Chapter 69

"Adi, you said I'm different from the females. How am I different?" Si Lu curiously looked at Bai Di and asked.

What could be so different?

"Indeed, you're different. Many females wouldn't care for, look after, or think of the males like this, not even their own partners. Of course, that doesn't mean it's wrong, after all, males exist to survive, and if they have a partner, their role is to take care of the females and the cubs."

"As for females, they don't have someone like you, who's so good to her beast husband, giving the best and the most precious to him," Bai Di said.

"Of course, our Lu Lu is not only good-looking, but she also has a good heart. How can those females compare to Lu Lu?" Cheng Mo said.

That's true! I have great taste in finding such a good female.

Hehe. "Yes, Lu Lu is one of a kind!" Hei Yao's eyes sparkled.

The divine beast Lord, he really felt lucky to have met such a good female.

"That's right, our Lu Lu is the best!" Song Zhan also said with pride.

With that attitude, his proud tail might as well be about to shoot up to the sky.

Si Lu looked at the others, all acting so smug, and smiled helplessly.

She wasn't as great as they said!

What she did was for everyone, and also for herself. She did things based on her heart, simply following her nature!

"Alright, stop complimenting me, I'm getting embarrassed. Of course, this water thing must remain secret. I can't let other beasts know, or it'll really cause trouble!" Si Lu said seriously.

They were all her partners, the people closest to her, and those whom she trusted most. Of course, she'd share the good things with them, but if others found out about this matter, it could really cause trouble.

She understood the saying "A man with a treasure is in danger."

Of course, if others found out, not only would she be in danger, but those around her would be too.

"Yeah, yeah, don't worry. We won't let other beasts know."

"Me too. This must be kept secret!"

"Yeah, definitely!"

"I'll never say a word!"

The few of them nodded firmly.

"Mm, I'm hungry again, I want to eat roast meat," Si Lu smiled and said.

The others began preparing a late-night snack for her.

So nice!

She hoped they could stay safe like this forever.

While Si Lu ate the roast meat they made for her, she also sipped the meat soup.

They ate a little too.

Si Lu leaned against Bai Di, letting him wipe her mouth, and she smiled contentedly at everyone around her.

After they were all full, they quietly roasted the fire and looked at the night sky.

The others ate the leftovers from Si Lu's meal. They never wasted food, and of course, they didn't let food stay overnight. That was what Si Lu said—leftover food wasn't good for the body the next day.

So, they always finished the food from the day, and then went hunting the next morning.

Every word Si Lu said, they listened to patiently, kept it in mind, and followed it.

It seemed like a tacit understanding had formed.

She spoke, and they listened seriously, noting it down and making corrections.

Si Lu chatted with them until she fell asleep next to Bai Di.

Bai Di looked at the little female resting on his shoulder, his starry eyes full of tenderness. It was so good to watch over her like this. Seeing her healthy was his purpose in life.

He carefully picked up Si Lu and started walking toward the cave.

Of course, the other three beast husbands only looked on longingly, not daring to compete for the spot.

After all, they didn't want to disturb the little female.

Anyway, they would take turns.

Bai Di gently placed Si Lu on the grass piled with animal skins and lay down beside her, positioning himself on the outer side. He pulled her into his arms, inhaling the faint scent of the girl and closing his eyes.

Holding her, soft and fragrant, he was completely indulged.

Outside, the other three were still tending to the fire, without saying a word!

Hei Yao had found a big stone and was working with the snake skin he'd retrieved earlier, making clothes.

He was planning to make clothes for Si Lu from his snake skin. The thought of his snake skin being worn by the little female made him excited and happy.

His animal skin was light, soft, waterproof, and windproof, perfect for making clothes.

Though he hadn't made clothes before, he had watched Bai Di do it many times, and after a few tries, he knew how to do it, though he hadn't tried it yet.

The big tiger next to him looked at Hei Yao making clothes and turned his head, lying next to the fire with his eyes closed.

He didn't lie at the cave entrance anymore because the little female had clearly told him in the morning not to eavesdrop or spy. Though he hadn't spied, he still listened to the little female.

He didn't dare to anger her again.

He was really afraid, afraid that one day, the little female would be angry with him and stop liking him.

He would behave.

Cheng Mo also didn't speak. From time to time, he looked at Hei Yao.

He didn't expect this guy to be so thoughtful sometimes.

Feeling a bit bored, Cheng Mo took out some animal skins and started making shoes or socks for Si Lu, since she always walked barefoot, which certainly wasn't ideal.

Of course, no beast wore shoes or socks, so he had to make do with what he had.

He remembered Si Lu had mentioned this a few times before, so now, with some free time, he decided to make them.

Since Hei Yao was making clothes, he wouldn't be left behind.

Thinking of Si Lu's description and the size of her feet, he began his work.

He was using rabbit fur, which was soft and perfect for making these items.

Of course, he had already memorized her foot size, and not just that, but also the rest of her measurements.

So, the sizes were the easiest part.

While thinking, he continued working.

Hei Yao and Cheng Mo were silently working, one making clothes, the other making shoes and socks, with the big tiger asleep in the middle.

It was a very harmonious scene.

Si Lu, meanwhile, was peacefully asleep in Bai Di's arms!

She didn't wake up until dawn. Stretching lazily, she turned over, and Bai Di looked at her with gentle eyes.

"Good morning, Adi," Si Lu said, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Mm, good morning, Lu Lu," Bai Di leaned over and kissed her forehead, smiling in satisfaction.
