Chapter 144 - 145: Cub Commotion (2)

Chapter 144: Chapter 145: Cub Commotion (2)

She already thought she was ugly enough. If she lost her impressive chest, she couldn’t even imagine how hideous she’d become.

’Probably not, right? One person can’t possibly breastfeed that many cubs!’

No matter how she looked at it, it just didn’t seem like a normal way to feed them.

It couldn’t be like when Luan Ting’s Mother gave birth to him, and she was nursing all his brothers and sisters at the same time!

As Su Luoluo’s mind was racing with wild thoughts, the female suddenly spoke again. "But, Luoluo, you could go see the Witch Doctor."

’The Witch Doctor?’

Su Luoluo had only caught a brief glimpse of him during the day. He was wrapped in a white Beast Skin Skirt, making it impossible to tell what kind of person he was.

But the Witch Doctor seemed to be highly respected by the people of the Beast World, like someone who could cure any ailment.

She remembered Su Yang had mentioned him, saying she could go see him when she had time.

However, she probably didn’t need to go to all that trouble.

’I can just ask the system. That damn thing hasn’t shown up in days, and it hasn’t even given me any rewards. I really need to have a talk with it.’

With that in mind, Su Luoluo decided she would thoroughly interrogate the system when she got back that night.

The bonfire party was a lively affair. The entire tribe gathered, singing and dancing together. A yellow flame blazed in the center, illuminating the radiant smiles on every Beastman’s face.

For a moment, Su Luoluo was in a daze. She was so used to being alone in the Post-apocalypse that she had forgotten how long it had been since she’d seen such a peaceful scene.

At one point, someone invited Su Luoluo to dance. But before she could refuse, Mo Xuan crossed his arms and glared at the hopeful Beastman. "She’s my female. If you want to dance, go find your own."

’Are you kidding me? Su Luoluo isn’t alone right now. What if one of these clumsy dancers accidentally hurts my cub?’

Mo Xuan was quite intimidating to the other Beastmen in the tribe.

First, he was tall. Second, he had a Fifth Rank Beastification. Those two points alone were enough to overwhelm the one who had invited Su Luoluo to dance.

After seeing how fierce Mo Xuan was, no one else dared to ask.

Su Luoluo couldn’t dance anyway. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have chosen to play a leaf flute during the Moon God Festival.

Although Mo Xuan’s actions were a bit macho, she actually found it kind of cute.

Mo Xuan looked rough around the edges, but sometimes he was actually quite considerate of her.

He wasn’t as sensitive as Luan Ting, but his affection for her was genuine.

With Mo Xuan running interference, no one else dared to approach Su Luoluo. And since no one wanted to mess with her other Beastmen either, everyone just went back to their own dancing.

Seeing that it was getting late, Su Luoluo yawned and left the bonfire, heading back to her small wooden cabin.

The six men had long been fixated on the cub in Su Luoluo’s belly, desperate to know which one of them was the father.

The moment they saw Su Luoluo leave, they immediately followed.

Su Luoluo had barely reached her cabin when they arrived right behind her.

So much so that as Su Luoluo went to close her door, she found six pairs of different-colored eyes staring straight at her.

The scene was eerily reminiscent of zombies from the Post-apocalypse about to break down a door.

Su Luoluo yawned and glanced at the six men. "Is there something I can help you with?"

’What perfect attendance.’

Other than eating at the Wild Kitchen, Su Luoluo had never seen them all gathered so neatly in one place.

At her question, the men all fell silent.

After a long moment, Xiao Ye leaned against the doorframe and looked at Su Luoluo. "Don’t you have anything you want to tell us?"

’Something to tell them?’

Su Luoluo thought back carefully. She didn’t have any chores for them to do recently.

She shook her head. "No."

Hearing this, Xiao Ye frowned at her. "Think again."

’I don’t have anything for them to do... do I? Wait, on second thought, there is one thing.’

Realizing this, Su Luoluo nodded. "Actually, there is one thing I need to tell you."

’This is it,’ they thought. ’Su Luoluo is finally going to announce that she’s carrying one of our cubs.’

Hearing Su Luoluo say this, the Beastmen all perked up their ears.

Especially Mo Xuan. His ears were already prominent, and his focused expression made him even more conspicuous.

Seeing how eager he was, Su Luoluo chuckled. "Why are you so enthusiastic?"

’Has this guy actually gotten addicted to doing chores?’

Mo Xuan sniffed. ’How could I not be enthusiastic about this?’

’That’s my child in there.’

’My flesh and blood.’

"Just say it. I’m ready."

Su Luoluo paused. ’He’s even prepared for this?’

’He’s acting like he’s about to be served something new and delicious.’

Seeing him so eager, Su Luoluo nodded and said, "Since you like it so much, you can take the lead tomorrow!"

"Take... take the lead? Take the lead on what?"

This wasn’t what he’d been expecting to hear. Mo Xuan was momentarily confused.

"Grinding wheat, of course!" The flour was almost gone, so naturally, they needed to start grinding more wheat.

"What!"

"Grinding wheat!"

Upon hearing this, several of them couldn’t help but cry out.

"I ask you to grind some flour and you all have such a huge reaction. What, you don’t want to do it?"

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to do it, it was just that what she said was a little different from what they were expecting.

Luan Ting pursed his lips and said gently, "That’s not what we meant. Besides grinding wheat, is there anything else you wanted to tell us?"

"Anything else?" Su Luoluo shook her head. "If I needed you for something, I would’ve told you."

Mo Xuan, listening impatiently from the side, cut in. "What’s the point of beating around the bush? Su Luoluo, I’m asking you, are you pregnant with a cub or not?"

When she heard this, Su Luoluo finally understood.

’So that’s what this is about.’

No wonder they had all shown up at her door so neatly. They must have overheard her conversation with the other female at the bonfire.

Her eyes narrowed as she scanned the six of them. "You all came here this late at night just to ask me this?"

Hearing this, the men fell silent again.

"So, Luoluo, whose cub is in your belly? It’s such a shame I didn’t get to participate in that ’action’."

"Luoluo, let’s hurry up and form a totem bond. That way, you can have a little cub for me too. I’m so handsome, our cub would definitely be beautiful."

Xi Yi said this with a grin, blinking his eyes and breaking the silent atmosphere.

Su Luoluo: "..."

’It’s this Lizard again,’ Su Luoluo thought. ’Sometimes he’s really asking for a punch.’

As soon as Xi Yi’s words were out, everyone’s gaze snapped to Su Luoluo.

They all seemed to be waiting for something.

Su Luoluo looked at their expectant gazes and scoffed. "Who told you I was pregnant? I just ate something too rich and felt a little nauseous, that’s all."

’I don’t even know if I’m pregnant myself, and they’re more anxious about it than I am.’

With that, Su Luoluo shut the door, yawning as she did. "I’m tired. I’m not talking to you guys anymore."

The men stared at the closed wooden door, completely stunned.

"No way! Could we really have been wrong? Is Su Luoluo really not pregnant with a cub?" Mo Xuan said in disbelief, staring at the closed door.

Hearing this, Fu Feng shrugged. "Who knows? Su Luoluo said no."

This meant he still had a chance. While Fu Feng said this out loud, inwardly, he was secretly pleased.
