253: Chapter 253 Do you like Jin Yi?
"If it's not because of Shi Hua, what's with that expression?"
She carefully observed Yan Lie's expression.
To say he was angry... it didn't seem like it, but he didn't look happy either.
There was definitely something weighing on his mind.
Yan Lie moved his lips, "Wan Wan... do you like Jin Yi?"
Yan Lie thought about how he had entrusted Wan Wan to Jin Yi back then, and how he himself had fallen down the canyon and been missing for so many days.
They... were alone together, and Wan Wan was such a charming and lovely Little Female.
It was impossible for Jin Yi not to be moved!
"Like... Jin Yi?"
Bai Wanwan had never even considered this question; her heart was limited, and it was already filled by several Beast Husbands.
But during the Beast Tide, he had looked after her many times without abandoning her; that kindness was something she would remember for a lifetime.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I don't like him, and he doesn't like me."
"Really?" Yan Lie immediately became happy.
Although he had also joined this family later, he was very grateful that Wan Wan had accepted him.
But as a Male's instinct, he still couldn't welcome other powerful and outstanding Males joining in.
"Really. Shi Hua and I will take the Cubs for a stroll nearby. Go call your elder brother over to eat later; I'll cook to entertain him."
Yan Chi had come from afar to find Yan Lie; as Yan Lie's partner, she had to show some welcome.
"Okay, once Zhu Xiu and Xin Feng are back to look after you, I'll go find my elder brother."
"Okay, then I'm going out."
Once Bai Wanwan went out the door, Yan Lie didn't dare let her leave his sight.
He sat at the door processing beast skins, his gaze falling on Bai Wanwan from time to time.
Bai Wanwan didn't plan to go too far; in a little while, the sunlight would become increasingly intense.
Only the early morning was cool.
She had originally thought there wouldn't be many beastmen in the Tribe at this time.
Unexpectedly, the Females had already gathered in a group.
Several of them were the targets Bai Wanwan had treated with manure water.
When they saw Bai Wanwan, they hurriedly turned their gazes away and turned their backs to her.
They hated Bai Wanwan very much, but they were afraid to speak out.
The best way was not to provoke her.
But Bai Wanwan thought about how she had been plotted against by the Golden Lion and other Males last time, nearly dying in the Beast Tide; she narrowed her eyes and stepped forward.
"Oh, how lively! What are you chatting about?"
Seeing Bai Wanwan approach so familiarly, the mouths of several Females who had tasted the manure water twitched.
They wanted to ignore her and give her the cold shoulder.
But Bai Wanwan acted as if she couldn't tell, asking with a smile: "Which of your Beast Husbands has a Yellow-Tier Talent?"
At first, no Female paid her any mind.
Bai Wanwan "tsk-ed," "You were so arrogant when you dealt with me before, I thought your Beast Husbands were so powerful! Turns out you don't even have a single Yellow-Tier Beast Husband?"
Hearing this, three Females couldn't sit still, "Who says we don't? One of my Beast Husbands has a Yellow-Tier Talent."
"Right, my Beast Husband also..."
Bai Wanwan's eyes flickered, and she nodded with a smile, "So impressive! Then how many Beast Husbands do you have, and what races are they?"
Those Females originally didn't want to talk to her, but for some reason...
When she asked, the words just kept pouring out of their mouths.
"Besides a Golden Lion, my Beast Husbands also include Tiger Clan Males."
"My Beast Husbands also include the Ape Clan and Peacock Clan..."
The Female speaking had a triumphant look on her face; Bai Wanwan's gaze swept over her face.
The other party noticed and shrank her neck, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
She hadn't offended Bai Wanwan, had she? She wouldn't use Itch Powder on her again, would she?
Thinking of this... that heart-scratching itch spread, as if she really had been hit by Itch Powder.
Not her...
Bai Wanwan immediately made a judgment and looked at the next Female, "What about you? What race are your Beast Husbands?"
There were more than ten Females present; clearly none of them liked Bai Wanwan, but unable to withstand her questioning, they all confessed everything about their households.
Zhuo Ling walked over and happened to hear Bai Wanwan's questioning; she was startled and immediately hurried over to interrupt them.
"Wan Wan, you're finally willing to leave the house. Why do you stay cooped up at home every day and never come out?"
Bai Wanwan turned around, her gaze falling on her face, and then she gave a soft laugh, "That's thanks to those Males who tried to harm me. Although I luckily survived the Beast Tide, I also suffered significant injuries. Once I find out who sent those Males, I'll let her know that death isn't the most painful thing..."
As Zhuo Ling's heart sank, an unharmonious voice came from beside her, "Then what is the most painful thing..."
That Female looked at Bai Wanwan with clear yet foolish eyes.
Bai Wanwan laughed out loud, "Soon... you'll find out."
Zhuo Ling's mouth twitched twice, then she forced a smile to maintain her expression, "You really suffered this time. It's better for us Females to try to stay in the Tribe. With Males protecting us, we won't encounter those dangers."
The surrounding Females nodded one after another; they generally wouldn't take a single step out of the Tribe, spending their entire lives within it.
Seeing the topic being diverted, Zhuo Ling breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Who knew that before she could finish exhaling, Bai Wanwan spoke up again: "By the way, Zhuo Ling, what races are your Beast Husbands?"
She forcefully pulled the topic back, her gaze fixed on Zhuo Ling.
"Wan Wan... my Beast Husbands aren't worth mentioning, how could they compare to yours?"
Zhuo Ling had already guessed that Bai Wanwan was investigating who the Males that attacked her that day were through questioning.
She tried to flatter Bai Wanwan so she would stop asking.
"That's true, those Beast Husbands of yours are indeed quite ordinary."
Bai Wanwan's words left Zhuo Ling choking, unable to catch her breath, furious to the core.
She didn't know what kind of ability this Bai Wanwan had. To have such good luck...
Even as outstanding as she was, it was difficult to find even one Male as excellent as Zhu Xiu, Xin Feng, or Yan Lie to be her Beast Husband.
Bai Wanwan had actually gotten three all at once.
Seeing Zhuo Ling clearly angry but having to suppress it, Bai Wanwan smiled meaningfully.
"I've already asked you the question, and you haven't answered me yet."
She replied vaguely: "Most are from the Black Dog Clan, it's not like you don't know, Wan Wan."
Zhuo Ling turned her gaze away, hiding her emotions.
Bai Wanwan had no interest in Zhuo Ling's Beast Husbands, so she had no idea how many she had or what races they were.
But looking around, the other Females were less suspicious; instead, Zhuo Ling was the most suspicious.
"I have no designs on your Beast Husbands, how would I know? Tell me, do your Beast Husbands include the Ape Clan, and a Golden Lion, and..."
Bai Wanwan counted them off one by one, her gaze not missing a single one of Zhuo Ling's expressions.
Just then, Zhuo Ling suddenly looked behind Bai Wanwan and shouted in surprise, "Jin Yi..."
Chapter 246 was also censored that day; it was the 'car' scene between Yan Lie and Wan Wan. Those who haven't read it, remember to check it out.
