Clumsy Beast, Keep Your Paws Off novel Chapter 489

Chapter 489: Chapter 489: Unwelcome Guests

Just as everyone was enjoying the meal and the cheerful atmosphere, the sound of several footsteps approached from the distant open space.

All the males around Su Qinglan suddenly stiffened. Their bodies tensed, ears perked up, and tails stopped moving.

In this primitive world, their wooden hut and the surrounding area were their personal territory.

No other male would dare enter without permission, especially when their female was present. It was an unwritten rule.

Xuan Long’s eyes almost turned red with warning. Rong Ye’s fox ears stood straight. Hu Yan let out a low growl. Shi Feng and Han Jue also looked alert, ready to protect their family.

Su Qinglan looked up curiously. A group of five or six male beastmen from the Dragon Beast City walked over.

They stopped at a respectful distance but their eyes kept glancing at the empty bowls and the remains of the food on the beast hide mat.

One of the males, who seemed to be the leader, spoke politely but with clear expectation.

"We smelled the delicious aroma from afar. Since you are new here, we came to greet you and see if there is any leftover food to share. Teaching new families our ways is also our duty."

Su Qinglan blinked. She understood they wanted to "learn" by eating the food. She looked at the completely cleaned-out bowls and turned to Hu Yan.

"If they want to learn, we are willing to teach them next time. But right now, we don’t have any food left. We have already eaten everything."

Hu Yan nodded firmly. He stood up a little and replied in a steady voice, "Yes. The food is finished. We cannot share what is not there."

The visiting males’ faces changed. Their expressions turned unhappy and angry, as if they had been wronged.

They muttered among themselves, frowning deeply, but they could not force the issue.

After a few more dissatisfied glances at the empty pots, they turned and left with heavy steps.

Su Qinglan watched them go and muttered softly, "What kind of attitude is that? We don’t have any obligation to feed them. Why are they making such faces?"

Hu Yan sat back down and spoke gently to her.

"Lan Lan, don’t worry. There are many types like this. Most importantly, while you were asleep for the entire week, we noticed something. The people of the Dragon Beast City look down on us newcomers who came from nowhere. They are not very welcoming toward us."

Rong Ye added with a smirk, "Especially since we have a beautiful and rare female like you, Lan Lan. Some of them are jealous and want to test us."

Xuan Long’s eyes were still cold as he stared in the direction the males had left. "If they come again with bad intentions, I will teach them properly." 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Shi Feng nodded quietly, while Han Jue began collecting the empty bowls, his face calm but serious.
