I Transmigrated as a Villainess to Raise Babies, and My Beast Husbands Are Fighting Madly Over Me!-Chapter 99: Qiao Qiao is Very Angry, and the Consequences are Severe
Feiyan looked at his cub in confusion.
"What’s wrong? Do you want to eat this? Father can..."
Before Feiyan could finish, Qiao Qiao grabbed his hand and guided it toward Qiao Xixi’s bowl.
"Mother, hurry and try the meat Father picked for you."
Feiyan was taken aback. "Qiaoqiao, your mother can get her own food."
Qiao Qiao froze and glanced at her father. ’This cub is at her wit’s end!’
Qiao Xixi also found it a bit awkward to have Feiyan serve her, so she moved the piece of meat into Qiao Qiao’s bowl.
"Your father meant to give that to you. Now sit down and eat properly."
Qiao Qiao was very angry, and the consequences would be severe.
Just as Feiyan, craving the fried fish, picked up a piece and was about to pop it into his mouth, Qiao Qiao whined, "Father, the beast-fish meat has bones. Can you pick them out for me?"
Feiyan paused. How could he refuse his adorable cub’s request?
"Okay, Father will pick them out for you."
Feiyan patiently picked out the fish bones. By the time he had clumsily removed them all and placed the bowl in front of Qiao Qiao, he saw that his little cub was already eating with gusto, her mouth slick with oil and her little belly round and full.
"Qiaoqiao, can you still eat?"
"Yes!"
Qiao Qiao lifted the bowl and stuffed the beast-fish meat into her mouth, packing her little cheeks full.
"Okay, Father, you can eat now too."
"Okay."
When Feiyan eagerly went to eat, he discovered that only a few Yellow Earth Fruits were left in the pot. Not a single piece of the fragrant meat remained!
Jin Ling kindly pointed to the raw meat in the room. "If you’re not full, you can eat some raw meat. That’s more suitable for males."
Feiyan’s mouth twitched. ’Raw meat is suitable for males? Then why were you all eating so much of the cooked stuff just now?’
"Father, for you."
Feiyan looked down and saw Qiao Ang placing a piece of fried fish in his bowl.
"Go on, Father. Eat."
Feiyan was on the verge of tears. His cub was so thoughtful.
He picked up the fish and took a bite. The crispy texture, the tender meat... It was delicious!
Qiao Ang let out a satisfied burp. He was simply too full to eat anymore.
"I’m so full."
All three cubs, their bellies round and full, lay down on the sofa.
Qiao Xixi smiled and pulled them up. "You can’t lie down right after eating. You’ll get a stomachache."
While one side was warm and harmonious, the atmosphere on the other had dropped to a freezing point.
Youyue’s eyes were swollen from crying, and Bai Lei’s brows were tightly furrowed.
Ma Qing, waiting outside the door, called toward the stone house, "Clan Leader Bai Lei, it’s getting dark. We should send her out now."
Youyue’s face turned pale, and she tightly clutched Bai Lei’s animal-hide clothes.
’I hate Qiao Xixi to death,’ she thought. ’It’s all her fault I have to leave the tribe. What’s even more hateful is that I still can’t speak. I don’t even know what that Wandering Beast did to me.’
But she was truly terrified. How could a lone female like her survive the extreme cold of the winter days?
As if having made up his mind, Bai Lei took Youyue’s hand and walked toward the door.
"Alright, let’s go now."
Ma Qing only escorted them to the main gate and didn’t follow any further. The Clan Leader had only said to drive Youyue out and forbid her from re-entering the tribe, which was enough.
After Bai Lei had led Youyue a little farther away, he lowered his voice. "Don’t worry, I’ll find a way to get some beastmen to protect you."
Youyue bit her lip. She wanted to speak but couldn’t make a sound. She was frantic with anxiety.
She tugged on Bai Lei’s hand, looking at him pleadingly as if to say, ’Find a way to let me return to the tribe.’
Bai Lei frowned and led her to a small cave they had previously found for shelter.
"I’ll figure something out. Until then, you stay here."
Seeing the situation was hopeless, Youyue let her hands fall in despair.
Bai Lei placed some food inside the cave. "I’ll go get you some water. I’ve already spoken with a few males from the tribe. They’ll come straight here to protect you after they return from their hunt."
Youyue bit her lip and nodded.
After telling her not to wander off, Bai Lei turned and left the cave.
Just as Bai Lei left, a yellow fox beastman walked over. His leg appeared to be injured, and he stumbled and fell just outside the cave.
Startled by the noise outside, Youyue carefully hid in the shadows to observe. When she saw that it was an injured male beastman, she boldly stepped out.
The male beastman was lying on his side, revealing the beast soul star-level on his arm. He was a beastman with a 4-star beast soul. Although not particularly high, it wasn’t bad either.
Hearing the movement, Gu Li looked up and saw a cute, delicate little female looking at him fearfully.
"Don’t be afraid. I won’t hurt you."
Youyue gave him a smile, then knelt and helped him into the cave.
Gu Li hadn’t expected the little female to help him and looked at her gratefully.
Youyue took out a clean animal hide to wipe the wound on his leg. Her gentle movements made Gu Li’s face turn bright red, and he was momentarily at a loss.
"Why aren’t you saying anything?"
Youyue’s eyes dimmed. She pointed to her throat and shook her head.
Gu Li felt a pang of regret. ’This cute little female can’t speak?’
"Are you a little female living here alone? Where’s your mate?" After speaking, Gu Li looked at her hair. There wasn’t a single mismatched strand. ’She doesn’t have a mate yet.’ This realization made Gu Li’s mood lift.
"Did you get separated from your tribe’s beastmen? Don’t be afraid. Once my injury heals, I’ll take you back to my tribe."
Hearing this, Youyue’s hands stilled. She tilted her head and looked at him, as if asking which tribe he was from.
Gu Li smiled. "I’m from the Silver Tribe. It’s very close to here. To thank you, I’ll take you back to the tribe."
Youyue’s pupils flickered. She suddenly grabbed Gu Li’s face and gave him a kiss, then shyly ran out of the cave.
Gu Li was stunned by the kiss, and now even his neck was red.
Once outside the cave, the shy smile on Youyue’s face instantly vanished. Seeing Bai Lei approaching from a distance, she ran forward to intercept him.
"What is it? Did you run into danger?"
Youyue shook her head, then pointed toward the cave and gestured repeatedly. It took a long time before Bai Lei finally understood.
"You’re saying there’s a male beastman from the Silver Tribe with a 4-star beast soul in the cave, and you’re going to rely on him to get into the Silver Tribe?"
Youyue nodded.
Bai Lei frowned, feeling it wasn’t quite right. But he truly had no better way to get her back, so he could only let Youyue try.
Taking a step back, if Youyue really were to mate with him, a 4-star beast soul wasn’t bad. Although it couldn’t compare to the powerful experts in their own tribe, if he could get Youyue into the Silver Tribe, it didn’t matter if he became her mate.
"Alright. Be careful, then. I’ll have the other male beastmen stay farther away. If you’re in danger, go find them."
Youyue nodded, took the water, and returned to the cave.
Gu Li had already fallen asleep from exhaustion. Youyue set down the water and walked to his side. Looking at his eyes and brows, which bore a slight resemblance to Feiyan’s, she revealed a cold, meaningful smirk.
