382: Chapter 382 Tearing Away Her Disguise

"Wan Wan, you're not allowed to look at him. Look at me." Yan Lie moved two steps, blocking her line of sight.

Bai Wanwan could do nothing with him, so she could only coax him, saying, "Qiu Rong must have something to talk to me about. Go check on The Cubs first, and I'll come find you in a bit."

"Then give me a kiss."

Helpless, Bai Wanwan held his face and gave him another kiss.

Only then did Yan Lie leave, satisfied, looking back every three steps.

Once Yan Lie's figure disappeared around the wall, Bai Wanwan walked toward Qiu Rong step by step.

"Why did you come out? Your injuries are so heavy, why aren't you resting properly?"

As she spoke, she reached out to support him.

"You've already given birth to Cubs for all of them?"

"No, I haven't had Yin Ze's yet."

After saying this, she realized Qiu Rong was looking at her with a half-smile.

Bai Wanwan instantly realized her slip and quickly tried to cover it up. "Xin Feng told me."

Looking at her stunningly beautiful and delicate face, Qiu Rong wanted to tear off her mask and make her reveal her true side.

Instead of letting her play dumb and toy with him.

"Bai Wanwan... do you think I'm easy to fool?" Qiu Rong's eyes narrowed dangerously.

"What are you saying?" She blinked guiltily. "What did I fool you about?"

But even though she felt guilty, she didn't show it. In Qiu Rong's eyes, she looked exactly the same as she did back in the Cat Clan Tribe, when she had calmly deceived him.

Truly hateful!

"If you can't remember, then I'll speak with you slowly, and settle the score slowly..."

Hearing the gritted-teeth tone in his voice, Bai Wanwan felt even more that she couldn't admit it.

By not admitting it, she, who currently had no memory, could still claim to be innocent.

If she admitted it, he would probably kill her, wouldn't he?

"Uh, okay, what do you want to say to me?" Her eyes were extremely clear, as if she truly didn't know.

Qiu Rong reached out and pinched her chin, tilting her face upward. "Back then, you used this exact expression to say you had no idea what I was talking about. Do you think I'll still believe you now?"

Regardless of whether he believed her or not, she simply couldn't admit it.

If she admitted it, she was afraid he would choke her to death in one go.

She raised her hand, grasping his arm, and deliberately squeezed out a few tears. "Then go ahead and choke me. I don't remember anything anyway. If you hate me, then take your revenge however you want!"

Bai Wanwan steeled her heart. Back when he saw The Cubs coming to find her, that was when he was at his angriest.

He didn't kill her then, so would he kill her now?

Thus, she prepared to take a gamble.

She gambled that Qiu Rong was only trying to scare her, wanting to expose her act of amnesia.

But there were too many grievances between the two of them; she had to make him fall for her before she "recovered" her memory.

She stiffened her neck, her gaze carrying a hint of stubbornness as she met Qiu Rong's eyes without backing down.

Looking at Bai Wanwan like this, something in Qiu Rong's heart underwent a subtle change.

Other Females were transparent to him at a glance.

Only Bai Wanwan always seemed to be veiled in front of him, different from all other Females.

Once, he had thought about biting this Female to death for daring to scheme against him.

He had let her go then, and now, she had appeared again.

And once again, she was able to stir up his emotions.

His finger brushed past the corner of her eye, catching a trace of moisture.

"Bai Wanwan, I don't care if you've truly forgotten or are faking it, but you've provoked me twice. Until I call it off, you are not allowed to let go, do you understand?"

His gaze was clearly not gentle at all, even somewhat chilling.

But looking at his face, Bai Wanwan's heart skipped a beat for some reason.

She stood on her tiptoes and leaned toward his lips. "Okay, okay, only you can call it off."

What else could she do?

She had already given birth to a litter of Cubs for him, not to mention she had actively provoked him a second time.

Besides, whether in terms of software or hardware, he had superior conditions.

Why would she want to call it off?

After getting her response, Qiu Rong held the back of her head with one hand and kissed her fiercely.

By the end of the kiss, Bai Wanwan was panting for breath when she heard him say, "Bai Wanwan, you're truly something. It's only been over a year, and how many Beast Husbands do you have already? How many more do you plan to have?"

This was a trick question!

Bai Wanwan immediately shook her head with a beaming smile. "No more, no more. You few are already more than I can handle."

She indeed felt she had enough Beast Husbands now; if any more came, she wouldn't be able to handle or look after them all.

Her words clearly softened the sharp edge between Qiu Rong's brows.

"Is your anger gone? If it is, you should go back and rest. Don't forget you're still a patient; you need to recover properly."

Bai Wanwan supported him as they walked back, nagging all the way: "Your injuries are so heavy, don't go running around these next few days."

Qiu Rong didn't say another word, just quietly listened to her nagging.

Just as she helped him into the room, a commotion came from the main entrance.

"Brother Rong, why are you here? Are you hurt?"

Upon seeing that Qiu Rong was injured, Feng Xi immediately pushed aside the beastmen blocking her way and rushed in with her own Beast Husbands.

However, as she approached Qiu Rong, she was firmly blocked by Bai Wanwan.

"Move aside quickly, let me check on Brother Rong's injuries."

Not only did Bai Wanwan not move, she even crossed her arms and looked down her nose at her. "He is my Beast Husband, I will take care of him myself. You don't need to worry."

"So what if he's your Beast Husband? I am a Sacred Female. As long as Brother Rong likes me and is willing to go with me, it's none of your business."

Bai Wanwan smiled, her lips curling. "Then I'm quite sorry, but I am also a Sacred Female. You can't take him away!"

The expression on Feng Xi's face froze. "You... are also a Sacred Female?"

"Yes, so right now, this instant, stay away from my Beast Husband."

Feng Xi pouted aggrievedly and looked past her at Qiu Rong behind her. "Brother Rong, can I have a few words with you alone?"

"No!"

"Okay."

Bai Wanwan and Qiu Rong's voices rang out almost simultaneously.

Bai Wanwan whipped her head around. "What do you want to say to her?"

Qiu Rong's gaze swept over her face. "If I don't make it clear to her, she'll keep coming to bother you."

"You'll say it, and she'll listen?" Bai Wanwan huffed. "What if you say it and she keeps pestering you anyway?"

"She won't."

Bai Wanwan was somewhat unhappy, but then she thought about how she had several Beast Husbands; if Qiu Rong wanted anything to do with her, they would have been together long ago.

So, after giving Qiu Rong a look, she turned and walked straight away.

She sat on a Stone Stool in the distance, watching the two of them stand together and whisper.

She really wanted to prick up her ears to hear clearly, but no matter how she listened, she could only hear some vague words and couldn't make out what they were actually saying at all.

After a long time, Feng Xi's eyes turned red, and she turned and ran, not even having time to glare in her direction.

Just then, Qiu Rong's gaze swept over. Bai Wanwan pretended not to care at all and looked the other way.

But the sound of footsteps slowly approached, and soon, he sat down beside her.

"Angry?"

Bai Wanwan simply turned back and looked at him. "What did you just say to her?"
