Chapter 16: Marrying a New Beast Husband?

Shu Ning was speechless.

Can I choose another one?

What do you want?

"I want tissues, especially sanitary napkins."

"Sure," the system replied.

"A box of tissues and a box of sanitary napkins have been automatically delivered to your space."

Shu Ning was surprised that it actually worked.

With tissues, she no longer needed to use leaves.

Shu Ning, back in the cave, carefully pushed open the door.

But Xuanmo was nowhere to be seen.

The water in the basin has decreased somewhat.

The animal clothing that I had just placed by the bed was also gone.

It seems he has already gone back.

Sigh, do you really not want to stay here?

Shu Ning was depressed.

I just don't know how well his injuries are recovering.

I'd better go do something else.

After yesterday and this morning, she has used teleportation six times, so her current weight is... less than 400 pounds!

Let's say it's over three hundred and ninety, but we'll round it down to four hundred.

Still quite fat...

Shu Ning sighed.

Fortunately, the upgrade was postponed, otherwise the reduction would have been even slower.

Shu Ning took out the pearl powder and continued applying it.

She wants to lose weight and take care of her skin.

After applying the product, I opened the encyclopedia, and this time I finally remembered to look for salt.

After searching for a while, they finally found the nearest salt lake that was safe to eat directly. However, this place gave Shu Ning a bit of a headache.

She wanted to look again, since the route passed through the Black Bear tribe.

But many places I looked for were much farther away than this.

Let's tentatively settle on this place for now.

Shu Ning looked at the sunlight outside the cave.

It was already afternoon; we'll make plans for tomorrow.

Feeling a bit sleepy, Shu Ning decided to take a nap.

...

"Bang bang bang..."

Shu Ning, who had just woken up, heard someone knocking on the door.

I got up, opened the door, and took a look.

A handsome face came into view.

Under the sunlight, the man's silver hair was gilded with a layer of gold, like frost in winter.

Looking up at the man in front of her, Shu Ning's still somewhat dazed mind instantly cleared.

When Xuan Lin arrived, a hint of surprise flashed in his silver eyes—

When did this female install the door? He almost thought he had gone to the wrong place.

She had intended to cover her nose, but instead of a foul smell, Shu Ning smelled a faint fragrance when she opened the door.

But when he saw the infatuated look in her eyes, his expression instantly darkened.

Xuan Lin noticed that she was a little thinner than before, but the change was not significant.

He didn't care at all about the changes in her.

There's no difference between being fat and being a little fat.

"The Holy Mother is looking for you," he said coldly.

"Looking for me? What's up?" Shu Ning asked, puzzled. They had just met that morning.

"You'll find out when you get there," Xuan Lin said, and then turned to leave.

"Hey, wait for me!" Shu Ning hurriedly chased after her.

Shu Ning, walking behind Xuan Lin, struggled to keep up with him.

Shu Ning had intended to use teleportation, but fearing she would give herself away, she ended up walking with great effort instead.

Xuan Lin looked at Shu Ning behind him with disdain, who was struggling to walk due to her obesity, and quickened his pace, not wanting her to get close to him.

Upon arriving at her destination, Shu Ning was panting heavily.

He definitely did it on purpose.

"Ningning, you're here."

Mu Xia greeted them.

"Mother, is there something you need from me?"

She looked at the smile on Mu Xia's face, and at the tall Xiao Chong standing to the side.

"Ningning, what do you think of Xiao Chong?"

"Xiao Chong?" Shu Ning looked at him shyly.

Silver-gray hair, dark gray eyes, a defined jawline, and a cold, aloof face.

Standing at 1.9 meters tall, with a slender figure, well-defined muscles, and long legs...

There was a small scar on his right cheek, which made his already aloof aura even more ruthless.

Shu Ning was too afraid to look anymore.

"He's quite capable."

"Is it pretty?" Mu Xia asked.

"Ah, it's...it's quite pretty too." Shu Ning looked at Mu Xia curiously, blushing as she spoke.

"How about making him your beastly husband?"

Mu Xia looked at Shu Ning with a smile.

At this moment, Xiao Chong and Xuan Lin also looked at Shu Ning.

"Huh?" Shu Ning was shocked.

"If you have no objections, we'll hold the wedding for you tomorrow." Mu Xia's confident tone didn't sound like she was joking.

"No...no, no, Mother, this is too casual." Shu Ning looked at them awkwardly.

“This is not arbitrary at all; Mother has given it serious consideration,” Mu Xia said earnestly.

"What happened to you when you returned from the Jiao Clan a few days ago still terrifies your mother."

"Of your five beasts, four were your own choice, but if you encounter danger, who will care about you?"

“Xiao Chong has been with me for quite a while now. He is exceptionally capable and handsome, not inferior to any male in the tribe, and he has never been defeated by Xuan Lin. He is a leader among the younger generation. I also heard that when you went to the Jiao Clan, he offered to carry you on his back.”

“If it were any other beastman, who would be willing to do these things for you?”

"Moreover, most of your other beastmen are from other races, which makes the situation too uncertain."

Mu Xia wanted to find Shu Ning another beastman from her own clan, so that if the wolf clan was in danger, she would have more male members of her clan to protect her.

Parents who love their children plan far ahead for them.

Shu Ning was somewhat tempted by what she heard.

“Mo Li also has…” Shu Ning argued.

"I heard that the Xuanjing Stone you brought to the Jiao Clan cured his brother. Do you think he did this out of genuine affection or gratitude?"

"I..." Shu Ning had no way to defend herself.

She knew that Mo Li definitely didn't like her because of her.

"But Mother, you mustn't." Shu Ning didn't know what to say.

Xiao Chong is indeed a rare male.

"Did Xiao Chong agree? Did you ask him what he thought?" Shu Ning asked.

She knew Xiao Chong would definitely not agree.

“I have no objection,” Xiao Chong suddenly said.

At this moment, Shu Ning and Xuan Lin both looked at Xiao Chong in surprise.

Dude, what's so great about me looking like this?

"Are you serious?" Shu Ning couldn't believe her ears.

"Mm," Xiao Chong replied.

"Why?" Shu Ning asked, puzzled.

"I don't know," Xiao Chong replied.

"In short, being my female won't be a bad deal for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at him in disbelief.

The most shocked was Xuan Lin.

Does he like her?

What's so appealing about her? Is it her weight? Her ugliness? Or her lack of hygiene and her volatile temper?

Xuan Lin thought he must have been drugged by the fat female Shu Ning.

Mu Xia listened with satisfaction and smiled: "Ningning, what do you think?"

Shu Ning had a headache.

She looked at Xuan Lin, wanting to know what he was thinking.

"Mother, my beast husbands will have objections."

After saying that, he turned his attention to Xuan Lin, who was watching the drama unfold.

"I have no objection," Xuan Lin said coldly, without a trace of emotion.

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a strange sense of irritation welling up inside him.

Shu Ning felt a little disappointed when she heard his words.

Although there was no affection between them, his indifference still felt like a knife stabbing her heart.

"See, Ningning, your beast husband has no objections."

"Mother~" Shu Ning's voice was a little weak.

I felt provoked by Xuan Lin's words.

"Alright, since you have no objections, then I've decided to marry Xiao Chong as my beast husband today!" she said, looking at Xuan Lin's cold face.

Shu Ning regretted her words as soon as she finished speaking.

"Okay, let's hold the wedding tomorrow!" Mu Xia said happily.
