Zhu Hao was unaware of Tang Song's nervousness, immersed in the changes in her own body, and somewhat agitated.
She clung to the rocks of the cliff, looked up at Tang Song above, and exclaimed joyfully, "I'm alright!"
Tang Song's tightly furrowed brows did not relax; he simply slowly withdrew the claws that had been embedded in the rock.
His lips were tightly pursed, and his face showed no emotion, but Zhu Hao inexplicably saw a hint of fatherly relief in his eyes.
Zhu Hao paused, flicked his bangs, looked down at the almost 90-degree cliff below, calmed himself, and continued jumping.
This time, her movements were noticeably more practiced. She imitated the scene of wolf cubs training that she had seen before, leaping lightly into the air and then pressing herself tightly against the rock wall, gripping the small protruding rocks with both hands.
Three jumps.
She stood firmly at the bottom of the cliff, surrounded by a pack of wolves who looked on in astonishment.
"Best wishes! Best wishes! How are you so amazing?"
"Best wishes! Best wishes! You're so brave, you just jumped right down! My little wolf cub cried when he first started training! You didn't even cry!"
"Yeah, yeah! The Wolf Lord even told us to come down there to meet you! But you came down all by yourself, that's amazing! And your movements were so perfect!"
"Wonderful understanding! No wonder the Wolf Lord personally chose you as his companion... Waaaaah..."
Before he could finish speaking, the wolf's mouth, which had been so outspoken, was covered.
However, I have already heard your well wishes.
Her eyes trembled slightly, and her ears gradually turned red.
Zhu Hao looked up and saw Tang Song's tall and straight figure reflected in his eyes. His black wolf ears stood straight up in the moonlight, looking inexplicably proud, and his big tail behind him curled up elegantly, showing his happy mood.
The moon above Tang Song's head was round and large, radiating a warm and gentle yellow light that enveloped him, covering him with a cloak of tenderness.
Wishing you a smile that graces your lips and eyes that radiate tender affection.
Tang Song saw this and immediately interpreted it as Zhu Hao being afraid and even accusing him with her eyes.
Tang Song frowned, jumped down instantly, and stood at the bottom of the cliff.
The previously chattering wolf pack fell silent instantly. They sensed the oppressive and ferocious aura emanating from Tang Song, the wolf king, and scattered like quails.
Zhu Hao turned her head and looked around. The place was empty. She blinked in confusion and looked at Tang Song, who was walking towards her. "Why...did they run away again?"
【Ahhh!! The cub must be scared! I saw tears welling up in its eyes just now! Did it cry?】
Zhu Hao was stunned for a moment, watching as Tang Song quickened his pace.
A delightful orange scent wafted to my nose.
Zhu Hao's view was blocked, and she was forced to bury herself in Tang Song's arms.
Through her thick coat, she felt a large, comforting hand patting her back.
Zhu Hao pursed her lips, "I'm fine..."
"How about we call it quits?" Tang Song interrupted her. "Let's train again tomorrow. I was too impatient. I'm sorry."
Zhu Hao lay on his chest, feeling the irregular rise and fall of his chest, and seemed to hear Tang Song's chaotic heartbeat in her ears.
"I'm fine." Zhu Hao felt the rope on her wrist getting tighter and tighter, and knew that Tang Song was getting more and more nervous.
She raised her hand and slowly and hesitantly grasped Tang Song's clothes at the waist, her fingertips gradually tightening.
"I'm fine, don't worry," Zhu Hao said softly.
Tang Song's body was noticeably stiff.
He lowered his eyes, staring at Zhu Hao, who was still buried in his arms and hadn't looked up yet, his voice trembling, "Zhu Hao? You..."
Zhu Hao tilted her head back, her chin resting against his chest, her round eyes sparkling in the night, making one's heart soften. "I can hear you."
Tang Song's breath hitched, and his voice softened considerably, as if afraid of startling her, "You can hear me? You can hear everything?"
Zhu Hao smiled and nodded slightly, "Mm!"
[Holy crap!! Holy crap!! Holy crap!! Awooo~ Awooo~ Awooo~ Huge good news!!! The cub can hear me now!!! Hahahaha!! Awooo~]
Zhu Hao suddenly closed his eyes and shuddered.
Tang Song's innermost thoughts were so loud that her eardrums were about to burst.
[Awoo~ Awoo~]
Zhu Hao silently raised her hand, tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, and pressed it down discreetly.
"Okay...okay..." Tang Song tried his best to keep his voice steady, his face showing a variety of expressions, including joy, excitement, and relief, with an occasional hint of unspeakable emotion mixed in.
Zhu Hao bit her lip, "But I couldn't hear it very clearly. The sound seemed to come from the horizon, hollow and distant."
"Okay..." Tang Song's Adam's apple bobbed slightly. He carefully brushed the hair behind her ear with one hand, stared at her small ear, and lowered his voice, "Is anything uncomfortable?"
【I'm so damn stupid!! I brought the cub here for training as soon as she could hear a sound!! She must be terrified!】
[Awooo~ Awooo~ I deserve to die! Awooo!!! Will the cub hate me tonight? Awooo~]
Zhu Hao lowered her eyes, staring at the large black tail behind Tang Song that was swaying anxiously and restlessly. She paused for a moment, then said, "I'm not feeling unwell, and I'm not injured."
“I’m so happy tonight,” Zhu Hao continued to explain. “Not only can I hear again, but you also brought me to training and gave me medicine to strengthen my body.”
“These are two surprises.” Zhu Hao stared at him, her eyes full of certainty. “Two surprises that I really like.”
[Awoo~ The cub is so cute!! Awoo!! Help!!! My health bar is empty!! Awoo~]
[Awoo~ My cub! Awoo~ Mine! Mine! Hehehe! Hehehe~]
Tang Song's inner thoughts suddenly became like those of a fool, only repeating "my cub" and "hehe" over and over again.
Zhu Hao's fair face flushed crimson, her lips tightened, and her eyes remained fixed on Tang Song, refusing to move.
The love in her eyes was almost overflowing, but Tang Song was so absorbed in her own thoughts that she didn't notice Zhu Hao's affection at all.
"Let's skip practice tonight?" Tang Song said calmly after his initial excitement. "I'll go see Tang Wu to have my ears checked later."
Zhu Hao lowered her eyes, composed herself, and obediently replied, "Okay."
[Yay! The cub can hear me! La la la! I knew I was the best at raising cubs! Hahaha!!!]
Zhu Hao pursed her lips, glanced at him, and felt a strange unease.
Tang Song... does he still treat her like a cub?

On the other side, Geng Ying lay on the bed, wearing a light blue nightgown, holding a hamster plush toy in her arms, her eyes closed and her breathing shallow.
Curled up by the pillow, Song Shang stared intently at the "ugly mouse" in her arms.
The white beard twitched.
He got up, stretched irritably, and then walked gently into Geng Ying's arms.
Sharp teeth bit down hard on the tail of the "ugly mouse" and pulled it backward with all their might.
Thump!
The "ugly mouse" fell to the ground, and Geng Ying's arms were empty.
Before Geng Ying could be woken up, Song Shang rushed forward and shoved himself into her arms.
Song Shang closed his eyes, found a satisfactory position, and fell asleep with his paws outstretched.
