Chapter 46

Xie Juanhan glanced at the little ones while eating.

The little ones were licking their plates with smacking sounds, without even looking up.

After finishing the fish, Xie Juanhan picked up a piece of Spicy Clam.

Telingewei is enjoying Spicy Clam.

He chewed with his mouth closed, his expression somewhat strange.

Xie Juanhan: "What's wrong?"

When asked the question, he did not wait for Telingewei's answer, but instead began to taste it.

The moment he tasted it, he knew why Telingewei's expression was so strange.

So spicy!

It's both fresh and spicy!

The glistening broth, the rich aroma of a wok, and the plump scallop meat coated in spices—

All the flavors collided in my mouth, like a battlefield unfolding inside.

It's so spicy and delicious!

Xie Juanhan picked up the wine glass next to him and took a big gulp of white wine.

The chilled white wine instantly overwhelmed all the other flavors.

It was like a bugle call, signaling the end of the battle in the mouth.

Xie Juanhan sighed.

He just wanted to eat food that felt so authentic and down-to-earth.

After finishing his drink, Xie Juanhan snapped his fingers in front of Telingewei's eyes, "How was it?"

Telingewei: "That's exciting."

After saying that, he seemed to feel that the word was insufficient to describe his feelings, and added, "A very peculiar and interesting experience."

"Right?" Xie Juanhan was about to let him try it again, paired with white wine, when he suddenly heard a hissing sound.

"Oh no!" Xie Juanhan jumped up from his chair and went to check on the little ones.

When he was distributing food to the little ones, he deliberately gave each of them only one Spicy Clam.

I was thinking of letting the little ones try it.

The little ones have finished eating the fish and are now eating their Spicy Clam.

They must have never eaten such spicy food before; they were chewing on the Spicy Clam in their mouths.

Because it was so spicy, they kept moving the Spicy Clam around, constantly changing their positions.

Xie Juanhan walked over quickly. "It's too spicy, don't eat it."

"Chirp, hiss, hiss..."

The little ones couldn't answer him; they could only hiss as they inhaled.

The little Demon Wolf was so spicy that snot started running down its face.

Xie Juanhan hurriedly went to the kitchen to prepare iced milk for them. "Here, suck on it, don't eat it if it's too spicy."

The little guys have already swallowed all the Spicy Clam; they didn't leave a single one behind.

Xie Juanhan poured them some iced milk, which they licked with their tongues.

He didn't have time to speak.

Telingewei walked over. "It's alright, they can eat lava without any problem, it's just the Spicy Clam."

Xie Juanhan glanced to the side and saw the little Demon Wolf with a runny nose from the spiciness, licking the iced milk while trying to pry its tongue away with its paws.

Following Xie Juanhan's gaze, Telingewei looked at the little Demon Wolf beside him and said calmly, "It's fine too; it's a powerful Demonic Beast after all."

Xie Juanhan picked up each of the little creatures with some concern, gave them a little Dragon Power, and after confirming that there were no major problems, he tapped the little Demon Wolf's nose. "There's no rule that you have to finish your food. If you can't finish it, why don't you leave it?"

He thought it would only be slightly spicy, after all, Peryton was eating Spicy Clam like sunflower seeds, he didn't expect the Spicy Clam to be so spicy.

The little Demon Wolf stared innocently at Xie Juanhan with its round eyes, then stuck out its tongue as if to lick its nose.

Xie Juanhan immediately reached out and pinched its pink tongue. "Don't lick it, or your nose will feel hot too."

The little Demon Wolf whined, "Waaah."

After finishing his meal, Xie Juanhan made a point of observing the little ones.

The little ones seemed perfectly normal.

He felt a little relieved.

After finishing his meal, he said goodbye to Telingewei, took his clothes, and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

When he came out after washing up, he saw the kitchen door wide open.

He went into the kitchen and found that the cabinet doors were also open.

All the leftover food in the cupboard was eaten; even the plates were licked clean.

Xie Juanhan knew who it was as soon as he saw it. "Harper! Moli!"

"Pat-pat--"

The sound of running footsteps suddenly came from behind the kitchen.

Xie Juanhan peeked out.

The Companion Beast and the little Demon Wolf were darting away on their short legs, running away as fast as they could.

The little Demon Wolf ran at the back, licking its lips as it ran. Its nose was running from the spiciness, but it kept its tail between its legs and didn't dare to make a sound.

He's clearly one of the main culprits who licked the plate clean.

See you tomorrow!

Chapter 46 [VIP]

Inside the cave, Telingewei, transformed into a dragon, rested on his bed of gold coins.

"Da da--"

The sound of hurried footsteps came from outside the cave.

Immediately afterwards.

"Call out--"

A hairy head peeked out from outside the stone wall and looked into the cave.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh--" The remaining seven heads all poked in, peeking furtively at the giant dragon on the gold coin bed.

The dragon had its eyes closed, appearing to be asleep.

