Chapter 194
When seeing Huixue crying, the one who reacted the most was Wubai.
The leopard's eyes blinked foolishly twice, and he stepped back in fear: "This has nothing to do with me. You little wolf definitely didn't cry because of me. I'm leaving now, we'll fight next time!"
Wu Bai ran away quickly, fearing that he would be blamed if he was a step slower.
How unfair it is for him.
Chen Zui and the other two didn't care about him at all. Hui Xue wondered why he was crying. It seemed that his head didn't hurt enough to make him cry. It should be said that even when he was injured more seriously, he never cried because of the pain.
Chen Zui looked at the tear marks on Huixue's face and felt inexplicably distressed.
He held Huixue, who was so small compared to him, on his lap and patted her gently: "What happened?"
He had never seen Huixue look so miserable before.
Gray Snow couldn't explain it; it was too complicated for a wolf like him. After hesitating for a long time, he could only say one sentence clearly: "I like your name."
This was the most unexpected answer for Chen. He wondered what was going on in the little wolf's head.
But fortunately, it looks like everything is fine now.
The welcoming dinner for them was both sumptuous and simple. It was sumptuous because there was lots of meat, and it was simple because there was only meat.
The leopards gathered together.
Old Leopard King was not feeling well and could not attend, so Chen Zuita's second uncle presided over the event.
His second uncle held up a deer leg and said, "Our little one is back!"
The leopards roared one after another to celebrate his return. It seemed that everyone was very friendly to him, the second generation of leopards. Chen Zui learned that the leopard group was formed together in the generation of the original grandfather. Over the years, these leopards have never been separated except for death, and have been passed down from generation to generation.
The feelings are very deep.
The dinner officially began, but Chen Zui really couldn't bring himself to eat the bloody raw meat.
"Everyone--"
He spoke and everyone looked at him.
Chen Zui: "I recently learned a skill outside that can make our food taste better. Let me show you. It requires something called fire. Don't be afraid, but don't touch it either, because fire is very hot."
Everyone waited curiously.
Chen Zui, in orc form, snapped his fingers, and flames shot out from his fingertips like magic, becoming light in the night.
Suddenly the leopards became noisy, the brave ones moved forward, and the timid ones retreated.
Huixue looked at Chen Zui, because he looked like a star falling on the ground because of the fire. In fact, he always thought that Chen Zui's action of creating fire was very handsome.
He didn't know it was called snapping fingers.
I just secretly rubbed my fingers like Chen Zui did, but naturally nothing came out.
Chen Zui was directing the barbecue. Even though he repeatedly warned them, some curious leopards still touched the fire. However, after a leopard got burned, everyone became much more obedient. But there were also some with strange ideas. For example, Wu Bai insisted on trying how hot it was, and as a result, a piece of the white hair on his paw was burnt.
He wailed and everyone laughed.
When the smell of barbecue began to waft, everyone fell silent.
Chen Zui taught them how to roast and to what degree it was considered cooked. However, many leopards used the excuse of tasting the meat to see if it was done and tasted it from beginning to end. By the time the meat was really cooked, only the size of a palm was left.
Because of the fire brought by Chen Zui, their gathering place was particularly lively that night.
"belch--"
Huixue, who was lying inside, couldn't stop burping. He had been fed by the leopards all night. He was too embarrassed to refuse everyone's care and ate so much that his abdominal muscles were no longer visible.
At this moment, he was lying on the ground with his arms and legs spread out, his belly bulging.
Chen Zui's hand fell on him, rubbing him in clockwise circles: "Why do you eat so much?"
Huixue: "Tonight's meat, hiccup - is especially delicious hiccup -"
Chen Zui was amused by him and closed his eyes just to listen to the sound. The wolf sleeping next to him turned into a cackling chicken.
——
Chen Zui woke up very early, and the first thing he did was to go see his seriously ill father. After all, he borrowed the original owner's identity and felt that he still had to take part of the responsibility.
Before he had even turned the corner along the hillside, he saw his seriously ill father sitting cross-legged on a rock, eating with such relish that he looked completely different from the man who seemed to be on his last breath yesterday.
After eating, it stretched its muscles for a while, waving its claws vigorously and quickly.
Chen Zui stepped back and after thinking for a while he understood what was going on. He looked at the leopards who were still sleeping, pretended to know nothing and went into the woods. Soon he came back with many super wide leaves.
The leopards woke up and greeted him.
Huixue had been looking for him since she woke up. The uneasiness in her eyes disappeared when she saw him, and she ran to his side: "Where have you been? What are you going to do with these leaves?"
"Make a curtain."
This is another thing Huixue doesn’t understand. What is a curtain?
"What can I do?" He followed Chen Zui around and around, and never left Chen Zui for more than a step since Chen Zui came back. He was even closer to Chen Zui than his tail.
Chen Zui handed the leaves to him and said, "Clean the leaves."
Huixue took on the task.
As Chen began to drive the trunk into the ground near his dwelling, leopards would occasionally come over and ask what he was doing and if he needed help. Even though Chen didn't need their help, several of them stayed to watch him.
Chen Zui inserted the last trunk and bumped into something as he stepped back. He turned around and saw Huixue holding the leaves, looking up at him: "All the leaves have been cleared away, what else can I do?"
