Mu Youran subconsciously reached out to touch it, and in just one touch, she felt its soft, fluffy texture.

She screamed in fright, jumped up, and ran towards the shore: "Ah~!"

Huang Yu, who was standing by, heard the soft rustling sounds of Mu Youran taking a bath. Her mind was wandering, and she was imagining all sorts of scenes when she heard Mu Youran's cry.

He immediately turned around, but before he knew it, he saw her holding a white animal skin to her chest and running towards him quickly.

Her skin was smooth and supple, her figure was shapely and exquisite, and her long legs were running on the grass. Her face showed a look of fear and terror, and one glance was enough to arouse a desire to protect her.

It wasn't until Mu Youran ran to his side in fear that he came to his senses.

He asked nervously, "What's wrong?"

"There are bugs!"

Mu Youran pointed fearfully into the river: "I was just washing clothes when I felt something fall in. When I touched it, I found it was a bug. How disgusting!"

"I feel like my hands don't even belong to me anymore!"

Huang Yu noticed that after being startled, she became much more talkative, which meant she was genuinely frightened.

She walked over to the reeds by the river to check, and as soon as she got there, she saw the green worm that she had swatted flat and landed on the river.

Mu Youran followed and also discovered the dead insect. Although it was dead, just one look at it made her feel scared and disgusted.

She's not afraid of snakes or cats, but she's terrified of dogs and insects, especially squishy insects, which she finds really disgusting.

"Stop looking, it's disgusting!"

Huang Yu was amused by her dawdling. He had never seen a female so afraid of insects before.

Even such a small insect is something some of the females in the tribe would catch and eat, but she's so afraid of it.

He wanted to reach out and comfort her, but found that she was completely naked, so he couldn't do anything.

With lowered eyes and a slight smile, he said, "Why don't you... put on the animal skin first?"

Only then did Mu Youran realize that she was completely naked. Startled, she immediately squatted down and covered her body with her wet shirt dress.

"Turn around!"

Huang Yu realized that this female was a bit timid and thin-skinned!

She turned around and said, "Don't wear the wet animal skin skirt. I'll get you some animal skin to wrap yourself in first, and then I'll make you some clothes when we get back."

He handed her a piece of yellowish-brown animal hide, which Mu Youran carefully took; she didn't want to get sick.

I took a cold shower tonight, which is unusual for me. If I wear wet clothes again, I'm sure I'll get sick.

To get sick in such a world is tantamount to courting death.

She doesn't want to die!

"Thanks!"

She took the animal skin, wrapped it around herself, and gripped the seam tightly with both hands to keep it from falling off.

Huang Yu took the wet clothes from her hands and carried a large pile of clean animal hides on her back.

The two went back one after the other.

However, before they even reached the village, they suddenly heard rapid breathing coming from the nearby woods.

Mu Youran turned her head curiously and saw three black animal shadows playing happily around a female on the ground.

She turned her head away after just one glance—damn curiosity!

She knew exactly what it was about, but she couldn't help but take a look, only to find it a bit shocking!

She secretly looked up, wanting to see what Huang Yu's expression was, but all she saw was his tall back; she didn't see his face.

Back in the cave, Huang Yu laid the animal hide on top and then rummaged through a wooden box next to it to find a large piece of thin cloth to spread on top as well.

"Now it won't be hot at night!"

Mu Youran stood there blankly to the side. The light in the cave was so dim that she couldn't see what he was holding.

Hearing this, she curiously walked over and touched it, immediately exclaiming in surprise.

"This is cloth!"

You know?

Huang Yu turned to look at her curiously. She had spent a hundred seashells to buy this in Yunmengze!

At the time, I just thought it was novel and nice. After bringing it back, I kept it at the bottom of the box and never used it. I only tore off a corner to use as a handkerchief.

It's perfect for You Ran. He discovered last night that You Ran is very sensitive to heat and was sweating all night.

Mu Youran leaned closer to examine it carefully and realized that the hemp rope used in the multi-layered cloth shoes her grandmother used to make for her was the same thing!

"Yes, this is made of ramie. It's very cool to wear in the summer!"

Huang Yu didn't find her answer strange. The white dress You Ran was wearing felt much softer than the linen, and it was obviously something better than linen.

With a smirk, she said, "Then I'll make you a set of clothes at home tomorrow."

"ah?"

Still reeling from the shock of the hemp cloth, Mu Youran was puzzled when she heard this.

Looking up, I met his gentle gaze, and many questions filled my mind.

He was able to kill Longtooth in one move, which shows that he was very strong, and he was also so good-looking and had such a gentle temperament.

He seems like the perfect man.

She didn't think this kind of man had much charm that could attract him to fall in love at first sight.

However, this male's inner feelings told him that she was truly moved.

His hand unconsciously gripped the animal hide as he voiced the question that had been nagging at him.

Why did you choose me?

Huang Yu took in all her little movements, her beautiful, crescent-shaped eyebrows furrowing together.

He couldn't help but reach out to smooth her out: "Because you are the first person to respect me."

Mu Youran was a little confused, blinked her eyes, and looked bewildered.

Huang Yu smiled slightly, knowing that she hadn't understood what she meant: "You are the first person to say thank you to me."

Not only that, she was actually the first female to arouse his desire.

That's why he likes her, but he knows he can't say it. If he does, the little female in front of him will probably become shy and embarrassed.

"oh!"

Upon hearing this explanation, Mu Youran didn't know what to say, since she didn't know anything about Huang Yu's past.

Her slightly pouting lips made Huang Yu's mouth feel dry.

There were only the two of them in the entire cave. The night outside was very quiet, and the two of them could hear each other's breathing as long as they didn't speak.

The dim lighting emboldened him; he raised his hand to caress her slender shoulder and gently placed a kiss on her shoulder.

“You Ran, my name is Huang Yu, call me by my name.”

The seductive voice instantly captivated Mu Youran, who was already somewhat tempted.

She looked up and met his narrow, phoenix-shaped eyes: "Huang Yu."

The gentle voice was like a pebble falling into Huang Yu's heart, instantly creating a thousand waves.

He had only wanted to hear a female call his name, but what he heard made his legs move forward uncontrollably, and he suddenly lowered his head and kissed her deeply.

At this moment, Mu Youran felt weak and powerless all over, and her hands, which had been tightly gripping the animal hide, loosened at some point.

The moonlight outside was bright and shone into the cave. I only peeked at it once before shyly running into the clouds.

Only a shy red halo remained in the sky.

It didn't disappear until the sun began to show its pale light in the east.
