Chapter 14: Chapter 14, The Cold-hearted Manli_1
Translator: 549690339
Seeing Little Silver Wolf savoring his meal, Ji Nuan finally stood up, "Aunt Rou, you can cook the Giggle Beast the way I did it, or you can roast it directly.
Both ways are delicious. Please keep the leftovers.
I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble while just trying to bring you some food."
Ge Rou patted her on the head, "What are you talking about? Your Brother Xiu Yan is not much of a talker, so Aunt Rou will thank Shan Zaizai on his behalf.
But you mustn't eat things you don't recognize in the future; it's too dangerous, understand?"
The heartfelt admonishment made Ji Nuan chuckle and say, "Mhm, I won't, rest assured Aunt Rou."
Seeing Ji Nuan nod her messy little head in approval before her mother, Xiu Yan couldn't help but doubt this sly little girl.
He had heard her whisper "serves her right" when Manli was taken away.
A vindictive little cub.
The surrounding Orcs had left with the Shaman, each attending to their own tasks.
Only the Clan Leader and Aunt Naima were left, looking at the little mud balls with drooling anticipation, their eyes shining with mirth.
They had already given the Giggle Beast to Aunt Rou, as for dividing it...
Ahem~this was not something a little girl like her should be involved in.
Ji Nuan quickly picked up her ugly basket and bid farewell to Uncle Xiu Li's family and the Clan Leader couple.
Before leaving, she also picked up Little Silver Wolf, who was eating until oil dripped from his mouth, stroked his fluffy fur, and then satisfactorily headed for her cave.
After a fierce competition, the Clan Leader Ge Xing ended up getting two of the Giggle Beasts.
The tall Orc held the two mud balls and blinked at his female with a twinkle in his eyes.
They exchanged knowing glances and then ran off to their cave, sneaking away like thieves.
The left-behind Naima nudged Ge Rou with her elbow and asked softly, "Hey, sister! Why... why did you take a liking to a female like Manli? Xiu Yan is one of the top warriors in the tribe, to be matched with such a female... isn't that like giving away the Humming Beast?"
Ge Rou's eyes twitched, Naima's metaphor is really...
"Isn't it because Manli has fewer males, I specifically asked around, Manli only has a few males."
Hearing her words, Naima gasped in exasperation, slapping Ge Rou on the back.
"You naughty creature, if it wasn't for what happened today, you would have ruined Xiu Yan."
Ge Rou was startled by her dramatic reaction. She handed the Giggle Beast to her own orc, then grasped Naima's hand, asking anxiously, "Sister-in-law! What do you mean?"
Naima sighed, "Your Xiu Qi's cub was sick last winter, your whole family was worried about losing him, that's why you don't know."
"Manli had 8 males last winter, how come this year she only has a few left? Hmph!" Naima huffed.
"Last winter, Manli was fussing about not eating cold, frozen meat, even roasted wasn't good enough. She demanded fresh hunt.
Without a choice, her partners had to take turns hunting for her. But, there was one time when they went out, none of them came back.
This female is so insensitive to her males, everything in her eyes and mind is all about herself.
So what if she can bear cubs?
Would you also make your Xiu Yan venture out to hunt for her in the winter and then put him at risk?"
Thinking that her own cub almost wound up with such a selfish female because of her, a sense of cold dread seeped into Ge Rou's heart, like a hole was chiseled into it, with a chilling, biting wind blowing in.
