Surviving in the Beast World with a System-Chapter 128: Blushed

The Beastman in the lead was all smiles, his gaze on Wu Yue carrying an unusual fervor.

"Little female, do you remember me?"

Wu Yue felt awkward. "And you are...?"

The surrounding Lion Tribe Beastmen roared with laughter, one of them slapping the Beastman on the shoulder. "Little female, this is the guy you saved last time! The one who was bitten by the Snake Beast."

A smile touched Wu Yue’s lips. "Oh, it’s you! Your injury was on your thigh, so I never saw your face."

The Beastman scratched his head sheepishly. "I was looking for you for a long time. My tribesmen told me the one who saved me was a female who looked a lot like us Beastmen, but I searched all over and couldn’t find anyone like that.

So I just went and asked someone from your tribe, and that’s how I found out it was you.

Little female, you’re much prettier than they described. You’re just a little on the skinny side. You should eat more meat." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Wu Yue: "..."

’Are you here to thank me, or are you representing the entire Lion Tribe in a mission to offend me?’

’What does he mean, "looked a lot like you guys"?’

That unflattering description reminded her of what Teng Qian used to call her—the unfriendly nickname "Lion Head."

"Heh, I really appreciate that!"

The Beastman chuckled, rubbing his head. "No need to be polite. You saved my life, so it’s only right that I repay you."

With that, he took the Beast Skins from the other Beastmen’s hands and placed them all in front of Wu Yue.

"These are all Beast Skins from my hunts."

The Beastman’s expression turned earnest. "Thank you for saving my life."

Just as Wu Yue was about to refuse, Yuan Lang gently pressed her hand down and, with a smile, looked at the Lion Tribe Beastman. "If it’s a thank-you gift, then Yue will accept it."

The Beastman gave Wu Yue a surprised look. "Kind and clever little female, I’m surprised to see your mate is such a powerful Beastman Warrior."

Wu Yue was about to say something, but the Beastman’s next words made her swallow them right back down. "I was even planning to go to the Clan Leader and ask to make you my second mate."

His face was filled with regret.

The Lion Tribe Beastmen beside him all looked at Wu Yue with expressions of pity. "What a shame! This guy is our Clan Leader’s son. He’s a fast learner, too. After the next tribe ritual, he’s set to become a Silver rank Beastman."

Wu Yue let out a dry laugh, then grabbed Yuan Lang’s arm with a brilliant smile. "That really is a shame. My mate will only ever have me as his female. And besides, he’s *also* a Silver rank Beastman."

’So infuriating!’

’If she hadn’t just seen her own face while washing up this morning, she would have started to wonder if she had "I want to be a second wife" written across her forehead in huge letters.’

’Ever since she arrived in this Beast World, the offers to become someone’s second wife had been relentless.’

’What kind of society was this, where becoming a second wife was considered a prestigious occupation?’

Feeling the warmth of her touch on his arm, Yuan Lang felt his heart flutter nervously, as if a pair of small hands were kneading it, sometimes lightly, sometimes firmly.

He desperately tried to compose himself, but the heat flooding his face told him...

’Damn it! Him—the wise, mighty, and exceptionally handsome—was actually blushing?’

’How could he be having such a girlish reaction?’

After accepting the large pile of gifts, they saw off the group of Lion Tribe Beastman Warriors who had done nothing but twist the knife.

Only then did Wu Yue let go of Yuan Lang’s hand. "Sorry about that. Those Beastmen were just so infuriating, that’s why I said you were my mate."
