Chapter 36 Going Hunting

Xia Yueke sat on the stone bed, her eyes fixed on the small stone bowl on the stone platform as if attracted by a magnet. Her little nose trembled slightly with excitement. The tempting aroma went straight into her nose, making her saliva flood her mouth.

Qian Jingyao looked at her greedy look, a doting smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he reached out and gently scratched her little nose.

"What's the rush? It's all Coco's!"

After hearing this, Xia Yueke could no longer hold back and impatiently stretched out her little paws to reach for the small stone bowl.

Just as her little paw touched the edge of the bowl, she seemed to suddenly remember something, paused abruptly, and then raised her furry little head to look at Qian Jingyao.

When Qian Jingyao saw this, the smile in his eyes became even wider. Keke really cared about him. She even noticed that he didn’t eat. This must be an invitation for him to eat with her!

Qian Jingyao rubbed Xia Yueke's head and said, "You eat it! I'll eat later!"

Xia Yueke could only nod her head. The main reason was that if she ate too much right after arriving, it would be bad and scare Qian Jingyao!

Xia Yuke immediately lowered his fox head and licked the minced meat in the bowl. As soon as the minced meat entered his mouth, the soft and tender texture and the fresh and fragrant taste instantly burst out in his mouth.

The sweetness of the vegetables mixed in was the finishing touch, making her so comfortable that her eyes narrowed into slits and a satisfied hum came from her throat.

So delicious!

Xia Yueke tasted the vegetables carefully and found that they were not the same vegetables she had eaten before.

It has a slightly salty taste, a bit like salt.

But it is clearly green, so what on earth is it?

She really wanted to ask, what kind of vegetable is this? Unfortunately, Qian Jingyao couldn't understand what he meant now!

Oh, I can only talk about it later...

Qian Jingyao watched quietly from the side, his eyes full of doting.

He whispered:

"If it tastes good, eat more. I'll make it for you every day from now on."

Xia Yueke's mouth was full, her cheeks bulging like a small ball, and she could only whimper in response.

After a while, the bowl of minced meat was empty, and Xia Yueke's belly became round like a small ball.

She burped contentedly and lay lazily on the stone bed, her little paws unconsciously rubbing her belly. Her naive look was so adorable.

Qian Jingyao walked over, slowly squatted down, and gently stroked her head with his big hands, again and again, never enough.

Xia Yuke rubbed his hand comfortably, and the soft hair brushed across Qian Jingyao's palm, making it itchy.

At this moment, Xia Yueke suddenly felt that it was a really good feeling to be taken care of wholeheartedly like this, and she felt a sense of security she had never felt before.

Xia Yueke opened her eyes slightly and looked at Qian Jingyao in front of her. A different emotion was quietly sprouting in her heart.

It seems that choosing this guy as a partner was a very correct decision!

As she thought about it, sleepiness came over her like a tide. She gradually closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Qian Jingyao looked at Xia Yueke who was sleeping, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.

He gently placed a kiss on her forehead, and then he stayed quietly beside her, his eyes never leaving her sleeping face.

The cave was very quiet, with only the occasional sound of breathing.

After a while, Qian Jingyao stood up and walked slowly to the cave entrance. He looked at the scenery outside the cave and silently planned in his heart how to better take care of Xia Yueke in the future.

He would prepare more delicious food for her, find more interesting gadgets, and build a more comfortable home for her.

He knew that from the moment he saw Xia Yueke, his life had taken on new meaning. He was willing to use everything he had to protect this lovely little female cub and watch her grow up happily under his care.

When Xia Yueke woke up, the sun had already begun to set, and the orange-red afterglow poured into the cave.

She stretched and saw Qian Jingyao sitting at the entrance of the cave, weaving something.

She crawled over curiously and found Qian Jingyao weaving a small bracelet with vines and some colorful feathers.

Qian Jingyao saw her wake up, smiled and raised his bracelet, saying:

"This is for you, do you like it?"

There was a flash of surprise in Xia Yueke's eyes, and she rubbed Qian Jingyao's arm with her little head to express her love.

Xia Yue still remembers the little wooden fox that Qian Jingyao gave her last time, and she is still wearing it around her neck!

She looked down at the little wooden fox and found it was still in its original state without any damage. Only then did she feel relieved.

Qian Jingyao gently put the bracelet on Xia Yueke's paw. The size was just right, and the colorful feathers sparkled beautifully in the afterglow.

"Coco, I'm going hunting later. How about you come with me?"

Qian Jingyao looked at Xia Yueke, his eyes full of anticipation.

Qian Jingyao is now a seventh-level orc. With his strength, ordinary hunting is a piece of cake for him.

He couldn't bear to leave Xia Yueke, the cute little cub, alone in the cave, as that would make him uneasy all day long.

When Xia Yuke heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

She had never heard of an orc taking cubs with him when hunting; this was truly unusual.

But she wouldn't refuse! She had been trapped in the tribe and had never been out, so this was a good opportunity to see the outside world.

So she nodded vigorously.

Seeing this, Qian Jingyao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After witnessing how nervous and protective Coco's brothers were last time, he knew that if he sent Coco back so quickly, it would be difficult to bring her out next time.

Qian Jingyao carefully pulled up the animal skin curtain of the cave, cleaned up the cave entrance briefly, and prepared to set off.

Xia Yueke fully expected that this time she would be held in Qian Jingyao's arms as usual.

However, unexpectedly, Qian Jingyao's body flashed and he transformed in an instant.

A snow-white fox appeared in front of Xia Yueke.

Its fur looks like it was carefully carved from the purest ice and snow, and every hair is soft and smooth.

Its eyes are like two deep sapphires, as deep as a mysterious ancient pool, and as if the cloudless blue sky has been condensed into this intoxicating blue. The flickering light in them has the fox's natural cunning, as well as tenderness and pampering.

Its ears stand upright, and the thin, pink fur inside the ears is a light silver-gray color. The ears tremble slightly, keenly capturing the subtle sounds around them.

The claws were as sharp as a carefully polished dagger. A light touch on the ground left several deep marks, demonstrating the powerful strength of a seventh-level orc.
