Although Lu Xingzhi is only five years old, he is already a very polite and considerate child. Song Yanqing took Shang Shujue to see him.
He was Gu Family injured lamb, holding the dark-skinned calf in his arms and feeding it tender grass bit by bit with his small, cracked hands. He then quickly fed it increasingly inflamed and hot herbs, a practiced skill.
Beside Lu Xingzhi was his uncle, a tall, burly, rough-looking Alpha named Lu Liuru.
He was bundling up the dry hay, loading it onto a tricycle, and hauling it back to the tribe's largest hay warehouse to store for feeding the cattle, sheep, and horses in the winter.
Looking up, she saw Song Yanqing carrying half a beef leg in one hand and leading a beautiful Omega with fair skin and delicate features in the other. She paused in her rope-pressing motion, but quickly suppressed her emotions.
Song Yanqing brought Shang Shujue over, and Lu Xingzhi saw them as well. He was first attracted to the beautiful Shang Shujue, and then looked at Song Yanqing. His serious little face didn't change, but his eyes were bright and sparkling, showing that he really liked his uncle.
"Shubadler..."
Song Yanqing put the flesh off his shoulder, then gave Lu Liuru a peer, and spoke to Shang Shujue in a tribal language that Shang Shujue could not understand.
It sounded like Tibetan, but it also seemed to have a regional accent, but he didn't know much about the ethnic group and still couldn't understand it.
After securing the rope, Lu Liuru walked over to Song Yanqing. She seemed to have overheard something, glanced at Shang Shujue, nodded with a complicated expression, and then chatted with him in their tribal language for a while before speaking in Mandarin.
"Hello, elegant Omega gentleman, my name is Lu Liuru, I am Yanqing's cousin. It's a pleasure to meet you, and welcome to our family. Yanqing is a very good person, thank you for choosing him."
"Hello, my name is Shang Shujue. It's nice to meet you. I know he's a good person, I've always known that. Thank you for welcoming me, I'm very happy."
Shang Shujue held Song Yanqing's hand tightly without letting go. He smiled happily as he spoke, his eyes sparkling with love and trust as he looked at Song Yanqing.
Lu Liuru nodded gently, patted Song Yanqing's shoulder, and then turned to introduce Lu Xingzhi to Shang Shujue. Upon hearing his name, the little guy ran over with the lamb in his arms, looking up at Shang Shujue with bright, sparkling eyes.
"Hello, Auntie~" The little guy's childish voice made the three adults laugh as soon as he opened his mouth.
Hello, Little Azhi.
Shang Shujue raised his hand and rubbed the little guy's head, then casually stroked the lamb's woolly head; it felt nice.
He didn't feel there was anything wrong with being called that by the little guy; in this worldview, his position was simply that of a "girl."
Lu Xingzhi's cheeks flushed instantly after his pretty aunt rubbed his head. He didn't dare look at her anymore and instead lowered his head to pick at the lamb's wool, causing it to nibble at his sleeve.
Lu Xingzhi wasn't afraid at all. He stuffed the tender grass into its mouth and stared at Shang Shujue. This was the most beautiful Omega he had ever seen in his life. The tribe's Omegas were all tanned, but he wasn't tanned at all; he was as white as jade.
Song Yanqing patted Lu Xingzhi's head, reminding him not to stare at other people's wives. The little guy blushed and continued feeding the lamb.
Seeing this, Shang Shujue laughed so hard he almost fell backward into Song Yanqing's arms. Song Yanqing supported him, and seeing him laugh, he couldn't help but let out a helpless yet indulgent smile.
Lu Liuru's expression relaxed slightly. He could tell that Shang Shujue, this Omega, genuinely liked his cousin and truly wanted to join the family.
His cousin is usually cold and aloof, ignoring anyone who tries to be nice to him. Now that he's finally found someone he likes, his family is overjoyed.
Perhaps soon, these men will accompany Song Yanqing to prepare the betrothal gifts. Once the gifts are ready and Shang Shujue accepts them, their wedding can take place, and the tribe can share in the joy.
" Azhi, your uncle is going to deliver hay. You and Uncle Yanqing go stay with your great-grandfather. Your uncle will come pick you up tonight, okay?"
Okay~
Afterwards, Song Yanqing hung the dried beef leg he had brought in the kitchen, and then returned to his temporary tent with Shang Shujue, Lu Xingzhi, and the injured lamb he was holding.
Along the way, the three of them attracted a lot of attention. Shang Shujue was even given a lot of gifts. He explained his and Shen Lanting's background. The news about the Rose Base had already spread, and they were probably just sympathizing with him, so they took extra care of him.
So when they arrived at the temporary tent, all three of them were carrying things. After they put their things down and settled the lamb, they went to Shen Lanting's tent together.
The tribal physician, Qin Yu, was taking Shen Lanting's pulse, his brows furrowed, as if he had encountered a great problem. Outside the tent, a number of single Alphas who had finished their work and Betas who had come to watch the spectacle had gathered.
Shang Shujue is very beautiful, but he is already with Song Yanqing, the tribe's number one warrior. So he couldn't help but come to see Shen Lanting. Shen Lanting is also very fair-skinned and beautiful, with a gentle temperament.
Although he is pregnant, he doesn't have the scent of Alpha pheromones, making him clearly a single Omega. They all want to give it a try.
Omegas are rare to begin with. Although there are Omegas in the tribe, their numbers are not large, and none of them are as beautiful and fair-skinned as Shen Lanting and Shang Shujue, who are from outside the tribe. Moreover, they all have fiery tempers and are already in relationships.
In the tribe, a mate is someone you snatch and keep, so they all want to try. Of course, this doesn't mean they'll disregard the Omega's wishes.
Wow, it's so lively here!
Shang Shujue was a little surprised, not expecting so many people to be outside the tent. Lu Xingzhi looked at him, then at Song Yanqing, wondering what had happened.
Song Yanqing wasn't surprised at all. He squeezed Shang Shujue's hand and pulled him a little closer. "These bachelors are really eager. You should stay away from them."
Shang Shujue just wanted to laugh when he heard that. Lu Xingzhi didn't understand, but he laughed along with her. The bachelors who were being laughed at, on the other hand, remained very quiet, only daring to chirp in their hearts...
Single guys: Brother Qing, you're inhuman! You're the one who's drowning in your own water, why are you slandering us! There's nothing wrong with us pursuing love! Hmph!
