Chapter 338: How to Get Along with Beast Husbands?

Chapter 338: Chapter 338: How to Get Along with Beast Husbands?

And so, the four of them came to an agreement.

Meanwhile, Shi Lan had already rushed back to the medical station. It was rare to see her return during the lunch break without Admiral He, so the doctor on duty asked out of curiosity, "Doctor Shi, you didn’t go to see your Beast Husband?"

Coincidentally, the doctor on duty was Doctor Wang—the very same one who had been a huge fan of her and the Admiral’s romance last time.

Shi Lan sighed wistfully and looked at her. "Doctor Wang, how many Beast Husbands do you have?"

As someone with plenty of experience, Doctor Wang heard the question and knew right away that the young woman wanted to talk. She immediately pulled up a chair for Shi Lan, playing the part of a caring confidante. "Oh, Doctor Shi, I’m in my forties. At my age, having six or seven Beast Husbands is perfectly normal. I have exactly six—no more, no less."

"Six of them..."

Shi Lan mused, "Doctor Wang, how do you normally handle things with your six Beast Husbands? As you know, I have four of my Beast Husbands here in the military, and when we’re all together, I just don’t know what to do."

Doctor Wang waved her hand dismissively. "You’re still too conscientious, child. What else is there to do? Just act normally. If they want to be clingy, let them. You just focus on your own business and pay them no mind."

"Honestly, having a few more Beast Husbands isn’t a problem. As long as they’re not all in your bed at the same time, they won’t dare fight in front of you. As for what they do behind your back... well, as long as it’s just minor squabbles, you don’t need to get involved."

Male Beastmen have a strong sense of territory, so sharing a bed is an absolute no-go under any circumstances. Of course, some are more experimental, but the vast majority of Beastmen can’t accept it.

In day-to-day life, a female doesn’t really need to manage her Beast Husbands.

"Just be affectionate with whichever Beast Husband you feel like being with at the time. You don’t have to worry too much about the others. Since they chose you, they should have known this was part of the deal."

Doctor Wang was voicing what pretty much every female in this world felt. This was indeed how they all managed their relationships. Even with several Beast Husbands present, they would still choose to be intimate with whomever they fancied at that moment, depending on their mood.

Of course, more tactful females would try to avoid doing this to minimize conflict within the family.

But Shi Lan just couldn’t bring herself to do that. She liked them all, and she didn’t want to see any of them get hurt in front of her. It would make her feel terribly guilty.

"Actually, if you find it really that difficult, just set up a rotation. Lay out the rules clearly ahead of time, then designate a ’family day’ to build your bond as a family. That way, no one will feel too distant. After all, you’re all going to be living together for hundreds of years. You’re family."

Shi Lan listened intently. ’That sounds like the best approach for me,’ she thought. During her first few nights as a married woman, she had taken turns spending time with each of them, and everything had been harmonious and relaxed.

She nodded gratefully. "Thank you, Doctor Wang. That helps a lot."

"It’s nothing, really. This is all very normal for a new family. Most people marry one or two Beast Husbands at a time, taking it slow. You married five at once, so it’s only natural you lack experience. Over time, you’ll figure out a dynamic that works for your family."

Doctor Wang was inevitably bored during her shift, as everyone else had gone for their lunch break. Even watching TV felt a little dull, so she was happy that Shi Lan had come to chat.

Besides, Shi Lan had helped her and the other staff out a lot on a daily basis, so she was glad to be able to return the favor.

Shi Lan wasn’t actually sleepy. She glanced at the holographic device Doctor Wang had on nearby and asked, "Were you just watching a show?"

Doctor Wang nodded. "Yeah, I’ve been hooked on *Investigating Grass* recently."

"Ahem..."

Doctor Wang’s face flushed as she spoke. Don’t let the prim-and-proper title fool you—the content was anything but. The female lead was a "grass-picker," and the "grass" in question... was men. Any man who got a taste of her feminine wiles was left utterly captivated, thinking of her day and night, ready to worship the ground she walked on...

In short, it was the perfect show to kill time with.

Shi Lan had never seen the show, so she asked a few more curious questions. Doctor Wang then leaned in and quietly summarized the plot for her.

Shi Lan’s face turned red, too. "I’ll have to check it out when I get back," she declared.

’There’s a show like that? And it’s actually allowed on the air?’

’I have to see this masterpiece for myself.’

Hearing this, Doctor Wang knew she’d found a kindred spirit. "Trust me," she said instantly, "it’s absolutely amazing."

"Mm-hmm."

They chatted for a little while longer before Shi Lan, unable to contain her curiosity any longer, said her goodbyes and rushed back to watch the show. Doctor Wang gave her a thoughtful, knowing smile. "Just make sure your Beast Husbands don’t catch you."

This only made Shi Lan even more curious.

The moment she got back to her bedroom, she activated her chip, searched for the show, and started playing it.

The very first episode started with a bang. The female lead used her Invisibility Talent Skill to slip into the home of a certain male—the only son of the planet’s wealthiest man, a shut-in who never left his house.

Once inside, the lead character found the man undressing, preparing to take a bath.

Shi Lan found herself a little afraid to watch. ’Surely the show can’t be *that* explicit, right?’ she thought. Thankfully, it only showed him from the waist up.

The male seemed to be in poor health. He was quite thin and frail, his skin pale as paper, but he had well-defined V-lines along his abdomen, giving him a kind of fragile beauty.

’Putting the face aside, that body is definitely nice.’

’But if I’m being honest,’ Shi Lan thought, ’I still prefer Jiang Xia. He’s the same type, but with a little more muscle.’

As she watched, she found herself missing the bodies of her own Beast Husbands. Unfortunately, she was in the early stages of her pregnancy, so she couldn’t get frisky.

On the screen, the man stepped into the bathtub. The bathroom door creaked open slightly, but he just assumed he hadn’t closed it properly and paid it no mind. He got up, dripping wet, and shut it again. Water droplets trickled down his pale, slender frame, all while the invisible female lead stood in a corner, brazenly admiring his body...

In the middle of his bath, the man suddenly caught a faint, sweet scent. Drowsiness washed over him, and his eyes fluttered peacefully shut. Seeing her chance, the female lead pounced.

Honestly, the plot had zero moral compass, but it wasn’t overly explicit either. It just showed certain body parts on screen, with occasional shots of fingers touching and atmospheric scenes that, all together, created a very ambiguous, tension-filled mood.

Even with the veiled intimacy, Shi Lan’s face was flushed and her heart was pounding.

And so, the person who’d told He Hanshi and the others she was going back to take a nap ended up watching the show for the entire lunch break...

When it was time to go back to work, Shi Lan was still craving more. She checked the episode count—a whopping 82 episodes, and it was still ongoing. Going by the one-man-per-episode format, that meant the female lead of *Investigating Grass* had already been with 82 different men.

’What a legend!’

’She could barely handle He Hanshi and her other four.’

But the thought of having so much more to watch in the coming days made her excited all over again.

With a feeling of pious gratitude, Shi Lan turned off her chip, washed her face, and psyched herself up to go back to work.

’Hehe, I’ll watch more tonight.’
