Chapter 434: Chapter 435 - One Family
Wen Jue was rather helpless, "Qiaoqiao, Hai Qin is a friend who once saved my life, so please be a bit more cautious with him."
Ye Qiao waved her hand impatiently, "Yes, yes, I get it. Honestly, you talk too much. Do you really think I’m that clueless?"
A strong desire to survive forced Wen Jue to shut up.
Ye Qiao, arm in arm with Su Tang, turned to the tribe and gestured, "Hey, everyone, just a second. Have a look at the person right next to me. She’s called Su Tang, the mate of my cub and the sacred woman of this tribe. We’ll be living here from now on, and she’s got our backs!"
The white tiger beastmen and the females, beaming, stared at her with an intense motherly gaze and the clapping from them was thunderous.
Su Tang felt awkward and almost wished she could dive headfirst into the snow.
Seeing this, Ye Qiao lifted her hand and laughed loudly, "Hahaha, my Tangtang is shy, everyone. Turn down the enthusiasm a little, or you’ll frighten her."
As she finished speaking, the applause stopped abruptly.
Su Tang was dripping in sweat.
"Um, how many people are in your tribe? I can tell them to prepare food for everyone."
Ye Qiao, all solemn, corrected her, "It’s ’us’, because we’re all one family now. You can’t discriminate us."
Feeling helpless, Su Tang laughed dryly, "Yes, yes. My mistake. How much more rice should I have prepared then?"
"Aside from me and old Wen, 106 more, including the two cubs, Yaya and Sanmao,"
Su Tang made a rare joke, "Oh, I see. We are supposed to have 108 brave men from Tiger Valley! Sorry for being disrespectful."
"Hahahaha!"
The people from the White Tiger Clan and Wen Jue were all baffled. They had no idea why Ye Qiao was laughing. They just did not get the joke.
...
A hundred people wasn’t too many for the camp’s cafeteria to accommodate.
The Taoyuan Clan had almost finished their meals, left with some rice. The plan was to save it for porridge at night. Unexpectedly, the white tiger beastmen showed up.
The remaining food wasn’t enough for the White Tiger Clan, hence two large pots of steamed rice were quickly prepared. The remaining dishes were served, and the kitchen began to work intensely again.
The White Tiger Clan was eating rice for the first time. They were instantly conquered by the sweet, soft flavor, and they began to devour it. Nobody could even find time to talk. They looked like refugees who hadn’t eaten for a long time.
In the meantime, Su Tang took Wen Jue and Ye Qiao to a private room on the second floor.
There were already stools and fresh utensils placed in the room, right between Gaiyin and Hai Qin.
Hai Qin looked dazed the moment he saw Wen Jue. The figure was exactly the same as he remembered.
The Qi around Wen Jue was also disordered. He nodded at Hai Qin and was the first to speak, "Long time no see!"
Hai Qin returned to his senses and replied with a light laugh, "Yes, it’s been a long time."
Su Tang looked at the two bewilderedly. Hai Qin seemed a lot more stable than before. At least when he smiled, people didn’t find him deranged.
"Don’t just stand there. Please have a seat!"
Gaiyin pulled out the chairs for them and indicated for them to sit down.
Ye Qiao held onto Su Tang tightly, pointed to Gaiyin and said, "You can sit next to old Wen. I want to sit with Tangtang."
The father and son exchanged a glance and shook their heads helplessly. Their expressions and movements were perfectly in sync. At a glance, they looked like a pair of telepathic twins!
