After changing into close-fitting cotton clothes, Su Tang felt completely comfortable.
Actually, the food on the island was pretty good, but the hygiene was terrible. It was far from the water source, and washing up was inconvenient.
When they arrived at Hu Shen and Su Jianyuan's cave, Hu Shen had already washed up and changed into a clean animal skin.
Their eyes met, and Su Tang, seeing Su Jianyuan standing there, looked away somewhat embarrassed.
"Girls, thank goodness we found you. Otherwise, if we had stayed any longer, we might have had to spend the entire snow season here."
Su Jianyuan has returned to his usual carefree self.
As he spoke, his gaze suddenly became fixed on Su Tang's neck.
"etc!"
He glanced at Su Tang, then at Hu Shen behind him, and winked at Su Tang.
"Girl, Hu Shen, something's up between you two..."
"Ahem! Um, when do you plan to leave? Have you told Uncle Gan and Momo?"
Su Tang noticed a small red hickey on her neck and awkwardly changed the subject.
When Tu Momo was mentioned, Su Jianyuan's expression clearly froze.
"You'll have to ask Hu Shen that." He quickly turned to Hu Shen. "Hu Shen, when do you plan to go back?"
After pondering for a moment, Hu Shen said:
"Hurry up, we need to get back to Mount Ten Thousand Beasts before the snow season arrives."
If you can't get back before the snow season, you might freeze to death on the road.
Su Tang was worried that Hu Shen's injuries had not fully recovered and he would not be able to withstand the long journey.
After discussing it, the three decided to rest for a day and set off again the day after tomorrow.
Niu Li and Hu Ming also had time to organize the supplies they wanted to take with them.
Upon learning that Hu Shen and his group of orcs were about to leave, Uncle Gan was somewhat reluctant and immediately instructed his people to help pack their belongings.
The tribe bustled with activity again, tinged with a touch of melancholy at parting.
Su Tang and Hu Shen came out of Uncle Gan's cave, and she was worried that Su Jianyuan would ask her about her relationship with Hu Shen.
As a result, Su Jianyuan disappeared as soon as he turned around.
"What's the rush that you're running so fast..." Su Tang muttered.
The two headed towards Rabbit Momo's burrow.
Seeing Hu Shen following closely behind, Su Tang coughed lightly and said:
"Um, I'm staying with Tu Momo tonight, you have to stay with my brother."
In the darkness, Hu Shen's eyes were filled with resentment. "I can have Uncle Gan prepare a separate cave for us."
"No!" Su Tang hurriedly stopped him. Although she and Hu Shen had made substantial progress, she was too ashamed to trouble others with such a matter.
"It's the last day, hang in there."
The cave wasn't soundproof, there were many orcs living there, and there were no doors. Plus, Hu Shen was making a lot of noise, so she didn't want to broadcast it live here.
Hu Shen pursed his lips and remained silent, continuing to follow behind.
Su Tang kept turning back before he explained:
"I'll take you there first, then I'll go back."
"Okay then." Su Tang breathed a sigh of relief, but then felt something was off. Why did she and Hu Shen have a feeling of having an affair?
Su Tang stopped outside the cave.
"We're here, you..."
As soon as I turned around, I was pressed against the wall by a tall figure.
He cupped the back of her head with his large hand, and a powerful kiss swept over her.
A dozen seconds later, Hu Shen reluctantly parted ways, his voice hoarse and aggrieved as he said, "A Tang, we're already partners. You have to take responsibility for me and not leave me."
Su Tang was stunned for a moment. She could almost see a pair of big, furry ears on Hu Shen's head in the darkness, drooping down pitifully.
She understood instantly.
Hu Shen must have misunderstood.
After returning, he avoided mentioning the relationship between the two of them and didn't tell anyone.
In the eyes of orcs, mating is something that must be announced to the world, to tell all orcs that this is their partner.
"Pfft." Su Tang couldn't help but laugh, hooking her arm around Hu Shen's neck and rubbing against his chest.
"What are you thinking? You are my only partner. When we get back, I will tell my parents about us."
Hearing Su Tang's words, Hu Shen finally smiled.
Su Tang stood on tiptoe, intending to "comfort" Hu Shen.
"who?"
A sound suddenly came from the aisle behind me.
Su Tang stopped moving and turned around sharply to look at the dark corridor behind her.
"MoMo, it's me."
A familiar voice soon echoed through the dark corridor.
Su Tang's expression changed several times before she quickly realized what was happening.
It turns out that no orcs saw her and Hu Shen.
But why does that voice sound so much like her brother's?
Su Tang and Hu Shen exchanged a glance, as if they understood each other perfectly, and remained silent without saying a word.
"Ah Yuan, why are you here? Is there something you need?" It was Tu Momo's voice, which Su Tang recognized immediately.
The two stopped walking and did not go any further.
The sound was very clear, right around the bend.
"Momo, this is a tinderbox. You can open it and blow on it to start a fire. Your tribe doesn't have fire, but I have a few left here. Keep them in case the fire goes out accidentally."
Su Jianyuan's voice followed immediately.
Upon hearing this, Su Tang wondered why her brother had suddenly become so tender-hearted towards women.
Back in the gray wolf tribe, he could barely exchange a few words with the females.
"Ah Yuan, this is too precious, I can't accept it."
"Take these. We're leaving the day after tomorrow. Consider these things a thank you for your help."
Listening to their conversation, Su Tang couldn't help but click her tongue twice in her mind.
