19: Females who abandon their husbands and children without morality

"Father Beast, can you tell me about Mother?" Little Aqi stood in the water bucket as White Fox wiped him down with a beast skin.

"Why are you suddenly asking about your Female Mother?" White Fox asked.

Little Aqi peeked secretly at Nan Zhisui, who had her back to them. "I was thinking... if my mother isn't good... I want Pretty Older Sister to be my mother."

"Pfft!" Nan Zhisui, who was drinking water, spat it out immediately.

Hu Qi whispered, "Father Beast is already working so hard. If she isn't good enough, Father Beast should sever the partner relationship with her. Then we can be with Pretty Older Sister, okay?"

White Fox also glanced at Nan Zhisui, then asked Hu Qi with a smile, "Do you like her that much?"

"Yes, I like her."

The Little Cub's feelings were sincere and pure; Nan Zhisui took a large gulp of water.

After Hu Qi finished his hot bath and changed into clothes dried by the fire, he happily ran to Nan Zhisui's side, his White Fox ears twitching slightly with his movements.

"Pretty Older Sister saved Little Aqi again today. Little Aqi owes Pretty Older Sister once more."

Nan Zhisui couldn't help but rub his head.

"Pretty Older Sister is staying at our home today too, right?"

The Little fellow's acting spoiled was more natural than before. Nan Zhisui was melted by the cute cub, but she still tapped the tip of his nose and said, "My staying here is ultimately disturbing your lives."

"How could it be a disturbance?" Hu Qi grew anxious as he spoke. "I know, you're afraid of my Father Beast, right? My Father Beast has a sharp tongue but a soft heart; he hasn't disagreed!"

"If Father Beast doesn't agree, he's a big meanie! We'll all ignore him!"

"Sister..." Hu Qi tugged at her hand.

The little fox cub's mouth was so sweet!

Touched by the cute baby's enthusiasm, Nan Zhisui looked up at White Fox, only to see him tidying up the tub Hu Qi had bathed in.

The Male Fox sensed her gaze and raised his cold eyes. "It's raining outside. Aside from here, where else can you go?"

Nan Zhisui sighed in resignation.

The Minor Rainy Season had just arrived, and the rain fell in thin threads.

The Cave, which was already low-lying and damp, became even more humid. White Fox used a torch to smoke the Cave slightly, then used the only beast skin in the house to make the stone bed.

Nan Zhisui looked at the people in the Cave: a sickly invalid, a Little Snake Beastman, a Little Fox Beastman, and herself, a Female.

But there was only this one beast skin in the Cave.

In emergencies, Nan Zhisui had only exposed her space in front of the Little Snake Beastman and the Little Fox Beastman. Even the needles and medicine used for White Fox had only been taken out of the space in front of the cubs.

After all, they were still young; at most, they felt surprised and amazed, without thinking too much or questioning her thoroughly.

But she hadn't exposed her space in front of White Fox yet.

Nan Zhisui was now hesitating whether to take bedding out of her space to use.

Better not; after all, she wasn't very familiar with this Male yet. It would be too reckless to reveal her trump card like this.

"Is Pretty Older Sister still unwilling to live in my home?" Little Hu Qi looked at Nan Zhisui pitifully.

Nan Zhisui quickly explained, "How could that be? I'm alone and wandering outside; it's already very good to have a place to take me in. I'm not that tactless."

White Fox slightly narrowed his eyes, his gaze filled with confusion.

Alone? Wandering outside?

Shouldn't an immoral Female like her, who abandoned her husband and son, be fluttering from flower to flower with plenty of beast husbands?

How could she be alone? And how could she be wandering outside?

Hu Qi asked, "Then why are you worrying?"

The Male Beastman standing aside also looked up at her with a slight glance.

Nan Zhisui cleared her throat and said, "It's like this: there are four of us now, but only one beast skin and one bed. I'm thinking about how we should sleep tonight."

"What's there to think about?" Hu Qi's fluffy white tail wagged happily. "Pretty Older Sister sleeps on the bed, and the three of us can just find any place to lie down."

White Fox, who had been quiet for a long time, also spoke slowly. "The Female sleeps on the bed."

"How can that be? The rain outside is so heavy, and the ground is damp. The two Little Cubs definitely won't be able to stand it. Besides, your health is so poor; the dampness of the Cave might be part of the reason. If you don't sleep on the bed, don't even think about getting better."

The several beastmen of various sizes present all froze.

In the Beast World, Females were both precious and delicate, always pampered by the Males.

Therefore, most Females only cared about themselves and rarely concerned themselves with the Males and cubs.

Little Hu Qi and Little Snake Yang looked at Nan Zhisui with even more dependent and adorable gazes.

Little Hu Qi gave Nan Zhisui a bear hug, rubbed against her, and acted spoiled. "Pretty Older Sister~"

Little Snake Yang's snake body also wrapped around Nan Zhisui's arm, his little head nudging against it.

Nan Zhisui: "..."

The Little Cubs were just too cute; she couldn't handle it.

Nan Zhisui said, "How about the three of you sleep on the bed? I have a strong constitution; I'll just warm myself by the fire all night."

"No!" "No!" "Hiss hiss!"

They said in unison.

White Fox coughed twice. When he looked up at Nan Zhisui, his gaze was a few degrees softer than before.

"Aqi and I have fox forms; we have thick fur on our bodies, so we won't be cold in this weather. We can huddle together for warmth. She Yang can also join us. We won't be cold."

"You're different; you don't have fur like ours. So... be good and sleep on the bed."

White Fox's words were logical. Facing three pairs of firm eyes, Nan Zhisui was utterly defeated, 1 to 3.

She compromised. "Alright."

The fire burned nearby. White Fox transformed into a beautiful fox form and slept to the side with the two Little Cubs.

Nan Zhisui turned over, watching the burning flames, then looked at White Fox and the cubs.

She had spent a year in the Beast World before. In the Beast World, besides those few old fogies in Myriad Beast City, how many beastmen knew how to use fire?

Not only did White Fox know how to use it, but he was also proficient.

Furthermore, he could even use fire to cook food.

Nan Zhisui couldn't help but recall the White Fox Priest Apprentice she had met over a year ago.

That Priest Apprentice's face was covered in strange fox totems. He was about twenty years old; though his body wasn't that strong, he wasn't as weak as White Fox.

He often smiled at her; he was a bright, cheerful, beautiful, and charming White Fox Male.

He would take the initiative to approach her and even performed a dance for her.

After finishing his dance, he leaped to her side with a jump, his eyes so charming they seemed to be seducing her. "Nan Zhisui, you can use fire; you're so amazing!"

Nan Zhisui couldn't help but laugh as he smiled at her excitedly. "We're all very afraid of fire, especially forest fires."

"When I was little, my Father Beast told me that only a Great Sage can use fire. Are you a sage?"

After adding firewood, Nan Zhisui smiled at him while adding ingredients to cook. "What's so hard about using fire? Want to learn? I'll teach you. That way, you won't just be a Priest Apprentice; you'll be a Great Sage."
