305: Chapter 305 He will consider getting married

Chapter 35: He Will Consider a Pairing Ceremony

Listening to his Mother's earnest words, a blurred figure suddenly flashed through Qiu Rong's deep eyes.

That figure had already become blurred in his memory; if he didn't intentionally think about it, he would have almost forgotten her appearance.

But he remembered every detail of their physical intimacy clearly.

Just like that, she had given birth to four healthy and lively Tiger Cubs for him behind his back.

Thinking of his own Cubs, Qiu Rong's gaze softened.

Even though a Sacred Female was not bound by the ordinary rules of the Beast World, and the Males they took an interest in had the right to choose again regardless of whether they had already undergone a Pairing Ceremony.

But he did not want his Cubs to recognize a strange Female as their Mother.

The Sacred Female would have many Cubs in the future; in such an environment, Tiger Cubs that weren't her biological offspring wouldn't be able to tell if she was truly their Mother, leading to unnecessary expectations and eventual disappointment.

That would not be conducive to the Tiger Cubs' growth.

"Mother, you should give up on this idea," he said in a low, slow, yet firm voice. "I don't want to have a Pairing Ceremony for the time being."

Chi Yu's eyes reddened with anxiety as she tightly gripped his wrist. "Qiu Rong! Do you want to be like those old and weak Males, eventually dying alone on a hunting path without even a family member to collect your body?"

Looking at his Mother's worried and hopeful eyes, for a moment, he almost blurted out the truth.

But his throat bobbed, and he swallowed those words back down.

His Mother had more than one Beast Husband by her side, and he wasn't her only descendant.

With so many eyes watching, he still hadn't determined who exactly had harmed his Father Beast.

He couldn't let his Cubs be in danger.

"Mother," he said, softening his tone and taking her hand, "I won't have a Pairing Ceremony with Feng Xi. But I promise you, I will seriously consider the matter."

Chi Yu's expression relaxed, and a flicker of hope ignited in her eyes. "Feng Xi is a Sacred Female and the most suitable Female for you. Think about it carefully."

"Mhm..."

Qiu Rong did not refute his Mother's words.

Although Feng Xi was a Sacred Female, in his eyes, she was no different from any other Female.

Bai Wanwan's face flashed through his mind once again, and her every smile and frown suddenly became clear.

Chi Yu saw that he was silent and seemed to be spacing out.

A hint of inquiry suddenly appeared in her eyes. "Qiu Rong, you've been out for so long; did you meet a Female you like out there? If so... tell your Mother who she is. We can bring her to the White Tiger Tribe."

If Qiu Rong truly had a Female he liked, even if she wasn't a Sacred Female, it would be fine as long as he liked her.

She most feared that Qiu Rong would never have a Pairing Ceremony and would grow old alone.

To dispel his Mother's idea of matching him with Feng Xi, Qiu Rong simply admitted to it.

"Yes, I have a Female I like, but she is in a distant Medium-sized Tribe. If there's a chance in the future, I'll bring her to see you."

Chi Yu had no idea this was just her Male Cub's temporary expedient; she immediately smiled with joy and no longer insisted on him having a Pairing Ceremony with Feng Xi...

In the early morning, Bai Wanwan got up early and got out of bed quietly.

The weather was cool, and The Cubs were sleeping very soundly.

Without disturbing them, she pulled her beast skin skirt tight and walked out.

Zhu Xiu was preparing breakfast for her and The Cubs.

Bai Wanwan walked quietly behind him and suddenly shouted "Wah!" to scare him.

Her voice was kept very low and didn't scare him at all.

Zhu Xiu glanced at her sideways, a faint smile on his lips. "Who can a little cat scare?"

Bai Wanwan's original form was a cat.

She bared her teeth. "What's wrong with a cat? Even a cat has its moments of showing its might."

Zhu Xiu chuckled. "Yes. Are you hungry? Sit down and eat breakfast."

Bai Wanwan turned happily to wash up, saying to him as she washed, "I saw there are quite a lot of wet potatoes. I plan to fry some Fries and make a few pots of Hot Pot. How about we invite Big Brother Yan Lie and the others over for a meal tonight?"

Zhu Xiu had no objections; other beastmen's homes in the Golden Lion Tribe might be short on food.

But he would never let his Female and Cubs go hungry.

Wringing out her towel, Bai Wanwan continued to chatter, "I feel like Big Brother Yan Chi and the others helped us so much. They could have left, but they came back because they were worried, which is why they ended up staying in the Golden Lion Tribe. To show our gratitude, we should treat them to a meal."

"Alright," Zhu Xiu nodded readily. "What ingredients do you need? I'll prepare them in a moment."

"Prepare more meat; after all, there are so many Males. You don't need to worry about anything else."

Her balance in the system space was sufficient now, and buying ingredients wouldn't cost too many points.

They had plenty of meat at home, and by spending a few hundred more points in the System Mall to buy some ingredients and drinks, she could make a sumptuous meal.

No sooner said than done; she would prepare the other ingredients in the afternoon.

In the morning, she picked out some of the wet potatoes, washed them, and sliced them.

She heated oil in a pot and poured basin after basin of potato slices into the hot oil.

Once they were fried until slightly yellow and crispy, she quickly scooped them out.

There weren't many snacks in the Beast World.

Males ate only to avoid starving; they had neither the privilege nor the habit of enjoying snacks.

But Bai Wanwan felt that one should enjoy life while they could.

Her Beast Husbands deserved to eat well and live well.

Just as she scooped the potatoes out of the pot, Shi Hua smelled the aroma and called out from her home, "Sister, what are you making? Do you need help?"

Bai Wanwan leaned back and shouted over, "If you're free, I really do need your help."

"Okay, I'll come over as soon as I finish feeding meat to The Cubs."

Not long after, Shi Hua finished her work and ran over through the rain.

Bai Wanwan had already fried a large basin of Potato Chips.

Fearing the Males wouldn't be able to handle flavors that were too strong, she only sprinkled a bit of salt and a very small amount of chili powder.

She just tasted a piece; it was crispy and delicious. Although it couldn't compare to commercial Potato Chips, for a place so lacking in food...

...this was definitely a snack that would be sought after by the Females.

"Sister, what do you need me to do?"

Bai Wanwan picked up a potato chip with her hand. "Open your mouth."

Shi Hua was already used to her feeding her; she immediately opened her mouth to catch it, and after eating it, her eyes immediately narrowed with happiness.

"Sister, it's so delicious."

"As long as it tastes good." Bai Wanwan beckoned her to help slice the remaining potatoes.

With Shi Hua's help, she had fried four basins of Potato Chips by noon.

She also prepared some side dishes.

Previously, when she didn't have enough points, even if she wanted to treat herself because her palate had been bland for so long, she had been stingy with her points.

But now, she had plenty of points.

She bought all sorts of ingredients.

There were five or six kinds of meatballs, as well as Shrimp Paste, Tripe, Frozen Tofu, Duck Blood, Broccoli, Sweet Potato Starch Noodles, Seaweed Sprouts, Tribute Vegetables...

Because there were many guests today, she bought a total of over twenty kinds of dishes.

With the Snow Season approaching, food was becoming increasingly difficult to obtain.

She planned to let Yan Chi and the others have a rich and delicious meal before the Snow Season arrived.

The friendship shown by Yan Chi and the Leopard Clan when they turned back to protect them was not something a single meal could repay.

It was just a small token of gratitude; if they needed help in the future and she had the chance, she would not hesitate.
