Wen Nanxi explained softly, "I found it in the Ancient Wood Forest."
Su Muyao's expression shifted as she asked, "Then after dinner, can you accompany me there?"
Wen Nanxi's gentle and picturesque eyes shimmered with clear brilliance, and he replied warmly, "Alright."
This was the first time she said she wanted to go to the forest, and he would protect her well.
Su Muyao noticed Wen Nanxi hadn't moved his spoon, so she urged him, "Eat quickly while it's hot. I can't finish so much, and if we don't eat it, it'll be wasted."
"Help me taste my cooking while you're at it."
Wen Nanxi didn't move.
Suddenly, Su Muyao remembered that yesterday she had drugged the food she gave to Xiao Jihan, hoping the effects would lead to a substantial relationship between the two.
No wonder Wen Nanxi now dared not eat the food she gave.
Her lips stiffened slightly as she said, "Well, rest assured, I don't have any ulterior motives towards you all now, there's no drug in the food."
After hearing this, Wen Nanxi replied, "Alright!"
Originally, Wen Nanxi thought all this food should be left for Su Muyao.
When there wasn't enough food, they always ensured Su Muyao was fed first, and only ate any leftovers.
When Wen Nanxi elegantly picked up the spoon, tasted a sip of the soup, he suddenly showed a surprised look.
Seeing Wen Nanxi's expression, Su Muyao asked, "How does it taste?"
In Wen Nanxi's clear and gentle eyes, a delicate softness radiated, his whole aura softened, gaining an artistic beauty.
He softly said, "It's very tasty!"
Su Muyao gave a light smile, "Then drink it all. Once we find more food in the mountains and forests, we'll make some culinary delights."
Currently, she had five Beast Husbands by her side, two claimed to be hunting outside to exchange for food, but often disappeared.
Only three appeared in front of her regularly.
Among those three, only Wen Nanxi showed her a somewhat agreeable attitude, not so averse to her approach.
Of course, there was no intimate relationship between them.
The most it came to was when she arranged something, he'd help to carry it out.
So if she needed protection going into the mountains, she could only call on Wen Nanxi.
She deeply understood the principle that if you want a horse to run, you must let the horse eat enough!
Upon seeing the smile on Su Muyao's face and meeting her clear, clean eyes, Wen Nanxi's beautiful lashes trembled slightly. He hesitated for a moment but added, "I've never had food like this."
Su Muyao knew the culinary culture in the Beast World was backward, with limited types of food people could identify.
Some food, even in front of them, they wouldn't recognize.
As she planned to head into the mountains to search.
The Beast World had an advantage, with the environment and climate unpolluted, Primitive Forests were abundant, providing plenty of resources.
For others, this harsh cold environment was an exile land.
But for her, it was the place richest in resources.
"If you like eating it, as long as you find the ingredients and I'll cook for you often."
Despite her strength recovering somewhat in three months which could allow her to break the bond with them, she couldn't let them dislike her so much.
To avoid them wanting to kill her once they're free.
Upon hearing these words, Wen Nanxi's expression changed, "Wife doesn't need to work so hard."
Su Muyao listened to his words and realized that no matter what she did, they might not believe her, thinking she was plotting another scheme.
She didn't explain much, anyway, they'll naturally understand with time, you need time to see someone truly!
After breakfast, Wen Nanxi tidied up the tables, chairs, bowls, and chopsticks.
Even while doing these tasks, his every move exuded an aura of nobility and elegance.
Outside, Wen Nanxi transformed into his snake form, "Please, Wife, get on!"
Su Muyao knew Wen Nanxi would carry her to the mountains.
She directly sat on Wen Nanxi's snake body.
Wen Nanxi then carried her towards the forest.
As they passed through the tribe, she saw many caves and stone huts.
Some She-beasts sat at the entrance, basking in the sun, chatting lazily.
Most of the Beastmen had gone into the forest to hunt.
When everyone saw Su Muyao, they all looked surprised.
"No way? Su Muyao actually went out?"
"Doesn't she hate Snake Beasts the most, never letting her Snake Beast Husband transform into his true form?"
"I don't know, I heard yesterday her Snake Beast Husband was dying, and she used superpower to save him."
"Really? How could a She-beast possess superpower? Unless she has witch doctor abilities, but witch doctors are all beastmen."
"Everyone saw the injuries Wen Nanxi had yesterday, even the witch doctor couldn't do anything..."
Many She-beasts watched Su Muyao sitting on the snake body, all extremely surprised, gathering together to discuss.
Su Muyao heard their discussion but didn't pay attention.
After leaving the tribe, Wen Nanxi sped up, his snake body leaping directly, almost like flying in the air.
Su Muyao could only tightly hold onto Wen Nanxi.
She felt at the moment she held Wen Nanxi tight, his snake body stiffened.
Wen Nanxi almost fell from the sky.
He accelerated further until they reached the place with the red fruits, quickly putting Su Muyao down, then transforming into human form.
Still gentle and elegant looking, only his ears were slightly red.
"These are the red fruits."
Su Muyao's eyes brightened upon seeing so many tomatoes.
But without tools, there's no way to collect such a large number of red fruits.
In the apocalypse, she had spatial storage, but she couldn't sense it now, perhaps due to losing it when she crossed over.
Or maybe it needs a specific timing to awaken.
She could only search around and found some vines, saying, "Wen Nanxi, can you help me get some vines?"
"Alright!"
After Wen Nanxi gathered some vines for Su Muyao.
Su Muyao sat down and started weaving backpacks and baskets.
She was skilled and wove rapidly.
Before the apocalypse, in the technological era, she grew up in a village and learned to weave these things with her grandparents, acquiring many cultural skills.
Watching Su Muyao's actions, Wen Nanxi's picturesque eyes seemed to swirl with moonlight, landscape reflected.
Turning deep and shimmering.
He gently asked, "Wife is weaving something?"
"Yes, weaving backpacks and baskets to hold these red fruits."
"If you feel bored, you can stroll around."
"But if I encounter any danger, I might call you to protect me."
Meaning, he shouldn't wander too far; she should be able to call him over promptly.
Wen Nanxi nodded; there was no food at home, he planned to look around, maybe hunt some beasts for food.
After Wen Nanxi left, Su Muyao began picking tomatoes to fill the backpacks and baskets.
While busily working, suddenly Su Muyao sensed a dangerous aura, turned to see a giant beast with a massive body and spikes all over.
It directly attacked Su Muyao.
Su Muyao yelled, "Wen Nanxi!"
As she shouted, Su Muyao leaped up, swiftly climbed a nearby tree.
When Wen Nanxi arrived and saw Su Muyao's actions, a look of astonishment appeared in his picturesque eyes.
He remembered Su Muyao never knew how to climb trees.
