Ugly, Fat, and Vicious? My Five Beast Husbands Are Obsessed Anyway

Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Well-behaved Beastmen

"System, what just happened to me?"

Su Luoluo felt like she had just been in a daze. She had some vague memories, but they weren’t clear.

"Host, you were just poisoned by the seduction fruit. Luan Ting found a Li Fruit for you and cured the poison," the system’s mechanical and cold voice sounded again.

"The seduction fruit? But I didn’t eat it," Su Luoluo said, confused.

Forget eating it—since transmigrating into the book, she hadn’t even seen the legendary thing.

"Su Nuannuan did it. While you were building your house, she sprinkled some of its juice on your beast skin blanket."

"Beast skin blanket?"

No wonder she thought it smelled a little strange when she was handling it. She had thought it was just her imagination, but now it was clear Su Nuannuan had tampered with it.

’Is she trying to make a fool out of me?’

She probably didn’t expect me to take a nap during the day, which is why it all happened then.

Thankfully, it was Luan Ting who came over. He was discerning enough to save her and cure the poison.

Otherwise, if it had happened at night and she had called over any random Beastman, she would have once again become a joke for her failed attempt at "bed-climbing."

’Just you wait, Su Nuannuan. I won’t let you get away with this.’

Before, she just thought Su Nuannuan was a bit of a White Lotus and that her petty squabbles were nothing serious. But to actually poison her? This was unforgivable.

’But for something this major, why didn’t the system say anything to me?’

At this thought, Su Luoluo yelled at the system.

"System, why didn’t you warn me that the beast skin blanket was laced with seduction fruit?"

"Host, the system detected that a capture target was nearby. This was an excellent opportunity to help you capture the target, so it thoughtfully decided not to disturb you."

"Are you serious?! You call being poisoned by the seduction fruit an opportunity!"

"Host, opportunity often coexists with danger," the system reminded her coldly.

"I don’t see any opportunity! Besides, my underwear and Beast Skin Skirt were both flipped up. I’ve already made a complete fool of myself in front of Luan Ting!"

She didn’t think any Beastman—no, wait—any normal person would fall for the disheveled mess she had just been.

It was a complete disaster.

The thought of Luan Ting, the one she had the most hope of capturing, seeing her sleeping on her stomach with her butt exposed and her top all disheveled made Su Luoluo’s heart sink.

Thinking of this, Su Luoluo was desperate to know the current status of her capture target values.

"System, report the capture target values!" Su Luoluo said, her voice lacking confidence.

"Understood, Host. Querying now..."

A moment later, a blue screen of light flashed before Su Luoluo.

Host: Su Luoluo.

Age: 18

attraction value: 10

Expected Meeting Value: 10

Following Host’s Status: 5

Skill: Water Ability (Level 1)

Capture Target Romance Brain Index:

Xiao Ye: Stone Brain, Heartbeat Value 1

Mo Xuan: Stone Brain, Heartbeat Value 1

Fu Feng: Stone Brain, Heartbeat Value 1

Nantu: Stone Brain, Heartbeat Value 0

Luan Ting: Filter Brain, Heartbeat Value 1

Other than Nantu, who was away, Su Luoluo hadn’t expected the Heartbeat Value of the other Beastmen to have all increased.

And her attraction value had also gone up.

Su Luoluo guessed there were two possible reasons for her increased attraction value: one, she had lost weight, the birthmark on her face was gone, and her skin had become much fairer; two, her cooking was good and had attracted several Beastmen.

’But what’s with that Expected Meeting Value?’

She didn’t understand why it had gone up by five points before, and now it had gone up by another five?

’Could these five Beastmen actually be looking forward to meeting her?’

If Su Luoluo were a Heavenly Immortal, she would confidently assume they were eager to see her.

But as she was now, she was considered hideous!

’Why would these Beastmen look forward to meeting me?’

This piece of data made her turn to the system for confirmation:

"System, are you sure there’s no mistake with this Expected Meeting Value?"

"Yes, Host. Rest assured, all system data is normal."

