When he has nothing to do, Lion Qing will never appear in front of Wolf Song and Sheep Yuan for even a minute longer.

I'm afraid of being strangled by them when they're upset.

You could say they have a very strong will to survive.

That noon, Shengxia suddenly had the urge to go and see what their classes looked like.

She smiled, her almond-shaped eyes crinkling, and looked up at Jiao Su.

"Susu, let's go pick up Age and the others from school."

I wonder if get out of class is over yet.

"Okay." Jiao Su did not disagree with Sheng Xia's suggestion.

When I arrived at the Cub Cave in the height of summer, I ran into students leaving get out of class. They were all carrying matching animal skin bags and excitedly discussing something.

"The pen they gave us this time is really useful."

"Yes, I heard it's a new invention by Teacher Yang Yun."

"The pen that used to fill the wood with black ink was also quite useful, but this quill pen is even more convenient for dipping in black ink."

"What black water? You're uncultured! That's called ink!"

"Oh right, ink! What does it mean to be uncultured?"

As Shengxia watched the children walk away, a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips. For a moment, she felt like a parent picking up her child from kindergarten.

Her eyes were slightly lowered, her thoughts wandering.

Suddenly, a wild laugh came from inside the courtyard, forcibly pulling Sheng Xia back to reality.

"You can't catch me, can you? Hahahaha, I'm just that powerful~"

The sound seemed to be coming from inside the school. Sheng Xia's eyes lit up, and she tugged at Jiao Su's big hand, tilting her head back with a gossipy look on her face.

"Susu, let's go take a look."

"Okay." When Jiao Su saw Sheng Xia's excited smile, his golden eyes shone brightly, and he stretched out his long arms to hug Sheng Xia.

He strode in with his long legs, ignoring the courtyard wall, and stepped inside, seemingly passing right through it. Sheng Xia stared in astonishment.

"Su Su, your superpower has leveled up?"

Jiao Su picked up Sheng Xia and placed her in the crook of his arm. He turned his head and kissed her on the cheek, nodding with a light laugh.

"Yes, it has advanced to the next level."

With Xiaxia's help and a cup of spiritual spring water a week, he'd be too useless if he didn't advance in rank soon, but he couldn't say that outside.

Clearly, Shengxia had also thought of this.

She leaned against Jiao Su with a smile, looking ahead with a gossipy expression.

A fledgling eagle flew in the sky, laughing heartily, while the flightless chicks below were so angry that they jumped up and down but still couldn't catch up with the flying beast.

"You naughty eagle! Don't let us catch you, or we'll beat you up!"

"That's too much! So what if you have wings? Waaaaah, why don't I have wings? I'm so angry!"

You'd better sleep with one eye open at night!

Upon hearing this, Sheng Xia blurted out without thinking, "Two eyes take turns standing guard."

The little cubs on the ground looked over upon hearing this and were pleasantly surprised to find that it was Xia the witch doctor who spoke. They immediately perked up.

"Yes! You'd better take turns keeping watch with both eyes!"

"Exactly, exactly! You'll have to take turns keeping watch with both eyes at night!"

"Take turns standing guard!"

Sheng Xia's almond-shaped eyes curved into a smile. She bit her lower lip lightly, suppressing a laugh as she raised her hand to cover her face.

Jiao Su smiled lightly, tightened his grip on Sheng Xia, and teased the little cub on the ground.

"That little eaglet will have a hard time finding a mate in the future."

It's so young and it's already made the cubs jump up and down in anger. I wonder whose they are. It would be a shame not to give them a good beating.

Suddenly, a larger eagle appeared in their field of vision. Shengxia blinked her bright almond-shaped eyes and looked at it curiously.

The eagle flew very fast, swatting the smug eaglet down with one wing and cursing angrily.

"What's there to be so smug about? If you don't study hard, you won't find a partner in the future!"

In the height of summer, the gaze shifted to the ground, where a baby eagle was being beaten by several fluffy creatures, its wings pinned down, raising dust and creating a chaotic scene.

"Are you still watching? Yang Yun is out," Jiao Su reminded her.

Shengxia's eyes lit up as she looked ahead at the composed Tie Bai and the light-footed Yang Yun.

She patted Jiao Su's arm excitedly.

"Let's go pick up Little Sheep!"

next day

Shengxia, who had just woken up, looked at the pile of new clothes on the sofa and sighed helplessly.

I want to be alone.

Does Aoki never experience creative blocks?

I hadn't even finished wearing the clothes from the previous two days when the new ones were already finished—what a sweet burden!

"Who is Jingjing? Is this the male you've set your sights on? Is he from the Fierce Tiger Tribe? I'll go and snatch him for you... and bring him back!"

The name sounds a bit feminine, but Xiaxia likes it, that's all that matters.

Aoki's clear eyes sparkled as he walked over and hugged her tightly, as if he were on steroids.

Sheng Xia's lips twitched, and she leaned softly against his chest, feeling both amused and exasperated, as she explained with a light laugh.

"I haven't taken a liking to anyone; what I mean by that is that I want some peace and quiet."

There's a chasm separating the modern world from the beast world.

Aoki smiled brightly, looking at her with doting eyes. He snuggled up and pressed his cheek against hers, then turned his head and gave her a quick puff on the lips.

A mischievous glint flashed in Sheng Xia's almond-shaped eyes. She blinked and smiled playfully, then tilted her head back and kissed his lips.

Aoki was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and returned the kiss passionately.

Tie Man rolled over, her pink eyes lit up when she saw Sheng Xia, and she was about to run over when Jiao Su, who had followed her, stopped her.

He gently held the panda cub in his arms, smiled, and put a piece of dried meat into her mouth.

The adorable panda's eyes lit up when it found food, and it immediately abandoned its plan to go find its mother, obediently tilting its head back to wait for being fed.

They ate for a while, and then, panting, Shengxia nestled in Qingmu's arms. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the little one beside her and stared wide-eyed in horror.

Little one!

Oh no, did the baby see this?

The lion's hands were still there, kneading and rubbing!

Her face flushed instantly, and she awkwardly squeezed her legs together, nudged Aoki, and whispered.

"Big lion... Ah~ Stop, the cub is at the door."

Aoki's lips reached behind Shengxia's ear, lingeringly taking a deep breath before releasing her.

"Xia, shall we go to the space?"

He was about to explode with pent-up frustration! He missed Xiaxia so much!

In the height of summer, her almond-shaped eyes shimmered with moisture, brimming with spring water. Unable to resist the temptation, she moved her mind, and two beasts appeared on the bed in the space.

Soon, Aoki pressed down on her.

The sturdy wooden bed creaked and groaned, sometimes high-pitched, sometimes low...

...

The sun was shining brightly in the afternoon.

When Shengxia and Qingmu came out, the dining table was full of delicious food, and the living room was filled with the aroma of food.

Yang Yun was busy in the kitchen, Jiao Su was taking care of the cubs, Hu Xue was teaching A Ge and the others how to make deworming medicine in the yard, and Tie Bai was mopping the floor.

The peaceful and warm atmosphere made me feel great in the middle of summer.

Aoki hugged Shengxia from behind, resting his chin on her head with a satisfied look on his face: "Xia, let's go eat."

Xiaxia, you've worked so hard, playing so many new tricks with him and shouting so loudly. You must have been so thirsty and hungry.

Shengxia had no idea that Qingmu's mind was full of lewd thoughts. She swallowed hard as she looked at the food and walked over with light steps.
