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

Chapter 31: Chapter 31: Tripping Someone Up

Luan Ting watched Su Luoluo get closer and closer and couldn’t help but take a step back. "What are you doing?"

"If you don’t stay still, how can I..."

Before Su Luoluo could finish her sentence, the door was kicked open from the outside.

"Su Luoluo, have you no shame?" a sharp, young female voice rang out.

Su Luoluo looked bewildered. "What’s wrong?"

Seeing that she knew she was wrong but refused to admit it, the older female scolded her, "Did you use a Charm Fruit to climb into his bed again?"

"Charm Fruit? Climb? Auntie, what are you talking about?"

"Still trying to argue? Nuannuan saw it with her own eyes. She said you were clinging to Luan Ting..."

This young female had always admired Luan Ting. Hearing that an ugly monster like Su Luoluo had climbed into his bed, she was absolutely furious.

"Sister, why would you say I climbed into his bed? I was clearly just measuring Luan Ting’s height to make him clothes."

"Making clothes?" Upon hearing this, everyone present except for Su Luoluo was astonished.

"Making clothes is one thing, but what was all that talk about ’come here’ and ’don’t’?"

Su Luoluo said, sounding wronged, "I’m not as tall as Luan Ting, so of course I had to say that. But Auntie, how did you know I said that? Don’t tell me you were eavesdropping on me."

For an older woman to be accused of eavesdropping by a young female... Aunt Chang looked incredibly embarrassed.

She turned and glared at Su Nuannuan. "Nuannuan, what is wrong with you? How could you say that about Luoluo without getting the facts straight?"

Su Nuannuan had no idea why Su Luoluo was completely fine.

She pursed her lips, about to put on a pitiful expression to smooth things over.

But Su Luoluo was the first to start crying. "Sister, how could you accuse me so wrongly? And you brought so many people to eavesdrop on me! Do you hate me?"

"No, that’s not right. You’ve always been so good to me. Is it because of Luan Ting? Are you doing this because you like Luan Ting?"

Su Nuannuan never expected that not only would she fail to make a fool of Su Luoluo, but she would end up getting dragged into the mess herself.

A flash of awkwardness crossed her face. "Luoluo, how could you say that? I was just so worried about you. I was afraid you were going down the wrong path, so I... misunderstood you."

"Is it really a misunderstanding? I thought you knew Luan Ting had come to my room because you’re always watching him, Sister."

As soon as she said this, the people who had just believed Su Nuannuan now looked at her with suspicion.

That was true, wasn’t it? Even if Su Luoluo liked to use a seduction fruit, that was at least a matter between a couple. Why was Su Nuannuan so invested in it?

Su Nuannuan’s heart skipped a beat. "I... I heard Luan Ting’s voice, saying ’don’t,’ so..."

"So, Sister, you heard a little noise and immediately thought I was doing something bad? Is that the kind of person you think I am?"

These words were the very definition of a White Lotus.

This tactic might not have worked on anyone else. But Su Nuannuan prided herself on being good to Su Luoluo, a sister who cared for her younger sibling. No matter how unbearable Su Luoluo became, even when everyone else despised her, Su Nuannuan alone was the one who steadfastly stood by her side.

In reality, most people in the tribe didn’t think much of Su Luoluo either. After all, her bad reputation was already deeply ingrained in their minds. If someone else had suspected her, they might not have felt that Su Luoluo was being wronged at all.

But Su Nuannuan was different. She had crafted her own image so perfectly that this single misstep was a catastrophe.

Everyone turned to look at this supposedly understanding Su Nuannuan, who had always played the part of the caring, intimate sister. Even Luan Ting was no exception.

From the very beginning, Luan Ting had found what Su Nuannuan told him a bit strange. Now, after hearing Su Luoluo’s side, he found it even more suspicious.

’Why did she lead me here?’

’She insisted over and over that Su Luoluo had used a seduction fruit, and even called people from the tribe to come over.’

’It was obvious she knew this was going to happen.’

’Although there’s no concrete proof that she tampered with the seduction fruit juice on Su Luoluo’s beast skin during the day, all the suspicious circumstances tonight point to her involvement.’

Under the gazes of so many people, Su Nuannuan had no way to defend herself.

In the end, she could only apologize to Su Luoluo. "Luoluo, I’m sorry. I was in the wrong. Sister is apologizing to you."

Seeing her always gentle and considerate White Lotus sister bowing to apologize to her was incredibly satisfying for Su Luoluo.

’It’s just a pity,’ she thought, ’that there’s no proof today that Su Nuannuan was behind the seduction fruit. Otherwise, I would’ve torn that White Lotus’s mask right off.’

Su Nuannuan remained bowed for a long while, but Su Luoluo said nothing.

She could only repeat herself. "Luoluo, Sister is apologizing. Can you forgive me?"

With tears glistening in her eyes, Su Luoluo nodded, not forgetting to take a jab at Su Nuannuan. "I’ll be fine, as long as next time you don’t try to pin everything on your little sister."

Su Nuannuan was furious inside but could only manage a stiff smile.

And just like that, the commotion dispersed amidst the sound of Su Nuannuan’s apologies.

Su Luoluo hadn’t expected to peel off Su Nuannuan’s White Lotus mask in one go. After all, Nuannuan’s credibility was higher than hers.

However, once a crack appears in a perfect facade, it’s no longer so perfect.

Having put that villain in her place and seeing the defeated look on Su Nuannuan’s face, Su Luoluo went to sleep in a great mood.

「The next day」

She woke up feeling refreshed and ran a few laps around the deep pool.

Fu Feng was soaring through the air, dragging his tail, when he saw a fleshy lump moving below and took a closer look.

After recognizing the person, the corner of his mouth twitched. ’Su Luoluo is really fat. Even flying this high in the sky, I can still see her flab.’

But when he saw her running, he raised an eyebrow. ’Looks like she really is running to lose weight.’

Su Luoluo was completely unaware of this.

After finishing her run, she headed for her secret treasure spot.

Xiao Ye and Mo Xuan were already waiting there. This time, neither of them brought any eggs.

Su Luoluo, however, had picked a few wild pigeon eggs. She chopped up some mushrooms, placed them on top, and steamed them into mushroom eggs, which she handed to the two of them.

Without any oil, the steamed eggs were a bit lacking in flavor.

But even so, the two of them wolfed it down.

And they developed a very high opinion of Su Luoluo.

’Su Luoluo might be a bit ugly, but her cooking skills are seriously good.’

’Just with a few eggs, she can make so many different dishes—fried eggs, soft-boiled eggs, and now these steamed eggs.’

’Each one tastes different, and they’re so much better than eating them raw.’

Su Luoluo, after finishing her meal, didn’t think so. ’I can’t get much done without oil.’

Fortunately, now that she had two partners, she could finally start making some real plans.

Su Luoluo waited for them to finish eating, then looked at them and said, "Your task for today is to get a wild boar. Not too big, just enough for the three of us. It’s best if it’s a fat one so we can render some oil."

Without a word, the two men nodded.

Su Luoluo looked at the two tall figures and knew that for appetites their size, this breakfast was a little small.

After a moment’s thought, she added, "It’s hard to make anything else in the morning without oil. Once you bring back the wild boar, I’ll make you a new dish: stir-fried meat."

Hearing there was a new dish to eat, both of their eyes lit up.

They put down their fruit-shell bowls and left.

Su Luoluo shook her head. ’Those two really are foodies.’

Su Luoluo looked at the blackened pot in front of her and sighed. ’Looks like getting a pot is the next priority.’

While Su Luoluo was worrying about her pot, she had no idea that a new plot against her was already beginning.
