Chapter 177: If one day, the wolf couldn’t bear the pain from the fiend transformation period and ran away without telling her, she would 100% be angry (3)
Even Little Bohe figured out why Grandma Ruyi was unhappy, but the three males in the Mo family were clueless.
Grandpa Mo had an uneasy feeling only because of Grandma Ruyi’s abnormality.
Since they had met yesterday, other than when she had gone out to hunt, Ruyi had been sticking close to him. Even at night, she insisted on squeezing into a small bed with him. For him, she had changed into an elderly appearance.
He didn’t want to waste her time and refused to get too close to her. If her abnormality was because she had gotten over him, that wouldn’t be a bad thing.
He was no longer that teenager that wasn’t well-versed in the things of the world. He had learned to forebear and bury his feelings.
Seeing Mo Bogui looking as if he understood everything, Qing Ruyi felt the fiery anger in heart rising to new heights. She didn’t want to talk to him anymore.
For the rest of the afternoon, while Ruan Qiuqiu comforted Little Yu and made baskets that could be carried on the back with Little Bohe by using feathers from the elephant bird and vines, she faced the calm Grandpa Mo, who looked as if he seen through life and death, and the seething Grandma Ruyi.
Seeing that it was getting dark and Grandma Ruyi didn’t have the intention of sending her home, she quietly reminded her, “That, um, Grandma Ruyi, it’s getting late…”
Before Ruan Qiuqiu could finish speaking, Little Bohe offered, “Older Sister Qiuqiu, you can sleep with me tonight!”
Hugging a thick animal skin blanket, she put it down and spread it on her little bed. She very proudly said, “Grandma helped make my bed a little bigger. It can definitely fit us both.”
Ruan Qiuqiu: “???” When did she say she was going to sleepover?
Qing Ruyi harrumphed and glowered at Grandpa Mo and insinuated, “What’s so good about dog men?”
Ruan Qiuqiu: “…”
Noticing Ruan Qiuqiu’s expression, Qing Ruyi turned to look at her. “The same goes for male demons.”
Ruan Qiuqiu: “…”
In the end, Ruan Qiuqiu was forced to have dinner at Grandpa Mo’s home and stuffed with a willow box of meat.
The sun had completely set by the time Grandma Ruyi relented with sending her home.
Ruan Qiuqiu held a lit willow branch from Grandma Ruyi to light their path in the night.
Grandma Ruyi walked very slowly. On the way there, she told Ruan Qiuqiu everything she knew about the nearby tribes.
After hearing that Ruan Qiuqiu was curious about the Winter Bear Tribe, Qing Ruyi stroked her chin. “Grandma will take you there tomorrow. If I go at my fastest speed, it’ll only take half a day to go there and back. It just so happens that I want to visit the market near the Winter Bear Tribe.”
When they were over ten minutes away from the cave, Grandma Ruy suddenly halted.
Qing Ruyi’s expression was somewhat strange. Surprised, she muttered, “Eh?” How could that wolf pup still move around when he was so deep in the fiend transformation period?
Ruan Qiuqiu was puzzled. Just as she was about to ask Grandma Ruyi why she suddenly stopped, a cold wind blew over them. The torch went out, but the snow in front of them was illuminated with a warm glow.
She instinctively raised her head, and she heard a familiar hoarse sound along with a threatening, low-pitched growl.
It was gray wolf Tianluo!
