After transmigrating, she became the most beloved beast in the world.

Chapter 17 Milk Stewed Eggs

Soon, Chu Xinyao returned to the caravan, looking refreshed and clean. She saw Mo leading the people to light a campfire, and suddenly felt a burning pain in her gums.

These people never seem to change up their meals. But when she got closer and smelled that familiar fragrance, she realized they had changed their menu after all.

"Xinyao, come and try these 'Giggle Beast Eggs' cooked with shea juice."

Chu Xinyao sat down next to Mo and looked at his hand. Today they were having steamed egg with milk again!

She took a spoonful from the wooden spoon, and the delicate egg trembled slightly in the spoon. As the spoon moved, a faint aroma of milk and egg mingled together, gently wafting into Chu Xinyao's nose and teasing her sense of smell.

The beast-themed milk custard bursts with rich milk and egg flavors upon first bite, sweet but not cloying.

"Mmm, delicious!" Chu Xinyao exclaimed.

Mo smiled as he watched Chu Xinyao eat the rare food, such as the cuckoo beast egg cooked with shea butter juice, without showing any surprise, as if it were just ordinary food.

He casually picked up a stick and gently poked at the fire, making the flames burn brighter.

A probing glint flashed in his eyes. "Xinyao, does this suit your taste? You don't seem surprised at all. Did you eat this often before?"

Chu Xinyao nodded and smiled, "Yes, it's been a long time since I've had this. It's sweet but not greasy, and nutritious. It's a very good breakfast choice." She scooped up a full spoonful and put it in her mouth, her eyes squinting happily.

"It seems Xinyao's tribe is quite powerful. These 'Giggle Beasts' are not easy to catch. Your father must be very strong to allow you to eat such precious food from a young age." He was becoming increasingly curious about Chu Xinyao's background.

Chu Xinyao gently put down her spoon, her eyes filled with complex emotions. She sighed, "Ah, you're right, but I can enjoy all this not because of my father, my powerful father's strength, but because of my tribe, my tribe is incredibly powerful." There was a hint of pride in her voice.

Mo was somewhat surprised, then revealed a curious expression: "Oh? Xinyao's tribe is actually very powerful. That really makes me very curious. Can you tell me more about your tribe?"

A sly smile played on Chu Xinyao's lips as she gently set down the spoon, leaning slightly forward towards Mo. Her movements were both elegant and subtly alluring, and her voice was low as she asked, "What, curious?"

Mo sensed Chu Xinyao's approach. Her faint fragrance lingered in his nostrils, and her sudden closeness made his heart race involuntarily. He could feel her breath brushing against his earlobe, the warmth spreading from his ear to his cheek. Chu Xinyao's proximity made him feel inexplicably nervous, and he tried his best to keep his voice calm.

“Yes, I’m curious,” Mo replied, his voice hoarse.

Chu Xinyao noticed Mo's nervousness, and her smile deepened, her eyes gleaming with amusement. She lightly ran her fingers across Mo's wrist, the gentle touch making Mo's heart pound even harder, and he even dropped the wooden stick in his hand.

“My tribe, ancient and powerful,” her deep voice was full of allure, “we have ancient legends, powerful warriors, and…” She paused deliberately, completely piquing Mo’s curiosity.

"What else...?" Mo asked urgently.

A look of triumph flashed in Chu Xinyao's eyes, and her voice became even softer, carrying a hint of provocation, like a pebble gently thrown into Mo's heart, stirring up ripples.

“There’s a lot more, but this shea butter juice custard isn’t enough for me to tell you all. I still need to keep it a secret.” Chu Xinyao blinked, playfully leaning back slightly, maintaining a certain distance from Mo.

"Xinyao, you're so naughty." Mo suddenly reached out and flicked her nose.

She deliberately aroused his curiosity, but did not easily satisfy him.

"Mo, what you're doing is very dangerous, you know?"

His red eyes narrowed slightly. "How am I in danger?"

Chu Xinyao chuckled softly. Mo was completely under her control. She moved closer again, reached out and lifted Mo's chin, and said flirtatiously, "Being curious about me could be dangerous, as it could lead to you falling for me."

