Nightmare

"Not hungry? That makes sense. We just had breakfast not long ago, how could we be hungry?"

The fluffy creature asked to play with her, and how could Alina, who was working, possibly refuse?

"Let's go."

His eyes lit up: She agreed.

The tiger's whip-like tail swung wildly behind it with glee, but lessened its force as it approached Alina.

Alina didn't pay attention when she was first brushed by the tiger's tail, until the second and third time...

Alina suddenly stopped, looked at the points panel in her mind, and then her gaze fell on the big tiger in front of her and the other furry creatures not far behind her.

Even a small mosquito bite is still meat. The little cutie doesn't know how many days she'll be gone; she can't just stay without earning anything. Not to mention she's consuming 10 points worth of painkillers every day.

Therefore, Da Hu's suggestion to have someone play with him really hit the nail on the head.

Having made the decision, just as Lu Jingbai continued to subtly assert his presence with his tail, a touch of warmth briefly came from the tip of his tail and then disappeared.

The lively tail suddenly stopped in mid-air, and the big tiger looked puzzled: It seemed like someone had touched his tail just now.

But Alina was the only one behind him.

She hasn't touched their fur for over a day, so... it probably wasn't her.

Is that an illusion?

Withdrawing his gaze from what he had inadvertently glanced behind him, Lu Jingbai continued to lead the way back to the stream they had returned from yesterday, his tail swaying back and forth as if to entice them.

"!"

This time it's definitely not his imagination!

Feeling the touch from the tip of the tail once again, Lu Jingbai turned around sharply, his gaze falling on Alina's hand.

The girl's fair and beautiful hands hung naturally and relaxed at her sides, showing that she was very well-behaved.

The tiger continued wagging its tail, while its peripheral vision frequently swept towards the girl behind it.

The petal-like cuffs covered most of Alina's hands, thus concealing the rubbing motion between her thumb and forefinger.

A realization dawned on Alina's rose-colored eyes, and she mentally corrected herself: "Just get the points, you promised the little cutie."

If the little cutie were here, she probably wouldn't be so obedient, since it's just a matter of petting something fluffy. But on the contrary, the little cutie went off to fight.

So, even after reaching their destination, Lu Jingbai's tiger-like eyes were practically squinting, and he still didn't get to see Alina touch him again.

Looking at the clear blue waters of the stream before him, Lu Jingbai squeezed his eyes shut a few times before finally managing to relax them. He thought to himself: Isn't a mental energy outburst supposed to not affect the five senses?

Why does he seem like an accident?

"Big Tiger, are you trying to play in the water?"

Alina glanced at the stream, then at the tiger staring expectantly at the water, and thought to herself: It probably didn't have enough fun yesterday.

"Da Hong, did you all come along to cool off too?"

Looking up at the four furry creatures that had followed them all the way, Alina asked in a puzzled tone.

Pei Jingnian, who was a germaphobe and absolutely did not want to get his fur wet, shook his head frantically: "Ooh! No, I don't want to."

Gu Hansheng wasn't very interested in the live-streamed water play and declined.

Mo Zhuxi nodded indifferently.

As for He Yanzhou?

He thought about it very seriously for a long time before "reluctantly" agreeing.

So, on the bank of the stream, in no time, a bear, a lion, a tiger, and an elf were playing together. Luckily, Alina was wearing a dark green top and pants today; otherwise, she would have asked to leave immediately.

They seem to be having a lot of fun, but isn't this situation a bit inappropriate?

[That's right, while the Marshal is fighting a tough battle on the front lines, General Lu and his men are poaching talent from the rear!?]

[Stealing her away? Don't be so rude. They probably just wanted to distract Linlin's wife because she seemed distracted.]

There are so many ways to distract themselves, why did they choose a game like playing in the water, which has ambiguous connotations? Anyone with eyes can see that their real intention is something else entirely!

Alina is already with the Marshal, so why doesn't she refuse this game that lacks any sense of distance? She hasn't changed into her swimsuit yet; she looks even more alluring and beautiful this way.

[All this noise all day long, can't you just watch the live stream in peace?!]

...

"Ding-dong, points +3."

Just as Alina was enthusiastically scooping water, she suddenly heard the system's voice in her ear.

"Splash!"

The water in their palms instantly fell from their hands, which were suspended in mid-air, and returned to the stream.

3 points for a shower? Does that even count?

Alina tilted her head, a look of doubt appearing in her eyes. Then, a flame seemed to rise in her rose-colored eyes as she stared intently at the other two furry creatures playing in the water.

So, the panda, who was just an extra and playing around at the edge of the water fight, was suddenly attacked by Alina.

Mo Zhuxi closed her small eyes, which had almost been splashed with water, and looked extremely puzzled: "?" What happened?

With its round, short, chubby hands nimbly bobbing on the water's surface twice, Mo Zhuxi successfully turned itself around, using its broad back to welcome the delicious chef's enthusiasm.

Mo Zhuxi wiped away the water droplets around her dark circles with her paws, and calmly "stood" in place while Alina played with her.

