The next day, when it was broad daylight.
With a few cracking sounds, the owl egg finally broke, and the poor little guy survived.
After the bald-headed little guy crawled out, he looked around and the first living animal he saw was Xu Qiaoqiao.
"Coo coo." It made a soft, babyish sound. Because it had only been born a short time, it was still wet.
Moreover, since the fur hadn't fully grown in yet, those unusually large eyes looked rather strange at this time of year.
The little one looked at Xu Qiaoqiao, wondering if that was his mother.
He crawled out using both his hands and feet, but because he was not familiar with the area, he quickly fell to the ground. Fortunately, Jun Qi was there to catch him, so it wasn't a big deal and he didn't get hurt.
The little guy slowly crawled to Xu Qiaoqiao's side, sniffed her scent, and immediately felt a sense of familiarity. He affectionately rubbed his nose against Xu Qiaoqiao's.
"Coo coo".
He tried to wake Xu Qiaoqiao, so he reached out his wet hand to touch her face and rubbed it a few times, but she didn't make any other move.
"Coo coo".
Helpless, he had no choice but to give up and turn back into his eggshell.
The little guy just squatted in the eggshell, and time slowly passed until noon. By this time, his feathers had long since returned to their fluffy state, and under the sunlight, he looked even more rounded and cute.
"Coo coo".
It was clearly noon, but for those two night owls, it was still very early, and they certainly wouldn't wake up at this hour.
After finishing the eggshells, the little guy licked the liquid left on the ground and then noticed that there was a big guy lying under them.
He blinked his innocent big eyes, tilted his head, and seemed to feel the soft ground beneath his feet undulating.
What is this?
The little guy climbed onto Jun Qi's upper body. Although he had eaten his fill and his strength was gradually returning, he was still not very good at walking.
He hadn't taken more than a few steps when he suddenly fell down with a thud, and a small white dot appeared on Jun Qi's white belly.
"Coo coo".
He climbed up to Jun Qi's head and used his claws to fidget with Jun Qi's eyelids. Owls have excellent eyesight, so the first thing he noticed was the scar left behind by Jun Qi's eyes.
That's so strange.
The little guy looked at Jun Qi's scar from left to right, as if it were a novel toy. It would keep poking at it with its paws and would even climb onto Jun Qi's face, walking and crawling around everywhere.
The newborn cub is incredibly energetic and really wants someone to play with it, but at this moment, that request is definitely not going to be fulfilled.
The cub's actions were not without purpose. The important thing was that Jun Qi noticed this, but he thought Xu Qiaoqiao was just playing with him, so he slapped down with a large wing and firmly imprisoned the cub on his belly.
After finishing everything, Jun Qi fell into a deep sleep again.
"Coo coo".
The little guy frowned, wanting to break free from Jun Qi's grasp, but it was destined to be a futile effort, and he only ended up trapping himself.
It gave a small yawn, smacked its lips, and looked in Xu Qiaoqiao's direction, its eyes filled with tender affection.
The sun was setting in the west, another day was coming to an end, and as night slowly fell, the sky darkened completely and the moon rose.
Xu Qiaoqiao woke up with a yawn. Clearly, she hadn't slept enough, but the hunger in her stomach reminded her that she needed to replenish her energy.
After waking up, Xu Qiaoqiao took a minute to adjust, and only after she had completely shaken off the drowsiness did she remember the owl eggs.
Where's the egg?
Xu Qiaoqiao looked towards the spot where she had placed the egg yesterday, but there was only one cracked egg with nothing inside. She immediately went over to take a look and discovered an unfamiliar aura.
Where's the baby?
She thought for a moment, and realized that this aura seemed to be the same one she had sensed yesterday—the aura of a cub.
The scent was clearly much stronger than last night. Xu Qiaoqiao sniffed and slowly walked towards the place with the strongest smell. Soon, she found the little guy under Jun Qi's wing.
Hey!
Oh my god!
When Xu Qiaoqiao first saw the baby owl, she was incredibly excited—it was a baby owl!
Are you asleep?
She tentatively took a few steps forward to check on the cub; its breathing was stable and it had no other injuries.
Simply put, it's a very healthy cub.
Looking at the fluffy feathers, Xu Qiaoqiao couldn't resist. She went over, buried herself in them, and took a deep breath.
Wow!
Comfortable!
The baby owl still had that unique smell that comes with newborn owls, which wasn't unpleasant to Xu Qiaoqiao, and her hunger was growing stronger.
She couldn't resist stroking the cub's fur with her paws; it felt so good, so incredibly soft, like a cloud.
"Coo coo".
At this moment, Jun Qi also woke up. Unlike Xu Qiaoqiao, he immediately sensed the unfamiliar aura, which carried the unique scent of a cub. He immediately knew whose it was.
Moreover, Jun Qi also felt that there was something furry under his paws, something very small and fragile.
Jun Qi slowly spread his wings, then looked up slightly and saw the owl chick and the little hedgehog burying its face in the other's fur, its bottom wiggling, looking very happy.
Seeing that Xu Qiaoqiao hadn't realized she was awake, Jun Qi called out again and even moved a few times, which immediately snapped Xu Qiaoqiao out of her excitement about having a cub.
"Chirp!"
After Xu Qiaoqiao discovered that Jun Qi had woken up, she carried the cub and easily came to Jun Qi's side, her eyes bright and she looked very happy.
Junjun, look! The baby has hatched! So cute!
"Coo coo".
Looking at the sky outside, which had completely darkened, and then at Xu Qiaoqiao's excited expression as she sucked on the cub, Jun Qi joined in as well.
Just as the little hedgehog said, the newborn cubs have incredibly soft fur, and it's so addictive to touch and rub them.
Looking at her sleeping baby, Xu Qiaoqiao was overwhelmed with maternal love and chuckled.
She and Jun Qi also had a bit of a tiff, mainly because Xu Qiaoqiao kept tickling Jun Qi. Although she didn't use much force, she didn't know how she did it, but the places she tickled were all itchy, which made Jun Qi feel uncomfortable.
And the little hedgehog seemed to particularly like its scratched eye.
