Chapter 95 Jealousy again

Andrew was the first to be alert when he saw the strange male leopard behind Maria.

Although Andrew had been living with his eldest cub, Angela, and Maria's family for the past one or two years, he had long been accustomed to sharing territory with other leopards.

But the eldest cub was his own cub, Andrew's favorite cub, and Angela was also his love object. Even if they lived in Andrew's territory and never left, Andrew would not have any objection.

As for Maria and her two cubs, one of the little black leopards was a leopard that her eldest cub liked very much, and the other male leopard had left his territory early to live alone. Even if

Maria gave birth to another litter of cubs in the future, Andrew could afford to raise them.

But what's going on with this male leopard now?

Is he preparing to challenge me?

Thinking of this, Andrew threatened the leopard with a warning.

The meaning of the shout was: You are not allowed to come forward again. If you still want to come forward, don't blame me for being rude!

This threatening voice was certainly not directed at Maria, so Maria not only did not change her expression, but even quickened her pace and walked towards Andrew and his group of leopards.

It can be seen that Maria also wanted to get rid of this follower behind her.

Young male leopards actually like to challenge the strong. Faced with Andrew's active threat, if it were other leopards, they would definitely go up and do it without saying a word.

But this male leopard is different.

He had no intention of fighting with Andrew. When he saw Andrew was aggressive towards him, he just growled softly, then lowered his head, looking a little aggrieved.

Maria gradually walked away, and the young male leopard became more uneasy.

He stood there hesitating for a long time, wanting to go forward, but was wary of Andrew. However, he was unwilling to leave, so he simply lay down on the grass, squinting his big eyes, watching Maria walk over and greet the leopards one by one.

Before Maria came close, Ye Yunian observed her condition and confirmed that Maria was not injured, so Ye Yunian put down his heart that had been hanging in the air.

Seeing Maria coming over to greet them, Ye Yunian couldn't help it anymore, and roared at Maria twice, asking what was going on with this strange male leopard. It would

have been fine if she didn't mention this matter, but Maria was furious when she mentioned it.

But Maria knew that she couldn't face the innocent Ye Yunian and the others no matter how angry she was. She simply turned around and roared angrily at the male leopard in the distance.

I told you not to follow me, why did you still follow me?

Now you can see that I have my own leopard group, so get out of here!

These words were very impolite.

Even the tone sounded fierce.

But the male leopard lying there didn't move at all. After hearing Maria's roar, he even turned over, and it seemed that he was going to lie down and take a nap.

All the leopards were stunned by this scene.

Especially Andrew.

A strange leopard entered his territory. In Andrew's view, this was a challenge to his authority. Andrew must be angry.

But now the situation seems a little wrong.

First of all, the male leopard didn't want to fight with Andrew at all. He even knew that he couldn't just break into Andrew's territory. At this moment, he was lying obediently outside Andrew's territory.

More importantly, Andrew was quick to notice that both the male leopard and Maria had a lot of each other's scent on them.

Hmm.

As an experienced leopard, Andrew reacted instantly - this male leopard should be Maria's lover this time!

Ye Yunian also discovered this.

That's why he was even more shocked. The male leopard's scent was not concealed. He could easily distinguish his situation from the smell, know his gender, and naturally know his age -

hmm.

The same age as himself.

Still a young leopard!

Maria's lover this year turned out to be such a young leopard, and she was chased to the territory by this young leopard -

Ye Yunian looked at Song Yi with teasing in his eyes.

"Awoo~"

It seems that it is not your cheap father, but your cheap stepfather.

Song Yi: ...

Song Yi stretched out his paw and pressed it on Ye Yunian's head.

Although he didn't understand what a cheap stepfather was, Song Yi felt that her boyfriend was probably making fun of her, so she used this action to express her little anger.

So the next moment, Ye Yunian came forward especially considerately, stretched out his tongue and licked the hair on Song Yi's face.

Song Yi was not really angry with Ye Yunian, so he just needed to be coaxed!

The two leopards stuck together intimately, then turned around and prepared to leave.

Andrew was the first to notice it, and turned to look at his big cub: "Aww?"

Just leaving?

Ye Yunian: "Aww~"

Since Maria is fine, they have nothing to worry about, and of course they have to go back to their territory.

Ye Yunian and Song Yi have been a little anxious about Maria's matter these two days, and they haven't even patrolled their territory today!

It happened that the weather was not too hot at the moment, and Ye Yunian planned to patrol the territory with Song Yi first, and then go back together to rest.

Maria was already tired after rushing for such a long time.

Returning to her familiar territory, surrounded by familiar companions, she felt unprecedented security, so Maria also followed Angela to the center of the territory.

Andrew:?

So now I'm the only one left?

