Xiao Sibao rushed out of the house and anxiously asked Dabao, "Brother, have you found the wolf cub?"

Da Bao shook his head, looking anxious as well.

He searched the area around the cabin, but still couldn't find the wolf cub.

Erbao and Sanbao also returned from outside, both looking unwell. Without even asking, it was clear they hadn't found the wolf cub either.

"What should we do? The little wolf cub is so small, where will it go? Waaah, will it be caught, killed, and eaten?" Little Sibao cried sadly.

Da Bao comforted Xiao Si Bao: "No, everyone knows we have a wolf cub at home. If they see it, they'll bring it to us."

Most of the orcs in the tribe are good and won't make things difficult for a wolf cub raised by a cub, but there are also some who don't care where the wolf cub came from and will definitely hide it and eat it.

The cubs had searched everywhere they could think of, but still couldn't find it. They could only wait for Shen Miao to return and tell her that the little wolf cub was missing.

Upon hearing this, Shen Miao's expression also became somewhat solemn.

This little one was the one she brought back. She raised it from such a tiny size to its current lively and energetic state. Not to mention the babies, even she herself can't bear to part with them.

She found out when the wolf cub went missing and then went out to search for it.

But the wolf cub is so small, and there are many orcs in the tribe. Where can we find such a tiny creature?

On the first day, Shen Miao returned empty-handed.

The children were all in low spirits, and the fourth child even cried so much that he couldn't eat.

The second day, the third day...

Just when Shen Miao thought the little wolf cub was about to be lost, things suddenly took a turn for the better.

This turning point came from Fulu, who secretly told Shen Miao that he had seen an identical snow wolf cub at Ya Ling's house, and he thought that it was the same one that Shen Miao had.

Upon hearing this, Shen Miao decided that regardless of whether it was true or not, she would make the trip.

Coincidentally, Green Pearl was not at home.

Shen Miao stood at the front door of Lü Zhu's house and saw Ya Ling holding roasted meat and coaxing the little snow wolf. She recognized it at a glance; the little snow wolf was the one from her house.

The little snow wolf seemed a bit listless; no matter how much she was coaxed, Ya Ling wouldn't open her mouth.

"Little one, eat quickly, you'll starve to death if you don't eat. You've been hungry for days." Ya Ling was very anxious.

She loved the little snow wolf very much and wanted it to stay with her forever; she didn't want it to die.

But the little one refused to eat.

"Let me do it," Shen Miao suddenly said, startling Ya Ling.

When she saw Shen Miao's face, she felt a little guilty, picked up the little snow wolf, and stammered, "No, it's not necessary."

But when the little snow wolf saw Shen Miao, it recognized her and started to wriggle in Ya Ling's arms. Ya Ling quickly hugged it tightly and said, puzzled, "Little snow wolf, what are you doing? Don't struggle, you'll fall."

“Yaling, this snow wolf belongs to my family. Dabao and the others often take it out to play. You should know that, right?” Shen Miao tried to reason with Yaling.

Ya Ling pursed her lips and remained silent.

Shen Miao continued, "The little snow wolf has been out for three days. Si Bao's eyes are swollen from crying. You've been playing with it for several days too. Give it back to us, okay?"

"But, but I also want to play with the little snow wolf." Ya Ling's voice was trembling with tears.

Shen Miao said in a gentle voice, "How about this, you can come to my house often from now on and play with Xiao Sibao and the others. That way you can see Xiao Xuelang more often. Do you think that's okay?"

Ya Ling shook her head and said dejectedly, "I can't go to your house, my mother won't let me."

Shen Miao frowned, feeling utterly speechless at this Green Pearl.

What a terrible child she's raised!

She restrained her temper and patiently said, "Then you still can't leave the little snow wolf at home. It won't eat what you feed it. If this continues, it will die in a few days."

She's not trying to scare children; this is the truth.

Ya Ling was indeed frightened. She loved the wolf cub and didn't want it to die. If it died, she would never see it again. She wanted to return it to Si Bao and the others so that she could see it from afar in the future.

"Okay, then I'll give it back to you. Can I secretly look at it later?" Ya Ling asked timidly.

“Of course,” Shen Miao replied affirmatively.

Ya Ling stroked the little snow wolf's head, reluctantly preparing to give it to Chen Miao.

Just as Shen Miao was about to reach out to take it, a figure rushed over like the wind, snatched the little snow wolf away, and said to Shen Miao, "In broad daylight, Shen Miao, how dare you come to my house to steal my things!"

He then scolded Yaling, "How can you be so spineless? You're just giving away your own things after being tricked by someone. How have I raised you? Can't you be a little more responsible?!"

Ya Ling cried, "But, but, the little snow wolf isn't, isn't my family's..."

"Shut up!" Green Pearl snapped.

Ya Ling was so frightened that tears welled up in her eyes, but she dared not let them fall.

Shen Miao saw that she seemed to have become a different person. When she first arrived, this female beast was gentle and kind, but she was a bit arrogant. After being disciplined by Shen Miao a few times, she completely lost her good attitude towards Shen Miao.

Once Green Pearl's true nature is revealed, she becomes no different from a shrew.

Shen Miao looked on coldly and said in a chilling voice, "Green Pearl, this snow wolf belongs to my family. All the beastmen in the tribe know this. You stole my family's property and took it for yourself. Do you still want to turn the tables on me?"

Green Pearl said disdainfully, "So what if it's yours? You can't even control your own things, letting them run into other people's homes, so you have no right to ask me for them."

"Whether the little snow wolf came on its own or you carried it here, you know the answer in your heart," Shen Miao said bluntly.

The little snow wolf is pampered by its cubs and rarely goes out. Even if it does, it won't venture to Taiyuan; it will just stay near its home.

Green Pearl was clearly lying when she said the little snow wolf had come to her house.

Green Pearl remained unfazed and said firmly, "I said it came from here, and it is here now. Anyway, it's mine."

"Have you no shame? Stealing someone else's well-raised wolf cub. If you're so capable, go up the mountain and hunt one yourself. If you're not, then don't raise one. Are you itching for a beating again? Have you forgotten how you begged for mercy the other day? I don't mind teaching you a lesson again." Shen Miao started rolling up her sleeves.

Green Pearl's pupils suddenly contracted.

The image of being brutally beaten by Shen Miao in front of so many orcs flashed through Green Pearl's mind again, and the fear and anger in her eyes disappeared in an instant.

She couldn't help but take a step back and hug the little snow wolf in her arms even tighter.

The next moment, a sharp pain shot through her arm. Looking down, she saw the little snow wolf baring its teeth and biting her hard, struggling desperately to get down.

Fortunately, the little snow wolf's teeth weren't strong enough, otherwise it would have bitten off a chunk of flesh from Green Pearl's arm.
