early morning

In the height of summer, she sat in Jiao Su's arms, her bright almond-shaped eyes looking around, occasionally wiggling her toes.

Jiao Su's eyes darkened slightly when he saw her smooth little feet. He reached out and grabbed her foot, playing with it with it affectionately.

Shengxia, tickled, leaned on his shoulder and laughed.

"Haha... Su Su, stop it, it tickles."

"Oh right, let's go pick the soap pods later. We're out of soap, let's make some more." Shengxia looked at Jiaosu with a bright smile.

Jiao Su smiled and agreed.

Yafatu Tribe

Jiao Su gently landed on the soapberry tree with Sheng Xia in her arms, picked the soapberries, and gracefully landed with one arm around her.

Many males lined up under the tree cheered at the sight. Having just been rescued from a tornado, their admiration and gratitude for Shangxia reached its peak.

Jiao Su calmly swept her golden eyes over, and the cheers stopped abruptly.

His aura was so powerful that no beast dared to be presumptuous in front of him; they could only secretly observe him and mutter excitedly in low voices.

“The witch doctor Xia uses soap pods just like us!”

"Are you stupid? The method of using soapberry was taught to us by the witch doctor Xia!"

"Oh right! Hehe... I was just too excited!"

Seeing their inexplicable fervor, like fans chasing after celebrities, Sheng Xia quickly curled her lips into a smile, raised her hand to hug Jiao Su's cool neck, and rubbed her face against it.

"Susu, it's time to go home."

"Okay." Jiao Su tightened her grip.

With strong, powerful arms wrapped around her waist and her unique, cool fragrance emanating from him, Sheng Xia felt incredibly safe.

Her eyes softened, and she turned her head slightly to kiss his chin.

Jiao Su paused for a moment, a surge of emotion welling up inside him. He smiled faintly, then embraced her and gracefully flew into the sky.

As soon as she got home, the aroma of spicy hot pot wafted out, and Shengxia's eyes lit up as she quickly went inside.

Wolf King was drinking milk with his cubs in the living room, while Aoki was chopping vegetables, Tie Bai was washing and slicing meat, and Yang Yun was seriously preparing the broth.

With a resentful look on his face, Hu Xue picked up a small stool and sat at the door grinding medicinal powder. When he saw Sheng Xia, his eyes instantly lit up with a bright light.

His fox-like eyes narrowed slightly. He stood up, took two quick steps, took Sheng Xia's hand, and lowered his head to kiss her lips affectionately.

"Sister Xiaxia~ They won't let me cook, and they won't let me breastfeed the babies..."

He wants to take care of such an adorable child.

Sheng Xia's lips twitched. She raised her hand and gently poked the corner of Hu Xue's drooping eye, teasing her with a smile.

"You were born to make medicine, how can you do anything else?" Black Hands should stay away from food, making medicine is much better.

Fox Snow curled her lips into a smile, took Sheng Xia's hand, and sat down at the dining table. Her clear voice carried a subtle allure.

"Yes, a natural-born medicine-making hand and a powerful witch doctor are a perfect match, a perfect match in every way~"

Shengxia glared at him.

Looking at the exaggerated layer of red oil in the pot, she couldn't help but take a deep breath and swallow her saliva. She was hungry again after just finishing her meal.

Seeing Shengxia's greedy expression, Wolf King smiled indulgently and turned to Qingmu, saying, "You can start cooking the vegetables now."

After saying that, she turned around, picked up the babies, and went upstairs.

Aoki smiled brightly and deftly put the leafy greens into the pot. In the boiling pot, the greens were quickly cooked and soaked up the broth.

He smiled brightly, picked out the vegetables and put them into the sauce bowl that Yang Yun had prepared, carefully coating them with the sauce, and then brought them to Sheng Xia's lips.

The spicy and savory flavor was unforgettable. After taking a bite, she took the chopsticks and started eating herself, while also calling out to Ah Qing and the others next to her.

"Come on, sit next to Grandma, it's delicious!"

