Chapter 90 Shura Field (front)
The next day, when Qiao Suisui woke up, Zongfang had already left. She realized how huge this house was, so large that even the slightest sound echoed, and it was noticeably monotonous. She had a quick lunch, put the lion cub in its incubator, and sent a message to Luka.
As soon as I turned off the laptop screen, Luka’s video message came in.
"Sui Sui, I'll pick you up."
"No need, it's a waste of time going back and forth. I'll go back now."
Luka didn't refute, just looked at her for a few seconds and asked, "Are you unhappy?"
Qiao Suisui lowered her eyes, looking a little listless, but she smiled and said she was fine. After hanging up the video call, she went straight back to her small building. When she got off the airship, Luka was already waiting for her at the door.
Luka took the incubator from her hand, but did not go to see the cub immediately. Instead, he touched her head and held her in his arms.
"I wanted to wait until you returned to school before visiting you. I thought you would be spending the weekend with Munakata."
When Qiao Susu smelled the familiar scent on Luka, she inexplicably felt a lot more relaxed, and her insecure mood due to Zongfang's hot and cold attitude also eased.
"Luka, I've been neglecting you lately, haven't I?"
Luka's back paused, and he looked down at her, worry in his eyes. "That's not the case. Don't think like that. Sui Sui, everyone has something they want to do, and you're no exception. So don't feel burdened by this."
Qiao Susu's nose twitched, feeling a little sore. She buried her head in Luka's arms and didn't speak for a long time.
When Liberi received the message and rushed over, he saw the two of them hugging at the door from a distance. His face darkened, but when he got closer, he realized that Su Su was not in a good state. He frowned and looked at Luka, who shook his head slightly at him. The two men exchanged glances and quickly reached an agreement, neither of them asking what happened to her.
Liberi went over and coaxed her into the house, while Luka took the little lion upstairs.
The three furry little lions have grown up a lot, and their personalities can be seen from a young age. The eldest one is quiet and calm; the second one is the well-known Nao Nao, who is particularly naughty; the third one is timid, but looks the cutest and most like Luca when he was a child.
Luka placed the white lion cub in the middle of the three brothers, and the three cubs immediately came over to sniff her.
Nao Nao not only sniffed, but also opened his mouth to bite her tail. Luka slapped him aside and he somersaulted over.
Xiaobai wasn't used to the new environment, her eyes watery but she didn't cry or make a fuss. After rubbing shoulders with her brothers, she lay there quietly, looking cute and well-behaved. The eldest also lay down beside her and licked her fur with her tongue. The third one lay on the side and peeked in, observing for a while before coming over to lie down next to her brothers and sisters.
Only the devil was making a lot of noise, jumping and hopping, and making wooooing sounds. The other three ignored him. He leaned down again and pretended to pounce, but his father was watching nearby, so he didn't dare to really pounce. He made a funny fake move, and his little fat paw slipped, and he tripped himself.
Luka looked at the four cubs finally reunited, and a faint smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Downstairs, Libery put Sui Sui on his lap and they chatted in each other's ears. From time to time, he pinched her waist and looked at her legs.
"Why do you seem to have lost weight?"
"No, it's still the same."
She hadn't gained any weight during this pregnancy, and had even lost weight. The more Liberi looked at her, the more he felt he couldn't let her go wild like this.
"Take a day off from school tomorrow and have another day off. A three-day weekend is too short."
Qiao Sui Sui laughed, thinking he was also a spoiled child. "How can that be? School has just started and you're asking for leave."
Libery didn't take it seriously. He held on to her and wouldn't let go. No matter where Qiao Sui Sui wanted to go, he followed her like a magnet.
"Ash, I need to change."
The man refused to leave.
"You change yours."
Qiao Suisui frowned and looked at him without saying a word. Then the sun of the Oslan Empire stood up dejectedly and walked out of the master bedroom. As he closed the door for her, he said, "I'll wait for you downstairs."
Finally, Qiao Susu was the only one left in the room. She breathed a sigh of relief, changed into a loose dress made of comfortable fabric, lay on her bed, and stared at the ceiling in a daze.
She didn't know why Zongfang was in such a bad mood, and he didn't give her a chance to ask. They were both fine at the banquet, so could he be unhappy because of Lan Ze? Then she shook her head and denied the idea. Lan Ze was such a gentle person, never making enemies. On the contrary, Zongfang's mood was so unstable, and she didn't know if it would cause trouble for Lan Ze.
Qiao Susu sighed, turned over, and buried her face in the pillow. Her two smooth legs were draped over the end of the bed, revealing her depressed mood.
"Hey, who is this? The busy little boss finally decided to come back?"
Qiao Suisui was startled by the sudden change and sat up from the bed, looking at Karl who suddenly appeared in her room. He was lazily sitting on the table, his long legs spread wide apart without caring about his image, his body leaning back, his arms resting on the table, with an expression of watching the fun.
“Why are you here???”
"Can't you see? I'm here to urge you to pay attention to the tenants' complaints. Do you believe I'll give you a bad review?"
Qiao Susu was originally about to get angry at him for misusing his talent, but when she heard him bring up this matter, she was inexplicably speechless.
Alas, money is hard to earn and shit is hard to eat.
Qiao Susu resigned herself to her fate and got out of bed and walked towards the door. After taking two steps, she heard Karl's annoying voice again.
"return."
"What again?"
"Put your shoes on."
She looked down and found herself standing barefoot on the slightly cool floor. When she looked up again, she looked a little puzzled.
What does it have to do with him whether she wears shoes or not?
Karl looked at her wary little expression, raised his eyebrows, jumped off the table, and walked towards the door with his long legs without even looking at her.
"Your feet stink, I can smell them from here."
“???????”
She must have been stupid at school to think that Karl liked her. Qiao Suisui trotted back to put on her slippers, and then followed the man and grumbled angrily.
"You have smelly feet, your whole family has smelly feet."
She didn't notice that Karl, who was walking in front of her, adjusted his pace, walking neither too fast nor too slow, just waiting for her to catch up. At this time, a silent smile appeared on the man's face, and joy lit up his eyes, but he quickly lowered his eyes to hide the look in his eyes.
Sang Yan, who had just returned, happened to see the two people coming down from upstairs together, and a light flashed in his black eyes.
"See, Brother Yan, I told you I have the best nose. I could tell from far away that the little female had returned." Gai Meilun patted Sang Yan's shoulder excitedly, then greeted Qiao Suisui with a bright smile. A Yao, standing behind them, also raised his hand to Qiao Suisui and said 'hi' in a simple and honest manner.
Qiao Suisui happily greeted the three of them. Karl stood behind her indifferently. Although he didn't participate, he didn't show any intention of leaving. At this time, Libery came out of the kitchen with an enamel pot in his hand. Seeing Qiao Suisui standing among a group of males, the scene was unsightly.
"Sui Sui, come here."
