After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 555

Chapter 555: Zhouzhou Learns the Language of Wolves
The wolf cub had just been born and still needed to suckle from its mother, but Zhouzhou didn’t take it away.

After briefly touching it, she returned it to Little Five’s side and went to find the vet to inquire about a myriad of care tips for raising wolves.

Lu Ye watched from the side, his gaze complex. He never understood the charm of this chubby little girl, which could make Little Five give her a wolf cub after only seeing her for the second time.

It was known that wolves were naturally distant from humans. Over the years, it was only he who had lived among the wolf pack, becoming familiar with Little Five and the others since childhood, which allowed him to approach them closely.

But how could this little chubby girl be able to?

Noticing his gaze, Zhouzhou looked over, blinked her eyes, and asked in confusion, “Brother, what’s wrong?” Unable to comprehend, Lu Ye voiced his perplexity.

Upon hearing this, Zhouzhou also thought carefully and suddenly brightened. She proudly proclaimed, “Because I’m chubby!”

Her grandmother had said that chubby equals cute, so it was only natural for the wolf cub to be close to her. Hmm! It made perfect sense to her.

She didn’t mind Lu Ye’s changing expression. She was fully focused on the wolf cub, watching it intently without even noticing the passage of time. It wasn’t until Ye Lingfeng came to fetch her that she reluctantly left.

On the way, Zhouzhou excitedly recounted the recent events to him, “Dad, Wolf Uncle gave me the best-looking little wolf!”

Hearing this, Ye Lingfeng was also surprised, “What’s going on?” Those wolves were the most solitary, always only close to Lu Ye.

Lu Ye was also solitary, spending less time with those wolves than with Little Five. What had Zhouzhou done to be able to win over the wolf cubs?

Zhouzhou thought for a moment, rubbing her chubby chin, and tilted her head, saying, “Maybe it’s because I did a little good deed for the wolf aunt?”

“Hmm?” Ye Lingfeng looked at her puzzled. Zhouzhou then recounted what she had witnessed, which seemed to be the most plausible explanation.

Ye Lingfeng nodded and didn’t say much more, only advising, “You can play with the wolf cub, but stay away from Lu Ye.” “Why?” Zhouzhou was puzzled.

Ye Lingfeng stopped in his tracks, looking down at Zhouzhou seriously, “He’s very dangerous.”

Lu Ye had grown up with wolves, and it was more accurate to say he was a wolf than a human.

He lacked human emotions. In his eyes, humans were less important than wolves.

However, instead of being afraid upon hearing this, Zhouzhou became even more excited. Her eyes were full of admiration, “Brother is so amazing!”

Raised by wolves, how cool! No wonder he could understand the language of wolves. Just thinking about it made Zhouzhou’s eyes light up.

She exclaimed, “Dad, I’ve made friends with Laifu now. Can I learn wolf language in the future?”

With her head held high, Zhouzhou stretched out her neck and let out a howl, looking at Ye Lingfeng triumphantly, “Dad, look, I can do it!”

Ye Lingfeng: “…”

Another day of worrying about his daughter’s mental state. He furrowed his brow, suddenly realizing that children’s thinking was really different from adults.

What was considered an anomaly to adults could seem quite impressive to children. He wrinkled his face, but upon meeting Zhouzhou’s expectant gaze, he swallowed the words he was about to say.

Well, since Laifu was now following Zhouzhou, Lu Ye wouldn’t harm her even if he didn’t like it. He tacitly approved of this matter.

Zhouzhou became interested and didn’t want to go back. She spent every day by Little Five’s side, guarding Laifu.

From time to time, she would let out a howl, leaving Little Five and the wolf king at a loss for words as they exchanged glances.

Their savior didn’t seem very smart. Lu Ye’s mouth twitched. He hadn’t expected Ye Lingfeng’s daughter to be like this, and what surprised him the most was that Zhouzhou wasn’t afraid of him.

Not only that, she showed extraordinary closeness to him. For example, at this moment, Zhouzhou ran over, pulling his hand, and eagerly said, “Brother, let’s spar.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Ye glanced at her and shook his head, “You can’t beat me.”

Hearing this, Zhouzhou was not discouraged. On the contrary, she became more excited, “Exactly because I can’t beat you, that’s why I want to fight. What’s the point of fighting someone you can beat?”

This statement made Lu Ye regard Zhouzhou with a bit more respect.

He turned his gaze toward the little chubby girl, his eyes eventually landing on Laifu. If she was too weak, she might become a burden to his nephew in the future.

With this thought in mind, he stood up and said, “Let’s do this.”

Seeing that he agreed, Zhouzhou was overjoyed and immediately trotted after him.

Lu Ye, being a solitary person, didn’t like crowded places and rarely went to the training grounds. But here, in the Wolf Den, there was enough space.

The two stood facing each other, a large figure and a small one, while the Wolf King and a few other wolves squatted nearby, watching the scene unfold with interest.

“Brother, here I come.” With that, Zhouzhou let out a small cry, her chubby feet pushing off the ground as she charged toward Lu Ye.

Though she was chubby, her body was remarkably agile. The little fists she swung even carried a bit of wind, not to be underestimated.

Seeing this, the Wolf King’s posture straightened slightly, paying close attention.

Lu Ye had grown up among wolves, and with his beast-like instincts, he had realized from their first spar that Zhouzhou was no ordinary little girl. He didn’t relax for a moment, treating Zhouzhou as a genuine opponent.

Zhouzhou was small and short-legged, usually relying on speed to gain the upper hand. However, this time, she didn’t have much of an advantage because Lu Ye was even faster.

Moreover, his every move and strike was unpredictable, making it impossible for her to discern any pattern.

Zhouzhou took several hits and couldn’t even touch the hem of his clothes.

After another punch, which nearly hit her face, Lu Ye suddenly stopped and stepped back a few paces. He asked calmly, “Do you want to keep going?”

“Yes!” Zhouzhou didn’t hesitate and nodded directly, her eyes not showing any signs of defeat but instead growing more excited.

Lu Ye raised an eyebrow slightly. So, Ye Lingfeng’s kid wasn’t bad after all. With that thought, he didn’t ease up on his actions in the slightest.

Zhouzhou didn’t need him to.

Gradually, she started to pick up on some patterns, and as they sparred, she no longer found herself constantly on the losing side.

They sparred for over two hours before finally stopping.

Zhouzhou lay on the ground, panting heavily, her hair matted with sweat, some strands sticking out in all directions.

Lu Ye walked away.

Zhouzhou lay on the ground resting. The wolf king, who had been watching from the corner all along, suddenly walked over, nudged her hand, turned his back to her, and glanced at her before looking at his own back.

Confused, Zhouzhou looked at him, “Wolf Uncle, do you want me to ride on your back?”

“Howl—” The wolf king let out a howl.

Zhouzhou immediately got up and climbed onto his back. Responding with a howl of her own, “Howl—”

This time, she understood!
