Around 15 minutes later.
âHowl, howl, howl...â
âWe are wrong. We made a mistake.â
The gang were beaten back to their original shape... no, the dogs were howling in pain on the ground.
âStop hitting us. We are blind to not recognize your power. We are sorry, we are sorry.â
âHowl, howl, howl... it is so painful. My butt.â
âMy tail. Howl...â
Wen Nuan was shocked to see this scene. The frightening shapeshifters had turned back into their beast form and were struggling with pain. They looked extremely funny.
However, Wen Nuan was unable to laugh.
This girl had a knife!
Was she not from this world?
Wen Nuan had been in this world for a long time so she knew that there was no metal in this world.
Ming Shu felt weak after hitting them. She quickly took out some fruits to replenish her energy.
Wen Nuan looked at Ming Shu as she ate her fruits.
â...â
Was she here to save them?
After Ming Shu finished her fruits, she stepped on the big dog that tried to get up. The big dog fainted.
Ming Shu walked toward Wen Nuan. She stared at her.
Wen Nuan swallowed. This person was a shapeshifter.
Why did she have a knife then?
Was there actually metal in this world?
Wen Nuan swallowed her questions. She didnât dare to ask Ming Shu if she was a human.
The girl said, âSince I saved you, you must make nice food for me in the future.â
The storyline mentioned that the female protagonist was good at cooking.
If the female protagonist didnât have good cooking skills, she would not be able to survive in this world.
âHuh?â
She didnât know why this weird shapeshifter made such a strange request. However, she still nodded her head.
She thought that she was dead.
Since she saved her, she should agree to her request.
Ming Shu untied her. Wen Nuan stood up and moved her stiff joints.
She glanced at Ming Shu. She confirmed that Ming Shu was not dangerous and felt at ease.
âCan I release them?â
Ming Shu took a look and waved her hand. âUp to you.â
Wen Nuanâs eyes lit up. This shapeshifter seemed to have a good temper.
She released the other shapeshifters. These shapeshifters were captured by the black dog tribe. Most of them were from the other tribes around this area.
âCan I borrow your knife?â Wen Nuan asked carefully.
Ming Shu was focused on munching her fruit so she didnât think much and threw her knife to Wen Nuan.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The next moment, she turned her head. âWhat are you doing?â
I didnât expect you to be so cruel!
Wen Nuanâs hand shook. She said in a soft voice, âI... I am making food for you. Didnât you ask me to... make food for you?â
Ming Shu: â...â
Ming Shu looked at the gray rabbit in Wen Nuanâs hand. The rabbit was already dead. It must have been killed by the people from the black dog tribe.
However...
âThey are all shapeshifters,â Ming Shu reminded Wen Nuan.
Wen Nuan paused before replying, âNo... they are just normal rabbits.â
Ming Shu raised her eyebrows. âThere are no normal rabbits in this world. All the animals are born as shapeshifters.â
Wen Nuanâs hand shook and the knife dropped to the ground. Her face turned pale.
Then, she rushed to the side and started vomiting.
The other shapeshifters were puzzled. They didnât know what happened.
Wen Nuan didnât eat much when she was caught so she only vomited out some stomach acid.
She held her stomach with an uncomfortable expression. âBut... some shapeshifters told me that animals who had this mark on them were normal animals.â
Wen Nuan pointed to the abdomen area of the rabbit. There was a symbol that looked like a sun printed on it. Its color was similar to the rabbitâs fur so it was hard to notice the symbol.
A shapeshifter said, âThis is a bond.â
There was a kind of bond between a female and a male shapeshifter. Once they formed this bond, the male shapeshifter could never have another female shapeshifter.
Female shapeshifters could have many male partners.
âYou canât eat too many of these animals.â The shapeshifters who knew about this symbol said, âThe bond contains power. If you eat too much of it, you will turn crazy. However, it is alright to eat it occasionally.â
Wen Nuan face was white after listening to the explanation.
She met many shapeshifters after coming to this world. But, she was on the run most of the time so she didnât have the time to understand them.
Wen Nuan calmed down with the help of the shapeshifters.
However, her face was still pale.
Ming Shu squatted down beside Wen Nuan and asked her curiously, âWho told you that these were normal animals?â
Wen Nuanâs stomach still felt weird. Her throat was dry. She took a long time before she replied, âHu Jiu.â
Ming Shu guessed that it was the fake female protagonistâs doing.
It was common knowledge that eating too many bonded shapeshifters would make you crazy.
Since the female protagonist came here not long ago, it was normal for her to not have this knowledge. However, if someone told her fake information, this person must be up to no good.
Ming Shu said, âYou are not from this world. Donât worry. It might not affect you.â
Wen Nuan caught the main point.
Her eyes brightened. She stammered, âWhat... what did you say just now?â
âIt might not affect you.â
âNo, the sentence before this.â
âDonât worry.â She must be patient with her chef. She couldnât hit her.
âThe sentence before this.â
âYou are not from this world.â
Wen Nuan grabbed Ming Shuâs hand. She was excited. âHow... how do you know that? Did you transmigrate here too? Do you know how to go back? I donât want to stay here anymore.â
Ming Shu pulled her hand back forcefully. âI am not.â
Wen Nuan was stunned. âThen... how did you know about it?â
Ming Shu smiled. âI am here to save you...â
Ming Shu told Wen Nuan the entire story. She told her that she was the female protagonist but the fake female protagonist managed to make a comeback and hence, she had a bad ending. She even told her the details of the story.
Then, she lied to her and told her that she was here to save her and change the storyline.
Wen Nuan was stunned.
âYou are saying, that I will...â She signaled with her fingers. âHave this many partners in the future?â
â...â The female protagonist noticed the weirdest things. Shouldnât she be thinking about Hu Jiuâs comeback?
Wen Nuan clutched her chest and shivered in fear. âAm I crazy?â
She was raised in a decent family. This was too much for her to handle. Her mind was in a whirl.
âHow did I accept this?â she asked Ming Shu.
âHow would I know? I am not you.â Ming Shu shrugged. She smiled and asked her, âHave you heard of a saying?â
âW... what?â
âRelationships will develop if you stay with a person for too long.â
â...â
Wen Nuan felt that Ming Shu had some other meaning behind her words.
Wen Nuan was stunned. âNo, no, no, no... I will not become a scumbug.â
Ming Shu looked at her.
Wen Nuan shook her head fearfully.
Ming Shu: â...â I am not your partner. Why are you shaking your head at me?
âCook some food and calm down.â Ming Shu passed her some things that looked like sweet potatoes.
