“Little Chu!”
Just as she walked out of the door, Mo Chu saw a few familiar figures not far away — Mo Yang, Qin Yue, Almighty Song…
All of them were striding toward her. This was especially so for Mo Yang. The moment he saw her, his eyes seemed to have been set ablaze. It was so bright that it was astonishing. The speed of his feet also suddenly increased. That appearance was almost no different from sprinting.
“Brother!” She sobbed as he called out. Mo Chu also ran forward quickly and threw herself into his brother’s embrace. The corners of her eyes immediately became moist.
“How is it? Are you alright?” Although he saw that Little Chu was completely intact, Mo Yang could not help but ask. His eyes swept over her entire body, afraid that something was wrong with her.
Mo Chu shook her head with all her might. Her voice was slightly nasal. “I’m fine.”
“That’s good.” Mo Yang nodded. The arm that was hugging his sister tightened. He said repeatedly, “That’s good.”
“Hey! Little Chu! Did you forget about us?” Qin Yue and Song Qingsong walked up from behind. Their words were a little teasing, but their eyes were filled with joy. This little girl had finally returned!
“Qin Yue, Almighty Song.” Mo Chu pulled her head back from Mo Yang’s embrace. She rubbed her slightly red eyes and called out to them with a smile.
“Hey!” Qin Yue immediately agreed straightforwardly. Song Qingsong also nodded at Mo Chu with a faint smile.
“Awooo –” Roundy, who was unwilling to be lonely, immediately jumped a few times on the spot. It was determined to let Little Chu see its extraordinary figure!
Naturally, Mo Chu’s gaze also shifted from Mo Yang and the others to the fat ball beside her.
“Roundy.” Mo Chu called out with a light smile. She half-squatted down and stretched out her hands towards the little fellow.
Although they had not met for more than a year, Roundy was quite familiar with this. When it saw Mo Chu’s action, its eyes lit up. Its short legs lightly hopped on the ground and it directly jumped into Mo Chu’s embrace. It even adjusted her position to make herself more comfortable.
“Little Chu, before you…”Mo Yang had just opened his mouth to ask about Little Chu’s previous situation when he was interrupted by Roundy!
Not only did this little fellow occupy Little Chu’s warm embrace, but it also deliberately raised its big head to block Mo Chu’s line of sight. Its pair of watery red eyes stared at her like that. From time to time, it would let out a soft cry!
“Alright, be good. Stop fooling around.” Seeing the pitiful look on Roundy’s little wife’s face, Mo Chu could not help but stretch out her hand to rub the soft fur on Roundy’s back. She then turned her head to look at Mo Yang. “Brother, don’t worry. Previously, Ning Yiyuan and I…”
Before he could finish speaking, Roundy, who was fighting for the favor, appeared again. It raised its sharp teeth, snorted a few times, and even deliberately puffed up its cheeks. That tsundere little appearance was just like before. Hmph! You haven’t seen this Young Master for so long, you should be missing me a lot, right? How can you keep talking to this fellow Mo Yang!?
Mo Chu cast a glance at Mo Yang and received a smile of understanding from him. Only then did she stretch out her hand and forcefully poked Roundy’s puffed up cheeks!
Roundy probably did not expect Mo Chu to do this.
“Pffft-” Its bulging face immediately deflated. The little fellow was still staring at Mo Chu in a daze. This appearance caused her to chuckle softly.
In the end, this smile was really something!
Roundy immediately raised its eyebrows. Its face was wrinkled as if something was wrong. It stared at Mo Chu with an accusatory gaze. The meaning in its eyes was clear: You have already abandoned me for more than a year, yet you still dare to bully me now?!
The little guy was angry and annoyed. It looked at Mo Chu’s slender fingers and bit them! Hmph! You dare to bully me!
“Hey! Be careful!” When the few soldiers who were picking up people saw this scene, their faces changed in fear.
There was a Blood Luminescent Beast by Mo Chu’s side! Everyone had an impression of this. After all, in this day and age, only Mo Chu alone could get a magical beast as a pet.
When they first picked her up, a few soldiers were quite curious about this Blood Luminescent Beast. After all, no one had expected that this miniature Blood Luminescent Beast would be so cute! That plump, white, and tender lump! Even if they were iron-blooded soldiers, their hearts could not help but soften when they saw this little fellow.
