Shan Bao lowered its head and ate the meat without saying a word. After finishing, it didnât even glance at Hong Lian. Su Yingxue let out a nonÂthreatening cry, as if asking her, âIs there more meat?â
âOf course, here, have some more.â
Su Yingxue placed the meat in front of Shan Bao piece by piece. Shan Bao sat down and leisurely ate, including Wo pieces of ribs, which he happily gnawed on.
Su Yingxue remarked, âI noticed that night you enjoy bones. Next time, Iâll prepare some fruits and add some seasonings. Even though youâre a carnivore, you still need nutritious food.â
Shan Bao paused from eating, licking the meat of its mouth. It found the womanâs words quite reasonable!
Lately, the flesh under its belly had been a bit loose.
âHaha! Even regular dogs donât eat like this. Do you think Shan Bao would?â Hong Lian scoffed disdainfully. She knew Shan Bao could smell. It must have caught Chu Yihanâs scent on Su Yingxue, hence it ate her meat.
Su Yingxueâs victory wasnât exactly honorable.
Unexpectedly, Shan Bao lifted its head and roared at her, teeth grinding menacingly. The fury on its tiger face made Hong Lian instinctively step back.
However, Su Yingxue found it amusing. âShan Bao knows whether it likes the food or not. Pavilion Master Hong Lian, youâre not its guardian. Naturally, itâll get angry if you make decisions for it, right Shan Bao?â
Hong Lian was already unconvinced, so Shan Bao listening to Su Yingxue was beyond her belief.
But unexpectedly, Shan Bao nodded at Su Yingxue.
The anger in Hong Lianâs heart swelled, causing her chest to ache.
After Shan Bao finished eating, it yawned and waved its claws at Su Yingxue, as if saying it wanted to rest. Goodbye!
Seeing it was full and lying down, Su Yingxue feared it wouldnât digest properly. She pointed to the spot next to her and then to Shan Baoâs stomach. âCome here, Iâll massage you.â
Shan Bao was initially too lazy to move.
However, it heard Hong Lian say, âSu Yingxue, youâre full of yourself. Shan Bao will never listen to you!â
Shan Baoâs ears perked up.
It lazily walked to Su Yingxueâs side and lay down, rolling over to expose its belly to her.
Su Yingxue gently massaged Shan Baoâs body.
Shan Bao squinted its eyes in comfort.
It seemed this woman wasnât so bad after all.
Beside her, Hong Lian picked up a stone. Seeing Su Yingxue focused on massaging Shan Bao, she hurled the stone, striking Shan Baoâs stomach hard.
âRoar!â
Shan Bao suddenly leaped up, causing a gust of wind that knocked Su Yingxue to the ground. Its tiger eyes widened. âRoar!â
Su Yingxue controlled her strength well. Puzzled, she asked, âShan Bao, whatâs wrong? Where does it hurt?â
Shan Bao bared its teeth fiercely, its fur bristling as it emitted a low growl, its anger evident.
Taking a step closer to Su Yingxue, she felt a bit nervous, but she hadnât harmed Shan Bao earlier. âShan Bao, you wonât bite me, will you?â
âHaha, Su Yingxue, youâve angered Shan Bao, and you still want to escape?â Hong Lian sneered triumphantly, hoping to witness Su Yingxue torn to shreds by Shan Bao!
âRoar!â
Perhaps feeling too triumphant, Hong Lianâs reaction was slow.
Shan Bao suddenly pounced on Hong Lian, slashing her face with its claws and sinking its teeth into her.
âAll!â
The womanâs scream pierced the sky.
âOh no! Miss Su!â The stewardâs legs trembled in fear.
