After seeing Yin Ling off, He Jiaojiao sat down again.

He Jiaojiao had just eaten and chatted with Yinling, and had unknowingly eaten her fill. She stopped eating and chose to sit next to Ziyi and watch him eat.

"Won't you have some more?"

Zi Yi looked at the fish soup and grilled fish that were still left. He wasn't actually that hungry. He used to eat every two or three days, but since he followed He Jiaojiao, he'd been eating three meals a day. How could he possibly be hungry?

"Chiyan, do you want to try it?"

Zi Yi said as he served a large bowl of fish soup.

Looking at the fish soup in Ziyi's bowl, Chi Yan pretended not to care at all, but he was very curious in his heart. After all, he had just seen them eating it with great relish. Even Yinling from the tribe praised it highly and said that she would let her partner come over to learn how to make it.

"Chiyan, try it, it's really delicious."

Seeing that Chi Yan was a little shaken, He Jiaojiao also joined the team to persuade him.

"Here, try it. If you don't like it, don't eat it. We won't force you."

Having said that, if Chi Yan doesn't try again, it would seem a bit too inhumane.

Under the watchful eyes of He Jiaojiao and Zi Yi, Chi Yan brought the fish soup to his lips. It didn't smell fishy as he'd imagined, but rather fragrant. Chi Yan glanced at the two people across from him, seeing their eager gazes. He couldn't help but smile and took a sip of the soup.

The delicious and fragrant fish soup brought unprecedented satisfaction to Chi Yan's mouth. He widened his eyes in surprise. This time, he took a big sip.

"How about it?"

He Jiaojiao supported her chin and looked at Chi Yan with anticipation. The fact that he tried the second bite proved that he could accept the taste of the fish soup made He Jiaojiao very happy.

After all, we will most likely be living together in the future, and it would be too troublesome if we can't eat together.

“Mmm, it’s delicious!”

Chi Yan answered in a low voice, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Really?" Zi Yi smiled and walked over to Chi Yan, putting his hand on Chi Yan's shoulder like a good friend. "When I ate it for the first time, I was also amazed. I never thought that this thorn beast would be so delicious."

"sorry!"

After a long time, Chi Yan finally managed to utter these words.

Zi Yi looked at Chi Yan in confusion, not understanding why he suddenly apologized to her.

"My tone wasn't very good just now, I..."

Seeing Chi Yan lowering his head with an embarrassed look, Zi Yi realized that he was apologizing to him for what happened before, so he couldn't help laughing.

"These are all small matters. We four will be a family from now on, so don't worry too much about it."

Chi Yan, who was originally a little embarrassed, was infected by Zi Yi's laughter and couldn't help but laugh along.

Seeing that their relationship had become good again, He Jiaojiao couldn't help but laugh along.

Afterwards, the two of them finished all the remaining fish soup and grilled fish. Of course, Zi Yi was very careful and scooped some out and sent it to Mo Ran who was hatching eggs upstairs.

Seeing that the three of them got along so well, He Jiaojiao finally felt relieved.

After dinner, He Jiaojiao felt well enough and wanted to look around. She had been eating meat recently and it was rare for her to eat fish today. She had never eaten vegetables since she came here. She was eager to see if there were any vegetables she recognized in the Beast World. She really missed it.

Things have been peaceful recently, and with Chi Yan of Qixing following him, Zi Yi naturally took He Jiaojiao out boldly.

Riding on the majestic white tiger, He Jiaojiao felt very cool. Compared with her previous discomfort, He Jiaojiao could now sit very steadily.

Chi Yan still maintained his orc appearance, following beside them, step by step.

Not long after leaving the tribe, He Jiaojiao saw a very familiar plant. She hurriedly patted Ziyi on the back and signaled him to stop.

After sliding down from the tiger's back, He Jiaojiao couldn't wait to walk towards the plant, but she didn't pay attention to her feet and grimaced in pain.

"Jiaojiao!"

Zi Yi was shocked and immediately turned back into human form and wanted to pick up He Jiaojiao, but a flash of fiery red rushed out before him and directly picked up He Jiaojiao.

"injured?"

Chi Yan's tone revealed nervousness. It was the first time He Jiaojiao saw him like this, and she felt flattered.

"It's okay. I think I stepped on a sharp stone and got scratched."

Chi Yan squatted down and let He Jiaojiao sit on his lap before he checked He Jiaojiao's feet. This was the first time he had seen a female's feet so directly. He had never expected them to be so white and so small. Holding them in his palms gave him a strange feeling.

"It's okay, it's just a red spot!"

Chi Yan breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't dare let He Jiaojiao act on her own no matter what.

Seeing He Jiaojiao's red little feet, Zi Yi felt very guilty. If he had not put He Jiaojiao down just now, Jiaojiao would not have been injured.

"I am okay!"

He Jiaojiao saw Zi Yi with his head drooping and looking weak, and couldn't help but smile and touch his head to comfort him.

"Jiaojiao, you'd better stay on my beast and don't get down!" Ziyi said with lingering fear.

"it is good!"

Although she agreed verbally, He Jiaojiao had other plans in mind. She had observed that most of the beastmen in the Beast World went barefoot. Males were fine, as they mostly walked in their animal form in the wild, so they wouldn't get hurt. But females were no different from humans, and if they weren't careful, they could get their feet scratched by a stone, just like she had just done.

If I could make a pair of shoes...

In her previous life, He Jiaojiao participated in a reality show in order to promote her new album. The show was recorded in a rural area. Out of curiosity, she squatted on the side of the road and watched an old man weaving straw sandals, and even tried it.

"Is this what you wanted just now?"

Zi Yi walked over and pulled out the plant that He Jiaojiao had just set her eyes on.

He Jiaojiao nodded, took it in her hand and looked at it, then put it to her nose and smelled it, and immediately smiled with joy. This was indeed water celery.

"Is this edible?"

Seeing He Jiaojiao looking so happy, Zi Yi couldn't help but ask.

"Yeah!" He Jiaojiao nodded happily, "It's just that the taste of this dish is quite strong, I guess some people won't like it."

Zi Yi didn't say anything about this. Food is precious in the animal world. Apart from He Jiaojiao, there shouldn't be many people who would be picky about food. For them, being able to eat it is already good enough.

"Can you help me see if there are any more nearby? I want to pick some and stir-fry them."

Ziyi naturally agreed to He Jiaojiao's request without hesitation and immediately went to search nearby. Fortunately, water celery plants usually grow in patches. Following He Jiaojiao's request, Ziyi chose to pick the tenderer ones instead of pulling them out by the roots. Soon, he had gathered a large handful. Ziyi then used a small section of vine to tie up the water celery before returning to He Jiaojiao.
