Chapter 474 Two Good Sons
Xia Yue couldn't resist their enthusiasm. Knowing that they couldn't eat any more, they gave up in disappointment.
Only the tribe leader and several elders knew about Xia Yueke's return. The other orcs didn't know what she was doing, so they were surprised to see Xia Yueke.
Mia also heard the news from the orcs and hurried over. "Keke, where have you been for so long? Every time I asked them, they wouldn't tell me, insisting you had something important to do. But how come I didn't know? Did you do something dangerous? And you left the two cubs alone for so long!"
Mia has had a good time in the past six months. Her face has become rounder, and the cubs around her have been replaced one after another, as if she has given birth to a new litter.
Xia Yueke had heard from Qian Jingyao a long time ago that Mia took good care of the two cubs during his absence, often playing with them and helping them wake up those cubs who bullied them.
Xia Yueke didn't expect that she would be away for half a year. She was indeed a little overwhelmed, especially after hearing about this from Qian Jingyao. She was very grateful to Mia.
Xia Yueke smiled and said, "It was indeed a big deal. I had to go out. Thank you for taking care of An An and Dun Dun for so long. If you have any problems in the future, just come to me and I will definitely help!"
Mia rolled her eyes at Xia Yueke and curled her lips. "That's not my intention. We are from the same tribe and have known each other for so long. If I don't help you, who will? Qian Jingyao and Qingyan are not like us. They are male beasts. There are some things they can't take care of, so I have to step in. But don't worry, my cubs get along well with An An and the others. We play together all the time. Besides, An An and the others are not the kind of people who will let others bully them. If someone treats them badly, they will definitely find a way to get it back!"
Xia Yueke nodded, holding Mia's cub, who was just over a month old, tightly and rubbing his leopard fur. "This little cub is really fun to play with. It feels good to touch."
Mia twitched her lips and said, "Okay, please don't make my little baby faint."
As he said this, he pretended to take the baby away from Xia Yueke's arms.
Xia Yueke hugged him even tighter and said with a smile: "Oh, let me hold you for a while longer, you are so cute, I really want one myself."
The little leopard cub was held by Xia Yueke. Not only was it not afraid, but it also looked at her curiously with its big round, watery eyes. It sniffed with its pink little nose and licked Xia Yueke's fingers from time to time with its little tongue.
Mia looked at Xia Yueke and smiled helplessly, "You, hug her more if you like her. This little guy is so naughty, jumping around all day long, never quiet for a moment. Last time, he even secretly dug out the fruit I hid and made it all over the floor."
Xia Yueke gently poked the little leopard cub's nose, making it whimper. "So lively! He'll definitely be a formidable little hunter in the future."
The little leopard seemed to understand the compliment. It waved its little paws excitedly and made a fierce growl from its throat, which made Xia Yueke and Mia laugh out loud.
Mia added, "By the way, An'an and Dundun were very sensible when you were away. One time, the older kids were being naughty and snatched toys from the other kids. An'an even stood up for them and scolded the little ones, leaving them stunned."
Xia Yueke's eyes were filled with satisfaction. "I didn't expect them to be so responsible. I'll have to praise them later."
As she spoke, she held the little leopard cub in her arms and rocked it gently. The little leopard cub squinted his eyes comfortably and let out a contented purr from his throat.
Mia looked at the intimacy between Xia Yueke and the little leopard cub and said with emotion:
"With your return this time, the tribe will definitely be lively again. Everyone was looking forward to seeing you, and now, we finally have you back."
Xia Yueke raised her head, her eyes soft. "Well, I won't leave this time. I want to work with everyone to build a better tribe."
Mia was relieved now and went home happily holding her baby.
Two days passed in a flash, and Xia Yueke's life gradually returned to normal. Every day, Qian Jingyao, Qi'an and the others would pick one person to accompany her, and the rest would go to fight the monsters. The monsters had long been exhausted due to the consumption of these days and were not to be feared at all. They were just waiting for an opportunity, and they would retreat to the forest again.
So Xia Yue was not worried at all. She was just looking forward to An An and the others coming back soon so that they could be reunited. It seemed that her thoughts worked. On the afternoon of the fourth day after she came back, An An and Dun Dun came back.
"Father, we're back! Look, we've brought back some fresh prey! You'll definitely love it!"
A clear young voice came from outside the door.
Xia Yueke was sitting in the house eating fruit, while Qing Yan was peeling the fruit beside her. When they heard the noise outside, they ran out. Xia Yueke was particularly excited.
"An An! Dun Dun! The mother beast is back!"
Xia Yueke pushed open the door excitedly, and saw two young men walking side by side. The one walking in front was An An, with pure white hair like snow hanging down softly to his shoulders, sparkling in the sunlight, and the ends of his hair swaying gently with his steps.
His ears stood up playfully, with the agility unique to a fox, his cheeks still had some baby fat, and his round eyes were like clear lake water, revealing intelligence.
He had a tall and straight figure, and his height reached Xia Yueke's chest. He looked like a boy of twelve or thirteen years old. He was wearing a light animal skin coat, the corners of which fluttered in the wind.
Following An An was Dun Dun, whose red hair was as dazzling as a burning flame, fluffy and shiny, with a few strands of hair hanging down in front of his smooth forehead.
His ears were also erect, twitching occasionally as he vigilantly observed his surroundings. His eyes were like two rubies, revealing a cunning look.
Dun Dun's face was filled with a bright smile, revealing his white teeth. He was in good shape and full of energy.
The two men were holding their prey in their hands.
Seeing that the two had grown so big, Xia Yuke was stunned. She had only been away for half a year, but these two people looked like little adults!
She was almost unrecognizable!
This one is so handsome, it must be her child!
Xia Yueke walked forward excitedly, her eyes filled with joy, "You're already this big..."
Xia Yueke was just about to pinch An An's cheek when he took a small step back. He did not pounce on her as he did before.
Xia Yueke was stunned and her hand stopped in mid-air.
Qingyan ran over from behind and said excitedly: "An'an, your female beast is back, why don't you call her quickly?"
An An and Dun Dun looked at Xia Yueke. After a while, they finally spoke. Their voices were a little weak, lacking the excitement they had just shown when they called out "Father Beast," "Female Beast."
