When Shen Qianyu strode open the door, he saw the boy who had been startled awake. The boy paused for a moment when he saw him, seemingly racking his brains, unsure whether to hug him first or put the toys back in the storage box.

For the first time, Shen Qianyu picked up the cub from the ground and even picked up its toys. She then asked the cub:

Where should I put it?

The cub seemed to be in a daze with joy and did not answer him.

Fortunately, the assistant stepped forward at this moment and said to Shen Qianyu:

"The little one usually plays with toys on the carpet over there."

Shen Qianyu glanced at him: "You seem to know him better than I do."

The assistant lowered his head but did not argue.

Because that's the truth. Sometimes Shen Qianyu would send him over to take care of the children, and he would spend more time with the cubs than Shen Qianyu did (if you exclude sleep time).

Therefore, he understands the cubs better than Shen Qianyu.

However, Shen Qianyu did not find fault, because the way the cubs interacted with him and depended on him was completely different from how they treated others.

Everyone can see it.

The cub only likes and wants its father.

The person the cub was waiting for was Shen Qianyu.

It's amazing that such a tiny cub has so much perseverance and willpower, and would put everything aside to wait wholeheartedly for someone to come home.

Even a mature orc cannot do this.

It's not that they can't do it, it's that they're unwilling to.

In this world where power and status reign supreme, everyone is hypocritical and insincere; there is no genuine sincerity, and no one is willing to offer such a sincere heart.

It will be greedily devoured whole, leaving nothing behind.

Therefore, the cub's sincere heart is extremely rare and precious.

It is so precious that it makes everyone envious and jealous.

Why can the king eat so well?

But Shen Qianyu couldn't hear their thoughts, and even if she did, she wouldn't care.

Because these people won't really affect him. If he really wanted to hold them accountable, those guys who smeared his image and spread rumors that his rule would lead to the end of the beast race would be dragged out and executed one by one. There wouldn't even be enough space in the execution ground.

Shen Qianyu gathered her thoughts and focused on the child in her arms: "Don't wait for me next time. I'm very busy and may not be home very early."

The cub put on that pitiful expression again.

Even if he doesn't say a word, that expression is enough.

The disappointment of having his expectations dashed made Zai hang his head.

So how many times can a person be disappointed and let down before finally despairing completely?

After despair, is it impossible to make amends and never see each other again?

Shen Qianyu paused for a moment, then took back her words for the first time:

"You'll come to work with me, but you must be quiet and obedient. If you disturb me, I'll send you home."

The cub was overjoyed, and he showed his first bright smile after being depressed for the past few days.

This surreal feeling dealt another heavy blow to Shen Qianyu's heart.

The condemning gazes from those around them intensified.

Shen Qianyu pretended not to see it and went to eat with the cub in her arms.

The next day, before dawn, Shen Qianyu noticed that the cub had gotten up and was now doing parkour on his body.

He usually feels like he's not fully awake when he gets up to go to work, so why is he up so early this morning?

Are you that excited?

Shen Qianyu was also somewhat annoyed by the cub's liveliness, so she could only lift the blanket, grab the cub that had secretly climbed onto the bed from the human's nest, and meet its eyes, which were surprisingly bright in the dark.

He pulled the cub out, placed it beside him, and pressed it down:

"It's not even dawn yet, go to sleep and rest."

The cub, who had been pinned to the ground, finally calmed down. Seeing that Shen Qianyu was coming to grab him, and unable to escape, he did not resist. He even wished he could roll over and let Shen Qianyu touch him when she reached out.

Unfortunately, Shen Qianyu was too upright and unyielding, and could only hold people close to his side and wrap them in his arms.

Then cover yourself with the blanket and tuck the corners in.

cub: ...

The cub closed its eyes for a while, and after Shen Qianyu fell asleep again, it got up and stuffed all its favorite items, such as its toys, bowls and chopsticks, blankets, and pillows, into Shen Qianyu's suitcase.

He even squeezed himself inside.

When Shen Qianyu got up, what she saw was the cub sitting in the suitcase.

The cub's eyes sparkled, as if they were telling a single story:

Take me with you.

So Shen Qianyu didn't even know how to get angry.

The adorable baby just wants to stay with their guardian, what's wrong with that?

Shen Qianyu stepped forward and picked up the cub, finally patting its back with practiced ease.

However, Shen Qianyu remained rational and clear-headed throughout.

He coldly addressed the cub:

"You can only take two toys, no more."

The cub, dejected, sacrificed its best friends, looking particularly pained and heartbroken.

However, the cubs are used to acting cute in front of him. The cub that lost its toy glanced at him, slowly walked back, and even snuggled up in his arms to wipe away its tears.

He looked like he had been wronged and was about to tell his parents.

Shen Qianyu thought about the cub in the surveillance footage that was wary of others and wouldn't approach them on its own initiative, and then looked at the cub in his arms wiping away its tears with his clothes. His heart ached and softened.

It wasn't until Shen Qianyu noticed that the boy was secretly watching his expression that she realized what was happening.

Little rascal.

Shen Qianyu, who always hated being manipulated or schemed against, found it all laughable.

Perhaps it's because the clumsy yet innocent skills of the cubs are not annoying, or perhaps it's because the cubs have shown their true feelings so early on.

When relatives try to please each other, it's not called scheming, it's called being affectionate.

So, without realizing it, it seems that even this ruthless king has been easily manipulated by the cubs.

Shen Qianyu dared not question her own heart; she could only hold the baby in her arms and gradually reveal her bottom line of constantly retreating.

He instructed his men to repack a new package for the cubs to take out.

Just when his subordinates thought it was a simple matter, they heard Shen Qianyu give the order:

"Make another set of clothes and bedding for the cubs in my office according to the current standards, and also replace the beds in the rest room with the softest quality ones."

"Take away the toy the baby likes, his favorite books, potted plants, wall hangings, the baby's mouth wipes, his medicine, his formula, his snacks..."

The more his subordinates memorized the information, the more dizzy they became. Anyone who didn't know better would have thought that Wang was going to move his entire family to live inside the company premises.

However, it seems that's exactly what his king meant.

Fearing that the cub would not adapt well to the new environment, the mother did her best to pave the way for the cub and shield him from all the anxieties and storms outside.

With a guardian like the king in the past, how can the cubs survive in the hands of others?

No matter how much effort the other orcs put in, they can never compare to the king.

Sigh, the little one is so young, yet he has already met someone who spoils him terribly.
