Zhu Hao blushed and quickly shook his head.
Without a word, Zhuo Shishan handed her phone to Zhu Hao, her eyes sparkling with a gossipy smile.
Zhu Hao bit her lower lip, hung up the phone, and instead sent a message to Tang Song, telling her that she would be back soon.
After sending the message, I put my phone in my pocket and started tidying up the design drafts on my desk.
The design draft was held down by a fair hand. Zhu Hao looked up and met Zhuo Shishan's teasing gaze. Her face turned even redder, like a strawberry mochi that had been exposed, soft and sweet, with a hint of strawberry fragrance and shyness.
"I didn't realize until now that President Tang is so clingy!" Zhuo Shishan exclaimed, her eyes widening dramatically and her eyebrows curving into crescents.
Zhu Hao snatched the design draft, stomped her foot angrily, took out her phone, and opened the memo that she had shown Zhuo Shishan countless times. "He and I are not in the kind of relationship you think!"
Zhuo Shishan has always mistakenly believed that she and Tang Song are in a romantic relationship. She has explained this many times in the past two days, but Zhuo Shishan still doesn't believe her. She just smiles meaningfully, as if she knows everything.
Zhu Hao bit her lower lip and shoved the phone in front of her, "Why don't you ask Tang Song about our relationship!?"
Zhuo Shishan instantly deflated, pulled back, and slumped into the chair without any regard for her image, muttering softly, "You clearly like President Tang... President Tang clearly likes you too, why deny it? I'm not blind."
Zhu looked up, not understanding what she was saying, and lowered his eyes with some regret.
Zhuo Shishan was half right. She liked Tang Song, but Tang Song's liking for her was like liking a cub, not liking for a woman.
How do you explain this to a normal human being?
He pursed his lips, looking downcast as he sluggishly packed his things.
"Hey! I said..." Zhuo Shishan suddenly stood up, but Zhu Hao was no longer in the dressing room.
She looked at her assistant beside her, "Where is he?"
The assistant pointed to the wide-open door. "Let's go."
Zhuo Shishan: "..."

As soon as Zhu Hao stepped downstairs, he saw that familiar Rolls-Royce.
She patted her cheeks to cool them down and jogged toward the car.
[Hmph! Does the cub even know how to come down?! It's been two days! I've only seen the cub for less than an hour each day!! What does that mean?! There are 24 hours in a day!! I only occupy one twenty-fourth of the cub's weight!!]
Zhu Hao pursed her lips slightly, a smile involuntarily creeping onto her face.
She opened the car door, darted inside, put down her bag, and closed the door behind her.
Like a model student, he placed his hands on his knees, his round, bright grape-like eyes staring intently at Tang Song.
【Aww~ Such an adorable cub!! Aww~ Such an adorable cub, I'll allow myself to only occupy one twenty-fourth of my time with her!】
Zhu Hao shook her head slightly, shook her bangs, and then raised her hand to smooth her slightly messy hair, suppressing the joy in her eyes.
She knew that Tang Song's current feelings were based on the fact that she was a cub.
But she wasn't sure if Tang Song would still have these feelings after he started treating her as a woman, or rather, when he started seeing her as a woman.
However, she didn't want to know the answer, nor did she dare to know.
She dared not reveal her own feelings, fearing that if she did, even these warm moments would be gone.
She loves her life now, living with the wolf pack. No wolf discriminates against her, and no wolf forces her to do anything under the guise of doing what's best for her.
It's already good enough as it is now.
After all, it was never going to be possible for her and Tang Song.
A wolf pack's mate needs to be strong and beautiful, especially the wolf king; she completely does not meet the wolf pack's requirements for a mate.
After the lesson Tang Song gave her about partners, she now understands that in the eyes of the wolf clan, there is no such thing as dating; if it's a good fit, they'll be together, and if it's not, they'll separate.
Once they decide to be together, they will not change their minds, and they will not change partners unless one of them dies.
So she didn't even have the courage to confess her feelings to Tang Song.
"Let's go." Tang Song closed the laptop on his lap and looked ahead.
The car started slowly. Zhu Hao licked his lips and sat down facing forward.
His peripheral vision kept lingering on the rear of the leather seat.
I feel a pang of regret; why can only a partner touch its tail and ears?
Sigh~
You can only look but not touch; it's like an invitation to commit a crime!
Zhu Hao forced himself to look away, staring intently at the canvas hanging in front of him.
【Hmm~ Is the cub tired? It doesn't seem as energetic as before. Sigh~ It seems that work not only ages wolves quickly, but also cubs.】
Zhu Hao bit her lower lip hard, her fingertips gripping the leather seat beneath her.
Has she aged?
Really?!
She was a beautiful young woman in her twenties.
In Tang Song's words, they are either unintelligent cubs or old people!
No wonder Tang Song is still single at thirty!
Serves you right!!
Tang Song shuddered slightly, his nose twitching.
[Huh? I feel like someone's insulting me? Is it just my imagination? The insults are pretty vulgar...]
Best wishes: "..."

I slept well all night.
The next day, Zhu Hao got up very early; she had an early morning class that day.
When Zhu Hao came downstairs, all the wolves in the villa got up.
She immediately spotted Tang Qiao and Tang Yue, their faces covered in injuries, sitting at the table.
Zhu Hao's gaze froze for a moment, only then remembering that Tang Song had thrown Tang Qiao into the so-called cave in the back mountain.
If you count the time, three days have already passed.
Tang Qiao returned, but her body was visibly covered in injuries.
Zhu Hao stood hesitantly at the top of the stairs, unsure whether to go forward.
"Best wishes! Best wishes! You're up!!" Xiaoxue rushed to her, took her hand, and exclaimed, "Come on! Come on! Teacher Tang made some small cakes!"
Even though Xiaoxue was just a young wolf cub who hadn't grown up, she was very strong, and Zhuhao was pulled to the table.
"Best wishes! Best wishes! Have a little cake!" Xiaoyan pushed a plate in front of Zhuhao, which contained a cream cake shaped like a little wolf cub.
Tang Qiao looked up and met Zhu Hao's gaze.
Zhu Hao gave a slightly stiff smile, while Tang Qiao lowered her eyes, seemingly ignoring Zhu Hao as if she didn't see her at all.
Zhu Haohao's brows furrowed slightly, and she stopped pressuring him.
After all, Tang Qiao was a wolf who harbored prejudice against her. No matter what she did, she would be misunderstood. It was best to keep to herself and not interfere with each other.
The moment Zhu Hao sat down, Tang Qiao jumped up, the chair legs scraping against the floor with a screeching sound, then turned and left without a word.
All the wolves were embarrassed. Tang Yue looked worriedly in the direction where Tang Qiao had disappeared, and explained to Zhu Hao with a slightly helpless expression, "She may not have recovered from her injuries and doesn't have much of an appetite."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Yue limped away, saying, "I'll go check on her first."
Zhu Hao's dark gaze fell on Tang Yue's legs. His left leg was wrapped in thick gauze, but it still looked a size smaller than his right leg.
Xiaoxue quietly crouched down in front of her, "Tang Yue disappeared for two days. The wizard sister said that Tang Yue went to help Tang Qiao take the punishment. The flesh on his legs was bitten off, leaving only bones!"
