Hearing that Silu liked it, the group collectively sighed in relief.
As long as she liked it, it was fine.
"It's really delicious; you guys should try it too. I bet you've never tasted anything like this. I think you'll like it. It might be a little spicy, so just use less," Silu advised.
Baidi began to try it as well.
It was indeed quite good.
Before, he used to just eat this directly, without sprinkling it on grilled meat, and definitely without adding it to soup. But this flavor was even better.
He liked it very much.
Heiyao also took a bite and found it truly unique. Why was it a little addictive?
Since Silu had punished him by not letting him eat, he could only watch with puppy-dog eyes, looking quite pitiful.
But no one paid attention to him!
Who told him to say the wrong thing?
This would teach him a lesson.
Seeing everyone eating so happily, only the big tiger felt wronged in his heart.
"Azhan, come try it; the flavor is really good." Silu looked at Song Zhan, feeling a bit soft-hearted.
"Really? Can I?" he said excitedly.
The little female hadn't forgotten about him.
"Go ahead. Just work more and talk less in the future, okay?" Silu said, laughing.
This big tiger was so naive and adorably clumsy.
He was just too simple-minded.
"Mmm, it's tasty, really tasty! It's so good, it makes me want to breathe fire!" Song Zhan, seeing how they were only sprinkling a little bit, thought they were overreacting and added a large amount. The moment he tasted it, his face turned red instantly!
So spicy!
But he couldn't let the little female down.
If the little female liked it, then he had to like it too!
As long as she liked it, he would like it. He wanted to eat with her.
The group continued eating with Silu.
They had to admit this new flavor of grilled meat was really quite good.
It was fragrant and appetizing.
However, since they were new to eating chili, they couldn't handle it as well as Silu.
She honestly thought this chili was amazing.
Back in her previous life, she couldn't live without spicy food. Now that she was here, there was no choice but to eat food seasoned only with salt. She was content enough with that, though, especially since they still had salt. Without it, she wouldn't have been able to eat anything.
These meats hadn't been processed properly, so they still carried that gamey taste. Without salt, it would be…
She didn't even want to imagine it. Thankfully, since arriving here, she had never lacked salt.
Now that she had found chili peppers, and since her farmland occasionally produced crops, she felt hopeful.
Hope for enjoying good food in the future.
Maybe one day, she could recreate the feeling of a grand meal like in her previous life, where she could have whatever she wanted. That thought made her really excited.
Silu ate even more than usual this time, mainly because of the chili peppers, which pleasantly surprised her and caused her to eat a lot more.
She kept eating until she couldn't take another bite.
She got up and stored all the meat they had prepared earlier in her space storage.
Heiyao, seeing this magical scene for the first time, couldn't help but be a little surprised.
It was his first time witnessing Silu's ability to store things like that. He hadn't expected females to have such special attributes. She was truly impressive.
But he was happy. Now, the little female would never go hungry. He decided he would hunt even more so that she could store more food.
After Silu finished packing away the meat, she nestled back into Cheng Mo's arms. As for the herbs and such, they still needed to be dried out.
She leaned against Cheng Mo, rubbed her belly, and closed her eyes to rest. Before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.
Cheng Mo, watching Silu's adorable face, gave her a gentle kiss on the cheek before carrying her into the cave.
Outside, the others were quietly busy with their own tasks.
Everyone was helping each other out.
For Cheng Mo, this was the first time since their reunion that he had had the chance to rest like this with Silu. Holding her soft, fragrant body in his arms, he felt incredibly content.
Before, there was no way—with Baidi and Heiyao both wanting to mate with her, he had to give them a chance. Now that they were all her mates, they could take turns.
He happily nuzzled into Silu's neck, inhaling her unique fragrance. He couldn't get enough of her.
"Mm, what are you doing? I'm so sleepy; I just want to sleep," Silu muttered groggily.
Her neck felt ticklish.
She reached up and scratched it.
"Mmm, you sleep. I'll handle it," Cheng Mo said with a smile, his lips curling up.
Silu turned over, ignoring him.
But how could he possibly behave?
After a while, Silu was no longer sleepy, and the two became entwined.
After a long while, Silu finally fell asleep, exhausted.
Cheng Mo got up to fetch water and gently cleaned her body.
Of course, as the weather was getting cooler, it was still warm for now.
It was just the beginning of autumn, so it was still a little muggy. Soon, though, they would need to start heating water.
He didn't want the little female to catch a cold.
After carefully wiping her down, Cheng Mo found some clean fur clothing for Silu and dressed her before lying down to sleep with her.
Outside, the three others were keeping watch, ensuring their safety.
Cheng Mo hadn't had a proper night's sleep in a while either.
The three outside had heard what was going on inside the cave. They knew exactly what was happening, and each of them was feeling restless.
Heiyao had already gone off to bathe.
The big tiger, on the other hand, was lying by the entrance of the cave, his massive furry head looking adorably silly. His big brown eyes seemed lazy, but he was actually paying close attention to his surroundings.
Baidi, sitting by the fire, blushing, was busy mending clothes. He was making an outfit for the little female.
Of course, whether Silu would like it or wear it was one thing, but making it was another.
However, hearing the sounds from the cave made him feel rather shy.
The big tiger, on the other hand, had his ears pricked, listening intently and thoroughly enjoying it.
He just couldn't help it; he loved Silu, no matter when or where. He adored her to no end.
…Morning came.
When Silu woke up, she saw Cheng Mo's gentle golden eyes looking at her.
"You're awake. Are you hungry? Baidi and the others have already cooked some meat soup. You can eat as soon as you get up," Cheng Mo said, smiling at her.
"I am hungry. This life is really too comfortable," Silu said with a sigh.
Wasn't it?
Waking up to a handsome man every morning, with a different one each night.
And having hot food ready the moment she woke up—this was such a comfortable life!
She didn't have to do anything, just eat, drink, sleep, and enjoy their care. No worries about work or life. It was so relaxing, like living a carefree, lazy life.
