Sheng Xia blushed and said, "It's...it's broad daylight."

Pleasure in broad daylight is absolutely unacceptable!

Wolf King paused slightly, then a hint of a smile appeared in his deep eyes, radiating boundless tenderness.

He patted her head helplessly, his clear voice carrying a hint of a smile: "Don't overthink it, you should take a nap."

midsummer:……

A gentle breeze brought a touch of coolness. Wolf King calmly took her hand and led her into the room, their fingers intertwined.

The moment their fingers intertwined, fireworks burst in Shengxia's mind. She looked up and secretly glanced at the wolf king beside her. Her heart pounded uncontrollably, and waves of sweetness washed over her.

Help! How can there be such a gentle man!

It was indeed just a nap.

After settling Shengxia in, Wolf King went out. He and Yang Yun needed to process the meat they brought back quickly, as his fire-type ability to smoke the meat saved them a lot of time.

One hour later

Bright sunlight streamed in through the window.

Summer on the bed raised her hand to block the bright sun from her eyes, stretched out a big yawn, and swayed back and forth on the bed with a smile on her face.

This spring mattress is so comfortable!

I made a new duvet cover today, and I still need a duvet insert. I wish I had some cotton!

If you don't have cotton, would down jackets work too? They're lightweight and warm, and it gets really cold here during the snow season, so it's always a good idea to stock up!

Thinking of this, Sheng Xia's eyes lit up, and she smiled slyly.

"What are you thinking about that makes you so happy?" Aoki had just arrived when he saw his partner laughing happily, and he couldn't help but laugh out loud as well.

The laughter was hearty, confident, and flamboyant.

Then she took out a four-colored flower from behind her back and handed it to Shengxia with a treasure-like expression: "I just went out to collect cuckoo eggs and saw this flower. It looks a lot like a cloud. Do you like it?"

In the height of summer, he looked up and met a pair of clear eyes. A gentle breeze blew, and the golden wisps of hair on his forehead fluttered in the wind, giving him a carefree and elegant look.

Sheng Xia was stunned.

"Do you like it?" Aoki pushed the flowers forward a little further, placing them in front of Shengxia, looking at her expectantly.

As summer came to her senses, her ears quietly turned red.

Following Aoki's hand, what color was that?

Wait, that's not right, it looks like cotton!

Shengxia's eyes widened, shining as she took the flowers from his hand and examined them closely.

The cotton boll, the size of an apple, was divided into four equal parts, with colors of pink, light purple, light yellow, and white.

In the height of summer, I pulled out a little bit of the colorful cotton wool, pinched it, and it was cotton!

Giant, colorful cotton balls!!!

Just when I was worried about not having any cotton, it suddenly appeared! Sheng Xia was overjoyed and jumped up excitedly, her eyes and brows beaming with happiness.

"Aoki, you really are my Doraemon!" She jumped into Aoki's arms and gave him a big kiss on the chest.

She was stunned by this sudden surprise, her bright eyes sparkling with overwhelming joy.

"I'm glad you like it." Aoki's voice was slightly hoarse as he raised a big smile. He had deep and handsome features, and his smile was flamboyant and unrestrained.

I don't understand what kind of dream she's talking about, but as long as she's happy!

"This is cotton. Where did you find it? Is it far from the tribe? Do you have any more? Are there many?" Sheng Xia looked at Qing Mu with bright, expectant eyes.

Aoki scratched his head, unsure which answer to give.

“There are many more on the outskirts of the Yafatu Forest,” Aoki said with a smile, his voice deep and pleasant.

In the sweltering summer, I had no mood to appreciate his excellent voice and appearance; all I could do was eagerly gather all the cotton back!

"Let's go, call Wolf King and Sheep Cloud, we'll go over there now and transplant all the cotton into the space." Sheng Xia's eyes shone brightly, like stars, and her clear, melodious voice carried a hint of nervousness.

How can I not be nervous?

This is the cotton she's been longing for!

If she arrives even a moment too late and is discovered and taken away by another discerning beast, where will she go to cry?

“Okay, I’ll go call them.” He didn’t ask any questions and turned to go outside to call the other two beasts.

Yang Yun and Lang Jun were smoking meat outside in the yard, worried that the smoke would get too strong in the summer and also that it would blacken their new house.

Wolf King specially found an open space outside and temporarily built a straw shed, specifically for smoking meat.

One of them marinated the meat, and the other dried it; their teamwork was seamless.

"Wolf King, Sheep Cloud, put the meat away first. Summer wants us to go pick cotton," Aoki said quickly.

They helped store the smoked meat and marinated the meat that was about to be smoked, then put it in a large vat.

"What is cotton?" Yang Yun asked curiously, her eyes wide with clear eyes.

The wolf looked over, seemingly asking, "What is cotton?"

Aoki chuckled, his voice melodious: "It's the four-colored flower on the outskirts of the Yafatu Forest. In the summer, she calls it cotton. She seems to really want it."

They will find a way to get back whatever Shengxia wants!

The beasts worked quickly, cleaning up the smoked meat stall and then tidying themselves up before heading to Shengxia's room.

"Xia Zai, we're here!" Aoki, full of vigor, strode over.

midsummer:……

"Don't call me 'Xia Zai' (meaning 'baby'), I don't like it!" Sheng Xia pouted and glared at him, then added, "And don't call me 'Zai Zai' (meaning 'baby') either!"

Aoki was stunned. The word "baby" stuck in his throat, making him extremely uncomfortable. His clear eyes revealed a hint of foolishness.

He glanced at Yang Yun beside him, pouted, looked at Sheng Xia, and said in a low, aggrieved voice, "What should I call you? Did I make you hate me?"

A handsome, sunny man, over two meters tall, put on a wronged look and spoke in a coquettish tone, which made Sheng Xia shiver.

Is this some kind of tough guy shedding tears?

She brushed the goosebumps off her arms and said with a hint of disgust, "Okay, okay, I don't hate it. Just call me Shengxia."

"Hurry up, let's go dig cotton!" After saying that, Shengxia naturally walked to Wolf King's side and took his hand.

She wants to ride a wolf!

Aoki: Why are you treating people differently? Yang Yun is the same way, and I see you like him quite a bit!

Wolf King gently stroked her hair, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed into a majestic silver wolf. After his advancement, his fur became even softer and shinier.

He lowered his massive head, gently nuzzled Shengxia's neck, and placed her on his back.

"I'm leaving." The clear and melodious voice came from the silver wolf's mouth, unconsciously carrying a hint of the domineering aura unique to the wolf king.

Aoki and Yang Yun transformed themselves and followed Wolf King, heading together towards the Yafatu Forest.

This time, we went straight to our destination without lingering along the way.

Wolf King ran fast and steadily, and Sheng Xia felt no bumps at all while sitting on his back.

The scenery on both sides forms a straight line. Looking back in the height of summer, the golden lion and the white sheep leave afterimages as their four hooves run.

We arrived at our destination in less than ten minutes.

"Phew~ This is it." Aoki's breathing became a little rapid.

He looked up, his eyes shining as he gazed at Wolf King, his clear eyes filled with reverence.

Carrying a delicate female, and running so easily, the fourth-tier orc is indeed powerful!
