluo make pottery, so it was only right that he offer her a ride.

The reason Xiao Ye, Fu Feng, and Mo Xuan had all offered Su Luoluo their backs was the same.

They were used to it.

After all, they had carried Su Luoluo to the Red Land last time.

Since they ate her food, it was only natural that they follow her.

As for Luan Ting, it went without saying. He believed it was a beastman’s duty to care for a female, especially since Su Luoluo was *his* female.

Su Luoluo settled onto Luan Ting’s gray wolf-back and wrapped her arms around his neck. Once she was sure she wouldn’t fall, she said in a low voice, "Let’s go!"

At her word, they all started forward.

Ah Zhu and Cai Xia, riding on the backs of their own beastman husbands, watched Su Luoluo’s body jiggle with every step due to her weight. Incredulous expressions appeared on both their faces.

They never would have thought that Su Luoluo’s five beastman husbands would be so good to her, all of them offering her a ride.

It seemed the rumors were true.

The stories about Su Luoluo sleeping with Fu Feng and the others were real.

Why else would they be so considerate as to offer her a ride?

The two of them exchanged a glance, not quite understanding how Su Luoluo had managed it.

Females in the tribe far more beautiful than Su Luoluo had made advances toward these five beastman husbands, both openly and subtly, but the five never gave them so much as a glance.

Even the most beautiful of all, Su Nuannuan, had only ever managed to exchange a few words with them.

And Su Luoluo’s looks were...

Sure, she was much thinner than before and was starting to get a waistline.

Her skin was also a lot fairer than it used to be.

But her facial features still left much to be desired.

Her figure was still heavyset.

Could it be that the five of them had peculiar tastes and were into her type?

No, if they liked her type, they wouldn’t have despised her so much before.

Su Luoluo must have done something extraordinary that made her five beastman husbands see her in a completely new light.

This was a husband-controlling technique! They had to study it carefully.

After all, if someone with Su Luoluo’s less-than-ideal looks could make five handsome beastman husbands so utterly devoted to her...

...then if they learned her secrets, their own relationships with their husbands would surely become even more harmonious.

At this thought, their admiration for Su Luoluo grew into outright worship.

Su Luoluo, riding on Luan Ting’s back, had no idea that the two other females had just become her newest fangirls.

As she sat on Luan Ting’s back, she felt the ride was unlike any she’d had before.

Finally, a ride that wasn’t bumpy! And it was very friendly to her backside.

She had definitely made the right choice with Luan Ting today. Switching beastmen really made a world of difference.

The group had left early without eating breakfast, and after walking for some time, everyone was starting to get hungry.

Ah Zhu and Cai Xia had made some preparations and were about to pull out some wild fruit to share when Su Luoluo handed each of them three golden, glistening objects.

They hesitated. "Luoluo, what is this...?"

Su Luoluo explained simply, "It’s an egg crisp I made. You can have it for breakfast."

Su Luoluo had made them the day before by mixing cornmeal and egg, then pan-frying the batter in lard.

Hearing this, the two thanked her and accepted the food.

They had long heard that Su Luoluo was an amazing cook, but they never imagined even her breakfasts would be so unique.

They were used to eating wild fruit, so when they bit into the egg crisps, the soft yet crunchy texture made their eyes light up.

It tasted incredible—savory and crisp.

When Nantu was handed an egg crisp, he was slightly taken aback. He hadn’t expected Su Luoluo to give one to him.

He hesitated, but having skipped breakfast, his stomach was growling uncomfortably. He took it.

He glanced around. Mo Xuan, Xiao Ye, and Fu Feng took theirs and popped them into their mouths with practiced ease, as if this was a common occurrence.

Luan Ting, who was carrying her, also accepted one and began to eat it slowly without hesitation.

The beastman husbands who had come with the other two females beamed when Su Luoluo handed them the egg crisps, and they immediately dug in, wolfing them down.

They clearly held the egg crisps in high regard.

He hesitated for a moment before taking a bite. A soft yet crispy texture instantly spread across his tongue, carrying a savory aroma of egg that made his eyes light up.

He had never tasted a texture quite like it.

Su Luoluo’s cooking skills were truly something else. No wonder the other four always ate with her.

He had previously assumed they were just exaggerating because they’d never had good food before. But now, it seemed Su Luoluo really had some substance to her.

Su Luoluo was in the middle of eating an egg crisp when the system suddenly chimed.

[DING-DONG! Congratulations, Host. Nantu’s Heartbeat Value has changed. Current Heartbeat Value: 0.01]

Hearing the system’s notification, Su Luoluo immediately rolled her eyes.

’With a Heartbeat Value that small, it would have been better not to announce it at all.’

’What’s the point of reporting a measly 0.01?’

’That Nantu is so stingy. His Heartbeat Value always increases by the smallest amount.’

Su Luoluo shot a glance at Nantu. ’Are my egg crisps only worth 0.01?’

’If I’d known, I wouldn’t have even bothered giving him one.’

’Honestly, an increase like that is just insulting.’

’For a moment, she wondered if agreeing to let Nantu come along today had been the right decision after all.’
