"Yes, where is the fourth brother? It seems that I haven't seen him since yesterday." Hu Qiang also looked puzzled.
In the past, I could see the four brothers every day when I went out hunting.
Hu Qinggao spread his hands and shrugged, "Not only yesterday, I haven't seen him since we separated the night before yesterday. I don't know where this kid ran off to."
"Fourth brother is missing?" Hu Jiaojiao frowned, a little worried that Hu Qingyuan was in trouble.
Hu Qingshan and Hu Qinglu on the side looked at each other, and a trace of uncertainty flashed in their eyes.
"It's not missing..." Hu Qingshan raised his hand and clenched it into a fist, put it to his mouth and coughed lightly, "Ahem... The fourth brother should be looking for a female."
Thinking of what happened yesterday morning, it was not difficult for the two to guess what Hu Qingyuan was doing.
Upon hearing this, Hu Qiang and Hu Min both showed surprised expressions.
"Looking for a female? Which female? Is there any female in the tribe who likes him?" Hu Min's face was full of disbelief.
Among her four cubs, the eldest is strong, the second is good-looking, the third has a nice voice, and the fourth has no advantages at all and can only make jokes.
It is impossible for the fourth to find a partner first.
"That's right." Hu Qinggao also looked at Hu Qingshan in shock, "Brother, are you kidding?"
"Even if winter is coming, this kid is in a hurry to have cubs, it is impossible for him to find a female so quickly..."
Hu Qinggao's handsome face was almost wrinkled into a bun.
"It's true, the fourth told me in person yesterday that he hugged a female, and it is estimated that now..." Hu Qinglu started.
Before he finished speaking, everyone could guess what the rest of the words were.
Hu Qinggao's handsome face like a picture was about to crack.
"This boy is really capable! He is the first one among the four of us to find a partner. No, I will give him a good beating when he comes back. He actually secretly hooked up with females without telling us. It's so abominable!"
He suddenly felt abandoned by his brothers.
He was the last one among the four brothers to know about this!
"So... who is that female?" Hu Jiaojiao was curious. She didn't expect to eat her fourth brother's melon today.
...
In the wooden house.
Hu Jing put on her fur clothes with a red face, and saw Hu Qingyuan coming in from the door with a few fruits in his hand.
"Are you hungry? My barbecue is not very delicious. Eat some fruits first..." Hu Qingyuan scratched his head embarrassedly.
He made up his mind to go back and ask his father for advice and learn how to barbecue.
"It's okay, the fruit is delicious, I'm not picky about food."
Hu Jing shyly took the fruit and opened her mouth to take a big bite.
Halfway through the action, she suddenly stopped, thinking that there was a male watching beside her, she turned her head and smiled awkwardly, and blew on the fruit instead, and wiped it with her hand.
Then she took a small bite.
"I don't eat much..." she added.
"Eat more, you're too thin." Hu Qingyuan smiled foolishly and urged, ignoring Hu Jing's body of muscular body like a gymnast.
Hu Jing smiled and continued to eat the fruit, but her movements were still slow.
After eating two or three bites, she couldn't pretend anymore. She glanced at Hu Qingyuan who was still staring at her, turned her head and asked:
"Qingyuan, you haven't been home for a day, do you want to go back..."
"No, I'll wait for you to finish eating." Hu Qingyuan answered without thinking.
How can you leave your partner hungry and then leave by yourself?
Hu Jing was speechless. How can I finish eating if you don't leave?
"Well... I'm a little thirsty, can you go get me some water?" She found another excuse.
Hu Qingyuan quickly turned around and went out to get some water, "Okay."
As soon as Hu Qingyuan went out, Hu Jing finished the fruit in a few bites. She didn't eat much yesterday, and she was already starving. She
secretly muttered in her heart, thanking him for being so energetic without eating anything...
"The water is here, don't be in a hurry, eat slowly..." Hu Qingyuan came in with a bowl of water, and his voice stopped when he saw that only the bare cores of several fruits were left.
He... was he out for a long time just now?
After hesitating for a second, Hu Qingyuan brought the water to Hu Jing.
Hu Jing drank some water, and the hunger in her stomach finally subsided a little, but it was still far from full. She couldn't bear it any longer,
so she dragged Hu Qingyuan out to grill meat. She had a lot of food in her house, but it was all raw meat, and most of it was smoked meat that she learned from Hu Jiaojiao. Her muscles were not the result of hunger, but the result of hard work. Hu Qingyuan washed the meat, and Hu Jing started a fire with the dying fire. With the cooperation of the two, they quickly grilled the meat and started to eat. "Keep your meat away from the fire, otherwise it will get burnt." Hu Jing taught Hu Qingyuan the trick of grilling meat while eating the meat. He learned very seriously, and Hu Jing also ate very happily, because he was too busy grilling to look at her. The two of them were hungry for a day, and then they exercised for a day. They finally ate a prey weighing hundreds of pounds cleanly, and then they were full. After eating, Hu Jing remembered that she had exposed her appetite... so she simply stopped pretending. Pretending to be a weak female was really not something she could do. Hu Qingyuan didn't mind at all, but felt guilty that he made Hu Jing hungry. "Hu Jing, I have to go home and tell my parents that we are a couple. You have a good rest here." He planned to go back alone. "I'll go with you." Hu Jing immediately stood up from the ground, patted the dust off her body, and stepped forward to hold his arm. "But your body..." Hu Qingyuan hesitated, his eyes fell on the marks on Hu Jing's neck, and his ears were slightly red. Yesterday was his first time... He didn't have control, and was a little rough, leaving Hu Jing with wounds all over his body. Fortunately, Hu Jing was not angry with him. "I'm fine, let me go with you." Hu Jing looked expectant.
Hu Jing's mother died after giving birth to her, and her father was seriously injured in a hunting incident and passed away not long after.
Fortunately, her mother had a few companions. She was raised by those males, but she was not close to them. She lived alone since she was a child, and did everything by herself, never bothering other males.
She grew up relying on the supplies sent by those males, and developed this savage temper. She
made harsh words, acted violently, and behaved like a male.
If not, she would be easily bullied and excluded in the tribe.
Hu Jing actually envied Hu Jiaojiao very much. She had been spoiled by her parents and brothers since she was a child, and could do whatever she wanted. There were people standing behind her unconditionally no matter what she did.
Now that she and Hu Qingyuan have become a couple, she feels that she should sincerely go to meet his parents.
"Okay, let's go together." Hu Qingyuan certainly couldn't refuse Hu Jing's request.
The two went home immediately.
Hu Qingyuan didn't want to make her suffer, so he turned into a beast to carry her. The beastmen on the road saw the two of them together and cast gossipy glances at them.
Some beastmen even came over and asked with ambiguous eyes:
"Hu Qingyuan, Hu Jing, are you two a couple now?"
