Clumsy Beast, Keep Your Paws Off novel Chapter 70

Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Something happened in the Tribe

Back in the cave, Su Qinglan decided to teach Hu Yan how to handle the salmon. She showed him how to cut it into clean and even pieces.

"Like this," she said. "Hold it steady, cut through the bones, and separate the fillets."

Hu Yan followed every step carefully, keeping his distance so that she wouldn’t feel uncomfortable. She watched him closely, making sure he did it right.

Once the fish was cut, Su Qinglan guided him through the cooking process.

"First, clean the fish thoroughly. Remove the scales and the inner parts. Then rinse it with cold water. After that, heat some fat in a stone pan. Fry some onions lightly. Put the salmon in, and cook on medium heat. Flip it carefully after a few minutes. Add a little salt, some herbs she has made, and an orange, which could work for a lemon.

"Cover with a stone plate and let it cook fully for some time. Make sure it’s fully cooked. Then take it off the heat and let it rest for a few minutes before eating."

Hu Yan followed every instruction, feeling both nervous and excited. A good aroma slowly filled the cave. The smell was delicious, warm, and tempting.

Su Qinglan’s stomach rumbled at the aroma. She couldn’t help but sniff it again and again, feeling her mouth water.

Hu Yan saw her expression and grinned. Yes! She’s tempted! My cooking is working!

This was the first time Hu Yan had cooked by himself. Usually, Su Qinglan did all the work, and he only helped a little. But now, with her pregnant, he wouldn’t allow her to cook anything that could hurt her.

And the excitement in his chest grew. He wanted Su Qinglan to taste it, to see if he had done it right.

Finally, when the salmon was done, Su Qinglan helped him plate it. She took a careful bite and smiled.

"It’s... really good," she said softly, giving him a bright look.

Hu Yan’s chest swelled with pride. I did it! I really cooked it! And she likes it!

Even Stove outside smelled the delicious scent and ran straight towards the cave.

Rong Ye and Stove appeared in front of Su Qinglan at the same time with hungry expressions. Their mouths opened wide, ready to eat. Both of them mirrored the same look... pure excitement and hunger.

Su Qinglan laughed softly. She looked at Stove first and said, "Here, Stove. Try this first."

Stove’s eyes lit up, and he happily munched on the salmon. His leaves swayed a little, and a delighted little purr escaped him. Su Qinglan smiled at his expression. This plant was really like a companion.

In the past, she had never let out her ability like this. After using them, they would always disappear. So did something change this time?

When it had appeared for the first time, she had only used it to distract Han Jue and had thought just like that it would also disappear, but it persisted.

Then she turned to Rong Ye. "And you... you can have some too."

Rong Ye froze. "Wait! Why him first? We arrived together! Why does he get to eat before me?"

He looked at Stove, glaring fiercely, his jealousy practically radiating.
