Chapter 166 – Do you like him? (2)
___.
Ruan Qiuqiu thought Grandpa Mo might not be as old as she had guessed. That’s why he had become younger in such a short period of time.
She quietly glanced at the gentle-looking Grandma Ruyi. She had probably changed herself to look so old in order to match Grandpa Mo. How unexpectedly romantic. She noticed that Qing Ruyi wasn’t pushing Grandpa Mo to eat the grilled meat…
“Brother Mo, you don’t want to eat? Are you not eating because you want me to feed you?” Qing Ruyi was smiling as she picked up a skewer and walked over to Grandpa Mo.
Ruan Qiuqiu: “…” The romantic mood had shattered too quickly.
After determining that everyone had eaten their full, Qing Ruyi finally nodded in satisfaction.
Ruan Qiuqiu looked at the crow lines on Qing Ruyi. She hadn’t completely let down her guard, but she wasn’t as scared of her.
She knew there were many kinds of fiends in this world. The ones below level 3 had meager intelligence. Level 3 to level 5 fiends had a hard time controlling their desire to eat humans and demons. However, level 6 and higher fiends possessed human-like intelligence.
Level 6 fiends were even rarer than level 6 demons. It was rare for them to appear in human and demon tribes.
Ruan Qiuqiu guessed that Qing Ruyi was a high-level fiend. If her guess was right, it wouldn’t be difficult for her to pretend to be a demon and change her appearance.
Having confirmed that Little Yu and the others were fine, Ruan Qiuqiu was relieved.
Moreover, it was a good thing for Grandpa Mo’s family to be under the shelter of a powerful fiend. After all, with Qing Ruyi around, they would at least be able to easily pass this winter.
Ruan Qiuqiu’s gaze softened. She stood up and was about to say goodbye. She wanted to go near the forest to collect rattan and do some hunting. She had to hurry up if she wanted to finish her to do list for today.
Little Yu picked up his bone stick and wanted to go with her. “Older Sister Qiuqiu, I want to go dig some wild vegetables. Let’s go together.��
Qing Ruyi put her hand out to stop him. She patted his head. “Stay here and keep Grandpa company. Grandma will go.”
After saying this, she very naturally picked up the stone axe that Grandpa Mo had been holding yesterday and straightened up the clothes she was wearing. It was obvious that the animal skin clothing she was wearing belonged to Mo Bugui. Finally, she kissed Mo Bugui, who had a conflicted expression, before blinking at Ruan Qiuqiu.”Let’s go.”
Ruan Qiuqiu: “…” She felt like she had eaten a big bite of dog food.

After they left the cave, Qing Ruyi walked ahead of Ruan Qiuqiu and didn’t stop walking until Grandpa Mo’s cave was almost out-of-sight.
Ruan Qiuqiu guessed that Qing Ruyi had something she wanted to talk to her about. She nervously clenched her hand around the spear.
Seeing that Ruan Qiuqiu was very nervous, Qing Ruyi softened her tone to say, “Don’t be afraid. You helped my husband and them. I can be considered your elder. Grandma won’t hurt you again.”
Ruan Qiuqiu: “…”
She wasn’t sure what to feel about Qing Ruyi’s insistence on being her grandma.
Regardless, she relaxed. After all, she hadn’t felt the slightest hint of killing intent from Qing Ruyi after Qing Ruyi had met Grandpa Mo.
“I know you have a lot of questions for Grandma.” Qing Ruyi smiled as she looked at her. “Let’s go. I’ll take you to a place I found last night. We can pick a lot of wild vegetables there. We can talk on our way there. Grandma happens to have a lot of questions to ask you too.”
Ruan Qiuqiu froze in surprise for a moment. Qing Ruyi had many questions for her too? Could it be that she really knew her? Or could it be that she was Mr. Gray Wolf’s enemy?
Just as Ruan Qiuqiu made these guesses, Qing Ruyi, who was walking in front of her, leisurely said, “What’s your relationship with Yuan Jue? Has it gotten to that point yet?”
Ruan Qiuqiu: “…”
Before she could react, she heard Qing Ruyi continue to ask, “I’m guessing you guys haven’t taken that step yet. Do you like him? That wolf hasn’t done anything to you, right?”
