Chapter 215: The Proud Little Wolf Cub
The ball's eyes suddenly widened, and he was stunned for several seconds before he came to his senses. He took a few steps forward and stretched out his hand to touch Liuli's ear carefully, but was afraid of disturbing her. His voice was full of surprise:
"Wow, Liuli, you're so beautiful! You're completely different from before."
Duzi stood aside, with a silly smile on his face and eyes full of admiration, nodding his head in agreement:
"That's right, this look makes her very attractive. We have to take good care of her."
Juanjuan squatted down, looked Liuli in the eye, whistled softly, and teased:
"Hey, little guy, you're much more energetic now. There are a lot of fun things waiting for you in the future."
Then Juanjuan was slapped away by Xia Yueke with one hand, "Juanjuan, who did you learn to whistle from? It's so vulgar, stop whistling!"
Juanjuan hid behind the ball of fluff awkwardly, looking unhappy.
Xia Yueke played with Liuli for a while until it was late and the sky became dark. At Luo Cihe's urging, Xia Yueke had to leave.
Walking to the corner, she looked at Qi'an and said, "Qi'an, doesn't this Beast City provide a place to live for those cubs whose fathers and mothers died unexpectedly?"
Qi An shook his head. "No, in this world, every orc has his or her own partner and gives birth to his or her own cubs. No orc has the time to care about other orcs' cubs. It's good enough if they don't bully them."
Xia Yueke was slightly disappointed. It was true that welfare homes were not easy to popularize in the animal world.
And it was impossible for her to make a fuss and ask to raise this strange little female cub. Now the most idle people seemed to be Duzai, Rongqiu and the others. Since leaving the school, these three people have been idle. Unexpectedly, they went hunting outside the Beast City this time.
Doesn’t this prove that they are destined to be with Liuli?
Xia Yueke thought that letting these three young men take care of Liuli might be a good idea.
In Liuli's current situation, she needs a few lively and interesting orcs to accompany her, to make her happy and help her dispel the haze in her heart.
"Duzi, Rongqiu, I'm thinking of leaving Liuli in your care for a while. Once we send her to the cub school, maybe her condition will improve. You all know she's not capable of living on her own right now. She's been through so much, and she needs time to heal her wounds. From now on, I'll be grateful for your continued care!"
When Duzi heard this, his eyes lit up instantly, and he was filled with excitement, nodding his head like pounding garlic:
"Great, great, that's great! The three of us are usually so bored and worried about having nothing to do. The last time we came to see you, Yao chased us out and refused to let us in, afraid to disturb your rest. Now we finally have something to do!"
The ball of fluff also agreed hurriedly, nodding:
"That's definitely no problem! We love this little girl from the bottom of our hearts and will definitely take good care of her, so don't worry!"
Juanjuan stepped forward, her expression firm and serious: "Keke, don't worry, we will definitely take good care of her."
Xia Yueke nodded, turned around and walked into the house. She came to Liuli, squatted down, gently held Liuli's little face, looked into her eyes and said seriously:
"Liuli, it's getting dark. Qi'an and I have to go back first. We'll come to see you later. Duzi, Rongqiu, and Juanjuan will take good care of you. Don't be afraid, okay?"
A hint of uneasiness flashed in Liuli's eyes. She stretched out her little claws and gently tugged at the corner of Xia Yueke's clothes, making a low whimpering sound, obviously reluctant to let go.
Xia Yueke felt extremely distressed and gently stroked Liuli's paw to comfort her:
"Be good, Liuli is the bravest. When we come tomorrow, we will bring you some delicious food."
After a long time, Liuli seemed to understand, slowly released her claws and nodded.
Before leaving, Xia Yueke worriedly warned Duzi and the others:
"Be sure to take good care of Liuli and pay attention to her emotions. If anything seems wrong with her, come to me immediately."
Duzi and the other two nodded heavily and responded in unison: "Don't worry, Keke!"
After Xia Yueke and Qi'an left, Duzi, Rongqiu and Juanjuan officially started the "baby-raising" mode.
On the first morning, Duzi walked into the kitchen humming a little tune, determined to show off his cooking skills to Liuli.
Not long after, a plate of steaming hot and fragrant barbecue was served. It was bright red in color and sizzling with oil, which made people's appetite increase just by looking at it.
Duzi, with a smile on his face, ran to Liuli, bent down slightly, handed the plate forward, and shook his head, his tone full of boasting:
"Liuli, look here! I hunted the freshest meat for you this morning and roasted it carefully for a long time. Come and try it! I guarantee you won't be able to taste it anywhere else!"
Liuli was originally lying on the ground and dozing off. When she heard the sound, her ears moved slightly, her eyes narrowed a little and she took a look, sniffing slightly with her little nose. In fact, she also felt that it was fragrant, but her eyes were full of worry and fear, and her whole body revealed a sense of vigilance.
Finally, she turned her head and turned her face away, refusing to look at the plate.
Rongqiu covered his mouth and laughed secretly, while Juanjuan raised his eyebrows, as if smiling.
Duzi was not discouraged. He picked up a piece of meat and waved it in front of Liuli, coaxing her softly, "Try it, Liuli. It's delicious."
Liuli glanced at it, turned her head away, and stretched out her little paw to gently slap Duzi's hand away.
"Ouch!"
But just as she finished her words, her stomach growled uncontrollably. Liuli's face flushed red instantly and she curled up even tighter, only glancing at the food out of the corner of her eyes.
Duzi suppressed his laughter and passed the meat closer: "Okay Liuli, just have a bite, give me some face."
Liuli hesitated for a long time before she slowly sat up. After hesitating for a while, she took a small bite with great elegance. After chewing it slowly, she kept an eye on Duzi and the others, fearing that they would suddenly attack her.
But the fact that she was eating faster and faster and her tail was shaking slightly revealed her love for it.
After dinner, Liuli relaxed a little, but it was evening.
Outside the window, the dark clouds were rolling like angry beasts. In a blink of an eye, raindrops as big as beans fell with a crackling sound. The strong wind was howling and hitting the window frames, making a "clang clang" sound. Thunder suddenly sounded, and the earth seemed to be shaking.
Liuli, who had been quietly huddled in the corner, was instantly frightened and trembled all over. Her eyes were full of fear, and she quickly crawled under the bed, her body shaking like a sieve.
A suppressed whimper came from her throat, and scenes of the stray beasts wreaking havoc in the past flashed uncontrollably in her mind, with the screams of her tribesmen and the gurgling of blood. Every scene was like a sharp blade, cutting her young and fragile heart.
