The evil female is weak and the males of the whole continent are out of control and fall.

Chapter 720 Why would someone think that?

Jin Ying looked at Xin Feng, a fleeting look of surprise and gratitude crossing his eyes. He nodded slightly and said in a low voice, "Thank you."

Then he walked toward the location Xin Feng had indicated.

Just then, the door to a bedroom on the first floor creaked open, and Jiao Yuan, reeking of alcohol and still sleepy-eyed, rubbed his temples as he walked out.

His head was still a little fuzzy. He yawned and staggered into the living room, squinting as he looked around. "Why isn't everyone here today?"

He was completely unaware of the unusual atmosphere.

But his appearance unexpectedly eased the awkwardness.

He swaggered over to his seat, picked up the wooden bowl, and ladled himself a large spoonful of broth, muttering, "This monkey's liquor is really strong; I'll have to drink less next time... Wanwan, you should have some soup too, to warm your stomach."

After Jiaoyuan interrupted them, no one brought up the previous matter again, and instead started chatting about some trivial things.

Gradually, the atmosphere became much more harmonious.

The food was plentiful: roasted meat that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, stewed bone broth that was milky white and fragrant, sweet and refreshing root vegetables, and freshly picked crisp and tender wild vegetables.

But when she chewed it, Bai Wanwan felt that she couldn't taste anything.

She glanced furtively at Jin Ying, who was sitting diagonally opposite her, quietly eating.

His profile was hard and cold, appearing somewhat aloof in the flickering firelight.

A complex emotion welled up in Bai Wanwan's heart.

This meal was destined to be the longest and most complex meal she had eaten since arriving in the Beast World.

Distracted, he kept glancing towards the door, hoping that Chief Rong and Zhu Xiu would return soon...

＊＊＊＊＊＊
Two days passed in a flash.

Jin Ying (Fu Jinshen) officially became a member of this family. He moved into the room that was arranged for him and participated in the daily life of the family.

But the fact that he became a beastman in Taiwan is like a stone thrown into a lake; the ripples it creates have not yet completely subsided.

Fu Jinshen was also unable to be happy.

He had truly possessed all of her love, without reservation.

Therefore, he understood all too well the difference between her current acceptance with responsibility and that burning passion.

Even though she publicly announced that he was her beastly husband, in the past few days, she has unconsciously and unintentionally avoided one-on-one contact or overly intimate interactions with him.

When her gaze swept over him, it would sometimes quickly look away; when distributing food or arranging affairs, she would take good care of him, but she lacked the natural intimacy and casualness she had with her husband.

She seemed to be keeping her promise, yet subconsciously drew an invisible line.

He silently observed and clearly perceived all of this.

She doesn't love him!

The cold, dull pain brought by those four words quietly spread.

But he said nothing, simply doing his duty in silence, without adding to her predicament.

Wanwan needs time, and he can give her that.

Bai Wanwan had no idea what Jinying was thinking; she had already fulfilled her responsibility.

As for getting to know each other, that's for later.

The most crucial thing right now is to appease my beast husbands.

Feeling a bit down, she wanted to talk to Yin Mei.

Just as he stepped out of the main house, he bumped into Jin Yi, who was carrying a huge wild boar into the house. The golden morning light shone on him, making his smile particularly dazzling.

"Wanwan, you're awake? Where are you going? Wait for me to put my things down and I'll come with you." Seeing her walk out, Jin Yi immediately quickened his pace, put the prey into the storage room, and walked back to her side while wiping his hands.

Having learned her lesson from last time, Bai Wanwan has also curbed her previous willful tendency to occasionally wander off alone.

She knew that the males in the house were on high alert, and there were at least three male beasts around the house, either openly or secretly, to keep watch and ensure that she would never be alone again.

So she obediently stopped and waited for Jin Yi to come over.

"I plan to visit Sister Yin Mei's house," she honestly confessed.

Jin Yi walked up to her, naturally took her hand, his warm, dry palm enveloping her fingertips, and smiled gently: "Let's go, I'll go with you."

The two walked side by side on the village path.

The snow had long since melted away, revealing moist soil and tenacious new green shoots, and the air was crisp and clear.

Bai Wanwan enjoyed this rare, peaceful morning stroll, but she kept thinking about those two people.

She couldn't help but speak, her voice soft and tentative: "Jin Yi... Zhu Xiu and Qiu Rong, what have they been busy with these past two days? Why... haven't they come home?"

Jin Yi tightened his grip on her hand slightly, his smile unchanged, but his tone was deliberate: "The snow season has just ended, and the food we stocked at home has been used up. Zhu Xiu must have gone hunting."

He paused, then continued, "As for the chieftain, as you know, with the arrival of the warm season, there have been relocations and handovers among the various tribes, the division of new hunting areas, and internal tribal affairs... As the chieftain, he has to make all the decisions. I heard that the fire in the council hall hasn't gone out for the past few nights."

He deliberately gave them the most convincing reason.

After he finished speaking, he deliberately looked at Wanwan's expression.

Seeing that she wasn't angry that Zhu Xiu and Qiu Rong hadn't returned home, they breathed a sigh of relief for them.

Soon, they arrived at the courtyard of Yin Mei's house.

One of Yin Mei's animal handlers was tanning a huge animal hide in the yard. When he saw them, he smiled and nodded in greeting.

The sound of Yin Mei humming a tuneless little tune came from inside the room; she seemed to be in a good mood.

"Sister Yin Mei..." Bai Wanwan called out from the courtyard gate.

"Hey! Wanwan?" Yin Mei's voice immediately became cheerful, and then the curtain was lifted, and she walked out with a big smile.

"What brings you here today? Please come in and have a seat!"

Jin Yi released Bai Wanwan's hand. "Wanwan, I'll take a walk around here. You two chat. Call me when you're done, and I'll come over."

"Okay." Bai Wanwan smiled at him.

Jin Yi turned and left, but did not go too far, keeping the two female figures in sight.

Yin Mei had already affectionately taken her arm, leading her into the house while carefully examining her expression: "What's wrong? Why is your face so tense? Are you unhappy? Who upset our Wanwan?"

In front of her familiar sisters, she no longer needed to pretend that nothing was wrong.

After sitting down at the door, she sighed and recounted in detail, with frustration and helplessness, the accidental encounter with Jin Ying after drinking that day, the forced acceptance of him as her new beast husband, the strange atmosphere at home afterwards, and the avoidance of Chief Rong and Zhu Xiu by the Chief Rong and Zhu Xiu.

She thought Yin Mei would be surprised, or that she would blame herself on Yin Ze's behalf.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Yin Mei was not surprised at all. Instead, she burst out laughing, her eyes full of knowing "I knew it".

"I thought Ember Shadow would become a new member of your family during the snow season! I didn't expect it to be delayed until now."

Yin Mei poured herself and Bai Wanwan each a bowl of warm water, her tone relaxed.

Bai Wanwan was stunned: "Sister Yin Mei, how... how could you think that?"
