Chapter 522: Chapter 523: Absolutely No Cover-Up
After hearing Su Tang’s words, everyone visibly relaxed.
Qing Guo came forward with a little clay pot and said quietly, "Tangtang, this is Gugu Beast soup I cooked. Give some to Yuanyuan when she wakes up."
With Qing Guo taking the lead, other young females come over one by one to offer things. Su Tang did not refuse any, accepting them graciously. Anything she couldn’t carry she asked Gaiyin to help with.
Another good half-day of hustle and bustle, and finally everything was received. "Alright, everyone worked hard. It’s cold out, don’t stay out here. Everyone, go back quickly!"
Despite Su Tang’s repeated appeals, everyone slowly left one by one, leaving the courtyard empty again. Su Tang finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Just about to go inside, she heard someone call her.
"Su Tang..."
It was Hanna, Hai Qin’s partner.
Hanna stepped forward, her voice also lowered. "Su Tang, I heard that one of our Beastmen injured a young female carrying offspring. I’m really sorry. It’s our fault for not enforcing discipline properly. How is she now? Is the young female okay?"
Su Tang was slightly angered. Though she knew this was not Hanna’s doing, she couldn’t keep her emotions in check.
It had been a while since the incident with Yuanyuan, and only Hanna from the Mermaid Clan had shown up. It didn’t matter who was right or wrong at this point, the mere attitude of the Mermaid Clan already displeased her.
Su Tang spoke with a neutral tone, "The situation is not good. The cub within the female is unstable. We have already prescribed her a medicinal soup, however, if her condition does not improve by tonight then..."
Hanna clearly sensed Su Tang’s displeasure in her tone. She quickly explained, "I was kept outside just now and couldn’t get in until everyone dispersed. Hai Qin has also gone to investigate the matter. Don’t worry, we won’t protect the Mermaid Beastman who hurt the female!"
"Hmm." Su Tang’s voice remained noncommittal, showing no joy or sorrow.
Hanna clenched her fingers tightly together. She knew very well that whatever she said now would be useless.
Thinking from another perspective, if someone had harmed their own Mermaid females and cubs, they would never let that person go, and may even vent their anger on the entire tribe!
Hanna sighed, "Su Tang, may I go see the young female?"
"Forget it. She just managed to fall asleep. Don’t disturb her. Let her rest well."
Hanna was left speechless, not knowing what to say. The atmosphere turned awkward.
Su Tang spoke again, "If there is nothing else, I will go in. I will think of other ways to see if I can save the cub."
With Su Tang’s firm stance, Hanna could not insist. She could only apologize again, "I’m really sorry. It’s all our fault. If there’s anything you need help with, just ask. We won’t refuse!"
Su Tang nodded lightly, just as she was about to turn around when she was stopped by someone calling out to her once more.
"Wait!"
The voice belonged to Hai Qin.
Su Tang drew a deep breath, turned around, and said indifferently, "Sea Tribal Chief, let’s talk about anything else another time. I’ve already told your partner what you wanted to know. Now I want to go back to find ways to save our young female."
Hai Qin had come with Wen Jue. In Su Tang’s eyes, Hai Qin had only brought Wen Jue along to save face!
What does he take this for?
Is he intending to push this affair under the rug by using his position and power after injuring someone?
Huh-
Su Tang chuckled derisively.
Unexpectedly, she didn’t experience such a thing on Blue Star, but deeply felt it within the Beast World.
