Everyone turned to look at Da Qing.

Da Qing's expression was complicated. He glanced at Su Tang and Lin Xia, then clenched his fists as if he was struggling with something.

But soon he let go, as if he had made a decision.

Daqing said to the gray wolf leader, "I'll leave on my own. Don't let them go."

"Daqing?!" Su Tang looked puzzled. He was the one who was so unwilling to leave back then, what's going on today?

This guy doesn't seem like a cowardly orc.

The others were also shocked, not understanding why Daqing suddenly said that.

After spending the last few days together, Lin Xia discovered that the boy was simple-minded and straightforward, with no guile whatsoever. Their impression of Da Qing changed considerably.

Hearing him say he was leaving now is still a bit unbelievable.

After Daqing finished speaking, he turned to Sutang and dropped another bombshell.

“A-Tang, actually, I am not your partner, and I am not the father of the cubs. I don’t know them at all.”

He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and finished speaking in one breath.

I'm afraid that if I hesitate even for a moment, I'll regret it.

He really didn't want to go back to that desolate forest, but he also didn't want to see Ah Tang's family driven away because of him.

Upon hearing this, everyone except Su Tang was shocked.

"Daqing, what did you say? If you're not the cub's father, then who is the cub's father?" Lin Xia asked in surprise.

It turns out they took in a fake; this kid actually tricked them.

Su Guodong's face was full of confusion as he pressed for an answer:

"What exactly is going on?"

He glanced at his daughter, his face showing no surprise whatsoever, clearly indicating that he already knew about this.

Daqing shook his head. "I don't know either. When I met Atang, she only agreed to be my partner, but nothing happened between us. When I came back from hunting, Atang was already gone."

"I searched for Atang for almost two months before I found this place. I don't know anything else."

He honestly told them everything he knew.

"Then why do you want to be my partner, instead of forcibly taking me back to the forest, but coming back with me?" Su Tang seized the opportunity to ask.

Da Qing scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed:

“I…I want an orc to talk to. It’s so boring living in the forest with just one orc. I also want to know what it’s like to live with an orc…”

He was said to be lonely, empty, and cold, yet he had absolutely no interest in romantic relationships.

If you say he isn't, then he really is "lonely".

Hearing this, everyone felt ashamed.

This idiot... he just wants a partner to talk to?

Su Tang's lips twitched. She didn't know what to say to Da Qing. Weren't wandering beastmen supposed to be wicked and heinous villains? To her, Da Qing seemed like a complete idiot.

It turns out that he pretended to be the cub's father just for this reason.

What shocked Su Tang even more was that A Tang had agreed to become Da Qing's partner one second, and then ran off to have cubs with other beastmen the next!

For a moment, she didn't know whether to complain about Daqing first or about "herself".

The gray wolf orc heard Daqing's words.

Wolfman cursed inwardly, thinking that this little bitch was really promiscuous, finding so many males as soon as she ran away. It was absolutely right that she didn't let Wolf Kui mate with her.

Daqing said firmly to the gray wolf leader, "I'm going back to the forest now, and I won't come back again. Don't make things difficult for Atang and the others."

After saying that, he looked at his thatched hut with some reluctance, then turned to leave.

Upon hearing this, a hint of joy flashed in the eyes of the gray wolf leader.

Unexpectedly, the wandering orc left on his own initiative, which saved him a lot of trouble.

Wolf Kui has made great contributions to the tribe recently. If he had to choose between himself and Su Tang, he would definitely choose to protect Wolf Kui.

No matter how precious a female is, she is not as important as the future of the entire tribe.

However, he would be happy to keep Su Tang as well.

After all, Su Tang is a female, and it's not a bad thing for the tribe to have another female.

Su Tang and the rest of the Su family exchanged glances. After receiving a look of approval, she called out to Da Qing, "Wait!"

Wolfman frowned. What was this little bitch up to now?

Su Tang looked directly at the Gray Wolf leader, her gentle voice showing no sign of stage fright, "Leader, we've made up our minds, we'll leave here together."

Upon hearing this, not only Wolfman, but also the other gray wolf beastmen were dumbfounded.

Has this female lost her mind?!

She actually wants to leave this place for a wandering orc? That's utterly absurd!

The leader of the gray wolves was even more displeased; Su Tang's words were a slap in the face to him.

He would rather go to the forest than stay here; does that mean he thinks his gray wolf tribe is so despicable?

So many young and outstanding gray wolf orcs are no match for a single wandering orc?

"A-Tang, you guys..." Da Qing was stunned, looking at Su Tang and the others with disbelief.

Su Tang gave him a reassuring look and smiled, "This is not a decision made by an orc."

Su Shiwei touched the bridge of her nose, her voice gentle and pleasant, "We didn't leave for you, we just don't want some shameless orcs to come and cause trouble again and again."

Wolfman's face turned green with anger. "Who are you calling shameless?"

Su Shiwei completely ignored her, which made Lang Man so angry that she almost had a heart attack.

The gray wolf leader asked with a grim expression, "A-Tang, are you really sure you want to leave this place? Is it worth it for this wandering orc?"

Su Tang chuckled, "Compared to the Gray Wolf Tribe, it's certainly worth it."
