The wicked female is extremely fierce, but she's pampered by her seven beast husbands.

Chapter 318

Chapter 318

The two stayed in the cave for another three days before Ling Chengen's breeding season was finally over.

After Ling Chengen fully regained consciousness, he looked at the messy clothes and bedding in the cave, and there was still a lot of shock in his eyes.

She turned to look at Shi Ruoan, who was sleeping on his side beside her, pinched her own face, and couldn't help but cover her eyes with her hand. Then she looked curiously at his broad shoulders and back, his smooth and powerful back muscles in the dim light of the grass, and the smooth skin on his waist that shimmered with a faint pearly sheen.

Those dead, chaotic, out-of-control, wild and disordered memories suddenly came back to life at this moment, striking her bewildered mind.

She rubbed the back of her neck, her mind a little confused for a moment.

Although she knew that the person next to her was Shi Ruoan, she did not expect the situation to become so out of control.

Especially his body...

Ling Chengen raised his hand, then slowly lowered it, and leaned against the bedside in silence for a moment.

The system finally dared to speak up, dancing wildly in her mind, even looping "Good Days," almost driving her to run away from home with her rare moments of calm...

"Congratulations! You've finally entered the first stage of a major life event!" The system jumped up and down excitedly.

Ling Chengen sighed and said, "Shut up, you're so noisy..."

The system said cheerfully, "Although you didn't pursue Shi Ruo'an in order, she is indeed a very high-quality partner. You won't regret it."

Ling Chengen was utterly speechless: "You know all about it now."

The system chuckled a few times and whispered, "You've experienced it yourself, don't you think it's excellent?"

"Especially his waist, it's both flexible and strong..."

Ling Chengen remained silent for an even longer time this time.

System: "And they're especially cooperative with you..."

"Shut up--"

"I told you you're a XXX little yellow-haired bastard."

Ling Chengen didn't really want to pay attention to it.

It was just a breeding season; she simply slept with a male orc.

This perverted little yellow guy has started to go crazy.

It has a kind of crazy energy, like dancing at your ancestors' graves during Chinese New Year.

Ling Chengen banished the system to a corner, completely muted its voice, sat up on the bed for a while, and then reached out to touch his stomach.

I'm hungry.

Although I've eaten these past few days, I haven't eaten much because I've been in a lot of rush, and I've also used up a lot of energy...

Once you realize you're hungry, the feeling of hunger intensifies.

Unable to maintain her previous posture, she glanced at Shi Ruoan, who was still asleep, and gently stepped over him.

Shi Ruoan closed his eyes, reached out and wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her into his embrace.

Ling Chengen lost his balance, bracing himself on the side of his neck with one hand, looking down at his face, and said helplessly, "Let go of my hand, I want to get up."

Upon hearing her voice, Shi Ruoan belatedly opened her eyes, but she didn't let go of her hand. Instead, she stared at her eyes for a while before reaching out to touch her slightly sore neck.

Ling Chengen's gaze followed his fingertips to his disheveled neck, especially the Adam's apple and the vulnerable carotid artery, where there were many teeth marks and even some blood seeping out.

She looked away slightly, feeling a little guilty, but forced herself to calm down and meet his slightly bewildered gaze.

"I'm the one who bit them all?"

Ling Chengen was starting to question the meaning of life. Was she really that bloody and violent?

Shi Ruoan spoke with a heavy nasal tone and her voice was terribly hoarse. She gave a soft "Mmm": "Want to bite again?"

Ling Chengen reached out and covered his wounded mouth, saying sternly, "Don't talk nonsense."

"I wasn't born in the Year of the Dog."

"It won't bite people randomly when it's awake."

Shi Ruoan smiled, her sleepy eyes filled with laughter. She abandoned her usual cold and serious demeanor, looked at her bright and clear eyes in the darkness, and took her wrist, pulling her hand away from her lips.

"Do we still need to do it?"

Ling Chengen's ears turned bright red, but he remained calm on the surface and shook his head, saying, "No, thank you."

Shi Ruoan raised her hand and brushed her stray hairs behind her head, saying with some regret, "Is the breeding season over?"

Ling Chengen lowered his eyes and stared at him intently, raising an eyebrow slightly as he said, "You seem quite disappointed?"

Using the strength of his waist, Shi Ruoan lifted his upper body and planted a kiss on her lips.

"It's a pity."

Ling Chengen stared at him in shock, reached out and touched his forehead, and asked in astonishment, "Are you crazy? Or are you possessed by a ghost?"