Just like that, there was a fellow who smiled wretchedly as he moved closer. Originally, he wanted to experience this strange Blood Luminescent Beast up close. However, in the end, his hand had yet to touch the Blood Luminescent Beast’s head, and he was met with the Blood Luminescent Beast’s vicious and cruel gaze, giving this person a huge fright. If it was not for Mo Yang’s timely shout, his hand would probably have been bitten off!
This scene also frightened everyone until they were drenched in a cold sweat. At this point, everyone was several meters away from this Blood Luminescent Beast, not daring to provoke it anymore.
To put it bluntly, if this Blood Luminescent Beast were to display its might, they reckoned that their entire group of people would not even be enough to fill the gaps between its teeth!
It was because of this that when they saw the Blood Luminescent Beast docile in Mo Chu’s embrace just now, their hearts were filled with shock and admiration. It was indeed worthy of being the famous Lucky Star, to be able to tame such a savage magical beast!
However, as the saying goes, words can not be too full of themselves.
Just like that, the shock in their hearts had yet to fade away when they saw the Blood Luminescent Beast that had a gentle expression suddenly burst forth and fiercely bit Mo Chu’s finger! Aiyo! They could not even bear to look at Mo Chu’s little bloody hand!
“It’s alright.” She shook her head at them. Contrary to what they had expected, Mo Chu, who had been bitten by the Blood Luminescent Beast, had a gentle expression on her face at this moment. There was even a hint of a doting smile on her face. Not only did she not retract her bitten finger, she even extended her other hand and gently scratched the Blood Luminescent Beast’s chin.
“Ao ao –” The little fellow was tickled by Mo Chu. Its originally bristling state gradually returned to normal. Its red eyes were even slightly narrowed. It looked like he was quite enjoying it. Hmph! Little Fellow!
“You’ve really lost weight!” Even its double chin had disappeared. Mo Chu shook her head regretfully.
“Ao ao –” Upon hearing these words, Roundy immediately felt wronged. It let out a few mournful wails.
The few sharp-eyed soldiers at the side focused their eyes and took a look. Only then did they realize that there was no mark on Mo Chu’s fair and tender fingertips, let alone any broken skin and bleeding.
Tsk tsk! This little fellow really had a sharp tongue but a soft heart towards Mo Chu. It was purely an act. Look, there was not even a drop of saliva on that finger. When they recalled the cold and indifferent attitude of the Blood Luminescent Beast towards them just now. The few soldiers suddenly felt their hearts ache. Could it be that they were being despised? This difference in treatment could not be any more obvious!
The little fellow looked pitifully at Mo Chu. Its big face even waved in front of Mo Chu a few times as if it was a matter of fact. Did you see that? My face had shrunk. It no longer had the mighty and domineering bearing of the past! At the thought of this, the little fellow rubbed against Mo Chu’s chest in a slightly dispirited manner. It begged for comfort and a hug!
“Things are pretty good now. Previously, didn’t you think that this little fellow was too fat? Now, he looks just right.” With a light cough, Ning Yiyuan strode over from the side with a faint smile on his face. However, there was a barrier in front of his arm. He squeezed out Roundy, who was deeply buried in Mo Chu’s embrace.
He had never enjoyed Little Chu’s intimate snuggle before! How could he let Roundy off?
Mo Chu did not notice Ning Yiyuan’s actions. When she heard this, she even scrutinized the little fellow in his embrace.
Heh! You’re right!
Previously, Roundy was quite fat. Its entire beast body appeared very fleshy. It was chubby and cute, but not domineering enough. But now, with its neither fat nor skinny figure, coupled with its bright red eyes, it was completely different from the chubby Roundy from before!
“Ao ao –” Hearing this, the tsundere Roundy at the side was immediately unhappy!
Chubby? Stupid Human, you really don’t have standards, hmph!
That resentful little eye even glanced at Ning Yiyuan with a swish, silently expressing its disdain. If it was not enjoying Mo Chu’s embrace, it would probably pounce on Ning Yiyuan and ruthlessly scratch him! I’ll let you know how powerful this young Master is!
However, when it turned around and looked at Mo Chu, Roundy could not help but start acting miserable again.
“Aooo –” Little Chu, do you see how pitiful I am? I’ve already become a skinny little lump. Do you really have the heart to not let me eat meat?
To be honest, Roundy’s sorrowful wail really came from the bottom of its heart.
Ever since Little Chu left, its days had become miserable.
Not only had there been fewer delicacies, but more importantly, it had gotten used to Mo Chu’s feeding. The human flesh that could barely fit into her mouth in the past had now become like garbage, unable to be swallowed at all.
