NOVPUBWhen Shen Roujia heard Tu Lie’s words, she quickly wrapped the little wolf cub in her clothes and gave him a bright smile. “Big Brother, you’re the best.”
With that, Shen Roujia dashed back into her room.
After cleaning the cub’s wound, she realized it wasn’t as serious as it had initially seemed. It might have gotten worse on the way here, making it look more alarming than it was.
However, the cub was genuinely frail and didn’t seem to be in good health.
At some point, the cub opened its eyes and stared at Shen Roujia with a gaze so gentle, it was as if it were looking at its mother.
That innocent gaze reminded Shen Roujia of Xu Zening, who had also looked fragile and weak at first, as if a gust of wind could knock him over.
Shen Roujia quickly dismissed her thoughts and focused on the pure, clueless cub in front of her.
She understood that wolves also practiced survival of the fittest. The weak ones were often abandoned by the pack. Perhaps the cub’s siblings couldn’t bear to leave it behind, so they secretly brought it to Shen Roujia.
Sighing, Shen Roujia gently patted the cub’s head and said, “This can be your home too. When you’re strong enough, you can return to your old home or go wherever you want.”
Although she was talking to herself, the cub seemed to listen intently, as if it could understand her words.
Shen Roujia chuckled, “It’s like you really can understand.”
