Lingzi, who grew up being chased by monsters and thus had a strong heart, probably had a weakness or something she liked was those soft and furry small animals. This was because all the furry monsters she had met since she was a child were very cute (?), which was why Lingzi didn't like those furry monsters. In short, it was only when she was faced with these cute and ignorant little animals that she would feel that she was actually just an ordinary person.
Therefore, even if she caught this little fellow who was pretending to be a ghost, she didn't have any intention of harming it. She only wanted to figure out its intentions. Who knew that before she could even ask anything, this little thing fainted, giving her a fright.
Just when she was extremely worried and didn't know how to deal with it, she suddenly heard a rumbling sound. Reiko didn't react for a moment and was stunned for a moment. She stared uncertainly at the little guy in her arms, who was so weak that it seemed like it could die at any time. She hesitantly put her ear near its stomach, and then heard the rumbling sound again.
In an instant, Reiko's willowy eyebrows furrowed into a frown. She looked up and carefully sized up the little ball in her hands.
The feeling under her hand wasn't very good. Under the moonlight, she could see that the white soft fur was a little dirty and knotted. Its stomach was flat … No, it should be said that its entire body was very thin and weak, the kind that was only skin and bones.
So, it fainted from hunger?
Without hesitation, Reiko turned around and wanted to run to the kitchen. However, as soon as she moved, she felt something heavy under her feet. She looked down and saw that it was actually another little white ball.
Compared to the one in her hand, it was even dirtier. It was clinging to her calf, and when it met her gaze, it bared its teeth threateningly at her. Coupled with that "Awoo" sound, it was really … not threatening at all.
"Is it your partner?" Lingzi asked. She bent down and wanted to touch the small pendant on her leg. However, when it saw Lingzi's hand reaching out to it, it closed its eyes and bit Lingzi's calf with a sound of "Ah woo", perhaps because it was too scared.
"Ouch …" The sudden stinging pain made Reiko gasp and almost throw the little ball in her hand away. Fortunately, the little ball on her leg knew that it had caused trouble after biting her leg, and immediately let go. However, it still didn't let go and held her tightly. Yuanyuan's eyes were filled with tears, and it looked at her pitifully with a trembling body.
"What, it's obviously you guys who are bullying me …" Reiko muttered. She grabbed it by the back of its neck and pulled it off her leg.
Xiao Tuanzi's four limbs kept waving in the air, thinking that she was going to be thrown out. She was so scared that she kept crying. Who would have thought that her four limbs would soon find a point of support. They were soft, fragrant … and warm.
The little ball's entire body stiffened. It secretly opened its eyes and found that it was actually being hugged by a soft chest, and next to it was its partner who had fainted from hunger. At that moment, it couldn't care about anything else and wanted to wake its partner up. However, no matter how it cried and even pushed, the other party didn't wake up. Instantly, it became even more panicked and kept howling.
A white and soft hand suddenly covered its anxious little head and rubbed it very gently. The warmth transmitted through the contact calmed it down. The little tiger stared at her with its round eyes in a daze.
Reiko had once been too lonely, so she picked up a white kitten and raised it. That kitten had accompanied her for many years. Every time it got into trouble, it would look at her with this kind of pure and innocent eyes, causing her to be unable to get angry at all.
She tried her best to soften her voice and pacify it. "Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you and your partner. I'll take you to eat."
As if it felt her kindness, the little ball stopped struggling. It howled and its body suddenly became soft. It quietly lay on her chest and didn't move anymore. Reiko hurriedly took them to the kitchen.
However, just as they walked under the porch at the entrance of the kitchen, Reiko bumped into three "thieves" who were in the middle of stealing.
Yes, after the two little balls in her arms failed in their plot, there were three other little balls that looked similar to the two in her arms who were trying to steal her dinner. It was the bowl that she had put on the table after eating two mouthfuls. She didn't know how they got the bowl to the ground, but they were carefully dragging or pushing the bowl in another direction.
Lingzi raised her eyebrows and took a look at the two beasts in her arms. After all this time, these beasts were still using the strategy of creating a diversion? Who taught them … to be so smart!
Lingzi sighed when she saw the three skinny Tuanzi who wanted to move faster but had to worry about not spilling the porridge. They were so anxious that their eyes were brimming with tears.
When the three "thieves" heard the sigh, they froze at the same time. One of them lost its balance and fell face first.
