Chapter 578 Leniency for confession
The news of Hua Han's return spread like wildfire.

Those pretty young females who had once admired him all dressed up carefully, wearing the most colorful feather skirts and the most dazzling seashell necklaces. Like a group of flamboyant butterflies, they couldn't wait to gather near the stone house where Hua Han, Bai Wanwan, and the others lived, craning their necks and chattering excitedly.

After Hua Han finished speaking with the father and mother beasts, he heard the sounds outside and felt a chill run down his spine, thinking: Oh no, he hasn't even told Wanwan about this yet.

"Brother Hua Han! Brother Hua Han, are you inside?"

We heard you're awake! Are you feeling better?

"Hua Han, do you think my newly made flower wreath looks pretty?"

The little females chattered excitedly, calling out Hua Han's name, their voices filled with undisguised admiration and joy.

One of the bolder ones even tossed a bunch of freshly picked, dew-kissed wildflowers through the window, where they landed right at Hua Han's feet.

The sudden commotion startled Hua Han, and his expression changed drastically. Almost reflexively, he immediately turned to look at Bai Wanwan beside him, his eyes filled with obvious tension and a hint of panic.

He instinctively tried to get up, wanting to explain something to Bai Wanwan, his lips moving as he said, "Wanwan, they... I..."

Bai Wanwan was tidying up a piece of animal hide when she heard the noise. She raised her eyes and calmly glanced at the young females outside the window, their faces full of youthful energy and anticipation, before her gaze returned to Hua Han's handsome face, which was filled with anxiety.

Her face was expressionless, neither angry nor smiling. She just stared at him quietly, making Hua Han feel increasingly uneasy and restless.

Rather than waiting for her to settle scores later, it's better to confess proactively and try to get leniency!

He gritted his teeth and said, "Hit me, scold me!"

Hua Han's female mother and father beasts had already gone out first to stop the little females who were trying to enter the house.

The sound of their conversation could be heard outside; most of them were pulling Hua Yu aside to ask about Hua Han, eager to come in and see him.

However, the atmosphere inside the room was very strange.

"Tell me, why did I hit you or yell at you?"

Seeing his guilty look, Bai Wanwan began to feel uneasy. Could he have really been a jerk before?
Hua Han forced a smile, her tone filled with regret: "It was my fault before... I was young and ignorant, I didn't know my place, and I didn't keep a proper distance from the females in the tribe..."

His voice trailed off as he spoke, and he glanced at her cautiously.

Bai Wanwan looked at him calmly, her eyes clear and unfathomable.

"Oh? Then tell me," her voice was unreadable, as if she were discussing the weather, "what exactly did you do that was so 'out of line' that those little females are so... obsessed with you?"

Hua Han's heart was pounding with anxiety. He felt like a prisoner being pushed onto the dock, about to face the judgment of fate.

Tell a lie? He wouldn't dare; Wanwan is too smart, she could see through it at a glance.

"I..." Hua Han's eyes darted around, her ears turning red with guilt. "When I was free in the tribe, if I saw the females carrying things or encountering some minor trouble, I would... I would lend a hand. Sometimes... sometimes when I saw them wearing new dresses or new jewelry, I would... I would casually compliment them..."

After he finished speaking, he quickly glanced at Bai Wanwan's face. Seeing that she still had no expression, he panicked even more and hurriedly raised his hand as if to swear, adding, "Really! That's it! There's really nothing else. I swear!" He knew that even so, his image in Wanwan's heart might plummet.

He was filled with regret. If he had known he would meet Wanwan and that he would like her so much, he would have kept his distance from females from birth.

After hearing his "confession," Bai Wanwan remained silent for a few seconds.

Just as Hua Han was so nervous that her palms were almost sweating, she suddenly let out a soft breath, and a very faint, almost imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"That's it?" she asked rhetorically, her tone seemingly...with a hint of relief?
Hua Han was stunned for a moment, then nodded vigorously: "Wanwan, can you forgive me? I will only be good to you and only praise you from now on."

"Alright," Bai Wanwan finally looked at him properly, the thin layer of ice in her eyes seemed to melt a little, with a hint of helplessness and a bit of amusement, "I thought you had done something earth-shattering."

It turns out it was just harmless showing off and sweet talk, like a male peacock in puberty displaying its tail feathers.

She had seen how enthusiastic the young females were before, and she had all sorts of guesses in her mind, even preparing herself to hear more "extraordinary" experiences.

Hua Han keenly noticed the subtle changes in Bai Wanwan's tone and expression. Was Wanwan not angry?

The heart that had been hanging in mid-air finally fell back into his stomach with a "thump". Although he was still shaken, he knew at least that he seemed to have... barely gotten over this hurdle.
He seized the opportunity to lean forward and tentatively put his arm around her waist, "Bend down..."

He buried his face in her neck, inhaling her pleasant scent.

"While you're still lucid, talk to your female mother and father beasts more."

Hua Han nodded, deeply moved, and secretly vowed: From now on, I will stay far away from all females! I will never look at them again!
At this moment, the outside finally became quiet.

Hua Yu breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and went back into the house, looking at Bai Wanwan with a slightly apologetic expression: "Wanwan, don't take it to heart, these little females are just spoiled, they don't have any bad intentions..."

“Mother, it’s alright, Hua Han has already told me.”

Seeing that she wasn't angry, Hua Yu felt half relieved, but the other half of her anxiety remained.

The males around Wanwan are all quite formidable. Although her own male is also excellent, what if he loses favor because of these old grievances?
So, she took Bai Wanwan's hand and spoke even more tenderly about her son, saying, "Wanwan, I've never seen my son care about a female so much. His heart belongs entirely to you."

Bai Wanwan smiled and nodded, indicating that she understood.

"Mother, you two sit for a while and have a good talk with Hua Han. I've been sitting for too long, I'm going out for a walk."

"Okay, don't tire yourself out."

Hua Yu gave her a word of advice and watched her walk out of the stone house.

As soon as she left, Hua Yu turned to her male offspring with a stern face and said, “You naughty boy, your female mother told you to listen to her years ago, but you just wouldn’t listen. Luckily, you’ve met a wife with a broad mind. If it were another female who held a grudge about your past, your future would be difficult.”

Hua Han also learned his lesson, "Mother, I understand. I will treat my wife even better from now on!"
