"Gaga hahaha~"

Looking at the Arctic fox being brutally beaten in front of her, Xu Qiaoqiao felt guilty for a second, feeling a little embarrassed for dragging her uncle into this mess, but she quickly recovered.

It's okay, Uncle. I'll just play with you all day long.

I don't know why, among so many foxes, my uncle's call is different.

The calls of other Arctic foxes are almost all quacking, which sounded a bit like duck quacking to Xu Qiaoqiao, but Uncle Victor...

"Hahaha~ Hahaha!"

Hearing that peculiar scream, Xu Qiaoqiao couldn't help but chuckle. Her eyes crinkled into crescents, and her beautiful gray-blue eyes sparkled like stars. She forgot to hide her expression.

"quack!"

Victor finally let out a different cry, staring wide-eyed at Xu Qiaoqiao's beaming face in disbelief.

How can you laugh?

You are no longer my dear little niece.

Panda's father was giving Uncle Victor a good beating, while Lily's mother was helping out on the sidelines. If Victor accidentally broke free from his restraints, she would even step on him.

The other adult Arctic foxes didn't get involved much, but their expressions all condemned him.

Your little sister is less than two months old. She probably doesn't even know what hunting is. How could you let her come here to hunt? That's just too much!

He deserves it!

Among the male foxes here, Panda's father is the most robust and appears to be the most assertive.

Since the younger sister had already come out, sending her back would be a waste of time, so after Dad finished scolding his naughty brother-in-law, he reluctantly agreed to let Xu Qiaoqiao go hunting with them.

However, the premise is that you are not allowed to run around and must stay with Uncle Victor.

"Giggle." Got it.

Xu Qiaoqiao called out and obediently let her father kiss her little head, and then her mother came over to comfort her.

Based on Victor's usual behavior towards Xu Qiaoqiao, no one doubted that Xu Qiaoqiao had come along on her own. They just thought that this guy was too clueless. It was one thing to bully her normally, but he didn't even know his place in such an important occasion.

That's right, everyone agrees that Victor lured Xu Qiaoqiao over.

This is beyond doubt.

As for the possibility that Xu Qiaoqiao herself might come along...

The Arctic foxes: What a joke! Joe is so young. Although he's a bit quiet, he's still a very cute fox. Why would we force him to come here?

Victor: ...

Hunting is something everyone does together.

We won't separate.

Xu Qiaoqiao obediently followed behind her Uncle Victor. When she saw his resentful gaze sweep over her, she smiled awkwardly and then retorted.

"Giggle." Oh dear, Uncle, don't be angry. I didn't expect it to turn out like this either.

“But you were laughing just now.” Victor narrowed his handsome eyes, his expression seeming to say that he saw right through him.

Xu Qiaoqiao raised her head, nudged Uncle Victor's chin with her kiss, her eyes curved into crescent shapes, and gently flirted with him, her soft paws rubbing against his cheek.

"Uncle, uncle, uncle..."

You can't exactly say that your screams were so funny that you finally couldn't hold back anymore, can you?

Xu Qiaoqiao was certain that if she really said that, her uncle would probably ignore her for the next few days. Although her uncle was a bit slow and mischievous, he loved her very much, and Xu Qiaoqiao could still tell that.

Uncle, let's stick it on.

When he sensed his little niece's coquettishness, Victor hummed a few times, refraining from responding to her actions, but his eyes were already filled with laughter, looking quite radiant.

After Xu Qiaoqiao finished her act of acting cute, Victor gave a cold snort: "Don't do that next time."

Xu Qiaoqiao nodded: "Okay."

Xu Qiaoqiao followed them, walking through the pine forest ahead, passing through the small stone forest, and finally, Panda's father sniffed a few times on a very ordinary piece of land, then pointed to this land, his firm eyes telling everyone, this is the place.

Papa Panda was an excellent hunter with a keen sense of smell. Under his guidance, his family quickly found a burrow inhabited by a small nest of lemmings.

When Papa Panda smelled the lemmings in their nest and heard their squeaks, he quickly bent over and dug up the lemming nest. When he had dug it up enough, he would suddenly jump high into the air and use the force of the leap to bury his head in the mud, catching the whole nest of lemmings in one fell swoop.

While the panda father was attacking, the other adult Arctic foxes were also busy helping out to prevent any lemmings from falling.

A few minutes later, each fox had several lemmings in its mouth.

Unlike Arctic foxes, lemmings are not typically social animals. When lemmings live together, strong, large lemmings will push smaller lemmings out of the group and force them into narrow spaces.

Clearly, these are the lemmings.

It is very small in size.

Papa Panda glanced at the number of lemmings; they had enough for this meal. Then, he looked at Xu Qiaoqiao with a kind smile: "Qiao, would you like some berries? If so, let Victor go with you."

Xu Qiaoqiao blinked and smiled, "Thank you, Dad. Yes, I'll take it."

Although Arctic foxes do eat berries, they don't eat them often, since they're not their staple food. Of the whole family, only Joe likes to eat them, so everyone else gets influenced and eats a few after finishing their main meal.

Summer is the peak season for berries. The bright red fruits stand out against the green backdrop, and Xu Qiaoqiao's eyes lit up when she saw so many berries.

"Hurry up, hurry up!" she urged Uncle Victor to come over quickly, then quickly bit into a leaf and filled it with berries as she ate. Tonight's snacks were quite plentiful.

Uncle Victor jumped a few times, got close to Xu Qiaoqiao, and bumped into her. Xu Qiaoqiao was not prepared and fell face-first to the ground. Then Victor laughed loudly beside her, as if he really liked to tease Xu Qiaoqiao like this.

Xu Qiaoqiao was no pushover either, and immediately launched a counterattack.

The two guys played for a long time, and it was almost dark when they went back. Sure enough, they got a scolding, but only the uncle got scolded; Xu Qiaoqiao was not affected.

A world where only the uncle is injured is achieved!

In the evening, Lily's mother gave each of her children a loving hug and said goodnight, and they all fell asleep quickly.

Tomorrow we'll be starting our long journey, which is going to be a huge undertaking, so I need to get plenty of sleep.

But Xu Qiaoqiao couldn't sleep.

She's been here for almost two months now, living here the whole time, and has no idea what it's like outside.

And Junjun, where is Junjun?

How am I supposed to find him then? Should I actively seek out those polar bears? That seems a bit risky. Apparently, some starving polar bears will eat Arctic foxes. I need to think this method through carefully.

As Xu Qiaoqiao pondered, she nestled in her mother's arms and fell asleep.
