Chapter 328: Chapter 329: Who Bullied You?
Several of the females in the Winged Tiger Tribe knew how to stir-fry dishes, so while Su Tang was dealing with the rice pods, they had finished frying the meat.
The method of cooking rice and porridge was straightforward, so Su Tang just briefly explained it and the smarter females understood how to do it.
Around the bonfire campsite, groups of people were huddled together, holding ceramic bowls in their hands. Some were holding chopsticks, others spoons. Some were eating rice, others drinking porridge. It was a scene filled with vitality and prosperity.
Su Tang had just been pulled away by Flower Mother to learn how to stir-fry dishes and cook.
So right now, Gaiyin was sitting on a log, holding a bowl of rice in his hand, but he didn’t move a bit.
Seeing this, Gaiya took a sip from his bowl of white porridge, let out a comfortable sigh, and asked, "It tastes really good. Why aren’t you eating, brother?"
Gaiyin glanced at him and said indifferently, "I’m not hungry."
Gaiya moved closer to him, speaking mischievously, "Is it because only sister-in-law isn’t with you that you can’t eat?"
Gaiyin ignored him.
Gaiya sighed like an old man and said, "Just like mother said, you can’t be a part of a family if you don’t act like it. Right now, you look just like jealous father!"
Gaiyin glanced at Gaiya, "Jealous?"
Gaiya nodded, "Yes, sour fruit. Mother likes to call the juice in the sour fruit vinegar. Each time mother eats with others and doesn’t accompany father, his face looks like he’s eaten a sour fruit, very unpleasant, just like you a moment ago."
Gaiyin seemed startled for a moment, touched his face, and couldn’t help but ask softly, "Did I look unpleasant just now?"
Gaiya quickly shook his head, smiling brilliantly, "Not at all. You’re the most handsome, just as handsome as father!"
Only then did Gaiyin feel at ease.
Before, he always felt that being handsome was useless for a beastman. Being handsome couldn’t fill your stomach. What was important was being able to hunt and protect your females, you had to be strong.
But now, his perspective changed. He not only wanted to be strong but also handsome. Standing next to his female, he would have more confidence.
When he came back to his senses, he noticed that the usually noisy Gaiya was unusually quiet today.
As he looked down, he saw Gaiya sitting still, peacefully holding a small bowl and sipping from it. His eyes glowed faintly red.
Gaiyin frowned subconsciously, who had bullied him? And where was that silly beast that always followed him around?
Looking up, he noticed the mount panting, tail wagging, continuously circling around a Beastman who was roasting meat. It was ready to plop down and act cute. 𝖓𝔬𝖛𝔭𝔲𝖇.𝔠𝔬𝖒
Gaiyin: "..."
Their surroundings were filled with noise, but they were the only two sitting here, insulated from the surrounding clamor, a peaceful haven of their own.
Gaiyin put a piece of fried meat in Gaiya’s bowl without saying a thing, in this peaceful setting.
As if nothing had happened, he looked around after serving the slice of meat.
After looking all around and then back at Gaiya, he discovered that Gaiya was holding his bowl, his dewy eyes fixed on him.
Gaiyin: "..."
What was the deal with cubs? Why were they so prone to crying? Would people misunderstand that he was the one making the little one cry?
Feeling an indescribably peculiar sensation he asked, still maintaining his calm, "What’s wrong? Did someone bully you? Do you need me to get back at them for you?"
Gaiya sniffled, shook his head fervently, but his eyes turned even redder.
