Extra 2: Jiujiu, Ban Ming's Marriage Proposal Ambassador
Jian Mo's eyes crinkled again. "Yes."
Chapter 202 Extra Chapter 2: Jiujiu, the Marriage Proposal Ambassador for Ban Ming
The Riverside Tribe has recently adopted three Flying-Winged Beasts, all of which were recently weaned.
The Flying-Winged Beast is not very big, about the size of a large Alaskan Malamute.
They have round, bright eyes, plump bodies, and long, soft, fine downy fur, making them incredibly cute.
What's most remarkable is that Ying'ao has been training them consistently. These three Flying-Winged Beasts have undergone excellent socialization training, are very docile, and have little aggression. Even the people of the Riverside Tribe can handle and pet them.
That day, the three little chicks flew to Jian Mo early in the morning. They waited for Ying'ao to return so that he could fly with them.
Ying'ao went outside the tribe to find food, and Jiujiu went to the open space to play with the tribe's cubs.
The three little chicks sat outside Ying'ao's nest, like three fluffy dolls, obediently waiting for Ying'ao to return.
Jian Mo prepared breakfast and took it to the area in front of Jiujiu and Ying'ao's nest, intending to feed them.
Upon approaching, Jian Mo first saw three little chicks.
The three little chirps opened their eyes at the same time, saw that it was the familiar Jian Mo, and chirped in unison, their movements perfectly synchronized, as if they had undergone special training.
These little guys are so cute, Jian Mo couldn't resist going over and patting their heads.
Little Chick, whose head was being patted by Jian Mo, rubbed its head against his hand.
Jian Mo felt its soft fur and the plumpness beneath it, so she reached out and scratched the little guy's chin with her finger. "How can you be so cute?"
The little guy stared at Jian Mo with his round, innocent eyes.
Jian Mo felt that what she was holding wasn't Flying-Winged Beast, but a dog, a soft little puppy, so she reached out and picked up the little guy, holding him in her arms and rubbing him.
The other two little ones came over and nuzzled against him, indicating they wanted a hug too. "Jiujiu!"
Jian Mo gently patted the other two little ones, put out their food, and started playing with them.
The little ones weren't shy at all, and they all nudged Jian Mo with their soft paws.
While playing, Jian Mo casually picked up one of the little creatures, bent down, and gave it a quick kiss on the forehead.
Before Jian Mo could even raise her head, she suddenly heard a "crack" sound.
He looked in the direction of the sound and saw that Jiujiu had returned at some point, standing on its hind legs, wings outstretched, eyes wide open, staring incredulously at Jian Mo kissing the little guy.
Meeting Jian Mo's gaze, Jiujiu cried out again, "Heh?!"
Jiujiu seemed to be asking, "How could Jian Mo kiss another Flying-Winged Beast?"
Then, without Jian Mo to explain, Jiujiu turned around and faced him with her backside.
Oh no, Jiujiu saw me sucking other Flying-Winged Beast' breath.
Jian Mo a chill in her heart, but forced a calm expression as she greeted Jiujiu, attempting to argue, "Jiujiu's back? We were just playing around..."
Jiujiu completely ignored Jian Mo.
When Jian Mo tried to coax her, Jiujiu turned her back to Jian Mo.
After Jian Mo coaxed it a few more times, Jiujiu flapped its wings and flew away, leaving Jian Mo with only its back view.
Jian Mo looked at the three Flying-Winged Beasts with clear eyes, feeling like crying but having no more desire to play. She poured the food for Jiujiu and Ying'ao into their food bowls, covered them, told the three Flying-Winged Beasts to wait there, and then left.
On the other side, Jiujiu flew among the little ones, her cheeks puffed out, still looking sulky.
Banjiu touched Jiujiu's belly with her little hands and said reassuringly, "Jiujiu, what's wrong?"
Jiujiu: "Jeh!"
Jiang Xing leaned closer and carefully observed Jiujiu: "Jiujiu is angry, but it doesn't have any wounds. I wonder who made it angry?"
He Feng: "It flew out of the house; Ying'ao probably provoked it."
Bai Lu said softly, "Ying'ao left the tribe early this morning and hasn't returned yet. It couldn't be Ying'ao."
Banjiu: "Who's that? Jiujiu, don't be angry, we'll find you something delicious to eat."
Bai Lu: "It might be Jian Mo. Jiujiu doesn't usually get angry with people, she only values Jian Mo."
Since the matter involved Jian Mo, the little ones couldn't confront anyone, so they could only comfort Jiujiu and then drag Jiujiu out to play.
When Wu Jiong returned, he also noticed something was wrong and asked in surprise, "How did you offend Jiujiu?"
Jian Mo: "It kissed another Flying-Winged Beast in front of Jiujiu, and then it acted like this. I prepared food for it, but it won't eat it, and it won't move when I call it to go out and play."
Wu Jiong chuckled, "What happened this morning? Wait until it gets back and then try to soothe it; maybe it'll calm down by then."
Jian Mo muttered, "I doubt it. Jiujiu isn't someone who compromises easily."
Wu Jiong: "Then we're not going to coax him?"
Jian Mo sighed, "I guess I'll have to coax her. I have no choice."
Because she had upset Jiujiu, Jian Mo deliberately stayed home in the afternoon and instead prepared a bunch of delicious food, planning to coax Jiujiu back home.
Finally, evening arrived, and both Jiujiu and Ying'ao returned. Jian Mo carried the newly made small cakes, intending to apologize to Jiujiu.
Jiujiu was leisurely lying in its nest when it saw Jian Mo coming over. It turned its big head away and didn't even look at Jian Mo.
Jian Mo carried the cake over. "Jiujiu, are you still angry? I'm sorry, I won't play like that with other chirps again next time."
Jiujiu turned its back to Jian Mo, its round ears drooping down, resembling airplane ears, clearly indicating its refusal to communicate.
Jian Mo tried to coax her several times, but Jiujiu remained unmoved.
Jian Mo had been coaxing him until his saliva was almost dry, and finally, he had no choice but to ask Ying'ao, who was standing next to him, "Ying'ao, can you put in a good word for me?"
Ying'ao looked at Jian Mo, then at Jiujiu, and tentatively called out, "Qiu?"
At that one sound, Jiujiu was enraged, as if it had sensed betrayal, and immediately bared its teeth at Ying'ao: "Hehehe!"
Ying'ao was startled, its paws tucked into its chest, and its round ears tilted back, revealing its airplane-like ears. "Chirp?"