’Fine, I’m the one who doesn’t get it.’

She hadn’t expected that today’s seduction fruit incident not only didn’t cause Luan Ting’s Heartbeat Value to drop, but actually made it rise to 1.

Still feeling uneasy about it, she confirmed with the system one more time.

"System, is this data in real-time?"

"Yes, Host. All data is real-time."

Only after getting a definite answer did Su Luoluo finally feel at ease.

’To think it was a blessing in disguise.’

It was just that the next time she saw Luan Ting, she’d have to be thick-skinned, or she’d never be able to look him in the eye.

The moment she thought about Luan Ting getting a full view of her butt, she was so embarrassed she could have dug a three-bedroom apartment with her toes.

After her nap, she woke up to find it was already late afternoon.

Because hunting took up an entire afternoon, the people in the tribe only ate two meals a day.

Breakfast and dinner.

The reason Su Luoluo didn’t eat three meals was that she wanted to lose weight, so she also stuck to two meals a day.

Waking up from her nap, her stomach instantly started to feel a bit hungry.

After straightening her clothes, she walked out of the house and headed back to her "treasure trove."

Yesterday she had beggar’s chicken, so today she wanted to try something different. The patch of mushrooms to the left was growing well; they would make a mushroom soup so delicious it would make your eyebrows fall off.

But with no oil and no meat at the moment, it could only be a thought.

’If only I could catch a wild boar. I could render the fat into lard and use the rest of the meat to stir-fry all sorts of dishes.’

Unfortunately, she was too weak to even move one.

It seemed she would have to find something else to eat tonight.

Su Luoluo searched around and finally found a fish.

It couldn’t be helped. The vegetables in her treasure trove were wonderful and fresh, but even the most skilled housewife can’t cook without oil.

Without rendered oil, no dish would turn out right.

Fish was one of the few things that could be cooked naturally without needing oil.

As she returned from the deep pool with the cleaned fish, she saw two figures holding eggs and loitering around the spot where she had made breakfast.

Su Luoluo: "..."

’Just as I thought. Xiao Ye bringing eggs this morning has backfired.’

She ignored the two of them, taking her fish and starting a fire to roast it on her own.

Xiao Ye cleared his throat and offered her the eggs. "These are goose eggs I just found."

Mo Xuan, seeing Xiao Ye’s move, followed suit. "And these are wild duck eggs I found."

Su Luoluo glanced at them but didn’t accept the eggs. "I already had eggs this morning. I’m not eating them for dinner."

Xiao Ye’s hand, holding the eggs, froze for a moment. Mo Xuan also withdrew his eggs.

The two looked at each other, then spoke in unison. "As long as you cook for us, we can help you with other chores."

Su Luoluo’s eyes flickered at their words. This was exactly what she needed.

There were some things she couldn’t do, but they were perfect for the job.

Su Luoluo shot them a glance. "In that case, go catch two fish yourselves. We’re having fish tonight."

Hearing this, the two of them vanished in an instant.

A moment later, they reappeared before Su Luoluo, carrying two fish.

Su Luoluo sighed to herself. ’A Beastman’s Instant Teleportation Ability really is incredible.’

After instructing them to clean out the guts, she coated the fish with her specially mixed sauce, then skewered them on sticks and set them aside.

Once that was done, she took the opportunity to look at Xiao Ye and Mo Xuan. "What do you think of my cooking?"

The two nodded in unison. "It’s delicious."

Su Luoluo smiled. "Since you like it, how about we team up and eat together regularly?"

They couldn’t have been happier to hear that.

Su Luoluo looked at them with satisfaction. "However, if we’re going to be meal partners, you’ll have to help me find a few things."

The two of them looked confused.

Su Luoluo whispered a few words to them, and they both nodded in understanding.

After dinner, Su Luoluo returned to the tribe.

Before she even reached her own house, she saw Su Nuannuan glancing over at it from time to time.

A smile touched her lips. ’Just wait for the fish to take the bait. I’ll make a nice, big stew out of this White Lotus!’