Shi Ruoan sighed softly and asked, "Although this incident happened because of various accidents, it turned out this way."

"But I am not innocent in the matter of getting close to you during the breeding season."

"To be precise, it was intentional."

Ling Chengen asked, puzzled, "So? What are you trying to say by all this?"

Shi Ruoan looked at her and remained silent for a long time.

I'm not sure whether I should speak up.

He had already made it very obvious.

But Ling Chengen's attitude was still somewhat unexpected.

It seems she doesn't want to be his partner.

Ling Chengen closed his eyes briefly, and when he opened them again, the temperature on his face had completely dropped.

She took a deep breath and kissed him on the lips: "If you've thought it through, I won't refuse you when it comes to having a partner."

"But you are a sea creature, and you will always belong to the sea."

“But I can’t live in the sea, so you have to give up everything, even your identity as the high priest of the sea tribe, and come ashore to live with me.”

"To be honest, I'm not a good partner."

Are you sure you want to gamble everything you already have for this incomplete relationship with me?

Ling Chengen made no secret of anything; she wasn't a person with pure emotions.

I don't know what I'll be like in the future.

The only constant in this world is that everything changes over time.

She doesn't know what kind of person she will become in the future; she might stray from her original intentions, or she might struggle to hold onto that pitiful bottom line...

But no matter what the future holds, her attitude towards him now is sincere.

Perhaps, the feelings between them weren't love.

However, she also couldn't understand what love really was.

After considering many factors, if he still firmly chooses her.

She will do her best to repay his efforts.

……

Shi Ruoan's eyes lit up at her words.

“I had already thought about all these questions when I got closer to you.”

But what can be done?

He still couldn't control his heart and kept getting closer to her.

To him, Ling Chengen was a spark of light in the eternal night.

If he has never encountered a warm spark, he can endure eternal loneliness and darkness.

But a chance encounter with him had captivated him with this fragile warmth and light, making it impossible for him to return to his former life. Perhaps there is no such thing as eternal love in this world.

But neither his nor her life is eternal.

In the limited span of life, to chase after love that will not last forever.

This kind of question, which requires a lifetime to answer, is also very attractive to him.

He was willing to risk everything for it.

My answer has never changed.

……

The firelight inside the cave lit up. Shi Ruoan went to the beach to take a bath, and after returning to the cave, she took over the work from her and put a bag of dried meat on her lap.

"Eat something to fill your stomach first."

Ling Chengen sat on a small stool, cooking himself egg drop soup. He turned to look at the few clean salted duck eggs that Shi Ruoan had taken out and asked in confusion, "Where did you get these?"

"These were sent by Pan Xing and left at the entrance of the cave. There are still many more."

Ling Chengen threw the washed duck eggs into the soup to cook. Although the boiled duck eggs tasted very ordinary, she was so hungry that she felt like she could eat a whole cow, so she had no choice.

Shi Ruoan took out the smoked sausage from her space, thawed it with her supernatural ability, and then fried it in oil in a frying pan. It quickly became shiny and oily, and the aroma gradually wafted out.

These smoked sausages are very popular in Beast City because they can be preserved for a long time as long as they are kept at the right temperature, allowing you to save any meat that you can't eat and avoid wasting it.

Ling Chengen prefers this kind of smoked sausage made entirely of meat. It looks a lot like the ruble sausage from his previous life. In fact, the way it is made is not much different from the ruble sausage. It is mainly made of beef and pork.

As a carnivore, this food was right up her alley.

Therefore, she stored quite a lot in her small ice cellar at home. When she wanted to eat it, she just thawed it, grilled it over charcoal, and it tasted good with any food.

Shi Ruoan may have deliberately observed her eating habits and preferences, and somehow she also stockpiled a lot of food.

When it comes to food, Shi Ruo'an has typical mermaid tastes.

They don't eat dead fish, they don't eat seafood that looks particularly ugly, and they are extremely picky about the quality of fish meat.

So he doesn't actually like food from land.

However, because he had spent so much time in Beast City for the past two years, he was unable to go to the sea every day to catch the food he liked, so he gradually adapted to the dietary habits of the orcs on land.

He had learned to fry and grill food in a hot pan on his own, and now he finally had a chance to put his skills to use.

However, he didn't eat any of the food. Instead, he watched Ling Chengen finish eating before saying, "I'm going to the sea. You rest for a while, and I'll take you back to land later."