Wait.

If you guys ignore me, what if this male leopard wants to fight with me?

Angela responded from a distance: "Ah~"

I believe you.

Andrew immediately raised his head.

Well, although Angela sometimes has a bad temper, she still speaks very nicely.

Andrew felt that his heart was floating.

The next moment, Andrew stood up and prepared to take the initiative to attack.

Obviously, this male leopard is not ready to leave.

If Andrew does not care, he will only get worse.

Soon the long-lasting dry season will come.

Andrew does not want to add a competitive neighbor to himself.

Besides.

Just as Angela said, this male leopard who has just grown up is not Andrew's opponent.

Sure enough.

Seeing Andrew pounce towards him, the young male leopard stood up without thinking and quickly ran away.

Andrew chased him for about half a kilometer and then stopped.

It's not that he couldn't catch up, but there was no need to waste his energy on an opponent that was not destined to lose.

Simply put.

Instead of fighting with this male leopard, it is better to hunt for the cubs!

Maria should have ended her relationship by now, which means that two litters of cubs will be born in their territory soon next year? !

Andrew was full of energy when he thought of this.

Ye Yunian and Song Yi were patrolling their territory next to Andrew's territory. At this time, Ye Yunian suddenly sneezed.

Song Yi looked at Ye Yunian a little nervously.

For wild animals, sneezing is not a good thing.

It is often a sign of illness, and it is no wonder that Song Yi was nervous.

But Ye Yunian's sneezing this time was obviously not because he was sick. Ye Yunian didn't even feel uncomfortable anywhere, but he suddenly sneezed inexplicably.

Facing Song Yi's nervous gaze, Ye Yunian thought for a moment and comforted him.

Don't worry, I'm fine!

It must be those hateful humans who are tickling me behind my back!

The innocent photographers certainly didn't know that they were innocently blamed, and they followed Ye Yunian and Song Yi and took more and more photos.

And Song Yi didn't take Ye Yunian's explanation seriously.

Although he was not sure if this was his memory, Song Yi just remembered that being sick was a very serious matter, so for the next few days, he followed Ye Yunian nervously.

Until three days later, he saw that Ye Yunian was still able to eat, drink and sleep every day, and even in a good mood, and was willing to roll in the grass with Song Yi. After

coming out of the grass, Song Yi's hanging heart finally fell back into his stomach, and he no longer followed Ye Yunian step by step.

But he didn't expect that his action made Ye Yunian misunderstand.

So Song Yi pestered him these two days just to roll in the grass? !

Trash!

Ye Yunian was a little angry and decided to ignore Song Yi for the time being and go back to his father's house by himself!

Humph.

Ye Yunian left without saying hello to Song Yi, and turned around and ran towards Andrew's territory.

But as Ye Yunian was running, he noticed something was wrong.

Hey?

Why is there a hint of other leopards near the territory of his biological father leopard?

Ye Yunian carefully identified it and recognized that the smell came from the young male leopard he had seen a few days ago.

Ye Yunian blinked slowly.

Wait, so this leopard hasn't left yet?

Why is he so stubborn!

Andrew was also very curious.

This male leopard obviously didn't have the courage to challenge him, nor did he have the ability to defeat him, but who gave him the courage and courage to stay near his territory!

And more importantly, this male leopard would frantically test the edge of Andrew's territory every now and then.

Yes.

This male leopard wanted to step into Andrew's territory.

But this doesn't make sense!

Leopards are solitary animals, especially males who have a strong sense of territory.

Andrew's favorite big cubs wanted to be independent after they grew up, although in the end the big cubs were reluctant to leave him, so they didn't move too far away (this was Andrew's misunderstanding).

But what about this male leopard?

He has no relationship with Andrew, and he has only had a relationship with Maria once. Does he want to be responsible for Maria forever?

Ye Yu Nian was also puzzled, and looked at his biological father, the leopard, in confusion. Could it be that this male leopard was really obsessed with Maria?

If Maria knew what the father and son were thinking, she would definitely be furious.

This lazy leopard didn't want to take responsibility, he wanted himself to take responsibility!

So what was going on?

The photographers who had been filming Maria gave the answer -

this young male leopard was named Eric, the same age as Ye Yu Nian, and this year was Eric's first time experiencing his estrus.

What a coincidence, Eric, who had just been in estrus, met Maria, who was also out looking for love.

To be honest.

Maria is actually not interested in young handsome guys.

After all, the young little fresh meat has no experience and is sloppy in his work.

So at first, when Eric came to take the initiative, Maria was prepared to refuse directly.

But as Eric gradually approached and Maria saw Eric's appearance clearly, Maria hesitated.

Young Eric was exceptionally handsome, with tight and strong muscles. He looked healthy and good at fighting.

