Chapter 988: Extra - Wen Ye Couple 4
Ye Qiao suddenly opened her eyes and sat up abruptly.
She gasped for air, her heart pounding furiously in her chest, beads of sweat moistening the broken hairs at her temples.
In her panic, Ye Qiao surveyed the surroundings, and her heart sank further.
She wasn’t dreaming.
She had died, and come back to life.
Lived in a place utterly contrary to the world she had known before.
She had become a Mother Tiger, and moreover, a pregnant Mother Tiger!
Ye Qiao looked down and gently stroked her not-yet-showing belly, her eyes filled with deep melancholy.
She was so unwilling!
Just thinking about that pair of dogs, man and woman on Blue Star scattering her wealth after her death made her so angry that her heart, liver, spleen, stomach, and lungs all hurt.
She really had been blind before, how had she ever fallen for Shi Yan, that forgetful piece of trash?
And Wu Yue, that scheming bitch, just resigned from Notre-Dame de Paris, right? How could she pretend better than a plastic bag?
Oh, the most foolish of all was herself, what had she been thinking?
Recalling the unbearable past, Ye Qiao was on the verge of shutting down.
"Qiao, are you awake? Do you want to eat something?"
A timid female voice sounded from outside the Cave.
"I’ve left it at the Cave entrance, come and get it if you want to eat, okay?"
Before Ye Qiao could react, the female outside had hurriedly run off.
Ye Qiao frowned and got up to go out and have a look.
The moment she moved, she found a large gold chain shackled around her ankle.
Clanking along with her movements.
Ye Qiao: ...
Oh, right, she had almost forgotten.
The original owner of this body was viewed as a complete ’freak’ in the eyes of others in the Tribe!
This Continent was known as the Beastman Continent, and her Tribe, favored by the great Beastmen, was one of the Five Great Tribes on the Continent—the White Tiger Tribe.
In the Tribe, no matter the gender, everyone was able to sense the Heavenly and Earthly Primordial Power after the rite of passage, thereby awakening the Superpower Bloodline of the White Tiger Clan, and realizing a Gold Elemental Superpower.
A rule unchanging since ancient times, except it just didn’t work for the original inhabitant of this body.
The original inhabitant was the cub of the previous chief of the White Tiger Tribe, with a mental disability from birth, acting oppositely to the rest of the Tribe, often doing things beyond understanding, which is why most of the Tribe didn’t like her, but they held their peace out of respect for her father.
After an accident took her father’s life, he entrusted her to the current chieftain of the White Tiger Clan, who was also her mate, the father of the cub in her belly.
From the original inhabitant’s ’memories’, this mate had always cared for her as a cub, thoroughly dedicated.
The pregnancy was an accident.
Before being chained by the gold, the original body liked to wander everywhere—since the area around the Tribe had been cleared and was safe, no one confined her.
During one of her wanderings, she came across a beautiful fruit and, without a second thought, picked it up and bit into it.
Little did she know that this fruit was the Love Fruit that the priest had just harvested for a ritual, and she had carelessly eaten it.
Out of options, the priest took the original to her mate, asking for his help to neutralize the poison of the Love Fruit, or else she would die violently.
Well... afterward, the original had been dealt with by her mate, whose face was black with rage.
However, from the memories, Ye Qiao caught sight of the triumphant smile on the priest’s face as he left.
Thinking back on it now, no matter how she looked at it, the Tribe’s priest had done it on purpose!
