In the height of summer, she looked down at the ground, her long eyelashes obscuring the light in her eyes, and she bit her lower lip as she pondered the reason.
What is the source of the "cheering on" mentality?
She couldn't make something up, but luckily she had a vague recollection of a video she'd seen that specifically explained the word "加油" (jiāyóu, meaning "cheer up").
It's not a modern specialty; its origin seems to be quite ancient.
She fell into deep thought, and unconsciously opened her mouth to eat the fruit that Tie Bai had peeled and put to her lips, chewing and chewing...
As far as I can remember...
"Add oil?... Hmm... It means that when the pine oil lamps we use for lighting run out of pine oil, we add oil to keep them burning. It's like encouraging the beast to keep trying and keep moving forward."
Using it here is a bit of a stretch, but it's passable.
Aoki walked over with a bright smile, arms outstretched, then squatted down for a bear hug, affectionately rubbing his chin against the top of Summer's head.
"My Xiaxia is so amazing!"
She knows everything, has such excellent medical skills, a high level of superpowers, and can even make everyone stronger—where can you find such a wonderful female?!
His! He loves it so much...!!
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He grabbed her, picked her up, and spun her around, laughing excitedly.
Fox Snow leaned lazily against the spot where Summer had just been sitting, tilted her head to glance at Green Wood, then looked away, squinted her eyes, and took a deep, intoxicating breath.
Sister Xiaxia smells so good!
Before she could react, her gaze suddenly shot upwards. She instinctively grabbed Aoki's head, her hands clutching his golden hair.
It was too smooth and she slipped and couldn't hold on.
Like quicksand that slips through your fingers...
Her hand slipped from her hair, and she grabbed a handful of air.
With the freshly placed fruit still in her mouth, she couldn't make a sound. She was about to fall backward when her pupils dilated, and she instinctively steadied herself by adopting a koala-hugging posture.
She breathed a sigh of relief, feeling fortunate that her physical strength had increased significantly after her ability was upgraded, and that her legs were strong enough to support her entire body.
The next second, I realized something.
"Big Lion!" Shengxia said coquettishly, her face flushed.
This movement made the tall, slender Aoki, with his broad shoulders and narrow waist, appear even more petite and delicate, his waist so slender it seemed one hand could easily grasp it.
Her feet were fair and white, with a perfect curve.
Her toes were round and cute, and her nails were a light pink.
Looking at her wobbly little feet, Jiao Su's golden eyes deepened, and his heart pounded wildly.
I want to kiss you.
He took two long strides forward with a calm and composed expression, lowered his eyes, and precisely grasped the tender white soles of the feet with his large hands, about to squat down.
Suddenly, I felt a cool sensation on the soles of my feet, and a tingling, itchy feeling began to spread.
Shengxia involuntarily shrank back and looked down in surprise.
She was momentarily stunned by the golden, glassy eyes of Jiao Su Jin, but when she saw where his large hand was placed, she lowered her eyes with a hint of helplessness.
"SuSu~ The little ones are here."
Upon hearing this, Jiao Su turned her head to face Lang Ge and the others, her golden eyes glancing at them as she watched quietly.
An inexplicable pressure struck, and the silver wolf cub shuddered, instinctively adopting a defensive posture.
Realizing that this was his mother's space and there was no danger, he then noticed Jiao Su and took two steps back, feeling somewhat uneasy.
"Mom, I'm going to see the cuckoo bird."
That's terrifying!
Su Su's father didn't do anything, but a single look from him ignited his fighting spirit. It seems he needs to intensify his training...
The snow-white, curved-horned sheep was clever enough not to ask any more questions. It greeted Shengxia with a soft, chubby voice and then turned to follow.
"Mom, I'm going to play too!"
The silver and white lions ran far away before the golden lion belatedly realized that the inexplicable pressure just now was released by Su Su's father.
The purpose was to get them to leave so he could be closer to his mother?
Thinking of this, he paused, turned to look at Jiao Su, and then took off running.
He muttered to himself, "It's always the same. I'm so slow to react, I always get the short end of the stick. Why didn't my mother make me smarter?!"
Mom is so smart, it must be because of Dad!
The large beasts present heard the cub's innocent chatter and couldn't help but smile, instantly breaking the ambiguous atmosphere.
Jiao Su didn't continue to pester Sheng Xia. A barely perceptible smile flashed in her golden eyes. She lowered her gaze, placed a kiss on Sheng Xia, and stood up.
"Summer, I'm going to fish in the sea."
Facing Jiao Su's noble and otherworldly handsome face, Sheng Xia curled her toes slightly, hugged the golden head, and leaned forward.
He planted a kiss on Jiao Su's pale red lips and said with a smile, "Okay, be careful and come home soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiao Su appeared in the courtyard. He raised his hand and touched his lips, which still seemed to retain a warm and sweet touch, and felt a sweet warmth in his heart.
Filled with happiness, he stepped into the bubble.
———
This continued for several more days.
They finally absorbed all the energy in their bodies. In the biting cold of the snowy season, their hearts were burning with warmth, and they didn't know how to thank Xia Wu for healing them.
We can only deliver things to the house one basket at a time during the height of summer!
On the way back, we encountered many orcs, who excitedly chatted: "Hey, how are you? I'm level five now!"
"Me too! Me too!"
"Haha, my Xiangxiang has awakened! It's the most practical water-based superpower, we don't need to fetch water at home anymore!"
At this very moment, at the doorstep of Shengxia's home.
In the freezing cold, a row of handsome men of all kinds lined up in two rows, excitedly flirting with Sheng Xia, their backs straight as they showed off their charm.
The bewildered Sheng Xia and her family stared at each other blankly.
In the height of summer, he thought his friends were trying to find him potential partners, and he was carefully considering how to say no...
Her partners assumed she was looking for a new mate and would choose from among the males, so they silently waited by her side for her to speak.
