218: Chapter 218 I've never seen a female like this before

Yan Lie noticed the movement of Jin Yi returning and couldn't hide the smile on his face in time, turning his head to look at him.

"You rest first; next time, it will be my turn to hunt."

His tone was relaxed, as if his injuries were not worth mentioning.

Bai Wanwan opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but Yan Lie gently squeezed her hand, winked at her, and whispered, "Don't worry, it's just hunting, nothing will happen."

She hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not persist.

It was naturally best if the secret could be kept, and besides, the situation had not yet reached the point where they were at their wit's end and forced to reveal it.

"We'll talk after you've recovered."

After Jin Yi responded, he threw the hunted beast onto the ground with quick and decisive movements.

He was also injured, but he didn't care at all, swiftly skinning and butchering the prey with incredibly skilled techniques.

To reduce the scent of blood from attracting wild beasts, he had already drained the prey's blood outside.

He cut off the most tender meat from the prey, arranged it neatly to the side, and said without looking up, "Eat once you've finished tidying up; I've already eaten outside."

After cutting the meat, he stood up and walked toward the corner, preparing to check his own injuries.

Who would have thought that just as he sat down, a slender shadow would fall before him.

Jin Yi looked up and found Bai Wanwan standing in front of him, her beautiful face filled with concern, her eyes fixed on the wounds on his body.

"I'll help you apply some Ointment so it heals faster," she said in a gentle tone.

"No need," he refused subconsciously. "It's just a small injury; it will be better in a few days."

It was common for a Male to get injured; this bit of skin trauma was not worth mentioning.

If he were her Beast Husband, Bai Wanwan might have directly started applying the medicine for him.

But at this moment, she hesitated for a while before handing the Ointment to him. "This Ointment works very well; you'll be fully recovered by tomorrow. Only when you regain your health will everyone be safer."

Seeing that Jin Yi didn't reach out to take it, she stuffed the Ointment into his hand, gave him a faint smile, and turned back to Yan Lie's side.

Jin Yi held the Ointment, his gaze following her involuntarily.

Over there, Bai Wanwan was still checking Yan Lie for any missed wounds.

"Is there anywhere else that hurts?"

Yan Lie immediately nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, his bright eyes fixed on her. "My whole body hurts, but if you blow on it for me again, it won't hurt anymore."

Bai Wanwan could clearly see that Yan Lie was acting shamelessly, but he was indeed covered in injuries.

That was a fact, not a lie.

Besides, she had him in her heart; if this could help him forget the pain and feel more comfortable, she was willing to coax him.

While Bai Wanwan was gently cooperating with Yan Lie, concernedly coaxing him,

Jin Yi's mouth twitched imperceptibly; this Male was clearly faking it, trying to take the opportunity to seek favor.

But what surprised him even more was that Bai Wanwan actually leaned down and carefully blew on his wounds, her movements as gentle as if she were treating her own Cubs.

She even stopped Yan Lie from moving around, and after soothing him, she got up to cut meat and feed it to her Beast Husband, letting him eat comfortably.

Jin Yi frowned slightly.

He had never seen... a Female who pampered a Male like this.

Perhaps because his gaze lingered too long, Yan Lie looked over toward him.

Bai Wanwan also turned around, following his line of sight, and happened to see Jin Yi looking away.

"Do you not know how to use it?"

Bai Wanwan immediately stood up, lifting her skirt, and walked toward him step by step.

She had forgotten that this was a Beastman; the Ointment was in a tube and had a cap.

A Beastman who had never used it would certainly not know how to open and use it.

Jin Yi wasn't actually struggling because of that; he hadn't even had the chance to try yet.

Bai Wanwan had already reached his side and taken the Ointment from his hand.

"Like this..."

She demonstrated for him, "You need to gently squeeze the Ointment and take an appropriate amount. If you use too much force, the Ointment inside will spray out and cause waste."

After she finished speaking, seeing that Jin Yi didn't say anything, she handed the Ointment back to him. "You try it now."

The Female's soft voice and the sweet fragrance on her body made Jin Yi feel as if he were facing a formidable enemy, his whole body tense.

This feeling... it was something he had never experienced, even when Zhuo Ling had been close to him before.

He didn't understand it, but he subconsciously felt that this was very dangerous.

"Okay, I know. You go take care of your Beast Husband."

He just wanted this Female to leave his side quickly; he didn't want his body or emotions to be overly influenced by her.

"Alright, if there's anything you don't know how to do, just ask me again."

After Bai Wanwan got up and left, the sweet fragrance that had been lingering around him slowly faded.

Jin Yi took a light breath, and his tense spine finally relaxed.

He looked down at the Ointment in his hand and, following Bai Wanwan's example, squeezed out a little and applied it to the most serious wound on his outer thigh.

A miraculous scene occurred; the wound that had just been bleeding seemed to be sealed by the Ointment.

And... he didn't know if his eyes were playing tricks on him, but he actually saw the blood that had welled up disappear back into the wound.

The originally ghastly wound had a tingling, numb sensation after the Ointment was applied.

He applied it to a few other more serious areas and put down the remaining half of the Ointment.

Such good Ointment should be saved for life-saving situations; there was no need to waste it on these minor injuries.

The sky slowly darkened, and the light in the Cave gradually faded away.

Jin Yi sat in the corner. "You two can sleep without worry; I'll keep watch tonight."

"No need, I'll keep watch. You've been exhausted from searching for us these past two days, while I've been hiding in the Cave and haven't wasted much energy."

Besides, with Wan Wan by his side, he couldn't possibly fall asleep soundly in such an environment.

Hearing him say this, Jin Yi didn't insist. He really hadn't rested much over the past few days while trying to find Bai Wanwan as quickly as possible, and even when he did get some sleep, his nerves had been tense.

"Alright then, I'll sleep for a while. If you get tired, wake me up."

"Okay."

The two Males quickly divided the work, and Bai Wanwan didn't overestimate her abilities by trying to share the work with them.

Staying up late was definitely not a problem, but the key was that if a wild beast broke in, she wouldn't have time to defend herself, which would not only harm herself but also the two Males.

So, she just honestly leaned against Yan Lie.

She was truly exhausted from the day's travel, but her nerves were still a bit tense, and she couldn't relax immediately, yet she soon drifted off to sleep.

Yan Lie wrapped his arm around her, letting her find a comfortable position.

"Sleep, I'm here, don't worry."

"Hmm," Bai Wanwan turned over slightly, her slender arms gently wrapping around his lean waist, and she closed her eyes.

The Cave was very quiet. It hadn't been long since Bai Wanwan closed her eyes, but she finally relaxed and gradually drifted into a deep sleep.

Yan Lie looked down at the Female in his arms, worried that she wouldn't be comfortable, so he pulled her completely into his embrace instead of letting her lean against the hard, cold Cliff.

Bai Wanwan was asleep and didn't know anything; she just felt warm and was sleeping very comfortably...

In the Cave, the sound of Bai Wanwan and Jin Yi's breathing after falling into a deep sleep slowly drifted out.

Yan Lie's gaze was locked on the entrance of the Cave, his ears twitching at any moment, carefully listening to the movements outside.

Jin Yi couldn't sleep soundly at all; as he was sleeping, he suddenly opened his eyes...
