The atmosphere suddenly became very quiet.
"Hu Jin, if you dare change back to your beast form now, you will sleep with the tigers tonight." Chi Yuyang immediately said before Hu Jin can make any moves.
She discovered that as long as Hu Jin encounters a situation where he doesn't know how to express his emotions, he will involuntarily choose to escape.
That is, to change back to his beast form.
And every time he switches forms, he has a little habit of shaking his ears.
Sure enough, Hu Jin's movements to attempt transforming became stiff.
"I..."
Chi Yuyang waited quietly for him to say the complete sentence.
In her original world, her words are equivalent to confession.
Chi Yuyang is not an indecisive person.
Now that she has decided to spend time with Hu Jin, she must first determine their feelings for each other.
So she was waiting for his response.
"I..." Hu Jin couldn't help but stammered. The tail behind him wriggling up and down, right and left, but just couldn't find a suitable location to place it.
This is the first time in Hu Jin's tiger life that someone said the word "like" to him.
And this person is not someone else, but his wife.
After a brief hesitation, he slowly spoke.
"I like you too."
Hu Jin did not deliberately lower his voice.
In the empty cave, Chi Yuyang could even hear the echo of the three words "I like you" lingering in her ears.
"Wife, shall we still sleep together tonight?" Hu Jin said another sentence.
"..." Chi Yuyang, who was originally a little moved, suddenly choked with his words.
Hu Jin also didn't think much about his question but just thought. She is so afraid of cold so how could she not sleep with him?
"Yeah." Chi Yuyang nodded and she sighed silently in her heart.
Letting Hu Jin understand what feelings are is just like her accepting to mate with an orc, it's a long way to go.
Looking at the crackling sparks from the fire in front of her, Chi Yuyang, who was nestling in Hu Jin's arms, couldn't help rubbing her hands.
It may be a racial talent, even if the tiger orcs are in their human form, their body temperature is still high.
Not to mention Hu Jin is already a Tier 4 orc.
"Is the patriarch also a Tier 4 orc?" Chi Yuyang took a bite of the pork that Hu Jin handed over.
Meat without salt or sugar, although not to the point where it tasted like chewing wax, but compared to the previous taste, it is significantly worse.
It's like the boiled chicken breast that she once ate to lose weight.
It's because she forgot about this aspect.
They originally planned to go back to their home on the same day, so she didn't think that they would stay overnight.
These days, Hu Jin is doing most of the things to help her, making her have the illusion that as long as Hu Jin is by her side, she doesn't have to worry about anything.
Since when did she rely on him so much?
Chi Yuyang raised her eyes and saw Hu Jin looking at her.
He was staring at her intently before answering her question.
"Yes, the patriarch was already Tier 4 Orc many years ago." Hu Jin replied slowly.
"Each level is divided according to strength?" This is the question that Chi Yuyang has always wanted to ask, "How do you know which level you've reached?"
Hu Jin said that every level up, it would cause an unusual change.
But for their Tiger Orcs, the most obvious and useful thing is that their strength becomes stronger.
"According to the patriarch's understanding, yes. There are four black stripes on the back of my beast form." After Hu Jin finished answering, he saw Chi Yuyang wiping her mouth with clean water, so he started eating.
When Hu Jin is in human form, he was neither fast nor slow or even rude when eating.
This eating habit of his has been criticized several times by some orcs of the tiger clan, and finally he shut them up with his fist.
But Chi Yuyang always eats slowly.
In Hu Jin's eyes, he felt that his wife is a perfect match for him.
Of course Chi Yuyang has no way of knowing how thick Hu Jin's wife filter is.
She was thinking about what she saw today.
The tiger cubs have more or less black stripes on their bodies.
So for them, the black pattern should not be their order.
As for Patriarch Hu Zuo, she hasn't seen him in his beast form.
But she remembered that his wrist was surrounded by four thin black stripes.
Thinking of this, Chi Yuyang looked down at Hu Jin's arm.
There were no other traces on his white wrist.
It seems that Hu Jin's race, besides the coat color, it is also different in other respects from the tiger race of this forest.
Unfortunately, Patriarch Hu Zuo only hurriedly met his father, don't even mention Hu Jin this tiger.
...
As the night fell, the temperature in the cave dropped sharply.
Maybe this forest is more remote than Hu Jin's stone house so Chi Yuyang felt that it was much colder here.
She no longer dared to say to let a certain tiger sleep alone.
Right now, she is wearing a long-sleeved and trousers, but still tries to get into Hu Jin's arms to get warmer.
"Winter is really here..." Chi Yuyang murmured before closing her eyes.
"Aowoo." Yes.
Winter has come, and his estrus* period has also come.
The white tiger waited until Chi Yuyang fell asleep before he secretly leaned in and licked her cheek carefully.
In order to restrain the desire in his body that has nowhere to vent.
In her sleep, Chi Yuyang felt a hot foreign object approaching her little by little.
She moved subconsciously.
"Tuantuan, don't make trouble."
—
"Aowoo woo woo woo-"
Chi Yuyang was awakened by a penetrating tiger roar the next morning.
"What's wrong..."
She opened her eyes and saw that next to her, Hu Jin had already turned back into a human form.
"It's the patriarch, something went wrong in the tribe." Hu Jin frowned, and even his eyes were not as vivid as they used to be.
How could it be so coincidental.
The day after he came back, something went wrong in the tribe.
Is he not supposed to come back...
"Don't think too much, let's go and see." Chi Yuyang guessed Hu Jin's entanglement.
"Okay." After speaking, Hu Jin changed back to his beast form.
Without hesitation, Chi Yuyang sat on his back.
Obviously, tiger Hu Jin moves faster than the human Hu Jin, and they soon reached the place where the patriarch issued a tiger's roar.
It's a small stream not far from the patriarch's residence.
When they arrived at the destination, what Chi Yuyang was thinking in her heart was Hu Jin's action of carrying her back last night in his human form. It wouldn't be because he was afraid that she would not want him anymore, so he kept delaying time, right?
"Shaman*, please save my daughter..." Chi Yuyang saw a back figure with tiger ears and animal skins hissing and crying, "Huya is my first and only child..."
This is the first time Chi Yuyang has seen a female orc in the Tiger tribe.
As the female's back is facing herself, Chi Yuyang couldn't see her looks clearly.
But from the voice, the orc sounded surprisingly young.
The other male orc standing beside her seemed to be the shaman in her mouth.
The orc was about the same age as patriarch Hu Zuo, and his appearance was also somewhat similar to Hu Zuo.
He sighed, then shook his head.
Does this mean, it's hopeless?
"Hu Yu, you can't help it?" Hu Zuo's face was also looking bad.
"I have never seen such symptoms." The Shaman called Hu Yu got up and helplessly looked at Hu Zuo.
They are not far from where Chi Yuyang was standing so she can hear their conversation clearly, and naturally can also see the cub lying on the ground.
It looked like...
but Chi Yuyang was not sure.
She touched Hu Jin quietly.
"Hu Jin, can you tell the patriarch to let me take a look? I may have a way."
Even if Chi Yuyang is 90% certain, but with the difficult medical environment here, it may not match.
And she didn't dare to assert that Tiger Orcs were the same as the felines she knew.
Hu Jin thought about Chi Yuyang's rescue to him before, and his eyes suddenly lit up again.
"Okay."
