He should just accept it happily.
Qiong Xing thought that, but decided not to say it, if he did, Joa would probably sulk.
"So he also told us not to interfere too much even if you were doting on Qiong Xing."
Fei apparently laughed and said that it was simply Joa's own way of seeking affection, since he wasn't good at relying on others.
"Fei is a good person, isn't he?"
"That guy's no good."
"That's as far as it goes, got it."
It was meant as nothing more than a straightforward compliment, but perhaps they thought he was trying to make Fei a mate as well, because they told him in no uncertain terms that it was absolutely not allowed.
Why would they think that…
It was true that he liked Fei, but that was purely in a friendly sense, with no romantic feelings mixed in.
If he had to compare it to something, Fei was like the kind older brother next door.
"There's no way that would happen, right? If I increased the number of beastman mates any more, my body would break down."
