Mu Yeâs heart ached for his female. He wanted to bring her home to take care of her, but Patriarch Shuang Yun had warned him in advance not to bring any outsiders into the rock mountain. Helpless, he could only leave Yi Wu in the stone house and return home alone. He planned to plead with Patriarch Shuang Yun to let Yi Wu enter the rock mountain.
Unexpectedly, Patriarch Shuang Yun was not at home. Mu Ye did not find him but ran into his sister, Mu Xiang, instead.
When she found out that he was with Yi Wu, Mu Xiang was furious. She scolded him furiously!
However, Mu Ye refused to change his mind.
He said, âIâve already mated with Yi Wu. Sheâs my mate now. I can never leave her!â
âYou ingrate! Youâre killing me!â Mu Xiang was trembling with anger.
Seeing how upset his sister was, Mu Ye couldnât bear it, but when he thought about how Yi Wu was still waiting for him in the stone house, he immediately hardened his resolve and said firmly, âIf Patriarch Shuang Yun doesnât agree to let me bring her up the mountain, Iâll go with her!â
Jiu Yuan asked in a low voice, âAre you planning to leave the Rock Wolf Tribe for an outsider?â
Mu Ye avoided his sisterâs gaze and clenched his fists. âYes!â
Shuang Yunâs voice suddenly sounded.
âThen take Yi Wu and leave!â
Everyone was in an uproar. They immediately looked in the direction of the voice and saw that Shuang Yun had already arrived outside the crowd. He was looking at Mu Ye with a deep gaze. There was no emotion in his dark green eyes. They were frighteningly cold.
The wolf beasts retreated and took the initiative to make way.
......
Shuang Yun walked over. When he passed Huanhuan and the wolf cubs, he paused and whispered, âGo back first.â
âOkay.â Huanhuan didnât want to interfere in his management of the wolf tribe, so she obediently brought the wolf cubs home.
Huanhuan did not know what happened after that.
It wasnât until Shuang Yun returned that she learned the truth from him.
âMu Ye is gone.â
Huanhuan was not surprised by the outcome. She sighed. âMu Xiang must be upset.â
Although Mu Xiang always said that her brother was useless, she actually cared about him very much. She loved her brother from the bottom of her heart.
But now, he had abandoned her, his biological sister, for a female he had only known for one night.
She probably felt something worse than disappointment!
Huanhuan suddenly asked, âCould Mu Ye have fallen for Yi Wu due to Fox Fragrance and abandoned his sister?!â
But Shuang Yun said, âWhat difference does it make whether he was poisoned or not? In any case, Mu Ye has already mated with Yi Wu. The mate contract binds him to her. Unless he dies, heâll never leave her again.â
Huanhuan fell silent.
The mate bond was a cruel thing. It bound the male beast for life. He could not be free unless he died.
If the male beast was unlucky enough to meet a heartless female mate, his life would be over.
Seeing her sigh and frown, Shuang Yun couldnât help but ask, âWhat are you thinking about? Youâre so engrossed in this matter.â
âIâm thinking about our children. What if they encounter a female who treats them badly when they grow up? What if theyâre bullied by their female mates?â
Shuang Yun replied very readily, âThey need to find a mate you approve of. If the mate doesnât meet your standards, they shouldnât become mates with her!â
Huanhuan was caught between laughter and tears. âHow is that possible?!â
In the afternoon, Mu Xiang came to look for Shuang Yun. Huanhuan was at home too. She saw that Mu Xiangâs eyes were swollen from crying, and her voice was hoarse. She looked much more haggard.
She did not expect the once cheerful and open-minded Mu Xiang to become like this!
It seemed that Mu Yeâs departure had hit her hard.
Jiu Yuan carefully held Mu Xiang.
Mu Xiang looked at Shuang Yun and pleaded, âMu Ye must have been enchanted by that female fox. Iâll look for him again later. If I can persuade him to leave that female fox, can you let him return to the Rock Wolf Tribe, Patriarch?â
A male beast that already had a mate could not be separated from his mate unless he was abandoned by his mate.
But even if they were abandoned, the price was huge.
Mu Ye might not be able to withstand it.
Shuang Yun didnât say these words. He just nodded. âSure.â
Mu Xiang quickly bowed. âThank you! Thank you for your magnanimity, Patriarch!â
Huanhuan helped her up. âYou donât look well. Go back and rest. Although Mu Ye is gone, you still have Jiu Yuan and the children. You have to be strong, even for them.â
Her words cheered Mu Xiang up a little.
Not long after Mu Xiang and her husband left, Xue Ling arrived.
As soon as he walked in, the skullcap eagerly crawled out of his sleeve and played with the wolf cubs.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
When Huanhuan saw Xue Ling, she couldnât help but ask, âDonât tell me youâre here to ask me for sunflower seeds again?â
Xue Ling chuckled. âDo you think I only want sunflower seeds? You underestimate me!â
The corners of Huanhuanâs mouth twitched. âCut the crap. Why are you here?â
âIâm here to ask if youâve come up with a prescription for the problem of reproduction among the birds.â
Huanhuan: ââ¦â
Oh no! After giving birth, she only cared about eating, drinking, and having fun. She had completely forgotten about the prescription!
She coughed lightly. âWell⦠wait a little longer. Iâve already made some progress. I need to study it further. When Iâm done, Iâll send the medicine to you.â
Xue Ling immediately saw through her thoughts and raised his eyebrows with a smile. âDonât tell me you already forgot about this matter?â
Huanhuan quickly denied, âNo, no! Absolutely not!â
Xue Ling grabbed her chin. âYouâd better not be lying to me.â
Huanhuan tried to smile sincerely. âI never lie!â
As soon as Shuang Yun walked in, he saw Xue Ling and Huanhuan standing very close to each other. He immediately exploded.
He rushed over and pushed Xue Ling away. âDonât you dare touch Huanhuan!â he said angrily.
Xue Ling deliberately licked the finger that had touched Huanhuanâs chin just now. His blood-colored eyes stared straight at Huanhuan as if he wanted to swallow the little female in front of him.
Such an explicit gaze couldnât help but scare Huanhuan, and it made Shuang Yun even angrier.
He grabbed Xue Lingâs collar and roared aggressively, âDonât think I wonât dare to beat you up!â
Xue Ling still looked lazy and did not take Shuang Yunâs threat to heart.
âIf you want to fight, letâs fight, then. My hands have been itching recently. Itâs not a bad idea to practice on you.â
âYou!â
Huanhuan quickly grabbed Shuang Yun, who was about to hit Xue Ling. âCalm down. Xue Ling doesnât like me at all. He likes someone else. I have nothing to do with him. Let go of him.â
