181: Chapter 181 Deceiving Jin Yi

Jin Yi looked at the Female in front of him. She was extremely beautiful, with skin as white and soft as snow. Her slender waist, accentuated by her plain long dress, looked as if a gust of wind could snap it.

Realizing what he was thinking, he frowned and snapped back to reality. "The Clan Leader asked me to bring you some supplies."

He stepped aside and gestured for the Males behind him to bring the chest over.

Soon, the chest was placed in front of Bai Wanwan.

Jin Yi's gaze swept across her face. Seeing that she had no intention of opening it, he stepped forward and lifted the lid himself.

A shimmering jiao sa skirt, a dazzling gemstone necklace, head ornaments...

Even the most favored Females in the Tribe might not be able to get these things.

Jin Yi turned his gaze back to Bai Wanwan's face. The corners of her mouth were slightly curled up, but her eyes remained calm.

He couldn't help but feel a bit more curious about this Female's identity.

Females of the Black Dog Tribe should have rarely seen such things.

He could tell she wasn't particularly excited.

"The Clan Leader has sent such precious items. Is there something you need our help with?"

The smile on her face bloomed slowly like a spring flower, soul-stirringly beautiful.

Several Males from the Golden Lion Tribe didn't dare look any longer. Their hearts pounded, and the tips of their ears instantly turned red.

Jin Yi's expression remained calm, only his brow furrowed slightly.

He felt this Female was a bit too good-looking. Before long, every Male in the Golden Lion Tribe would know of Bai Wanwan's existence.

It would likely cause a lot of trouble.

He looked into the Female's eyes and replied, "There is nothing we need your help with. This is simply a gift for a distinguished guest."

Jin Yi knew very well what it meant for his Father Beast to let this Female named Bai Wanwan stay in this Stone House.

There was no way his Father Beast had sent these things through him without some ulterior motive.

Bai Wanwan was a bit surprised. Since the Young Chief of the Golden Lion Tribe said it was a gift and didn't require anything in return, why refuse something for free?

Thus, her smile grew even brighter, her eyes shimmering like water. "Then many thanks for the Clan Leader's gift. To show my gratitude, I shall also give the Clan Leader a gift in return."

After speaking, Bai Wanwan turned and went inside, her skirt fluttering. A moment later, she emerged carrying a stone basin filled with over twenty potatoes.

She handed the potatoes to Jin Yi with a smile. "This fruit is called a potato. It only grows in harsh, barren lands, making it very rare and precious. I only have a few, and I'm giving half to you."

Jin Yi looked down at the ordinary-looking fruit in the stone basin.

He truly had never seen it before.

Looking up again, he caught a flash of craftiness in her eyes.

Jin Yi picked up a potato. "Rare and precious?"

Bai Wanwan nodded and raised an eyebrow confidently. "Yes. Have you seen it before?"

She had grown them herself. Even if there were similar crops in the Beast World, they couldn't possibly be identical.

A barely perceptible smile appeared in Jin Yi's eyes. "I haven't. Thank you."

He took the stone basin of potatoes and handed it to the other Males.

"This fruit can't be eaten raw. You have to throw it into a fire to roast it until it's soft, then you can eat it directly. It's even more delicious with a bit of salt."

"Alright."

Bai Wanwan thought to herself that if anyone asked later, she hadn't taken this chest of gifts for nothing; she had returned a basin of rare 'fruit'!

Fortunately, Clan Leader Jin Cang had Jin Yi deliver this chest of things without intending to ask Bai Wanwan for anything, but simply to let Jin Yi leave a good impression on her.

Otherwise, he would have been scammed by his own cub and Bai Wanwan together.

"By the way," Jin Yi said, turning back as if suddenly remembering something. "How long do you plan to stay in this Stone House?"

Since it was their house, Jin Yi's question was perfectly reasonable.

"At the earliest, until next year's Warm Season. At the latest, probably until the Hot Season..." Bai Wanwan spoke truthfully.

Having received his answer, Jin Yi nodded with a smile. "Then I wish you a pleasant stay in the Golden Lion Tribe."

With that, Jin Yi led the beastmen away.

As Jin Yi left, the smile on Bai Wanwan's face slowly faded.

This Young Clan Leader clearly had more to say, but he seemed to have changed his mind.

Bai Wanwan couldn't figure out the intentions of this father and son.

In any case, as long as they didn't provoke her, everything would be fine. If they did, she wouldn't mind dragging the entire Golden Lion Tribe down with her.

Jin Yi had indeed changed his mind.

He had come personally today to deliver the supplies at his Father Beast's request, wanting to test the Female.

He could easily distinguish that the way the Female looked at him contained admiration but lacked the possessiveness of other Females.

So, after she said she would leave by next year's Warm Season, Jin Yi completely abandoned all the plans he had in mind.

Since she didn't intend to stay and cooperate with his Father Beast, there was no need for him to target her.

"Sister, was that the Young Chief of the Golden Lion Tribe just now?"

Shi Hua had been in a daze the whole time.

She only seemed to snap out of it after Jin Yi had gone far away.

"It seems so."

Bai Wanwan lifted the jiao sa skirt from the wooden chest; it was light and gorgeous.

"So beautiful!" Shi Hua praised sincerely. She had never seen such a beautiful dress.

"It is indeed beautiful. You'll definitely look good in it."

Bai Wanwan held the dress up against Shi Hua to measure it.

Shi Hua wasn't actually unattractive; her features were just a bit plain.

Isn't there a popular saying in Modern Times? There are no ugly women in the world, only lazy ones.

In Bai Wanwan's view, Shi Hua's natural features were quite good.

She had a plump figure but didn't look bloated. With a little grooming and dressing up, she would be more beautiful than most Females.

Shi Hua quickly waved her hands. "The Young Clan Leader gave this to you. I can't take it."

Bai Wanwan laughed. "What's given to me is mine. I can give it to whoever I want. Besides... we'll have plenty of dresses to wear in the future."

Life would only get better and better.

"Still, no. I can't wear it."

Bai Wanwan glanced at her bulging belly. "True, you can't wear it now. Once you've had the cub and can wear it, we'll wear them together. I'll put it away for now."

Bai Wanwan packed the dress away and carried the chest inside.

"We're having a barbecue for lunch. Shi Hua, let's skewer the food together."

Bai Wanwan went inside to prepare the ingredients, while Shi Hua's mouth watered as she looked at the potatoes.

On the way to the Golden Lion Tribe, Bai Wanwan had already roasted potatoes for Shi Hua to taste.

Shi Hua liked them very much. Bai Wanwan felt that the tastes of Females should be similar.

There really were no potatoes in the Beast World. Delicious and rare—weren't they precious?

"Sister, this fruit is so precious, and we're eating so many at once..."

Shi Hua swallowed her saliva as she spoke.

In truth, she felt the dress was useless; it would be better to save the fruit for a few more meals.

Bai Wanwan couldn't help but laugh, thinking about what she had just said to Jin Yi.

"You watched me grow them. How precious can they be? Once we've eaten them, we'll just plant more."

Shi Hua had watched her grow them, but no other beastmen knew how; only her sister did.

So, this fruit was still very precious.

Bai Wanwan finished peeling the potatoes and was about to prepare the other ingredients when she heard Yan Lie calling from the backyard: "Wan Wan..."
