After several twists and turns, in the height of summer, we finally found a stream where we could take a bath, and along the way we even encountered a locust tree whose top was nowhere in sight.

She was stunned when she saw it; it was as big as a lotus root. She grabbed two plus-sized soap pods, just the right amount for bathing and washing clothes.

She found a large rock, stood behind it, cleaned the ginseng thoroughly, and carefully placed it away.

After looking around to make sure no one was around, she took off her clothes, washed them, and laid them out to dry on a large rock.

After hanging the clothes out to dry, squat down on the spot and soak them in water to wash them.

The original owner had never taken a bath, and with a gentle rub, a thick, long strip of mud would form.

Midsummer: ...Disgusting!

It took a lot of effort to use up one giant soap pod before it was completely clean.

Although her hands were a little rough after washing, they had an even, flawless skin tone, even whiter than the wheat-colored skin of the females in the tribe.

Is this a perk of not showering for years?

When the water calms, the height of summer bows its head.

On the clear water, the girl's wet hair was draped around her ears, and her eyes were bright and lovely.

She's just too thin; she looks like a naive, underage girl.

Her short, black hair was so messy it was unbearable to look at. In the sweltering summer, she used her fingers as a comb, breaking many strands of hair before finally tidying it up.

After cleaning up, the clothes on the stone were completely dry, and the smell of sunshine mixed with the fragrance of soap pods was pleasant to smell.

After getting dressed, I felt incredibly refreshed and comfortable, but the lack of underwear made me feel very uncomfortable. In the sweltering summer, I tried to ignore the emptiness there and walked back as if nothing was wrong.

The journey back was equally difficult.

"What a fragrant female, I wonder what kind of beast she is."

"Hey, have any new females arrived in the tribe recently?"

"No, the trade fair lasts for several months. Besides, rare females aren't something you can just find anytime you want."

"You're dreaming. Do you think new females can just appear out of thin air?"

Unlike when they came, on the way back, the group of males not only didn't avoid them, but were also enthusiastic and proactive.

Several males deliberately flexed their muscles nearby, and as they walked, one could inadvertently catch a glimpse of the astonishing sight beneath the animal skin skirts.

It's all a vacuum!

After walking all the way, even in the sweltering summer heat, I felt numb.

To think that she, a medical student who's always busy as a dog, hasn't even been in a relationship yet, has already seen so many different kinds of big birds.

Oh, it might not be a big bird. She just saw a small bird that looked quite unique.

Orcs spend their lives hunting and fighting, so they are all tall and strong, and perfect eight-pack abs seem to be the standard for males in the beast world.

"Little female, are you from another tribe? I've never seen you before."

"Why are you alone? Where is your partner?"

The eager males were still watching from the sidelines, while the bolder ones had already stepped forward to stop her and try to strike up a conversation.

The girl raised her eyebrows, looked at the group of handsome men of all shapes and sizes, and said with a mischievous smile, "I am Sheng Xia."

Several males were dazzled by her smile and were stunned for a moment before they realized that she was Sheng Xia.

That dirty and ugly summer!

Everyone around her stared wide-eyed at her in astonishment.

This really feels like the height of summer!

After not seeing her for a few days, she suddenly became so cute, and she even had a faint fragrance about her. I really wanted to hold her in my arms and kiss her.

Suddenly, a noisy commotion broke out.

"Ah! You lowly male, you've dirtied my shoes!" A sharp voice rang out, mixed with a few cold groans.

It was Fengdie and Long Yue, who was beaming with joy, with a slender and tall young man beside them.

The boy had extremely fair skin, was over two meters tall, and had a very straight back, making him appear somewhat thin. His peach blossom eyes possessed a captivating beauty.

Looking back in the height of summer, he saw the female lead with flushed cheeks, her animal skin skirt loosely draped over her body, and her neck covered in ambiguous pink and purple marks.

Looking at Long Yue's refreshed and satisfied expression, she realized that the two of them had just finished doing something bad.

Seeing the female lead looking so satisfied, Sheng Xia couldn't help but sigh, "As expected of one of the male leads, he's really good in that area."

"Tell me, how are you going to compensate me?"

Fengdie raised her hand but hesitated to lower it. Her eyes flickered as she looked at his almost perfect face and couldn't bring herself to do it.

Damn it! That ominous orc is so good-looking!

The boy straightened his back, his messy black hair falling over his forehead, and his face was pale and somewhat sickly.

His body was covered in wounds, which made his fair skin appear even more gruesome, giving him an indescribable sense of vulnerability.

"I will compensate you." The boy's clear, cold voice rang out, his eyes icy cold.

After saying that, he turned and left, glancing at Sheng Xia out of the corner of his eye. Blood dripped down her pale, jade-like face, and her wisps of hair fell across her forehead, making her look lonely and vulnerable.

I watched the whole thing without even realizing it in the middle of summer; this young man was breathtakingly beautiful.

The female lead in the original book doesn't seem to have this kind of character setting, right?

In the sweltering heat of summer, I'm starving and feeling a bit dizzy, so I don't have time to think much.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, she followed her memory and walked back.

A golden-haired lion-orc's eyes lit up when he saw Sheng Xia: "These are freshly peeled sweet apricots, they're very fresh, would you like to try some?"

He handed her the pitted and peeled fruit he had just prepared.

In the height of summer, one can almost smell the sweet aroma of fruit.

My stomach is growling even louder!

Her eyes were fixed on the fruit, and she asked softly, "What do I need to trade with you?"

Suddenly, a pair of hands reached out from the side: "Eat mine, no need to exchange, I'll give it to you."

In the height of summer, Sheng Xia subconsciously looked over and saw a peacock-like beastman with brown hair and blue eyes, also holding a bright yellow fruit in his hand.

It looks like a giant apricot!

A perfectly timed smile graced his handsome face: "There's no need for you to change. Picking fruit for the females is what we males should do."

"Little female, you can eat mine. It doesn't have a pit, so you can eat it directly." The blond orc's deliberately soft voice was deep and magnetic.

He tilted his head slightly, a gentle breeze blowing, and the wisps of hair on his forehead fluttered in the wind, making him look sunny and carefree.

After finishing speaking, Aoki turned to look at Kong Ling, who had brown hair and blue eyes, and his gaze turned cold: "Didn't you and Fengdie like each other? What are you doing?"

Upon hearing the name Fengdie, Shengxia instinctively moved away from Kong Ling; it's best to stay away from the female lead's man.

With a smile, Sheng Xia said, "Thank you all. I'm not hungry. I'll be going now. You all keep chatting!"

As she spoke those words, Shengxia felt her heart bleed. She was starving, so hungry she was itching for food!

Aoki and Kong Ling, who remained where they were, disliked each other and turned to walk in the opposite direction.

Despite the blazing sun, a cool breeze blew constantly under the shade of the trees, making it not too hot.

In the height of summer, she walked slowly back, avoiding people along the way, and managed to get back safely.

At this moment, the area around the small thatched house is clean and odorless. The fence has been reinforced and looks sturdy and clean.

A foundation of stones was built at the base of the wall, and there was a small stove next to it, which already had the beginnings of a small home.

Sheng Xia was overjoyed. Her eyes lit up and she quickly walked into the room. She saw Wolf King sitting on the edge of the newly made wooden bed, weaving a mat with rattan in his hand.

"Wolf King, I'm back!"
