A vile, ugly, and fat female? A chaotic scene of six beastly husbands vying for her favor.

Chapter 34 is for you, a reward.

"You go in first."

The tail opened slightly.

The four males glared at Ling Yu with disgust before turning away disdainfully.

After all, she's a female with a tail, and since she's already here, we have to give her some face.

For a moment, only Ling Yu and Wei remained at the cave entrance.

Wei frowned as he looked at the female in front of him. She seemed to have lost some weight, with round cheeks, a pointed chin, and fair skin with a faint blush.

Every time I see her, she seems a little different.

"I... I was just passing by and came in to take shelter from the rain."

Ling Yu pursed her lips nervously, then looked up at the man cautiously: "I know it's because of what happened in the past. You don't believe me, but I'll tell you now..."

"Ah chirp!"

Ling Yu suddenly sneezed, making her even more embarrassed.

Half of her body was soaked by the cold wind and rain. The chill made her nose itch, and she couldn't help but rub the tip of her nose, which became even redder.

"I'm sorry, I'm just... Achoo!"

Another sneeze, catching me completely off guard.

She was so embarrassed that she didn't dare to look up, her body trembling, and she covered her mouth for fear of making a fool of herself again.

At this moment, the silent tail finally spoke: "Move over."

"Huh? Oh."

Ling Yu carefully moved her feet inside.

Watching her stumble and walk awkwardly with her sprained ankle, Wei thought, "This female has really changed. She seems so well-behaved and sensible now."

When she got to a spot a little further inside the cave, she didn't dare go any further. She looked up at him, looking rather awkward.

He frowned slightly and took two steps closer to her.

"Since you're just passing by, wait for the rain to stop and then leave. They're processing their prey inside; it's not suitable for you to go in."

Ling Yu looked at him with some surprise.

He seemed to treat her better this time, unlike the other four who misunderstood her.

The location of the last station seems to block the wind blowing towards her.

A subtle ripple suddenly stirred in her heart.

Wei was still as gentle and considerate as ever, just like when Mei bullied him when he took the meat last time. Even though he didn't trust her, he still gave in in the end.

It feels so gentle.

"Thank you."

Ling Yu thanked them softly, then said that they were processing the newly hunted prey inside.

As far as she knew, in addition to cutting and distributing the meat, they would also skin the prey.

She is currently making a thermal animal skin lining coat and urgently needs a piece of animal skin.

Especially fresh, unprocessed animal hides, after being tanned in her special way, will become even warmer.

She blurted out, "Could I have a piece of animal hide?"

The moment she said it, she regretted it.

Tail's face visibly darkened. This female had indeed not changed her nature; she was still as greedy and selfish as ever.

When he spoke again, his tone was stiff and cold:

"No."

Ling Yu was stunned.

Was the rejection so complete? Without even a moment's hesitation...

“Tail, I’m not doing this for myself. I want to make a warm animal skin garment, using hemp fibers to make wearable cloth, sewing it together with animal skin, and filling it with warm down grass, so that everyone won’t be cold in winter.”

"Can I try one?"

Her soft voice carried a hint of pleading and coquettishness as she looked up at him expectantly, her words devoid of any harsh command, only gentle and persuasive tone.

Wei's expression softened a bit.

Perhaps he misunderstood her. The warm animal skin coat she mentioned was something he had never heard of before, but from her simple description, he could imagine what its function was.

People have made many efforts to survive the harsh winter.

But none of them yielded any results.

“It’s good that you have this idea. Hunting is difficult in the cold winter and animal hides are in short supply. They need to be given priority to newborns and females who are pregnant or lactating.”

Ling Yu understood what he meant.

She agreed with this reasoning; the more special the times, the more we should take care of those who need it most, and any ideals we put forward are considered a waste unless we can provide proof.

"I understand. I'll think of another way myself."

She didn't mean to blame him at all, but Wei looked at her again with a surprised and scrutinizing gaze.

Is this the first time a female has been so understanding?
"Can you make the warm animal hide clothing you described?"

Wei stared at her and asked in a deep voice.

These days he's been busy with the tribe's resources, and he's heard all the rumors about her.

Her personality changed drastically; she became increasingly clean, lost a significant amount of weight, and even gained the ability to cure diseases that the tribe's shamans struggled to treat. Perhaps she harbors some unknown secrets...

He should reconsider everything she said.

Ling Yu nodded: "Yes! I can."

So certain? He raised an eyebrow almost imperceptibly, his tone indifferent:

"It's easy to say."

Ling Yu suddenly felt as if she had been mocked, but when she looked up at the man's cold face and the calm, unwavering depths of his slightly upturned fox eyes, she realized that she might be overthinking things.

"Then... if I make it, what will you give me in return?"

She asked tentatively.

His eyes betrayed his unease and nervousness.

Wei saw through her little scheme and said calmly, "If you can make it and it really saves the people from freezing, I can give you a reward."

The word 'reward' was emphasized.

His cool voice carried a gentle, controlling quality, and for some reason, Ling Yu's heart skipped a beat, and her face flushed slightly.

"Okay, then we've settled."

Ling Yu quietly adjusted her disordered breathing and stared intently at the tail.

There seemed to be a slight upturn at the corners of her lips, but it was as if there wasn't. Could it be that she had been tricked into his trap?
No, probably not.

With his aloof personality, he wouldn't waste his time with me.

How did you hurt your foot?

"Huh?" Ling Yu reacted a beat late, and honestly said, "I lost my balance and twisted my ankle."

He paused, then added a further explanation:
“I really didn’t mean to falsely accuse those men, but they seem to have misunderstood me and won’t listen to my explanation.”

"sit down."

Ling Yujian raised her chin slightly, gesturing for her to sit on the rock behind her.

She looked up, bewildered. Was he worried she was getting tired of standing? But she did seem quite tired.

Just as she carefully sat down, she saw Wei suddenly bend down.

Before she could react, a sharp pain shot through her ankle, so intense that she cried out and tears welled up in her eyes!
"Ouch...it hurts!!"

Ling Yu cried out, tears streaming down her face, "You...you hurt me...sob..."

Wei had already stood up, looking down at the female's aggrieved and choked-up appearance.

That slightly delicate voice, when it cried, sounded like a kitten meowing; it wasn't unpleasant, but rather rather endearing.

The softest part of his heart was touched; it was a very special feeling.

"Still hurts?"

Hearing his cold voice, Ling Yu was about to say that it hurt, but then she realized that the place where her ankle was sprained no longer hurt.

They become much more agile and flexible when they move around.

She quickly stood up and took two steps in surprise: "You were helping me just now? I didn't even know, I thought... thank you."

He stared at her eyelashes, which still held glistening teardrops.

That bewildered look on his face showed a mixture of joy, surprise, and shyness...

A special feeling welled up inside me again.

"The rain has stopped, let's go back."

He finished speaking calmly, then turned and left.

Ling Yu was left standing there, completely bewildered. Looking at his tall figure, she wondered to herself, "Does he think I talk too much?"
