Guo Xiaoxiao: "Stop it, don't escalate the conflict. I already said that everyone at home listens to me and I'm in charge. Otherwise, get out."
The ultimatum worked; no one dared to speak again, but they still felt uneasy. Randy's three years were still a long way off; there were still three years to go.
Cang Jue: "Alright, alright, don't be angry. I didn't mean it. I was just envious and jealous of Randy. You have to understand me."
Guo Xiaoxiao: "I understand you. Please also understand me. I only have one, and you have five. I've been trying my best to balance things out. Please stop arguing over trivial matters. Every time I see you arguing about these things, I feel like I said something wrong."
It was really just a thoughtless remark. Like this time, it was just a small surprise to celebrate Randy's coming of age, a trivial matter, but they just kept arguing about it.
If they don't stop it quickly, things could get out of hand, and all five of them will start arguing together again, which Guo Xiaoxiao won't be able to handle.
When Carlos heard Guo Xiaoxiao say that, he gently touched her head with his right hand and said softly.
"Okay, that won't happen again."
Guo Xiaoxiao really enjoyed this smoothness. Carlos was still the one I liked the most. I never argued with them. Carlos was the most mature one.
But the other four didn't see his actions that way. Carlos was simply cunning and treacherous, coquettishly trying to please the females. To put it nicely, he knew how to advance and retreat; to put it bluntly, he was plotting against them.
Arthur: "I wasn't planning on arguing. If you don't want to hear it, then I won't say it."
Arthur also stepped in to smooth things over, having learned a bit of Carlos's tricks. It's just about advancing and retreating, right? He doesn't know how, humph.
Carlos glanced at Arthur, his eyes full of displeasure, and Arthur glared back with equal hostility. The two were exchanging barbs in an unspoken exchange.
"Carlos, is the robe you made for me finished? I want one that's cool and comfortable."
Carlos: "It's all ready. It's in the room on the third floor. I'll bring it down for you tomorrow. You can wear it to the ceremony in three days. It'll look beautiful."
Wow, that's great! It doesn't matter if it's pretty or not, it's cool and comfortable. Even if Guo Xiaoxiao wears that robe...
You have to change it every day, otherwise you'll be drenched in sweat and it will feel sticky on your body.
"That's great! Remember to bring it to me when you come back tomorrow."
…
At night, Carlos is used as her personal body pillow, and he now occupies the bed every day. Guo Xiaoxiao lies on him and feels very cool, like she is in a fully automatic air conditioner.
Originally, there were two males sleeping in the bed, one on each side, but now Carlos is sleeping alone in the bed. The others are envious, but there's nothing they can do. Whenever they get close to Guo Xiaoxiao at night, she complains that it's too hot.
Even fanning her with a wooden board was useless; they could only tacitly agree to get it back from Guo Xiaoxiao when it cooled down in the summer.
"It's cool here, come closer."
"Uh-huh"
Guo Xiaoxiao was already clinging to Carlos's body like an octopus. Carlos wrapped his arms around her, holding her tightly in his arms, and kissed her forehead.
But he didn't do anything else. He sensed that Guo Xiaoxiao and Cang Jue had mated today because there were red marks on her neck.
It's really eye-catching. Even though it's summer, he's still pestering females to mate with him. Only Cang Jue could do something like that.
But that's about enough. If we wait any longer, Xiaoxiao won't be able to hold back. Actually, he had the most opportunities, but every time he saw Guo Xiaoxiao lying on him, half asleep, he couldn't bear to let her suffer any more.
He is already very content with his life now. He has a female, a family, and children. What could he possibly want? He will spend the rest of his life with her.
The next day, Cang Jue truly regained his senses and was full of confidence. He transformed into an eagle beast and had his companions pluck a few feathers from his tail.
He made a beautiful necklace for Guo Xiaoxiao to wear at the ceremony. To make it look even better, he used some flower petal pigments to color it, making it colorful.
The feathers, similar to those on a collar, were also used by another person, Ian. When he wanted to seduce Guo Xiaoxiao, he dressed up like a flamingo, and those feathers were dyed with pigments.
Cang Jue put a lot of effort into it, stringing it together with a vine, and making sure that every spacing was perfect to ensure it looked good.
After finishing, he showed it off to his companions. They all agreed it was good, except that after Cang Jue transforms into a beast, his buttocks will be bald and it will take a while to grow back.
Actually, this was something that even his companions could laugh at, which showed how happy Cang Jue was. They were also wondering whether they should pluck the hair off their buttocks to please the female.
Even if I get laughed at, it's not as important as being a female.
Guo Xiaoxiao received many gifts from the underage beastmen; they included all sorts of things—pieces of meat, fruit, flowers, and even strangely shaped stones.
The room was overflowing with offerings; after all, there were several hundred underage orcs who were coming of age this year, so they all valued them highly.
Feeling that simply receiving the high shaman's blessing might not be enough to make them feel valued, they each brought gifts. It was only after Monet and Alo specifically reminded them that they remembered this matter; they couldn't let the ceremony be held for nothing.
There wasn't enough room left for all the things, and Guo Xiaoxiao really didn't want to pack anymore. Just as she was thinking this, another boy arrived.
"Great Shaman, I've traveled a long way to find you a green melon. I hope you'll accept my gift and grant my wish during the ceremony."
