The old patriarch is just old, not blind, and he can still see some small movements clearly: "I now seriously suspect that you and this little female are in the same group, so the two of you cannot leave."
"Witch doctor, take the little female back."
Feng Lin wanted to stop him but didn't dare to. He watched unwillingly as Chu Xingnuo was taken away in front of him.
After the orc was taken away and Feng Lin left, Chu Xingnuo and Feng Yue went downstairs together.
Feng Yue asked about Feng Wu.
The old patriarch did not hide it from her anymore and simply explained the whole thing to her.
Feng Yue was so angry that she stamped her feet after hearing this: "How could Brother Jiu become so evil? He deserves it."
"I, Patriarch, have never protected the black jade. Why do you say that the black jade was lost from me?"
This question left Fengyue puzzled.
The old patriarch did not answer Feng Yue's question, but asked Chu Xingnuo: "What do you think of what happened just now?"
Chu Xingnuo pondered for a moment and said, "Feng Lin lied to you in order to save me. I apologize to you on his behalf. Please don't blame him."
The old patriarch shook his head: "I thought you were a smart little female, but I didn't expect you didn't see this clearly."
Chu Xingnuo: “……?”
Is not it?
The old chief said leisurely, "The orcs who keep the black jade are always chosen by me at random, and the length of time they keep it depends on my mood. It is impossible for the orcs in the tribe to easily know the whereabouts of the black jade. Only if they pay too much attention will they find a clue."
Chu Xingnuo: "It's not normal that Fenglin only found out where the black jade was stolen after asking in advance after he caught the orcs."
The old patriarch said: "When I said that the black jade was lost at Fengyue's place, the male was stunned for a moment."
"Just think about when a beast would behave like this."
Chu Xingnuo lowered his eyes slightly.
This situation only occurs when you don't understand the whole story and unexpected problems arise when everything is going according to plan.
If I had experienced it myself, I would never change my mind.
Is it...
A bad thought flashed through her mind.
"I know, I know. This kind of reaction will only occur when you hear others say it but you yourself are unaware of it." Feng Yue had an expression of "I'm so smart" and waited for the old patriarch to praise her.
The old patriarch stroked his beard and looked at Chu Xingnuo with a smile. He could tell from her black and white eyes that she had thought of it, but she praised Feng Yue generously.
On the way back with Feng Yue, Chu Xingnuo was in a daze. There were some things she couldn't figure out.
The old patriarch asked her if she needed to investigate further.
Her answer was no.
Some answers are good to know in your heart.
Not long after she returned to her residence, the matter of the theft of the black jade was clarified. Feng Yu said that he accidentally dropped the black jade into Feng Rao's tree hole, and Feng Rao casually threw the black jade into Chu Xingnuo's residence.
The beastmen all knew that this was not the real result, and no beast objected. They all accepted this false answer.
Now that the matter has been clarified, Qianli and the others don't have to pretend to be busy and run out all the time.
In the evening, Qianli and his friends prepared a large table of rich dishes and invited all the orcs who came to help.
At the dinner table, Chu Xingnuo expressed his gratitude to them one by one with fruit tea instead of wine.
Fengyue, Fengyu and Fenglin kept saying that they were welcome and it was all they should do.
Feng Luo played with the wine glass in her hand and said, "We have helped so much, and you just want to get rid of us with a meal. You little female are a bit stingy."
Chu Xingnuo asked with a smile in his eyes: "How can I express my gratitude so as not to appear stingy?"
Feng Luo tapped the table with her fingertips regularly: "You need to know why males are willing to help females and what they want most."
"It's no secret that Feng Lin likes you. Feng Yu doesn't like to talk much, so I said it for him. He was next to you in the bath last time." Feng Luo emphasized, "He didn't peek, he just thought it was interesting that you were talking to yourself, so he asked me to bring him closer to you."
"Pick one? Or take them all?"
Feng Lin's heart was pounding with excitement and he looked at her expectantly.
Fengyu looked calm, but his hands hidden under the table revealed his nervousness.
Feng Yue puffed up her cheeks and listened with her ears perked up.
Qian Li and the others were also curious about who Chu Xingnuo would choose.
Chu Xingnuo blurted out without any hesitation: "I choose you."
After she said this, all the males at the table were stunned. No one expected her to choose Feng Rao.
Only Fengyue was clapping beside Fengruo and kept congratulating her.
Feng Luo chuckled, her eyes moving: "I am a little flattered by your words, I..."
Xingchen interrupted the nonsense he was about to start: "If you don't want to, you can refuse. Don't say a bunch of nonsense."
Lan He echoed from the side: "That's right, you are a male so you should speak quickly and you can't keep Nono waiting."
After being interrupted, Feng Rao supported her head with one hand, her eyes full of displeasure at being interrupted.
Just when everyone thought Feng Rao would refuse, he glanced at Chu Xingnuo and said, "Wait for me in the evening."
The meaning of these four simple words is obvious.
Feng Lin stood up and questioned Chu Xingnuo: "Why did you choose him instead of me? We have known each other longer, and I have been with you longer. Didn't you say you liked me?"
Qian Li's face turned cold: "Watch your attitude when you speak, she is not someone you can yell at."
Yan Ye: "Don't force me to do anything to you!"
Feng Lin sat back in his chair without any temper, and said in a soft voice: "I want to know why."
Chu Xingnuo leaned on Qian Li's shoulder and looked at Feng Lin with disappointment in his eyes: "Yes, you have been with me longer and have given me a lot. I should have chosen you. Why didn't I choose you?"
"Because I hate temptation and deception."
Feng Lin's heart skipped a beat when he heard that, and there was a hint of panic in his eyes. He spoke for a long time without saying another word, and finally got up and left.
When Feng Yu saw Feng Lin leaving, he also stood up and said goodbye.
Only Fengyue left after finishing her meal.
After a not very pleasant dinner, Chu Xingnuo went back upstairs. Nan Xi followed her with the washed crystal to check her body.
Takizawa went up with the bath water and came down quickly.
Qian Li gave Feng Ruo many instructions downstairs, asking her to be gentle, careful, and not to act recklessly. In short, he reminded her of everything he could think of.
The corners of Feng Luo's mouth rose uncontrollably.
When Nan Xi came down from upstairs, they all left the tree hole, leaving only Nan Xi guarding the hole entrance.
Feng Rao came upstairs and did not see Chu Xingnuo. Listening to the sound of water coming from behind the curtain, he sat down half leaning against the window frame, and his eyes met with Nan Xi who was looking up at him.
Chu Xingnuo was thinking about things in her mind while taking a bath, so she took the bath for a long time, until the water temperature became cold, and then she came out of her own little world.
Remembering that the little scorpion would accompany her tonight, she changed into his favorite pajamas and did not rush out. Instead, she stretched her arm through the gap in the animal skin and hooked her finger at the male outside.
