Healing a Fallen S-Rank Beastman: Everyone Fights Over the Little Female Chapter 233: Apology

Faced with the old chief’s words, Qing and Luan had no choice but to step out from the crowd and co before Lu Xiao.

The two of them had lost their previous arrogance. Now, before Lu Xiao, they had both beco cautious and timid.

Luan even knelt down. "Lu Xiao, I only said those things to you because I listened to Qing’s vicious lies. I know I was wrong now, and I’ll never do it again. I hope you can forgive . As long as you forgive , I’ll do anything you ask."

Qing stood frozen. Under the gazes of the crowd, she clenched her fists and knelt. "I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have spread lies about you. I know I was wrong, and it won’t happen again. Please, forgive ."

Compared to Luan, Qing was clearly still resentful.

Lu Xiao’s gaze swept over her coolly. ’She knew perfectly well that Qing was only apologizing because the old chief must have said sothing, forcing her to bow her head.’

But the truth was, she didn’t care in the slightest whether Qing and Luan truly knew they were wrong.

And these tribespeople were, in fact, watching to see her reaction.

She smiled. "Alright, I forgive you."

Just as expected, the surrounding crowd breathed a sigh of relief. Qing and Luan had lived with them for a long ti, after all. In their eyes, since both had apologized, it would have seed petty if Lu Xiao refused to let it go.

"But I have one condition," Lu Xiao said, looking at the old chief.

The old chief nodded. "Whatever it is, just na it."

Her words made the crowd tense up all over again.

"I hope the two of you stay out of my sight from now on." After she spoke, the old chief nodded. "I will have them watched. I absolutely will not let them appear and be an eyesore to you again."

To the onlookers, Lu Xiao’s request was perfectly reasonable. She chose to forgive them and only made one condition. Most people felt it wasn’t excessive at all.

It’s perfectly reasonable to forgive soone but never want to see them again. Who said forgiveness ans you have to beco friends?

Even they themselves would have a hard ti being friends with soone they had argued with.

Only Qing felt that she had been humiliated.

’I’ll get you back for today’s humiliation!’ she silently vowed.

With that, the incident was basically over. Before leaving, the old chief instructed Shield and Mao to take good care of Lu Xiao, telling them to ask for anything she needed. As long as the tribe could provide it, they would.

Then he led the crowd away.

Once they were gone, Lu Xiao tilted her head and looked to the side. Platinum and C Luo were standing there; she had no idea how long they’d been watching. When he saw Lu Xiao look over, Platinum didn’t shy away, but instead smiled at her.

Lu Xiao looked away, pretending she hadn’t seen him. She turned to et Fred’s worried gaze and said, "Don’t overthink it. It doesn’t matter what the people here think of . We’ll be leaving this place sooner or later anyway."

So there was no need to suck up to the people here, nor was there a need to strain relations. It was best to just let things take their natural course.

Fred naturally understood what Lu Xiao ant, but that didn’t stop his heart from aching for her.

As Lu Xiao was speaking with Fred, she noticed Ares standing in the doorway, leaning against the fra. Her brow furrowed. "Ares, you just promised you would get so rest. Why are you standing up?"

Faced with the young female’s scolding, Ares said, "I got a little tired of lying down. I’m not putting any weight on this leg."

Hearing Ares’s explanation, Lu Xiao walked over and glanced at his leg. "You’d better listen to !"

"I know." Ares took Lu Xiao’s hand. "We’ll leave this place as soon as we can, Xiao Xiao. I won’t let you be treated unfairly for long."

Lu Xiao, who hadn’t thought it was a big deal, felt her nose tingle at his words. She leaned in and wrapped her arms around Ares’s waist. "I wasn’t really bothered, because I don’t care about them at all. I just feel like it’s been a difficult journey for us. But now that you’re getting better, Ares, it doesn’t seem so bad anymore."

Her biggest worry had been that Ares’s injury wouldn’t heal. Now that he could return to his human form and even stand up, a great weight was suddenly lifted from her shoulders.

Only with Ares could she stop being strong all the ti.

Ares held her, listening to her words. He knew very well that Lu Xiao wasn’t saying these things to be comforted, but was simply expressing her innermost feelings.

"Mm, too. As long as I’m with you, Xiao Xiao, it doesn’t matter where we are."

Hearing this, Lu Xiao laughed. "Speaking of which, the two of us are really sothing. Every ti I say I’ll wait for you, an accident happens. This ti, I said I’d wait for your triumphant return and co to greet you personally. I was even planning on bringing flowers to give to you first, but in the end, you ca looking for instead."

"There’ll be other opportunities. You can save the flowers."

"But I still wish there were fewer wars." She didn’t want Ares to always be involved in dangerous situations.

The two of them didn’t lower their voices, making no effort to hide their conversation from Fred, Platinum, or C Luo.

The three n took in the sight of Lu Xiao’s reliance on Ares, and it would be a lie to say they weren’t jealous or envious.

But they also truly realized that the deep connection and sincere affection between Lu Xiao and Ares was not sothing they could just enter into as they pleased.

They also ca to a deeper understanding of what Lu Xiao had ant when she once spoke of "one couple, for one lifeti."

It was to give all of one’s love selflessly and completely to a single person.

With not the slightest bit left over for anyone else.

They had never experienced it, so they had no way of knowing what it felt like.

But they were all certain that no one else could be like Lu Xiao.

Still worried about Ares’s condition, Lu Xiao helped him back to the bed. "Don’t move again, you hear!"

"Alright, I won’t move." Ares didn’t want Lu Xiao to worry, so he was naturally obedient. He had only stood up a mont ago because he was worried she was being bullied.

Seeing him agree, Lu Xiao said with satisfaction, "I’ll ask Admiral Fred to make you a pair of crutches later. But you’ll have to be the one to repay that favor."

Ares nodded. "Okay, I’ll repay it myself."

Knowing Lu Xiao was saying this because she didn’t want to get too entangled with Fred, Ares’s heart lted.

The old chief of the Canghe Tribe was very tactful. After the incident, not only did he personally bring Qing and Luan to apologize, but he also had Shield deliver fresh at, salt, and so foraged vegetables and fruits.

He was clearly doing his best to make ands.

Lu Xiao didn’t stand on ceremony and accepted it all.

That evening, Lu Xiao used the rendered fat to make a hot pot. Although the soup base was simple, there was a certain warmth to the scene as the three of them sat around the table.

It seed that no matter where they were, as long as Lu Xiao was around, life always beca more vibrant.

The young female always had a way of making the days worth looking forward to.

While Lu Xiao and the other two were enjoying their dinner, Platinum went to find Qing, who had returned to her room and was flying into a rage.

Seeing him, Qing first froze, then asked warily, "Who are you?"
