Mei BaoQin tilted his head slightly. The sun’s rays travelling through the gaps between the branches and leaves of the giant tree, reflected his face in Yang QiQi’s eyes.

Although this man was handsome, his appearance was not as refined as Nian JiMo. His aura was also different from the rough and tough masculinity that oozed from Zheng Shou. He had a special temperament that attracted people by just a glance. He exuded a kind of calm and confident attitude that seemed to convey that everything was under his control.

His figure was enveloped by a trace of mist as the gentle wind made his long silvery blonde hair fly freely.

The three of them looked up at the person on the tree in a stupor. When he finished playing the melody, he put down the leaf from his lips and looked down at them.

His eyes passed from Zheng Shou to Nian JiMo and finally stopped on Yang QiQi.

“Hello, Mei BaoQin.” Yang QiQi smiled at him.

Even Mei BaoQin was dazzled by her face. It took him a few seconds to regain his consciousness.

“Hello, beautiful little female.” He stood up from the tree, crushed the leaf between his fingers with a flick, and welcomed them happily: “Welcome to my home, my friends.”

Zheng Shou returned to his human form and picked up Yang QiQi from the ground. He tested the tree pole a few times before stepping on it and climbing up the tree. Standing next to Mei BaoQin, he held out one of his hands to hold Mei BaoQin’s outstretched hand while his other hand held Yang QiQi tightly to him. After Nian JiMo’s arrival, he shook Mei BaoQin’s other hand.

The three men laughed at the same time, and then their eyes fell on Yang QiQi.

“BaoQin, this is the little female, Yang QiQi, that Nian JiMo met in the forest yesterday. The two of us have decided to be her Guardian Beasts. Today, we came here to ask if you’re willing to be her guardian beast. But we didn’t expect to be ambushed on our way here. Let’s go in and discuss the situation.”

“Please.” Although Mei BaoQin guessed the purpose of their trip when he saw them, the corners of his lips curled up in happiness after hearing Zheng Shou’s statement. He looked at Yang QiQi profoundly and turned sideways to allow the three people to enter his house.

Mei BaoQin’s residence was tidy and comfortable. As soon as they entered through the door, they saw a hall for meeting guests. There was a partition wall behind which was the kitchen, where they could see some modern cooking utensils and beautiful cabinets. This also confirmed Yang QiQi’s notion that the level of technology used in this unknown world was very high. Zheng Shou’s and Nian JiMo’s residence seemed primitive only because they were prisoners here. They were here in the Saintess forest to reform themselves and not for vacation.

Seeing Yang QiQi’s curiosity, Mei BaoQin explained with a smile: “There is no other energy source in the Saintess forest, so I use solar energy.”

“Oh.” Yang QiQi nodded her head to express her understanding.

“I’ll take you upstairs. QiQi can take a bath there, change clothes and make herself comfortable.” He took by her hand and led her up the stairs.

Yang QiQi asked Nian JiMo and Zheng Shou with her eyes. When both of them nodded, she followed him obediently.

Mei BaoQin was satisfied with her cautiousness. This Yang Qiqi was not like the other little females he had encountered in the Empire before. Most of them were stupid, arrogant, simple and wilful. He could see that his proposal tempted her to a great extent, but even then, she did not forget to ask for the consent of her guardian beasts. She seemed to take their opinions in account before coming to a decision.

This was the correct and sensible approach.

After all, she didn’t know him well. So naturally, she should be a bit defensive when going somewhere alone with a male beastman she had met for the first time.

The two sitting on the chairs in the hall were also very happy with Yang QiQi’s subconscious actions as it made them aware that Yang QiQi cared about them very much. She trusted them and respected their opinions. The female beastmen of the Empire were free willed. They rarely consulted their guardian males.

Their QiQi not only had an unparalleled beauty unseen in the world, but even when they encountered a sudden attack on their way, she did not abandon them. They were sure that the little stones that helped them a lot during their fight was shot by her.

They didn’t ask too much while travelling, but it did not mean that they did not want to know why Yang QiQi’s little stones had such a magical power. However, they felt that it was more important for Yang QiQi to take a bath and make herself comfortable before asking such questions.
