After their eyes met for more than ten seconds, Shu Yue blinked. Shu Xin, as if scalded, reacted and immediately rolled off the stone bed, gritting her teeth in anger, "Leite!"
Hearing the female's voice, Leite responded from the yard, "Xin'er, you're awake? We're in the yard."
Shu Xin's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. She got up from the ground and went to find the beast to settle the score. She touched her sleeve and realized he had actually taken her silver needles!
Bastard!
She walked out of the cave and was stunned by the sight before her: stone tables and chairs with a primitive feel, a bowl of appetizing egg drop soup on the table, and Went as he continued to fry eggs nearby.
Leite was squatting beside him, but as soon as he saw her come out, he immediately came over to hug her.
Shu Xin glared at him fiercely, "How did I get here!"
Shu Yue, who was behind her, emerged groggily, "I think I remember, it wasn't even dawn yet, and Leite brought you over while carrying you." She yawned as she spoke.
To be honest... it was quite awkward. To witness her sister's intensity from that incident... sigh, she understood this feeling!
Shu Xin's face turned from green to white, and she said through gritted teeth, "Where are my needles!"
Leite said ingratiatingly, "I put them in your medicine box. They're being kept safe~"
He knew those long needles were good things and very important to females, but it wasn't a pleasant feeling to be poked by needles while playing music...
Xin'er's gaze made him a little guilty. "Ahem, Xin'er, are you hungry?"
Shu Xin angrily squeezed out a word from between her teeth, "Scram!"
Although the cannon fire wasn't directed at her, Shu Yue could feel the strong smell of gunpowder.
"Uh, Sister, let's eat first. After we're full, I'll have Went hold down Brother Leite, and you can poke him however you want, okay?"
Leite: "..." ??? What harsh words were these sister-in-law saying?
Went, who was frying eggs, would definitely obey his wife's arrangements unconditionally, "No problem!"
Shu Xin: "..."
"Are you sure you can hold him down?" She had witnessed the strength of beastmen to some extent; ordinary beastmen couldn't defeat them at all!
Went would not allow anyone to question his strength, "You are Yue Yue's sister, so you are my sister. Don't worry, I can hold him down."
As he spoke, he freed one hand to show off his firm and powerful arm muscles.
Shu Xin: "..." Ten beastmen... ten arms with muscles.
Shu Yue linked her arm with hers and walked towards the stone stool, "Sister, don't worry, Went is the most powerful among the dragon beasts!" Of course, she was speaking without basis.
"..." Shu Xin's body stiffened slightly from the other's intimate contact, and she was led away somewhat unnaturally.
Went looked proud; his Yue Yue understood him so well~
Leite, on the other hand, looked sullen, his gaze dangerously fixed on Went, "You say you can hold me down, and you're the strongest among dragon beasts?" Has this kid lost all sense of proportion since returning?
...
Dragon beasts with females and cubs had long lost the concept of respecting superiors. He said with a chuckle, "If you don't believe me, when my Yue Yue finishes eating, shall we go out and spar?"
Leite snorted, "Spar if you want, but call Ah Shui and the others."
"No problem!"
The appointment was set, and all the eggs were fried.
Including what Leite brought, a total of thirty eggs were fried, all for the two females.
Leite had taken a bite earlier, and Went had almost fought him over it. Stealing food from a pregnant woman was unforgivable!
The golden-brown fried eggs were served. Shu Yue's appetite was whetted, and she didn't forget to greet Shu Xin first, "Sister, try some."
She said somewhat awkwardly, "Although I didn't make breakfast today, Went's cooking is no different from mine. His culinary skills have truly inherited my legacy..."
Shu Xin's gaze flickered between Went and her, naturally seeing the affection between them.
"Okay, I'll try." She decided to put aside the awkwardness for now and fill her stomach first.
Shu Xin picked up a piece of fried egg with her chopsticks, took a bite, and frowned after eating it, "It's fragrant, but it's too oily."
"Oily?" Shu Yue took a big bite after hearing this.
"I don't think it's oily. It's quite delicious. Is it because your taste is too bland and you can't get used to it?" She thought of this reason.
Shu Xin nodded slightly, "Perhaps. I also can't get used to the roasted meat here." It was too greasy for her, and there were no refreshing vegetables here. If she didn't understand medicine herself, her digestive system would have had problems during this time.
Shu Yue frowned with distress upon hearing this, "Then we'll eat more vegetables in the future. Human bodies are indeed not suitable for eating high-calorie foods frequently."
She was no longer in a human body, and eating vegetarian food frequently would instead be bad for her health. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
"Sister, I found walnuts and corn here. After we finish eating, we'll go pick corn. Tomorrow, we'll have them dig a cellar, tidy up the house inside and out, and then we'll pick all the corn and grind it into cornmeal to save for winter."
Upon hearing corn, Shu Xin's mouth began to water. Looking at the fried eggs in front of her, she started to feel resistant.
"How much corn is there? How did you find it?"
Shu Yue replied, "Went said there's a large cornfield near the Warrior Tribe. The Horned Sheep tribe leader told me about the corn. They are herbivores, and they also told me about several other delicious wild vegetables. We can go digging for wild vegetables today and pick corn to roast and eat."
Thinking of the sweet and soft roasted corn, even Shu Xin's usually calm demeanor couldn't sit still...
Putting aside other things, she decided to follow her heart and said, "Okay, we'll go pick it after we eat."
Leite, who was eavesdropping nearby, asked in surprise, "Xin'er, aren't you tired anymore?"
"..." Very good, the beast had successfully angered her again!
"You'll sleep outside the cave for the next few days."
"Ah? Why? I don't want to!" Leite acted like a disobedient child.
Shu Xin wasn't in a hurry. She slowly took a sip of the egg drop soup and said calmly, "If you don't listen, I'll poke myself." The soup was indeed delicious, with sweet wild vegetables added. She took another sip.
Very good, this successfully threatened Leite. Leite himself was thick-skinned and not afraid of being poked, but he couldn't bear to see his female self-harm!
"Don't poke yourself, I'll listen to you, okay?" His expression was extremely wronged.
Shu Yue watched with great interest. She didn't know their current emotional state, and before she understood Shu Xin's attitude, she wouldn't interfere with their relationship.
Every couple had their own way of getting along, and one couldn't measure another's happiness by their own standards, so she chose to observe from the sidelines.
She could see Leite's fervent devotion to her sister, while her sister's reaction was indifferent, making it impossible to discern her true thoughts.
However, she was used to it. Shu Xin had always been this indifferent since childhood, which was also why their parents favored her more. Compared to a child who acted mature, parents preferred the one who could act spoiled and cute.
When they were children, Shu Xin hated her vying for attention the most. But Shu Xin didn't know that she just wanted to see her sister get angry. At least an angry sister made her feel more real.
