47: Chapter 47 Brother Ox, you are so strong!

"Cough, cough... cough, cough... cough!" The little fox was almost choked to death by the black porcelain fruit.

He coughed for a long while before spitting out half of it.

"Eat slowly, don't rush." Tang Ruan gently patted his back.

Was he choked because he was eating too fast?

All Female Beastmen in the world are the same; when they see a handsome Male Beastman, they want to make him their own.

She hadn't even seen his human form!

The little fox suddenly jumped far away.

His body crouched low, staring at Tang Ruan.

Tang Ruan suddenly realized, was he afraid of her?

The little fox let out a threatening cry.

Tang Ruan: It seemed she was being treated as a "creepy uncle" by the fox?

In the Beast World, there were indeed many Female Beastmen who actively harassed Male Beastmen.

Tang Ruan took the initiative to retreat back to the campfire.

"I was just looking at you because you look very much like one of my fox-clan Beast Husbands."

The little fox looked at her wrist.

On her wrist was a bright red Beast Husband Mark—a wolf tooth!

It wasn't from their fox clan.

Tang Ruan felt the embarrassment of having her lie exposed, although—she hadn't lied!

Lang Lie was real.

Then, the other Beast Husbands who appeared in her dreams should also be real.

Tang Ruan pursed her lips.

"What I meant was, I once dreamed of a little fox as beautiful as you, who was my Beast Husband."

The little fox's eyes were full of disdain.

Tang Ruan: ...

Tang Ruan turned around, faced the wall, and felt emo...

He must have taken her for a pervert.

She said to the wall, "When your wounds are healed and you turn back into your human form, tell me where this is and how to leave. I need to find my Beast Husband, Lang Lie. Then, we will go our separate ways!"

The little fox gave a light huff, which counted as agreement.

In the following days, the two worked together.

The little fox was responsible for hunting.

After his wounds had mostly recovered, he never returned empty-handed.

Pheasants, wild rabbits, wild mountain sparrows...

After Tang Ruan's simple cooking, both of them ate until their bellies were round.

Tang Ruan was responsible for gathering.

Besides the medicinal herbs to treat the little fox, she also discovered many magical plants here.

There was a type of pink flower called a 'Spring Flower,' with a texture like a rubber pouch, about the size of a fist.

It was perfect for storing the strange and peculiar plants she encountered.

She hung them around her waist, wrapping a whole circle around, looking like a little flower garland.

That night, Hu Che finally turned back into his human form.

Outside the cave, there was thunder and lightning.

A small beast passed by, glanced into the cave, saw the awake Hu Che, and hurriedly fled.

Hu Che walked out, moved a few large stones, and blocked the cave entrance.

When he returned, he discovered that Tang Ruan, who had originally been sleeping by the campfire, had run to the corner.

She was curled into a ball, her head pressed against the stone wall, shivering.

"Hey! Aren't you cold?"

Tang Ruan didn't pay attention to him, instead burying her head even lower.

Suddenly, he heard low sobbing sounds.

"Lang Lie, don't go! Don't chase after them anymore... I don't want you to go anymore... It's all my fault, it's all my fault... Baby! Why is Baby gone! Baby... my Baby..."

Hu Che stood in the distance, silently watching her.

So, her Beast Husband and Baby had both died?

That made sense; otherwise, how could a Female Beastman come to such a dangerous place alone?

However, she said she wanted to find her Beast Husband, Lang Lie.

Perhaps, they were just missing.

Hu Che walked over. "Tang Ruan!"

The thunder drowned out his voice.

Tang Ruan's body shuddered with the thunder, looking extremely pitiful.

Hu Che took a deep breath.

He crouched down, one hand passing behind her neck, the other under her knees, wanting to carry her back to the campfire.

But when he prepared to stand up, he discovered that her hands were tightly gripping a protruding rock on the stone wall.

She must have mistaken that rock for her Beast Husband.

If he used any more force, she would definitely wake up.

If she saw him proactively holding her, she would surely misunderstand something...

Hu Che withdrew his hand.

Forget it, she wouldn't die anyway.

But in the middle of the night...

"So hot..."

"Hey! Don't pull at your clothes!"

"So cold..."

"Tang Ruan! Don't crawl into the fire!"

In the end, he could only use his back to block her behind the campfire.

Tang Ruan was trembling like a sieve.

It was over, she seemed to be very seriously ill.

Would she die?

After a while, Tang Ruan stopped moving completely.

She probably wasn't asleep now, but had fainted!

After a series of internal struggles, Hu Che transformed into his Beast Form.

After recovering his Energy, his Beast Form was much larger than an ordinary animal.

His long red fur shimmered with a golden light in the firelight.

Hu Che draped his big, fluffy tail over Tang Ruan.

"I'll just cover you for a little while."

Hu Che lay by the campfire, initially sleeping cautiously and feeling somewhat nervous.

Because he had never placed his tail on a Female Beastman before.

But later, as he tossed and turned in a half-dream state, Tang Ruan took the opportunity to burrow into his arms.

"So fluffy... Lang Lie, this tiger skin is so comfortable..."

"You're the one who's a stinky tiger, get lost—"

Seeing the little Female Beastman in his arms, a rare smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

His heart softened inexplicably.

Hu Che swallowed the words that were about to follow.

Forget it, considering she treated his wounds.

He would push her away before dawn tomorrow!

"I was wondering why I couldn't find either of them? So, the two of you were hiding here mating!"

Tang Ruan was woken up by the voice.

She opened her eyes.

She saw a handsome youth being pressed against the wall by a Bull-beast.

She was quickly tied up tightly.

The Bull-beast carried her on his shoulder and walked in front.

A Weasel Beast led the bound Hu Che, following behind.

The Weasel Beast complained, "You might as well carry both, then we could walk faster."

"The little Female Beastman smells good; whoever wants to carry the Stinky Fox can do it."

The Weasel Beast looked impatiently at Hu Che, who was a head taller than him.

Forget it, just consider it a walk.

"Big Brother Bull-beast, can you please untie my hands..." Tang Ruan said in a coquettish, high-pitched voice.

Hu Che slipped, nearly falling over, and got goosebumps all over.

"Little Female Beastman, acting coquettishly with your Bull-beast Brother is useless. If you really took a fancy to me, I could actually be your Beast Husband, heh heh heh heh..."

He had never seen such a soft and sweet little Female Beastman in his life.

She even smelled good.

Just carrying her made him have thoughts of mating.

"Hey! Stop dreaming! She will definitely be able to trade for a lot of things! The boss won't give her to you; you only deserve that cow in the suburbs."

The Bull-beast huffed.

He looked genuinely angry, but was unable to refute it.

The boss definitely wouldn't give such a beautiful little Female Beastman to a Low-level Beastman like him.

"Since there is no fate for me to become Big Brother Bull-beast's Mistress, then being able to touch Big Brother Bull-beast's muscular chest would satisfy me!"

Hu Che's mouth twitched.

How had he not noticed that she was this kind of Female Beastman!

He was so close to her just last night.

Thinking about it made him fearful; it was simply too dangerous!

"Alright then..." The Bull-beast put Tang Ruan on the ground and untied the ropes on her hands.

He switched to carrying her in a princess carry.

Tang Ruan tapped on his rock-like chest muscles.

"Ahhh! Bull-beast Brother, you are truly so strong! I like it so much!"

Hu Che: ...

"Hahahaha!" The Bull-beast laughed up at the sky.

Tang Ruan looked at him with admiration, but her hand was already reaching toward her waist.
