Chapter 475: Rongdi's Successful Courtship

Here, Nan Qinghuan and Ying were explaining some matters, while over there, Rongdi brought Jiguang into his house and then slammed the door shut with a bang.

Jiguang was terrified, constantly retreating, "Don't come any closer, what do you want?"

Although she was no longer a young maiden, she still had some sense of propriety; not just anyone could make a move. Rongdi, seeing her frightened, suddenly stopped in his tracks, then took a bright red flower from his wing, knelt on one knee, and fluttered his wings again to plead for her love.

"Jiguang, I want you to be my woman. As long as you become my woman, I promise to give you a happy life. I will give you everything you want. Jiguang, don't go back; stay here with me. I will earn money to support you for a lifetime, I swear."

Rongdi actually knelt, which left Jiguang instantly bewildered. What on earth was happening? What did he like about her? She knew her own appearance—neither beautiful nor fair, just a bit tall. Moreover, hadn't this man always liked Nan Qinghuan? Why the sudden change? What was going on? "Jiguang, I now only love you, will you accept?"

Jiguang stood on the wooden bed, not panicking, just coldly looking at Rongdi, "Wait, you said you like me?"

Rongdi lifted his head and looked at her, his eyes full of affection.

Yes, when this woman helped him retrieve the thing that was stuck, his heart raced, so he thought that was love. When he first saw Nan Qinghuan, he felt the same, so it was love at first sight. But now he knows Nan Qinghuan doesn't belong to him, so he looks for someone who belongs to him.

"You say you like me, but what about Nan Qinghuan? Didn't you used to like her?"

Actually Jiguang hadn't liked Rongdi originally, but now seeing his persistence, she wants to ask what his situation with Nan Qinghuan is now. She doesn't want a man whose mind is still with another woman.

Even a Beastman must have everything belong to her; even a single hair must be hers.

Hearing this, Rongdi quickly lifted his head and met her gaze, then shook his head. "That was the past; Nan Qinghuan doesn't belong to me, I won't like her anymore. But since you helped me, my heart races. I know this is love. Jiguang, I don't care how many men you had before; now I only want you, I only want your future, be with me, and I will make you happy."

Jiguang never imagined Rongdi could be so blunt, and his words were quite melodramatic. She swallowed, "Are you serious?"

"Serious, very serious. Don't worry, I'm only staying here temporarily. Ying has prepared a new house for me; once it's built, there will be a new home. I have a place to live, I won't wrong you. You also shouldn't go back; the Giant Tribe isn't as good as here. Jiguang, stay."

Rongdi was truly sincere, and Jiguang, not a fool, could see it. She paused, frowning slightly, "Will you love me for a lifetime?"

"Of course, I will protect you."

Because of that "I will protect you" line, Jiguang suddenly felt deeply moved.

Because ever since she arrived here, she had been pretending to be a leader, with no one caring for her. The tribe members stared hungrily, waiting to mock her, trying to pull her down from the leader's seat. No one ever cared for her or promised to protect her.

Now, Rongdi actually says he can protect her.

Saying it isn't moving would be false.

This is the most sincere love she has received since she came here.

"Protect me?"

"Yes, I, Rongdi, swear by the Heavenly God that I will protect Jiguang for a lifetime, just as Ying does for Nan Qinghuan, okay?"

Jiguang bit her lip, then suddenly agreed.

When Rongdi saw her agree, he was overjoyed, sprang up and embraced her, "Jiguang, I will treat you very well, be good to you."

The two held each other tightly; at that moment, Jiguang's heart raced.

So dating a Beastman is this exciting? Rongdi was eager, couldn't wait, and prepared to undo Jiguang's clothing; he wanted to merge with her, inseparably.

Jiguang was no longer a maiden; she was open to these things, and since the partner was a Beastman—strong and able to protect her—why not?

However, she was a bit worried.

"Hey, wait..."

Rongdi had been eager, but hearing her say wait, he stopped, his expression complicated as he looked at her, "What's wrong?"

Jiguang's face was flushed with shyness; she gently stroked Rongdi's chest, realizing there wasn't much difference from a man. How could he be a Beastman? What are the Beastman's traits? Jiguang's appearance suddenly made Rongdi understand something; he just smiled, then lowered his head and whispered the secret to Jiguang, and Jiguang listened.

She felt like she wanted to crawl into a hole.

Too embarrassing.

"Hehe, don't worry, anything Ying can do I can do too. Jiguang, I want you."

Still so direct!

Spring rain moistens like oil, nourishing all things.

That day, Rongdi experienced the greatest joy of the mortal world, something he had never felt before. Rongdi was a man who could control male desire; he was different from those tribe members.

Even without finding a woman he liked, even when aroused, he could control himself and wouldn't casually seek out women to satisfy himself.

Now, he has met Jiguang.

Everything is complete.

A lone moon shines over the new sky, bringing an unimaginable expanse.

And the surging heat.

Like a gentle spring rain, yet like rain striking Plantain.

Moistening everything silently.

The Cave, with something that traverses it, now has a collision of souls; that is love's first experience.

It's beautiful; it belongs to anyone.

Rongdi held Jiguang tightly, kissing every inch of her body; now, in his eyes, she is the most beautiful aurora.

The aurora belonging solely to him.

"I love you"

Beastmen do not speak love lightly; once they say it, it lasts a lifetime. The midday sun was especially brilliant, and on the Ancient Land the sound of an Excavator digging stone echoed, bustling.

When Nan Qinghuan finished explaining everything, Ying's eyes were full of joy; he knew his woman was the smartest, so he was no longer angry, just waiting for Nan Qinghuan to give an explanation.

An explanation that would seem reasonable to him.

He gently reached out and wrapped his arms around her waist; although Nan Qinghuan's belly was now large, he still liked to hold her waist and lean close to her.

He grinned, showing a set of Da Bai teeth, "Qinghuan, this plan is truly excellent; in a year we can become strong and mighty."

Indeed, with a year, we won't fear any tribe's attacks, and all the infrastructure here—School, roads, fish ponds—can be built, and those houses will be completed.

By then, his Town will grow larger and more people will arrive.

"Exactly, so we must encourage childbirth; any couple that has children we will reward, funded by us—like free schooling plus some rice, to encourage births. Population is the foundation of our strength. Ying, what do you think?"

"Give rice?"
