99: Chapter 99 Don't Try to Hide It From Me

Did Xin Feng search the entire night and still not find him?

Time passed little by little. The Cubs woke up. When they didn't see their Father Beast and Mother in the call, they all ran out from the inner room.

Upon seeing Bai Wanwan at the doorway, they cried out 'Wuwu' and rushed over, circling around her feet.

She bent down, scooped up The Cubs, and walked toward the room.

The Cubs squirmed in her arms. Bai Wanwan had no choice but to first transform into her Beast Form to feed a few of The Cubs.

Recently, The Cubs had been forced by their Father Beast to eat meat, so they rarely approached their Mother.

They scrambled and snatched, emitting 'gurgling' sounds of guarding food and satisfaction.

After feeding the few Cubs, Bai Wanwan became even busier, constantly having to catch The Cubs who ran to the doorway and bring them back.

Sigh, raising one Cub is hard enough, yet she gave birth to five at once.

There might be many more litters in the future.

Just as she was about to be completely exhausted, Shi Hua's voice came from outside the door.

"Sister..."

Bai Wanwan's scalp loosened. She immediately dropped The Cubs in the nest and stood up. "Is that Shi Hua?"

"It's me, Sister. Can I come in?"

"If you're here, just come in."

Shi Hua cautiously stepped inside and immediately saw the room filled to the brim with decorations.

Because she had points, besides spending them on bedding and furniture, Bai Wanwan also bought some ornaments.

The entire Stone House was decorated by her to be cozy and beautiful.

Shi Hua had never seen such a beautiful room. The flowers and strange branches hanging on the wall were incredibly lovely; she had never seen anything like them.

"Shi Hua, quickly help me stop that Cub."

Bai Wanwan was panting. Just as she dropped one off, she saw another running out.

Shi Hua immediately looked down and saw a very sturdy little wolf rush to her feet, about to run past her toward the door.

Shi Hua was not delicate like other Females. The speed and agility honed from being chased and bullied by Females since childhood allowed her to scoop up the Cub with just a bend of her waist.

She carried the Cub toward her, and along the way, she scooped up another Cub attempting to escape.

"Thank goodness you came. I'm about to be driven crazy by these few Cubs."

Shi Hua smiled sheepishly. "Then you rest for a while. I'll help you."

"That would be great. You watch them, and I'll go check the doorway."

Actually, she hadn't slept all night, and after chasing The Cubs for half a day, she was now tired, hungry, and sleepy.

However, the matter weighing on her mind prevented her from resting peacefully.

Dragging her feet, she walked weakly to the doorway and peered outside.

An entire night had passed, yet Xin Feng and Zhu Xiu still hadn't returned. What exactly happened?

After standing at the door for a while, Bai Wanwan was too hungry to bear it.

She had no choice but to return to the room first.

She reheated the leftover meat from yesterday and put it on a stone plate.

"Shi Hua, I'm closing the door. You can come out now. Don't worry about those few Cubs anymore."

"Oh, okay."

After a while, Shi Hua walked out holding two Cubs. She smelled a very fragrant aroma, and her stomach, which wasn't even hungry, suddenly felt very hungry.

Bai Wanwan beckoned to her. "There's still leftover meat from yesterday. Come and help me eat some."

Originally, the amount she fried wasn't enough for her two Males, but since both hadn't eaten yesterday, there was so much left that she couldn't possibly finish it by herself.

Shi Hua suppressed her craving, shook her head, and turned her gaze away. "I already ate."

"Even if you ate, have a little more."

She had seen many Females, and Shi Hua was the only one so thin with such a small frame.

In the Beast World, most Females were favored; they didn't have to do anything, as Males would bring food right to their mouths.

Only Females with extremely low fertility might starve.

She didn't even need to ask about Shi Hua's experience; she could guess that the other might be a Female with low fertility, just like the original owner.

She got up, took The Cubs she was holding, dropped them onto the floor, pulled Shi Hua down to sit, "Just pretend you're keeping me company while I eat. I have no appetite right now either. Watching you eat might help me eat more."

She had to watch The Cubs and couldn't leave.

If she left, where could she go to find them? She wasn't a Male blessed with Talent.

Besides worrying here, she had no other options.

She could only adjust her mindset and comfort herself that her two Males possessed high-level Talent, so she didn't need to be overly anxious.

Shi Hua's arrival truly helped her relax a lot.

At first, Shi Hua didn't dare to eat too much, but the taste was truly too good. She couldn't resist, eating one piece after another, and accidentally ate too much.

"I... I ate it all."

Shi Hua blushed. Food was so precious, yet she had eaten all of what she made.

"If it's eaten, it's eaten. Is it not enough? I can make you something else to eat."

While speaking, Bai Wanwan was actually still a bit distracted.

She turned her head and realized Shi Hua's eyes were red, staring at her without blinking.

Bai Wanwan was startled. "What's wrong with you?"

Shi Hua pouted. Her not-so-pretty face showed a kind of simple, honest cuteness.

"Since I was little, no Beast Person has ever been this kind to me... Wuwu..."

Bai Wanwan's heart, which had drifted away, was pulled back by her, leaving her with a look of exasperated amusement.

But because she had merged with the original owner's memories after transmigrating, she could understand and empathize with Shi Hua's feelings.

She reached out and patted her shoulder. "That's because they were bad. Look how good you are; you protect my Cubs, you let me go first when there's danger, and you helped me watch The Cubs just now. Conversely, you are the best Female I have ever met among the Beast People."

Shi Hua immediately forgot about crying, her teary eyes widening. "Really?"

"Really. Others bullying you isn't because you're bad. Your birth and fertility aren't things you can decide. On the contrary, a vicious Female like Mu Shan is truly detestable. However, when she meets someone even more vicious than her, like me, she can only endure it."

Shi Hua blushed and mumbled, "No, you... you are not a vicious Female."

"Silly Shi Hua, I'm not like this with other Females. When facing vicious Females, I have to be even more vicious than they are."

While talking to her, Bai Wanwan had already glanced toward the closed main door five times.

Shi Hua finally noticed something was wrong. "Sister, what are you looking at?"

Bai Wanwan voiced her worries. "My two Beast Husbands went out, and they still haven't come back. I'm a little worried."

Shi Hua immediately said, "I'll go help you look! I'm very familiar with the surroundings."

Bai Wanwan immediately shook her head. "That won't do. It's dangerous outside. You are a Female; you can't just leave the Tribe."

Shi Hua lowered her voice and said, "Actually, I often go out to find food. I'm very familiar with this area, truly."

Just as she was speaking, the stone door was pushed open from the outside.

The few Cubs who were trying to sneak out were startled and jumped back.

After steadying themselves and seeing it was their Father Beast, they immediately rushed forward again.

Bai Wanwan also stood up from the stool and walked toward him, peering out the door.

"Still didn't find him?"

Xin Feng's expression was somewhat grave. "Found him."

Bai Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief, leaned forward to look outside again. "Then where is he?"

"He can't come back for the time being during this period. Don't worry."

Bai Wanwan stared at his face. "Are you hiding something from me?"

Xin Feng reached out and took her hand into his palm. "I'm not hiding anything; I was afraid you would worry."

"Not telling me makes me worry more. Did something happen to Zhu Xiu? Tell me everything right now."
