When Beauty Meets Beasts-Chapter 26 - Fair Play

Early the next morning, Lin Huanhuan was awakened by the sound of a wall being smashed.

She thought that someone had come looking for trouble again, so she immediately got out of bed and rushed out with the bone knife.

However, she saw that a huge hole had been smashed into her rock wall.

As for the person who smashed the wall, it was actually Shuang Yun!

When Lin Huanhuan saw that he was the one who smashed the wall, she instantly became furious.

“Are you crazy? Why did you smash my wall for no reason?!”

When he saw her coming, the tips of his ears involuntarily turned red, but the expression on his face was still arrogant. “This is not only your wall but also my wall. I can smash it however I want. It’s none of your business!”

“This is my home! When did it become your home?!”

“You’re already my mate. Your home is my home!”

Shuang Yun was very arrogant when he said this, but his eyes subconsciously glanced at Lin Huanhuan’s face. His sharp wolf claws slowed down their digging.

He was worried. What if she refused to acknowledge the mate bond between them?

After all, he wasn’t like Bai Di.

He could not please her, nor did he have the strength of a three-starred soul beast.

When Lin Huanhuan heard his words, she was first stunned, then she couldn’t help but blush.

She glared at him angrily. “Even so, you can’t just smash walls!”

When he saw that she didn’t deny what he said, he knew that she had acknowledged their mate bond. Delighted, he immediately resumed his digging.

“I need to merge the two caves. It’ll be more convenient this way.” f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m

Convenient?

Of course, it would be convenient for him to kidnap the little female into his bed!

It made no sense that the big tiger could hug the little female to sleep, while he could only sleep alone in the next room. He had to fight for his own benefits!

At this moment, Bai Di stepped out.

He had already heard the conversation between Shuang Yun and Lin Huanhuan just now. He knew Shuang Yun’s thoughts like the back of his hand, but he had no intention of exposing Shuang Yun.

He said to Lin Huanhuan, “You just woke up, right? I made some vegetable soup and left it on the fire to heat it up. Hurry up and have some.”

“Okay.”

After Lin Huanhuan left, Bai Di looked at Shuang Yun, who was busy digging a hole. He said slowly, “You saved my life, and I also helped you once. We’re even. In the future, we’ll compete fairly.”

Shuang Yun naturally knew what Bai Di meant by ‘fair competition’. He immediately retorted without showing any weakness.

“I’ve been waiting for you to say that. We’ll play fair! I’ll never let you win!”

Bai Di smiled. “We’ll see.”

He was about to turn away when he heard Shuang Yun speak again.

“Although I don’t know why you’re here despite being a three-starred soul beast, I have to warn you. No matter what your purpose is, I won’t let you off if you have any intention of harming the Rock Wolf Tribe!”

Bai Di paused and gave him a casual look. “I just want to spend my life with Huanhuan. I don’t care about anything else.”

“Hmph!”

…

Lin Huanhuan walked into the kitchen and found that in addition to the vegetable soup, there was a Sourcing Leaf Fruit that had been washed.

She could smell the sweet aroma from the palm-sized green fruit as soon as she approached it.

Lin Huanhuan took a sip of the vegetable soup. It tasted very good!

It was so much better than the vegetable soup she made! 𝑓𝑟eℯ𝒘𝗲𝑏n𝑜𝚟𝙚𝒍.𝒄o𝐦

It seemed that Bai Di was very talented in cooking. He had only cooked a few times, but his culinary skills were already so good. She had to train his cooking skills. She wanted him to become the number one chef in this era!

When she thought about being able to eat a full-scale banquet feast like those in ancient times, Lin Huanhuan felt that her future would be filled with happiness!

Lin Huanhuan finished the vegetable soup in one gulp before taking the Sourcing Leaf Fruit and slowly chewing on it.

She was thinking about what had just happened.

Shuang Yun’s words reminded her that she was already bonded to two male beasts.

The three of them would have to live together for the next three months.

Hopefully, the two males would get through this period in peace.

…

Bai Di and Shuang Yun had returned from outside. They not only brought back Sourcing Leaf Fruits but also a large bag of another sweet fruit.

This particular fruit grew all year round, but the fruit did not taste as sweet in winter compared to other seasons. The fruit in winter tasted both sweet and sour. Many females did not like it, but Lin Huanhuan thought it was very good.

There were a lot of fruits. Bai Di and Shuang Yun did not like them, but Lin Huanhuan could not finish them alone.

Hence, she divided the seemingly endless supply of fruits into two. One portion was crushed to make jam, while the other was stored in a stone jar in the cellar. She intended to make fruit wine.

Bai Di and Shuang Yun had brought back some herbs as well.

Lin Huanhuan prepared some of the more precious and rare medicinal herbs.

She called Shuang Yun over and handed him the herbs wrapped in animal hide. “Take these to the old witch doctor. He put in a lot of effort to save you and Bai Di. These herbs are a thank you gift for him.”

Shuang Yun snorted. “You have to pay me to have me run errands for you.”

“What do you want?”

“I want you to sleep with me tonight!”

Lin Huanhuan’s face instantly turned red. “Why are you spouting nonsense in broad daylight?!”

“We’re mates. It’s only right and proper for us to sleep together!” Shuang Yun raised his chin in a matter-of-fact manner.

“B-But I’m used to sleeping alone. I don’t want to sleep with anyone else for a while.”

“You’re lying!” Shuang Yun was indignant. “You used to sleep with that tiger every night. Sometimes, he would touch you and you’d make very sweet, seductive sounds. I heard them all!”

Lin Huanhuan: “…”

Why was the soundproofing of the rock walls so bad? She wanted to lodge a complaint!

Lin Huanhuan, who had been exposed on the spot, became even more embarrassed now. She avoided Shuang Yun’s gaze and said, “That’s different.”

“What’s different about it?!”

Lin Huanhuan thought about it and decided to lay it all out. “Bai Di and I are in love, but you don’t like me. I only treat you as a friend. I think it would be better if the two of us don’t sleep together.”

Shuang Yun froze.

A look of hurt flashed across his dark green eyes.

He clenched his fists and glared at Lin Huanhuan indignantly. He gritted his teeth and said, “What do you mean by that? Are you trying to say that you don’t like me at all? Then why did you make me your mate?!”

“It was an emergency back then. If I hadn’t made you my mate, you wouldn’t have had an easy time evolving. You’d probably lose your life because of it. I couldn’t leave you in the lurch.”

“Now that I’ve completed my evolution, what are you going to do? Abandon me?” Shuang Yun tried to raise his chin high so that he looked domineering and not at all terrified by the other party’s words.

“We didn’t bond by mating, so we’re not really mates. In three months, our bond will automatically dissolve and you’ll be free again.”

Lin Huanhuan spoke very sincerely.

She said all this after much deliberation.

Shuang Yun didn’t like females. Forcing him to mate with one would certainly upset him.

She didn’t want to see him upset.
