At lunchtime, the exhausted Mr. Axe firmly declined the staff meal and quickly left behind Liu Juan, who was also so tired she could barely stand up straight, and the two snake siblings sprawled out in a line, rushing towards the hall where the cubs were.
As for the two testosterone-fueled males, the kangaroo and the red fox, they weren't too tired all morning except for the effort of coaxing their female tutors to do all the work. Surrounded by the female tutors, they went to the restaurant for lunch first.
As for Big Axe... it was completely focused on its work, working hard and diligently, determined to finish as quickly as possible and rush back to its baby's side to feed it.
It is well known that human pets are delicate, let alone small human pets.
To teach the cubs to care for their young and prevent them from lacking empathy and regressing into primitive, bloodthirsty beasts in the absence of their parents and relatives, the lion teachers at the sanatorium specially arranged a feeding session for the cubs.
When the adorable little cub blinked its big, wet eyes, clumsily picked up food with a fork, and made a babyish "ah" sound, Cheng Shuang immediately abandoned her tiny bit of pride. After all, she was a four or five-year-old child, so it wasn't normal for a cub a year or two older than her to feed her!
The little girl happily gulped down the piece of fruit stuck in the fork, then tilted her head and bit into the jam breadstick on the other side, eating slowly bite by bite. Occasionally, her chubby paws would gently wipe the crumbs from the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief. Although not as skillful as the old man's movements, they were attentive enough.
Sun Han wiped his face, looked at Cheng Shuang, who was becoming more and more childlike and waiting for the cubs to feed her, with a complicated expression, and said to Du Jun, "Does this scene look familiar?"
Du Jun lowered his eyes silently. "Familiar!" He glanced at Du Lanshan, who had been pestered by a woman all morning and hadn't been able to get away, and then looked at Sun Han, who had a calm expression. He gave this older brother a thumbs up in his heart.
He sighed and continued, "Shuangshuang looks just like those male defenders who have fallen into the trap of the central city, so happy that they've almost forgotten what day it is!"
Both of them knew that this was the main purpose of the vacation planet, so they were just chatting for a bit and didn't really criticize the girl's behavior. In fact, seeing her cute and silly appearance made them feel much more at ease.
In the short few days in Abyss City, Cheng Shuang endured far more pressure than the other maintainers. They could guess how those dozen or so road signs came about without needing to explain. They also noticed the little girl's deathly pale face when the sea overwhelmed the entire central city.
Fortunately, the availability of a private rest room allowed the girl to vent her emotions in time; otherwise, they were really worried that she would have been driven crazy by it.
Not to mention Cheng Shuang, even adults like them, who were mentally prepared, were still deeply shaken when they saw a city destroyed in an instant.
Those tragic and desperate cries, accompanied by doubts about my own decisions, once lingered in my mind, but as adults, we all have a degree of self-interest, and these little emotions were quickly forgotten.
But the little girl has not yet developed the selfishness of an adult. She is brave, decisive, and strong, but she is still an innocent child at heart. She can feel sympathy, guilt, and self-blame, but she cannot hesitate for a moment when it comes to the choice of living. The contradictions and pain she experiences are unimaginable.
Children who are too sensible will always suffer themselves.
This living planet is the best reward the Gate of Reincarnation has given us, and the best opportunity they have worked so hard to earn for themselves. It allows her to laugh freely and briefly regain her childlike innocence. This is good; no one can stand being constantly on edge.
A mischievous smile crept across Sun Hanwen's gentle face. "I really want to see Old Axe's expression!"
Du Jun glanced at him again and said six words, "He only wants to stir up trouble!"
Sure enough, a short tiger roar rang out, but because he remembered that this place was a sanatorium, he suppressed it in his throat, which resulted in a loud snoring sound.
Mr. Axe abruptly stopped in his tracks, his tiger-like eyes glaring fiercely at the lion teacher who was carefully instructing the cubs on the correct way to feed them. He looked at the lion as if it were a scoundrel trying to seduce his female cubs.
After keenly sensing the unfriendly gaze, Teacher Lion shuddered at his own imagination.
Perhaps sensing the unusual murderous aura, the cubs, who had been eagerly lining up to be fed, shrank back uneasily, then became lost in the simple yet magical cycle of the little girl's moaning and smacking sounds.
Why is it that when it comes to eating, little pets look so much more adorable?
The cubs' eyes sparkled.
Old Axe watched with a bittersweet expression as Cheng Shuang's little face became completely absorbed in being fed; the whole tiger was at a loss.
*Sobbing* Did its baby not want it at all and not need it? (Heartbroken emoji)
When the little girl realized something was wrong, she looked up and saw Big Axe walking away dejectedly, tail drooping.
The heavy footsteps and the materialized shadows surrounding her made Cheng Shuang feel a little guilty. She quickly got up, nimbly leaped over rows of furry creatures, and rushed over like a little fireball.
Mr. Axe was hesitating whether to grab a bite at the teachers' cafeteria or find a corner to calm his aching mood when something grabbed his hind legs. The big, four-paw-walking axe felt the pain of his head hitting the ground for the first time.
Floor tiles: The world is cold and heartless; even I've been scammed.
"Awoooooo!" Big Axe, don't go!
Upon hearing the familiar, sweet, childlike voice, Mr. Axe's fierce expression, which had been a mixture of pain and anger due to his embarrassment in front of everyone, immediately changed from gloomy to sunny, and his fierce gaze was instantly filled with affection.
It gently swung its large tail, turned its head to look at its baby, its eyes full of longing.
The little girl held up the half-eaten breadstick, laughed, and said, "Ooh ooh! You eat it!"
Sun Han and Du Jun watched as Old Axe's eyes reddened, and he cried out, unable to contain his excitement, "My baby is worried I'll go hungry! See? My baby is most concerned about me! Did she feed you? No, right?"
Teacher Lion's lips twitched: This guy is crazy, why is he yelling at me!
And the cubs: Envy*12
"I think it's because that bread doesn't suit Shuangshuang's taste. It's topped with pork floss and sea salt? It seems like the girl has a sweet tooth when it comes to bread and pastries!" Sun Han whispered.
Du Jun sighed, "I see through it, but I won't say it!"
Du Lanshan: A day of feeling invisible and being pampered and pestered, so tiring QAQ!
Mr. Axe was eventually fed by Cheng Shuang. Despite the complicated looks from the teachers at the sanatorium and the envious gazes from the cubs, he ate with relish. Normally, he didn't smack his lips, but the sound of his smacking echoed throughout the hall.
This directly drove away all the hungry animals, including humans. The usually noisiest cub hall was unusually quiet, with only two figures, one eating and the other feeding, in perfect harmony.
