Chapter 28: Tonight, Who Does She Want?

Yun Li felt possessive of their things; Leng Xiao wasn't just not annoyed, he was delighted.

Because only females were qualified to occupy their things, the more she cared, the more it showed she was satisfied with them.

After returning home, Leng Xiao, following Leng Xiu's instructions, began preparing some food for the females.

Although A Li went out for a trip and hadn't learned anything before being forced to stop studying, she had been running for so long, she must be hungry.

"Let's eat this wild buffalo—roast the leg, and use the other meat for pan-fried, skewers, stir-fried, stewed...."

Yun Li wanted a whole-buffalo feast.

Even without modern seasonings to remove gaminess, fortunately, as Leng Xiao and they said, the meat of the fierce beasts among wild animals is so good that if it's edible, its quality is already fine, needing no gaminess removal—just a pinch of salt makes it delicious.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Now that Leng Xiao had Yun Li's approval, he felt energized to do anything; not to mention her whole-buffalo feast, even if she wanted a whole-pig or whole-deer feast, he would prepare it for her.

Yun Li watched him busily flitting about, went inside to get spider silk for the remaining fabric, wiped Leng Xiao's forehead sweat, and while wiping asked, "Should we wait for A Qing and your brother to return before we work together? Doing all this alone is too tiring for a beastman."

As for her, she just waits for food; unless they're busy and can't cook for her, or she's bored enough to want to cook, normally she just stays by the males and watches them work.

"No need!"

Leng Xiao couldn't say he couldn't do it in front of her, especially with her by his side.

Just now she was watching him from the side, full of energy; now, with her caring and wiping his sweat, Leng Xiao instantly felt as if injected with chicken blood, his movements becoming even more swift.

"Thank you for your hard work, A Xiao; eat more tonight too."

Yun Li didn't help much, but she gave plenty of emotional value.

After Leng Xiu returned, she also used that trick to call him over to help; then the two males competed like rivals, and in less than two hours, aside from the beef leg roast and stew taking a bit longer, the skewers, pan-fried meat, steamed meat, etc., were already on the stone table.

Yun Li, biting a skewer, sat by the fire and asked them, "Aren't you going to eat together?"

The roasted beef leg is already done; why are they still cooking other meat?

"You eat first; we'll eat after you finish."

Leng Xiu reached out and touched her head; being able to get this close to Yun Li still feels like a dream to him.

Sitting on the other side, Leng Xiao's emotions became more overt; seeing Yun Li like the skewers, he prepared more meat skewers, put them on the fire, turning them while feeding her the already-made beef skewers, saying:

"A Li, eat quickly; there's still more here."

Yun Li couldn't eat that fast; she casually fed each of them a bite, saying, "You also eat some."

Leng Xiu bit off most of the skewer in one gulp, which made the later-fed Leng Xiao furious; he wolfed down the remaining meat and acted coquettish toward Yun Li, saying:

"A Li, give me another bite; I barely got anything just now."

Yun Li:....... Do I look like a blind person to you?

But she still fed Leng Xiao a bite; this time he slowly ate the whole skewer, leaving none for Leng Xiu.

Leng Xiu frowned upon seeing this and said, "A Li, don't indulge him,"

"after all, he's not handless; why does he need to be fed?"

Leng Xiao shot his brother a provocative glance, knowing he couldn't bring himself to act coquettish with A Li.

So he continued to act coquettish with Yun Li, saying, "A Li, could you feed me another bite? I'm a bit hungry too."

Yun Li was still busy eating herself; hearing Leng Xiao say that, she couldn't help but frown, wanting to refuse.

But Leng Xiao, holding the freshly grilled skewer, brought it to Yun Li's lips, saying, "Look, I have no hands to eat; A Li, could you feed me another bite?"

While biting the freshly grilled meat skewer, Yun Li, out of respect for the skewer, gave him this favor.

Leng Xiao chewed slowly, smiling at the female face-to-face while turning his back on his brother, feeling inwardly pleased beyond measure.

His brother continued to steady him, after all, he is A Li's second beast husband.

Nonetheless, perhaps provoked by Leng Xiao's taunt, Leng Xiu drew the bone knife from his waist and sliced off a few small pieces from the roasted beef leg into a bowl.

"A Li, turn your head."

"Hmm?"

Yun Li turned her head, and received Leng Xiu's feeding; having just eaten a piece, the male reached out and wiped the oil from her mouth corner.

"I'm feeding you; he doesn't need to worry, he won't starve."

Leng Xiao snorted lightly at those words, "A Li, turn around; I'll feed you too."

A beastman can't eat meat fed by two males; after her neck got sore from turning, Yun Li simply ate her own food, refusing to let them feed her or to feed them.

In this round, Leng Xiao could be said to have beaten his brother, but Leng Xiu isn't a vegetarian either.

While Yun Li was drinking the stew, he had Leng Xiao fetch other things; when Leng Xiao returned, he saw Yun Li feeding the bone-and-beef-broth from her bowl to Leng Xiu.

Leng Xiao: So angry!!!

Yun Li's meal was thus finished in the brothers' secret competition.

When it came time to clean up Yun Li's leftovers, Mu Qing returned; seeing the extra things in the house, he immediately knew what had happened.

He didn't say much, just glanced at the two swiftly-moving brothers and said:

"I came late; you've already finished eating."

Upon hearing that, Yun Li hurriedly handed over the remaining roasted meat for him to take.

"There's still some left; eat a bit first as a snack, and I'll make more later."

Mu Qing glanced, his gaze deep and fixed on the two brothers here, gave a soft "hmm," and said to Yun Li:

"I brought back several fierce beasts with good meat tonight; when you're hungry, I'll roast those beasts for you to eat."

Yun Li smiled and nodded.

That night, after Yun Li finished bathing, the stone house that originally only she and Mu Qing occupied suddenly had two more males crowd in.

Mu Qing stood beside the bed with the two males, appearing as if waiting for her to come over.

"Tonight, who will accompany you, A Li?"

The bed can hold at most two and a half beastmen; if Yun Li chooses either Leng Xiao or Leng Xiu, the other two would have to sleep on the floor.

Yun Li gave them a once-over, saying, "Tonight it's still A Qing; later you can take turns accompanying me to sleep."

Of course, it can only be pure sleeping companionship.

She isn't bold enough to want a threesome, nor bold enough to have sex with one of them while the other two watch.

Mu Qing knew it would be this way; A Li is such a thoughtful female, she's using this method to uphold his dignity as the eldest.
