Tang Guo was quite puzzled. She seemed to have made things clear to him before she left. She couldn’t understand why he didn’t stay away from her?
At that moment, she pretended not to see him. She carried the two fish that had been cleaned to the side of the fire and cut them into sections. The fish head was marinated to make steamed fish head with diced hot red peppers, and the fish tail was prepared to boil soup. When she was done cutting them and was about to put them into the pot, she realized something terrible. There was no pot!
There was only one stone pot in the entire tribe, in the center.
Tang Guo was only sad for a moment. She quickly thought of a solution.
There was no way to make a pottery pot for the time being, but she could get a wooden pot!
With her wood-type superpower, getting a wooden pot was just a matter of minutes!
However, what was annoying was that Bai Ye was still standing there. What was he trying to do?
Although she had superpowers, she was not prepared to let anyone know about this supernatural ability. What if these primitive people learned that she had superpowers and burned her as a demon?
Therefore, she finally diverted her attention to Bai Ye. “What are you doing? It’s late. Are you going to have dinner at my place?”
She looked extremely impatient. If she could, she would have driven him away.
Bai Ye could see that she was repulsed by him. He should have been relieved, but he felt strangely irritated by the look of annoyance on her face.
“You’d rather eat stinky fish than the eagle?”
‘So that’s what’s bothering you?’
Tang Guo gave him a very direct answer. “Yes, I’ve already told you this morning that I can support myself in the future. You don’t have to care about me anymore. It’s best if you stay as far away from me as possible!”
After saying that, she suddenly thought of something and added, “If you’re doing this because of my father’s kindness to you, then there’s even less reason to do so. You’ve repaid everything you owe. We don’t owe each other anything in the future.”
With that, she gave him a more direct wave and shooed him away.
She couldn’t wait for him to go. She was going to use her powers to make a wooden pot to cook!’
Hearing her mention his past indebtedness, Bai Ye’s already ugly expression became even more tense. His eyes were deep, and he exuded a cold aura.
But Tang Guo wasn’t afraid of him at all. She even glared at him. Why wasn’t he leaving yet?
It was then that Bai Ye really realized that she wasn’t playing hard to get with him. She really wasn’t interested in him anymore. That was why she’d abandoned him.
However obsessed she had been with him in the past, she was just as annoyed with him now.
Bai Ye felt that he ought to be happy. He had tried to persuade himself to do the same. It had taken him some time to construct his own thoughts before he could keep his emotions steady enough to speak to her. “Granny Witch Doctor said that you had taken the gallbladder of a plague snake and that it had done some damage to your body. You have to drink the blood of an eagle to heal it. You… ”
Tang Guo understood.
In that case, his repeated visits were for her own good.
Tang Guo accepted his favor. “Okay, I understand. I know my own body. You have a lot of connections. Can you leave now?”
Before Bai Ye could finish, she interrupted him. His expression immediately darkened. He snorted. “Don’t even think about causing trouble again. No one will feel bad if you really die!”
“Tsk, thank you so much!”
Her life was a gift from the heavens. She would treasure it and would not seek death for no reason!
Besides, what was a small illness? Under the nurturing of her wood-type superpower, it was nothing worth mentioning. In the future, when she absorbed plant origin energy and drank plant origin liquid, her body would only become healthier!
Perhaps she would still be young and full of vitality when they died of old age.
After he left with a long face, Tang Guo immediately picked up a bone knife left behind by her father and ran into the grove.
Jiu Chen was about to go out when he saw Bai Ye sitting at the entrance of the cave with a gloomy expression. They couldn’t help but chat with him curiously. “Boss, what’s wrong? Are you worried about Tang Guo’s health? You’ve already hunted the eagle. Don’t worry, Tang Guo will be fine.”
Bai Ye’s heart stopped. For some reason, he felt even more depressed.
“But, Chief, are you sure you’re not ready to make a pact with Tang Guo?”
Jiu Chen secretly observed Bai Ye’s expression as he asked, “Actually, Tang Guo is quite good too. After all, she’s a human female. Her heart isn’t bad. If you guys… if you don’t form a contract with her, she…”
“What?” Bai Ye suddenly turned to look at him, his eyes dark and somehow pressuring.
Jiu Chen suddenly gathered his courage and said, “If you really don’t like her and don’t want to form a contract with her, it’s better to say it clearly so that she can quickly find another male to form a contract with. After all, winter is coming soon.”
“Yes,” Bai Ye replied coldly, feeling only irony. Was he unwilling now? She was the one who was unwilling! 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝒆we𝒃𝘯𝒐νe𝑙.co𝚖
Jiu Chen waited for a long time but Bai Ye did not say that he wanted to form a contract with Tang Guo. Seeing that his expression was ugly, he took it to mean that Bai Ye was unwilling. Jiu Chen then happily announced unilaterally, “Since Boss is unwilling, I’m relieved! I’m going to start pursuing Tang Guo! Hehe!”
