Doted By The Regent King-Chapter 1437 - 1375: Gratefulness

Xiao Qi was injured, and Wufu lost the interest in hunting. He took him back to the estate and asked Jadeite to check his pulse and apply medicine again, ensuring there were no major issues before he could breathe a sigh of relief.

"Why did you rush into the battle zone between the wolf and the tiger?" Wufu asked him. "It’s very dangerous, you know? You’re only ten years old, and that White Tiger is so big. If it bites you, how would you endure it?"

Xiao Qi lowered his head and said, "The mother wolf was very weak, I wanted to save her."

Wufu was stunned, remembering that he grew up among wolves, perhaps he couldn’t bear to see his ’own kind’ being bullied, so he sighed and said, "You can’t be too rash, take care of yourself first, alright?"

Xiao Qi nodded.

"Miss, the goat milk is here." Mo Lan came carrying a bowl of goat milk.

Wufu said, "Leave it there. Keep the goat and bring it back to Changan City. This little wolf cub still needs it for filling its tummy."

The mother wolf had died, and the newborn wolf cub couldn’t forage for food yet. To survive, it could only eat things like goat milk.

"Alright."

"How do we feed it?" Wufu looked at the wolf cub in Xiao Qi’s arms, feeling at a loss.

Over two lifetimes, she had never raised a pet. She didn’t know how to care for these little creatures.

"How about I get a silver spoon to feed it?" Mo Lan suggested.

"Hurry and get one."

Xiao Qi gently took Ah Bu in his hands, placed him on the table, and pushed him toward the edge of the bowl, gently guiding him to lick.

Wufu watched curiously as Ah Bu seemed a bit uneasy. Xiao Qi guided him several times, even leaning down to the bowl and licking a bit of goat milk himself, showing great patience.

It’s animal instinct; perhaps due to hunger, after being directed a few times, Ah Bu finally learned to extend his tongue to lick the goat milk in the bowl.

"It would be convenient if there were a feeding bottle." Wufu said, with her chin resting on her hand.

Ah Jiu walked in, just in time to hear this, and asked, "What’s a feeding bottle?"

"It’s a bottle, convenient for feeding." Wufu replied.

Ah Jiu sat down, watching the cub happily lick the goat milk and said, "Once it knows how to eat the first time, it’ll know how to eat the second time."

"True."

Seeing the little wolf cub eating so happily, a smile appeared on Xiao Qi’s face, and Wufu rubbed his head, then went out with Ah Jiu.

"The child is inherently cold and sensitive, but in his heart, there is still some softness, after all, he’s just a kid." Wufu remarked.

Ah Jiu said, "He knows gratitude, and that is good."

Having grown up in a wolf pack, seeing the mother wolf being bullied by the White Tiger, he joined the battle without hesitation. It’s also about remembering the feelings of having lived with a wolf pack.

"He’s a good kid!" Wufu glanced at him, "So don’t be too harsh on him, or I’ll beat you up!"

Ah Jiu mumbled, "You’re so protective of him, I’m getting jealous."

"You’re something, getting jealous of a kid!" Wufu looked at him with a laugh.

"Even if it’s a baby who knows nothing, as long as it occupies your thoughts, I’ll be jealous." Ah Jiu moved closer to her, his deep and magnetic voice slipping into her ears, making her feel tingly and ambiguous.

Without waiting for Wufu to reply, he took her hand and said, "Let’s go, see the White Tiger they brought back. They’ve skinned the White Tiger neatly; once processed, I’ll make you a White Tiger Cloak, warm enough."

"Isn’t it a waste for me?"

"Nothing is wasted on you, let’s go, and take a look together."

"Then shall we remove the tiger’s teeth to make you an Amulet?"
