Chapter 42 Her Questioning, His Panic
The light around her dimmed, and a warm current quickly rushed towards her. Her vision was blocked, and she had returned to Feng He's cave.
Feng He walked a few steps closer to the nest, gently placed her on it and said, "Luo Xing, eat something before you go to sleep."
Ye Luoxing retracted her attention. She looked at Feng He in front of her and smiled: "Thank you for your hard work last night!"
Feng He was picking up the fruits he had picked yesterday. Hearing her words that seemed to show concern for him, Feng He smiled with his beautiful eyes bent: "It's not hard at all. I will do everything you ask me to do. Besides, you are the orc who saved the Snow Owl Tribe. It is my duty to guard you!"
"Luo Xing, the fruits have been purified and washed, so you can eat them without worry!" Feng He handed the fruit to her.
Ye Luoxing lowered her head and glanced at the fruit in his hand, remembering the conversation with the leader last night. It turned out that the food she had eaten in the past few days had been purified. In this way, she saved Camon and the others, which was also a favor. Although she didn't eat much food from the beast world in the past two days...
Ye Luoxing took the fruits and ate them while thinking about something.
Then, she raised her head and asked Feng He, "Did you really throw away the rabbit meat yesterday?"
Ever since he knew how hard it was to get food in the beast world, Ye Luoxing couldn't bear to waste it. People who had experienced the end of the world always valued these resources more, especially food, which was exchanged for human lives, and food in the beast world was also exchanged for the health of females...
When Feng He heard her suddenly ask about this, he seemed to have misunderstood something and said, "The rabbit meat has been thrown back into the cave. Orcs will not waste food casually. Luo Xing, if you are really scared, I will discuss with the leader and we will not hunt rabbits anymore, okay?"
Feng He thought of what Ye Luoxing said on the high ground. He was afraid that she would really leave the Snow Owl Tribe...
Ye Luoxing hurriedly said: "It's okay, I'm not afraid, I'm just afraid that you will waste food."
When Feng He heard her say that, he smiled and said, "Luo Xing, you are so nice..."
This seemed to be not the first time he had said how nice she was. This little snowy owl was really easy to satisfy.
She inadvertently glanced at the information collector on his neck, and remembered what Feng He said about the items on their necks. She couldn't help but darken her eyes, and then whispered to him, "Feng He, can you squat down?"
Feng He was still holding the fruit for her. After hearing what she said, he half-knelt in front of her without hesitation.
Ye Luoxing raised her slender fingers, came to the back of his head, and gently stroked his hair. Because of her action, Feng He's body froze, his muscles tensed, and he stared at him in a daze...
Ye Luoxing's hand slowly moved down, and she once again tried to forcibly remove the collector from his neck.
His hair was very smooth and sleek, unlike the stereotypical primitive people’s dirty, messy and rough hair. It was obvious that although he was an orc, he loved cleanliness. The other orcs in the Snow Owl Tribe seemed to be the same. They seemed to go to the glacier every morning to rinse their mouths and chew fruits that could freshen their breath…
"Luo Xing, except when I was a child, no orc has ever touched my head, because it is the dignity of a male beast. But you are my partner, this is different. I am very happy that you are closer to me..." Feng He lowered his eyelashes and said these words gently, causing Ye Luoxing, who was about to act, to freeze his hand.
Was it a bit too cruel to force him to take it off like this? Besides, Yue Shang in his mind saw her purpose and tried to stop her. This approach might completely damage the information collection loop...
Ye Luoxing continued to move his hands, but changed his way, trying to reason with Feng He.
She asked softly, "Feng He, do you like me very much?"
When she asked this, Feng He suddenly raised his head and looked at her.
She was willing to ask if she was considering taking him in as a partner.
Feng He's eyes were full of sincerity. He nodded: "Yes, I like it very much. I want to be your partner, Luo Xing."
Ye Luoxing laughed: "But why? We have only known each other for a few days, I don't fully understand you, and you don't fully understand me. Is it because I was very beautiful when we first met? So you like me, right?"
Ye Luoxing asked directly. The cave was silent for a few seconds. Fenghe's golden eyes, like colored glass, trembled.
He always felt that Luo Xing's questions were strange. He felt that he shouldn't reply in the same way as she said. He felt that he felt strange in his heart, as if he wanted to explain something, but he couldn't explain anything...
The two pairs of eyes stared at each other quietly, and when the black pupils were filled with seriousness and solemnity, people were afraid to look directly at them.
Finally, Feng He nodded: "Yeah."
Hearing his honest answer, Ye Luoxing's smile became even brighter. She was not surprised, especially not by the orc's frankness.
She saw Feng He staring at her, and he said seriously: "You are very beautiful. Isn't it normal for male beasts to pursue beautiful female beasts? Female beasts will also choose beautiful and strong male beasts! Luo Xing, you don't want to be with me, is it because I am not strong enough?"
The orcs' emotions were simple and direct, so Ye Luoxing did not answer his question.
She just said, "But I'm not beautiful anymore, and my scars won't heal."
Ye Luoxing withdrew her hand that was stroking his hair. She wanted to tell him everything.
Feng He was very stubborn: "But I recognized you at first sight..."
Ye Luoxing said indifferently: "You male beasts can pursue different female beasts many times before you form a mate. I have already seen it, so there is no such thing as determination. I will not blame you if you make a new choice, and no beastman will think you are irresponsible, because we have just known each other for a short time."
Feng He saw her sudden change in attitude and heard her words, and became inexplicably anxious.
He seemed to have no idea where to put his hands and feet. Most of the permanent residents in primitive society were simple and innocent, and now he was having a hard time coping with them.
But he only hesitated for three minutes, and he seemed to have sorted out his thoughts a little bit. He slowly said to Ye Luoxing: "Luoxing, I liked you because you were beautiful at first, but after bringing you back, I found that... you are very gentle, very good to me, and you helped treat Kaimon and the others. You are amazing..."
Feng He spoke intermittently, perhaps he couldn't sort out the complexity of what was going on.
However, when she showed her tenderness, the feeling of recognition had never been so strong. Just before, on the high ground, when he witnessed her saving Camon and the others, she calmly bathed in the sun, looking calmly at the beasts around her. Her every word and every move made the strange feeling in his heart stronger...
Perhaps Luo Xing had no idea how dazzling she was when she stood there confidently!
She didn't know that all the beasts in the tribe were distracted for a moment!
"Feng He!" Ye Luoxing interrupted him. He liked her appearance and admired her talent, but all this was not love. Ye Luoxing was still as calm as when he was on the high ground.
She slowly said, "You don't like me. If there is another female beast with the same face and the same abilities, you will like her too! You won't even be able to tell which one is her and which one is me!"
She suddenly leaned forward and approached him: "Feng He, let me ask you, when you found out that I disappeared last night, were you in pain? Were you uncomfortable? Or were you just very anxious! Let me ask you again, when you see me, does your heartbeat speed up uncontrollably? Do you feel as if a feather is passing through your heart? Do you feel at a loss? Do you hesitate to speak? Do you blush..."
Ye Luoxing didn’t know how much he could understand, nor did she need him to understand everything. She just told him a fact.
