The two's subtle movements naturally did not escape Xixi's notice, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised, "You two know each other?"

“Of course I recognize him, I even had a crush on Uncle Fatty!” Nuannuan answered smoothly, as if the other person was asking, “Have you eaten?” She casually replied, “Yes.”

"Chase?" Xi Xi was taken aback. This plot seemed so familiar. "Could it be the kind of 'chase' I'm thinking of?"

"Yeah! It's that guy, the one I always wanted when I was little, Fatty Uncle to be my beast husband!" She said it as if she had no heart, but Fatty Orange suddenly felt uneasy and frantically winked at Nuan Nuan.

Silly Nuannuan, please stop talking!

Unfortunately, Nuannuan got so caught up in her story that she didn't notice anything amiss, and even asked, "What's wrong, Uncle? What happened to your eyes? Did you get sand in them?"

"Wait! Uncle Fatty... Uncle... You're both so old... Wait, my head is a little fuzzy..." Xixi rubbed her throbbing temples, her gaze sweeping back and forth between the two men. Suddenly, she felt that their faces were strangely similar, both having round, harmless faces that gave off a sense of innocence and cuteness.

But their ages... Fatty Orange said he just turned 18 this year, while Nuan Nuan said she's been married for three years, which means she should be 21 now.

A 21-year-old married female should call an 18-year-old unmarried male "uncle". If it is a special nickname, she should always call him "fat uncle" instead of the single syllable "uncle".

Moreover, as far as she knew, beastmen did not place much importance on age or seniority. Unless they were very close relatives by blood, they would call each other by their given names and rarely used nicknames other than their given names.

Could it be that, by blood, Fatty Orange is Nuan Nuan's real uncle?

It is a well-known fact that Fat Orange is the chief's son, and their interactions suggest a normal father-son relationship.

Nuan Nuan is the granddaughter of the Witch Chief, a fact acknowledged by both the Witch Chief and Nuan Nuan herself.

Uncle, uncle?

She had a bold conjecture before, but now she feels that the conjecture is not bold enough!

From the subtle interactions between the chieftain and the shaman, she sensed that their relationship was unusual and guessed that they might be having an affair, since it was an ironclad rule that the chieftain could not become the shaman's beast husband.

Unexpectedly, the two not only got together, but also had a child!

So, they must have gotten together at least after Nuannuan was born!

But Nuannuan is a grandchild, and Pangju is a child. This... I have to say that the chief witch is indeed the chief witch. Her fertility is not only strong, but also enduring!

It sounds complicated, but it was really just a fleeting thought that passed through my mind, and it didn't last long at all.

Xixi looked at the two people's identical round faces and found them to be more and more alike, just like the witch chief's round face!

"Um... who knows about your relationship?" It can't be that everyone knows, otherwise it would have spread by now!

That's breaking the rules!

“Originally, nobody knew. We two just saw it… uh… figured it out ourselves. My grandma and the others didn’t even know we knew! Hmm… now there’s you too. All things considered, including both parties involved, that’s about the number!” Nuannuan stretched out a hand and waved it in front of herself.

So, there are five people in total: the two parties involved, a son and a grandson, and an outsider like her!

Haha... I hope I won't get silenced for eating this melon!

Just then, Li Hui looked over at Nuan Nuan, seemingly wondering why they were gathered together. She quickly put on a bright smile and waved the ham in her hand, "You must all be tired. Come and rest for a while. The beastmen of Xixi are treating everyone to dinner!"

Wow! The way the title changes so quickly. Just a moment ago it was Fatty Uncle, and now it's Xixi's Beast Husband.

In other words, she received food from Xixi, not from Pangju, which is a fundamental difference.

The look of doubt on Li Hui's face disappeared, and he shook his head with a smile, "No, when I went back to move the table, I saw that Jin Da had already prepared the meal and was just waiting for us to come back and eat!"

The beastmen weren't here just now, and it would be fine for the females to help out out of friendship, but now that the beastmen have returned, it's a bit inappropriate for them to just stand there.

Nuannuan nodded and waved for the beastmen to go back first, as she had some things to say to Xixi.

"Uncle Fatty, I'm not trying to be mean, but how could you leave Xixi alone at home?"

"Xixi, you're not just staying at home, you're also busy tidying up. What if something happens to you?"

"In the end, we still need to recruit more beastmen. That way, the work will be done efficiently. Look at my three beastmen; they cleaned your house spotless in no time. That's what you call strength in numbers! Let me tell you, I currently have eight beastmen, which is considered few in the lynx tribe. And now, I've already found three more. We'll see how they perform during the autumn hunt, and if they're suitable, we'll recruit them!"

"Xixi, I'm talking to you. Look at me! Why are you looking at Uncle Pang? Is it because Uncle Pang won't let you take a beast husband?" As she said this, her voice cracked again as she looked at the fat orange who had been inexplicably chosen.

"Uncle Fatty, how could you do such a thing? You...you have really disappointed me! No, I have to tell Grandma about this and let her punish you in the name of the witch chief!"

Judging from what she said, if someone didn't know the truth, they would think that Fatty Orange had done something utterly heinous!

However, if this were in modern times, these things that she considers perfectly reasonable would probably be the ones that truly incur divine wrath and public resentment!

Xixi quickly pulled the person back, "Hey! Don't!"

"Xixi, don't worry, I always help those in the right, not those in my own family. I'm going to take charge of this!" she shouted angrily, even refusing to eat the ham in her hand, looking as if she was about to start a fight.

At this moment, Fatty Orange stood there helplessly. The tall man, over six feet tall, dared not do anything. He opened and closed his mouth for a long time, but only managed to utter a few sounds: "No... I... I didn't... Xixi... can take... beast husbands... I can... help... Xixi take... many, many... all of them... I..."

"Alright, nothing's wrong, Nuannuan, you're overthinking it!" Seeing Pangju's helpless look, Xixi couldn't help but laugh, shaking her head helplessly, "Pangju and I are still in our honeymoon period, and we don't want any other beast husbands to get involved. This matter has nothing to do with Pangju, it was my idea... um... your Uncle Pang didn't stop me from taking other beast husbands, so don't worry!"

"Really?" Nuan Nuan was still a little skeptical.

"Really, more real than real gold!"

As Xixi said this, Fatty Orange nodded frantically beside her. He was internally devastated. What was going on? It felt even harder than hunting!
