Chapter 499 Just bear it!
His tone was clearly unwelcoming and tinged with panic.

Bai Wanwan didn't care about her attitude, and even sat down on the stone bench in the room with an indifferent smile.

Realizing her slip of the tongue, the woman in blue immediately explained, "I...I didn't mean that."

Bai Wanwan didn't care at all; the two powerful males stood beside her like guardian angels.

The man in blue glanced at Yin Ze's cold face and Yan Lie's hostile gaze. He composed himself and finally spoke, his tone carrying a strange mix of grievance and accusation: "I've met several of your beastmen, each one stronger and more outstanding than the last. So... after you left me, you didn't actually suffer too much, did you? You're doing very well."

"Hmm, so what?" Bai Wanwan raised an eyebrow, waiting for her to continue.

“Since that’s the case…” the man in blue raised his voice, as if he had found some kind of confidence, “then you shouldn’t blame me! In that situation back then, giving birth to you damaged my very being, and the clan shaman said that I might never be able to have children again.”

"And you... are just a useless female, weak and on the verge of death! I am a foreign female, helpless and alone in the tribe, I have no choice. I had to do it! I just wanted to protect my status, to protect my mate, what did I do wrong?"

She became more and more agitated as she spoke, as if she were the victim who had been wronged by fate.

"So," Bai Wanwan's voice was as cold as ice, "that for your future and status, you can justifiably abandon your own offspring and leave her to fend for herself? You think you're right?"

The man in blue choked, his face flushed, and his voice lowered, yet still held a hint of resentment: "You...you're doing just fine now, aren't you? And you even have so many powerful beastmen..."

"That's because I'm lucky! I'm just born with a silver spoon in my mouth!" Bai Wanwan's voice suddenly rose, filled with suppressed anger. "If I weren't lucky, I would have died in some unknown corner long ago, devoured by wild beasts until there wasn't even a bone left!"

The man in blue was intimidated by her imposing manner and shrank back, but still forced himself to say, "You're lucky, you have everything now, so... so you can't blame your mother and your father! You should..."

"Should what?" Bai Wanwan sneered, interrupting her.

"You should try to persuade your father!" The man in blue said urgently, as if grasping at a straw. "Go tell him that you don't blame me anymore, and ask him not to blame me either! If you speak up, he will definitely listen! I... I will accept you too."

A hopeful light shone in her eyes.

In Bai Wanwan's view, her existence was merely a tool for her to save Jiaoyuan.

Looking at her matter-of-fact and unrepentant attitude, a cold malice arose in Bai Wanwan's heart.

She was an orphan in her previous life and longed for family affection.

But if it's a mother like the one in blue... that's worse than having no mother at all!
"Do you want me to help you..." Bai Wanwan deliberately dragged out her words.

The man in blue nodded repeatedly, even smiling.

“…Dream on!” Bai Wanwan even gave her a wicked smile.

The smile on the man in blue froze on his face, turning into astonishment and disbelief.

Bai Wanwan suddenly stood up, looking down at her with icy eyes: "If you didn't want me, why did you give birth to me? After giving birth, you threw me away like trash, and now you want to use me as a tool to win back your male? There's no such thing as a free lunch."

Her voice wasn't loud, but every word was piercing: "Don't worry, not only will I not help you, I'll also make you taste what it feels like to be abandoned and discarded!" Originally, she disdained to interfere in the matter between Jiao Yuan and Lan Yi, but Lan Yi's face made her feel a deep sorrow and anger for the original owner who had long since passed away!
After saying that, she no longer looked at the pale face and trembling body of the woman in blue, turned around resolutely, and strode away with Yin Ze and Hua Han.

She ignored the blue-clad woman's desperate cries and curses that came from behind her.

After leaving Lan Yi's place, Bai Wanwan went straight to the stone house where Jiao Yuan was recuperating.

"Father Beast, are you feeling better?" She pushed open the door and entered, her tone carrying a gentleness she herself was unaware of, a gentleness born from Jiao Yuan's selfless rescue.

Jiao Yuan, who was leaning against the stone bed and staring blankly at a fruit, suddenly looked up when he heard the word "father beast," and his eyes burst with great joy!
He was radiant with joy, so excited he almost jumped out of bed; there was no trace of injury or illness about him.

"Alright! Alright! Father Beast is all better, Wanwan, don't worry! Look, Father Beast can jump and bounce..." She said, about to get out of bed to perform.

"Alright, alright," Bai Wanwan said helplessly, pressing him down, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes. "You're making a fuss just as you're getting a little better."

Looking at the slightly reproachful look in the female cub's eyes, Jiao Yuan felt completely comfortable, even sweeter than eating the sweetest honey fruit.

He immediately sat up straight like an obedient child.

“Father Beast,” Bai Wanwan sat down beside his bed, her tone calm but carrying a sense of farewell, “I’m leaving tomorrow, departing from the Flood Dragon Tribe, and returning to another continent. Please… take good care of yourself.”

"Leave?" Jiao Yuan's smile froze instantly, as if he had been doused with a bucket of ice water. "How...how can it be so soon? Can't...can't you stay a few more days? Father Beast..." His eyes were filled with reluctance.

Within a few days, they learned that their female cub had been switched at birth and found their biological female cub.

But just as they were being recognized as family, the biological female cub was about to leave.

“The other continent is where I grew up. My home, my roots, and my cubs are waiting for me there.” Bai Wanwan’s voice was soft, but firm.

Jiao Yuan felt as if his heart was being gripped tightly, and he closed his eyes in pain.

Yes, if it weren't for the blue-clad woman... how could her little one have made such a faraway place her home? Her true home should be here!

Seeing his pained expression, Bai Wanwan sighed inwardly and softened her tone: "But Father, don't worry, I will come back to see you when I have time in the future." This was the promise she could keep.

"Can't... stay?" Jiao Yuan's voice was filled with a humble plea.

“No.” Bai Wanwan shook her head, meeting his gaze frankly. “Whenever I see your partner in blue, I’m reminded of how she abandoned me, causing me to suffer so much pain in another world that I shouldn’t have to endure…”

Her words pierced Jiao Yuan's heart like needles.

The pain in Jiaoyuan's eyes deepened, filled with helplessness and self-blame.

Bai Wanwan felt she had laid the groundwork enough, and finally said solemnly, "Father Beast, it is understandable that you love your females. But as the leader of the tribe, you must always remain rational and fair. Excessive favoritism and indulgence will not only harm the innocent, but may also bring irreparable disaster to the entire tribe."
