Guide To Train My Beast Husbands-Chapter 198: Unnamed
Ruan Zeqiu wanted to refuse, but Ruan Chanchan didn’t give him a chance to refuse. She quickly whipped up some instant noodles that she had stored in her supermarket and used a tiny bit of the demonfire chilli for the flavour. She didn’t dare to make chilli oil when the tribe was unaware of how good this thing was. Who knows? Shao Xia might end up yelling to the moon and back that Ruan Chanchan was trying to kill everyone with the deadly potion that she had created. Ruan Chanchan didn’t want that.
Ruan Zeqiu opened his mouth, but then he swallowed his words back. Earlier, he created a huge fuss when his sister brought the mushrooms back and in return, he got an unwanted, undesired and useless brother-in-law. What if he did the same thing now, and he ended up getting another brother-in-law?
No way.... I already have enough trouble with just one – there is no way I am going to let another mer snatch my sister away; one is bad enough, thought Ruan Zeqiu with his eyes narrowing dangerously. It was bad enough that Xie Daiyu was snatching his sister’s attention away from him; how could he allow someone else to join in the fray? Never. He would never allow someone to take his sister away. One was enough.
In fact, one was already too much.
His thoughts were, however, broken when he smelt something really delicious. He turned and looked at Ruan Chanchan, who was stirring the ladle inside the pot and sniffing the air. There was a subtle scent in the air that made him hooked.
"Sister, this—"
"Doesn’t it smell good?" Ruan Chanchan said to her brother as she scooped a bowl of noodles and handed it to him, who took it with a dubious look on his face as if he was certain that this thing could never be good. But as soon as he took a bite of it, his eyes lit up. The instant noodles tasted just as good as they always did. There was a numbing sensation on his lips, but it tasted so good that even though Ruan Zeqiu felt a little pain, he just couldn’t stop eating the noodles that were served to him. He sucked in a breath and said to Ruan Chanchan, "Sister, how is this so good? I never thought that this fruit could taste so good." The last time he ate it, he swore to never even get close to this thing.
It was a good thing that he didn’t shy away from it, or else he would have missed something really good.
Ruan Chanchan smiled after hearing his praise. She scooped some for herself and took a bite. Hmm, something was missing, but it was still better than eating raw meat. Though Ruan Chanchan missed her own world, when she saw the piles of trophies that she had brought with her, Ruan Chanchan suddenly felt better.
The bamboo shoots that she had collected were better than the ones that were found in the dimension where she lived. They were neither too hard nor too soft. They were just perfect. They would taste really good if she made kimchi out of these bamboo shoots; she was sure that it would taste really good. Ruan Chanchan licked her lips just thinking about it.
"What are you two doing?" Xie Daiyu walked inside the cave as if it were his own home and took a look at the noodles that were resting inside the pot. His eyes lit up when he saw the noodles resting in the pot, and he walked over to where Ruan Chanchan and Ruan Zeqiu were sitting. He took a look at the slightly reddish noodles and knew that there was something added to them, as he had never seen the noodles turn into this fancy and pretty colour before.
Ruan Zeqiu rolled his eyes. Already upset at the fact that his noodles were about to be snatched.
Of course, Xie Daiyu knew that the mer was upset with him. He suppressed the twitch of his lips and placed the two giant chunks of meat that he had brought with him. One of them weighed more than two kilograms. However, orcs had good appetites, and this piece of meat could only be counted as a little snack, but it was still big in comparison to what others would bring when visiting others.
Ruan Zeqiu only snorted upon seeing the meat; he had no interest in this little bit of meat, which could only fill the gaps between his teeth. Ruan Chanchan also looked at the meat with a little smile. Ever since she regained a little bit of faith energy, her appetite had grown a bit more. Now, even she felt that the meat was a bit less.
But she was much politer and smiled at Xie Daiyu before saying to him, "You didn’t have to bring the meat."
Xie Daiyu knew what Ruan Zeqiu was thinking. He rolled his eyes and said to Ruan Chanchan, "I got this from my mother; no one has gone to hunt this morning. This was the only thing that I got after asking my mother." He sat down next to Ruan Chanchan and softened his tone. "But don’t worry, I will bring more meat for you."
"Why will you bring more meat for my sister?" Before Ruan Chanchan could say that there was no need, Ruan Zeqiu exploded. "My sister has enough to eat with me; why are you jumping in between? If she wants to eat more meat, then I will bring it for her. You do not worry."
Xie Daiyu smiled softly. He glanced at the mer as if he was speaking nonsense and said to him, "Zeqiu, you are forgetting that I am her partner. More than you, I should be the one taking care of your sister."
"Are you saying that I cannot take care of my sister?"
Xie Daiyu pursed his lips. "I didn’t say that. I simply said that, with you being too busy to take care of your sister. Were you not?"
Ruan Zeqiu slowly got to his feet as if he was about to pounce on the mer and kill
Ruan Chanchan was speechless when she saw the two mers fighting. But when she saw that the fight had escalated to the point where the two mers were about to throw punches, she raised her hand in the air. "Woah, woah, woah... easy there, champions. Just what the hell are you two doing? Why are you suddenly starting a fight?" 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
Her voice snapped the two mers out of their frenzied rage. They whipped their heads at the same time to look at Ruan Chanchan. While Ruan Zeqiu was upset that his sister was taking sides with the mer whom she had known for less than a few weeks, Xie Daiyu was filled with joy. Ruan Chanchan, taking sides with him, proved that she finally saw him as a match instead of a partner with whom she could work. At least she stood up for him when it mattered.
However, before he could even shoot a proactive look at Ruan Zeqiu, Ruan Chanchan turned to look at him and said, "Don’t provoke my brother for no reason."
This time around, it was Ruan Zeqiu’s turn to become smug. He shot a provocative smirk at Xie Daiyu, who gritted his teeth so hard that the sound echoed in the silent cave. He hated it so much that he wished to wipe it right off. But could he do that when he was trying to woo this stupid mer’s sister? Xie Daiyu was certain that Ruan Chanchan wouldn’t like it if he were to bury her little brother alive somewhere.
So, what else was he supposed to do other than smile and say, "Of course, I will not provoke him for no reason."
He then turned to look at Ruan Zeqiu before saying to him, "And I am sorry if I sounded like a jerk to you. I was just trying to tell you that there is no need for you to make me your enemy. I have no intention of doing such a thing, like blaming you for something like not taking care of your sick sister. It was never my intention, so do not take it to your heart. How can I ever say that you were not taking care of your sister when you have done your best?"
After he finished speaking, he didn’t forget to shoot a sweet smile at Ruan Chanchan as if he was waiting for her to praise him.
Ruan Chanchan: "...."
She looked at the mer who was looking at her as if he were a proud toddler and had no idea what to make of the current situation. Was she supposed to tell this guy that he was a very good boy and that he had done a really good job?
