"How strange, there seem to be more and more orcs?"
Shengxia looked on in bewilderment as the excited, shouting beastmen came running over in droves.
What's going on?
Judging from your excited expression, did you find something precious?
"There aren't any special events during the snow season. People probably just know you're home and come over to greet you," Wolf King gently straightened Sheng Xia's collar and explained softly.
The next second, a dark figure darted out from the herd of beasts.
Sheng Xia's almond-shaped eyes widened slightly. Only when the wolf king pulled her into his arms did she realize it was Xue Lian. She was wearing a shiny black bearskin coat, which made her already round figure look even more like a ball...
"Xuelian, what's wrong?"
"Doctor Xia, I heard you're back. You must not have eaten yet, right? I came to get you something to eat!" Xue Lian said playfully, blinking her big eyes.
Her mouth and nose were completely covered by a black scarf, but even in the height of summer, one could clearly see the genuine smile in her eyes, which warmed the heart.
"Thank you, but I have..." food. I appreciate your kindness, but please take it back.
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the enthusiastic Snow Lotus.
She rushed to her partner's side and pointed at the main gate, ordering, "Go, move it to the entrance."
Without a word, her partner carried two large baskets of food and gently placed them at the door of Shengxia's house, then quickly stood behind Xuelian.
Snow Lotus smiled contentedly, snuggled into her partner's arms, and waved to Sheng Xia: "Goodbye, Doctor Xia. Don't refuse me. Eat up, I've already eaten so much of your food."
Although they were given shell coins, there are plenty of shell coins everywhere. Only the Xia Wu doctor's family has such delicious food!
Can you buy that with shell coins?
That's because the witch doctor Xia is kind; she remembers this kindness.
After saying that, he patted his partner and whispered something in his ear, which made his partner laugh out loud.
Staring intently in that direction, Sheng Xia's lips twitched; for a fleeting moment, she felt an urge to gouge out her own eyes...
In just one glance, she understood the lip reading of Snow Lotus's companion.
What's that climbing a tree in the snow...?
Do we really have to go this far?
"Xiaxia's back? I brought you some food, eat it while it's hot~" Night Fragrance's voice came from afar.
In the height of summer, she turned around in surprise and saw a sedan chair draped in bright red silk, being carried steadily forward by eight strong and handsome men.
The biting wind lifted a corner of the veil, revealing a beautiful female, her figure graceful, half-leaning in her partner's arms.
"Xiangxiang, you're here too." Shengxia smiled.
Looking at her stunning beauty, he sighed inwardly, "With that figure and that face, who wouldn't be mesmerized?"
The epitome of a vixen!
With high emotional intelligence, she can maintain balance, so it's no wonder she has many partners.
also?
She said she was late, and her partner comforted her...
Never mind, it doesn't matter if I'm the first one here or not, as long as the thought is there.
Night-blooming jasmine gently lifted her eyelids, and her mate immediately delivered the food to the wolf king before quickly retreating.
The night-blooming jasmine, with her alluring voice, said, "Xiaxia, I won't bother you any longer, I'll head back now~"
Shengxia looked at the steaming white fruit in Wolf King's hand, her almond-shaped eyes crinkling into a sweet smile.
"Thank you, Xiangxiang. You're welcome."
Later, many orcs came one after another, like a flowing stream, one wave leaving and another arriving. In the height of summer, they received so much food and gifts that they couldn't refuse them all.
Sweet happiness~
The orc who came to deliver the message was a little puzzled. Everyone was running too fast. Luckily, he could fly, otherwise he probably wouldn't have been able to squeeze in.
"Xia...Xia the witch doctor, the chief wants you to go to the meeting room. The orcs from the Fierce Tiger Tribe have come to our door!"
Upon seeing Shengxia up close, the male who had been sent to deliver the message was so excited that his hands trembled and he was panting heavily as he spoke.
I didn't realize how serious my tone was.
Let the beasts misunderstand...
The orcs watching nearby were shocked upon hearing this and began to discuss it amongst themselves.
A male curiously patted the orc next to him: "The Fierce Tiger Tribe has come knocking? Is there a problem with the sweater Wind Season bought from us?"
Otherwise, he couldn't think of any reason why the Fierce Tiger Tribe would come knocking on his door to attack him.
The male looked at the orc who had spoken with the same disdainful gaze one might give a fool, and said with certainty, "What nonsense are you talking about! The sweaters we knit are the best, sturdy and warm, very good!"
He tried it out, and it was warmer than wearing several animal skins!
There can't possibly be any problems. Besides, nothing that Doctor Xia comes up with is bad.
It must be the Fierce Tiger Tribe deliberately causing trouble.
Aoki walked out with a bright smile. Hearing the beasts talking amongst themselves, he glared at them and growled in a low voice.
"What's all the noise about?! Go away! Don't disturb my babies, they just fell asleep."
The herd of beasts fell silent instantly.
————
Shengxia and Wolf King had just entered the reception room together.
The group of male orcs, who had been waiting for a long time, looked over with piercing eyes, their gazes as intense as searchlights.
"Xiaxia is here, come and sit here."
Lion Mountain pulled out the only chair with a backrest next to him, diligently spread out a soft animal hide, and looked warmly at Sheng Xia.
She blinked uncomfortably, then forced a polite smile that befitted her status as a witch doctor.
Suddenly, a warmth spread across his shoulder, followed by a comforting embrace that made him feel at ease. He heard the wolf king's gentle and pleasant voice.
"Xia, may I sit next to the chief?"
His gentle and pleasant voice reassured the beast as always, and Shengxia hugged his arm and nodded, "Mm."
Wolf King is so kind; he always appears just in time to help her out when she's helpless, embarrassed, and in need of him.
She is gentle and considerate, but doesn't talk much or seek favor.
What makes her so special to have met such a wonderful partner?
That's great!
As soon as Shengxia and Wolf King sat down, Hu Yuelang, sitting opposite them, laughed and said, "Does Doctor Xia still remember me? I am Hu Yue from the Fierce Tiger Tribe, and Tiger Girl is my cub."
Tiger Leap never imagined that one day he would use his innocent and adorable female cub to build relationships, instead of his status as a chieftain.
There was nothing he could do; he came here today seeking a beast...
The other party is a high priest; a mere chieftain certainly wouldn't take him seriously.
Shengxia had no idea what he was thinking. Thinking of Hu Niu, that adorable female whose name perfectly matched her animalistic nature, she felt a lot closer to Hu Yue.
"How is Tiger Girl?"
The next second, Tiger Leap blurted out, "She's starved to death! Our tribe encountered a much, much larger beast tide this year than in previous years, and we couldn't withstand it; our food was wasted..."
As he spoke, his eyes reddened, and he lowered his head.
The thought of that scene pained him. So much food! Enough for so many orcs to get through the snowy season, and it was all gone.
