Clumsy Beast, Keep Your Paws Off novel Chapter 510

Chapter 510: Chapter 510: A Dangerous Proposal

Rong Yanchen only smiled, the curve of his lips slow and confident. Without saying anything further, he raised his hand and waved lightly in the air.

At once, several fox beastmen stepped forward from the shadows. Their movements were quiet and disciplined, each of them carrying something in their hands.

One by one, they approached and placed the items neatly in front of Mo Qingli and Wang Mulan.

Soon, the empty space between them was completely filled.

There were bundles of rare beast hides, thick and soft to the touch.

Among them was even precious white mink fur, smooth as water and incredibly difficult to obtain in the beast world.

Beside them lay slabs of smoked meat, carefully preserved, their rich scent spreading faintly through the hall.

Then came two small stone containers. One held bright orange crystals that glowed faintly under the torchlight, while the other contained fine, rare salt... enough to feed an entire tribe for a year.

After that, more items followed... fruits, grains, even rice. Each one was valuable in its own way. Together, they formed a display of wealth that few could ignore.

The hall fell silent.

Rong Yanchen observed their reactions calmly before bringing his hands together in a soft clap.

"If the City Lord can see my sincerity," he said smoothly, "then I hope you will allow me to take my mate back to where she belongs."

As he spoke, his gaze shifted toward Wang Mulan.

"These are merely small gifts," he added, his tone respectful yet carrying an unhidden sharpness, "for the beautiful mother of my mate."

There was a faint smile in his eyes... polite on the surface, but clearly calculating underneath.

He paused briefly before continuing, "There are also twenty powerful beasts outside, hunted specially as tribute for my female. I did not bring them in, fearing they might dirty the City Lord’s residence."

His words sounded courteous, yet every sentence landed heavily.

Wang Mulan’s expression changed instantly.

Her fingers tightened against her robes, and the warmth from earlier vanished completely.

Anger rose in her chest uncontrollably.

What was this supposed to mean?

Was he offering gifts... or placing a price on her daughter?

Her gaze turned cold.

If her daughter did not agree, then no one, no matter how powerful, would be allowed to take her away.

Beside her, Mo Qingli remained seated, his posture relaxed but his eyes deep and unreadable.

He looked at Rong Yanchen steadily, saying nothing, yet the displeasure in his gaze was unmistakable.

Rong Yanchen noticed everything and still, he smiled.

As if their reactions were nothing more than something mildly amusing.

He casually brushed an invisible speck of dust from his robe before speaking again, his tone as relaxed as ever.

"I will stay here for one day. You may prepare my mate. Tomorrow, we will depart with her."

There was no question in his words... only decision.

Without waiting for a response, he turned and walked away.

Just like that.

The hall remained silent long after he left.

Wang Mulan and Mo Qingli sat there, momentarily stunned. They had not even agreed, yet the man had already decided everything on his own.

Outside, Rong Yanchen walked through the streets of the Dragon Beast City at an unhurried pace. His violet eyes moved lazily over his surroundings, taking in everything.

But he forced himself to calm down. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
