Lin Qiu held the leaves and took a sip of water. The sweet stream water quenched her thirst and calmed her mind a little.
She looked at Ling Yun on the side and kept staring at him, as if this person would disappear if she lost sight of him.
"What are you looking at?" Ling Yun was a little nervous under Lin Qiu's gaze. "I will try my best to be careful and not hurt you."
Lin Qiu moved closer to Ling Yun and whispered, "Ling Yun, I'm sorry."
"Why are you telling me this?"
"I shouldn't have treated you like that. I shouldn't have left you. I'm sorry. I won't do that again." Lin Qiu finally said what had been in her heart for more than ten years.
It’s really great that I can say sorry to Ling Yun.
"Don't talk nonsense. It's my fault. I should have stopped you. Even if I couldn't stop you, I shouldn't have let you leave with them alone. It's all my fault." Ling Yun felt very guilty. As a male, he actually let his female fall into such danger. He was really useless.
Seeing Ling Yun putting the blame on himself, Lin Qiu felt even more guilty: "No, it was my willfulness that prevented you from coming with me. It was also me who insisted on going with them. I deserve to be in this situation now."
As she spoke, she couldn't help sobbing.
Lin Qiu hadn't cried for a long time, but in front of Ling Yun, she became spoiled again.
"Xiao Qiu, don't say that. If females are hurt, it's all because of the males' incompetence! It's me and Song Mu who failed to take good care of you!"
Ling Yun crushed the herbs in his hand to extract juice and gently applied it on Lin Qiu's wound.
He gently pinched one of Lin Qiu's ankles and applied medicine to her.
Lin Qiu followed his gaze and saw the animal pattern belonging to Song Mu on his ankle.
"Songmu...is he okay?"
Ling Yun's movements faltered: "He, I don't know either."
When talking about his brother, Ling Yun's face turned pale.
When learning that Lin Qiu was leaving with the rabbit tribe and would not allow them to follow, Song Mu did something that no one could understand. He actually forced himself to mate with Lin Qiu.
In the beast world, except for wandering beastmen, after a male and a female have sex, a beast pattern belonging to the male will appear on the female's body. As long as the beast pattern is there, the male is there.
From then on, if a male stays too far away from a female with his animal pattern, his body will gradually decay and eventually die.
This is the will of the Beast God, who gives females a means of restraint in order to balance the disparity in power between males and females.
