Chapter 7

“Get the wrong idea?” Bai Ye had actually been here a long time ago. He had been secretly observing her and realized that she was really different from before. Not only did she work herself, but she also knew how to start a fire!

However, her eagerness to cut ties with him inexplicably made him very unhappy.

“Yes, it makes people misunderstand that you have feelings for me!”

Tang Guo glanced at him with a faint smile, but there was no warmth in her eyes. “It won’t be good to delay you from finding your beloved little female.”

Bai Ye snorted. “Me having feelings for you?” he said self-consciously. “Tang Guo, you think too much!”

“Okay, that’s good.” Tang Guo nodded and continued eating.

She looked so carefree and indifferent that Bai Ye’s mood gradually worsened. He threw the eagle in front of her irritably. “Eat this.”

Tang Guo looked down at a bird, which was as big as she was, thrown at her feet and frowned. She was full now and did not want to eat anymore. She refused decisively. “No need. I’ll take care of my own food in the future. There’s no need for the leader to worry.”

“Again, it’s best if we keep our distance from now on and have nothing to do with each other.”

Then she led the way out.

She had to go out and see if there was any food like wild vegetables. There were also spices and condiments. Since she was here, she would take things as they came. She had to work hard to live her life well.

When Bai Ye saw that she was leaving without a care in the world, he felt strangely angry. Then he wondered if she was playing hard to get again. He sneered to himself and walked away.

Tang Guo had no idea what he was thinking. Even if she did, she would just laugh it off.

She walked up the cliff with the memory of her Host. Sure enough, she found some red plant fruits in the nearby forest. When she got closer, she was overjoyed!

“It’s great! There’s chili!”

Tang Guo was too focused on picking peppers to notice that there were other females and cubs gathering nearby.

“Look, she’s picking that poisonous fruit? Is she crazy?”

“Heh, who asked her to sleep with the leader? The leader must hate her to death now and will never give her food again!”

Their discussion and mockery grew louder and louder, making it difficult for Tang Guo to ignore them even if she wanted to. The main reason was that she had superpowers, and her five senses were already stronger than those of ordinary people. Although her wood-type superpowers were still weak, she still heard every word they said.

Tang Guo glanced at them, then quietly activated her wood-type superpower.

The two females were oblivious until they tripped over vines that had somehow appeared at their feet.

“Ouch!” She immediately fell flat on her face.

Tango smirked, then happily picked a handful of chili and walked away. She had two in her hand, but she put more in her space. One good thing about her space—it kept food fresh and wouldn’t spoil no matter how long it was stored.

On the way back, she passed by the river. The river water here was so clear that one could see the bottom. Standing on the shore, they could see live fish swimming in the water. They were big and fat.

She couldn’t help but salivate at the sight. ‘With chili, maybe I could have steamed fish with chopped peppers for lunch later?’

Just the thought made her mouth water.

Promptly, she sharpened a branch for a harpoon.

There were not many people around, so she cast special power to the wooden forks. With each fork, she got two big fat fish that weighed seven or eight catties.

The sight of the clear river made her want to go into the water and take a bath, but then she looked at the animal skin she was wearing and then at her surroundings and decided against it.

Although this body was thin, it was well-developed. With such a figure, it would be too disadvantageous for others to see!

However, it was not comfortable to wash in the wet animal skin, so she simply washed the exposed parts.

Then, she removed the scales of the two fish by the river and cleaned them up. She put them on with vines and walked home with one in each hand.

On the way, many tribesmen saw her and looked surprised and shocked.

An older female named Yunzhi couldn’t help but persuade her, “Tang Guo, you can’t eat this fish. Your body is covered in thorns. Are you out of food? Why don’t you quickly choose a male in the tribe to form a contract with? When the time comes, with them hunting, you’ll be much better off in winter.”

Someone at the side laughed at her. “It’s a thankless task every time you try to persuade her. Why are you so nosy?”

Yunzhi sighed. She had advised Tang Guo a long time ago not to hang herself over Bai Ye. Unfortunately, she refused to listen. It would be annoying to persuade her too much, so she stopped. But now, seeing that she was so hungry that she had no choice but to eat fish, her heart ached for this little female. She could not help but try to talk some sense into her again.

However, she did not expect Tang Guo to listen.

Sure enough, she smiled at Yunzhi and left.

The people around her felt indignant for Yunzhi. “Why should we care about such an ungrateful, unruly, and willful female?”

But Yunzhi was swayed by Tang Guo’s smile. She thought to herself, Tang Guo, this little female, is actually smiling so amicably. She seems to have changed.

Tang Guo did not take their comments to heart. What the original Tang Guo had done in the past was too deeply rooted in the minds of the other tribes people. As she walked home, she recalled the cooking method of the steamed fish head with diced hot red peppers recorded in a gourmet book.

She had just recalled the recipe and was walking to her house when she saw Bai Ye standing at her door again. He stared at the dead eagle on the ground with a dark expression.
