The little spider's black clothes were already stained with blood.
He stubbornly refused Xie Chiyuan's help and refused to have Xie Chiyuan bandage his wounds.
"Tiger cubs."
Xie Chiyuan turned to look at the tiger cub and said in a low voice, "When Qiuqiu wakes up later, you can explain it to him yourself. By the way, don't tell your older brother about this."
Otherwise, Yu An would definitely settle accounts with him.
Yu An absolutely forbids the mutant babies from fighting each other.
Right now, a fight has broken out right under Xie Chiyuan's nose, resulting in bloodshed. He is definitely guilty of negligence in supervision.
Neither the little spider nor the tiger cub paid any attention to Xie Chiyuan.
The little spider cleaned its wounds by itself. The tiger cub had no sympathy for it; sparing it alive was already an act of mercy.
The tiger cub turned and left.
Xie Chiyuan hadn't left yet; he was still watching the little spider.
I don't know how much time passed.
As dawn broke, the little spider finally headed towards the tent.
Xie Chiyuan followed behind him to prevent him from suddenly falling.
When they got back to where they had pitched their tents, the little spider went to Chirp's tent.
Xie Chiyuan glanced at the tent next door, and after a long while, returned to his own.
Yu An was still asleep, but in a daze, looking like she was about to wake up.
Xie Chiyuan leaned in and kissed his warm forehead.
He held her in his arms through the blanket, not wanting to let the cool air from outside affect Yu An.
Yu An smelled his scent and instinctively wanted to snuggle into his arms.
The tiger cubs and other mutants are probably awake, so Xie Chiyuan can take this opportunity to rest briefly.
A while later.
Xie Chiyuan had finished resting, and Yu An in his arms had also woken up.
Yu An was trying to get up quietly without disturbing him.
Seeing him open his eyes, Yu An gave up on getting up, leaned over, and kissed his chin: "Good morning."
No matter how much she cried at night, Yu An always clung to Xie Chiyuan the most in the morning.
The little moments of intimacy between the two of them can only be understood by the two of them.
Xie Chiyuan lowered his head, his face still showing a lazy expression as he had just woken up.
He pointed to his lips.
Yu An: "..."
Yu An bit his lip.
After the two finished being affectionate, Xie Chiyuan habitually reached down and massaged Yu An's waist.
"Does it hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt."
To be honest, Yu An had already gotten used to Xie Chiyuan long before.
He'd be able to fight again the next day, even if it was something like last night.
Even though Xie Chiyuan heard him say it didn't hurt, he didn't stop what he was doing.
"Does it feel comfortable when I squeeze it like this?"
"Comfortable."
Even if your back doesn't hurt, it feels very comfortable to be massaged like this.
Upon hearing this, Xie Chiyuan patiently began massaging him.
The two of them nestled together, staying quietly in the tent.
Until a sound came from outside the tent.
Yu An's ears twitched. He stopped indulging in the pleasure and pushed Xie Chiyuan's hand away.
"There's a noise outside, let's get up."
Although Yu An didn't want to travel too early, he couldn't just linger like that.
He sat up first, dressed himself, and then went to help Xie Chiyuan get dressed.
Xie Chiyuan smiled at him and asked, "An'an, haven't we gotten it backwards?"
Logically speaking, it should be him dressing Yu An on such an early morning.
Yu An calmly buttoned his shirt and said, "You didn't get it backwards, your husband is dressing you."
Xie Chiyuan: "..."
Xie Chiyuan: "Who's my husband?"
Yu An, who had been trying to act as a husband in words, straightened up and replied, "I am the husband!"
The two men stared at each other, and just when Yu An thought he was going to continue arguing, Xie Chiyuan suddenly leaned closer to him.
The next second.
Xie Chiyuan pressed his cheek against his and said in an almost seductive tone, "An'an, my husband, can you kiss me?"
An An's husband, instantly smitten, quickly cupped her face and said, "Kiss me, kiss me, kiss me."
Yes, you can kiss!
In the brief moment when Yu An was rushing out, Xie Chiyuan received a long kiss.
After the two of them had had their fill of being lovey-dovey, Yu An lifted the tent flap and went outside.
As soon as Yu An went outside, she saw Qiu Qiu.
Not only Chiu Chiu, but also Tiger Cub, Eight Cub, Little Spider, and Seven Cub, who also just arrived.
Why are you all gathered here?
Yu An asked in confusion, "What happened?"
The kids are never early risers, so this time of day is considered early for them.
He was quite surprised that his son was up so early.
Xiao Jiu and Si Zai were still asleep, which was in line with their usual habits.
The air was filled with the stench of blood.
Yu An's expression changed slightly after smelling this scent.
He walked a few steps closer and saw the little spiders circling around.
"Gu's father went to get the first-aid kit."
When Chiu Chiu saw her older brother coming over, she said something to him.
Both Bazai and Qizai were yawning, their eyes still sleepy.
Chiu Chiu's eyes were red, and her little face looked like she had just been angry.
Yu An looked around and saw that the little spider was injured and waiting to be bandaged.
When he asked, Chiu Chiu lowered her head and said, "Meow Meow and Liu Liu are fighting."
Yu An: "..."
Yu An's eyelids twitched: "When was it done?"
"Last night."
As Qiuqiu spoke, she became upset again: "They didn't tell me why they were fighting, and Liuliu bled a lot."
Just then, Gu Ainan walked over with a first-aid kit.
Gu Ainan was very skilled at treating wounds, and in no time he had finished treating the little spider's wounds.
"Alright, now you need to rest well. The pain will subside on its own."
Although these injuries look serious, none of them are fatal.
For aberrations, as long as it's not a fatal injury, it's not considered a major injury.
Although Gu Ainan had treated his injuries, he was helpless regarding the atmosphere between the children.
Chiu Chiu didn't know why they were fighting, and Yu An couldn't find out either.
But Yu An gave the tiger cub a good talking-to.
Given the vast disparity in strength between the tiger cub and the little spider, the tiger cub should have anticipated such consequences before taking action.
The tiger cub listened to its older brother's admonition to get along well with them, and didn't say much.
The children's situation was left unresolved, leaving Yu An extremely frustrated.
Feeling frustrated, his attention naturally turned to Xie Chiyuan.
"Weren't you on night watch? How could you let them fight? And fight so badly?"
"Tell me, what were you doing when they were fighting? Were you just watching?"
Xie Chiyuan, whose guess was accurate, touched the tip of his nose with a slightly guilty expression.
"An'an, this has nothing to do with me."
In order to shift the blame, Xie Chiyuan simply told Yu An the real reason.
"They fought because of Chiu Chiu."
"An'an, didn't you notice? The way this little spider is staring at Chiu Chiu, it's like it wants to possess Chiu Chiu and not let anyone touch it?"
Xie Chiyuan didn't give Yu An any time to prepare before telling him the whole story of the chaotic scene surrounding Qiuqiu.
