Chapter 63 Yes
"Shu Ning, you'll have a baby beast with our boss, right?" He looked at her expectantly.
"This..." Shu Ning was caught off guard by his question and didn't know how to answer him.
Xuan Lin didn't even ask her that question.
"It can't be that fast." Mu Ran tapped his head.
“If we’re going to have a child, it should be with our boss first,” he said definitively.
"You!" He slapped back, his head throbbing from Mu Ran's knock.
"They'll definitely follow our boss first."
“Our boss,” Mu Ran replied.
"Our boss."
“…”
Leng Yu and An Liang sat to the side, watching with great interest as the two were about to start fighting, but they did not intervene.
They simply watched from the sidelines while enjoying the dried meat that Shu Ning had given them.
Anyway, their boss doesn't give them the chance to argue with them about this.
"Who do you think will win?" Anliang asked.
"I think Mu Ran would win the fight," Leng Yu said.
"Um."
Anliang nodded slightly in response.
"However, I think Xuan Lin has a better chance of winning."
"Not necessarily," Leng Yu said.
"Oh? What are your thoughts, Brother Leng?" An Liang asked.
"Are you stupid? It still depends on his health."
"Too."
Anliang nodded in affirmation.
"But I think Xuan Lin has a better chance."
“He doesn’t look weak,” he added.
"You can't be sure about these things," Leng Yu said.
"It seems Brother Leng has some experience."
...
Shu Ning was also dumbfounded. She never expected that the first time they would argue about this issue would be between the two beastmen who had no relation to each other.
Her beastly husbands haven't said a word yet.
And the two people next to them...
She, the person involved, was right there!
She held her forehead and lowered her head, not wanting to look at them anymore.
"Knock knock knock".
Just as she was about to call them to stop, she heard a knock on the door.
He then got up to open the door, "Xuan Lin?"
"Um."
The two people who were sparring stopped immediately upon hearing her words.
"Boss... Boss." Luo Ci ran out and called out awkwardly.
"Um."
Xuan Lin glanced around and saw not only Luo Ci and Mu Ran, but also Mu Yu and Mu Chen's subordinates An Liang and Leng Yu.
Xuan Lin looked down at the redness and swelling on Luo Ci's face and couldn't help but frown.
What happened to your face?
"I fell," Luo Ci replied softly.
"to be honest."
"To spar with Mu Ran."
Upon hearing this, he looked at the redness and swelling on Mu Ran's face and frowned slightly.
"Why are you fighting?" he asked seriously.
“We didn’t fight,” Luo Ci said.
"Hmm?" His aura became even more oppressive.
"I'll talk, I'll talk."
Seeing this, Luo Ci quickly explained.
"I was discussing with Mu Ran whether you or Lord Xiao Chong would have a baby beast with Shu Ning first. I said it would be you, but Mu Ran insisted that it would be their boss."
Xuan Lin was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. He looked at Shu Ning, a subtle glint flashing in his eyes, before turning to Luo Ci.
"Just because of that?"
"Yes, boss."
"Why aren't you going back to apply the herbal medicine?"
"yes."
After Luo Ci left, the other orcs also left.
At this moment, only Shu Ning and Xuan Lin remained in the cave.
Listening to Luo Ci's explanation to Xuan Lin, Shu Ning looked at him awkwardly: "Xuan Lin, what brings you here?"
"It's getting cold, don't catch a cold."
He then draped the animal fur he had brought over her.
She glanced at the weather outside; although the sky was overcast, it wasn't cold.
She looked at him again. Was he showing concern for her?
Then, the man moved closer to her and leaned down to kiss her forehead.
"Take care of yourself, I'm going to get back to work."
Shu Ning watched the man's departing figure, recalling what had happened yesterday.
Fortunately, he encountered himself; he couldn't imagine what would have happened if he had encountered Mu Yu or another beastman.
If Mu Yu had succeeded yesterday and gotten pregnant, what should she have done?
How will he handle this? Will he abandon her and be with Mu Yu? Or will he take care of both of them?
If he treats other females as his own, she would rather not have him.
But he is still her conquest beast husband, so she has no choice but to continue her conquest of him.
If she hadn't coincidentally run into Xuan Lin yesterday, she wouldn't have known that Mu Yu was already close to winning him over.