Lion Qing trotted over excitedly and sat down next to Sheng Xia first. Sheep Yuan lagged behind and sat on the other side. Wolf Song smiled and walked over to sit down next to Sheep Yun.

Shengxia reached out and hugged him, affectionately rubbing his fluffy little head, her voice incredibly gentle.

"Come here, let your mother hold you while you eat."

Although A-Ge is the eldest brother, he's still a child at heart. His maturity is heartbreaking, and he always gives way to his younger siblings...

Upon hearing this, Lang Ge's eyes lit up, and he nodded happily.

Shengxia looked at Shiqing, who was full of anticipation, and Yangyuan, who was looking on expectantly, and patted them on the head one by one.

The sun shines brightly outside the window, and a gentle breeze blows.

Aoki and Tiebai helped blanch the vegetables, Yangyun added broth and prepared dipping sauces, Jiaosu made fruit juice, and Shengxia was only responsible for eating and drinking.

The spiciness gradually built up, and even in the sweltering summer heat, beads of sweat appeared on the tip of her nose. Seeing this, Yang Yun added two ice buckets behind her.

A cool breeze blew through the air as Shang Xia contentedly sipped the juice Jiao Su handed her, her eyes crinkling with happiness.

Seeing Shengxia let out a burp and slowly sit down on the recliner, Tie Bai and the others immediately sped up their actions.

Aoki quickly brushed a few slices of meat onto his plate, stuffed them into his mouth, chewed them hastily, and then added a lot more meat and a small amount of vegetables, glancing at Yang Yun in between.

Yang Yun took a clean bowl of seasoning and caught the vegetables that Qingmu had scooped out, her iron-white eyes curving slightly.

He quickly picked up a potato slice and put it into the bowl in front of Aoki. Seeing this, Jiao Su smiled knowingly and stretched out his long arm to scoop out the vermicelli from the bottom of the pot and put it into his bowl.

Soon, the bowl, as big as Aoki's head, was piled high with food. Aoki smiled brightly and quickly stuffed a few pieces of meat into the corner of his mouth.

He took the chopsticks from Yang Yun, picked up the bowl, and ran upstairs.

The three lions and beasts waited quietly by the side. When they saw Qingmu take the bowl upstairs, their eyes lit up and they rushed to eat.

The males are not afraid of being burned, and the cubs are no exception. They quickly stuff the meat taken out of the boiling pot into their mouths.

His hands didn't stop for a second, dancing wildly over the pot.

Before they knew it, the meat that had just been put into the pot was all scooped up by the fathers, making Shi Qing yell and scream in anger, and he fought even harder to grab it.

The beasts were dazzled by the frantic movements as they snatched the meat, yet they were remarkably careful not to spill a single drop of broth.

After dinner

Tie Bai and Jiao Su cleaned up, while Qing Mu knitted a sweater using the purple yarn that Hu Xue had just dyed.

Her slender, calloused fingers flew up and down, gradually revealing a beautiful flower shape. Shengxia, resting her chin on her hand, couldn't help but praise it.

"Wow, the lion is amazing! It's so skillful."

She couldn't even understand such a complicated flower pattern, but Aoki figured it out on his own based on what she taught him.

Most of the clothes in her wardrobe are made of wood; they are both beautiful and comfortable, and she loves every single one of them.

Looking at Sheng Xia's bright smiling face, Aoki's eyes lit up, and he had a new inspiration.

He couldn't wait to conjure vines, outlining the shape of a deep V-neck fishtail dress.

"Xia, look, do you like this?"

The purple sweater and long skirt perfectly covered his beloved pert buttocks, and the large collar revealed the shallow cleavage of his genitals.

It must be beautiful!

Summer looked up in surprise, smiled, hugged Aoki's face, and gave him a quick kiss: "I like it!"

It's a shame Aoki isn't a designer!

Aoki quickly removed the knitting needles, put his arm around Shengxia, and couldn't stop smiling excitedly when he heard her praise.
