Chapter 72

After wolf cub Baby Shang ate four fish in one breath on the lake surface, he did feel more energized as Black Tail Uncle said.

He caught a crucian carp, quite big for him, the biggest fish he had caught so far at over four jin.

He didn't eat it, and carried it back as lunch for his mom instead.

The white crucian carp tail flipped as it struggled, sending ripples into the wolf cub's eyes again and again, blocking his vision. After several times, he let out an angry yelp, and sank his little sharp teeth deep into the crucian carp's flesh. The crucian carp settled down.

Shang Xi saw her son swimming over from afar with a white object in his mouth. As he got closer, she saw it was a fish.

She exclaimed happily, “Baby caught a big fish! So awesome!”

Upon hearing this, Baby Shang swam even faster towards his mom, working hard.

When he reached the shore, he ran up to his mom with the fish clenched in his teeth. His two front paws stood on the fish’s back, not letting it struggle and flip around. Then he looked up at his mom and yelled, “Awoo...awoo awooo!” Here you go, mom. Mom, aren’t I the best?

“Awoo! Awooo!!” Mommy!! From now on I’ll catch fish for you to eat!

Shang Xi smiled and squatted down, taking out her phone. “Mommy’s taking a photo. Baby has grown up and can catch fish now. So awesome.”

“Mommy will enjoy this.”

The little wolf cub arrogantly lifted his chin.

Shang Xi took a photo, and naturally plucked a fish scale off of her son’s head. She asked, "Are you cold? Have you eaten enough? Do you still want to eat?"

"Awoo..." Baby Shang shook his head. He wasn't cold and didn't want to eat anymore. He wanted to catch fish for his mom.

He turned around with an “Awoo,” and jumped back into the water.

In the meantime, Shang Xi was messaging Zhou Ziyou.

She typed into her phone and sent a voice message: “Did you see the photo I sent you? Baby Shang caught that fish. Awesome right? From now on your auntie here will enjoy good food.”

Just then, Gu Wen, who had been looking at the crucian carp on the ground, suddenly spoke: “I can catch bigger ones.”

Shang Xi: “Oh.”

Wasn't that to be expected?

Comparing with a four year old cub... This lone wolf really...

Before she could even finish thinking, she saw Gu Wen suddenly reveal his big ears and big tail. His palms instantly grew wider and his nails longer and sharper, turning into giant wolf paws. He nimbly leaped into the water in one go.

"..."

No way, right? Was he really competing with her son?

Isn't he bullying people too much? Isn't this lone wolf being a little too childish?

Shang Xi was truly speechless.

The next second, Gu Wen broke through the water surface, the upper half of his body exposed. His enormous wolf paws clutched the gills of a big fish as it struggled violently, sending splashes of water flying everywhere.

...That was too fast, wasn't it??

Shang Xi was dumbfounded. This was just outrageous! It hadn't even been a minute since he entered the water!

Gu Wen seemed to be hacking as he threw six big fish in front of Shang Xi in one go – bass, carp, sheatfish, all appearing to be at least a meter long.

Especially that sheatfish. Shang Xi took a deep breath as she estimated it to be nearly twenty jin. At the vegetable market she used to shop at, that fish would go for eighty yuan per jin.

It was as if with a shake of her head, saying no,

Gu Wen would become very upset.

A wolf of such distinguished status had handed over all of his emotions to her, letting her dominate.

She felt somewhat complicated. What exactly was this lone wolf hoping for...

With his status and position, what didn't he have? Yet he insistently bumped his head against her wall.

If she didn't open her door, he would keep knocking his head against it.

Would he remain fixated on her even if he bled from smashing his head open?

Many of the pursuers she encountered would leave after knocking on her door a few times without her answering.

Perhaps Gu Wen would just persist a little longer than them.

Maybe two months or half a year? Then Gu Wen would also give up and depart?

She would see that day arrive.

"I can't finish this many fish myself. I'll just take this one," she pointed at the giant sheatfish.

He could handle the rest of the fish himself.

This lake would probably become her son's frequent fishing spot from now on.

"Okay."

Shang Xi noticed Gu Wen's expression didn't visibly change, but the large tail behind him began to wag.

Was he happy?

Curious, she glanced downward at the swaying tip of his big tail again.

Then she heard Gu Wen's somewhat uneasy voice. He lightly coughed and spoke in a low tone, "You...still haven't praised me."

Somehow, Shang Xi also became a little awkward.

Seriously, who else was like him? He was already a fully grown wolf yet still repeatedly sought praise...

"Um... I think you're very amazing. I'm not just being polite. You are very strong."

Gritting her teeth, she uttered a few sentences, feeling her embarrassed face start burning.

Just then, Baby Shang caught another four jin big fish and crawled onto shore. As soon as he arrived, he saw several super————big fish in front of mommy, instantly making the crucian carp he had caught look pitifully thin and insignificant.

Baby Shang froze in shock.

Taking one look at his dad, everything became clear!

Dad was cheating!

Dad went overboard!

"Awooo!!!" He got a little angry and let out a furious roar.

"Awoo! Awoo!!" The poor little wolf cub tossed away his fish and rushed over to his mommy for consolation.

Good night, end of update.
