"Ouch!" Yuan Zhizhi screamed softly, her foot slipped and she was about to fall, but Duota grabbed her with his quick eyes and hands.
He spun around and held her firmly in his arms.
At the same time, his eyes swept towards the white shadow that suddenly jumped out. His eyes darkened instantly, and murderous intent flashed across his face. His right leg had already gathered strength, and he was about to kick out fiercely.
"Ah——" Yuan Zhizhi screamed and hugged Duota's arm tightly.
[No, no, no, no~ It's like Xiaobai! Xiaobai!]
Dota's movements froze in mid-air, his eyes still fierce, but after hearing Zhizhi's shout, he slowly retracted his foot and looked down at the ground.
He saw the white shadow rolling several times on the ground, covered in mud, but it stood up suddenly. It was a little white tiger - the one he had seen in Dacheng.
Yuan Zhizhi's eyes lit up instantly, and she stared at Xiaobai excitedly, wishing she could pounce on him immediately.
But she didn't jump down immediately, instead she turned to look at Dota.
Dota's face was gloomy, his brows were deeply furrowed, and a low pressure was shrouded around him, as if he would explode with anger in the next second.
Yuan Zhizhi's big eyes flickered, and her eyes were full of seriousness.
[How did Ze Si get fatter? Why did the Great Devil suddenly become so upset?]
So she stared at Dota's face, thought about it for a while, and finally plucked up the courage to do something she had wanted to do for a long time but didn't dare to do.
She stretched out her little hand and gently touched Dota's frowned forehead. Her movements were very gentle, as if she was afraid that Dota would lose his temper in the next second.
[The big devil looks so fierce! Even fiercer than my big brother! So stop frowning so much~~]
[A frown means less blessings~~]
[The big devil smiled ~ Smile and roar more~]
[Xiaobai yelled at his friend, "Don't be so violent..."]
Dota looked at her and felt her soft little hand stroking his brow.
He said nothing, his eyes calm, and let her do whatever she wanted.
Because he could hear the tender and soft voice in her heart and knew what she wanted to do.
But Jin Wan, who was standing by, didn't understand what was going on. He only saw Yuan Zhizhi fooling around with the king's face.
He was really worried, fearing that the king would get angry and throw Zhizhi into the pond to feed the fish.
But Duota did nothing. Yuan Zhizhi slapped him twice on the left and right cheeks. Then Duota squatted down and put Yuan Zhizhi on the ground.
When Xiaobai saw this, he immediately threw himself into Yuan Zhizhi's arms.
The man and the tiger were lying in a heap. After a while, Yuan Zhizhi raised his head, held Xiaobai's face, and introduced Duota to him.
[Xiaobai Xiaobai, this looks like a big devil! ]
Dota frowned slightly, but then he remembered what the little brat had just said, "A frown means less blessings," and he relaxed his brows again.
Xiaobai stared at Dota with his amber eyes, a dangerous look in his eyes.
Dotta was familiar with that look, the look an animal gets when it senses hostility and danger.
He just glanced at the little white tiger lightly and didn't take it to heart at all.
But Yuan Zhizhi grabbed Xiaobai's ears,
[Xiaobai, it's been the Big Devil who's been protecting my nest lately! He even saved my nest!]
The hostility in Xiaobai's eyes gradually dissipated when he heard this, and his originally tense body slowly relaxed.
It lowered its head and rubbed Yuan Zhizhi's little shoulder gently with its head, as if it was acting coquettishly.
Yuan Zhizhi hugged its furry head and smiled with her eyes curved.
[Are you here to save me? ]
She had just finished muttering in her heart when the atmosphere around her changed instantly.
That familiar feeling of oppression weighed heavily on me.
Dota's face darkened, the haze in his eyes surged like a tide, and his hands tightened unconsciously.
Come save her?
Who sent this little white tiger here?
His eyes narrowed slightly, his fingertips tapped lightly, and the anger in his heart that had just subsided rose again.
But Yuan Zhizhi on the ground seemed not to notice his change. She just shook her head and said softly in her heart,
[Why did you save me? I'm so angry! ]
As she said this, she turned around, hugged Dota's arm tightly, and said in a baby voice,
[The Big Devil is so nice to me! I want to keep playing here!]
The moment these words were spoken, it was as if a gust of wind blew past, blowing away the solemn aura surrounding Duota.
He was stunned for a moment, then looked down at the little one who was hugging him and acting coquettishly, with the corners of his lips slightly raised, revealing a very faint smile.
Xiaobai sat opposite Yuan Zhizhi, with his limbs tucked in neatly, his furry tail swinging from side to side, and his round eyes tilted to look at Yuan Zhizhi, then at Duota, as if he was thinking about something.
How do you say beautiful mother?
Protect Zhizhi...if possible, save her.
But Zhizhi is not in danger now!
Then it will stay and protect her!
So it murmured "Woo" in a low voice and nodded as if it understood.
Yuan Zhizhi smiled and hugged it.
Dota looked at the man and the tiger, and the coldness in his eyes completely disappeared, leaving only calmness and a rare tranquility.
…
There has been no news from the palace or Dacheng, and Jingyang is restless at home.
So she simply handed the post to Duota, wanting to meet him.
Duota guessed that she probably knew Yuan Zhizhi was here.
Ever since the Murong Yue incident, he has protected Yuan Zhizhi very well.
Except for the palace maids serving in the main hall, no one else had ever seen Yuan Zhizhi's appearance.
But this also greatly restricted Yuan Zhizhi's range of activities. Except for the main hall, she had to be accompanied by Duota when going to the back garden.
After Xiaobai came, there was an extra layer of protection.
