"What kind of game is this?" Daqing stopped making snowballs.
“You and Zai Zai are in one group, and I’ll be in another group with Atang. Let’s prepare the snowballs first, and then we’ll start throwing them.”
Daqing thought for a while, then opened his eyes wide with curiosity.
"That's good, let's play like this!"
Before Su Tang could figure out what was wrong with Hu Shen today, Hu Shen took her hand and said, "Let's start preparing the snowballs now."
As he spoke, he led Su Tang to the other side, keeping her far away from Da Qing.
The five cubs were extremely excited to see Hu Shen join in. Beastmen admire strength, and cubs are naturally inclined to be close to their fathers, although most males do not like to spend time with their cubs.
Aside from disagreements with his cubs over ownership of the sugar, Hu Shen enjoys spending time with them, whether playing or teaching them hunting skills; he is very patient with them.
That's why all five kids like to play with him.
For a moment, the little ones seemed to have springs under their feet, jumping and hopping around in the snow, having a great time.
Daqing seized the opportunity to make snowballs.
"Ah Tang, let's make snowballs too." Hu Shen's expression remained normal, as if he genuinely just wanted to join in the fun.
Su Tang didn't think much of it, assuming it was just a sudden whim of his.
He then bent down and focused intently on making a snowball.
Before long, both sides had prepared snowballs.
"A-Tang, Hu-Shen, let's begin! I'm not going to hold back!" A snowball, as high as a small hill, was piled up in front of Da-Qing, each one the size of a fist.
There were also many small snowballs piled up in front of the five cubs, but they were strangely shaped. Some were bitten out with their mouths, some were pushed out with their paws, and some were even sat out with their bottoms...
"Okay, come on, don't be shy." Hu Shen also turned to the side, revealing his snowballs.
Su Tang was rubbing one in her hand when she turned her head and her eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
You really are being very polite!
Before Su Tang could even react in shock, Da Qing had already launched his attack.
Several snowballs were thrown over, and the five little ones excitedly kicked out snowballs as well.
However, the children didn't dare to hit their mother; instead, they all aimed at Hu Shen. Without saying a word, Hu Shen stood in front of Su Tang.
With a long arm outstretched, it blocked all the snowballs that flew towards it, not one of them missing.
Taking advantage of a break, he picked up the "snowball" he had prepared beforehand from the ground, raised both hands high, and the muscles on his arms bulged out.
The next second.
A snowball so large that it would take two people to hug it was thrown precisely at Da Qing's face.
So fast! Daqing was bending down to pick up a snowball, and the smile on his face hadn't even changed when a large snowball hit him and he was buried in the snow.
"..."
Su Tang's temples throbbed.
The five cubs stared wide-eyed, then jumped away, distancing themselves from Daqing and fleeing the "battlefield."
This isn't a snowball fight, it's killing them.
A head popped out of the snow.
Daqing stared at Hushen with wide eyes, "You, why did you use such a big snowball?!"
“There’s no rule about size, is there?” Hu Shen raised an eyebrow, showing no sense of shame whatsoever.
Daqing was speechless for a moment, then thought about it and realized that was the case. He climbed out of the snow again, regained his confidence, and said, "Let's try again!"
"Let's stop playing. It's cold outside. Let's go inside and warm up by the fire, Tang. Your hands are all cold."
Hu Shen warmed Su Tang's hand in his palm and led her toward the stone house.
The five little ones were also tired of playing. They didn't want to be killed by snowballs, so they happily ran back into the house.
Daqing was left dumbfounded, feeling that he had been taken advantage of, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
Once inside, Hu Shen helped Su Tang brush the snow off her body, stayed with her by the fire for a while to make sure her hands and feet were warm, and then casually inquired about Da Qing before making an excuse to leave.
"Your Majesty, what are your orders?" Niu Lixing hurriedly came to the back of the stone house.
He was going crazy from being cooped up in the cave for ten days.
Because the king was injured, Yingjie had to handle the affairs of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain on the king's behalf, and Huming had to manage the entire tiger clan. He was all alone and really bored.
He desperately wanted Wang to assign him more tasks, but Wang just favored those two.
"Go and find out which male Yingliu has taken a fancy to recently," Hu Shen ordered coldly.
I don't know who was so blind as to provoke Ying Liu'er.
Daqing stopped circling around Yingliuer and came back to pester his Atang. He had to deal with this.
"Ying Liu'er? Is that the one Da Qing keeps calling 'sister'?" Niu Li paused for a moment, then asked uncertainly, "Your Majesty, what are you investigating Ying Liu'er for?"
Could it be that the king has fallen for another female?
His heart tightened, and he immediately knelt down, closed his eyes, and put on a look of resignation to his fate.
"Your Majesty! You mustn't!"
Hu Shen frowned. What was this bully yelling about now?
“My lord, although you are the king of beasts, it has always been the rule that a male can only have one mate. If you were to find two female mates, I would rather die than let you commit such a grave mistake!”
Hu Shen: "..."
"Who said I was looking for two partners?"
"You...you want to find out the male that Ying Liu'er has her eye on, isn't that...you want to kill her to silence her?" Niu Li was stopped by Hu Shen's dark face before he could finish the sentence.
Realizing he had overthought things, Niu Li silently shut his mouth and slapped himself.
"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong."
Yingjie is right, he'd better talk less.
Hu Shen rubbed his temples. If Ying Jie and Hu Ming weren't both busy, he really wouldn't want to let this ox do the work.
"A-Tang treats Da-Qing like family. Da-Qing likes Ying-Liu-er, so naturally I have to help him out. We must find out all the beastmen Ying-Liu-er has been in contact with, understand?"
