I am a Primitive Man

"Sleep… sleep?!"

This utterly unexpected answer left Han Cheng dumbfounded, his mind momentarily blank.

Sleep?

Don't you have a place to sleep?

Why come to my room to say you want to sleep?

You can't just accuse me out of nowhere…

Han Cheng instinctively crossed his arms over his chest, suddenly needing to defend his modesty. "Sleep?" After internal turmoil, Han Cheng looked at Xing and asked aloud to confirm that he hadn't misheard.

"Yeah, sleep." Xing nodded vigorously, her expression unchanged.

Han Cheng lamented inwardly.

What's going on? Why did Xing suddenly come to my room to talk about sleeping? Are primitive women so direct in pursuing men?

Looking at Xing, who was nearly an adult and a whole head taller than him, Han Cheng discreetly moved closer to the door, creating distance between himself and Xing.

Given their current physical strength and size, Han Cheng wouldn't be able to resist if Xing were to try anything.

Han Cheng had to prepare for the worst in advance to safeguard his chastity. After all, women at this time were highly straightforward.

"Why did you come here to sleep?" Han Cheng asked again, ensuring he could escape if things turned wrong.

"Shaman and the chief said… they wanted me to come… sleep," Xing replied, finally showing a hint of shyness.

Shaman and Chief were playing matchmaker?

Han Cheng didn't know how to express his feelings about this. These two guys suddenly thought of having someone warm his bed.

Even if they wanted to arrange something, they should have picked someone more slender. Having Xing come over… Han Cheng couldn't agree with their aesthetics.

Moreover, wasn't it said that in the tribe, one had to wait until adulthood to…? How come now that he's grown up, everything has changed?

"You should go back first. I don't need to… sleep with you…" Han Cheng hesitated momentarily before gritting his teeth and saying the somewhat embarrassing words.

It was strange. In modern times, as a single man, he had often fantasized about various romantic encounters. Even when he had nightmares about female ghosts at night, realizing that the ghost was a woman would turn the nightmare into a wet dream. But now, encountering someone who actively sought him out, he acted reserved.

Was there a big difference between fantasy and reality, or was Xing not as attractive as the white-clad female ghost from his dreams?

Of course, he couldn't say that out loud; it would be somewhat hurtful…

After hearing the shaman's words, Xing looked somewhat surprised. Instead of leaving as instructed, she stood there watching Han Cheng without moving.

This alerted Han Cheng, as he suddenly remembered some unwritten rules circulating within the tribe.

Not only men could choose a mate, but women also had the right to take the initiative.

In choosing a mate, if a woman fancied a man and the man didn't agree, the woman could still challenge the man, just as the man could challenge the woman.

"If the woman wins, the man must marry her, but if the man wins, it's another story."

In this situation, according to the rules, it seems that Xing can take action against Han Cheng.

Just thinking about the scene of being pinned down by Xing, Han Cheng couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

That image is too violent…

He quietly moved towards the door again, fully prepared to rush out and shout if things went wrong.

Han Cheng imagined the worst-case scenario, but thankfully, Xing, although eager to become Han Cheng's spouse, didn't dare to do anything violent to him.

After standing there for a while, Xing left disappointed.

Seeing Xing leave, Han Cheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, secretly happy for his chastity.

He then closed the door and headed towards the shaman's dwelling.

This matter must be clarified with this shameless primitive man, or else he'd be living in constant fear for his chastity, which wouldn't be pleasant.

Upon entering the shaman's room, Han Cheng didn't see him on the heated bed. Turning around, he found the shaman standing near the wall not far from the doorway, looking somewhat unnatural as he gazed at Han Cheng.

Han Cheng couldn't help but feel a mix of amusement and exasperation. This guy, shameless as ever, even learned to eavesdrop on conversations.

He didn't expect the Divine Child to come in suddenly. Unable to return to the heated bed in time, the shaman stood there looking awkwardly at Han Cheng for a while before forcing a smile.

"Shaman…"

After a simple greeting, Han Cheng asked why the shaman had considered finding him a spouse. The shaman then recounted his and the Eldest Senior Brother's plan.

Feeling touched yet somewhat helpless, Han Cheng couldn't help but sniffle. Was he so desperate for companionship?

He explained to the shaman that he wasn't interested in finding a spouse and expressed his desire to explore the surrounding areas.

The shaman was surprised and puzzled by Han Cheng's words. He couldn't understand why, when everything was fine in the tribe, Han Cheng suddenly wanted to venture out into the world.

Of course, Han Cheng didn't mention the idea of a plane suddenly flying over. Instead, he told the shaman that he wanted to search for things useful to the tribe but hadn't been discovered yet.

Initially, the shaman opposed Han Cheng's idea of going out because Han Cheng was still young and the outside world was too dangerous.

However, after hearing about the tribe's importance of the wall, bows, and slingshots and understanding the significance of Han Cheng's actions, the shaman finally agreed to let Han Cheng go but kept reminding him to be careful.

Then they called the Eldest Senior Brother, who hadn't gone to sleep yet and discussed the matter with him.

Compared to the shaman's cautiousness and reluctance to venture out, the Eldest Senior Brother appeared more ambitious and quickly agreed to Han Cheng's proposal.

This might be because the shaman was older and more conservative, while the Eldest Senior Brother was younger and more adventurous.

After the matter of exploring next year was settled, the Eldest Senior Brother asked Han Cheng for his opinion on finding a spouse. Upon learning that Han Cheng wasn't interested in Xing, Xiaomei, or Xiaoli, the Eldest Senior Brother nodded in approval, agreeing that these three weren't suitable for the divine and wise Han Cheng.

Seeing that the two of them didn't press him further about finding a spouse, Han Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.

But what the Eldest Senior Brother said next almost knocked Han Cheng off his feet.

After nodding in understanding, the Eldest Senior Brother immediately thumped his chest and made a promise to Han Cheng.

He said that when the time came, he would find a gorgeous woman to be the spouse of the great, wise, and irreplaceable Divine Child…

Han Cheng almost choked on his breath, coughing repeatedly while waving his hands.

Could he even stand a chance with the women the Eldest Senior Brother would choose based on his aesthetics?

With just one glance, his kidneys would fail!
