Chapter 64: Reconciled as Before

"A Li!"

Seeing Yun Li collapse onto the ground, Leng Xiao, after beating up his older brother, didn't have time to wonder why Mu Qing wasn't here; he rushed over, picked up the female, and just wanted to take her to Silver Granny's.

"Are you sick? I'll hold you and take you to see the Witch Doctor."

"I'm fine, go find Mu Qing quickly!"

After Yun Li recovered from that dizziness, she could no longer see the snake head on the roof; she quickly grabbed Leng Xiao and said, "I just saw A Qing's beast form; you hurry and chase after him. Tell him I was just momentarily frightened, I don't mean to dislike him."

A prehistoric giant python appeared alive before her; she just didn't react in time, which caused her to faint.

Now that she has come to her senses, she will definitely have Mu Qing explain clearly; she is not afraid of him, and she also does not dislike his beast form.

Leng Xiu, walking behind, spoke up at this moment: "I'll go look for him; you stay in the Silver Eagle Tribe, he won't go far."

What's more important is that his face is bruised from being beaten by his own younger brother, and he doesn't want Yun Li to see it.

"Okay, A Xiu, go quickly."

Yun Li urged Leng Xiu to hurry; she was really afraid that the incident of her fainting at the sight of Mu Qing's beast form would make him lose heart and just leave.

Leng Xiu said, "Take good care of her," then turned and left again.

……

Until nightfall, Leng Xiao had boiled the milk and was putting the milk in the courtyard to cool.

Just then, Mu Qing entered the courtyard with Leng Xiu; upon seeing Mu Qing, Leng Xiao snorted and said, "I thought you'd just come back and leave again."

Although A Li was frightened by his beast form, he is still her beast husband, right?

He abandoned his female outside, wandering for so long; just now he's back—does he intend to abandon his female again and not care for her?

Mu Qing silently looked toward the house; after a moment he said softly, "I originally planned to stay hidden behind the scenes to protect A Li."

But Leng Xiu came over and said that A Li did not dislike his beast form.

Needless to say, Mu Qing's heart was moved upon hearing that; but A Li's reaction after seeing his beast form kept lingering in his mind.

Perhaps A Li truly does not dislike his beast form in her heart, but she is just afraid.

Thinking of this, Mu Qing felt a wave of bitterness in his heart.

Upon hearing that, Leng Xiao let out a light scoff: "You don't need to sacrifice so much. A Li hasn't slept yet; she's been waiting for you to come back."

Mu Qing immediately lifted his head, staring at Leng Xiao without letting go.

Being stared at like that, Leng Xiao's brows also kept furrowing: "What are you staring at me for? Go in—you've already made A Li wait over two months; now how much longer do you want to make her wait?"

Leng Xiu also gave Mu Qing a push.

Mu Qing walked into the house with stiff steps, one deep, one shallow.

In the courtyard, Leng Xiu patted Leng Xiao's shoulder and said, "You've become more mature than before."

He used to only know how to compete for affection and be jealous, but now he actually wants to speak up for Mu Qing in front of Yun Li.

Leng Xiao glanced at his older brother and said, "You think I'm speaking well of Mu Qing in front of A Li? You're overthinking it. I just... I just don't want A Li to be hurt, nor do I want her to suffer."

These days, many males have come to the Silver Eagle Tribe to show devotion to A Li.

In terms of strength, besides that Ge and the Young Master Xuan, who could catch his eye, other males, although each has their own merits, are ultimately somewhat inferior to the first two.

As for that Young Master Xuan, I don't know what he means; saying he likes her, yet he still creates opportunities for A Li and Ge.

But if we say he doesn't like her, whenever his younger brother Ji Chen drops by his place for no reason, he comes over to stop his brother from getting close to A Li.

Could it be... that he likes his brother?

Leng Xiao told Leng Xiu everything that had happened these days.

Inside the house, Yun Li was indeed not asleep; she had been waiting for Mu Qing, but she was dozing off, her head bobbing, almost bumping her chin on the table, when someone steadied her.

"A Qing"

Seeing that it was Mu Qing, Yun Li's face instantly lit up with delight, and she reached out to hug him.

"Are you angry? I didn't intentionally faint; your beast form is indeed quite large, it gave me a big fright."

But I'll get used to seeing it more often; you suddenly left, and I thought you wouldn't come home again.

"Won't."

Mu Qing interrupted her.

Upon hearing the female say that line "I'll get used to seeing it in the future," his heart had already gone soft as mush.

"I will never leave you; even if one day you no longer want me, I will still follow you."

These words really make one's eyes feel sore.

Yun Li couldn't help but kiss the scar on his face, her voice soft: "I won't abandon you; from now on we'll spend a lifetime together."

Mu Qing felt a wave of sour softness in his heart, lowered his head, and kissed the female.

A good night's sleep.

The next day, Yun Li slept until the sun was high three poles before slowly getting up; waiting for Mu Qing to hear the movement and bring in the hot water, she only saw the female smile at him with curved brows and eyes.

Mu Qing also unconsciously smiled a little; even though he had just learned that A Li previously planned to take on other beast husbands, seeing her smile made all his thoughts vanish.

Ge today also sent over a hao ox and a unicorn deer; Leng Xiao and Leng Xiu in the courtyard didn't make things difficult for him, but instead chatted with him very happily.

And when Yun Li had tidied herself up and came out linking arms with Mu Qing, as expected, she received the three of them's gazes.

"A Li looks so pretty today; is it because you saw my brother and Mu Qing come back yesterday, got happy, and couldn't help but dress up?"

Leng Xiao looked at Yun Li wearing many beast-tooth ornaments today, with a flower pinned in her hair, and couldn't help but feel a pang of sourness in his heart.

How come since she came to the Silver Eagle Tribe, she hasn't dressed up like this for him to see?

Yun Li smiled and said, "Of course it's because today I have time to dress up; before, I always had to spend my thoughts caring for the young ones—where would I find time to dress up myself?"

As she said this, her gaze swept over Leng Xiu and the nearby Mu Qing with a hint of resentment.

If they had been around then, I wouldn't have needed to be so stressed discussing with Leng Xiao how to take care of the young ones.

Now she and Leng Xiao have gradually gained experience, but those two are just beast people who enjoy the fruits of others' labor.

Seeing the female complain about their late return, Mu Qing and Leng Xiu hurriedly admitted their faults one after the other.

"It's our fault. We made you suffer, A Li."

"From now on, you can dress up however you like and go out whenever you want. The three of us will take care of the little ones."

Yun Li smiled faintly. "That's good. But I'll help look after them too — after all, all four are little ones I gave birth to myself."

Leng Xiao raised his brows slightly and said, "No need. They just got back, so let them look after the little ones more, especially Leng Xiu."

He was the biological father of the female little one, after all.

If he didn't look after them, who would?

Leng Xiu did not argue, only nodded and said, "Mm, I'll handle it."

Yun Li smiled and did not continue on this topic. She pulled Mu Qing to sit by the stone table, glanced at Ge, then took the initiative to start a conversation and asked:

"What were you all just talking about? And what happened with Youbuluo again?"

She still didn't know that she had been schemed against by Mu Qing and Leng Xiu, who had arranged for her to be snatched away by the beastmen of Youbuluo.
