There seemed to be two hammers in Foxy's heart, constantly hitting the drum skin. Just when she was feeling uneasy, Long Mo reached out and picked her up and put her on the bed.

He pulled up her paw with one hand and wiped it carefully with the warm animal skin.

The little fox's paw soon became white and clean again, revealing the pink plum blossom pad underneath. After

Long Mo wiped the paw with the wet animal skin, he took out a dry animal skin and wiped the remaining moisture on it clean before carrying her back to the middle of the bed.

"Wipe it clean, go to sleep."

Foxy was stunned. Just like that?

Didn't he ask her why she didn't change back to human form? Or did the beastman get used to it?

While Foxy Jiaojiao was suspicious, the bed beside her suddenly sank. Long Mo had already laid down and held her petite body in his arms.

She turned her head and glanced at Long Mo's closed eyes. She waited for a long time, listened to his even breathing, and was sure that he was asleep. Only then did she relax.

"Huh..."

Fortunately, Long Mo didn't ask her any more questions today.

Maybe females like to sleep in animal form in winter? Is it warm?

Thinking of this, Foxy Jiaojiao felt relieved. As soon as she relaxed, sleepiness surged up like a tide.

She yawned and fell into a deep sleep. What

Foxy Jiaojiao didn't know was that after she fell asleep, the male behind her slowly opened his eyes.

The deep pupils were like bright stars in the night sky, revealing some mystery from the depth of the sky and the dark night.

Long Mo looked at the cute and beautiful little fox in his arms, and his cold eyes softened.

"Jiaojiao, no matter what you look like, you are my Jiaojiao."

"I like you all the time."

His only wish in this life is to be able to stand by her side forever and protect her.

...

The next day.

When Fox Jiaojiao woke up in a daze, a heavy hand was hugging her waist. Knowing that Long Mo had not gotten up yet, she rubbed against his arms, trying to find a comfortable position to continue sleeping. .

Suddenly, she thought of something and suddenly opened her eyes.

Wait!

Did she seem to have turned into a little fox yesterday?

Foxy's mind instantly became clear, and she was no longer sleepy. She sat up suddenly from the bed like a corpse.

No...

Feeling the familiar control over her body, she lowered her head and stretched out her hands, revealing her palms, and then turned over the back of her hands. She couldn't help but exclaim in her heart:

"I'm back again?!"

Could it be that because she had been dreaming about turning back into a human form last night, she turned back directly while sleeping?

How come it's so easy for others to transform into a beast, but for her, it's like a weather forecast, sometimes working and sometimes not!

Foxy couldn't help but complain in her heart.

"What's wrong." A low and questioning voice sounded behind her.

Long Mo woke up when Hu Jiaojiao sat up. Seeing her frightened look, his deep eyes couldn't help but show a trace of worry.

"It's okay, I just... had a nightmare and woke up." Hu Jiaojiao heard the voice and quickly calmed down, stroking her chest with her little hands.

Coupled with her pale face from being frightened just now, it's really hard to tell what's going on.

Long Mo stared at her with deep eyes, as if he could see through her eyes, into her heart, and dig out the secrets hidden deep in her heart.

"I'm here, don't be afraid."

He stretched out his hand without hesitation and held her tightly in his arms, as if telling her that his broad shoulders would always be her strongest support.

She buried her head in his arms coquettishly, and the faint smell of male hormones lingered around her nose, making her feel at ease involuntarily, but also a little guilty for hiding it from him.

"I'm fine now, it's not that scary." She said with a guilty heart, and got out of Long Mo's arms.

Long Mo pursed his lips, looked at her meaningfully, and slowly spoke:

"Jiao Jiao, yesterday..."

Hearing the word "yesterday", Hu Jiao Jiao seemed to have been sounded an alarm bell. She was startled and tried to hide the tension on her face, and suddenly interrupted Long Mo.

"Long Mo! That... I want to tell you, actually I..."

Her courage seemed to be used in the first two words. As soon as she finished speaking, her tone became weaker and her voice stuttered.

Hu Jiao Jiao's heart seemed to be hanging on the tip of a knife.

Who knew that Long Mo was one second faster than her.

"Jiaojiao, you looked very good in your beast form yesterday. I like you no matter what you look like."

Long Mo's eyes were deep and gentle, and his mellow voice seemed to have buried hundreds of years of fine wine, making people feel relaxed and happy.

The words of Hu Jiaojiao were stuck in her throat.

Huh?

Didn't Long Mo want to ask her more?

"So, you don't have to use the beast form to please me. As long as it's you, I'm happy to see you in any form."

Hu Jiaojiao suddenly bumped into Long Mo's doting eyes.

I don't know if it was her illusion, she always felt that Long Mo seemed to emphasize those four words intentionally or unintentionally.

Did she think too much?

"Who is trying to please you?" Hu Jiaojiao muttered in her heart. Seeing that Long Mo had already "thought" of a reason for her, she did not say anything, but just lowered her head slightly and acquiesced.

"Good girl, you must not have slept well last night. Sleep a little longer. I'll make breakfast and call you."

Long Mo stroked her head with his big hand and got up to cook.

Hu Jiaojiao suddenly woke up. Thinking of the way the kids couldn't swallow yesterday and the horrible meal on the table, she called him loudly:

"Wait!"

"I'm not sleepy, I'll do it!"

Without waiting for Long Mo to refuse, she casually put on a fur coat and hurried downstairs.

She was afraid that Long Mo would occupy the kitchen first.

One of the most terrifying things in their family is that Long Mo went to cook!

Seeing Hu Jiaojiao suddenly become energetic and leave in a hurry, Long Mo raised a doting and helpless smile, shook his head lightly, and followed immediately.

That day, the news that Feng Sheng and Hu Qingshan returned victoriously came.

Feng Sheng's tribesmen were overjoyed, and several females who found new partners became pregnant one after another.

The tribe was full of joy. The winter, which has always been known for its cold and dead silence, was so lively and prosperous for the first time.

Just when everyone was happy, another good news came from the tribe.

Xieman led the orcs to completely build the wall!

Winter is very cold, and working outside is a very dangerous thing. Now that the wall has been repaired, the beastmen who have worked hard for most of their lives and have never enjoyed happiness can finally go back to the cave to rest with peace of mind.

Halfway through the winter, a blizzard came soon!

This means that they can't go out for the next half of the winter.

The beastmen have distributed supplies in advance and lived in their respective caves.

The sky seems to be stained with a layer of thick ink, dark and oppressive. The strong wind swept the earth, and the accumulated snow was rolled up to the sky and accompanied by branches.

The beastmen who were still stranded outside hurriedly ran into the cave.

Hu Jiaojiao had heard that there would be a blizzard in the second half of winter, and the beastmen would stay indoors at that time. When she saw the sky was changing outside, she thought of the cubs who were still outside, so she quickly called Long Mo to go and pick up the cubs.

Fortunately, the cubs had experience and were all rushing back. Hu Jiaojiao and Long Mo picked them up, and then went to the veterinarian's cave to pick up Long Ling'er. The beast family finally returned home before it was completely dark.
