Huahua felt the disdain of her two masters, and stared at Feng Jiuyan and Feng Jiuli pitifully with her big watery eyes full of grievance.

"Ouch?" Huahua called out weakly.

"Ouch?" Huahua called out weakly, with a hint of resentment and confusion in her voice.

Doesn’t the owner give it a bath?

Huahua looked at Feng Jiuyan aggrievedly.

Feng Jiuli stretched out her little hand and gently patted the tiger's butt. She said in an urging tone, "Huahua, go wash it quickly. Look at you, the tiger's hair is all tangled. It doesn't look good at all!"

After hearing this, Huahua looked at the two "heartless" little masters and whimpered helplessly. Then, it stretched out its limbs and ran wildly towards the lake.

Its figure splashed in the lake, as if it was venting its dissatisfaction. But it didn't dare to really disobey the orders of its two little masters, so it could only go to take a bath obediently.

When she saw Huahua's resentful back, Feng Jiuyan couldn't help but chuckle, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised. There was a hint of smile in her eyes, as if she had seen something interesting.

Feng Jiuli grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and said happily, "Oh my, Huahua is so cute when he gets angry! That aggrieved little expression makes people want to hug him!"

His laughter was clear and sweet, like a silver bell.

Huahua seemed to have noticed the laughter of its two owners, and it suddenly stopped what it was doing. Then, it slowly straightened up, as if it was deliberately showing off its power. Then, it gathered all its strength and shook its huge body violently.

Instantly, countless water splashes burst out from it like a fountain, drawing beautiful arcs in the air. These splashing water splashes like a downpour, pouring down on the shore. The unprepared Feng Jiuyan and Feng Jiuli were attacked by this sudden "water bomb" and were splashed with a lot of water droplets.

Their clothes were soaked and their faces were covered with water droplets. The brother and sister were a little embarrassed by this sudden situation, but looking at Huahua's naughty appearance, they couldn't help laughing.

Huahua seemed to be proud of her successful "prank" and swam happily in the lake, enjoying the happy time.

Feng Jiuyan and Feng Jiuli, brother and sister, stood on the shore, picked up stones on the ground, and started playing skipping stones.

This joyful and harmonious scene was seen by Qiao Ping who was not far away. He turned around and walked back, a smile flashed in his eyes, which showed both doting and relief.

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, forming a beautiful arc. Before he could hide his smile, he was seen by Madam Feng who came hurriedly.

Madam Feng stopped and looked straight at Qiao Ping without blinking.

The two people's eyes met in the air, as if an invisible force tightly connected them together, making it difficult to break free.

Madam Feng's eyes flashed with hesitation. She stood there quietly, as if she was struggling with something. After a long while, she slowly opened her mouth, her voice trembling, and asked in a daze: "You, you..."

But when the words came to my lips, they seemed to be blocked by something and I couldn't say them.

Her eyes were full of confusion and expectation, as if she was expecting Qiao Ping to give her an answer.

But what did she want to ask?

Was she going to ask Qiao Ping if she knew her husband Feng Huaijin?

I still want to ask Qiao Ping, is he her missing husband?

Her heart was filled with entanglement and confusion. She didn't know how to start, nor did she know how Qiao Ping would respond.

She was worried that the answer Qiao Ping would give was not what she wanted.

Qiao Ping stood there quietly, looking at Madam Feng. A complex emotion flashed in his eyes, including surprise, confusion, and a hint of barely perceptible sadness.

His lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he remained silent.

The two of them just stared at each other quietly, and the air around them seemed to have frozen, with only a gentle breeze blowing, bringing a slight coolness.

The two of them were in a stalemate, and time seemed to have stopped at this moment. After a long while, Qiao Ping finally broke the silence. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said in a low and gentle voice: "Madam, are you looking for your two children? They are playing over there."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed in the direction of Feng Jiuyan.

Mrs. Feng's face flashed with disappointment, and her bright eyes were covered with a dark shadow. She tried to force a smile and said in a dry voice, "Haha, yes. Thank you, Brother Qiao, for telling me."

She looked past Qiao Ping and in the direction he pointed, her eyes full of loneliness and melancholy. Her body trembled slightly, as if she was trying her best to hide the pain and loss in her heart.

When Qiao Ping saw Madam Feng's appearance, he felt an inexplicable pain in his heart, but he could not say anything. He could only stand by her silently and accompany her to bear this unspeakable sadness.

"Awoo——", the shrill roar, like a sharp blade, instantly broke the silent sky.

Upon hearing the sound, Madam Feng suddenly raised her head and looked eagerly towards the lake.

Huahua, which was swimming leisurely in the lake, seemed to be disturbed by something and became restless. Its body twisted wildly, as if it was suffering unbearable pain.

The two children on the shore were extremely anxious. Feng Jiuyan even planned to jump into the lake.

Seeing this, Madam Feng was extremely anxious. She hurriedly said hello to Qiao Ping and ran towards Huahua with a quick pace. Her skirt flew up as she ran, and her face was full of anxiety and worry.

"Huahua, Huahua, what's wrong with you? Come up quickly!" Feng Jiuyan shouted anxiously, his voice full of concern and anxiety.

Huahua seemed to understand Feng Jiuyan's words. It gradually calmed down and then rushed to the shore with all its might.

After a while, Huahua swam to the shore.

Feng Jiuyan hurried forward and carefully checked Huahua's condition. When Feng Jiuyan saw what was on Huahua, the worry on his face disappeared and he almost fell down with laughter.
