In the wolf cub’s memories, not long after it was born, its mother had told it how despicable and vicious humans were. Silver Moon Wolves were proud to the core and would never be controlled by despicable humans.
Its mother was killed because she was unwilling to be controlled by those humans and was unwilling to be captured by them.
In the end, this black cat was now telling it that those humans were its servants.
No matter how he looked at it, this was too unbelievable.
The Nightmare Cat saw that it did not believe it, so it let it watch.
The Nightmare Cat walked outside with cat steps and jumped onto Lu Xiaocha’s shoulder.
“I’m thirsty.”
Lu Xiaocha did not understand. Lu Beichen, who was beside her, calmly fetched a glass of water for the Nightmare Cat to drink.
“I want milk.”
Lu Xiaocha said, “Nonsense. Where can I find milk for you now? Drink water first.”
The Nightmare Cat smacked its lips and thought to itself that it was lucky that the wolf cub did not understand human language. Otherwise, it would have been exposed.
After drinking some water, it complained that it was hungry again.
This guy was very delicate. Almost everyone in the Lu family knew that other than Lu Xiaocha who did not spoil it, the others more or less did.
Lu Beichen always brought some snacks for it when he came out.
Of course, it was mainly for his sis. What he gave the Nightmare Cat was just a bonus.
“Xiaocha, are you hungry? I brought some snacks like dried mango beef jerky.”
Lu Xiaocha quickly nodded. “Thank you, Brother.”
Then, she took a piece of mango and started munching on it.
The Nightmare Cat was munching on a piece of dried fish.
After eating, he licked his mouth and claws.
Lu Xiaocha thought of serious business. “What were you talking to that wolf cub just now? Did you say what I asked you to say?”
The Nightmare Cat stopped licking its paws and shook its whiskers. “Am I such an unreliable cat? I’m trying to persuade it. I’m not done yet. I’ll go over first.”
He could not say that he treated them as servants. Otherwise, Lu Xiaocha could pull all the fur off its body.
Lu Xiaocha narrowed her eyes as she watched it leave. “Why do I feel that this guy is hiding something from us?”
Fu Ye touched his chin. “It’s not a feeling, it absolutely is!”
The Nightmare Cat walked faster. When it reached the wolf cub, it raised its chin arrogantly.
“See? I’m already stepping on the shoulders of humans. They have to obediently let me do what I want. If I want to drink water, the servants have to pour water for me immediately. When I say I’m hungry, they bring food to my mouth.”
The wolf cub: “!!!”
It really did not expect this. For a moment, it was in a daze.
So… humans could be controlled as servants?
“That’s why you’re the stupidest to court death. You should survive and eat all their food so that they can run errands for you…”
The Nightmare Cat rambled on and on about its ‘experience’, its expression proud and complacent.
Even the wolf cub was fooled.
‘So are you still going to kill yourself?’
The wolf pup shook his head.
The Nightmare Cat licked its paws in satisfaction. “That’s right. The humans over there asked me to tell you that if you really don’t like this life, then make yourself stronger. When you can defeat that man, they will let you go.”
The wolf cub’s eyes lit up. “Really?”
The Nightmare Cat shook its whiskers in disdain. “What’s so good about being outside? You might as well rely on these humans for food to become stronger so that no one and mutated beasts can bully you in the future.”
The wolf cub didn’t answer it, but it really didn’t have the heart to go on a hunger strike now.
The Nightmare Cat held its head high and returned to report its achievements like a hero.
“Don’t worry, there’s nothing I can’t solve. It’s just a wolf cub.”
Fu Ye said, “Thank you. Remember the fish I promised you. When I return to the heretic bureau, I’ll accept a mission at sea.”
This time, Fu Ye sent meat in for the wolf cub. The wolf cub looked at him warily before wolfing down the food.
Fu Ye squatted on the spot and did not move. Seeing the wolf cub eating so ferociously, the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile.
With the wolf cub problem resolved, Fu Ye brought Lu Xiaocha and Lu Beichen to his house as guests.
Grandpa Fu was also there and quickly greeted them.
After eating the life-prolonging pill and the Vigor Consolidating Pill, Old Master Fu looked much younger. His originally gray hair had mostly turned black, and he looked energetic. He was a soldier to begin with. When he walked, his back was straight, and he still looked very imposing.
Now, he looked like the youngest among his circle of good friends. Many people thought that he had taken a pill to rejuvenate his youth and asked him what was going on.
He did not mention the life-prolonging pill, but the Vigor Consolidating Pill.
In the previous auction, many people had gone for those pills. After eating them, their minds and bodies would indeed be much more relaxed, but none of them had the same effect as Old Fu.
After having dinner at the Fu residence, Lu Beichen and Lu Xiaocha returned to the Lu residence.
The next day, Lu Zhan did not go to work and brought his daughter and sons to his manor.
The manor occupied a large area and required a large amount of land and forest, so it was definitely not in the city. It was basically in relatively remote places.
“There’s a natural hot spring in the manor here. It takes up more land. Most of the trees are red maple trees. There are many fruit trees and plums. If you like them, you can transplant them over.
“Moreover, because of that hot spring, it’s actually quite convenient to plant fruits here. The temperature here won’t be too cold even in winter, so you can plant some vegetables and fruits in winter.”
Lu Zhan spoke very little. Along the way, Pei Anran introduced him to her daughter.
The motorcycle drove all the way up the mountain. There were red maple trees everywhere. In autumn, these leaves would all turn red. From afar, it looked like the sunset had fallen. It was so beautiful.
Pei Anran said, “There’s also a ginkgo tree with five people hugging it at the hot spring. I like that ginkgo tree the most. It’s especially beautiful in spring, summer, autumn, and winter. It’s just that it’s more eye-catching in autumn because in autumn, the ginkgo leaves will turn bright yellow. It’s especially spectacular.”
As she spoke, she took out the photo she had taken on her phone and showed it to her daughter.
“Look, isn’t it spectacular and beautiful?”
The ginkgo tree in the photo stood in a courtyard like a giant. Autumn had dyed the ginkgo tree with a bright yellow color. The layers of leaves were like a waterfall falling. It was extremely beautiful.
Layers of bright yellow leaves fell from the ground and the hot spring water not far away, as if a thick blanket had been laid on the ground.
“Nice!”
Pei Anran smiled. “Right? It’s best to come here to the hot spring when it’s cold. Moreover, even if there’s no greenhouse installed in the manor here, some fruits can grow. They taste quite good.”
