“Xie Cheng, will you be my female?”

Geno held the man tightly in his arms and said with a low voice. He greedily sniffed Xie Cheng’s scent, and his strong heartbeat thumped out from his strong chest.

“…Calm down, I told you many times that I am not a female, understand?”

Xie Cheng, who had reacted, also became nervous. He struggled for a while but failed to break free. He wanted to get angry but was afraid of angering Geno. He had seen Geno’s skills. Although he had never seen this beastman fight with others head-on, it must be amazing to be able to rescue him from the crater, right? The dragon claw alone could kill him a hundred times.

“Xie Cheng, be my partner, okay?”

Geno knew that the word female was a minefield for Xie Cheng, so he changed his method and spoke in a low and affectionate tone.

 “I…”

I am a man. Xie Cheng wanted to refute loudly, but thought that it would be useless even if he said it. There is no concept of men and women in this world, only the distinction between male and female. He cannot transform, and in the eyes of Geno and all male beastmen, he is a female.

“I don’t regard you as a female. You stay with me and let me take good care of you, okay?”

Geno said again, tightening his arms again.

“Uh, cough cough… do you want to strangle me to death, let go first…”

Xie Cheng reached out and hit his broad back a few times. This savage beastman strangled his waist and ribs to the point of breaking. It was very uncomfortable to hold his breath in his chest.

“I’m sorry, I was too strong…”

Geno let him go, and his chest heaving violently. He looked at Xie Cheng with a flushed face, and wanted to hug him harder.

“I say, you are not in estrus, are you?”

Xie Cheng patted his chest and swallowed a few times. Since he was a beastman, he had estrus with animal nature. He wouldn’t be so unlucky to run into Geno’s estrus.

“No, no… I don’t want to be with you because I’m in estrus. I… I just want to be with you. I’ve been here alone for so long. Xie Cheng, you are the only one who is willing to treat me well and get close to me, so… I think, can I get closer to you? I’ll be happy if you sleep next to me… I-I like you…”

Geno waved his hand awkwardly to deny it, and when he said he liked him, he actually lowered his head shyly.

 Xie Cheng couldn’t help but twitch his eyes after being confessed to. He felt a little sorry for Geno’s incoherent, innocent and anxious look, but he refused for his personal safety:

“Besides sleeping with you, I can still consider accepting other things. I will continue to cook for you. You just need to protect me in this area. We will trade fairly.”

Xie Cheng spread his hands and stepped back a few steps to ensure a safe distance. He deliberately avoided the topic of liking. He pretended to be stupid. They are different species. What’s the point of talking about love?

Just now, Xie Cheng clearly felt Geno’s fleeting possessiveness and recognized a fact. Here, no matter how he explained, he was a female in Geno’s eyes. An ownerless female was still attractive to a male.

If his feeling was right, Geno clearly had improper thoughts about him, so for the sake of safety, it would be better not to take risks. He should not have been so nice to the big guy.

 “…Okay…”

After a long silence, Xie Cheng felt a little embarrassed. The big guy opposite nodded disappointedly and said two words, then bent down to pick up the materials on the ground to build a house for him.

Xie Cheng pouted and wanted to say something but felt it was unnecessary. After all, he was not a female. If he was, a male like Geno would be very good. He was strong and considerate, tall and good-looking, and silly and cute… Definitely a good choice.
