My husband is too wild, I need to go home and find my mom.

Chapter 53 I fell in love with you at first sight

Linni asked curiously, "What are they doing?"

Yan replied, "This is the tribe's beast fighting. The one who knocks the other away wins. Only single males can participate in this event. If a female takes a liking to them, she will throw flowers at them."

Feng added, "That's what you call 'who gets the prize'."

Linni then realized the purpose of the flowers on the ground. The question was, who was this flower used for? Wasn't this poem from Ouyang Xiu's "Gui Tian Lu" (Records of Returning to the Fields) Volume 1 of the Song Dynasty? Are you orcs really that cultured?

At this moment, one of the tigers was knocked away, and the winning tiger transformed back into human form. It happily raised its hands and roared twice. Several females went up and threw flowers to it. Then it picked up one of the flowers, walked over and took the female's hand. The two walked to the tiger gate, knelt down together facing the direction of the Western Beast God Stele, kowtowed three times, and left amidst cheers.

Then more orcs came up to fight.

Linni asked curiously, "What are they worshipping?"

Yan said, "They are worshipping the Beast God. After worshipping the Beast God, they will go back and form couples."

So this is how weddings are conducted in the Beastman Continent! In that case, does that mean she, Yao, and Ye were having an affair without a matchmaker? (Cries while covering face)

Lin Ni decided to stop thinking about the question, picked up the fragrant fruit that Feng had given her, leaned against Ye, and broke off pieces of fruit to eat. She ate two herself and fed one to Yao. She looked up and asked, "Yan, have you ever participated in beast fighting?"

Yan shook his head: "No! I just turned 18 and haven't thought about getting a partner yet, so I didn't participate."

Linnie: "Oh, you haven't thought about finding a partner yet? That's great!"

Yan: "No, I meant before, I've been thinking about it now!"

"It's no use thinking about it, you're too young." Lin Ni teased him on purpose.

Yan looked aggrieved: "I'm not a child anymore. Once I participate in the coming-of-age ceremony, I'll be able to lay eagle eggs."

"You can lay eagle eggs yourself?"

"I want to have a child with you..."

Lin Ni suddenly remembered the matter of "not even being able to lay an egg." If she were to lay an egg, what would it be? Didn't Yan mention before that it was the female's decision? As Lin Ni's thoughts wandered, seeing Yan's coquettish expression, she asked, "What eagle egg? Have you reached level seven yet?"

Yan immediately shut up: I feel like you're bullying me again.

Lin Ni looked up at Feng and asked, "Has Feng ever participated in beast fighting?"

Feng shook his head: "I don't have any either. If Lin wants to see me fight beasts, then I will go."

Linni glanced at his exaggerated muscles: bulging pectoral muscles, eight-pack abs, and powerful biceps. He usually looked a little thinner than Ye—she couldn't tell if it was because of his oval face or his darker skin tone—but his tall, muscular, and broad-shouldered appearance made him look incredibly formidable. Linni couldn't even imagine what kind of huge tiger he would be in his beast form. She smiled and shook her head: "No need."

Since this beast fighting is an event for single beasts to find a mate, there's really no need to participate just to satisfy a little bit of curiosity.

Feng suddenly leaned closer and knelt on one knee in front of Lin Ni. Lin Ni met his loving phoenix eyes, and then Feng said, "Lin, I really want to be your partner and spend the rest of my life with you. Ever since I came of age, there have been many females who wanted to be my partner, but I didn't like any of them. On the day you came to the tribe, you walked towards me in the morning light, and I fell in love with you at first sight. Please accept me."

Lin Ni's face flushed instantly. Feng spoke with undeniable arrogance, yet without a trace of conceit; she had witnessed it firsthand, and what he said was the truth. His bold and direct declaration of love—that he had seen countless women, but only she was the one he had set his sights on—how could she not be moved!

Feng reached out and took Lin Ni's hand, which was still holding the fragrant fruit. Lin Ni struggled for a moment but couldn't break free. Feng placed her right hand on his chest, his heart pounding for her: "I really like you."

Lin Ni felt her heart pounding. She couldn't lie to herself; from the moment this handsome man with an oval face and phoenix eyes suddenly said, "I like you," and smiled at her, revealing a row of perfect white teeth, before blushing and lowering his eyes shyly, she had been smitten. Realizing her own feelings, Lin Ni looked up at him, smiled, and nodded.

Feng happily pulled her into his arms and kissed her hair: "Lin, thank you! I'm so happy!"

Lin Ni lifted her head from Feng's embrace and saw all the women in the circle looking at her with envious, jealous, and hateful eyes. Suddenly, she felt like she had found a treasure. She smiled and then pretended to look aggrieved as she looked up at Feng and said, "They were mean to me."

Feng turned and glared at the women, who all looked away, refusing to look at them anymore. Seeing that everyone had turned away, Feng turned back to Lin Ni and smiled, saying, "It's alright now."

Lin Ni smiled and nestled into Feng's arms. How could she not like a man like that! After secretly rejoicing for a while, Lin Ni turned to look at Yao and Ye, two men she also liked very much. They had been watching her intently, and even though she had accepted Feng in front of them, they didn't seem unhappy at all. Suddenly, Lin Ni snapped, "You two!" She glanced at Yao, unable to bring herself to scold him, and then said to Ye, "Ye, I'm your woman. Why are you so unmoved as other men openly profess their love for you?"

Night: What did you say? Who are women and men? What do you mean by indifference?

Linni added, "Actually, I don't want so many partners at all. Stop letting those men come to me to mate. You must defend your rights as a partner!"

Yao immediately straightened up and took Lin Ni's hand: "Lin, I'm sorry! We thought you had already accepted him. We will definitely stop you from doing so in the future!"

Feng wrapped his arm around Lin Ni's waist and whispered in her ear, "Okay! From now on, you'll only have the four of us as your partners. I promise I won't let any other males get close to you."

Night said, "Then you don't want those two stupid tigers anymore?"

Lin Ni blushed from Feng's intense heat and glared at Yan.

Yan: ? He was a little confused. He wasn't even her partner yet, so what right did he have to stop other males from courting her?

Seeing her glare at Yan, Feng said directly, "Then let's not have Yan."

Yan panicked: "No, Feng, you can't do this!" He then looked at Lin Ni: "Lin, please! I proposed to you even before Feng! I like you too." This cousin is so unreliable! He even secretly told Lin Ni some of her preferences, and he's already ungrateful! Although there's no such thing as "cousin" or "ungrateful" in the Beastman Continent, that's the gist of it! Humph!

Linni was amused by them: "Alright, stop bullying Yan all the time."

Yan nodded repeatedly: "Yes, they always bully me, Lin is the best to me!"
