Guo Xiaoxiao finally realized what was going on, and she said
"Randy, you weren't actually hurt, were you? You tricked me into coming here on purpose, weren't you? The Beast knocked you over. You and Abil teamed up to lie to me."
Randy hesitated for a moment, then said guiltily, "It's...it's true..."
Guo Xiaoxiao didn't believe it.
"You're the one who lied to me, Randy. You've gone astray. It must have been Abbil who gave you that bad idea."
"It's alright, at least the result is good."
Guo Xiaoxiao: "Sigh..."
I really don't know what to say to you guys. Guo Xiaoxiao didn't care much about the harmless lie, but you tricked her into coming out just to mate, making her anxious for ages.
Just tell the truth, she won't refuse. It's not like we're having a clandestine rendezvous.
As Guo Xiaoxiao put on the animal skin, she muttered, "Don't listen to Abil's nonsense anymore. How can you joke about getting injured? It's not worth it to bring me out here just to mate."
Randy started helping Guo Xiaoxiao put on the animal skin; it was a bit chilly at night.
"I was afraid you wouldn't like it. Seeing that you're not angry is so good. You still like me after all."
Guo Xiaoxiao patted his head
Of course I like you.
Anyway, the order is all messed up, so whatever. Tomorrow, either Cang Jue or Miksen can mate; it's been months already. Let's finish the rotation and let her rest for a while.
Randy pressed his advantage: "Then let's go out and have some fun. We'll stay in the Forgotten Continent for about ten or twenty days and then come back."
Guo Xiaoxiao remained silent. How could she refuse him without hurting his feelings?
Randy was thrilled; she had agreed! He hugged Guo Xiaoxiao, kissed her forehead, her eyebrows, her lips, and finally placed his kiss on her chest.
Guo Xiaoxiao gripped the animal skin clothing nervously; she couldn't continue for even half an hour longer.
"I will be very gentle."
Randy leaned close to Guo Xiaoxiao's ear, his voice low and ticklish, making Guo Xiaoxiao tremble. She reached out and forcefully refused.
"No, no, we have to go back."
Randy was a little disappointed: "Oh."
Seeing Randy's aggrieved look, Guo Xiaoxiao couldn't help but comfort him, saying, "It's not that I don't want to go out with you, but the parasite plague isn't over yet. The Forgotten Continent may look calm on the surface, but there are hidden dangers. Let's go out together after the plague is over, okay?"
"Really??"
When Randy heard that Guo Xiaoxiao had agreed, he wasn't in a hurry. Abir even told him to take Guo Xiaoxiao deep into the jungle for a month or two before bringing her back, to cultivate their relationship first and gain the upper hand.
"Yes, I wouldn't lie."
Guo Xiaoxiao's promise made Randy very happy, and he then began to put on the animal skins. After the two packed their things, they left.
In reality, Guo Xiaoxiao was thinking, "We didn't say we wouldn't bring Arthur and the others when we went out together."
The two of them went off to play for dozens of days and then came back. That's not good. It's really too neglectful of others. The distribution is uneven, and the harem will be in chaos. It's only themselves who will suffer.
The two happily returned to their room, only to be met with several stern-faced men again. This time, Guo Xiaoxiao readily admitted...
Yes, we mated.
I've come to terms with it, it doesn't matter anymore... Ranking isn't important, whoever has time can do it, no need to worry about it, haha.
"But I want to tell you that I will not be cold to any of you. Don't try to pin the blame on me. Based on past experience, I won't change my tendency to be jealous and competitive."
It's like she was tricked into going out both times and then went along with it, so you can't entirely blame her. His lack of strong refusal is only a secondary responsibility, not the primary one.
"From now on, mating won't be in any particular order. Whoever is free first will go first, and no more arguing."
Just as Arthur was about to say something, Guo Xiaoxiao interrupted him.
"You're not allowed to give me any opinions. Once you do, it never ends. If we can't reach a solution, you'll start arguing again. Home isn't a place for reasoning; nobody's wrong."
"Let's get along peacefully, stop arguing, and stop fighting."
Carlos became a bowl of soup for Guo Xiaoxiao
"I'll do as you say."
Having said all that, Cang Jue and Mikeson didn't say anything more. But now there was an important issue that needed to be discussed: Randy wasn't there this afternoon, but they had discovered traces of other orc tribes and had actually taken over the camel's territory.
It was a large-scale occupation. Xiao Ni flew over, took a look, and reported that their tribe had a large population, at least 5,000 people. They weren't wandering beasts; they were probably migrants who had settled there not long ago.
It's good that they didn't act rashly, but if 5,000 people settle down, hunting and competition for resources will inevitably occur.
Arthur went through the whole story and explained it to Guo Xiaoxiao, who listened while eating.
Carlos: "We have 10,000, they only have 5,000, but if a bunch of orcs suddenly appear, the prey in the jungle will be depleted, and we'll have to divide up the territory."
Arthur: "It's alright for now. We don't feel a strong sense that prey is becoming scarce. But that might change in the long run. They're not far from us; we'll have to fight them head-on eventually."
The vast Sishui River is perfect for scouting enemy positions. Since you can fly, even if you're discovered, you can simply fly away; no one can stop you from leaving if you want to.
Cang Jue: "Tomorrow I'll take a few orcs to negotiate with the chieftain and demarcate the territory. This entire forest, up to the waterfall on the other side, is off-limits; hunting is only allowed on the other side of the waterfall."
Carlos: "I'll go with you, bring more people, and be careful, make sure they're not infected, and keep a safe distance."
Guo Xiaoxiao: "Let's not rush to find them. We're here at the grotto; he must have already spotted us, but he hasn't come to talk to us. He probably doesn't want to provoke us at all."
