A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 139 System Shop Opens (Bonus Chapter for Donations)

As he spoke, Shen Li's long, slender, jade-like fingertips gently traced her cheek, his voice soft and alluring.
"It's good that no one is bothering us..."

Shen Tang was exhausted today and didn't want to fight him again.

Her face flushed, and she stammered, "Not today, I need to sleep. I have important things to do tomorrow!"

Shen Li gently pinched the tip of her nose, his smile meaningful. "Hehe~ What are you thinking? I'm not like someone who sneaks over at night to do bad things."

Shen Tang blushed even more after being subtly criticized.

Isn't that sly fox also absolutely smitten? Otherwise, why would he come over to her late at night to discuss recipes?

"Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore. You've been so tired all day, let me help you relax your muscles, otherwise you'll have a sore back and legs again when you go to the fields tomorrow." Shen Li's voice was gentle and intoxicating as he lifted her calf and placed it on his leg.

Shen Tang realized she had misunderstood and felt even more embarrassed.

No, it's all that cunning fox's fault, deliberately leading her to think in that direction!

Seeing her blushing and shy expression, Shen Li's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, but he didn't do much, only rubbing Shen Tang's shoulders and legs.

The massage was so gentle that she felt so comfortable she wanted to snore.

Shen Tang was already very tired, and after being rubbed by Shen Li, she quickly fell into a deep sleep.

Hearing Shen Tang's even breathing, Shen Li stopped what she was doing and looked up at her.

I don’t know how long I watched it.

He lay on the bed fully clothed and gently pulled the person into his arms.

The tenderness in Shen Li's eyes vanished, replaced by a deep, scrutinizing gaze. His slender fingertips gently traced her neck, as softly as feathers.

"I'm also very curious about... your secret."

Shen Tang woke up feeling refreshed.

When I woke up, I saw a handsome fox-like man lying next to me, his clothes half-undone.

She felt refreshed and invigorated.

After washing up and eating, Shen Li accompanied Shen Tang to the fields to distribute the food they had prepared the day before to the orcs who were working.

When the beastmen first saw this strange food, their expressions varied, and none of them dared to eat it.

Hu Yunyong took the lead and stuffed the meat pie into his mouth.

The next second, his eyes lit up, and he exclaimed sincerely, "It's so delicious, Master... Sister Tang, is this really made from the wheat flour we ground a couple of days ago?"

"Yes, everyone hasn't had lunch yet, right? Come and have a taste," Shen Tang said with a smile.

Everyone present saw Hu Yun wolfing down his food, grabbing the pancakes and meat buns and stuffing them into their mouths, lest they be eaten up before they could.

They also picked up the food and began to taste it.

I was instantly amazed by how delicious it was; it tasted even better than raw meat and far surpassed nutritional supplements!

Most importantly, the food was not only delicious and filling, but it also made them feel much more relaxed, and they slept soundly when they got home that night.

It should be noted that most orcs suffer from mental mania.

As the contaminated area expands, the pollution levels in their bodies also gradually increase.

The frequency and severity of manic outbursts among the Imperial Orcs have been increasing year by year.

Not to mention, these prisoners almost never had female partners to comfort them, and they were often involved in combat, so their mental mania levels were very high, and they couldn't sleep at night.

But that night, they actually fell asleep for the first time ever, and slept very soundly.

Sleeping until daytime was something unthinkable in the past! After talking among themselves, the beastmen realized that they weren't the only ones who had this experience. All the beastmen who had eaten Shen Tang's food the day before had slept soundly the night before.

Some people even underwent testing and found that the levels of pollution in their bodies had decreased.

The food that Shen Tang gave them could actually reduce the pollution level!
When the news reached the city, it immediately caused an uproar.

Even the city lord came from far and wide to personally taste the food prepared by Shen Tang. After testing with instruments, he found that the pollution levels in his body had indeed decreased!

Shen Tang and Lu Xiao prepared a lot of food and invited the people of the city to taste it for free.

The people in the city had mixed feelings.

They had all seen what Shen Tang had done these past few days.

As the saying goes, seeing is believing, hearing is deceiving. People are always changing, and we cannot condemn a person forever because of the evil they have done in the past.

If she is truly repentant, why not give her a chance?
It is true that Shen Tang committed many evil deeds in the past, but the military court also sentenced her for the crimes she deserved.

She also paid the price for her past evil deeds.

She is now trying her best to make amends—adopting stray cubs in the city, rescuing the city lord's wife, and helping to treat the seriously injured beastmen in the city. As a female, she even works in the fields every day. Now she is leading the beastmen to make this kind of food that can reduce the body's pollution level.

In the past, some orcs even suspected that Shen Tang was faking it.

Can a person pretend for a day, a month, a year... a lifetime?
So what if she was faking it?

Shen Tang genuinely helped the people live better and better lives, and was a good orc who dedicated himself to Green Field City.

They saw Shen Tang's sincerity.

Dwelling on the past only makes them seem petty and calculating.

The last trace of resentment the people had for Shen Tang completely disappeared.

The orc who had secretly cursed her back then now took the initiative to apologize.
"Shen Tang, we were wrong before. We shouldn't have used such harsh words and even tried to drive you out of the city!"

"Yes, most of us have only heard rumors about you and have never even met you. It's really wrong of us to have such a lot of malice towards you just because we've heard those gossips."

"The evil things you did back then can't be undone, so let them go. People should look forward."

"Besides, you were young back then, and perhaps you were seduced. Now that you have sincerely repented, everyone is very happy, and we are all willing to accept you as a member of the city!"

City Lord Shi Ye was also filled with relief at this moment, thankful that he had kept Shen Tang and his group there.

Looking at it now, this is no King Yama, but a living bodhisattva who came to save people from suffering!
You know, even with so many research institutes in the empire, no one has been able to develop a medicine that can effectively reduce the pollution levels in the bodies of orcs. I never expected that the food made from the grass that Shen Tang grew would have such a good effect!
The city lord was initially puzzled and felt that Shen Tang was wasting her time, but because she was his benefactor, he didn't say much.

At this moment, he wished he could personally lead a team out of the city to cultivate several hundred more acres of land.

Plant it! Plant it hard on him!
Shi Ye could imagine how shocked the empire would be once an industry chain was formed.

Hearing the cheers and praises of the beastmen, Shen Tang felt both happy and slightly bittersweet. Her efforts over the past few days had not been in vain; she had finally changed the people's perception of her.

A pleasantly surprised notification sounded in my mind.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the hidden mission: Winning Hearts and Minds (3). Reward: System Shop!]

Shen Tang's eyes lit up. A shopping mall? Why did that damn system only bring this out now!

Her curiosity was piqued, so after returning home, she opened the system store to see what good things were available.
