Chapter 968: Chapter 973: The Misfortune Outweighs the Fortune for the Silly Husky
Of course, while reaping the benefits also meant — they perfectly missed Little Gaiya’s school pick-up time.
By the time they hurried to the school, most of the cubs had already left.
Little Gaiya sat on a stone stool in the playground with a drooping face, accompanied by a female teacher.
Su Tang walked up to him, "Hey~ Little Yaya, I’ve come to pick you up from school~"
Upon hearing the voice, Little Gaiya’s eyes suddenly lit up, but then he seemed to remember something, huffed softly, and turned away to sulk.
"Who are you giving the cold shoulder to? Is the little tiger cub’s skin itching for a beating?" Ye Qiao, always quick to temper, couldn’t stand it and was ready to punch him with her fist balled up.
Su Tang quickly grabbed Ye Qiao, and with a helpless smile, she shook her head.
"It’s my fault, I remembered Little Gaiya’s school time wrong, I promise it won’t happen again, okay?"
Little Gaiya glanced at Su Tang, clearly wanting to forgive her, but seeming to be afraid of something, he hesitated to speak, his awkward little manner was endearing.
Su Tang stepped forward and took Little Gaiya’s hand, "Come on, let’s go home. I’ll make you something delicious that you’ve never had before."
A child’s attention is easily diverted, and at the mention of food, Little Gaiya instantly perked up.
"I’ve never had it before? What is it? How delicious is it?"
Su Tang smiled, "It’s a secret, you’ll find out once I make it."
On the way home, as soon as they approached the house, they heard Erha’s ghostly howling, which was painfully piercing to the ears.
Su Tang, feeling a slight headache, pinched her temples, wondering how she was going to comfort it later.
Upon hearing the howling, Little Gaiya’s eyes brightened, "It’s Erha!"
Then, breaking free from Su Tang’s hand, he dashed into the house like a cannonball, tumbling to the ground next to Erha and wrapping himself around its neck.
"Hahaha, Erha, it really is you, I’ve missed you so much, did you miss me?"
"Aoowwwwwww~"
Erha looked bewildered as it got tackled and started to roll uncontrollably, dazed and confused.
"Erha, have you lost weight? Why do I feel like you’re not as big as before when I hug you?"
"Aoowwwww!"
When Little Gaiya turned over on top, Erha felt like it would be squashed to the point of spitting blood. What did it mean it got skinny? It was Little Gaiya who had gotten fatter!
"Erha, what’s wrong, aren’t you happy to see me?"
"Aoowwwwwwwww!!"
Happy, it was too happy indeed. Where was its master?! Didn’t it come to the rescue yet?!
As Su Tang entered the door, she automatically ignored Erha’s pleading gaze and its agonizing cries for help.
She even very ’kindly’ suggested, "Yaya, the space inside is small, you can take Erha outside to play. I’ll make you something delicious, and I’ll call you when it’s ready."
Little Gaiya’s eyes lit up, "Okay, Aunty."
Afterward, Little Gaiya carried Erha with great effort and dragged it outside.
Erha felt its hindquarters clench, sensing growing danger as it struggled desperately. It even showed its claws and clung to the floor but still couldn’t escape its fate of being subdued.
So it goes, in the face of absolute strength, everything else is a paper tiger.
Once the boy and dog had vanished from the house, and it was quieter, Ye Qiao clicked her tongue, "I fear Erha is in for more bad than good."
Su Tang raised an eyebrow, "How so?"
Ye Qiao laughed helplessly, "In school, the beastmen teach the cubs to hunt with their beast bodies. You don’t know, but he’s given the Long-eared Beast and Gugu Beast quite a hard time. Now they avoid him whenever they see him."
