Chapter 260: Chapter 259, Trap_1
The Watson Tribe was exceptionally lively tonight. What was supposed to be a small gathering of Ji Nuan and a few orcs turned into a large gathering of the tribe, with well-acquainted orcs sitting around one campfire. There were pots over the fire, filled with a variety of different foods.
In some orc families’ pots, noodles were being boiled, while others contained a purple fruit porridge made from the carefully preserved crispy sweet fruits.
Three large pots were arranged over the campfire of Ji Nuan and his orc friends. In one pot, they were cooking purple fruit rice, in another, they were simmering a fragrant Giggle Beast soup, and in the last one, they were preparing to stir-fry some spicy enticing Giggle Beast chunks.
The rich aroma spread over the tribe, as if a light veil had enveloped the tribe, and under this veil was a paradise for the cubs.
The chubby little ones shuffled their short legs, running to this house for a bite of rice, and that one for a sip of soup. What a pleasant sight it was.
Orcs had to hunt and fight after they became adults. Compared to the young females who were valued from birth, their lives were much more dangerous.
So apart from training time, orc fathers, orc mothers and other tribe members were rather indulgent towards the young orcs.
Of course, that was when they were not being naughty and causing trouble.
The orcs, having eaten and drunk, sat together chatting, the atmosphere was warm and beautiful. Ji Nuan looked up at the sky, and the stars blinked back at her.
For some reason, she suddenly remembered a meme she had seen in China: "What are you looking at? Got a problem with that?" She couldn’t help but fill her eyes with mirth.
"Anuan, look at your Xiu Yan, he always bullies my Fu Yi!" Qiqi’s dissatisfied complaint sounded next to her. Ji Nuan, whose thoughts were interrupted, looked over to them.
The fluffy little Fu Yi was held in Qiqi’s arms. Fu Yi wrapped his forepaws around Qiqi’s arm, rubbing it with such a pitiful look, there was even a patch of fur missing on his tail.
And that patch of fur...
Turning her head to look at Xiu Yan, as expected, the orc was frowning, a tuft of white fur was held between his fingers, an incredibly glaring sight.
Ji Nuan was exasperated. How come Brother Xiu Yan and Fu Yi always had to pester each other, neither one giving the other a break?!
Ji Nuan stood up to grab Xiu Yan’s arm, beaming as she said, "Don’t worry, I’ll deal with him right now!"
Having said that, she pulled Xiu Yan towards the tent.
A soft comfort came from behind, Qi Mo said, "Don’t be sad! Even with a bald patch, you are still the most beautiful cub in the tribe!"
Ji Nuan’s mouth twitched.
Back in the tent, the two beasts sat opposite each other. Ji Nuan looked at Xiu Yan, "Tell me, why do you always bully Fu Yi?"
Xiu Yan glanced at Ji Nuan with his deep eyes, pouted somewhat gloomily, "Who bullied him? He’s so scheming. He’s about to shed his fur soon and is afraid Qi Mo will dislike him. So he uses me to act pitiable, he just wants to hear Qi Mo say she won’t dislike him!"
Ji Nuan looked at him skeptically, "Then why did you pluck his tail fur?"
Xiu Yan protested, "He put his tail on my leg himself, I picked him up intending to throw him at Qi Mo, but as soon as I lifted him gently, that fur just fell off!"
Ji Nuan was stunned to find the beast, usually as tranquil as the clear moon, to be such a sly creature. Her inner peace was shaken!
Patted Xiu Yan’s shoulder in consolation, "Alright, alright, think of it as doing him a favor. We won’t bother about a shedding beast!"
Xiu Yan held Ji Nuan’s soft, white little paw in his hand, gave a nod, his eyes flicking a cunning glance.