If you have offspring with such a leopard——

The offspring should be as handsome and brave as Eric, right?

Maria was thinking about this in her mind, and Eric took the initiative to walk to Maria's side and exchange scents with her.

Maria saw it at the time, and Eric should have been in heat for several days.

At this time, the male leopard should be very impatient, but Eric, who walked to Maria's side, not only did not show any impatience, but also waited for Maria very patiently and asked for her opinion.

In human terms, he is a very gentleman!

So Maria, who was still hesitant, met Eric's warm eyes and suddenly softened her heart.

Although young leopards are careless, they are not unteachable.

Maria has confidence and experience, and she believes that she can teach Eric well.

It is precisely because of Maria's momentary softness that she has brought herself such a big trouble!

Yes.

It is a trouble.

There is no information network among the leopards, so naturally they don't know Eric's situation.

But the photographers who have been traveling around the grassland know it very well!

After all, Eric's name has been spread among them a year ago.

Because Eric is the cub of the famous "gnawing leopard" generation on this grassland, he is also jokingly called the "gnawing leopard" second generation by the photographers.

"Gnawing leopard", as the name suggests, is a leopard that relies on its mother when it reaches the right age and relies on its mother for food every day.

As the descendant of the famous gnawing leopard generation, Eric has attracted much attention since his birth.

Some photographers even speculated whether Eric would also be a parasite when he grew up.

Who would have thought that this is indeed the case.

Eric is even more parasite than his parasite mother. He was forced to leave his mother until the estrus period came at the age of three.

Why was she forced?

Because Eric, who was in estrus, never thought about leaving his mother's life. It was his mother who couldn't stand this stupid and foolish son and took the initiative to leave her territory.

After noticing that his mother had left, Eric didn't think about leaving at the first time, but got up to look for her.

Who would have thought that on the way to find his mother, he met Maria, who was also in estrus.

So, Maria was "entangled" in this way.

During the estrus period, Maria was infatuated with her boyfriend, so she didn't mind sharing some food with him.

But once the estrus period was over, Maria realized something was wrong.

Why had Eric not gone out hunting for so long?

Maria was confused, so she didn't go out hunting the next day.

Eric certainly wouldn't go out hunting by himself.

So the two leopards were hungry for two days.

On the third day, Maria couldn't stand the pain of being hungry, so she went hunting by herself.

Just after she succeeded in hunting, Eric, who had been missing all the time, suddenly appeared and started to act coquettishly in front of Maria.

Maria: ...

At this time, you don't know what kind of leopard Eric is, that's too much of an underestimation of Maria's intelligence.

From that day on, Maria began to try to get rid of Eric.

But Eric was a dog-skin plaster.

Especially since this dog-skin plaster had completely lost contact with his mother not long ago, he was afraid that Maria would leave him again. Every day, as long as Maria made a little movement, he would quickly catch up.

So the tug of war between the two leopards lasted for more than a month.

This is also the reason why Maria did not come back until a few days ago.

Because Maria really couldn't get rid of Eric!

The photographers were discussing this, their voices getting more and more excited: "There were several times when Maria was about to get rid of Eric, but Eric was like he had installed a positioning system on Maria and soon caught up with her..."

Ye Yunian, who had been eavesdropping on the side: ...

So, this time when Maria went out to date, she didn't find herself a boyfriend, but a gigolo?

No wonder the father leopard wanted to fight with Eric that day, he ran away when he saw Andrew!

No!

Such a lazy leopard must not join their leopard group!

In their leopard group, everyone will go hunting.

Even when Ye Yunian and Song Yi were not yet adults, they would help the leopard group hunt together.

They don't welcome Eric who asks for food!

Ye Yunian made a decision and simply decided to go meet Eric himself.

After all, this incredibly lazy leopard never left the edge of Andrew's territory, so he was very easy to find.

Andrew saw his big cub walking towards Eric, and followed him without hesitation.

Although Andrew knew that his experienced big cub would definitely not lose in a fight, how could he bear to let the big cub fight for him?

Let him beat Eric himself!

The two male leopards walked towards Eric with great momentum, ready to completely drive away the male leopard who had been wandering around their territory!

Eric had noticed something was wrong early on, and he had already run away before Ye Yunian and Andrew arrived. Ye Yunian and Andrew were so angry! As a leopard, can't you fight them openly? Or is it because Andrew is here that Eric doesn't dare to show up? Thinking

of this, Ye Yunian suddenly turned his head and looked at Andrew: "Awooo!" Dear leopard, stay here and don't move, wait for me to beat him first! How could Andrew let his big cub take risks alone? He shook his head and refused without hesitation.

