Chapter 53 Using the same trick again
The people who were looked at by Shu Ning had different expressions.
Especially Xuanmo, what did she just shake her head at him to deny?
He went over and patted her head.
Happy birthday.
He then left.
Mo Li and Jin Tong patted her head, just like Xuan Mo did, offered their congratulations, and then left.
Jin Tong made one more move than the previous two.
After patting her head, he pinched her cheek.
"Mmm!" Shu Ning's face hurt from his pinching.
She reached out to hit it, but missed.
She looked up at Xiao Chong, her eyes seeming to be complaining to him.
Xiao Chong chuckled and patted her head.
"Let's go back."
"Um."
Back in her cave, Shu Ning looked at the gifts they had brought, which were almost overflowing at the entrance.
Xiao Chong helped her sort and organize the items—new animal hides, meat, herbs, and animal bone weapons.
Finally, they were placed neatly in their original positions.
Shu Ning then put the meat into a basin to marinate.
After doing all this, Xiao Chong got Shu Ning some food and then went back.
Shu Ning slumped on the bed. Although she hadn't done much, she was easily tired because she was menstruating.
After a short rest, she planned to try the same trick again.
Jin Tong's personality is very different from Mo Li's. If you give him something he likes, he will probably react more strongly than Mo Li.
She took out the encyclopedia and found the section on foxes.
Jin Tong: Son of Lie Feng, the chief of the Red Fox Clan, and Ling Shuang, the Snow Fox. His older sister, Yue Ying, was born in the Linghu Mountains... He has a sweet tooth, especially honey.
I was only paying attention to his preferences, and only after reading it did I notice there was another line above:
During thunderstorms, the ability to transform into orc form will weaken, and the ability to do so will be unavailable for a very short time. The ability to transform will be restored after the thunder subsides.
Shu Ning thought that was all, but before she looked away, she noticed a small line of text. Her eyes widened—
They expect to be in love with their female partners, enjoy being close to their partners, and like to be touched by their partners.
Shu Ning's lips twitched after reading it.
Is this something new added in 007?
Did he hear his own inner voice and know that she planned to win over Jin Tong?
Shu Ning strongly doubted this.
Regardless, she plans to spend the next couple of days getting to know him better and increase his favorability towards her.
By then, her period will be almost over, so completing the task won't have much of an impact.
Next, she searched for places that had been to the honey, and it happened to be within her search area.
But here's the problem: whose favorability should we use?
She opened the system assistant to check her favorability rating:
Xuan Lin: -34 (Dislike)
Xuanmo: 36 (generally above average)
Yi Yuan: -30 (Dislike)
Mo Li: 11 (No feeling)
Jin Tong: 31 (Normal)
Werewolf Orc: 0.87 (No reaction)
Jiaolong Beastman: 0.35 (No effect)
Fox Clan Orc: 0.68 (No effect)
Other orc races: None
Xiao Chong: Hide is temporarily unavailable.
That's really... pitifully little.
Shu Ning sighed and analyzed whose method would be most suitable.
For the sake of the smooth progress of what follows, Jin Tong's cannot be used.
Mo Li's supply is also unusable; there's too little of it. Once it's used up, he'll be close to hating her.
Xuanmo's cannot be used either. If Jintong's process does not go smoothly, the target can be switched to Xuanmo.
This stumped her.
Let's use Mo Li's name. Anyway, whether he dislikes her or is indifferent to her, he treats her the same way.
She hesitated again just as she was about to use it; Mo Li had finally gained a little bit of health.
She ultimately decided to use Xuanmo.
I'll make it up to him properly later.
After all, his favorability rating is easy to increase.
I'm sorry, Xuanmo!
She closed her eyes, and a honeycomb filled with honey appeared before her.
Fortunately, the teleporter knew she only wanted honey and didn't bring the bees with it.
She scooped out the honey with a spoon and put it into a jar.
It was already evening.
Outside the Ember Eye Cave—
He appeared before Shu Ning even started calling.
Shu Ning looked at Jin Tong under the setting sun. Her long silver-red hair was draped over her shoulders, and the ends of her hair gradually turned golden-orange as if burned, shimmering with light as she moved.
His face was pale and sharp-edged, with narrow, upturned eyes and a streamlined body with broad shoulders and a narrow waist.
The thought of her purpose made her face flush and her heart pound.
"Why are you here?" Jin Tong asked with interest, noticing the blush on her face.
"Jin Tong, I have something good to give you."
Shu Ning showed him the jar she was carrying.
His eyes lit up and his mouth watered at the smell of honey.
He then turned her around to make sure she was alright and asked, "How did you get it?"
"I did it myself."
Jin Tong looked at her with suspicion.
When did his females become so capable that they can even extract honey?
She can truly surprise him at any moment.
Shu Ning took his hand, placed it on the rope, and let him hold it.
"Consider this a thank you for giving me this."
She took out the pendant hanging around her neck.
"You're welcome. This is what you deserve. You saved my father, and this gift is far from enough to repay your kindness."
"Anyway, it's only right to reciprocate, so don't refuse unless you find it offensive."
"How could that be?"
He picked up the jar and opened it directly. There was a spoon inside. He scooped out a spoonful and fed it to Shu Ning.
Shu Ning was stunned by his sudden feeding and, afraid that the honey would spill, she opened her mouth to catch it.
"Mmm, it's very sweet!" she said with a smile.
Seeing how happily she was eating, a slight smile appeared on his lips.
Then I ate a spoonful myself.
The moment the honey touched my lips, its sweetness filled my mouth, and my heart was also sweetened by it.
This was a gift from his female.
He looked into Shu Ning's expectant eyes.
"It's delicious, very sweet."
At that moment, he had an urge to pick her up immediately.
"Eat more if it's delicious," Shu Ning said happily.
"Friendly reminder: Jin Tong's favorability has increased by 10 points, currently at 41."
Hearing the good news from the system assistant, Shu Ning was even happier.
I never expected Jin Tong to be so easily satisfied!
It seems this method really works for him.
Now she was certain that her beastly husband was easily satisfied as long as she praised him and brought him things he liked.
“Jin Tong,” she said.
"Is there anything else?"
"It's so late now..."
Upon hearing this, Jin Tong looked up at her, waiting for her next words.
"You should get some rest. I'm going back now," Shu Ning said.
A barely perceptible hint of disappointment flashed in Jin Tong's eyes, as if the answer was not what he had expected.
"Okay, go back and get some rest."
"good."
After Shu Ning finished speaking, she left.
As she passed by Yiyuan's cave, she suddenly felt like going in to take a look.
His cave was very quiet, so quiet that only the sound of her footsteps could be heard. There was no sign of life inside, as if he had left half a century ago.
She sat on the edge of the bed where she used to lie, her hand on the animal skin blanket, touching the blanket he used to cover himself with, and the memories of the time she spent with him came vividly to mind.
But now his presence is gone, as if he had never been here at all.
Looking back to when he first arrived, he clearly disliked her, but he still brought her food as always and softened his heart to agree to her request to sleep in his bed.
Even though they had only spent a few days together, for some reason, she felt sad about his departure.
How is he doing these days?
Did you encounter any danger? Did you meet any new females? Did you think of her...?