The tail swung back and forth.
Chen Zui was so adorable that he took the leaves and said, "Find some flowers."
"good!"
Huixue happily went to look for flowers, and glanced at the idle leopards. He felt a little proud that he had work to do while they had nothing to do.
Although Chen was most reluctant to associate Huixue and Aye together, Huixue was really becoming more and more like Aye.
Do wolves become more innocent, lively and clingy as they are raised?
He hung the leaves on the wooden rack.
Huixue was looking for flowers in the forest. There were many flowers in the forest. He wanted to find the most beautiful ones to bring back to Chen Zui. He crawled into a patch of grass to pick wild flowers blooming on the ground.
"I wonder how long it will take Xiao Zui to find out?"
"The boss had no choice but to pretend to be sick and trick him back."
Huixue, who was completely hidden by the grass, stopped and looked forward through the gap in the grass. There was a leopard and a peacock. He remembered that they were a pair.
"Yeah, who would be willing to let their child wander around outside, not knowing whether he's dead or alive? I think Xiao Zui has become more stable this time, so he should understand."
"The boss seems to be thinking that since Xiao Zui is back, he'll be in a good mood and his illness will gradually get better."
The two of them walked away talking.
Huixue didn't expect that she would hear such a big secret.
Chen Zui only came back with a bunch of flowers after he had hung all the leaves with gray snow. He was not as excited as before and just worked silently.
After a whole day of work, a new area separated by leaves and flowers was created in the leopard gathering area, which could not be seen from the outside.
Everyone was very confused, but some leopards thought that what Chen Zui made was very beautiful, so they started to imitate him and make it.
"You can put your treasures here." Chen Zui pointed to the niche he dug out on the mountain wall.
Huixue was originally curious about what it was for, but after hearing what Chen Zui said, he looked at Chen Zui with eyes full of admiration and disbelief. How could he be so smart!
"Can I use all of these?"
"Well, they're all for you."
Huixue was so excited that he pounced on Chen Zui, turned back into a wolf, knocked Chen Zui to the ground, licked Chen Zui with his tongue, and rubbed his furry head against Chen Zui.
Chen Zui was really confused. Were all wolves like this? Or was Huixue simply a bit like Aye?
In a trance, I seemed to have returned to the days when I lived with A Ye.
The little wolf that never tired of pouncing on him was still alive.
Huixue licked Chen Zui's face again before he realized what he was doing. The little wolf on Chen Zui's body jumped away, turned its back to him, picked up the gifts everyone had given him, and placed them one by one on the alcove.
Pretending nothing had happened, he kept muttering, "Put this here, put this here..."
There was a hint of worry in Chen Zui's eyes when he looked at Huixue. If this continued, he would begin to doubt his feelings for A Ye.
He admitted that he was a bit abnormal in some aspects, but definitely not in this aspect.
Huixue is Huixue, and Aye is Aye.
Huixue couldn't sleep. He was thinking about the secret he knew and was not sure whether he should tell Chen Zui.
His father and everyone else are actually kind-hearted. Living with his family is safe and provides companionship.
Wolves are pack animals so he understood.
He also hoped that Chen Zui could stay, but he was afraid that Chen Zui would know the truth and choose to leave.
Huixue felt a headache coming up and decided to put this issue aside for the time being.
He looked towards the alcove, then carefully stood up and moved one of the objects to a new position.
Lie down again.
After a while he got up again and put the things he had just moved back.
Huixue tossed and turned over and over again. These were very precious things, and he had to display them in the best possible way.
The emerald green eyes stared brightly in the darkness.
After he stood up again, the leopard's tail wrapped around his waist and pulled him back into Chen Zui's arms.
Chen Zui, still without opening his eyes, said lazily, "Why are you bothering with sleep?"
Huixue: "Did I wake you up?"
Chen Zui finally opened his eyes and said, "You've messed with those things eight hundred times today. If you mess with them again, they'll break."
Huixue pursed his lips. Okay, he stopped moving.
He looked at Chen Zui and thought of the problem he had temporarily put aside. Although he was not sure whether to tell him or not, he was sure that he did not want to keep any secrets from Chen Zui.
"I have something to tell you."
"What's up?"
Chen Zui's hand fell on Huixue's ear and pinched it playfully.
"Actually...your father is not sick." He was worried about Chen Zui and rushed over and hugged Chen Zui.
"But he lied to you because he wanted you to come back. He was worried that you were not doing well out there, and he missed you."
Chen Zui: "How did you know?"
Huixue told him what happened when she went to pick flowers: "Actually, everyone misses you very much. Although it's a bit hard to be deceived, it's better than your father really being sick and dying, right?"
Chen Zui remained silent with a serious expression, and Huixue held his hand tighter and tighter.
After a long while, Chen Zui sighed: "You're right, it's better than actually getting sick."
Huixue finally dared to loosen her grip on his hand.
Chen Zui opened the hand that was pinching his ear and cupped his cheek: "Thank you for telling me."
Huixue's tail started to swing again. It seemed that he had done the right thing this time.
I wanted to laugh but held it back by pursing my lips.
Very cute.
Chen Zui unconsciously moved closer, kissed him, and pried open his pursed lips.
Huixue was stunned: "Why did you bite me?"
He looked aggrieved.
