Pampered in the Beast World: The Frail Beauty Has Many Children and Much Fortune – Chapter 10

Ch 10: I Would Feel That You Are Thinking of Me

Not only were there fruits, but Si Shuo also saw many herbs: styptic and anti-inflammatory, heat-clearing and detoxifying, cough-suppressing, anti-diarrheal, analgesic, and blood-activating, etc.

She wasn’t picky, picking fruits and herbs whenever she saw them. Two-thirds of the fruits went into the pocket dimension, and one-third was temporarily placed in the wicker basket in the pocket dimension. As for the herbs, she only put a few well-known and common ones outside.

The windbreaker was airtight, and she was also wearing beast hide inside.

After working intermittently for two hours, the wicker basket was more than half full. Si Shuo was hot and tired, so she simply opened up a small space for herself, took off her windbreaker, drank warm meat broth, and rested.

Si Shuo loved the feeling of working up a sweat. This feeling of vitality was something she couldn’t ask for in her previous life.

Seeing that it was still early, she thought about it and took out the Ability Awakening Pill, which was similar to Maltesers, and threw it into her mouth. The pill melted in her mouth, and a gentle force surged along her esophagus to all parts of her body.

Before long, Si Shuo felt even hotter and more tired. In a daze, she nestled on the beast hide and fell asleep.

The sound of a horn faintly came over, and she suddenly woke up. A stench filled her nostrils, almost making her throw up.

Si Shuo patted her forehead. There was no time to take care of herself, so she had to bite the bullet and quickly tidy up. Without even putting on the protective suit, she walked back while dragging back some of the cut thorny vines.

When she was about to reach the exit, she took the wicker basket out of the pocket dimension and put it on her back.

Si Shuo was afraid of missing the team returning to the tribe, so she jogged all the way.

In the wicker basket behind her, there were at least thirty pounds of wild fruits and herbs, but she didn’t feel heavy at all. She could even say that she felt as light as a swallow!

Had her ability awakened successfully?

Sure enough, in her sea of consciousness, she saw an unread message from the system.

System: Congratulations, Host, on awakening the main healing Wood Affinity. Level 1 skill, Spring Breeze, has a certain effect on stopping bleeding and accelerating the healing of injuries and illnesses. Proficiency 0/100; Auxiliary skill: Level 1 Germination Art, proficiency 0/100.

Si Shuo couldn’t help but clench her fists excitedly and stomp her feet in place. With an ability, she had another guarantee in the Beast World Continent!

If she cultivated her ability to a high level, she could also help those she cared about, instead of helplessly watching them suffer severe injuries and not receive effective treatment, becoming disabled or even dying in front of her.

No one felt the feeling of waiting for death more deeply than she did…

“Si Shuo, where are you?” Yi Mei’s voice came from not far away.

Si Shuo hurried to the place where the two had separated.

Seeing her come out of the shrubbery, Yi Mei breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ran over, waving her hand. “It’s my fault. I forgot that you can’t hear. It was the first time gathering, and I should have been with you.”

Si Shuo smiled and shook her head. “I’ve gathered in the tribe before. I just didn’t manage my time well in the new place. I’ll pay attention next time!”

After getting closer, Yi Mei smelled the scent on her and couldn’t help but cover her nose. “Si Shuo, where did you go? You didn’t provoke the Stink Bugs while gathering, did you?”

Si Shuo wrinkled her small face, nodded vigorously with a blush, and lied, “I found a place with fruits, but I ended up poking the Stink Bugs’ home!”

Her body had expelled foul dirt due to the awakening of her ability. Such a strong smell definitely wasn’t the power of just one bug.

Yi Mei said sympathetically, “Then you have to be careful next time. Let’s go back to the tribe first. You can take a bath when you get home.”

Si Shuo was afraid that the smell on her body would rub off on others, so she put a piece of beast hide on the Gold Leopard when she climbed on.

After returning to the tribe, Si Shuo gave half of the fruits first and hurried home to take a bath.

The hunting team returned with the setting sun. Zhi Le was running in the front, carrying the prey. When he reached the entrance of the tribe, among the welcoming beastmen, he didn’t see his little female.

He transformed into his humanoid form, turned his head with a cold expression, told his two friends something, and strode towards home.

◈◈◈

After seeing him, Yi Mei smiled and called out to him, “Zhi Le, our gathering team just came back. Don’t worry, Si Shuo is fine. It’s just that she had bad luck and ran into a nest of Stink Bugs, and she’s taking a bath at home right now.”

Zhi Le breathed a slight sigh of relief, nodded to her in thanks, and still ran back home worriedly.

When he jumped onto the platform, he looked amusedly at his little female squatting on the ground, boiling water. Two streaks of gray were smeared on her fair face, and a faint fishy stench did float in the air.

He coughed softly, suppressing the corners of his upturned mouth. “Kitten, I’ve been running around outside all day, and my body is covered in blood and dust. Will you accompany me to take a bath?”

Si Shuo looked up at the young man at the door and realized that she hadn’t seen him all day, but she couldn’t suppress her longing at this moment.

Mainly, she was too busy to think about it before!

“I, I gathered a lot of wild fruits today, and some herbs, but my body is covered in a bit of a smell. I’m afraid I’ll stink you. I didn’t deliberately not go to pick you up!” She stood up and explained earnestly.

Zhi Le’s eyebrows and eyes were full of tenderness. “I know. I’m very happy to see you when I get home. You don’t have to go to the entrance to pick me up. The smell of blood is too strong.”

Let’s go, let’s take a bath, and we’ll have just enough time to divide the meat and eat!

Today, we hunted a nest of tusked boars, killed three adults, and tied back seven piglets. I’ll take you to see them later.”

Si Shuo nodded and extinguished the fire, took a set of clean clothes, and wanted to climb the stone steps herself.

Zhi Le stepped forward and picked her up in his arms, laughing, “I like the kitten no matter what. We’ve both been working outside all day, and no one dislikes anyone. We’ll take a bath together later!”

Si Shuo closed her eyes with a red face. Whatever, anyway, she was used to her own smell and couldn’t smell the stink anymore.

Zhi Le still took her to the stream where they had been yesterday.

Si Shuo remembered that she had gotten a twenty-meter-long shrimp cage when she opened the survival pack this morning.

She looked at Zhi Le and pursed her lips, stroking the beast mark on her wrist.

“Kitten, don’t touch it. I can’t stand it,” Zhi Le rubbed his head, his voice dyed with a hint of hoarseness, and his gray-blue eyes were tinged with scarlet. “The beast mark is the connection between the two of us. When you stroke the beast mark, it’s like you’re blowing in my ear. If you blow once or twice, I know you’re thinking of me, but if you keep touching it, especially when I’m in front of you, I would feel that you are thinking of me.”

Si Shuo immediately understood what he meant by “thinking”. She quickly put her hand behind her back. “I was just curious. I didn’t mean anything else!”

Zhi Le raised his eyebrows. “Oh? Besides thinking of me, what other meaning is there? We have to communicate well. It’s my responsibility to serve my own female and know what you need.”

Si Shuo had thin skin, but he just liked to tease her, really treating her like a little kitten.

She simply took out the shrimp cage. The creatures in the Beast World Continent were relatively large, and the shrimp cage given by the system was made of metal wire mesh.

“This suddenly appeared in the pocket dimension. It said to put some bait inside, put it in the water for a while, and it can attract fish, shrimp, and crabs in the water to crawl inside.

I want to eat big shrimp!”

Originally, she preferred river and seafood, but now that she was a cat beastman, her mouth watered whenever she thought of these…
