In the height of summer, she skillfully placed her hand on his wrist to take his pulse.

Her fair and smooth fingertips rested on her equally fair yet strong wrist, trembling slightly.

A north wind blew by, and her black bangs fluttered in the wind, then gently landed on her eyelashes, obscuring her vision.

In the sweltering summer, I simply closed my eyes and focused on feeling my pulse.

The pulse is steady and strong, nothing abnormal.

She breathed a sigh of relief, opened her eyes, and asked softly, "Little lamb, are you alright? Is there anything else that's bothering you?"

Hearing her partner's concerned voice, Yang Yun suddenly woke up and saw that Sheng Xia couldn't distinguish between dream and reality for a moment, so she raised her hand to tidy up the stray hairs on her forehead.

His beautiful almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly, a sweet feeling spreading through his heart, and he was so excited that he was about to hug her.

Seeing the concerned look in Hu Xue's eyes behind him, and the unreadable Jiao Su, he felt a pang in his heart and hesitated before pulling his outstretched arm back.

Feeling a little disappointed, I realized that the dream had ended...

If he doesn't wake up, will he and Xiaxia, the two beasts, never be separated again...?

He smiled sweetly and said, "Xiaxia, I'm fine. I just had a dream. You were the only one in the dream, and I was so happy that I didn't want to wake up."

"If... it really is just the two of us, with no one else..."

Forget it, if I know it's impossible, I shouldn't think about it anymore.

He knew all too well how cruel the beast world was, and Xiaxia needed more companions to ensure her safety.

Suddenly meeting Jiao Su's scrutinizing golden eyes, Yang Yun's heart skipped a beat. He realized then that he had blurted out his innermost thoughts!

His eyes darted around nervously, and he quickly shook his head to explain.

"Xiaxia, that's not what I meant. I was just so afraid of losing you that I lost my temper and had that dream. Without you, my beastly life has no reason to continue..."

"Xiaxia, I'm sorry, but you don't have to forgive me." Will Xiaxia hate him because of this?

No male has ever been so unreasonable, much less had such outrageous thoughts. He…

Yang Yun looked distraught, her eyes red-rimmed, and she appeared pitiful.

Sheng Xia pursed her lips, feeling so heartbroken she was almost in tears.

The little lamb is sensitive and insecure... He's not a bad person by nature, it's just that his family background makes him too insecure.

His father was the kind of person who would make him overthink things.

The tender little cabbage, with its dimmed eyes, broke the beast's heart.

Shengxia held his hand, her voice sweet and soft: "I don't blame you. I'm happy that you care about me. I don't blame you, so please don't be unhappy, okay?"

"Really?" Yang Yun raised her extremely beautiful face in surprise, her clear and clean eyes filled with lingering fear.

His Xiaxia is so nice.

Shengxia's almond-shaped eyes curved into crescents. She leaned closer, smiled, and gave him a light peck before throwing herself into his arms.

Yang Yun blushed shyly and quickly caught her, gently embracing her, her heart filled with sweetness and tenderness.

The wind was gentle and the clouds were light; the sun gradually rose to its zenith.

"Sister Xiaxia~ What should we do with him?" Fox Snow reminded them when she saw that they had finished talking.

If we don't deal with it soon, the male might run away.

His superpower is a bit strange; it seems to have hallucinogenic effects?

Knowing Xiaxia's secret, and considering he's an untrustworthy stray beast, it's best to deal with him as soon as possible.

Upon hearing this, Sheng Xia lowered her gaze to the large snake on the ground.

Suddenly, she was met with a pair of deep, dark green eyes. Those fierce eyes sent a chill down her spine, and she broke out in a cold sweat.

She gasped, her hand instinctively gripping Yang Yun's clothes tightly.

The next second, her waist tightened as Yang Yun held her tightly in his arms, and at the same time, she heard Jiao Su's clear and elegant voice in her ear.

"Xia, I'll handle things here. You guys go harvest the buckwheat. Lion Town is still waiting for us over there."

After speaking, he lifted his eyelids to look at Snake Big. His golden eyes, devoid of any emotion, looked at Snake Big as if he were looking at a dead beast.

Seeing this gave me goosebumps.

This is terrifying. This male is so unreadable, his noble demeanor is probably something only a beast god could possess.

What kind of family is this?

The snake grew increasingly terrified as it thought about it, feeling utterly hopeless about surviving.

The female is a messenger of the Beast God, and her partners are all extraordinary. This time, she's really bitten off more than she can chew...

His eyes flickered as he looked at the superpower symbol on his chest and made a difficult decision.

Upon hearing Jiao Su's words, Sheng Xia blinked. She clearly understood how the treatment would be handled, including addressing some physiological discomfort.

But she didn't say much, just nodded.

"Okay, Su Su, come back quickly after you're done." With mixed feelings, she got out of Yang Yun's arms, turned around, paused for a moment, and then walked forward decisively to make room.

I kept reassuring myself that there was no reason to pity stray animals; they had malicious intentions first, and the fact that they weren't in danger meant they had the ability to deal with it...

If it were an ordinary orc, they would probably be the ones dead now.

Being soft-hearted when you shouldn't be compassionate will only harm both the animal and yourself!

Sheng Xia convinced herself and her steps forward became much firmer. Yang Yun followed closely behind her, his eyes filled with worry.

Before I had taken more than a few steps, I heard a cold, unfamiliar, and seductive voice behind me.

"Little female~ You have a secret and don't want your partner to know it, so tell them to let me go now."

Sheng Xia was shocked. She didn't turn around immediately, but paused for a moment and pretended to be nonchalant as she continued walking forward.

"I have no secrets. Say whatever you want." With that, she turned and walked away without looking back.

Regardless of how he found out, she simply wouldn't admit it.

Anyway, there's no evidence.

The crunching sound of footsteps on the thick snow gradually faded into the distance.
