Zhu Hao nudged Tang Song, but Tang Song didn't move.
She pulled hard on Tang Song's shirt, and pinched the flesh on his waist as she did so.
[Ouch~ It tickles! Why is the cub tickling me?! Ouch~]
Tang Song stiffened and loosened his grip slightly. Zhu Hao quickly withdrew from his embrace, her dark eyes fixed on him.
Tang Song's face still held the lingering fear, her jaw was tense, and her voice was hoarse, "What's wrong?"
Zhu Hao's gaze fell on his drooping tail, and she raised her hand to gesture, "What did you just say to Song Shang?"
Tang Song's face visibly stiffened. "It's nothing, just a warning to him not to lay a hand on you again."
[Why is the cub suddenly asking this? Could it have guessed something? Impossible! I haven't told anyone about my mate! I just told Song Shang. Could it be that the cub accidentally saw it?! But that doesn't make sense! Didn't I cover the cub's eyes completely? How could it have seen it?]
Zhu Hao's eyes trembled slightly. She puffed out her cheeks, her face gradually flushing red. After hesitating for a long time, she asked, "Did you... say anything else?"
"Yes!" Tang Song blurted out the truth without thinking.
"What did you say?" Zhu Hao bit her lower lip, her heart pounding, her hands sweating with nervousness. "Is it related to me?"
"Yes," Tang Song said firmly, then changed his tone the next moment, "You're too young to listen."
Best wishes: "..."
No, no! I can't say it now! What if it scares my cubs away?!
[The Zhu family is all in Beicheng right now! What if the cub gets scared and goes back to the Zhu family, abandoning me? That won't do!]
Tang Song seemed afraid that she would continue to ask questions, "Let's go back first. I'll ask for leave from the company today and won't go. I'll go tomorrow."
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran away quickly and disappeared in a flash.
Best wishes: "..."
Fine, I'll reluctantly let Tang Song go.
With a smile on his lips, Zhu Hao strolled slowly toward the central villa.
The next instant, a flash of white light appeared before my eyes, and I was lifted into the air, the scent of oranges filling my nostrils.
Zhu Hao subconsciously closed his eyes and tightly wrapped his arms around the person's neck.
A few seconds later, Zhu Hao sat on the bed in the bedroom, staring blankly at the swaying window in the room.
Why did Tang Song jump out of the window in the villa?
Why can't he just use the main entrance?
Downstairs, a bunch of wolf heads huddled together, whispering to each other.
Tang Miao exclaimed excitedly, "Did you see that?! Did you see that?! I told you the Wolf Lord had designs on Zhu Hao!!! I just saw the Wolf Lord jump out of Zhu Hao's window!!"
Tang Ting stretched out his only arm and turned Xiao Ye's head away from where he was leaning in, his face serious. "Little wolf cub, get out of the way! Don't listen!"
Little Leaf waved its paws and whimpered in dissatisfaction.
Tang Chuyi's lips twitched, and she quickly left with Xiao Ye in her arms.
Tang Wu was carrying a bunch of strange things on his back. He carefully rummaged through his pockets and pulled out a Guanyin statue that symbolizes giving children. He then brought it to the center of the wolf pack's line of sight and asked, "Who can help me deliver this to Zhu Hao?"
The wolf pack quieted down.
Tang Ting said awkwardly, "Isn't it... a bit too early?"
"Yeah...the partnership contract hasn't been signed yet."
"Not early, not early." Tang Wu narrowed his eyes slightly and shoved the Guanyin into the hands of the silent Tang Xi. "You're the most suitable. Go!"
Tang Xi, as if holding a hot potato, pushed Guanyin back immediately, "Why don't you go yourself!?"
"Alright! Alright!" Tang Miao snatched the Guanyin and hid it in her bosom. "The Wolf Lord hasn't made it public yet, and he hasn't said when the pairing ceremony will be held. Old wizard, don't make things worse!"
"I'll keep this Guanyin statue for now. When the time is right, we'll secretly give it to Zhuhao. We can't let the Wolf Lord know!"
"What can't the Wolf Lord know?" Tang Qiao rushed in from outside, her face gloomy, her sharp gaze sweeping over the wolves present.
The wolves that had been huddled together just moments before scattered instantly, looking around aimlessly, but refusing to look at Tang Qiao.
Tang Qiao's flowing hair slowly fell down, and she repeated in an ambiguous tone, "What were you talking about just now?"
"Nothing, nothing!" Tang Wu raised his hand to reassure Tang Qiao, changing the subject, "What were you doing outside just now?"
Tang Qiao's face stiffened, she took two steps back, and looked away, "It's nothing."
"Okay, then I'll go tell Madam Li's fortune first. I'm off." Tang Wu hugged his backpack tightly and disappeared in a flash.
The other wolves also made excuses to leave.
Tang Yue's leg wasn't fully healed, so he walked a step slower. Tang Qiao grabbed him immediately and asked with a stern face, "What were you talking about regarding the Wolf Lord? Why did you all stop talking as soon as I arrived?"
Tang Yue glanced at her with a complicated expression, opened his lips, but ultimately decided to keep it a secret, "It's nothing."
The fact that Wolf Lord and Zhu Hao are together is almost common knowledge among the wolves; all that's missing is a partner ceremony.
But Tang Qiao never believed it, always feeling that Zhu Hao had deceived the Wolf Lord.
Even though she appears to respect Zhu Hao on the surface, Tang Yue knows her personality very well; she can't really accept Zhu Hao, at least not now.
Seeing Tang Yue's stammering manner, Tang Qiao naturally knew that he wasn't telling the truth.
She glanced down at Tang Yue's bandaged calf, pursed her lips, said nothing, and left alone.
Tang Yue looked at her somewhat lonely figure and sighed inwardly.
He only hoped that Tang Qiao wouldn't do anything to harm Zhu Hao or the wolf clan, otherwise she might really die in the cave behind the mountain.

In front of the mirror.
Song Shang tucked in his tail and ears, looking at the bloody scratches on his body inflicted by wolf claws, his gentle eyes gradually darkening.
"Woof woof woof!" Wangcai anxiously circled around his feet, its paws carefully tugging at his trouser leg.
Song Shang looked away. "Wangcai, I'm going back to the fox clan. You'll be staying home by yourself for the next couple of days."
"Woof woof!"
"I need to figure out why Blessing is not under my control."
"Woof woof!"

The next morning.
Zhu Hao and Tang Song have agreed that Zhu Hao will no longer participate in the costume design for the Song Shang spokesperson project.
The Song business also notified the lawyers to draft a termination agreement for the contract between Song and Tang.
However, since the merchant himself was not present, formal discussions could not be held, and the matter was delayed.
Zhu Hao sat quietly at his desk, organizing the design drafts he had previously given to Song Shanghua.
Pu Zhao stared blankly at the half-finished design draft in front of him, then slowly shifted his gaze to Zhu Hao beside him.
"Don't you think it's a waste?" Pu Zhao moved to Zhu Hao's side, staring at Zhu Hao with a puzzled look as she threw all the design drafts in her hand into the shredder.
With a strange look back, he said, "No."
She now wishes she could throw away everything related to Song Shang.
unlucky!
Pu Zhao stared at the design draft in her hand that hadn't yet been put into the shredder, and stopped her before she could, "Wait! If you don't want it, can I have it?"
