Chapter 124 – Yuan, Jue, wolf demon (1)

And also… Why did she have this animal skin? Who gave this to her? Was it gray wolf Tianluo?

The rain had washed away the faint smell of Little Yu on the animal skin and the smell of blood and Ruan Qiuqiu’s scent also overpowered other scents, so Yuan Jue couldn’t smell who had given her the animal skin. Out of jealousy and pettiness, he was unhappy.

He gradually couldn’t keep up the use of his demon consciousness and his “sight” became blurry. Pain came from his disabled leg and his damaged meridians. The physical pain along with jealousy turned Yuan Jue’s expression grim.

Ruan Qiuqiu lightly coughed. She thought it was because he didn’t like to wear skirts, so she skipped the topic. Scratching her cheek, she said, “Um… I have to change my clothes too. It won’t take long.”

Her voice was soft and was obviously shy, but the obtuse wolf didn’t notice it. She went back into the bedroom. Although Ruan Qiuqiu wasn’t the coy type, she still couldn’t do something like change clothes in front of Mr. Gray Wolf.

As her forehead grew hotter, she thought about how the wolf outside was probably in a worse condition than her. Ruan Qiuqiu felt that their situation was quite terrible.

She made the best use of her time while waiting for him by drying off and changing into clean clothing, then she walked over to the tattered animal skin curtain and stopped behind it. She was cautious with her tone because she didn’t want to hurt his self-esteem. “Husband, are you done?”

The wolf that had changed into a half-naked human: “…”

He pursed his lips. His complexion was deathly pale. He had lost the assistance of his demon consciousness, and the world in front of him was pitch-black. Fortunately, he had already fumbled his way into touching the animal skin clothing she had prepared for him. His large hand grasped the clothing, and he put it on by feeling it out.

He didn’t know if it was his imagination, but the clothes that his wife had prepared for him seemed extra… furry? It didn’t feel very comfortable against his skin.

Ruan Qiuqiu waited for about ten seconds. Not getting a response, she was very worried and called out again, “… Husband?”

Yuan Jue had a pitiful amount of experience when it came to communicating with humans. This was his first time liking someone too. He didn’t know how to respond and ended up stiffly saying, “En.”

Ruan Qiuqiu finally heard his hoarse voice and relaxed a bit. Thank god that he didn’t faint.

She pushed aside the animal skin curtain and walked out. Dizzy and with blurred vision, she saw him supporting himself in a standing position with the wall and a wooden stick. His long hair was wet and he was wearing the animal skin clothing inside out. He obviously looked very uncomfortable.

Ruan Qiuqiu coughed. Ah, no, have to hold back, don’t laugh.

Mr. Gray Wolf was already so miserable. He was such a good person. She definitely couldn’t let him find out that he was wearing clothes inside out.

She took a deep breath and softened her expression. Looking at how he was deliberately lowering his face, which looked worse than before with more injuries, to hide it, she tentatively took a step forward. She wanted to graph his sleeve. “… I’ll help you walk in?”

Yuan Jue felt the dirty rainwater dripping down from his hair. He lowered his eyelashes, which were dripping with water too, to hide the inferiority and gloomy he was feeling. Not knowing what to do or say, his eyes and brows carried stiff coldness. “No need.”

As soon as he said that, he started to regret it. He was worried that he was too fierce. He gripped the firewood that he had grabbed to use as a walking stick so hard that his joints paled.

Ruan Qiuqiu’s outstretched hand hesitated in the air before she slowly dropped it.

She saw his brow furrowing in grievance. She could see that the amount of black lines on his cheeks had increased. It was probably a residual effect from when he dealt with Lu Ziran.

Ruan Qiuqiu’s heart softened. She did her best to make her voice sound as if she was smiling. “Okay.”

Ruan Qiuqiu picked up the pure white sheepskin that Mr. Gray Wolf hadn’t touched. Standing less than half a meter from, she started speaking as if there was nothing unusual with their situation.

“Um… Husband, we can drink fish soup tonight. I got it from the kid that I met last time when I went out hunting. His younger sister gave me this white bighorn sheepskin…”

— Oh. So it wasn’t a gift from gray wolf Tianluo.

“Ah, there’s a stone here. I’m almost tripped.”

— He knows.

“Did you hunt the bison in the storage room? I gave Little Yu and his family a piece of it in return for the soup. That… That should be okay, right?”

— It’s all yours.