I thought she was just using some tricks to win people over, and I could guess that she would use some underhanded methods, but she was so eager to take Xuan Lin by force.
This is really a headache.
She could no longer allow her to do whatever she wanted to her beastly husband.
She decided to do something.
Shu Ning planned to take the jar containing the cured meat and the bacon to Mu Xia.
Before that, she planned to invite Mo Li along and spend more time with him to increase her favorability towards him.
"Mo Li!"
Shu Ning saw him just as she was about to leave.
She ran up to him and asked, "Why are you here? I was just about to look for you."
When Mo Li saw her excitedly running over to greet her, she pulled her into her arms, looked at her with interest, and said softly, "What do you want to see me about, hmm?"
"I need your help to move some things to my mother's place."
"Oh? So... before this, did you consider asking someone else for help?"
Shu Ning hadn't expected him to be so competitive.
However, she was very satisfied, which means that his feelings for her were slowly growing.
"Of course not, the first person I thought of was Mo Li." After saying that, she leaned against his chest.
Upon hearing Shu Ning's answer, Mo Li couldn't help but smile.
"That's good, otherwise I would have been jealous."
He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, his warm breath brushing against her skin, his voice deep and tinged with a smile.
"Friendly reminder: Mo Li's favorability has increased by 3 points. Mo Li's total favorability is now 33."
Hearing the system assistant's prompt, Shu Ning continued, "The things are in my cave. They're not very heavy, but I'd be very happy if Mo Li could help me carry them."
Shu Ning took his hand and led him into the cave to show him.
"This is it."
Mo Li looked at the jar on the ground, and stared at her curiously.
Seeing his confusion, Shu Ning simply explained the purpose of the marinated meat and the jar.
"I want all the people in my tribe to learn this method of storing meat."
Mo Li looked at her, her eyes filled with tenderness and admiration.
He then picked it up and said, "Let's go."
"Okay!" Shu Ning took the cured meat with her.
It was almost evening.
"Mo Li, you still haven't told me what you wanted to talk to me about earlier?"
"It's nothing," Mo Li said.
"Really?" Shu Ning didn't believe it.
"Um."
The two soon arrived at Muxia Cave.
Shu Ning gave Mu Xia a simple explanation of how to make cured meat, pickled meat, and the purpose of using jars.
Mu Xia was very excited after hearing this and nodded at her with satisfaction.
He then said, "Ningning, your idea is great. Xiao Chong also told me about it. I recently sent people to put it into practice, but they are not yet fully proficient in making jars. The finished products are all cracked."
"However, curing and bacon are not difficult."
“Mother, when firing the pot, it must be burned completely, otherwise it will easily crack.”
"Yes, Mother will remember," Mu Xia said.
"You haven't eaten yet, have you? You two can eat at your mother's tonight."
"Okay, let's go together, Mo Li."
Shu Ning looked at Mo Li; if he didn't want to, she could refuse on his behalf.
“Mm,” Mo Li replied.
"Alright, then Mother will go and make the preparations."
"Mother, let me help you."
"Ningning, just sit and wait to eat. Your father has almost finished preparing the meat," Muxia said.
"So fast."
“He was already preparing before you arrived.”
"Here it is!" Shu Yanzhao said, bringing out the skewered meat.
"Father, you've worked hard," Mo Li called out.
"Oh, Mo Li is such a polite child."
He said this after seeing Mo Li hand the grilled meat to Shu Ning.
"Mo Li, Ning Ning, eat more, and try to have a little beastman soon," Shu Yanzhao said.
"Father, what are you saying?" Shu Ning glanced shyly at Mo Li.
Shu Yanzhao looked at Mu Xia and said this.
"Hey, do you think their first child was a wolf cub or a little dragon-human?"
Mu Xia smiled after hearing this, "I like both the little wolf cub and the little dragon-man."
"Yes, yes, I like them all."
...
As the sun sets, a family of four enjoys barbecue and chats in front of Muxia Cave.
This heartwarming scene made Mo Li feel the warmth of home. Looking at Shu Ning beside him, a warm feeling welled up in his heart.
"Friendly reminder: Mo Li's favorability has increased by 5 points, and her current total favorability is 38."