Although he didn't know why Alina suddenly turned her "attack" on him, it was proof that she had him in her eyes. If he could return to human form now, he would want to become her apprentice tonight!

Looking down at her own strong and powerful claws, Mo Zhuxi missed her own nimble human hands very much.

Lu Jingbai and He Yanzhou, who were ignored: "..."

The yellow tiger tail with black stripes and the golden lion tail paused behind them for a moment. The next second, as if they had agreed on a tactic from afar, large waves of water crashed into the black and white "wall" not far ahead.

The panda, its head suddenly lurching forward, nearly got slapped into the water: "..."

No, what does this have to do with you?

Giant pandas are not without temper. In fact, it is precisely because they are not good at speaking that they are quite capable of fighting. So soon, the battle between a bear and a lion and a tiger in the water officially began!

Alina, who single-handedly sparked a "mega battle," successfully snatched the remaining two points with just a few splashes of water.

She had played with Big Tiger and Big Gold for nearly half an hour before, and the water on her body was only enough to make her feel like she had taken a bath in a stream. But after the three beasts opened up the battlefield, Alina, who had been accidentally injured, quickly felt like she had taken a bath in a stream.

Alina looked up and saw the robot that had appeared in the distance. With one hand behind her back, she easily and silently moved away from the battlefield.

Reaching for the small towel on the top shelf, Alina dried her hair while thinking that her colleague was doing a pretty good job.

She quickly dried her hair until it was half dry, and most of the water droplets on her body were absorbed by the highly absorbent towel.

Looking down at the wet towel in her hands, and then looking up at the tray of dry towels with no empty space, she didn't know where to put it for a moment.

Her clothes were soaking wet and stuck to her skin. If Little Cutie were here, she would definitely tell her to go back and change her clothes right away, but she had to wait for the three of them to come out of the water and use the act of rubbing their fur to collect the points.

[To those haters who said Linlin's wife was approachable, open your blind eyes and take a good look! Here she is, right here!]

It's clear that Lu Shang and the other two were having a great time and were completely absorbed in the experience. Even after Linlin's wife had dried herself off and put on her bathrobe, they still hadn't noticed that one person was missing!

Lu Jingbai had indeed discovered it, but the current battle situation left him no choice but to withdraw.

Live broadcast room.

Alina's solo fans and her shippers with Marshal were immediately elated, but they didn't expect that the backlash would come so quickly.

Wait, wait, wait! What is Linlin's wife doing?!

[Aww! Honey, why are you wiping General Lu and the others' fur? The robot could do it!]

[I knew it! She has no sense of distance! No, it's not just about distance anymore. She's definitely a womanizer!]

[I truly feel sorry for the Marshal. How could he fall for such a fickle flower fairy? The Marshal is still on the front lines fighting the Zerg!]

[She's so fickle even on live stream; who knows how Alina will trample on the Marshal's sincerity after the stream ends! Can't they send a different flower fairy? I refuse to believe she's the only one who can withstand the Marshal's dissipated spiritual energy field!]

Why hasn't the military organized a pre-arranged marriage yet? Since the Marshal and Alina have already expressed their feelings for each other, it would be good for them to leave this arranged marriage estate sooner rather than later. Perhaps once they go back to their daily lives, Alina will devote herself entirely to the Marshal?

The military representative looked at the comments with a helpless expression: "We organized it in advance, but the marshal had to leave due to battle. The person in charge isn't present, so we have no choice but to postpone it?"

Time ticked by, and Alina grew increasingly anxious. How long would it take for her little darling to come back?

When is the Marshal finally coming back?! If he doesn't come back soon, his wife will be gone!

These past few days, adhering to the philosophy that "even a small mosquito is still meat," Alina has been trying her best to extract points from the five furry creatures every day. Although her actions have become much more discreet than before, they still can't escape the microscope-like eyes of the "boys" and "girls" in the live stream.

Oh no, or rather, even Lu Jingbai and the other parties involved are almost misunderstanding.

After all, sneaking around is much more "ambiguous" and "terrifying" than being open and aboveboard. At the very least, it means that she knows that as the Marshal's undisputed partner, she shouldn't touch other beastmen in their animal forms.

Instead of being as generous as before, as if the fault lay with the devoted audience!

Just as Alina's unfaithful views on love were about to be labeled, an unexpected incident occurred.

In the dimly lit bedroom, on a light green pillow, a beautiful young girl frowned, and fine water droplets floated on her fair and firm forehead.

"Ha-hoo ha-hoo..."

Alina opened her eyes abruptly, clutching the blanket tightly with both hands, gasping for breath. She had another dream.

On the blood-red wasteland littered with severed limbs, ruins, and corpses, a huge snow leopard was covered in bloodstains. The bloodstains on its clean, icy fur made it look particularly terrifying.

What's most chilling and unsettling is the piercing chest wound that could kill a leopard. Suddenly, the sound of dripping water can be heard beside the unusually quiet snow leopard, and bright red blood falls like a torrential downpour.

Although she didn't see the insectoids harming the snow leopard, Alina knew perfectly well in her sleep that the blood droplets falling like rain were the snow leopard's blood.
