Future Beast World: Becoming A Pampered Beauty-Chapter 116 - 68: He’s the Craziest One

Little Bai’s face soured as he recalled the hardships of the past month or so. "Those people from my clan came looking for me once. They used the clan’s name to try and take all the Crystal Stones I’d earned. It was Brother Leopard who helped me sort it all out..."

Sang Luo rested her chin on her hand and watched them. ’A peaceful, prosperous life... It’s quite enviable.’ 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

After the meal, Little Bai brought over a money pouch filled with quite a few Crystal Stones and gave it to Sang Luo.

"Business at the shop is good. In a little while, I’ll go pick out a new location and open another branch. Your share of the profits will definitely be even bigger in the future, ma’am!"

"I hope your business gets better and better, then I can bask in some of your glory~"

During her time with Duotu, Sang Luo had never really been short on Crystal Stones. But after their falling out, she felt a bit uncomfortable using his things... Besides, they were destined to part ways eventually, so it was good for her to have some income of her own.

Sang Luo hadn’t seen Little Bai and Leon for many days, so they caught up and she asked them how they’d been.

When the two asked her how she was doing in the Beast King Palace, Sang Luo was vague, only mentioning the good parts and avoiding any mention of Duotu.

Leon had followed Sang Luo for a long time and was worried she wasn’t doing well in the Royal Palace. He’d heard the Beast King still hadn’t held a bonding ceremony for her, which actually reassured him a little. ’If the Admiral were still here, he would definitely want her to have a better life.’

Before they knew it, evening had fallen. It was time for dinner, and the eatery welcomed another wave of customers. Sang Luo told the two of them to go take care of business. She stayed in the private room for a while, leisurely munching on snacks by herself.

Suddenly, shouts and the chaotic sound of footsteps erupted from downstairs. Sang Luo thought someone was starting trouble and was about to go down when she saw Little Bai hurrying up the stairs.

"Ma’am, the Beast King is here for you! He’s come to take you back to the palace..."

’What?’

’Hasn’t he been busy lately? He came all the way here himself?’

Sang Luo’s expression darkened. She walked to the window and saw a vast army of Beastmen below, assembled and ready.

Duotu had actually brought an army with him. The immense and intimidating presence had the entire city surrounded layer by layer. The eatery, in particular, was completely sealed off. The customers inside and the nearby Beastmen had all fled in terror, thinking some major disaster had occurred.

At the very front, a tall, imposing, golden-haired man stood out from the crowd.

The moment Sang Luo opened the window, the man looked up, and their eyes met.

His frayed nerves were instantly soothed.

"Luoluo!"

"..."

SLAM! She slammed the window shut.

’She did that on purpose. She definitely did that on purpose!’

Little Bai and Leon didn’t know the full story. They simply thought Duotu had come to escort her back to the palace, but the spectacle was a bit too extravagant.

"Ma’am, it’s getting late. Why don’t you hurry back? It seems the Beast King is very worried about you; he probably thought something happened to you." Little Bai had never seen such an intimidating display in his life. His ears drooped as he spoke, a little frightened.

"Okay. I’ll come see you again to catch up when I have time."

Sang Luo smiled at them, but the moment she turned to go downstairs, her eyes turned cold.

’Duotu found me here, so he must know I’m fine. He’s doing this on purpose to warn me, to tell me to stay in the palace and not run around.’

When Duotu saw Sang Luo come down from the building, he rushed forward and pulled her into a tight embrace.

"Luoluo, I couldn’t find you in the palace. I thought you... Why did you leave without telling me?"

"..."

Seeing Sang Luo’s silence, Duotu’s joy at having found her slowly gave way to an inexplicable panic. His voice began to tremble. "Don’t leave me. Don’t disappear from my sight..."

Sang Luo sighed. "Let’s go back to the palace."

She finally understood completely.

’He won’t let me go until I give him a child.’

’Fine! A child it is, then! I’ll have one!’

Sang Luo felt like she was being driven mad. Deciding to throw caution to the wind, she pushed him away, looked up, and said coldly, "Isn’t it an heir you want? Fine. After we get back, I’ll give you one!"

"Luoluo..." Duotu froze, but there was no discernible joy on his face. He tried to grab her hand, but she shook him off.

"And after I give birth, you’ll let me go. We’ll be completely even then, right?"

Duotu stared at her intently, his Adam’s apple bobbing as he whispered, "If you want to leave, I won’t..."

"Good. Let’s go back to the palace now. I’ll give you one right away!"
