[Beast-world farming story, 1v1 pure romance]
Yun Jiang, an all-around academic genius from the modern world, opens her eyes to find herself branded a “spy” and awaiting sacrifice in a black panther tribe.
The tribe’s dried meat is moldy, and the shaman wants to sacrifice her to the mountain god. Calmly, she holds out rock salt. “Sprinkle this on it, and it’ll keep for three months.”
Their stone pots keep cracking while they cook, so she mixes straw into the clay and fires pottery. “Now you can boil meat without the pots exploding.”
The tribe hunts but still can’t get enough to eat, so she points to some wild rice. “Plant this, and there’ll be plenty.”
Cang Jin, the black panther chief, goes from watching her coldly to becoming her number-one supporter.
When she teaches them to weave, he guards the workshop and drives off anyone who covets her.
When she starts trading, he carries a stone axe and acts as her personal bodyguard.
When she proposes making currency, he engraves her name on the largest meteorite coin.
Yun Jiang only meant to use her knowledge to lift the tribe out of poverty. She never expected to win herself a chief with off-the-charts combat skills.
Cang Jin pulls her into his arms, his tail wrapped firmly around her waist. “Your knowledge in exchange for a lifetime of my protection. Is that enough?”
