Chapter 48 The Coexistence of Cats and Dogs
Rose didn't return from outside until the sun was almost setting in the afternoon, hopping and wagging her tail.
She was also holding a bunch of flowers that she had picked up from somewhere; they were bright red and very beautiful.
Very good, very good. This guy ran off to play all afternoon and completely avoided doing his work.
Su Yun stood at the door with her hands on her hips, looking like an overly worried old woman. "So you finally decided to come back?"
"Hmm?" Rose saw Su Yun wagging her tail even more happily and happily handed over the flowers in her hand. "Look, this is the gift I brought you. The flowers in the kitchen are a bit wilted, so it's perfect to replace them. See how good I am?"
Su Yun took it and looked at it, oh dear... a bunch of brightly blooming oleanders, highly poisonous.
Now they're not just destroying houses, they've even learned to poison people.
Su Yun: "This flower is poisonous!"
Rose looked bewildered. "Impossible! How could such a beautiful flower be poisonous?"
Su Yun said expressionlessly, "And it's highly poisonous."
Rose muttered to herself, "Poisonous? Well, no wonder my previous master wouldn't let me touch it."
Su Yun: ......
If it weren't for her innocent expression, Su Yun would have thought she was holding a grudge and had deliberately poisoned her.
"Hurry up and throw it away, I have something to ask you."
"Oh!" Rose casually tossed the flowers aside and followed Su Yun. "What's wrong? What's the matter?"
"Come and take a look. What's wrong with Night Breeze's back? Why is it shedding so much fur?"
All afternoon, Ye Feng felt an itch on his back, and couldn't help but scratch it a few times. Now his back is even balder, covered in pits and bumps.
It looks like vitiligo.
Su Yun felt deeply distressed.
"It's never shed before, so why is it suddenly starting to shed? Could it be sick?" Su Yun asked worriedly.
Rose glanced at it a few times. "Oh! It's nothing, it's just the time for her to shed. I also suddenly started shedding one summer. It was a little scary at first, but it all grew back in the winter."
"molt?"
"Yes, it seems that after I grew up, I suddenly started molting. The house was covered in fur, and my owner kept complaining even after sweeping for a long time. But the fur sheds in the summer and grows back in the winter, and then I start my heat cycle the following year."
"Ah, is this what it means to be an adult?"
Rose nodded. "I guess so!"
Su Yun: "How could you have the nerve to lay a hand on a minor?"
Rose shrugged helplessly, "What can we do? There's no other male like it for miles around!"
Su Yun was dumbfounded: "Does that mean we can't survive without a male? What if the other party refuses, like now?"
Rose looked completely innocent: "How should I know? This is the first time I've ever met a male..."
Su Yun: ...
"So how did you get through it before?"
Rose: "I got lost. I couldn't find the way out of the mountains. Every time I finally managed to find my way out, it was over. This time was better. I was able to meet a handsome guy."
Su Yun was speechless: "That's no excuse for you to force yourself on me!"
Rose didn't understand, but she quickly grasped the key point: "Oh, he's an adult now, so is that okay?"
Just then, Night Breeze was about to go out to feed the chickens when he passed by two people who were discussing orc "common sense". Rose reached out her sneaky hand and patted Night Breeze's butt.
"What are you doing!" Night Wind, who had never had his butt touched before, immediately jumped up and slapped the thief's hand hard with his thick tail.
Rose reacted quickly, immediately grabbing her swollen, red hand and stepping aside.
Otherwise, Ye Feng would rush over and bite her. Ye Feng's eyes turned red, and he bared a row of sharp teeth. His throat let out a threatening roar, just like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on.
Rose immediately cowered and hid behind Su Yun, crying, "Help me!"
Su Yun watched the two people, who were on the verge of exchanging blows, speechless, especially Rose.
"Hey! You have the guts to provoke them, but not the guts to face the consequences?! Be brave, don't be a coward if you're so capable!"
Rose, a tall woman over 1.7 meters, hid behind Su Yun and said cowardly, "No, no, no... I'm incompetent, please, save me."
Su Yun: ......
Looking at Ye Feng's reddened eyes and bristling hair, he was completely furious and looked sullen.
Even Su Yun, who had never seen him angry before, was startled.
Seeing that Su Yun was still protecting the husky, Ye Feng got even angrier. She was both angry and aggrieved. She was the one who had her butt touched, but Su Yun was still on her side. Her eyes reddened and she almost burst into tears.
The kitten was frightened and almost cried. It stood there with red eyes and its fur standing on end, which made Su Yun feel very sorry for it.
Su Yun recalled how she used to soothe the frizzy kitten, and tried to gently, slowly, and carefully place a hand on the kitten's head.
Then they quietly observed.
Very good, they didn't seem to refuse.
So she gently and slowly stroked the fur, straightening each strand of the unruly hair: "It's okay, it's okay, don't be nervous, don't be nervous... it's alright..."
"She...she...she touched my butt, you pervert!" the kitten complained, feeling very wronged.
"You pervert?!" Rose retorted. "What's wrong with touching you? How does that make you a pervert? You didn't lose a piece of flesh, why are you reacting so strongly?"
"She dares to say that!" Ye Feng said, feeling wronged and angry.
“Rose!” Su Yun’s voice was full of warning.
Rose quickly shut her mouth: "Oh."
Su Yun turned around and continued to try her best to soothe her cat, "Alright, alright, it was her fault. I'll teach her a lesson later."
