Hu Jiaojiao dreamed that Long Yao was in a wasteland, being eaten and torn by a group of wolves. Only bones were left of half of the dragon's body. The pure and bright red animal eyes looked at her with resentment.

But in the blink of an eye, the resentment in Long Yao's eyes turned into hatred. The cold and hostile aura was like a knife, piercing Hu Jiaojiao's heart.

She woke up instantly.

In the dream, the sun was hanging obliquely in the sky. It was afternoon.

For some reason, Hu Jiaojiao felt very uneasy. Although

she knew it was just a dream.

Hu Jiaojiao got up and prepared to call the cubs back. Only in this way could she feel at ease.

After searching around the wooden house, she couldn't find the cubs. Fox Jiaojiao became more and more worried and hurried to look for them in other places of the tribe.

Fox Jiaojiao lived in the westernmost part of the tribe, surrounded by forests. She had to walk for a while before she could see the houses of other beastmen.

Thinking of the scene in her dream, Fox Jiaojiao became anxious and grabbed the branches in the forest with both hands.

Suddenly, Fox Jiaojiao heard voices coming from the front of the forest.

She paused and walked closer, and saw several cubs standing in the distance.

They were the cubs!

Fox Jiaojiao's face lit up and she was about to walk over.

However, before she got close, she saw a slim female standing opposite the cubs, speaking to them in a gentle voice.

"Yu'er, this is the barbecue I just made. Take it and share it with your brothers and sisters. You must be very hungry. It's all my fault. I've been busy lately and haven't been able to send you food. I'll try to bring you more food in the future."

The voice was soft and gentle.

Hu Jiaojiao felt a little familiar. She frowned and looked over, and found that the person who spoke was Lu Mian'er, whom she saw when she just crossed over.

Why is she here?

She suddenly remembered that although Lu Mian'er, as the heroine, hated what the original body did, she was very good to the cubs. From time to time, she would carry the original body to give the cubs some food. She was one of the few beastmen in the tribe who was good to the cubs.

From a distance, through the dense branches and leaves, Hu Jiaojiao could see the smile on the face of the soft and gentle female.

The cubs standing in front of her also looked well-behaved.

This scene was unusually harmonious.

Hu Jiaojiao suddenly had the idea of ​​not daring to interrupt them...

These cubs must still hate her now. What they want most should be a mother like Lu Mian'er, right? If she went by without hesitation, the cubs would definitely hate her.

"Thank you, but no, we're not hungry." Long Yu's face was expressionless, and he refused very coldly.

Long Xiu and Long Zhong stood side by side, and Long Zhong just glanced at the barbecue in Lu Mian'er's hand without saying anything.

They all listened to their eldest brother.

Even Long Ling'er, who usually talked the most, did not talk to Lu Mian'er at this time. She stood behind Long Yu with a faint expression, and her dark eyes silently stared at Lu Mian'er with a scrutinizing look.

When they went out today, they heard other beastmen say that the injury on the head of the vicious female was caused by Lu Mian'er pushing her down.

No matter how bad the vicious female was to them, she was still their mother, and they would not allow other beastmen to hurt her.

The smile on Lu Mian'er's face was slightly stunned, revealing a puzzled expression, and then reacted.

She squatted down and asked gently, "Did Foxy beat you again? Or did she find out that I gave you food and she won't let you eat it?"

"It doesn't matter. You finish eating now. She won't find out when you go back, and I won't tell any beastmen. Just eat..."

In the past, although these cubs didn't like to talk and were cold to her, they would never refuse food.

Today is really a bit strange.

Lu Mian'er subconsciously blamed Foxy.

Hearing Lu Mian'er's words, except Long Zhong, the cubs couldn't help but frown.

"She didn't beat us, and we're not hungry. You can take the food back." Long Yu corrected with a serious face.

"Brother is right, mother didn't beat us, don't talk nonsense." Long Ling'er also nodded quickly. They

ate her food before because they would starve to death if they didn't eat it. They would repay her when they were able to. Now they don't need it and won't eat it.

Long Xiu, who was always taciturn, also spoke, "Auntie Lu, thank you for your kindness, you should go back."

Auntie Lu?

When Lu Mian'er heard this, the smile on her face froze a little.

Although she was almost the same age as Hu Jiaojiao, the cubs in the tribe all called her Sister Mian'er, and no cub had ever called her Auntie.

"Puchi..."

Hearing Long Xiu's call, Hu Jiaojiao in the distance couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh out loud.

The original second child is indeed the most venomous among the children. Long Zhong is venomous in public, while he is venomous in private.

The heroine Lu Mian'er is still a young female under 20 years old, but Long Xiu calls her aunt.

"Who is there!"

A trace of vigilance flashed across Long Yu's tender face. He turned his head suddenly and swept his sharp eyes to where Hu Jiaojiao was.

Hu Jiaojiao quickly shut up, but it was too late.

Long Zhong had already walked over on the dead branches and leaves. When he saw Hu Jiaojiao, the scars on his face wrinkled into a ball, "Why is it you..."

Was the vicious female eavesdropping on their conversation from behind?

The other cubs were also stunned, and their thin bodies subconsciously shrank back. This was a habit left to them by the original body, a reflex of physical conditioning.

The vicious appearance of the vicious female could not help but emerge in their minds.

They subconsciously thought that she found out that Lu Mian'er secretly gave them food. If she saw them accepting it, they would definitely be beaten up again when they returned. While

the cubs were distracted, Long Ling'er grinned, trotted over, and called out in a crisp voice.

"Mom!"

Hearing this mother, the cubs seemed to wake up from a nightmare. They suddenly remembered that the vicious female would call herself mother, and she also vowed not to beat them again.

Seeing that she was discovered by the cubs and could no longer hide, Hu Jiaojiao had to bite the bullet and walk out with an awkward smile. She

explained: "I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation. I wanted to find you and I happened to meet you..."

"How about you continue chatting? I won't disturb you..."

Seeing that the cubs were here intact, the stone in Hu Jiaojiao's heart fell.

Hearing Hu Jiaojiao's words, several cubs showed surprised expressions.

What is she up to?

The vicious female used to hate Lu Mian'er the most. She didn't let them talk to Lu Mian'er. She would scold them if they even got close to her. Why didn't she react today?

Seeing Hu Jiaojiao turn around and leave, Long Ling'er hurried forward and held her clothes with her little hand.

Hu Jiaojiao turned around and saw Long Ling'er, who was as thin as a little monkey, tilting her head back, with her watery eyes pleading, "Mom, don't go..."

"We didn't come to see her on purpose, she came to us on her own, and we didn't eat her food. Mom, don't be angry, and don't hate us, okay?"
