Liu Zixuan had originally wanted to show off in front of the beauties in a flashy way, let them see how clever the blue leopard was.
But he never expected that the blue leopard once again raised its head and gave him a contemptuous look.
Huh, why "once again"?
Liu Zixuan pinched his forehead and thought carefully. Back when he first t this leopard, he’d already been despised by it several tis.
The few beauties beside him saw this and imdiately covered their mouths, snickering.
Doudou, on the other hand, slipped out of Liu Ruyan’s arms, waved at the blue leopard and said, "Little Blue, co here and say hi to the big sisters."
Sothing jaw-dropping happened: the blue leopard quickly got up, shook its body twice, and then walked over step by step with a very arrogant gait.
Liu Ruyan, Sister An, and Ying Qingning were definitely scared when they saw such a big guy, as any girls would be, but the blue leopard didn’t rush forward rudely. Instead, it squatted there very gently and slowly raised its front paw, stretching it out as if it were offering a hand for a handshake.
Doudou laughed. "Sister Ruyan, Little Blue is very gentle, it won’t bite. Go up and shake its paw."
Liu Ruyan hesitated for a mont, then carefully stepped forward and grabbed Little Blue’s paw. Little Blue didn’t move, looking extrely obedient. Seeing this, Sister An and Ying Qingning also went up to greet it.
Liu Zixuan stroked his chin and muttered, "This guy is definitely a pervert among leopards, otherwise there’s no way he’d beco this ta as soon as he sees pretty girls."
"Shouldn’t that be a horny leopard?" Huang Youcai muttered from the side.
Liu Zixuan glared at him, annoyed. "Ever heard of a taphor? No?"
"Fine, you’re the boss, whatever you say!" Huang Youcai curled his lips and walked inside first, muttering that he wanted to see what good food Sister Lian had prepared.
The few beauties were having a great ti playing with Little Blue, and Liu Zixuan also squeezed over. But when he looked more carefully, he noticed Little Blue seed a bit different from before.
Of course, Liu Zixuan felt that the change wasn’t that its size had gotten bigger, but that the blue on its body seed to have faded a little, with faint traces of red mixed in, though not very eye‑catching.
And the two protruding things on Little Blue’s forehead had also grown a bit, vaguely like the antlers a deer has just sprouted.
"Has it done anything strange?" Liu Zixuan asked.
Doudou pouted and thought for a bit. "It really has. About a month and a half ago it suddenly went on a hunger strike. I tried all kinds of ways, even all its favorite foods, but it wouldn’t eat. I was so worried I cried, afraid it would die. But after a week it actually went back to normal."
"On hunger strike for a week? No food, no water?" Liu Zixuan asked in surprise.
"Yeah, not even a sip of water." Doudou nodded. "But ever since that day I’ve always felt sothing about it changed, but no matter how I studied it, I couldn’t figure out what exactly changed."
"Just that one ti?"
"No, there was another ti half a month ago, sa hunger strike. And it disappeared for a whole day and night." Doudou hugged Little Blue’s neck and said distressedly, "When it ca back, it had so wounds on its body too."
Liu Zixuan stepped forward to take a closer look and frowned. "Even if it had wounds, they couldn’t have completely vanished in just half a month."
"That’s what I thought was weird too. I was even thinking about finding a vet for it, but who knew, after less than two days those wounds just disappeared." Doudou looked up and asked, "Brother Xuan, what on earth is going on?"
"Do you know where it went during that missing day and night?"
Doudou shook her head. "It ca back from the direction of the neighboring village. I asked Huang Youcai to take over there to look around, but we didn’t find the slightest trace of anything."
The direction of the neighboring village... Liu Zixuan thought carefully. He had originally brought Little Blue out from the mountains of that neighboring village. Could it be that on that missing day and night, Little Blue went back to where it used to be?
Seeing Liu Zixuan frown, Doudou imdiately got anxious. She hurried over and shook his arm, asking, "Brother Xuan, what’s wrong?"
Liu Zixuan glanced at Doudou, then walked over to Little Blue’s side and grinned slyly. "Little Blue, did you go into heat or sothing, ran off that day to have a date with so other leopard?"
"Roar!" Little Blue let out a low roar, thick with dissatisfaction.
Liu Zixuan scratched his head. "Don’t tell you’re a weirdo who doesn’t like leopards? Did you set your sights on the sow at Auntie Zhang’s place at the west end of the village?"
"Roar!"
Little Blue suddenly raised a paw and shoved Liu Zixuan, making him stagger backward.
Such a mighty posture was a huge contrast to how gentle it had been in front of the beauties just now, but it also showed that this leopard really could understand human speech!
The play‑fighting between man and leopard made the beauties beside them burst into laughter.
Liu Zixuan got up, extrely displeased. "You gotta be kidding . A little brat of a leopard dares lay a paw on ? You’ve really grown so nerve!"
"Brother Xuan, you’re not allowed to bully Little Blue!"
Just as Liu Zixuan was about to give the blue leopard a good lesson, Doudou directly stood in front of him.
Liu Zixuan was instantly helpless. What made him feel even more helpless was that Little Blue, hiding behind Doudou’s back, actually shot him another look full of contempt.
"What are you all standing in the yard for? Hurry up and co inside!"
At this extrely awkward mont, Sister Lian walked out from the house, smiling as she spoke.
Liu Ruyan took Sister An and Ying Qingning over and started introducing them to Sister Lian. There were naturally a lot of topics between won, and in no ti they were already very familiar with one another.
Liu Zixuan couldn’t be bothered to keep squabbling with Little Blue. He went back into the house, saw the table filled with fruits and seeds, and casually grabbed a handful to munch on.
"Sister Lian, you and Doudou have been living at the clinic this whole ti?"
"We’re used to living there, and I don’t want to move back and forth. It’s a hassle." Sister Lian put down what she was doing, sat by the table, and said with a smile, "I just figured you’d all co back for the New Year. The rooms upstairs have already been tidied up for you. Go up and get so rest. At noon the village is having a Hundred‑Family Feast!"
"Where’s the Hundred‑Family Feast being held?" Liu Ruyan asked.
"At the factory canteen. That’s the only place big enough to fit all of us." Sister Lian stood up as she spoke. "You all rest. I’ll go over and give them a hand."
"Then let’s go help too. It’s not that tiring coming over from Ghost Wood City anyway." Liu Ruyan suggested.
The beauties left with Doudou in tow. Huang Youcai, cigarette dangling from his mouth, asked, "Brother Xuan, the won are all off working. Should we go have so fun at Zhu Yi’s manor?"
Liu Zixuan raised an eyebrow. "You go ahead first. I suddenly feel like taking a walk sowhere."
"Where to?" Huang Youcai asked curiously, obviously wanting to tag along.
Liu Zixuan thought for a mont. He’d already been to that place before anyway, so it was no big deal to bring Huang Youcai. "Alright then, go unclip Little Blue’s chain. We’ll take it with us."
