Chapter 477: The Small Town Welcomes Two New Couples

A spring breeze brushed against their faces, bringing the breath of spring. Though the scent of the forest was gone, modern seeds had fallen here and would soon take root and sprout.

Nan Qinghuan stared wide-eyed at everything before her. She never imagined Ying would say such words; it truly astonished her.

Of course, it was also unbelievable.

Tears glistened in her eyes, and her nose tingled. She simply shook her head. "No, I stopped blaming you long ago, Ying. Back then, I thought meeting you was my misfortune, but now I feel I'm the happiest woman in the world. You've given me everything, and now we have our own child. We'll watch them grow up just like every father and mother, and live a happy life. Ying, I'm already content."

"Qinghuan, thank you."

Ying was in a wonderful mood. He gently crouched down to stroke Nan Qinghuan's swollen belly. The child would be born in just over two months.

Half the reason he didn't want to go to war was because of this child.

He didn't want to be away from them when the baby was born.

So... "Qinghuan, rest assured, I will protect you and our child with my life."

He devoutly kissed Nan Qinghuan's belly, making many passersby envious. Everyone knew that Ying of Ying Town doted on his woman, Nan Qinghuan. Those not from the Tribe didn't quite believe it, since they'd never seen it, but now they truly witnessed it.

This couple was genuinely affectionate.

Nan Qinghuan was shy—so many people watching made her embarrassed. She hurriedly tried to get Ying to stand up. "Get up first."

Ying wasn't afraid of being laughed at by the crowd. In his view, doting on one's woman was nothing to be ashamed of.

"I'm not getting up. Qinghuan, what should we name our child?"

He naively pondered what name would be good for the child. Seeing how expectant he was, Nan Qinghuan certainly wasn't going to suggest something like A Chun.

She'd already thought it through. "Ying, let's call our child Ying Mengmeng. What do you think?"

"Mengmeng?"

"Mm, Mengmeng. Ying Mengmeng—it sounds nice and is easy to remember. I thought about it for a long time. Do you like it?"

Ying didn't know what "Mengmeng" meant. He quickly stood up and asked, "Qinghuan, what is Mengmeng?"

Nan Qinghuan was about to explain when a loud voice came from not far away.

"Nan Qinghuan!"

The couple looked over. What they saw was quite something—why? Because Rongdi and Jiguang were walking toward them hand in hand.

Seeing this, Nan Qinghuan understood at once: Rongdi had already won Jiguang over.

Ying let out a hearty laugh. "Qinghuan, looks like our Town will have another couple getting married."

Rongdi pulled Jiguang along by the hand as they approached. Well-fed and content, he seemed very docile, without a trace of aggression.

"Ying, Qinghuan."

Nan Qinghuan pretended not to understand. "Tell me, Rongdi, have you found the one you like?"

Rongdi gave an awkward, silly-looking smile. "Heh heh, Qinghuan, I've found the woman I love. It's Jiguang. We're together now. I want her to stay here with me. Ying, can you let Jiguang stay?"

"Let Jiguang stay?"

Ying frowned slightly. Before, the plan was for Jiguang to leave their place. Now she wanted to stay—but what if she still had thoughts of attacking them? Rongdi was so bewitched by the woman that he couldn't see clearly, but Ying had to think it through.

So... he paused, his eyes scrutinizing Jiguang with a strange look. Stars sparkled in Jiguang's eyes—the look of being in love. Ying could now tell when a woman was happy or not.

It was clear she was quite satisfied with Rongdi.

"Jiguang, you're the chieftain of the Beastman Tribe. What can you do staying here? Will your people agree?"

Hearing this, Jiguang understood what Ying meant. She came from the modern world and was smarter than these Ancient People. She also knew that Ying was no ordinary Ancient Person.

Nan Qinghuan had educated him well, making him very shrewd. Of course, his suspicion was normal—she wasn't offended.

"It's like this. My man and I have already decided. I'll take Rongdi back to the Tribe first, settle everything there, and then we'll return. Rest assured, Ying. Now that Rongdi and I are together, he's a man of Ying Town, so I am too. There's a saying in my hometown: 'Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog.' Now that I'm with Rongdi, wherever he is, I'll be. We won't be enemies."

Jiguang wanted to show Ying that she no longer had her old ambitions. In the past, she had indeed thought of attacking this place and had put considerable effort into it. But after everything that happened here, she realized she couldn't do it.

She couldn't conquer them. So why fight a losing battle? As long as she could live a good life, have a man who cherished her, and have a happy family...

What else was she fighting for? Besides, this time she planned to take Rongdi back to the Tribe to let those people know she had backing, so they wouldn't try to overthrow her as chieftain.

Ying heard her words but remained silent. Nan Qinghuan was about to say something when Rongdi interrupted. "Qinghuan, Ying, rest assured. She's my woman now. We won't be enemies. She's promised me that the Giant Tribe and we will coexist peacefully—no more war."

"That's right, Nan Qinghuan. Isn't this the outcome you wanted most? What, do you two have such narrow vision?"

"Nonsense. Of course I'm not distrusting you. Besides, I'm not afraid of your Giant Tribe attacking us. We have plenty of people and strong soldiers. Fighting us would be two words: seeking death."

"Nan Qinghuan, can't you speak more nicely?"

Nan Qinghuan suddenly laughed. "Alright, I'll stop. Jiguang, come with me. I have some private words to say to you."

With that, Nan Qinghuan slowly walked to one side. Jiguang knew what she wanted to say and also walked over slowly. The two women stood with their backs to the men, about to talk about who knows what.

Seeing that Rongdi was in a good mood, Ying knew he had already vented. Beastmen without women tended to have irritable tempers. Now it seemed Rongdi was very satisfied with Jiguang's body today.

Noticing many kiss marks on his neck, Ying couldn't help teasing him. "So, when are you planning to get married? Youchao Xuan is already preparing to marry Qingfeng. What about you? Want to do it together with them? I can hold a lively wedding for you. The Town has been built for a while now—it's time for some happy events to celebrate. What do you think?"
