âThank you for your concern. Iâm fine,â Yuan Hou said, touched. Boohoo⦠He had finally been accepted by them, he thought happily. But if the others knew what he was thinking, they would tell him that he was overthinking it.
âLetâs go hunting with us!â Feng Da received the freakâs gaze and hugged Yuan Houâs shoulder, forcefully dragging the reluctant Yuan Hou awayâ¦
âHunting! I didnât say I was going hunting with you!â Yuan Houâs voice entered Leng Ruoxueâs ears.
Leng Ruoxue chuckled and looked at the freak coquettishly. Her beautiful eyes clearly said, âYouâre so bad!â
âLittle peacock, take this bald eagle somewhere else for a while. I have something to say to your master.â The freak looked at the black eagle, who was sizing them up with wide eyes, and instructed softly.
âYes,â the little peacock replied. Then, he pulled the black eagleâs wings and leftâ¦
âXueâer, itâs great that all the light bulbs have left.â The freak pulled Leng Ruoxue into his arms and said proudly.
âYouâre reallyâ¦!â Leng Ruoxue smiled helplessly.
âI want to be alone with Xueâer!â The freak chuckled.
âYes, I know.â Leng Ruoxue nodded and hugged the freakâs waist.
Just like that, the two of them kept their arms around each other. There were no additional words, but they felt warm and welcoming. The intimate atmosphere between them was one that no one could ever get into.
It wasnât until they heard footsteps that they reluctantly released each other.
âWeâre back, miss,â Feng Da deliberately announced loudly.
âYes.â Leng Ruoxue nodded as she looked at Feng Da and the others who appeared in front of them.
âLooks like your gains are not bad!â Leng Ruoxue couldnât help but sigh when she saw the rabbit in their hands.
âThatâs right! Hehe! There are many low-level spirit beasts in this mountain. Thereâs a nest of them.â Feng Da looked at the fat rabbit in his hand and said happily.
âUh! What happened to Young Master Yuan?â Leng Ruoxue suddenly glanced at Yuan Hou who was hiding in the middle of the crowd in a sorry state. His clothes were actually torn, and his face was bruised. This couldnât help but surprise her. Well! Feng Da and the others shouldnât have beaten him up again, right?
âHe was beaten up by a rabbit.â Feng Da suppressed his laughter. To be honest, he had never seen such a stupid person in his life. Not only could he not even catch a rabbit, but he was also played by those stupid rabbits.
âThose rabbits were too cunning. I⦠I didnât catch any of them,â Yuan Hou said in embarrassment. Boohoo⦠He didnât want to hunt at first, but then he heard from Miss Ningâs subordinates that their Miss liked rabbit meat the most, so he wanted to show off in front of Miss Ning. Who knew that he would end up embarrassing himself?
âItâs okay, just catch him a few more times.â Leng Ruoxue smiled and comforted him, but she couldnât help but feel anxious in her heart. It was normal not to catch such a rich second-generation heir! If he caught the rabbit, how stupid would the rabbit be!
âYoung Master Ape, originally! If you didnât catch any rabbits, you shouldnât have any food to eat at night. However, our Miss is kind-hearted and naturally wonât watch you starve. So, go find a small river and clean up all these rabbits! If thereâs anything unclean, donât even think about eating at night.â Feng Da instructed with a naughty smile.
âI⦠I donât know how to catch rabbits,â Yuan Hou said fearfully. Boohoo⦠After flying for nearly a day, he was already hungry. If he was not allowed to eat at night, he would starve to death.
âLin Yuan, give him a sample.â Feng Da turned to look at Lin Yuan.
âAlright.â Lin Yuan took out a dagger as thin as a cicadaâs wing from his ring. Then, he picked up a dead rabbit and skillfully skinned it and removed its internal organs. In less than a minute, a huge rabbit weighing more than ten kilograms was cleaned up by him.
âHere, follow this standard.â Lin Yuan stuffed the packed rabbit into Yuan Houâs hand and reminded it.
âUh!â The ape was a little dumbfounded. Could⦠could he still be considered a human? Wasnât his speed a little too fast? Even though his subordinates would occasionally roast something for him to eat, their speed couldnât compare to this personâs!
âUh what! Hurry up and clean up! Remember to wash it clean!â Lin Yuan said impatiently.
âI donât know where thereâs a river,â Yuan Hou whispered.
âDidnât we encounter a river on the way back? Itâs not very far from here. You can just wash there,â Lin Yuan said speechlessly.
âOh! But how can I take so many rabbits!â Yuan Hou asked again.
âF*ck, youâre asking too many questions! Why do you have so many questions? These rabbits didnât let you hold them with your hands. Is your storage ring a toy!â Lin Yuanâs patience was exhausted and he couldnât help but roar.
âWhy are you so fierce!â Yuan Hou muttered softly, his face filled with grievance.
âGo!â Lin Yuan roared, glaring.
âAh! Iâll go now!â Yuan Hou hurriedly put the rabbits in the hands of the others into the ring and then went to clean up.
But he was back before long.
âDonât tell me youâre done packing so quickly?â Lin Yuan said in disbelief. Damn, wasnât this strange?
âUm⦠can you lend me your dagger?â Yuan Hou whispered, ducking his head in fear.
âHere, donât lose it.â Lin Yuan kept telling himself to calm down. Then, after taking a few deep breaths, he handed the dagger that had been retracted from his ring to Yuan Hou.
âYes.â Yuan Hou nodded, then turned and left again.
âFeng Da, Can he get the rabbits?â Leng Ruoxue asked with a headache as she watched Yuan Hou leave as if it was going to the execution ground.
âMiss, we donât know anything either. Humans have to go through more adversity. Therefore, weâre giving him a chance now. He has to thank us!â Feng Da said disapprovingly.
âLooks like I wonât be able to eat rabbit tonight.â Leng Ruoxue didnât have any hope in the speed at which Yuan Houcleaned up the rabbit meat.