The Companion Beast secretly breathed a sigh of relief, immediately puffed out their chests and tucked in their bellies, tiptoed, and quietly made their way into the cave.

"What mischief have you gotten yourself into now?" The dragon's deep voice echoed inside the cave.

The Companion Beast froze.

"Will you confess yourselves, or do you want me to investigate?"

The Companion Beast chirped softly.

The dragon opened its eyes. "Come here."

The Companion Beast struggled for a moment before reluctantly moving forward.

Telingewei transformed back into human form, grabbed the nearest small creature, pressed it against its forehead, and read its memories.

"You stole some?" Telingewei frowned slightly.

Habu, held in his hand, could sense his bad mood and obediently lowered its paws, chirping.

Telingewei shook the little guy in his hand. "Great job."

Habu raised one eye to peek at him, and finally scratched at his fingers with its paw. "Chirp chirp."

The other Companion Beast rarely approached either, but they nestled close to his legs, chirping.

Telingewei sat down and gave her Companion Beast a rather rough pat. "Would you like to stay in the cabin?"

The Companion Beast tilted their heads back, looking somewhat bewildered. "Chirp?"

"Like a small house for humans," Telingewei added, "Like Xie Juanhan's small house."

The little ones didn't seem to understand what he was saying.

Telingewei rubbed his head and muttered, "What do I need to discuss with you?"

Xie Juanhan had no idea that his words, "Finding the taste of home in a cave is indeed a bit difficult," had kept Telingewei awake for a long time.

At this moment, he brought the little Demon Wolf home, placed it in the hallway, and observed Demon Wolf condition.

The little Demon Wolf made a mistake and didn't dare to resist at all. It obediently lay on the blanket that Xie Juanhan had laid out for it, with its two front paws on the sides and its two eyes raised to look at Xie Juanhan, revealing a little bit of the whites of its eyes.

Xie Juanhan gently rubbed its thin, soft ears. "You can stay here tonight. Call me if you feel unwell."

Little Demon Wolf: "Eek."

Xie Juanhan: "Go to sleep."

He put the little Demon Wolf to sleep, but he himself didn't get much sleep.

He listened to the sounds outside all night.

Whenever the little Demon Wolf whimpered, he would get up to check on Demon Wolf.

The little Demon Wolf did indeed have an upset stomach.

At first, its diarrhea went relatively smoothly.

Later, it felt unwell, had diarrhea but couldn't poop, so it could only hold the blanket and whine loudly.

Xie Juanhan was both annoyed and amused. He tapped its nose with his finger and asked, "Will you dare to do it again next time?"

The little Demon Wolf wiggled its bottom and whimpered through its nose, "Eek."

Xie Juanhan specially boiled some warm water and released a little Dragon Power for the little Demon Wolf to drink.

The little Demon Wolf is fine; it just ate some spicy food and its stomach isn't used to it. Drinking some warm water with Dragon Power helped a lot.

After it was sure Xie Juanhan wouldn't scold it, if it felt unwell again in the middle of the night, it would come over and scratch at Xie Juanhan's door with its paws, making a "clattering" sound.

Xie Juanhan would get up immediately whenever he heard a sound and come out to keep the little Demon Wolf.

Even after it was repeated several times, he didn't get angry.

As dawn approached, Xie Juanhan was incredibly sleepy. He was hugging his blanket, wearing a nightcap, and almost fell asleep.

The "click-clack" sound came from the doorway again.

"Are you still feeling unwell?" He got up to find his slippers, preparing to open the door to check on the little Demon Wolf.

Xie Juanhan felt something was off.

Having had diarrhea so many times, the little Demon Wolf should have already emptied its bowels and shouldn't be feeling uncomfortable.

He nervously opened the door.

Sure enough, the little Demon Wolf was right outside the door.

It seemed quite energetic, stretching out one of its thick front paws as if about to scratch at the door, its eyes particularly bright.

It was just before dawn, and the little Demon Wolf's eyes shone as if they were glowing.

"Awoo!" The little Demon Wolf let out a short howl, its voice full of pride.

Seeing Xie Juanhan come out, it scratched Xie Juanhan's calf with the paw that had been scratching at the door. "Aww!"

He doesn't look like he's in pain.

Xie Juanhan smiled, "Why are you so energetic so early in the morning? Is your stomach better?"

"Awooo!" The little Demon Wolf lowered its paws, sat upright on the ground, and gestured for Xie Juanhan to look at it.

Xie Juanhan looked at it, puzzled.

The little Demon Wolf sat there, straining all its muscles, and then its soft ears twitched.

Xie Juanhan immediately focused his attention on its ears.

It gripped the ground with its claws, straining.

With its efforts, the soft ears twitched slightly, and finally popped up silently with a "snap".

It pricked up its ears right in front of Xie Juanhan!

"Wow!" Xie Juanhan looked at the little Demon Wolf, his voice full of surprise, "You can hear now?"
