Fox Snow put away the twenty nail kits she had just taken apart and glanced at the sky outside the window.
The sun has not yet risen.
He needs to catch shrimp and collect their eggs first, then wash up and come back to sleep with his sister for a while longer.
He quietly got up, his narrow eyes still sleepy, when his gaze was suddenly drawn to the glistening feet at the foot of the bed.
He stared at her almost obsessively, just about to do something, when suddenly, Shengxia whimpered and turned over.
The blanket slipped off, revealing the hickeys on her neck.
That's where he bit me...
Fox Snow's eyes flickered, and she subconsciously held her breath, afraid of waking her.
Seeing her long eyelashes casting a shadow, her cheeks rosy, and the corners of her lips slightly upturned, sleeping soundly, Hu Xue couldn't bear to disturb her.
She opened the door very quietly and went out. Turning around, she met Aoki's clear eyes. Seeing the dark circles under his eyes, she choked for a moment, then smiled lightly.
He said in a low voice, "I'm going to get the eggs. You watch over Xiaxia."
He understands why someone would stay up all night eavesdropping...
Aoki's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly.
He immediately opened the door quietly and went in. Hu Xue saw him rub his hands and feet together to warm them up, then lifted a corner of the blanket and lay down with a smile.
The whole process felt very stealthy.
With a slight smirk, he calmly closed the door, transformed into a fiery red fox, and leaped into the air.
Upon waking up, the beast beside her had transformed into a smiling Aoki, and Shengxia accepted it well.
She stretched lazily, turned her head to look at Aoki, who was staring at her with a lovestruck expression, and smiled, mimicking the tone of a domineering CEO in a teasing voice.
Are you satisfied with what you see?
Aoki's eyes were clear, indicating he had been awake for a long time. He grinned and nodded with a bright smile, his voice deep and pleasant.
"I'm very satisfied with everything."
Seeing this made Shengxia want to hug him and kiss him.
But she didn't dare; she didn't want to do morning exercises...
The next second, Aoki's handsome face suddenly loomed larger, and a sense of oppression washed over him. Sheng Xia's eyes widened.
Feeling his vibrant energy in the early morning, even in the height of summer, my ears turned red.
Aoki smiled brightly, revealing his clean, white teeth, and gave her a quick kiss on the lips, then pinched her soft cheek.
"Do you want to sleep a little longer, or get up and eat now?"
Fox Snow and the others returned from hunting. Yang Yun and Tie Bai were busy in the kitchen, and Xia Xia could have breakfast anytime.
Shengxia grabbed Qingmu's large hand that was pinching her cheek, glared at him, and softly whined, her sweet voice carrying the nasal tone of someone who had just woken up.
"Big Lion, stop pinching my cheeks! Get up and eat!"
If I don't get up soon, I'll become a delicious breakfast...
Hmm, maybe there's lunch too?
Seeing Aoki's extremely aggressive gaze, Sheng Xia shrank back and silently added a sentence in her mind.
Perhaps there will be dinner...
Aoki gently moved his hand away, saying with a hint of regret, "Okay, then get up and eat."
When I finished washing up and went to the living room in the middle of summer, the table was already full of food. The table, which looked like half a donut, was surrounded by a circle of small fresh flowers.
Sheng Xia was stunned for a moment.
It's beautiful and romantic, but it looks a bit like a floral wreath...
"Xia, come and eat! Today we have shrimp and egg custard, and lychee jam."
Sheep, carrying freshly baked bread, walked over with light steps.
Upon seeing the bread, Shengxia's eyes lit up. She quickly walked over, sat down in her designated spot, and looked expectantly at the beautiful ice-blue tray in his hands.
"I want bread with jam!"
"good."
Upon hearing this, Yang Yun's peach blossom eyes involuntarily squinted. He placed the bread down, naturally broke it open, spread a lot of jam on it, and handed it to Sheng Xia.
"Thank you, little sheep~"
Shengxia took the bread and was about to take a bite when a cup of water reached her lips before the bread could.
She looked up in surprise and saw Yang Yun's blushing face, her almond-shaped eyes crinkling as she blinked and drank half a glass of water from his hand.
Meanwhile, the other partners took their seats with their cubs. Jiao Su sat to Sheng Xia's left, and Wolf King to her right.
Tie Baiyangyun and Hu Xue sat opposite A Ge and the others, while Qingmu shamelessly squeezed in and sat in the middle behind Sheng Xia and Lang Jun.
I ate a lot of food in the middle of summer, and it looks delicious.
Jiao Su followed her example, picked up a jam-filled bread, took a bite, paused for a moment, and continued eating without changing her expression.
The taste wasn't as amazing as he had imagined.
He has a naturally low appetite; he's content with eating as long as it fills him up, and sometimes he doesn't even need to eat.
Shengxia noticed Jiaosu's expression, and naturally took the bread from his hand and ate it, not forgetting to give him a bowl of steamed egg custard.
She turned her head and winked playfully: "You eat the steamed egg custard, don't try to take the bread from me!"
She knew that Su Su had a light palate and would find sweets cloying. The steamed egg custard had very little seasoning and a bland taste, which suited him perfectly.
Jiao Su felt a warmth in his heart, and a dazzling light flashed in his golden eyes. He gave a soft "hmm" and lowered his eyes to eat the steamed egg custard with relish, while keeping an eye on Sheng Xia out of the corner of his eye.
Seeing her holding the bread, eating it leisurely bite by bite, and then smiling sweetly as she squinted her eyes.
Seeing this made Jiao Su hungry, so she silently sped up her eating.
After finishing her bread in the sweltering summer, she felt a cool sensation on her lips and saw Jiao Su putting a little jam into her mouth with her fingertip.
His golden eyes quickly lit up.
For some reason, the food tasted better after Xiaxia ate it.
This went on for several days.
Crab Red and Mermaid Xi from the woodshed were released, and Shengxia and her group of beasts will soon follow them to their tribe.
Aoki held onto Shengxia's hands reluctantly, looking at Jiaosu with a pitiful expression.
"SuSu~ Why can't I teleport there...?"
When he learned that Xiaxia was going on a long trip without him, he felt like the sky was falling.
Upon hearing his nickname, Jiao Su twitched her golden eyes, a hint of disdain flashing across them, and explained in a flat tone.
"There is something special in the north that I can't locate."
Seeing that Aoki was about to cry, Jiao Su added, "After you go there and finish dealing with things, you can immediately take Xiaxia back to Yafatu."
This time, we're not bringing the cubs. We're only bringing Yang Yun, who cooks delicious meals, Hu Xue, who's smart, and him. The other beasts will stay at home.
The snow season is just around the corner, and the house is a better place for the kids to play than to trek outside.
As for Xiaxia's space?
That belongs to Xiaxia, so we can't rely on it too much, and neither can the kids.
Seeing the children's reluctant expressions as they left in the summer, yet their sensible attempts to hold back their tears, made her heart ache.
Her heart softened, and she turned to look at the wolf king.
"Can't we all go? The little ones are safe in the space." She couldn't bear to part with the little ones, nor could she bear to part with Wolf King and the others.
They clearly have space, but often they seem unaware of it, never actively seeking it out except for farming and tending to their fields.
The wolf king smiled indulgently and lovingly placed a kiss on her forehead.
"They have to grow up and gradually adapt to this beast world in order to survive better after they become adults."
