"Your headband looks great."
Chu Liangyu turned the words on his lips into a compliment.
Xiang Qiancheng was obviously stunned for a moment, but it was only for a moment. He took off the headband on his head and said, "If the lady likes it, then I will give it to you."
His forehead was full, white and smooth, exactly the same skin color as his face, without any color difference as Chu Liangyu had imagined.
But after removing the decoration, he still looks a little different. If he looks like a gentle and elegant gentleman when wearing a headband, then after taking it off, it is more like he has been freed from some kind of restraint, which makes people feel fearful.
Chu Liangyu's thoughts paused slightly. Wasn't he wearing a headband not for decoration, but to hide his incompetence?
Before she could think any further, Xiang Qiancheng had already come close to her and carefully put the headband on her head.
The headband is equivalent to Xiang Qiancheng's identity symbol. Everyone in the tribe knows that if they see a male wearing a headband, he is the leader's seventh beast husband. Now that it is worn on Chu Liangyu's head, it has some meaning of declaring sovereignty.
Xiang Qiancheng felt a faint sense of joy and satisfaction in his heart. He stared at the forehead bandage for a long time, then lowered his head and said in a very serious tone: "You look better with it."
Apart from the hairpin Feng Qiwu gave her after she came out of the black market last time, this was the second time she received something from her beastly husband.
Thinking of this, Chu Liangyu subconsciously touched the hairpin in her hair, and Feng Qiwu's somewhat awkward expression at that time appeared in front of her eyes, and she couldn't help but find it a little funny.
Xiang Qiancheng noticed her movements and saw the hairpin. His eyelids drooped slightly, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just said, "The female master is right. I should go and help."
"Okay, go ahead."
There was no trace of reluctance on Chu Liangyu's face. Instead, she said goodbye to him with a faint smile.
Xiang Qiancheng put the fruit plate back to its original place and left.
It was indeed his height and long legs that gave him the advantage, as he had already walked far away in just a few steps.
Chu Liangyu thought he would continue to pester her for a long time, but she didn't expect him to leave so suddenly and decisively, which surprised her a little.
Xiang Qiancheng had his considerations. If he did not participate at all, then during the meal, he would be the one farthest away from Chu Liangyu, and this was almost beyond doubt.
Chu Liangyu held the end of her headband in her hand, wondering whether to wear it or not, when a shadow fell in front of her eyes. She called out to her awkwardly, "Madam, I'm back."
"That's great, come and have dinner with us."
Seeing Chi Chongrui's gaze fall on the headband in her hand, Chu Liangyu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. She coughed, trying to divert his attention, and asked him, "Have you found any strange behavior from him?"
"Yes." Chi Chongrui frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "He often prints some strange patterns on wooden hairpins or animal skins. The carvings are very beautiful, and then he gives them to single females for free."
"Then what was their reaction?" Chu Liangyu sat up and asked.
"They really like his things, and some even want him to be their first bestial husband."
"But he didn't agree. He said he only wanted to be with one person for the rest of his life and didn't want other orcs to share their wives with him."
Chu Liangyu didn't feel surprised at all, he just found it a little funny.
There are orcs who pursue monogamy. The Qingqiu Fox Clan in the tribe is a vivid example. However, they all have the blood of some ancient clans, are powerful, and have extremely high requirements for females.
It is also because of this that they are able to take care of their own females and prevent other male orcs from coveting them.
But Chu Liangyu saw last time that Zhao Zeming was just an ordinary Golden Lion orc, and he didn't have any powerful means.
If he only relies on some small tricks to please others, he will only become a clown who overestimates his own abilities and may even attract the targeting of other male orcs.
"He does have some naivete in him. There's no danger at the moment. As for what happens next, just let others keep an eye on it. You don't have to do it yourself."
"good."
After Chi Chongrui answered what she wanted to know, he lowered his gaze to the white headband, his eyebrows wrinkled uncontrollably, and then said, "It will be inconvenient to eat with it on, take it off."
He didn't say anything unkind because he knew it would upset her.
Besides, there were so many reasons to ask her not to wear it, there was no need for him to choose such a stupid method.
"That's true."
Chu Liangyu thought of the scene where the headband slipped off Xiang Qiancheng's neck and shoulders. If that happened during dinner, she would definitely be furious.
After thinking for a moment, she wrapped the headband around her left wrist.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she actually thought it looked pretty good and couldn't help but look at it several times.
There were already many things on her wrist, one was a storage bracelet, and another was a bracelet made from a trident, but after wrapping it around her, it added a different kind of beauty.
Chu Liangyu fiddled with it for a long time and moved the bracelet to her right hand. It now looked more harmonious, and she stopped with satisfaction.
Chi Chongrui looked at her for a long time without saying anything, just thinking about one thing: should he also give her something?
He also wanted to see the same smile Chu Liangyu had just had, but not because of other people's things, but because of his.
"Madam, everything is ready here, you can come and eat."
Feng Qiwu had a bright smile on her face and walked briskly to the pavilion. When she saw Chi Chongrui was also there, her smile froze immediately.
He snorted coldly at Chi Chongrui, then returned to his previous expression and looked at Chu Liangyu.
Chi Chongrui's eyes didn't fall on him at all. He just looked at Chu Liangyu and said, "Madam, it's time to eat. Shall we go?"
"Let's go." Chu Liangyu took the lead and walked forward. Suddenly, he remembered something: "They don't know you're coming. They may not have any extra stools. Don't forget to get one from the house."
"Yeah, I know."
There was a smile in Chi Chongrui's eyes, and his gaze followed her figure.
"You actually started calling me Mistress, why?"
Suddenly, Feng Qiwu grabbed Chi Chongrui's sleeve. Not only was her tone full of questioning, but her expression was also serious.
Chi Zhongrui shook off his hand and said in a light voice, but with a hint of boasting: "Of course, she is already my mistress, so why not call her that?"
What he said was not subtle, Feng Qiwu also understood what he meant. They already had that kind of relationship, otherwise he wouldn't call her so naturally.
For some reason, Feng Qiwu felt a little unhappy.
This guy should have guessed this would happen when he first joined, but now that it’s finally happened, he’s a little reluctant to accept it.
Moreover, he always felt that he seemed to have made a mistake.
He had previously thought that Chi Chongrui had the intention to steal but not the courage to do so. He didn't expect that this man not only had the courage to steal, but was also very deep-minded!
"It turns out you're not as innocent as you look. I was mistaken."
