In his daze, Lin Huanhuan seemed to hear intense collisions and heart-wrenching screams.
She wanted to wake up, but she couldnât open her eyes.
Vaguely, she thought she heard someone gently call her name in her earsâ
âHuanhuan.â
Who was calling her?
Lin Huanhuan found the voice familiar. She thought about it for a long time and finally remembered that it was Bai Diâs voice.
Was she dreaming?
If so, she hoped the dream would last forever.
â¦
Mu Xiang brought the nine cubs to visit. The originally naked wolf cubs had already grown soft fur. They looked like nine round balls of fur.
They sauntered into the house after their mother. It was a very lovely sight.
Bai Di took a bag of jerky for the wolf pups to grind their teeth.
Huanhuan had marinated the meat with seasonings before drying them. It was fragrant but a little hard.
The wolf pups ate with relish.
Mu Xiang glanced in the direction of the bedroom and asked worriedly, âIs Huanhuan still unconscious?â
Bai Di nodded his head.
Mu Xiang sighed. âItâs been three days. Why isnât she awake? If only the old witch doctor were still around. He would know what to do.â
However, the old witch doctor had gone to another world.
All that was left for them was a broken corpse.
Shuang Yun had been busy dealing with the matters of the wolf tribe in the past few days. He needed to collect the remains of his clansmen and see who had sacrificed themselves this time. He also had to clean the blood in the cave and calculate how much food was left in the tribeâ¦
There were many things to do. Shuang Yun was extremely busy. He had not rested much in these three days.
By the time he got home, he looked extremely tired.
Mu Xiang had already left with her cubs.
Bai Di was feeding Huanhuan.
He fed the crushed fruits into Huanhuanâs mouth.
She couldnât eat, but he couldnât keep her hungry, so Bai Di thought of the Sourcing Leaf Fruit. It was very nourishing to the femaleâs body. It should help her a little⦠right?
Shuang Yun walked in and stared at Huanhuanâs face for a long time.
He suddenly asked, âWill she keep sleeping and never wake up?â
Bai Diâs hand trembled, but he said with absolute certainty, âSheâll wake up!â
It was unknown if these words were meant for Shuang Yun or for himself.
Shuang Yun stopped talking.
He walked over and lowered his head to kiss her forehead. Then, he nuzzled her cheek.
âHuanhuan, wake up.â
â¦
Lin Huanhuan only woke up the next morning.
She felt a terrible headache coming on.
Bai Di, who was sleeping beside her, woke up immediately.
He picked up the little female and asked nervously, âHow are you? Are you feeling unwell?â
After a while, Lin Huanhuan recovered from her headache and asked hoarsely, âWhere are we?â
âThis is our home. Donât you remember?â
Lin Huanhuan looked around, then shook her head and frowned. âI feel like Iâve forgotten many thingsâ¦â
Bai Di asked quickly, âDo you remember me, then?â
Lin Huanhuan stared at him for a long time.
Bai Di tensed.
Had she really forgotten about him?!
Lin Huanhuan suddenly chuckled. âOf course, I remember you. Youâre my mate. We have a mate contract.â
Bai Di was relieved. He squeezed Huanhuanâs palm and said helplessly, âNaughty girl.â
After learning that Huanhuan had woken up, Shuang Yun rushed back immediately.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He saw Huanhuan sitting there alive and immediately rushed forward to pick her up.
He buried his face in her neck, but his tone was still as arrogant as before.
âYouâre finally awake! If you didnât wake up, I wouldâve⦠I wouldâveâ¦â
Lin Huanhuan raised her eyebrows. âYou wouldâve what?â
âI-I wouldâve mated with you!â
Lin Huanhuan immediately blushed.
She wrapped her arms around his neck and stroked his short silver-white hair. âHooligan!â she whispered.
Bai Di joined in and lowered his head to kiss Huanhuanâs cheek. âI made broth. Come and drink it while itâs hot.â
Over the past few days, Bai Di and Shuang Yun had been worried about Huanhuanâs safety. They barely ate a proper meal. When they were hungry, they would eat some jerky. When they were thirsty, they would stuff a ball of snow into their mouths.
Now that Huanhuan had woken up, the two of them could finally relax. They also had the appetite to eat.
Bai Diâs cooking was getting better. The soup was delicious.
The three of them quickly finished the entire pot of soup.
Lin Huanhuan touched her bulging stomach and sighed in satisfaction. âFortunately, they didnât snatch this pot from us. Otherwise, we wouldnât have such delicious meat soup!â
The pot had been sitting in the corner of the kitchen. When Bai Di and Shuang Yun returned, they saw that it was overturned and covered in dust.
Bai Di said, âThey donât know what it is or how to use it. Thatâs why they didnât take it.â
If they knew how useful it was, those greedy people from the Black River Wolf Tribe would definitely have snatched it away!
Shuang Yun suddenly said, âWe have to go down the mountain tomorrow.â
âHuh?â Lin Huanhuan was very surprised. âWhy?â
âThereâs not enough food in the tribe.â
After the massacre at the rock mountain, all the food and animal hides in the cave had been looted. Now, there was only food in the cellar of Huanhuanâs house, but the food here was not enough to support more than 200 beasts.
Winter was not over yet. They had to find a way to find enough food to survive the winter. Otherwise, they would have to starve.
Bai Di glanced at Shuang Yun and asked, âAre you planning to go down the mountain to hunt? The snow has sealed the mountain, and the animals in the forest have hidden and gone into hibernation. Itâs difficult for you to catch prey. Even if you catch a few, it wonât be enough for so many of you.â
âI know. Thatâs why Iâm not going hunting. Iâm going to rob.â
Lin Huanhuan couldnât help but ask, âWho are you planning to rob?â
âWeâll rob whoever stole from us.â
âYou plan to rob the Black River Wolf Tribe? But there are many of them. You might not be a match for them. Itâs too dangerous.â
Shuang Yunâs eyes were ferocious. âNo matter how dangerous it is, I have to get the food back! Not only that, I have to take revenge on them! They killed so many of our Rock Wolf Tribe members. I definitely canât let them off!â
Lin Huanhuan recalled Lang Zhuâs last words.
Indeed, they had to take revenge!
They could not let their dead clansmen die in vain!
Lin Huanhuan took the wolf fang necklace off her neck and handed it to Shuang Yun. âThe old witch doctor asked me to pass this to you.â
