Chapter 174: Fashion Coordination

Two days later, before dawn, a swarm of Beastmen poured into He's house.

"Ahe, are you ready? We're just waiting for you."

"Coming, coming."

He has been busy these two days handling Yun Li's dress, staying up late every night, so when A Lian and the others saw He, they couldn't help but be startled.

"He, are you okay? Have you been too tired these two days? Your eyes look a bit swollen."

A Lian's face was full of worry as she said that.

But as soon as she finished speaking, He's complexion flushed bright red, and she hurried forward trying to cover A Lian's mouth.

"I'm fine, just tired. I'll be fine after a short rest."

For some reason, He's words sounded somewhat incoherent.

A Lian, whose mouth He had covered, blinked hard, wanting to ask what was wrong, but then her gaze fell on the red mark on He's neck, and a female who had arrived stretched out a hand to pull her, indicating that there was a new male in He's house.

If they remembered correctly, that male seemed to be a Snake Beastman from Youbuluo. Oh my, did He sleep with him?

Will they also perform the Pairing Ceremony with Yun Li today?

Although the Sacrificial Activity was held because Ji Xuan, as Tribe Young Master, paired with a female, other males and females are also warmly welcomed by the Tribe if they wish to hold a Pairing Ceremony on this day.

Seeming to notice their eyes on her new Beast Husband, He suppressed the sudden shyness, released her hand, stepped back, and introduced to A Lian and the others:

"This is my new Beast Husband, Ba De. You've seen him before."

A Lian and the others looked at Ba De curiously, their faces full of 'how did he win He' expressions, making He's face flush again; she pushed them toward the door.

"Go, go, go, what are you staring at? The Sacrificial Activity is about to start. Have you delivered everything Yun Li Adult asked you to make?"

"No need for you to remind us, we sent the items over last night."

A Lian and the others weren't in a hurry to leave now; each asked, "What about you? Are you and your new Beast Husband also going to perform the Pairing Ceremony with Yun Li Adult today?"

He's already slept, yet they let someone into the house; shouldn't they seize today to hold the Pairing Ceremony, or are they planning to observe for a while longer?

He clearly knew that, giving them a light glare, "Of course we'll hold the Pairing Ceremony; am I that irresponsible female?"

A Lian and the others burst into a giggle, "Yes, yes, you're the most responsible, but you still need to pair, so dress up nicely; we'll wait for you."

He shook his head, "No need; Yun Li Adult said we should go early, she has good things waiting for us."

A Lian and the others exchanged glances, as if recalling something, but soon they pushed He to go back and dress up again, "Yun Li Adult is at home, she won't run away; since you're pairing today, wear more beast‑tooth ornaments and feathers on you; it'll look better."

How could they not know what good things Yun Li has? The items are what their families made together.

But that doesn't stop He from wearing more beast‑tooth ornaments and feathers; later adding the things Yun Li Adult gives, wouldn't that look even better?

He had no choice after their urging, went back into the house, put on all the beast‑tooth ornaments and collected feathers, then hurried to Yun Li's home.

……

Yun Li was originally puzzled why He and the others came so late; she had already assembled those ornaments early, yet they didn't show up.

"Wow! Yun Li Adult, what are all those things you're wearing?"

Unlike many Beastmen who casually string beast teeth and slap them on, or stick feathers wherever there's space on their heads,

Yun Li's body is covered with many ornaments, and each one looks far prettier on her than the ones He and the others wear.

"These are the stones and shells I asked you all to help with earlier; look, I strung them together—aren't they beautiful?"

Saying that, Yun Li walked around in front of He and the others.

"Beautiful! Yun Li Adult, we want them too! Teach us!"

If it were something else, He and the others certainly wouldn't be so bold to pull Yun Li into teaching right now; otherwise they'd have to ask their Beast Husband to bring food over first.

But these ornaments make females look more beautiful; although they only helped with ordinary stones and shells, how did Yun Li turn them into pieces as gorgeous as those made from beast teeth or bones, which normally are so precious?

"Teach, teach, teach! I'll definitely teach you, but don't be impatient; I'll put the rest on you first."

She then neatly arranged their rugged, wild‑style outfits.

"Ah, are these for us? How can that be?"

Hearing Yun Li's words, He and the others felt excited yet showed a hint of embarrassment.

After all, even though A Lian and the others made these without receiving food, the reason they didn't get food was because Yun Li taught them bamboo baskets and tailoring; they felt Yun Li was at a loss, otherwise…

Thinking of this, He and the others couldn't help but wrestle with their thoughts.

But Yun Li didn't care; she not only summoned them but also called Gong Mei and the others over, so she had to act swiftly.

"If I say it's fine, it's fine. If you're embarrassed, when I ask you for help later, just be more attentive."

Saying that, Yun Li pulled He aside to sit, "You're also pairing with the new Beast Husband today, so I'll help you first. A Lian, don't just stand there; come see how I match He's ornaments."

She said that Beastmen do have some sense of aesthetics; they can craft many beautiful beast‑tooth ornaments, but they rarely know how to wear them, just slapping them on wherever there's space, which isn't proper.

Even when wearing ornaments, they must be matched properly.

Yun Li greeted He, quickly plucking the feather she had stuck on her head, "I'll braid your hair, it'll be quick, and I won't forget to put your feather ornaments back."

He felt a lightness on her head, and, hearing Yun Li's words, responded nervously, "Okay." She trusted that Yun Li, with so many fine ornaments, wouldn't covet her few belongings, though she didn't know what Yun Li intended to do to her head.

"A Li, are you ready?"

Gong Mei's voice suddenly came from outside.

Yun Li was busy, finishing He's styling, which drew a gasp from A Lian and the others; without her saying a word, each sat there with faces full of nervous excitement and anticipation.

They did whatever Yun Li asked them to.

"Wait, it's not done yet, you come in first!"

She shouted toward the outside.
