A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 185 Invitation to See the Bill
Xue Yinzhou frowned, but did not refuse. This was originally part of the beastman's job, and since the shift would change in three days, it didn't matter.

He opened the map and glanced at it. There was a sand and gravel mine five kilometers away. His cold gaze swept over the laborers who were squatting under a tree not far away, having eaten and rested. His indifferent voice had no inflection. "Pack your things and come with me."

The beastmen had little contact with Xue Yinzhou and were completely unfamiliar with this mysterious snake beastman. Moreover, Xue Yinzhou's aura was as cold and powerful as a glacier, radiating a terrifying chill that made them tremble with fear. They dared not approach him or speak to him, and for a time, no one dared to follow him.

Shen Tang noticed something amiss and sighed inwardly: This snake-beast has had little contact with normal people since it was a child, and has no idea how to get along with them.

So she clapped her hands with a smile and stepped forward to smooth things over, saying, "The preparation work before the start of construction is very arduous, and everyone has worked hard during this period. Starting today, wages will be settled daily, and those who do a good job will receive a bonus at the end of the month!"

Upon hearing this, the beastmen were immediately energized and, disregarding everything else, grabbed their tools and followed Xueyinzhou.

After everyone left, Xiao Jin was fully recovered, turned around and transformed into human form, excitedly rushing towards her.

Shen Tang took a step back, blocking his way with disgust. "You're covered in sweat, you're filthy! Go wash up right now! Otherwise, you're not stepping into the house today!"

Xiao Jin lowered his head and sniffed, a rare blush creeping onto his cool and handsome face. He would never have paid attention to such a small thing when he was alone, but now, fearing that the female would dislike him, he turned his head and saw a river not far away. Instantly, he transformed back into his beast form and darted into the river with a "splash!" splashing up a large spray of water.

Immediately afterwards, a wet, black leopard head emerged from the river and spat out a large mouthful of water.

Seeing his comical appearance, Shen Tang was both annoyed and amused: Silly leopard!
"Little Tang'er, the first batch of raw material mining work has been completed. I have detailed records on my end. Would you like to go and take a look?" Shen Li asked gently.

“Okay.” Shen Tang nodded.

Shen Li led her to the makeshift thatched hut.

The shed looks rather simple from the outside, but it's quite clean inside.

Shen Li is a beautiful fox with a very refined lifestyle; he even decorated an ordinary thatched hut to make it warm and cozy.

Windows were specially built with wooden strips in the sunny spot, and several pots of wildflowers were placed on the windowsill and in the corner, blooming elegantly and gracefully.

The tables, chairs, and beds were all covered with soft, clean cushions.

Especially upon entering, Shen Tang could smell a faint fragrance that soothed her mood, making her feel even more refined than she, a female!
Shen Tang sat in the chair, the cushion on the back of the chair still seemed to be tinged with Shen Li's alluring fragrance, which seeped into her nostrils and made her head feel a little dizzy.

Shen Li brought over a huge pile of account books, which completely covered his face.

thump—

put it on the table.

The wooden table trembled.

Shen Tang quickly got up and hugged the mountain of account books, almost dropping a few. She was shocked, "There are so many?"

"The amount of timber, iron ore, and sand mined, as well as the time and manpower for each shipment, are all recorded in detail. Oh, and the wages of the beastmen are also recorded. Some people might slack off halfway through the journey, doing half a day's work as a full day's work, and I record that too... There are also some miscellaneous things that can't be taken lightly, so they all need to be recorded in the register," Shen Li explained earnestly.

Shen Tang originally thought that sending Shen Li to keep accounts would be an easy task, but she didn't expect it to be so hard. She had only flipped through half of the account book when she felt dizzy and yawned.

Seeing Shen Tang's tired appearance, Shen Li let out a low chuckle.

He stepped forward, embraced Shen Tang, turned around and sat down in a chair, positioning her facing him as she sat on his long, muscular lap.

Shen Tang was startled by Shen Li's sudden action, her pretty face flushed slightly, and she subconsciously tried to get off him, but Shen Li held her tightly around the waist and pressed her into his arms.

The fluffy, bushy fox tail swayed and gently brushed against her cheek, like some kind of teasing.

Shen Li leaned close to her ear and chuckled, "Little Tang'er is truly a hardworking prince, but unfortunately there are many bills; we won't be able to finish looking at them all in a short time." His deep, alluring voice was soft and ethereal, filled with tender affection.

"...No need to rush. Take it home tonight, and we can study it late into the night. There will be plenty of time to read it carefully."

The alluring and seductive voice made Shen Tang's ears burn red.

She wasn't an innocent little girl, so she naturally understood the cunning fox's implied meaning.

Considering that they had only made love once since they officially became a couple, it seemed that the fox couldn't hold back any longer.

"Well, let's look at the ledger first, and we'll talk about it tonight!" There were still many orcs working back and forth outside the shed, and anyone with a discerning eye could see the two of them in such an intimate pose through the window.

Shen Tang didn't want to be pinned down on the bed and forced to do something by Shen Li right now.

If this were seen by outsiders, Her Highness would no longer be able to stay in the city!
"Little Tang'er, you must remember your promise to come to my room tonight, and your brother Li will teach you how to read the account books properly." Shen Li's long, bright fox eyes curved into beautiful crescents, and his slender hand gently pinched the soft flesh on her waist.

The excitement sent shivers down her spine. She quickly climbed off his lap, grabbed a ledger, and opened it to block the man's amusement.

Shen Li chuckled and reminded her, "Little Tang'er, that's not how you read the ledger. You've got it upside down."

Shen Tang hurriedly turned the ledger over to look at it, only to find that it was actually reversed.

She immediately realized that this cunning fox was deliberately teasing her, her face turned even redder, she glared at him fiercely, quickly picked up the ledger, and focused intently on reading it.

Her mind was filled with erotic images, making her mouth dry and unable to concentrate on reading a single word.

"Tangtang, I'm back!"

Before he could finish looking at one of the ledgers, Xiao Jin's urgent voice came from outside the door.

He burst through the wooden door, completely clean from head to toe.

He ran around outside several times, shaking off all the water and drying himself off, exuding a refreshing aura.

The black panther was huge and powerful. Once he squeezed into the house, he filled almost half of the narrow thatched hut, knocking over several flowerpots.

Shen Li's brow twitched slightly upon seeing this, and he wished he could chase the dead leopard away.

Xiao Jin barged in carelessly, completely oblivious to these details. He ran straight to Shen Tang, nuzzled her leg with his head, and said impatiently, "There's no point in staying in this lousy place. Come on, let's go back! I'll carry you!"

Shen Tang felt ticklish from the black panther's rubbing against her, so she stroked its soft fur, went outside, and climbed onto its back.

Xiao Jin carried her on his back and sped away excitedly.

The scenery moved rapidly backward, and in the blink of an eye, the quarry became a black dot.

Shen Tang had no choice but to hug Xiao Jin's neck, bury her face in his fur, and smell the sun-baked cat fur, which actually smelled quite nice.

Xiao Jin noticed her little movements and became even more excited, running even faster.

Seeing that the two had disappeared in the blink of an eye, Shen Li shook his head, put the ledger into his light brain space, then summoned a shrewd-looking orc, gave him a few instructions, and then transformed into his beast form to follow them.