"Oh." Ye Feng responded silently, neither forgiving nor letting it go. He just stood there with his head down, resisting in silence, as if to say, "I won't be satisfied until you kick her out today."
Rose, however, hid behind her, clinging tightly to her shoulders, refusing to let go.
Su Yun sighed. "Alas, cats and dogs really are incompatible. It's so difficult for me to be caught in the middle."
There was no other way but to comfort each other. So she turned to Rose and said, "You didn't do anything today. Try to find something to eat, or you won't get any for dinner."
Rose's eyes widened in disbelief: "Huh? Is that so? You can't bear to let such a lovely beauty like me go without food?"
Su Yun said, "Distribution is based on work. No work means no food. Tonight's dinner is roast chicken. You can decide for yourself."
Rose's eyes lit up: Roast chicken!
"Alright, I'll go out for a walk and see if I can find any prey."
After getting rid of Rose, Su Yun focused all her attention on dealing with the heartbroken and aggrieved kitten: "Okay, okay, don't be angry. Look, Rose has gone to do her work. Keeping her around is useful, right?"
The kitten was very unwilling and said angrily, "What's the point of keeping her around?"
"Useful, useful..."
When is she leaving?
"Ah~ it'll be almost there..."
Su Yun, the master of perfunctory work, has arrived.
Night Wind was clearly dissatisfied with her answer, his eyes widening. "You! Humph!"
With that, it angrily flicked its tail and left.
Standing there dumbfounded, Su Yun shook her head and sighed, "Sigh, these days, it's getting harder and harder to fool a cat!"
For dinner, Su Yun didn't make roast chicken. Instead, to appease the angry kitten, she specially fried a pot of crispy dried fish.
The small fish, about the size of a palm, are fried until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, making them fragrant and crunchy – one of Ye Feng's favorite dishes.
Rose: "Wasn't it supposed to be roast chicken?"
Su Yun: "Eat it or don't, if you don't want to eat, then leave."
Rose gave a soft "Oh!" and then continued to eat heartily.
Su Yun picked up the largest piece and put it into Ye Feng's bowl: "Eat more, I made it especially for you."
Night Breeze didn't appreciate the gesture. Instead, she slightly raised her chin, gestured towards Rose across from her who was gnawing on a fish, and said unhappily, "Why can she eat too? She went hunting but caught nothing."
Rose chewed on the dried fish with gusto and declared, "I just made a mistake. I was too hungry to run anymore. Tomorrow, I'll definitely catch a few rabbits tomorrow!"
Night Wind: "I don't believe it!"
Rose: "Who do you think you are! Back in the day, I was a master at catching rabbits. Just you wait and see!"
Night Breeze: "You'll just go and catch the chickens we raise."
Rose: "That was just an accident."
Oh, and there was a little incident in the afternoon. She asked Rose to go hunting, but this guy went straight to their chicken coop, not only tearing down the fence but also almost forcing himself to eat more.
Fortunately, the night breeze that had gone out to lock the chicken coop arrived in time, preventing a tragedy from happening.
The good thing is that Rose ultimately failed to add any dishes; the bad thing is that Night Wind disliked her even more.
Sigh, Su Yun looked at the two people staring at each other at the dining table and felt a headache coming on.
After dinner, Rose, always restless, hopped onto a crooked tree outside to enjoy the breeze, humming a little tune and gazing at the moon.
It must be said that Rose is still very beautiful when she is not speaking. She loses her lively personality and becomes a beautiful woman in a flowing white dress under the moon.
Just like now, Rose, with her bright eyes and white teeth, long hair cascading over her shoulders, leans gently against the tree trunk, one leg half-bent, the other casually hanging down, her posture relaxed and elegant, giving off a sense of carefree immortality.
Of course, at first glance, she also looks a bit like a female ghost.
Su Yun touched her heart.
I'm determined to find this guy a set of floral shorts tomorrow, otherwise no one can stand seeing him like that in the middle of the night.
Su Yun took a few deep breaths to calm herself down before walking to the tree and looking up at the roses, saying, "I've tidied up your room. Remember to lock the door to the little house next door when you get back tonight. Shout if anything happens, we can hear you."
Although this girl wasn't particular about where she slept, Su Yun still arranged a place for her to stay in another courtyard very close to her own. He tidied it up a bit and prepared a nest for her.
Rose doesn't care much about where she sleeps; she can sleep almost anywhere, even up in a tree.
But upon hearing Su Yun's arrangement, she obediently replied, "Oh! I understand!"
"Okay. It's alright then, I'll go back to sleep first!" Su Yun had worked all day and hadn't slept well last night, so her eyelids were drooping and she wasn't in the mood to watch the moon with her. Just as she was yawning and about to go back to her room...
Rose spoke softly, "Alas, what is love in this world that makes people willing to die for it?"
Upon hearing this, Su Yun nearly slipped and fell, her expression as if she had seen a ghost. What? Even huskies have learned to express their feelings about love?
This... this... you've pledged your lives to each other, and this is only the second day since you met?
Wake up, sis!
There are too many flaws to even begin to criticize.
Su Yun stared at the white shadow in the tree with a strange expression, asking himself, "Do you know what you're saying?"
As expected, Rose looked blank when she heard her question: "I don't know, isn't that what the books say?"
Su Yun got the answer she expected. This guy had learned a bunch of corny flirting techniques from somewhere and was using them with great skill.
Oh no, this child is hopeless!
