Zhu Hao's face flushed bright red.
What kind of filthy thoughts does that wolf Tang Song have on his head all day long?!
She glared at Tang Song with her grape-like eyes, and quickly flung away the chopsticks in her hand as if they were hot potatoes.
With a thud, the chopsticks slammed onto the table, scattering haphazardly across the surface.
Tang Song was startled by the noise and froze, still holding half a rib in his mouth, looking at Zhu Hao.
With her cheeks puffed out, she ignored the fur on the ground and rushed straight upstairs.
【Huh?! Why is the cub suddenly angry? Its face is all red, and it's throwing things and running away...】
Tang Song's heartfelt words gradually faded away as he ran off with his best wishes.
Zhu Hao covered his ears and strode upstairs, leaving Tang Song standing alone in the dining room.
Tang Song hesitated, chewing the pork ribs in his mouth, wondering whether he should go up and apologize.
But he didn't do anything wrong, did he?
Why did she suddenly get angry?
Tang Song spat out the rib in his mouth with disgust and muttered, "It really tastes awful."
Wolves and humans have different senses of taste. Wolves like fishy smells, while humans often use various seasonings to mask the fishy smell in their food.
Tang Song stared at the chopsticks on the table, licked the corner of his mouth, where the scent of jasmine milk seemed to linger.
It doesn't taste that bad...
Behind the stairs, the heads of several wolf cubs were piled together, like a stack of bowling balls.
They tacitly peeked out with only half an eye, secretly watching Tang Song, who was filled with doubt in the dining room.
Xiaoyan poked Xiaoxue's head with her chin, "Did you get angry at Uncle Wolf Lord just now?"
Xiaoxue shook her head, "No, no, it was Uncle Wolf Lord who forced Zhu to eat that charcoal!"
"Smack!" Xiaoxue got a whack on the forehead. "Ouch!"
Xiaoxue covered her forehead, looked up at Xiaoye with displeasure, and said angrily, "What are you doing!?"
Xiao Ye glanced at her coolly, "Idiot! That's not charcoal! That's spare ribs!"
"How could pork ribs be black?"
Xiao Ye: "Because Uncle Wolf burned the ribs."
Xiaoyan: "Oh, then why did you throw down your chopsticks and run away after wishing me well?"
Xiaoxue: "It's probably because it tastes terrible."
Xiaoyan and Xiaoye's expressions suddenly froze, their wolf ears pressed tightly against their heads, their eyes lowered like quails.
Seeing that they ignored her, Xiaoxue frowned, her earlobes twitched, and she put her hands on her hips. "Why aren't you saying anything? You must have run away because the food was so awful! The ribs have turned black..."
Xiaoxue's voice grew softer and softer. She felt a chill run down her spine, as if she were being watched by something eerie.
Xiaoxue swallowed hard, cautiously turned around, and stared straight into Tang Song's dark eyes.
"Awoo!!"
"Awoo!!"
...
The piercing howl of the wolf cub shattered the ceiling and shook the house three times.
*
at night.
Zhu Hao lay in bed, listening to Tang Song's heartfelt words.
The cub hates me, the cub doesn't hate me, hates me... doesn't hate me...
[You hate me!? No!! Let's try again!!]
[You don't hate me! You hate me...]
【Aww~ Waaah... It seems like the cub really hates me now! I just knocked on the door, but she ignored me and even locked it from the inside! Waaah...】
Zhu Hao forced a smile, silently pulled up the blanket, and covered her head, trying to shut out Tang Song's inner thoughts.
She had barely closed her eyes when Tang Song started causing trouble!
[But...we kissed indirectly...is that okay? I don't think so, right? But the cub fed me willingly, and I even took the chopsticks she had used. She was the one who initiated it...]
Zhu Hao abruptly stood up, his face flushed and tense.
[Oh dear...it's a little embarrassing to think about! Hehehe! I'm still a lone wolf, I haven't even held hands yet, and I've already lost my first kiss?]
Zhu Hao's breathing became increasingly rapid, and he clenched his teeth and pounded the blanket.
What first kiss?!
Tang Song must be out of his mind!
That's called a first kiss?!
When she used the chopsticks, her mouth didn't touch them even a tiny bit!
Tang Song is a bastard!
[Oh dear! No! I held the cub's hand!]
Zhu Hao paused in her pounding of the blanket, then brushed aside a stray strand of hair, revealing her bright red earlobes.
Oh dear! Now that I think about it, I've held a cub, pulled a cub, and even kissed a cub!!
Damn it! I'm such an idiot!
He nodded with a tight-lipped expression, expressing his deepest agreement.
[No wonder the cub was angry. And on the night I was in heat, I did something even worse. Although my memories of heat are a bit hazy, I vaguely remember being close to the cub. After I woke up, I was even thinking about the cub doing *that* in the bathroom!!]
【Waaaaah!! I'm such an idiot!!!】
Zhu Hao gripped the blanket tightly with her fingertips and involuntarily leaned closer to the wall.
【Ah!! The cub won't be my mate in the future, and I've unknowingly done so many things to offend it!! Ahhhhh!! I'm going to die!! I really...】
Upon hearing this, Zhu Hao stiffened, lowered her eyes with a slightly disappointed look, quickly got up, grabbed the blanket, and walked towards the sofa.
She didn't want to listen anymore.
With the distance between them, and Tang Song's heartfelt words no longer in her ears, Zhu Hao's flushed face subsided, and her thoughts became clearer.
She lay on her back on the sofa, her hands resting quietly on her lower abdomen, staring blankly at the ceiling, her face expressionless.
She couldn't sleep, but she closed her eyes anyway because she had to go to work the next day.
Tang Song sat on the edge of the bed, separated by a wall, with petals scattered all around her feet and a bare flower stem in her hand.
He stared at the last remaining stamen on the flower stem, his face tense, and he hesitated before muttering, "How about... we ask the cub if it's willing to stay with the wolf clan after it turns twenty-five and become the wolf lord's wife?"
Tang Song pursed his lips, raised his hand and solemnly plucked off the tiny flower stamen, whispering, "She's willing..."
The moment the words left his mouth, Tang Song unexpectedly felt a sense of relief coursing through his limbs.
Unbeknownst to them, their features, which had always been as cold as icebergs, seemed to melt away with a strange warmth, revealing a hint of excitement and anticipation.
Tang Song held the flower stamen in her hand, lay quietly on the bed, and fell asleep with a smile on her lips.
The next day, Tang Song woke up very early.
He planned to ask a few friends he didn't contact often how they pursued their partners.
When Zhu Hao's vibrating alarm woke her up, Tang Song had already been out for an hour.
She got up somewhat dazed. She didn't know when she had fallen asleep last night, her mind was foggy, and she looked terrible.
After I went downstairs, I didn't see a lively scene for the first time.
The villa was empty except for a warm breakfast on the table, still steaming.
She stood on the stairs, looking around somewhat helplessly.
Tang Qiao appeared out of nowhere, walked to the dining table expressionlessly, glanced coldly at Zhu Hao, and sneered, "What? Surprised that there aren't any wolves surrounding you? You really think you're the wolf king's wife?"
