I Became The Chief Of A Primitive Village

Chapter 903, Eating Orange Peel

Translator: Silavin

A cold, clear moon hung high in the sky, surrounded by densely twinkling stars.

The Flame Dragon Tribe was once again shrouded in the night’s darkness, though everyone no longer felt afraid.

Previously, nighttime seemed dangerous to them. They would be frightening. But currently, nights showed little difference from daytime.

The primary reason remained the presence of small contained flames all around, making everyone feel extraordinarily secure.

Su Bai appreciated the night scenery through the floor-to-ceiling windows, then returned to his position, lifting a tea cup and sipping.

“Shaman, those two intelligence agents have checked into our Tribe. Tonight, they’ll be staying at the Restful Night Building,” Ga reported seriously.

The scorpion girl had been secretly observing those people throughout the day, never revealing herself. She wanted to observe these two people’s reactions, and understand their psychology thoroughly before proceeding.

“Have you arranged the people I asked you to prepare in advance?” Su Bai asked after sipping tea.

“Everything’s been completely arranged. They’re continuously following… following the script.” Ga spoke those tongue-twisting words, ‘continuously following’. “Shaman, rest assured, they’re continuously moving within our trap. No errors will occur.”

The scorpion girl now spoke the Shaman title extremely naturally, unlike the previous awkwardness. After all, she had previously belonged to another Tribe. Suddenly transferring to another Tribe, addressing another person as Shaman… internally, this felt a little strange though she too felt comfortable at the same time.

However, the longer she remained in the Flame Dragon Tribe, the deeper her understanding of this Tribe grew. Ga had already deeply fallen in love with this Tribe, beginning to decide to fight desperately for this Tribe. Naturally, the title became increasingly great to say.

“Excellent. You’ve been exhausted all day today. Go rest properly. Tomorrow will keep you equally busy,” Su Bai said warmly.

He maintained no vigilance toward the scorpion girl, knowing the Flame Dragon Tribe’s complete capabilities would convince her thoroughly.

Such a powerful and capable assistant. If she could become part of the Flame Dragon Tribe’s strength, naturally this would be a tremendous boon to the Tribe.

“Shaman, I have something I want to ask you. I wonder if it might seem somewhat abrupt?” Ga couldn’t help gathering courage.

Su Bai stopped organizing today’s illustrated diagrams, looking questioningly at her face.

What he saw was an extremely cold, beautiful, yet serious face. Maintaining a curious mentality, he gently nodded.

“Thank… thank you, Shaman.” Ga again spoke a word she’d never heard previously, continuing to ask. “I wonder why you trust me?”

“Didn’t you already ask this question before? Why ask again now?” Su Bai thought it might be some other question. Unexpectedly, it was that clichéd scenario again.

He originally believed these clichéd scenarios only appeared on television. He never expected real people would actually behave this way.

“It’s different. This time, the mentality differs. Shaman, you directly lent me the Yong’an Building. When… when did you begin trusting me so much?” Ga’s cold, beautiful face showed no expression changes. The only variation came from moonlight streaming through the window, creating shifting light patterns.

“Because I believe you can bring excellent benefits to the Flame Dragon Tribe, and can bring better developmental opportunities to the Tribe.” Su Bai was equally direct. After all, currently there was nothing worth concealing. Smiling, he said. “You’re already a member of the Flame Dragon Tribe, aren’t you? Since you can bring benefits to the Tribe, what reason would I have to decline?”

“…” Ga’s heart was instantly struck. Her green eyes continuously flickered.

Her cold face finally showed expression changes, slightly biting her lip and asking: “Shaman, have I truly become a member of the Flame Dragon Tribe?”

What struck the scorpion girl’s heart was precisely that statement, ‘You’re already a member of the Flame Dragon Tribe.’

“Naturally. From the moment I allowed you to join the Flame Dragon Tribe, you’ve already become a member of the Flame Dragon Tribe.” Su Bai displayed an innocent appearance, conversely asking. “Don’t you think so yourself? Have you been excluding yourself the whole time?”

At this moment, counterattacking was the best choice, pushing responsibility onto the other party and having them provide the best explanation to convince themselves.

“No, no! I’ve always considered myself a member of the Flame Dragon Tribe. Only… only I didn’t know how you all thought about it.” Ga’s speech suddenly increased considerably. Her tone’s variations also became more diverse, no longer the previous icy tone.

“Hahaha…” Su Bai laughed heartily, picking up a fruit from the plate and tossing it over. Continuing, he said. “Since you’re here, settle comfortably. Properly enjoy everything the Flame Dragon Tribe offers!”

“Since… I’m here… settle comfortably.” Ga heard another unfamiliar vocabulary phrase, nodding. “Shaman, you are really different from others.”

“If everyone in the world were the same, wouldn’t that be terrifying? I think being different from others is quite good.” Su Bai shrugged, lowering his head and beginning to peel an orange.

Ga stared at the orange in her hand, momentarily dazed. This was her first time seeing such a fruit.

Before even lifting it for detailed observation, she already detected a faint fruity fragrance. This scent was genuinely captivating.

Ga could not help watching Su Bai’s every movement, no longer wanting to explain her previous statement.

What she actually wanted to express was that this Shaman differed completely from other Tribes’ Shamans. Though reconsidering, naturally, no two people could be the same.

However, the reason she did not continue talking was the oranges in her hand and Su Bai’s hand.

That orange emitted a faint, refreshing fragrance. After peeling, its scent became even more captivating.

She originally did not want to try it, but was genuinely deeply attracted by this aroma. Moreover, she roughly understood that only Flame Dragon Tribe members possessed such oranges.

“Try it. The flavour will most likely surprise you, in a good way of course.” Su Bai had already plucked a segment and begun eating.

Sometimes after dinner, he enjoyed eating some fruit. This was purely for digestive purposes, not because he was still hungry.

“Shaman, this flavour is very special.” Ga similarly began peeling the orange in demonstration style.

“Special? You’re the first person to describe oranges this way. Doesn’t this orange taste good?” Su Bai asked knowingly.

The reason for asking knowingly was because she had completely finished the entire orange, even consuming the orange peel.

Su Bai originally wanted to prevent this, but orange peel was fundamentally edible anyway, despite being known to be insanely bitter.

So, he swallowed the words he had nearly spoken, truly seeing her eating with such satisfaction, saying anything else seemed inappropriate.

However, he was still unable to suppress the amusement he felt. After all, she had already peeled the orange, yet ultimately consumed the peel anyway.

“Is something wrong, Shaman?” Ga clearly remained oblivious to the situation.

“Nothing. Just eat more.” Su Bai smiled and shook his head.
