Chapter 89 Secret (2)

Jiu Hu stood up and took the empty basket that is at the side of the room. Then, went to Hu'er's table.

Jia Ting went in and waited for Jiu Hu to go out. They already talked about it. He will have a discussion with Hu'er alone.

"I'll bring the things down." He put all the leftover food and other things in a basket. Then, he left Hu'er and Jia Ting alone in the room.

Jiu Hu didn't plan to hear them talk or help Hu'er if she needed it that's why he agreed letting them be alone. He trusts Jia Ting too. Jia Ting's Dad and ancestors are the best tacticians of the Fox Tribe. They are very smart and talented.

They never hurt anyone from the Tribe and have been protecting their family since he was welcomed to their family and even the death of their mate came.

He is also the reason why except for physicians, all Hu'er's mom's mate have different work in the tribe. It was all calculated by Jia Ting. It is also the reason why they are living well.

When their mate dies, Jia Ting stop going out. He will only do so when he is needed. He never took a hold of their family anymore and let them decide what they wanted to do.

They did almost beg him to take charge again when Hu'er survived the second winter. Fortunately, when Jia Ting saw Hu'er after that second winter, he already decided to help them out and make sure Hu'er will live well and be protected.

Jia Ting don't have any full blood relative. He did have half brothers though. His mom is also still alive and well. But they are not close because his dad took him away immediately and taught him everything he knew.

However, their bloodline is weak. From the old times to Jia Ting's Dad, they can only get one cub alive. It's not rare either. There are beastman who are also like that.

Anyway, Jia Ting is the youngest of them. Only they knew his secret. A secret that might come out as the time is getting nearer.

Anyway, the room is quiet and it made Hu'er feel nervous. 'Did I made him angry? Did I made a mistake? Did I do something bad to summon him?' Hu'er really want to scratch her head right now but didn't.

Being with Jia Ting alone is giving her so much pressure. Hu'er couldn't think of anything she did bad except for teasing her future mates and hiding that book that is still under her butt.

To be honest, she didn't think those things are bad. It's a natural thing. Very natural.

She moved her butt making sure it is secured there. Must keep it hidden.

Jia Ting sat down opposite of Hu'er. The only thing that is seperating them is the table. He is staring at Hu'er seriously. This made her more nervous that she is in right now.

Hu'er didn't know why but she suddenly feels guilty and look away. 'Daddy Jia Ting is scary…' she thought. Her hands are nervously playing with her clothes.

Jia Ting knows what he is doing right now. He is purposely give her a pressure, making her nervous and letting her know that not everyone is within her hands.

He knows how spoiled she is compared to other females out there. No females will go out often, but she does. No beastman will approve letting their daughter and future mates to talk casually to othe beastman, but they let her do whatever she wants.

This time they gave her some punishment and Jia Ting saw how she is behaving. Hu'er did great. It's also the reason why he is here.

Jia Ting sighed. "Hu'er, I heard you want the punishment to be stopped. Feel a bit tired of it?"

Hu'er immediately look at him, 'Who snitched?' Before she can even make an excuse. The next thing that her Daddy Jia Ting said made her eyes shine.

"I will give you a chance. I will lift the punishment. In return, I want you to say why you want to lift the punishment, and what you can promise me, and give me in return.

If I'm fine with it, I will let you do what you want. And if it's great then I will promise you that no one will say no to you. We will do what you want us to do.

As long as it's not against the Tribe, killing, and doing something that would endanger your life and our family. I can make it happen. I will help you to achieve whatever you want." Jia Ting stared at her, waiting for her answer.

Hu'er pursed her lips and thought about it seriously, 'Daddy Jia Ting can decide for our whole family. Getting his support will surely help me big. I also saw how he can sway the Tribe Leader and elders when doing trades. However… is it a trap? But this trap is full of treasures… Should I jump in and see how it goes?'

Jia Ting gave her some time and didn't speak. When he felt that it is already time to get an answer he asked, "what's your answer?"

Hu'er looks at him. Determined, "Yes. Yes. I can. I will take the deal."

"Have you really taught it through?" Jia Ting gave her a chance to say no.

"I'm sure." Hu'er nodded. Full with will. Her mind is already spinning. She want to make him satisfied with her answers and everything. She want to get his support.

Once she does, getting more mates and joining them to go out the Tribe will be easy. For now, that is ultimate goal.

Hu'er was too caught up with what she wanted to do once she got Jia Ting's support and dind't see that his eyes filled with schemes.

Jia Ting nods at her. "Go on. Start with why should I lift your punishment."

Hu'er straighten up her back. She is ready to convince him.
