Tang Qiao's face grew increasingly gloomy, and she reluctantly replied, "I know."
Tang Yue noticed Tang Qiao's unhappiness, so he moved closer to her and whispered to comfort her, "It's just a cub, the wolf lord isn't looking for a mate."
"How could I not know?!" Tang Qiao seemed to have her thoughts exposed, her voice loud, as if she were trying to cover something up, "Why are you saying all this?! Even if the Wolf Lord has found a mate and has his own cubs, I will still respect the Wolf Lord's wife and cubs!"
All the wolves present froze on the spot, staring at her with strange expressions.
"What are you looking at?!" Tang Qiao retorted, pointing at the Ganoderma lucidum on the ground. "If the Ganoderma lucidum isn't treated soon, it will lose its effectiveness!"
"Alright, alright, hurry up and move the Ganoderma lucidum to the kitchen, I'll take care of it." Master Tang waved his hand and walked towards the kitchen.
*
The hill behind the manor.
Although Zhu Hao felt nauseous from the fishy smell, he was almost vomiting from the afterimages of the surrounding scenery!
She wrapped her arms tightly around Tang Song's neck, buried her face in his chest, and closed her eyes.
Tang Song stopped in a pavilion, glanced down at Zhu Hao in his arms, frowned, and bounced her up a little, trying to make her open her eyes.
"Best wishes? Are you alright?"
[Oh no, oh no, will the cub be alright? Why does it look so pale? Did it faint from the smell of the Ganoderma lucidum?]
I wish him well, his movements made my little heart flutter.
Put her down, she'll be fine!! What's with all the swaying?!
Feeling the wind stop beside her ear, Zhu Hao slowly opened her eyes and hesitantly glanced to the side.
If she could talk, she would definitely be screaming right now.
A pavilion halfway up the mountain!
Below is a sheer cliff!
She immediately hugged Tang Song tightly.
Let her bounce around, bounce around until she dies.
Don't let her fall!
[Huh? I opened my eyes, I didn't faint, but why do I feel like I'm being hugged tighter? I'm suffocating! I can't breathe, help...]
Zhu Hao paused, loosened his grip slightly, but still held on tightly.
Tang Song's face was tense. He bent down slightly, intending to put the person down.
Zhu Hao's curled eyelashes trembled, and she hugged his neck tightly again, with even greater force than before.
"Best wishes..." Tang Song's voice was low and deep, "Let go."
Zhu Hao pressed against his chest, feeling the vibrations of Tang Song's chest through his shirt.
She knew he was talking, but she didn't dare look up! And she dared not let go!
Hold her, hold her, holding her will give me a sense of security.
Why is the cub shivering? Is it cold? It seems a little cold. The back mountain is mostly trees, and there's miasma, so it's definitely a bit chilly. I don't want to let go. I'll just hold the cub like this. I'm warm, so hold it tighter. I don't need to breathe.
Best wishes: ...
There's no need to make such a huge sacrifice. She has never seen any creature that can live without breathing, and wolves probably can't either.
She silently loosened her grip and instead clutched the back of his collar.
[Oh dear! Of all times to open a Ganoderma lucidum mushroom, you had to open it while the cub was still alive! The smell would knock the cub unconscious!!]
[Didn't I tell Tang Yue and Tang Qiao to wrap it tightly with the best materials? How come the wolf cub broke it as soon as it bumped into something? That Ganoderma lucidum is very tempting to wolves; even a little bit of its scent can excite them to the point of losing their minds, especially wolf cubs who have no self-control.]
[It's not uncommon for wolf cubs to have an overly sensitive sense of smell before, losing their minds after smelling the lingzhi mushroom and rushing towards the box. They never broke it before, so why did it break this time? Sigh... the only place unaffected by the smell is the back mountain, so I had to bring the cubs here to avoid it.]
Zhu Haoran understood why the smell was so pungent; she almost felt nauseous the moment she smelled it.
[But the tribe can't do without Ganoderma lucidum; it's an important medicine for maintaining the wolf tribe's human form. However, we can't just boil it like before, the smell won't dissipate for a month. How about having the shaman try making Ganoderma lucidum into pills? Using other herbs to suppress the smell should work, otherwise my cubs are suffering too much. Besides, this way, the Ganoderma lucidum can be preserved for a longer period.]
Sigh... It's my fault for forgetting something so important and not preparing in advance. Until the wizard makes the pill, my cub and I will have to stay in the big apartment. Sigh...
Best wishes :?
She can't touch Ganoderma lucidum, but Tang Song can. Why would Tang Song go to the big apartment with her?
That means there's only one person and one wolf left!
She wanted to avoid this situation, that's why she said she wanted to go back to the manor!
Zhu Hao, oblivious to the cliff, suddenly looked up and bumped into Tang Song's chin.
It made a thud, and it was very sturdy.
"ah!"
"ha……"
Two voices rang out simultaneously.
Tang Song and Zhu Hao were both stunned.
Zhu Hao raised her hand to rub the top of her head. She was the one who bumped into someone, so why was she in so much pain?! It felt like there was a dent on the top of her head!
Taking advantage of her letting go, Tang Song quickly put her down and took off his suit jacket to wrap around her.
His serious, cold eyes flashed with surprise. "You made a sound."
Zhu Hao was so focused on the pain in her head that she didn't even look at Tang Song and had no idea what he was saying.
Tang Song cupped her face in his hands and gently lifted her lowered head.
Zhu Hao froze on the spot, even her breathing became shallow.
The heat on her face froze her in place.
Zhu Hao stared blankly at Tang Song, as if he were a robot.
[The cub just made a sound!!! I heard it!!! There really was a sound!!!]
Zhu Hao's eyes widened, his face filled with shock.
She just... made a sound?
Is there?
She didn't hear it...
No, she can't hear me.
Tang Song stared intently at her. "You made a sound just now."
Zhu Hao blinked, and slowly lowered his hand from above his head, grasping Tang Song's wrist, his fingertips touching the veins on the inside of Tang Song's wrist.
She could feel his pulse beating faster and faster, see his ear tips twitching with excitement, his tail purring and fanning, and his chin reddened from her bumping into him.
"Say it again." Tang Song tightened his grip on her face, his gaze fixed on her lips. "Try again."
My heart skipped a beat when I wished him well.
The air was filled with the scent of Tang Song, crisp and pleasant, with the fragrance of oranges that suppressed the lingering fishy smell.
She stared into Tang Song's eyes, tried to open her lips, and exhaled.
There was no sound.
Tang Song said encouragingly, "Let's try again."
Why is there no sound? I clearly heard it just now. The cub must have forgotten how to vocalize because it hasn't spoken in a long time.
Tang Song glanced at the fair little hand on her wrist, then took her hand in return and pulled it towards his Adam's apple.
Zhu Hao was startled and quickly withdrew his hand.
Tang Song grabbed her, preventing her from escaping.
“Look, the vocal cords need to vibrate to produce sound.” Tang Song spread her curled fingertips and pressed her cool fingertips against her Adam’s apple.
The moment their skin touched, they both froze.
But Tang Song quickly recovered and earnestly taught her, "Say... well."
