Chapter 186: You betrayed me

Since arriving in this strange world, Teng Qian felt his life was full of surprises; once a mighty deputy commander in the great army, he now has no lackeys and spends all day being cleaned up by his own general.

He felt terribly wronged, but could a deputy commander say that?

That's absolutely not possible; when you can't resist, you should still stay as low-key as possible.

Besides, getting beaten like that—isn't it just something you get used to after a while?

After getting a beating, Teng Qian felt refreshed and followed his boss toward the previous open space.

But the next scene made him feel terrible.

What happened to our agreement to stay single together?

What happened to our agreement to be single dogs together?

What happened to our agreement to give off a charming fragrance together?

He just went out to take a beating for a while, and when he came back he saw a red-faced little female standing beside his younger brother.

Holy shit, what did you do behind my back?

Teng Qian stomped over to Teng Kun, about to say something, when he saw the little female timidly hiding behind his dog younger brother.

Teng Qian: "..."

Exhausted and unloved... Damn it, am I not more handsome and suave than this dog younger brother?

Wu Yue almost laughed out a pig-like squeal, covering her mouth and snickering.

Teng Kun rubbed his head foolishly: "Older brother, this is the little female I like."

But a flash of cunning slipped through his eyes.

Indeed, as soon as Teng Kun's words fell, the little hand of Qingcao behind him gripping his arm tightened even more.

Taking the opportunity to confess like that—how could it be any more deceitful?

The little female was completely his now.

Teng Qian: "You betrayed me..."

The tall beastman felt somewhat resentful, but more than that... was a sourness that even a level-ten gale couldn't blow away...

Teng Kun: "Older brother, don't say that—I don't like males."

Teng Qian: "Is that what I meant? You actually abandoned me to go look for a female."

Teng Kun looked at him: "You can look too—I've noticed there are more females like that around Yue; you should pay more attention."

Teng Qian sneered: "You really are my own brother—knowing the boss cares about Yue, if I often appear beside Yue, isn't that just asking for a beating?"

"Do you enjoy seeing me get beaten?"

Teng Kun: "..."

"Of course you can't say that; of course I'm happy—back when we trained on the drill ground, didn't I get beaten by you plenty?"

"But I certainly wouldn't say that out loud."

"Get to work."

The two were about to continue speaking when the beastman's low, resonant voice sounded nearby; their bodies jerked and they hurriedly shut up.

Wu Yue: "..."

Indeed, no one dared provoke the boss's authority.

The pure-human males, upon seeing the three beastman warriors standing ahead, had their dissatisfaction at being dominated by females instantly dissipate.

They obediently waited to be assigned.

Wu Yue divided the selected males into three groups and then began a day of instruction.

After all the beastmen in the three groups became familiar with the house-building process, it was already five days later.

The most skilled among them were Qing Hua's partners, likely because they had built the houses for Wu Yue and her own family.

While Wu Yue was designing, they also studied earnestly on the side, to the point that they could start building directly without needing her designs.

Qing Hua was surprised and proud, her smile growing wider.

But such joy didn't last long; one day two weeks later, a heavy rain fell again upon this forest at night.

Many who had not yet built new houses once again faced the collapse of their grass huts.