If it was not for the sake of survival, this picky eater might really be able to rely on Mo Yang’s weekly spirit food to survive.
It had to be said that Roundy’s pitiful selling skills were really self-taught, and it had even mastered it!
Even the few soldiers beside him could not bear to hear it wailing, let alone Little Chu. She gently stroked its soft and tender belly and made a promise. “Alright, I’ll cook something delicious for you later.”
That was exactly what it wanted!
As soon as it heard Mo Chu’s promise, Roundy was immediately revived with full health!
Its previously watery eyes suddenly became bright. Its small chest suddenly straightened, and its short furry tail swayed in the air. The soldier who was almost bitten by Roundy felt his hands itch! Sigh, it seemed like he should go up and touch it!
However… in view of the Blood Luminescent Beast’s ruthlessness just now, he really did not dare! Hence, he could only bite his handkerchief helplessly and watch them leave!
In the command room, Mo Chu avoided the main topic. She recalled her and Ning Yiyuan’s experiences in the apocalypse. She heard the group of people beside her exclaim from time to time.
Unknowingly, she spoke for almost an hour.
Roundy was impatient. It kept tossing and turning in Mo Chu’s arms.
The few soldiers around her stared at her with sparkling eyes. Their expressions were full of surprise! This Blood Luminescent Beast could actually play like this?
Naturally, Roundy could feel the incomparably fiery gaze. However, how could this arrogant little fellow pay attention to them? It snorted with its small nose and abruptly turned around, directly pointing its plump buttocks at them.
“Oh right, there’s a Magical Region nearby that belongs to our Federation’s territory. Why don’t you guys go take a look inside?” Having said that, Ning Yiyuan took the initiative to speak with a smile, “Do you still need me to arrange for people to follow you?”
What was there to take a look inside the Magical Region?
He wanted to take this opportunity to cook a good meal for Roundy and Mo Yang!
Hearing this, Qin Yue immediately put on a smile. “I’m in! I haven’t been to the Magical Region for a long time. Let’s go together!”
How could he be left behind when there was good food?
Although Song Qingsong did not say anything, he automatically walked a few steps toward them.
“No problem.” Mo Chu smiled at Qin Yue and Ning Yiyuan and immediately agreed. She then turned to look at Ning Yiyuan. “You don’t have to send anyone to follow us.”
The number of people on the federation’s side for this military exercise was already small. How could they send anyone else to protect them?
“That’s right, don’t worry!” Qin Yue waved his hand and patted his chest. “With the few of us here, what are you worried about?”
“Alright.” Ning Yiyuan did not care much. He reached out to touch Mo Chu’s fair and tender face and said gently, “Then I’ll get someone to bring you there.”
“Okay.” Mo Chu raised her head and stared at Ning Yiyuan, looking obedient.
“Tsk, tsk.” Looking at the two of them, Qin Yue could not help but shake his body and said with a slightly sour tone, “Do you dare to be a little more intimate? There are still so many people here!”
Ning Yiyuan glanced at him and said calmly, “You’re probably… only be intimate with your right hand!”
He killed Qin Yue with one sentence!
Cough! Cough!
Most of the people in the room were men, so the meaning of his words could not be clearer. All of them could not help but laugh. Even Mo Chu could not hide the smile on his face.
On the other hand, Qin Yue’s face turned red. In just a few seconds, it turned white, and then black. It was almost comparable to a color palette, and it was automatic!
“What are you laughing at? Who among you dares to say that you’re not single?”
What was the point of him losing face alone? He had to drag everyone down with him! Qin Yue glared at Ning Yiyuan. Brat! You’re so ruthless!
Indeed, 90% of the people present were single. How could they have the courage to mock Qin Yue?
However, after Qin Yue exposed their secrets so openly, everyone blushed a little. They stared at Qin Yue with a hint of annoyance in their eyes. He would probably be targeted in the following days!
Of course, Qin Yue was not clear about this at the moment. He was still being quite prideful. He raised his chin slightly and said, “Alright, Little Chu, let’s hurry up and leave. Let’s go to the Magical Region and take a stroll!”
Thus, the other soldiers stared longingly at the receding figures. They smacked their mouths… They had heard that the spiritual food made by Mo Chu was truly delicious!
There was clearly such a good opportunity to freeload food in front of them, but in the end, their hopes were extinguished with a single sentence from their Boss. Thus, each and every one of them looked at Ning Yiyuan with a hint of resentment…
