Chapter 382: Ying, You Have Changed

Ying's words completely baffled Rongdi; if it were before, they certainly wouldn't have wanted to say much more to Ying, but now it's different—what Ying said actually seems reasonable to them.

Indeed, those people only know how to grow Cotton and sift sand—how can they survive? Seeing that Rongdi fell silent, Ying stepped forward and patted his shoulder. "So this is my thought: attacking those people is easy to wipe out, and it's also easy, but how will those people survive? Rongdi, your Tribe is getting larger and larger, and mine is too. I already feel some pressure; having too many people isn't a good thing. If we're not prepared enough, trouble will arise. Do you understand?"

These words made Rongdi fully understand; Ying is no longer the Ying of before—he thinks more thoroughly than he used to.

Realizing this, he immediately lowered his head. "Fine, since you've already decided, I won't say more. You know I'm doing this for your sake. Rest assured, I'll give you an answer on this matter. How dare you assassinate someone in my Tribe—you're courting death."

"Alright, go back."

Over here, Ying and Rongdi turned and prepared to come over; over there, Nan Qinghuan was already waiting with Axi and the others.

Seeing Nan Qinghuan standing there, Rongdi felt very envious; when will he ever have such a happy, warm home?

"Go, Qinghuan is waiting for you."

"Ying."

Nan Qinghuan and Ying held hands, thanked Rongdi, and then prepared to leave. After they departed, Rongdi stood there, his eyes full of envy.

He envied Ying for having such a wonderful woman.

He envied him for having a home.

And Rongdi, he was still alone.

Li Xiang saw the envy in Rongdi's eyes and hurried forward. "Chief, are you very envious of them?"

Rongdi's gaze immediately shifted away from them, and, with a tsundere tone, he said, "Who's envious? Didn't you see what Ying used to be—a hero? Now he's scared of everything, being kept by a woman, that's not good at all. I'm not envious. Have you caught the person?"

Li Xiang now knew Rongdi's tsundere temperament—he clearly yearns for it, but he pretends to be hard‑hearted.

"Not yet; they haven't returned."

"Hmph, daring to kill on my turf—courting death. When I catch them, I'll eat that person, and see if they dare to cause trouble in my Tribe again?"

Leaving that remark, Rongdi strode toward the outside. "Let's go drink; we won't return until we're drunk."

Rongdi's pretended nonchalance made Li Xiang suddenly think the man was rather cute.

He shook his head, watching Rongdi's departing back. The Tribe's days were gradually improving, and Duo Luo needed to find a woman for Rongdi.

Thinking about it seemed unbelievable; how could he have ever considered Rongdi before? He only wanted to leave this damned place, taking Nan Qinghuan with him.

But unexpectedly, he had integrated here and even started a family.

Although he hadn't established a career, he had nonetheless found his worth here.

"Li Xiang, the chief is calling you…"

Not far away, Duo Luo arrived, in a good mood because they had built a new Treehouse; from now on she could live in it with Li Xiang and have a cute baby next year.

That is her wish.

She really wants to make it happen.

"Li Xiang, go have a drink. We finished building a new house tonight; are you happy?"

Duo Luo knows he is different from other men, so she does everything she can to make him happy; she wants to keep him here with her.

Never part again!

Li Xiang looked at Duo Luo's insecure expression and reached out to pinch her little cheek.

"Silly girl, of course I'm happy. This is our home together. I promise you, when winter passes and next spring arrives, I'll build you a taller, larger Tulou, okay?"

Hearing this, Duo Luo was naturally delighted; she nodded vigorously, then hugged Li Xiang tightly, almost to the point of crying.

"Alright, I'll listen to anything you say; just don't leave me, Li Xiang. I really, really like you."

Duo Luo is a High Priest, once giving off an aloof aura, but now she's like a little girl in front of Li Xiang.

She lacks security and longs for a man's happiness.

She hopes Li Xiang can give her enough security.

She knows she isn't as beautiful as Nan Qinghuan, nor as capable, but she's willing to learn; whatever Nan Qinghuan can do, she's willing to do too.

She only asks Li Xiang not to leave her.

That's all!

These words moved Li Xiang's heart; he never imagined he would meet and know the Ancient People, let alone fall in love with them now.

He gently cupped Duo Luo's face; he once thought she was too dark and could never like her, but now he finds her quite cute.

Very cute!

"Silly girl, I like you too, but look, we're now a proper pair. Rongdi is still alone; is there any way to get him married?"

These words made Duo Luo stare at him in astonishment.

"What are you saying, get Rongdi married?"

Li Xiang nodded. "Exactly. I can see he envies Ying and his junior sister; he must also want a home. Duo Luo, can you do something, or what kind of woman does Rongdi like?"

Li Xiang even thought about finding a woman for Rongdi; Duo Luo knows Rongdi's temperament gives little hope, she shakes her head helplessly, "It's hard. He used to like Nan Qinghuan, even traded things for her, almost ended up fighting Ying, as you saw. Now he still likes Nan Qinghuan; other females don't interest him."

He doesn't think she's unappealing.

There are always exceptions.

Right? Suddenly, Li Xiang thought of a good idea.

"How many Tribes are around here? Do you think you could meet another woman on the market where you trade things?"

"What, another woman?"

When Ying and Nan Qinghuan rode the Carriage back to Ying Tribe, the sky gradually brightened.

Now that the road was paved, the Carriage traveled very smoothly, and Nan Qinghuan had slept the whole way.

She lay safely in Ying's arms, sleeping soundly.

Ying simply held her, gently stroking her slightly rounded belly; thinking of the assassin that night, a murderous intent flickered in his eyes.

Although he won't move You Su Tribe, at least not now, daring to assassinate him is unforgivable, so that person must die!

The Carriage soon stopped; although Axi was pregnant, she was still very lively, about to pull back the curtain and call out to Nan Qinghuan that they'd arrived, but Ying stopped her.

Axi saw Ying make a gesture to stay silent, and Axi instantly dared not to shout wildly; that expression was somewhat cute, so she whispered, "Sorry, I didn't know she fell asleep."