The other two quickly turned their heads. When they saw Lingzi, who was in a condescending position, and their companions in her arms, who didn't know whether they were dead or alive, all of their fur instantly stood up. They kept howling and baring their teeth, trying hard to make a ferocious look. However, their slightly trembling little bodies couldn't be ignored.
Reiko sighed again. Anyone who saw the little tigers that looked like kittens making such expressions that they thought they were super fierce, but in fact, they were extremely cute. Their hearts would soften.
To be honest, if it weren't for the word "Wang" above their heads, which indicated their breed, she would really think that they were five kittens.
Reiko took two steps forward. The two little tigers were so scared that they immediately stepped back and huddled together. The little tiger that was stunned from the fall also got up. It staggered two steps and fell into a ball again.
Coincidentally, the little tiger that fainted in her arms also woke up. When it saw its little friends, it immediately began to struggle again. Reiko glanced at it and squatted down to put the two little tigers on the ground. Then, she walked straight into the kitchen.
There was no sound for a while, and the five little tigers were a little confused. One of them, who was a little braver, walked to the door of the kitchen tremblingly and cautiously stuck out its small head. When it saw Lingzi holding another bowl of porridge and sitting there to eat without any intention of catching them, it hurriedly returned to its partner's side. After a few howls and an unknown communication, the five little tigers began to carry the bowl of cold porridge again.
Reiko listened to the movements outside as she ate. When the sounds disappeared, she quietly went out to take a look. Sure enough, even the tigers and the bowl were gone.
Reiko wanted to sigh again. Why did she feel that she had sighed more today than she had in her life? However … Reiko touched her chin. If the tigers were here, their owners should be here too.
Thinking of the skinny little tigers, Reiko turned around and went to the cellar again. She took out the meat, cut it into pieces and threw it into the pot to cook a pot of lean meat porridge again.
When the pot of porridge was ready, Reiko found six bowls and filled them with porridge. She took an oil lamp and prepared to look for the owner. As soon as she stepped out of the door, she saw two little tigers running over, one in front and one behind. The little tiger in front instinctively stopped when it saw her. The little tiger behind didn't look where it was going and bumped into the little tiger in front of it. The little tiger in front of it was knocked away by the excessive force. It rolled a few times on the ground and didn't stop until it reached Reiko's feet.
"Are you okay …" Reiko was also shocked. She quickly squatted down to check. The little tiger in the back also ran over. It came to its partner's side and whimpered softly. Fortunately, the little tiger wailed and quickly stood up on its own. It was probably a little dizzy as its head was swaying.
Seeing that it wasn't injured, Reiko breathed a sigh of relief. She reached out to touch its head, but then she remembered how scared they were just now. She retracted her hand in the air and got up to walk into the kitchen. Just as she took a step, something soft and meaty stuck to her calf.
"Awoo …" Its round eyes looked at her pleadingly, filled with a pitiful mist.
Reiko was stunned for a moment. Before she could react, the other one also climbed onto her other leg. It just happened to press on the spot where the skin was bitten just now. She frowned slightly.
Perhaps it was because their expressions weren't too good, but Reiko clearly felt the two little guys shrink back a little. However, they still hugged her leg and refused to let go.
Reiko had no choice. She squatted down and rubbed their heads one by one. Then, she carefully put the two of them in her arms and brought them back to the kitchen.
The meat porridge on the ground wasn't cold yet, and the air was filled with a tempting aroma. The two tigers, who had been hungry for a long time without spiritual energy, stopped struggling. The tips of their noses kept sniffing, and their stomachs made a long series of "gululu" sounds one after another.
Reiko squatted down and put the two little tigers in front of the porridge bowl. Before the two of them could react, she touched their heads and whispered, "Eat."
Reiko thought that the bowl of sweet potato porridge from before was definitely not enough for the five little tigers, so the two of them came to look for it again. The gululu sounds just now were the evidence. However, what surprised Reiko was that the two little tigers were obviously very hungry, but they didn't eat. After looking at each other, they came to her together again. One bit her socks and dragged her out, while the other used its head to push her out.
Reiko was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted and asked in a low voice, "You want to take me somewhere else?"
Hearing this, one of the little tigers' golden round eyes sparkled. Reiko was silent for a moment. She poked its forehead with a finger, then pointed at the porridge. "Do you want to bring this porridge?"
Once again, the two of them rubbed against her with gratitude. Reiko rubbed their heads and smiled. Their curved lips and eyes made her feel warm all over. The two little tigers howled twice, rubbed against her legs intimately, and couldn't wait to lead the way in front.
