Shen Miao later learned that the kids really liked to show off their mother to others outside. She smiled and didn't stop them, as long as the kids were happy.
The Ice Tiger Clan sent orcs again.
When the last deal fell through, the orc was severely punished upon his return. Afterward, the orcs of the tribe decided to make him come and apologize to Shen Miao. The orc refused to come, so the tribe sent another orc to bring him over.
Left with no other choice, the orc came over, but his tone was harsh and he showed no sincerity whatsoever. When he stood in front of Shen Miao, it was as if he was about to hit her.
"I'm sorry, I was in a bad mood last time, but you didn't lose anything. At worst, I'll compensate you for the cost of a meal."
Shen Miao looked at the unrepentant orc in front of her and almost laughed in anger: "Is this your sincerity? I can't feel it. I will no longer sell beast crystals to your Ice Tiger Clan. Please leave."
When she's obsessed with that little bit of stuff? If you're not sincere, don't come.
Another orc got impatient, kicked the first orc, and cursed, "What did you promise in the tribe? How come everything has changed here? Believe me or not, I'll go back and tell the chief everything that happened here."
"I've already apologized, what more do you want from me? To kowtow to the female beast of this poor tribe?" the orc shouted, his neck stiff and his tone unpleasant.
Shen Miao, not bothering to listen to his repeated use of the term "poor tribe," rolled her eyes and turned to go back inside.
A scream came from behind: "Ah! What are you doing?"
"Kneel down and apologize!" the orc roared.
They then apologized to Shen Miao, saying that they meant no harm, but Da Shan was just a bit outspoken, and hoped that Shen Miao wouldn't mind.
Dashan is that orc with a terrible temper.
Shen Miao sneered, "I can't afford to entertain someone with such a bad temper here."
They still ignored it.
Da Shan was forced to kneel down, breathing heavily, his eyes bloodshot, staring fiercely at Shen Miao.
The orc said ingratiatingly, "Well, Dashan knelt down before you. Do you think you can forgive him? I think the cooperation between you and our tribe has always been quite pleasant. It would be such a pity to break it off over such a small matter."
“There’s nothing to regret. My beast crystals are not lacking in beastmen who want to buy them. Even if I can’t sell them and they’re stuck in my hands, I would rather not sell them to beastmen like that.” Shen Miao pointed to the mountain.
Da Shan was furious: "You're deliberately targeting me."
Shen Miao smiled and said, "That's right, I'm targeting you. You threw away the food I carefully prepared, do you expect me to be nice to you?"
"I've already apologized..."
"What kind of apology is this? Forced to kneel down because of the loss? I can't accept this kind of apology."
Da Shan was breathing heavily, as if he was about to rush up and tear Shen Miao to pieces at any moment.
Most female beasts would have been terrified at the sight of such a situation, but Shen Miao remained calm from beginning to end, not taking the mountain seriously at all.
The beastman who brought Dashan over watched from the side and gradually realized that Shen Miao was a female beast who was not swayed by either soft or hard tactics. If things continued like this, they would not get any advantage.
Thinking of this, the orc scolded Da Shan: "An apology must be sincere. Kneel down to the person until they are satisfied."
Da Shan stared in disbelief at the orc of his own kind, but the orc remained unmoved. He had come with the chieftain's instructions to repair the trade line with Shen Miao.
"Hurry up, stop dawdling like an orc. Don't be so hesitant. This is your own mistake. If you don't make amends, who will?" The orc was extremely cold and ruthless.
Da Shan's eyes were filled with humiliation, but under pressure, he still kowtowed, one after another. The orc wouldn't let him stop; as long as Shen Miao didn't forgive him, he had to keep kowtowing.
Soon, blood appeared on Dashan's forehead.
Shen Miao couldn't help but say, "Don't kowtow to me, go outside to kowtow."
“Madam Shen, whether you believe it or not, we have come here sincerely to apologize. You have seen Brother Dashan’s sincerity. If you do not forgive him, we will have difficulty returning home,” the orc said earnestly.
They pressed Dashan to apologize, and Dashan said humiliatingly, "I was wrong."
Shen Miao originally intended to stop dealing with them, but seeing their attitude, she thought about it and decided against it. However, she made a request: "I can continue trading with you, but on one condition."
"Please speak, please speak."
"I hope this orc never appears in our tribe again," Shen Miao said, pointing to the mountain.
The orc nodded repeatedly: "No problem, we won't send him again."
Shen Miao nodded, asking them to wait a moment. She went inside to retrieve the beast crystals. This transaction was different from the previous ones; there weren't many high-grade items. The beastman hesitated, but ultimately said nothing. He simply took the beast crystals, left the goods behind, and took Da Shan back.
"You shouldn't do business with them anymore."
A faint voice came from behind.
Shen Miao turned around and saw Qing Chen leaning against the wall, standing at the door.
He is now slowly recovering and can already walk a few steps. He saw what happened outside just now.
Shen Miao was puzzled and asked, "If I don't agree, they will keep pestering me. I'm too lazy to waste words with them. Anyway, it's just a transaction, and I won't associate with them."
Qingchen remained noncommittal, only saying, "That beastman named Dashan is very dangerous."
“It’s none of my business; his people will teach him a lesson,” Shen Miao said.
However, she was too naive; she underestimated the despicable nature of some orcs.
Da Shan grew increasingly angry and secretly turned back halfway through, unleashing his hail power to smash Shen Miao's house to pieces, destroying the newly repaired roof once again.
Shen Miao was furious. Protecting the children who were almost injured by the attack, she watched the figure who had fled after the attack, her whole body burning with rage.
"Ice Tiger Clan, I will make you pay the price!"
Shen Miao wanted to give chase, but after seeing the other party's abilities, she decided to hold off for now. This was the first time she had ever seen the abilities of this beastman world.
Wow, it's that powerful.
The wooden house was damaged, and many other things were smashed. Shen Miao had no choice but to rebuild it together with Zai Zai and Jiu Ying, who had just returned from the mountain.
Although Qingchen was recovering, he couldn't do too much work for the time being, so Shen Miao didn't let him join in.
As the kids tidied up the house, they huffed and puffed, "If only I had that ability, no one would dare to bully us."
"Yes, I also want to be that good."
Jiuying was somewhat annoyed, "If only I were at home."
Shen Miao comforted her, saying, "You always have your own things to do; you can't stay home all day. Besides, you might not be useful even if you were home. That despicable person wouldn't dare come openly; he would have attacked from the shadows."
