161: Chapter 161 Preparing to Depart

"I'm looking at how handsome you are." She deliberately leaned in close to him, her gaze seriously roaming over his face.

The shape of his eyes was very beautiful; his double eyelids weren't deep, and his eyes were slender and slightly upturned, shimmering with a cold light.

His entire being exuded an air of abstinence, yet he was a completely different person once they were in bed.

Just now, she had intended to make him happy, but after staring for a while, she found herself captivated.

Sensing the Female's appreciative gaze, a faint smile finally appeared at the corners of Zhu Xiu's mouth.

In the past, he hadn't felt that good looks were important. If he could have traded his appearance for absolute power, he would have done so without hesitation.

But now, if it meant Wan Wan's gaze would always remain on him, he was willing to trade his power for his appearance.

Seeing the Little Female leaning in close and thinking of the scene he had just witnessed...

He suddenly raised his hand, cupping the back of her head to gently pull the Female toward him. He lowered his head, accurately capturing her slightly parted lips just as she was about to speak.

As if wanting to completely erase any traces left on her lips, he kissed her deeply, not missing a single spot.

He only released her when she was on the verge of suffocation.

His actions let Bai Wanwan know that this snake still remembered what had just happened.

However, he didn't bring it out into the open, choosing instead to leave a brand in her heart in his own way.

It had to be said, Zhu Xiu succeeded.

Because he didn't make it explicit, she felt instead that she had wronged him.

The hand around her waist did not loosen. "Sleep in my room tonight."

The Female in his arms had flushed cheeks, releasing an enticing aura.

Zhu Xiu never knew he was such a lustful beast.

In the past, he had seen too much in Wandering Beast City, and his heart had remained untroubled.

But now, he wanted her to belong to him every single day.

"Alright, let go first. It's already dark, and I haven't eaten yet."

Only then did Zhu Xiu let go. "Hungry? I'll cook for you."

Bai Wanwan smiled and shook her head. "It's okay, I'm not that hungry. I'll do it myself today; you just help me from the side."

It just so happened that Yan Lie had brought back a lot of fruit today. She planned to make skewers, grilling the meat and fruit together. The fusion of fruity and meaty aromas was also very delicious.

Acting on the thought, she grilled a large stone basin of barbecue with Zhu Xiu's help.

She turned around and fed a meat skewer to Zhu Xiu's lips. "Try it."

Zhu Xiu's eyes were fixed on her as he opened his mouth to eat the meat and fruit fed to him together.

Bai Wanwan asked with a beaming smile, "Is it good?"

Zhu Xiu's eyebrows rose slightly. He truly hadn't expected the taste of fruit and meat together to be so good.

His Female could always come up with some strange foods, and the flavors were always exceptionally good.

As a Snake Beast who used to eat prey only for energy, he too began to crave the novel foods she made every day.

"It's good," he replied to her with curved lips.

Just then, Yan Lie and Xin Feng came in from outside. Smelling the aroma of the food, Yan Lie immediately leaned over. "Wan Wan, it smells so good!"

Bai Wanwan stuffed a skewer of meat into his mouth. Yan Lie was instantly satisfied, his eyes curving into crescents from pleasure.

His Female was the most incredible Female on this continent.

She was so beautiful, had such a good personality, and could make so much delicious food.

Fortunately, he had good vision and was thick-skinned enough to win Wan Wan's favor and luckily become her Beast Husband.

As a master of treating everyone equally, after feeding Yan Lie, Bai Wanwan naturally walked over to Xin Feng's side and personally fed him a skewer.

"My Little Female is the most amazing; everything she makes is delicious."

Xin Feng's praise caused the other two Males to turn their gazes toward him.

Xin Feng acted as if he didn't see them, making a request under Bai Wan's happy gaze. "Wan Wan, can you feed me one more skewer?"

Yan Lie was incredibly annoyed. Why had he only cared about being happy just now and failed to speak his praise first?

Bai Wanwan didn't notice the little schemes between them.

She tilted her head to peek outside and found the moonlight was just right. She immediately called to Zhu Xiu and Yan Lie, "The weather is great today. Let's move the table to the courtyard and eat outside."

After summoning her Beast Husbands to work, Bai Wanwan wiped her hands and stepped out the door first.

Shi Hua's home was less than twenty meters away from theirs.

It was only a few steps away.

Walking to the door and seeing it closed, Bai Wanwan was about to raise her hand to knock when she suddenly remembered the activities beastmen often engaged in at night in the Beast World.

She awkwardly withdrew her hand. Knocking now would likely disturb the couple's good time.

Just as she was about to leave, a voice came from inside. "I'll bring some over to Sister, then I'll be back in a bit."

As she spoke, the door was pulled open. Shi Hua, carrying a stone basin filled with fruit, almost collided with Bai Wanwan.

"Oh my!"

Shi Hua was startled and took two steps back before she could clearly see the figure outside.

"Sister?"

Bai Wanwan gave a light cough. "I grilled some meat, and the weather is nice today. Call Mu Feng and come over to eat together."

"I was just about to bring you some fruit, Sister! That's perfect then."

Shi Hua's face was written with joy. She would absolutely not refuse; currently, the thing that made her happiest was being able to eat the various foods Sister Wanwan made by hand.

"Then I'll head back first. You two take your time coming over."

After Shi Hua responded, she immediately turned back to call her Beast Husband, "Mu Feng, Sister asked us to go over and eat. Come out quickly!"

Bai Wanwan had already walked quite a distance, but she could still hear Shi Hua's voice.

The surroundings had slowly quieted down. The conversation between Shi Hua and her Beast Husband added a touch of life to this tranquility.

Bai Wanwan found that she had slowly integrated into this world and had grown accustomed to this daily life.

Not having to work herself to exhaustion every day, living as she pleased and taking things as they came—this was exactly the state of life she had pursued so intensely in her previous life.

A large stone basin of grilled meat was placed on the table.

Fearing it wouldn't be enough, she also fried many meat steaks.

Shi Hua and her Beast Husband arrived quickly.

"Sit down, sit down. Let's eat while we discuss some matters."

Shi Hua's eyes were glued to the stone basin, her focus entirely on eating. "Sister, you speak, I'm listening."

Mu Feng looked at her dotingly, proactively cutting meat for her.

"It's like this: the potatoes should be ready for harvest in a few days. Once we're done harvesting, we'll set off."

Starting these past two days, she had noticed the stems and leaves beginning to turn yellow.

The potatoes were already quite large. If the leaves were turning yellow, they should be ready for harvest, right?

She had no experience, so to avoid digging them up too early, she planned to wait a few more days.

"Mhm, we'll follow your arrangements, Sister."

Shi Hua's mouth was stuffed full as she ate, her speech muffled as she chewed.

Bai Wanwan heard her clearly and turned her gaze to Mu Feng. "You are a beastman of the Black Dog Tribe. We might settle in another Tribe in the future. Do you have any other thoughts?"

Although she wanted to take Shi Hua with her, if the two of them wanted to stay, she wouldn't force them.

"I'll listen to Hua Hua. If she's willing to follow you, then we'll follow you together. Wherever you go, we'll go."

Bai Wanwan's Beast Husbands had saved him and Hua Hua; his life belonged to them.

"Then it's settled. We set off in three days!"
