Chapter 97: Taking Turns to Gift Her

Tang Guo didn’t notice, but Bai Ye knew immediately.

He let go of Tang Guo and dressed her in all her clothes. He wrapped her tightly in tiger skin to ensure that no one outside would see anything. Then he went to open the door.

Standing outside the door was Hei Ze.

Another pile of prey was carried over his shoulder. When he saw that it was Bai Ye guarding the door, his wolf eyes flashed with disdain. Then he looked behind him.

“Where’s the little Female Tang Guo?”

!!

Bai Ye’s tiger eyes narrowed in displeasure. He reached out and closed the door behind him, blocking his view. “What are you doing here?” he asked unhappily.

Hei Ze shrugged. “I’m here to give thanks to the little Female Tang Guo for saving our Black Wolf Tribe!”

Bai Ye laughed angrily. “You only thank her?”

What was his motive?

Many of the warriors from the Back Cliff Tribe were clearly brought over by him! In the end, this shameless black wolf was only thinking about Tang Guo?

Did he fancy Tang Guo?

Hei Ze nodded. “Aren’t you her mate?”

Bai Ye nodded. “Of course.”

“Then all the more reason for me to thank her. You’ll have to give her these thank-you gifts in the end. Are you going to give them to another female behind her back?”

Hei Ze spoke meaningfully, but it made sense, and Bai Ye was speechless.

Bai Ye exhaled and said calmly, “I’m the leader of the tribe. I brought the tribe to help you, so I’ll accept this thank-you gift on behalf of the tribe. Of course, Tang Guo contributed the most to the shooting of the man-eating eagle king. I’ll leave her the most generous portion.”

“It’s dark now, leader of the Black Wolf Tribe. You can leave now.”

“Besides, you’re the leader of the Black Wolf Tribe. You haven’t forgotten the rules of your race, have you?”

The people of the Black Wolf Clan had never intermarried with outsiders for generations.

Hei Ze trembled and his expression immediately darkened. The two of them faced each other with fierce eyes.

He did not expect his secret thoughts to be seen through by him!

Tang Guo felt that Bai Ye had been out for a long time. Why hadn’t he come in yet? So she called out to him, “Is something wrong outside?”

Bai Ye replied in an extremely gentle voice, “It’s nothing. It’s just a thank-you gift from the Black Wolf Tribe.”

However, his gaze on Hei Ze was cold and intimidating. He did not retreat at all.

Tang Guo said, “Oh, they’re quite polite. Then go deal with it quickly and come back early.”

She was so sleepy. She yawned as she spoke.

Hei Ze’s eyes darkened as he listened to her voice.

“You can leave now,” Bai Ye said, shooing him away.

Hei Ze was a little regretful that he did not see her, but he knew that there was no reason to stay.

He was annoyed. If he hadn’t been held back by Bai Yun on the way here, he would have come!

If he had come early, he would have been able to make his presence known to Tang Guo!

But as soon as Hei Ze left, Jiu Chen came again. Bai Ye’s face was dark and his tone was unfriendly. “What are you doing here again?”

Jiu Chen looked at him and put down his prey. “Thanks to the bow and arrows invented by Tang Guo today, I caught a lot of prey. I can’t eat it alone. Give it to her.”

Bai Ye choked on his breath. “No need. Take it away.”

Tang Guo was his female. He should be the one to fight for her to eat. What did it have to do with him?

He had accepted Granny Witch Doctor’s offer to consider letting Tang Guo choose another male so that it would be easier to take care of her, but that hadn’t been decided yet, had it?

What was the point of him coming to court her now?

Jiu Chen put down his prey. “It’s winter. Tang Guo is a human female and pregnant with a cub. You can eat less, but don’t let her suffer.”

It hit his nerve center.

Bai Ye looked uncomfortable, but he said nothing more.

He plucked out most of the prey Hei Ze had brought and said to him, “These prey are a thank-you gift from the Black Wolf Tribe. Take them to Granny Witch Doctor and let her share them with the clansmen.”

Jiu Chen’s gaze paused on the prey. Then, without a word, he picked it up and left.

When Tang Guo saw so much prey, she grinned happily and said, “We have so much food. It should be enough to eat for the entire winter, right?”

She had a small appetite. The food was indeed enough for her for a winter.

But if Bai Ye was included, it would be completely insufficient.

He thought to himself, Forget it. He’d better go hunting every other day. It would be convenient to hunt now that he had a bow and arrow.

When she woke up the next day, there was indeed a lot more snow outside. The snow could reach her knees with one step.

But it was really cold. Tang Guo only went out to show her face before hiding back.

It was too cold!

Playing with the snow? Hehe, it was more comfortable to hide in the warm bed!

She was perfectly comfortable in the warmth of the house, but some people weren’t so nice.

For example, Ximei, who was not tolerated by the Black Wolf Tribe, had injured Hei Mei because she had snatched the cave and food. She was seriously injured and on the verge of death.