A playful glint flashed in Mo's eyes; he seemed to be enjoying this seductive interaction. Chu Xinyao's words were not only provocative, but her actions were also bold, as if she were testing Mo's bottom line while simultaneously reveling in the feeling of control.

"Really? That's really dangerous." Mo's voice carried a hint of mockery. He didn't back down because of Chu Xinyao's teasing. Instead, he moved closer to her, his eyes fixed on her. "But sometimes, dangerous things are more attractive, aren't they?"

Chu Xinyao's lips curled up, her eyes gleaming with smugness. She said softly, "You're right. So, are you ready... to fall in love with me?" She gently moved closer to Mo, her soft body almost touching his. Her sweet breath surrounded Mo.

Mo's red eyes grew even deeper, his breathing quickened, his Adam's apple bobbed, and his voice became increasingly hoarse: "Falling in love with you seems... not difficult."

"Really? Then I am truly honored." Chu Xinyao lightly touched Mo's cheek with her fingertips, the movement gentle yet incredibly alluring. She leaned forward slightly, almost touching Mo's lips.

Mo's heart pounded even harder, his attention completely drawn to the hands on his body. "Xin Yao, what are you doing?"

"What do you think?" Chu Xinyao lowered her head slightly.

Mo's face turned bright red, and a struggle flashed in his eyes, but in the end, he chose to close his eyes and wait for the moment to come.

"Hehe, what are you expecting?" With the weight on her body lightening, Chu Xinyao stood up.

Mo, realizing he had been teased, was a little annoyed: "Xin Yao, you tricked me!"

Chu Xinyao feigned innocence and said playfully, "Really?" Seeing Mo get up, she turned to run away.

Suddenly a hand appeared on her waist, startling her so much that she let out a soft cry.

Mo moved swiftly, firmly grabbing Chu Xinyao's waist and preventing her escape. His voice held a feigned reproach: "Xinyao, is it fun teasing me?"

Chu Xinyao was startled by Mo's sudden movement. She turned to look at Mo, who was holding her waist tightly, and shook her head with a smile, saying, "It's not fun, it's not fun, I won't dare to do it again."

Her sudden admission of weakness left Mo both amused and exasperated.

A kiss gently landed on Chu Xinyao's cheek. "Then, this kiss will be your punishment for teasing me."

Chu Xinyao gently touched the spot where she had been kissed, then turned to face Mo. "Mo, is this punishment?"

Mo's smile deepened, a hint of doting in his eyes, as he traced Chu Xinyao's lips with his fingertips: "What do you think?"

Chu Xinyao's eyes lit up, and she changed her mind. She suddenly reached out and grabbed Mo's wrist, pulling him closer to her: "You're so cute, well... I have to reward you."

Mo's heart was pounding so hard it felt like it would burst out of his chest. He asked hoarsely, "Oh, what kind of reward?"

Chu Xinyao's smile grew even sweeter: "I want..." she drawled, then whispered softly in Mo's ear, "I want you to remember me, to remember this moment."

Her lips suddenly pressed against his, soft and warm, a stark contrast to his slightly cool lips. Her lips lingered on his, savoring his response.

"Ah, um..." Xiao Hua ran over and saw this scene, her mouth agape in surprise.

The big tree quickly covered her mouth to prevent her from crying out and pulled her aside.

Unfortunately, the commotion still startled the two of them. Chu Xinyao pushed Mo away and faced the panicked Xiao Hua and Da Shu.

Xiaohua's face was full of surprise, her eyes wide open, clearly shocked by what she had just witnessed.

Mo looked at the two of them with a hint of displeasure on his face.

While covering Xiaohua's mouth, Dashu apologized to the two of them, "We're sorry, we didn't mean to, we'll leave now."

Chu Xinyao smiled awkwardly and coughed lightly: "Ahem, that's perfect. We've talked enough. I'll go back to the car now."

The surprise on Xiaohua's face gradually faded, replaced by a hint of curiosity in her eyes: "Are you chatting? No, you're not...?"

Chu Xinyao quickly stepped forward and pulled her back, saying softly, "Xiaohua, we were really just chatting. We're going back now." The last sentence was meant for Mo to hear.