Ye Yunian hurried forward, and the two leopards put their heads close together, whispering and plotting.

Ye Yunian: "Awooo!"

Let me go first, and you follow behind me, waiting for my signal!

Andrew: "Hmm?"

What signal?

Ye Yunian: "Awooo!"

The signal to attack, when I catch up with Eric, I will call you, and you just come and beat him with me.

And don't worry, I won't get hurt!

Andrew certainly knew that his big cub was very strong and would not be easily hurt.

But let him stay where he is -

Ye Yunian hurried to comfort Andrew again.

It's not that he didn't want Andrew to come, but if Andrew followed him, Eric would definitely not show up!

Only if they catch him first, can they beat him together!

Andrew stood there, thinking for a long time.

He felt that what his big cub said made sense, so he nodded reluctantly.

Before Ye Yunian left, he did not forget to nag Ye Yunian.

Don't get hurt, don't be stubborn, send a signal immediately after catching Eric, and he will come to support him immediately!

Ye Yunian nodded repeatedly, then followed Eric's scent and ran all the way in the direction where he was hiding.

Fortunately, this time Eric seemed to have noticed that Andrew did not follow him, and he did not run away again, but lay in the bushes, observing Ye Yunian from a distance.

Ye Yunian had already discovered Eric's figure in the bushes.

Ye Yunian didn't look at him carefully when they met that day. After all, he was not interested in male leopards other than Song Yi. After realizing that Eric was not a threat, Ye Yunian lost interest in him.

But today, Ye Yunian found it strange.

Eh?

Isn't Eric a parasite?

When he was in love with Maria, he relied on Maria for food. How come Maria has been back to the leopard group for so many days, but Eric doesn't look thinner?

Ye Yunian kept his distance from Eric and carefully observed his whole body. Suddenly, he found that Eric seemed to have gained some weight recently?

No.

In the dry season when food is scarce, can you still gain weight by parasitizing your parents?

Ye Yunian was shocked.

At the same time, he was also in doubt. That's not right. Andrew would not let Eric enter his territory, and Maria would not feed Eric with the leopards' food. So Eric didn't lose weight during this period. Could it be that he hunted by himself?

Ye Yunian couldn't help but be curious and walked forward a few steps.

It was because he was closer that Ye Yunian finally found that not far from the bushes where Eric was squatting, there was a small piece of antelope meat with only the head left hanging on the branch of a big tree.

Ye Yunian:...

Isn't it hunting by itself?

Sure enough, it was not hungry enough before!

Ye Yunian was a little speechless.

But this is not a reason for Ye Yunian to let him go. Today, he must get rid of this stubborn leopard.

So Ye Yunian roared at Eric without hesitation.

It was full of threat.

Eric looked at Ye Yunian, then carefully stepped back a few steps.

Ye Yunian stepped forward.

Eric stepped back a few steps again.

Ye Yunian:?

No.

Eric, are you going to run all the time?

Yes.

Facts have proved that Eric is going to run all the time.

Hey, it’s not a fight with Ye Yunian!

Ye Yunian:...

I’m so angry. I can’t do anything with Eric again!

So what should I do now?

Ye Yunian stood where he was, staring at Eric in the distance and began to think.

Maybe it was because Ye Yunian had been thinking for a long time, or maybe it was because Ye Yunian did not give off any dangerous aura, Eric stared at Ye Yunian for a long time, and then began to approach Ye Yunian tentatively.

To be honest, Ye Yunian was not interested in Eric like this.

Strong people like to challenge strong people.

But when a strong person sees a leopard that shows weakness all the time, he will really lose his fighting power.

So after hesitating for a moment, Ye Yunian prepared to leave.

Who would have thought that at the moment when Ye Yunian turned around, Eric suddenly leaped forward -

Ye Yunian immediately turned around, angrily opened his claws and teeth, and then Eric stopped on the grass in front of Ye Yunian and turned his belly towards Ye Yunian.

?

Seeing that Ye Yunian did not respond for a long time, Eric turned his belly in another direction and rubbed his head on the grass.

Ye Yunian stretched out his claws and showed his fierce teeth. It was not right to put them down, nor was it right to put them up.

After a long time, Ye Yunian slowly put down his claws.

Who would have thought that it was this action that made Eric misunderstand something. He moved forward again and touched Ye Yunian's arm with his head. His intention to act coquettishly and show goodwill was very obvious.

No!

Eric, what are you doing?

Just when Ye Yunian was about to go crazy, an angry roar suddenly came from behind.

Ye Yunian turned around and saw a black figure quickly passing through the tall grass and heading straight towards Ye Yunian... Eric, who was showing his belly in front of him.

Ye Yunian blinked.

Oh no, it seems that he is jealous again.