Ling Chengen watched as he saw that everything was neatly packed and cleaned, even the pots, pans, and chopsticks had been washed. He rested his chin on his hand and watched his departing figure.

After Shi Ruoan left, she looked at the wet rocks, glanced down at her still-healing wound, and suddenly felt a headache coming on.

Not only has her injury not fully healed, but she also spent her breeding season with Shi Ruoan. She expects to face a very troublesome situation when she returns.

However, I couldn't think of any good way to appease the people in my family.

He'll probably be drowned by Bai Qingyu's resentful gaze.

He would also be repeatedly subjected to sarcastic remarks from Yu Hengzhongzhen...

Ling Chengen sat in the cave for a while, then felt short of breath and got up to go outside.

The sky outside was dark, the sun had not yet risen above the sea, but a faint white hue and some pale reddish clouds could already be seen on the horizon.

She sat on the rocks, enjoying the cool sea breeze, and let out a long sigh.

All I could hear was the sound of the sea repeatedly crashing against the rocks.

"Looks like you've made it through this breeding season."

A familiar voice rang out not far away. Ling Chengen turned his head and looked towards the reef not far away. He saw Shi Panxing supporting himself on the reef with one hand and slowly standing up from the water.

Ling Chengen tilted his head and said, "How did you get up from that side? The rocks are very sharp and can cut your skin."

Shi Panxing smiled, patted the rocks twice, and said calmly, "It will cut the skin of you land-dwelling orcs, but it won't cut the merfolk."

Although merfolk appear fragile, with exposed skin resembling that of land-dwelling beastmen, they are actually covered in fine, hard scales that cannot be cut by reefs.

Ling Chengen sighed helplessly. Shi Panxing took the net bag hanging from his waist and handed it to Ling Chengen.

"A gift for getting through the breeding season."

Ling Chengen looked at the sea urchins in the fishing net and asked doubtfully, "Are they tasty?"

Shi Panxing nodded and said, "In the sea, only this kind of sea urchin can win the favor of the merfolk."

"You've known Ruo'an for so long, you should know how picky we merfolk are when it comes to food."

"Come with us to select your prey from the sea, and you're sure to have a delicious meal."

Ling Chengen said, "Thank you, but I don't have the tools to open a sea urchin."

This sea urchin doesn't look very friendly. Those long spines make her feel like they're poisonous. If she gets pricked on the finger, she'll probably be done for.

Shi Panxing sat down next to her, broke the sea urchin open with his hands, inserted it into a clean clam shell, and handed it to her.

"Did Ruo'an go hunting at sea?"

Ling Chengen, holding the clam shell, nodded and said, "It should be."

"He doesn't seem to like land-based food very much."

Shi Panxing smiled faintly and said, "He is very picky, even more so than me. The divine servants of the Sea Sacrifice Temple supported him and gave him the best life since he was a child. Before the internal strife in the far north, he had never suffered any hardship."

Ling Chengen took a bite of sea urchin, tilted his head and said, "Are you telling me all this so I can prepare his favorite food?"

Shi Panxing stared at her silently for a few seconds, then said speechlessly, "Even if you were willing, could you go into the sea and catch those prey?"

"I just wanted to tell you."

"He sacrificed a lot and gave up a lot to be with you."

"Be nicer to him."

Ling Chengen scooped up a sea urchin with a spoon, put it in his mouth, and gave a soft "oh".

Then, she turned her head and said, "Is this how you repay him?"

Shi Panxing lowered his head and continued to open the sea urchin, saying calmly, "As long as he doesn't feel that being with you is suffering, then I will help him."

"If you are angry with him, I apologize; it's not his fault."

"I forced him to get close to you during your reproductive period."

"Otherwise, given his personality, he might never have spoken up in his entire life and would never have had the chance to be with you."

Opportunity is important.

What's wrong with using despicable methods?

"I shouldn't have said these things to you."

"But aside from helping him out in this matter."

"He doesn't need me anywhere else."

Ling Chengen asked, "These are the conditions you set for me?"

Shi Panxing shook his head and said, "No."

“It was my request.”

Ling Chengen looked down at the sea urchin in his hand and said slowly, "You saved my life."

"Wouldn't it seem heartless of me to complain about your acting on your own?"

Shi Panxing looked at her and said, "You saved me too."

"So I'll accept being hit or scolded."

Ling Chengen watched as he poured the sea urchin into the clam shell in his hand, shook his head, and raised an eyebrow, saying, "If you want to apologize, this amount of sea urchin isn't enough."
