He didn't think too much about it.
Nans looked puzzled.
He truly didn't see Si Lu picking anything!
Moreover, he didn't see Cheng Mo or anyone else picking anything either. Judging by the looks of it, it seemed like no one knew about this carrot.
So where did this carrot come from?
This carrot tasted especially fresh, like it had just been picked.
But...
He looked at Si Lu with a bit of confusion.
He couldn't figure it out.
"O(∩_∩)O hahaha~" Si Lu saw Nans's expression and immediately knew that this guy hadn't guessed it.
He's adorably dumb.
The others remained silent, but their eyes were filled with warmth as they looked at Si Lu.
This girl sure loves to play around.
Just look at how curious she made Nans.
But that wasn't all.
At the same time, they could see that Nans was truly simple and pure.
This guy is genuinely honest.
He never overthinks or asks too many questions.
Of course, White Flute's simplicity and purity were just an act.
One is truly a pure little white rabbit!
The other pretends to be a little white rabbit.
"Lu Lu, what are you laughing at?" Nans asked as he looked at Si Lu.
Inside, he was even more confused.
Did I ask something funny?
Why is Lu Lu laughing so joyfully?
"Who's going to tell him," Si Lu said with a smile.
She finally looked at White Flute.
Si Lu knew that White Flute loved moments like this the most.
"Lu Lu, you're so mischievous!" White Flute said indulgently, raising his hand to pat Si Lu's head.
"Let me tell you, but this is a secret. I'm only telling you because you're part of the family now, so you absolutely can't spread this. It's a very serious matter!" White Flute looked around, making sure there were no other beastmen nearby before he began to speak.
Of course, not only him, but Hei Yao and Cheng Mo also sensed their surroundings and confirmed there were no other beastmen before they relaxed.
This concerns Lu Lu's safety, so they naturally had to be cautious.
Before, they had thought Nans had already figured it out.
But now it seemed they had overestimated Nans's brain.
This guy really hadn't thought too much about it!
"Don't worry, I swear I won't tell anyone," Nans immediately promised, his face growing serious.
He figured it must be something really significant.
It's about a little female, after all, so he would guard the secret with his life.
He wouldn't tell anyone.
"Si Lu also has a gifted ability. Her talent is space and cultivation!" White Flute said, looking at Nans.
After speaking, he paid no more attention to Nans's dumbfounded expression and continued eating the carrot in his hand.
The others quietly continued eating their carrots without a word.
Si Lu looked at Nans's shocked expression and couldn't help but laugh.
What's there to be so surprised about?
Honestly, she didn't think her gift was such a big deal.
"What? Space and cultivation!" Nans was so shocked he could hardly speak.
Oh my God!
At that moment, he immediately started to put things together.
No wonder things sometimes disappeared mysteriously.
And other times, things would appear out of nowhere.
So that's how it is!
And cultivation!
He looked at the vibrant carrot in his hand and instantly understood.
No wonder this carrot was different from the ones he had seen before.
And, thinking back, Si Lu had often pulled out strange fruits and vegetables that he had never seen.
Now that he thought about it, everything made sense. He just had never thought too deeply about it.
He was utterly stunned.
But how could a female have such talents?
This was truly unbelievable.
Nans had never heard of a female with innate talents before.
This was the first time.
After about half a minute, Nans finally processed the information.
His gaze toward Si Lu grew even more fervent.
No wonder this is the female I like!
She's just so extraordinary!
How wonderful!
I've really found a treasure.
At the same time, he understood why it couldn't be told to other beastmen, nor could it be spread around.
If this got out, Si Lu would be fought over by all the beastmen on the continent.
After all, a female with space and cultivation talents!
How could anyone not be moved?
Her space could store food, especially for winter.
Her existence was practically a huge, mobile food storage warehouse!
Not to mention, her cultivation ability.
If those herbivorous beastmen found out about this, it would be even more astonishing!
Who knows what could happen...
Nans looked at Si Lu, his heart filled with worry.
This secret absolutely couldn't be revealed to other beastmen.
"I will keep it a secret. This is too serious—it must be kept under wraps!"
"We can't let this get out, or Si Lu will be in endless danger!" Nans said gravely.
He began to feel a little anxious.
Si Lu was so remarkable that if other beastmen found out, things would get very troublesome, and dangerous! With just a few male beastmen, there was no way they could protect Si Lu.
So...
At that moment, Nans also began to...
Sigh.
Si Lu had no idea that Nans had joined the ranks of those worried about finding her more mates!
"Don't worry, as long as no one says anything, it'll be fine. I'm always very careful," Si Lu nodded and said, not taking it too seriously.
"Yes, yes, we must keep this secret," Nans said.
His heart was still uneasy.
After all, this was no small matter.
They would need to be even more cautious in the future.
He looked up at the other beastmen working, all looking relaxed as they continued their tasks. He was surprised.
They didn't seem worried at all.
Why is that?
Could it be confidence? That's impossible!
Nans couldn't make sense of it.
"Alright, alright, just eat your carrot. There's no need to worry about this," Si Lu said.
"Though I also know this secret can't be kept forever, we'll do our best. I know you can't cover a fire with paper forever!"
"Nans, there's no need to be so concerned. When the time comes, we'll figure something out," Si Lu comforted him.
She wasn't too worried.
A secret like this couldn't be kept forever.
With her system, Si Lu wasn't too concerned.
Moreover, she was working hard to complete the system's tasks, and she believed there would be a solution when the time came.
"Yes, Lu Lu, don't feel pressured. We will all protect you!" Nans said resolutely as he looked at Si Lu.
No matter how many hardships or challenges lie ahead, they would protect Si Lu.
"Yes, yes, I trust every one of you, and there's no need to worry," Si Lu said.
The group relaxed, roasting by the fire and munching on their carrots.
The sky gradually darkened.
