Dressed in camouflage, the dashing and energetic Si Yan looked up. It seed like soone was coming.
Then, with a light leap, she jumped onto a tree branch and, after a few more jumps, left the scene where she’d stealthily beaten soone up.
Hearing the commotion, Jie Ling hurried over.
"Brother Hu Que! What happened to you?" Jie Ling prodded Hu Que, who imdiately cried out in pain.
Hu Que, beaten until he saw stars, let out an "OUCH!" and struggled out of the sack. "Which bastard did this despicable thing?! OUCH, it hurts so much, OUCH!"
Only then did Jie Ling help Hu Que pull off the beast skin sack, as Hu Que continued to cry out in pain.
"Brother Hu Que..." Jie Ling looked very distressed.
"It must have been that rascal Si Yan!" Hu Que grimaced, covering his face. "That scoundrel actually disguised himself as a female, jumped down, and beat up!"
Jie Ling asked, "Are you sure it was Teacher Si Yan? Not only can Teacher Si Yan do arithtic, but he also knows how to fight?"
Hu Que ground his teeth in anger. "I’m in this state, and you’re still worried about that Si Yan? This is infuriating, truly infuriating! I must have my revenge!"
Jie Ling said weakly, "But... but Si Yan has Lord Ming Yan’s support. Maybe we should just let it go."
Hu Que retorted, "How can we let this go?! I may not be able to deal with Si Yan, but can’t I handle his younger brothers?"
Jie Ling asked, "What do you an?"
Hu Que stared at Jie Ling, then said, "Jie Ling, I’ve helped you so much. This ti, it’s your turn to help ."
「Later...」
Si Yan returned ho and changed her clothes. Having given Hu Que a good thrashing, she felt refreshed and happily prepared to go to bed. Feeling relaxed, she soon fell asleep. Probably because she slept during the day, this ti she didn’t have those strange, erotic dreams.
However, her sleep didn’t last long; soon, there was a lot of chatter outside. Si Yan’s morning grumpiness flared, and she sat up, extrely impatient.
This ti, the Tiger Beast at her door was Hu Qiao.
"Why are you here?" Si Yan looked at the young Tiger Beast doubtfully.
Hu Qiao said to Si Yan, "Teacher Si Yan, your three younger brothers are in trouble."
Her three little ones?
Si Yan instantly beca alert and strode towards Hu Qiao. "What happened?"
Hu Qiao said, "They stole the at that was allocated to Jie Ling."
"???" Si Yan turned around sharply. "They stole sothing?"
Hu Qiao nodded.
Si Yan almost laughed out loud. Her three little ones ate and drank better than anyone else; what reason would they have to steal anything?
"Let’s go take a look."
When Si Yan arrived, Dongchi was protecting Xi Qing and Bei Ji behind him.
Dongchi said, "You’re saying the at in my hands is yours?"
Jie Ling cried pitifully. "I know you brothers don’t like , but you didn’t have to steal my food! I’m not an adult yet, and I don’t have a male partner. I have so little to eat. If you take it away, aren’t you trying to starve to death?"
Jie Ling had a fresh and delicate appearance. When this tiny young female cried so prettily, the hearts of the hot-blooded males present imdiately softened.
"Oh, dear Jie Ling, don’t cry. When you co of age, I’ll be the first to be your male, alright?"
"Jie Ling, don’t cry, don’t cry! If they dare to bully you, we brothers will get justice for you!"
Watching this scene, Si Yan narrowed her eyes slightly. The delicate cries of the female lead made all the males present unable to resist being moved. If she weren’t underage, she could have contracted a whole bunch by now. That was also the original story’s setting. This setting was almost like a cheat ability. But these males were also far too naive. The protagonist, Jie Ling, had only one goal from start to finish: to collect the finest male from each species. She wouldn’t spare ordinary males a second glance.
As Jie Ling sobbed delicately, the males at the scene gradually lost their composure.
"What’s going on?" Si Yan strode over, interrupting Jie Ling’s cries.
The males’ rationality slowly returned.
Seeing Si Yan arrive, Jie Ling trotted over, trying to grab Si Yan’s hand.
Si Yan subtly avoided her.
Jie Ling, unable to hide her disappointnt, said, "Teacher Si Yan, after I received my food, I placed it on that rock. But when I turned around, all the food was gone. They were right beside it at that ti."
Jie Ling pointed at Dongchi and the others.
Dongchi’s face was grim, yet he looked up at Si Yan without a trace of guilt.
Bei Ji said angrily, "You’re talking nonsense! The food in our hands is what we hunted ourselves! We just finished preparing it to take back to Big Brother!"
Jie Ling retorted, "You’re lying! You’re so small, how could you possibly hunt?!"
"Exactly! How could such little cubs hunt? That’s quite a tall tale."
"Little Jie Ling is right. They’re obviously lying."
Bei Ji said furiously, "We hunted using the thod Big Brother taught us! Of course, we can hunt! Besides, we all have Beast Crystals!"
Si Yan stopped Bei Ji.
They wanted to prove they could work, to help their mother, and give her sothing tasty to eat. They were originally excited about earning their mother’s praise. But now, they were stopped, doubted, questioned, and denied.
Bei Ji raised his little face to Si Yan, his expression full of grievance. "Mom... Big Brother..."
This poor, aggrieved little Bei Ji was so pitiable and adorable! However, she would definitely settle the score with whoever had made her little Bei Ji so upset.
Si Yan turned, looked at Jie Ling, and also spotted Hu Que not far away.
Si Yan smiled and said to Jie Ling, "You say my cubs stole your at. Do you have any evidence?"
Facing Si Yan, Jie Ling sohow felt intimidated and shrank back. "Isn’t them holding the at right here evidence enough? They’re so small; it’s impossible for them to hunt."
"Why is it impossible?" Si Yan asked with a smile.
Jie Ling replied, "Isn’t that obvious?"
Bei Ji tugged at Si Yan’s sleeve and whispered angrily, "Big Brother, we don’t want to tell them how we hunt! I’m not going to teach them for free!"
Si Yan turned and patted little Bei Ji’s head. The three little ones didn’t want to tell everyone about their thod of setting traps. That’s why they couldn’t explain it clearly. But that wasn’t an issue.
Si Yan looked Jie Ling up and down. "New beast skin dress, huh?"
Teacher Si Yan actually noticed she had changed into a new beast skin dress! Jie Ling blushed suddenly, her hands fidgeting with her dress.
"How co the leather of this beast skin dress looks so familiar?" Si Yan mused, then said, "Oh! Isn’t this the hide Bai Feng gave ?"
Jie Ling was startled. "No, this was a gift from Brother Hu Que."
Si Yan circled her. "This hide is red, I rember, and the leather from the head area was a bit stiff. See? It’s exactly the sa."
Si Yan gazed at her as if looking at a thief and declared decisively, "Jie Ling, you stole my hide. The beast skin dress you’re wearing is the evidence."
