When Beauty Meets Beasts

Chapter 21: They’re Finally Back!

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Shuang Yun was gone for a full three days.

Lin Huanhuan was restless every day. Whenever she was free, she would run to the cave’s entrance and wait for them to return.

Lang Zhu had tried to persuade her several times but would fail each time. In the end, he had no choice but to wait with her at the cave’s entrance.

Lin Huanhuan slowly curled up under the animal hide, her eyes staring blankly at the vast snow in front of her.

‘They’ll be back, won’t they?’

Lang Zhu’s heart ached at the sight of her frozen face. “They’ll be back for sure, because you’re still at home waiting for them. They can’t bear to leave you behind.”

When Lin Huanhuan heard this, she felt a lump in her throat and wanted to cry.

“It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t given them wine, Bai Di wouldn’t have lost control of his emotions and his and Shuang Yun’s lives wouldn’t be at risk. It’s all my fault!”

Lang Zhu patted her shoulder and comforted her. “Don’t blame yourself too much. You didn’t do anything wrong. They left the rock mountain knowing it’s dangerous because they want to protect you.”

“I’m not worthy of their kindness!” Lin Huanhuan finally couldn’t help but cover her face and cry. “Shuang Yun is right. I’m stupid and useless. I can’t do anything. They shouldn’t be risking their lives for me!”

It was so cold that when her tears came streaming down, they were quickly frozen.

Her face quickly frosted over.

Lang Zhu hurriedly pulled her into the cave and helped her remove the ice on her face. He said helplessly, “Shuang Yun is just bad with his words, but his heart is not bad. Don’t take those words he said in the past to heart.”

Lin Huanhuan sobbed softly. “He was telling the truth. I don’t blame him.”

“What truth? He doesn’t mean what he says. He says he hates you, but he really wants to be your mate.”

Lin Huanhuan was very surprised. “That’s impossible, right? How could he want to be my mate? Doesn’t he hate females?”

“There’s actually a reason why Shuang Yun hates females. Since I have nothing to do now, I’ll tell you the story.”

Lang Zhu stroked his big white beard and said slowly, “When Shuang Yun was very young, his father was killed by his mate.”

Lin Huanhuan was stunned. “Isn’t his father’s mate his mother?”

“That’s right. Shuang Yun’s mother was once the best-looking female in the wolf race and there were a lot of male suitors surrounding her. Shuang Yun’s father was very good to her. Knowing that she liked to eat Fire Dragon Bird’s eggs, he took the risk to find eggs for her. Unfortunately, he was bitten by an adult Fire Dragon Bird. Later, that female despised Shuang Yun’s father for being too useless and abandoned him mercilessly. Shuang Yun’s father was so traumatized that he didn’t survive it and died.”

Lin Huanhuan was puzzled. “Even if he was abandoned by a female, Shuang Yun’s father wouldn’t have given up hope of surviving because of this, right? Didn’t he still have Shuang Yun? He had to hold on for his son!”

Lang Zhu looked at her strangely. “Don’t you know? Every male beast can only have one female mate in his lifetime. If he’s abandoned by the female, the male will suffer the backlash of the mate contract. That extreme pain is unimaginable to ordinary people.”

Lin Huanhuan was not a native of this world and did not know much about this world.

She had originally thought that mating was similar to marriage. The two beasts would be together for the rest of their lives. If they didn’t want to be together anymore, they would split up.

Anyway, divorce was no longer a rarity in modern society.

But divorce did not seem to exist in this world.

If a male beast was abandoned, it would be no different from dying.

The consequences were too high.

Lin Huanhuan couldn’t help but feel sad. “Male beasts are too pitiful.”

Lang Zhu sighed. “There’s no helping it. There are too few females.”

He paused and reminded her seriously. “If you mate in the future, don’t abandon the male beasts.”

Lin Huanhuan nodded. “I definitely won’t.”

Lang Zhu continued. “Like his father, Shuang Yun is a Silvery Frost White Wolf. You must have seen Shuang Yun in his true form, right? Isn’t he beautiful?”

Lin Huanhuan nodded slowly. “Yes, he’s very beautiful!”

“After Shuang Yun’s father died, his corpse turned back into a Silvery Frost White Wolf. The female who abandoned him took a fancy to his fur and wanted someone to peel it off him. It made Shuang Yun go crazy with anger. Shuang Yun guarded his father’s corpse and if anyone dared approach, he would bite them. This continued until the corpse started stinking. Only then did that female have no choice but to give up on getting her hands on the Silvery Frost White Wolf’s fur.”

At this point, Lang Zhu couldn’t help but let out a long sigh. “He was still a child at the time, but he had to watch his father’s body rot in front of him bit by bit. His temperament suffered a huge blow, which was why he became especially hateful of females.”

Shuang Yun’s father had tried his best to take care of his female, but he was ultimately abandoned. He could not even live in peace after his death and was almost skinned by the female.

The cruelty and ruthlessness of females were branded into Shuang Yun’s heart, making him abhor all females.

Lin Huanhuan sympathized with Shuang Yun.

Anyone who encountered such a thing would go crazy.

She told herself silently that she had to be polite to him when she saw him in the future. She had to stop bickering with him.

Thinking of this, Lin Huanhuan couldn’t help but look out of the cave again.

Why weren’t Shuang Yun and Bai Di back yet?

At that moment, Mu Xiang ran over in a panic. “Huanhuan, this is bad. Someone is stealing from your house!”

What?! Lin Huanhuan’s expression changed, and she immediately ran back.

Lang Zhu said to Mu Xiang, “Go and get all the males in your family, as well as the other young males in the tribe. Get as many as you can. Send them to Huanhuan’s house to help!”

She answered, “Ok!”

Then, she hurried off to call for help.

Lang Zhu was about to chase after Lin Huanhuan when he suddenly realized that the rope hanging from the rock wall had moved.

His eyes lit up, and he immediately rushed out of the cave to look down. Indeed, he saw two figures slowly climbing up!

They were finally back!

…

When Lin Huanhuan reached the house, she was just in time to see a few males moving things out. The furniture she had made had been removed, and the tanned hide was piled on the ground.

Furious, she rushed forward and grabbed one of the males. “What are you doing? This is my home. Put it down!”

The male blushed when he saw that she was a female, and a beautiful one at that. “We came to borrow something from you.”

“What do you mean? Did you ask for my permission? You’re stealing without asking! You’re stealing!”

“I asked them to borrow something,” Li Wei said as she walked over with her big breasts sticking out. “Since your males are gone and you’re not going to finish all this alone, you might as well share some with us.”

When Lin Huanhuan saw that it was her, she immediately frowned and said angrily, “If you want food, go hunting yourself. Don’t even think about taking a single piece of meat from my house!”
