night.
Huang Yu lay on her side, embracing You Ran's waist and gently stroking it.
Everyone around him is busy right now, but it seems like the things he's busy with have nothing to do with You Ran.
He saw how busy You Ran was and felt sorry for her.
For the first time, he felt powerless.
"You Ran, am I useless? I can't even help you!"
Mu Youran was enjoying herself when she suddenly heard these insecure words. She turned to look at his handsome face, which was full of melancholy.
She cupped his face in her hands: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Haven't you noticed that I've been walking sideways lately?"
"Looking across the entire Beast King City, who dares to mess with me, Mu Youran? Who doesn't know that I am your partner, Huang Yu?"
Huang Yu didn't expect that she would say so much, and her voice was a little loud, after she only said one sentence quietly.
However, he liked hearing these words, knowing that he shouldn't have shown his low spirits just now, and that You Ran had to comfort him.
He chuckled softly, "Oh, walking sideways? How do you do that?"
Mu Youran knew he was teasing her, so she immediately stood on the bed and imitated a crab walking sideways, bumping around wildly.
She gave a mischievous smile, pretended to lose her balance, and bumped into his leg, falling down.
Huang Yu caught her and couldn't help but laugh.
"These little crabs look delicious to me. Tonight, would you like them steamed, braised, or stir-fried?"
At this moment, Mu Youran hugged his neck and gave him a kiss.
"Hehe, I want to stew you, you bird~"
As soon as she finished speaking, Huang Yu reached out and pulled the blanket over their heads, then moved.
"Then let's see if you have the ability!"
The next morning.
Mu Youran supported her slightly sore waist and glared fiercely at the culprit.
"Didn't we agree on a clear broth? You changed the recipe without my permission, how annoying!"
Huang Yu licked his slightly dry lips, pressed her head down, and gently placed a kiss on her.
"There's no way around it, these crabs are just too delicious, you have to try a variety of flavors."
Mu Youran rolled her eyes at him. She didn't know when, but this guy had gradually gone astray!
Fortunately, getting up and walking around made me feel much better.
By the time she and Long Yin arrived at the council hall of the Beast King's Palace, the sun was already high in the sky.
The patriarchs of the nine great families had been waiting here for a long time.
Besides the exhausted and listless Shu Ming, there was also Hu Chen, the chief of the Tiger Clan, who already knew the inside story. The two of them sat quietly at the table.
The others all looked displeased.
"What does this Beast King mean?"
"Exactly! He called us over so early, but he himself didn't show up!"
"I ate a roasted lamb leg first thing this morning, and I'm still hungry."
"Hey, you know what, I'm hungry too!"
At this moment, the chieftain of the Tengshe clan walked up to Shuming and said with a smile.
"Chief Rat, have you had breakfast? Do you have anything to eat? Could you share some with me?"
He suffered a loss at Xuan Feng's hands last time, losing two shops, but after listening to Xuan Feng's words, he went to other aristocratic families to ask for their share of the money.
Unexpectedly, he made more money on this trip than he did with his shop!
He was overjoyed, and now he feels especially close to Shuming.
The dazzling smile pierced Shu Ming's heart.
Can't he see that he really doesn't want to talk to anyone right now?
After I lost so much blood yesterday, he still had the nerve to come and ask me for breakfast!
He didn't even eat any himself!
However, while the rat clan hadn't dared to confront the Tengshe clan head-on before, he was now even less confident.
Suppressing his dissatisfaction, he pretended to be nonchalant.
"No."
Hu Chen observed the expressions on these people's faces and began to admire Shu Ming.
He was in such a big situation yesterday, yet he remains so calm; his character is truly extraordinary.
"The Beast King is here!"
Suddenly he saw the Beast King, the Hidden Prince, and the Queen walk in through the side door and quickly called out to warn them.
The scene, which had been noisy just moments before, fell silent instantly.
They greeted in unison: "Beast King, Hidden Prince, Queen."
The Beast King smiled broadly and gestured for them to sit down.
"Okay, okay, everyone's here."
"Regarding today's matter, the Princess will speak on my behalf. What she said is exactly what I wanted to say. You have no objections, right?"
The Tengshe clan chief and the other clan chiefs exchanged a knowing glance, their eyes filled with contemptuous smiles.
"How could that be? Besides, Beast King, aren't you here too?"
At this moment, seven of the nine great families were overjoyed.
Haha, it's really foolish of the Beast King to make a decision to send a shallow female as his representative.
Let's see how those guys mess with her later!
Both Shuming and Huchen understood what these people were thinking.
After all, they're on the same side now, but who knows who'll outmaneuver whom in the end?
Especially Shu Ming, he couldn't wait for these guys to suffer along with him, so that no one could laugh at anyone else!
The Beast King gave Mu Youran a look, and Mu Youran sat down next to the Beast King, straightening her back.
He took a sheepskin scroll directly from Hu Ben's hand: "The first thing is to announce that the nine great families can automatically relinquish their family status and have their property confiscated."
"Of course, the Beast King will provide some compensation based on his abilities and assign him a suitable position."
Upon hearing this, the major families couldn't help but burst into laughter.
This is absolutely ridiculous. They must be insane to give up their noble family status and give the Beast King all the wealth their families had accumulated.
The chieftains of the Tengshe and Falcon tribes both looked up at Mu Youran with disdain.
After looking her up and down, she was pretty, but at best she was just a female to warm the bed.
But when it comes to actually doing something, those two sentences alone expose her incompetence!
You should know that if their families unite, they can directly overthrow the Beast King's rule.
Does she really think she can make them give up their existing wealth, power, and status with just a casual remark?
Keep dreaming!
