Did Puppy Pick Up Fluffy Things on the Livestream Today? - Chapter 19

It turned out that having an experienced hand who had lived on this planet by one’s side really did make life as a novice cub much more comfortable.

Momo was currently lying in a hot spring, comfortably hugging Xue Qiu. He felt completely relaxed from the inside out, so much so that he felt like letting out a few howls to vent the exhaustion and frustrations of the past few days.

He had originally worried that the wounds on Xue Qiu’s body could not touch water, but seeing that the scabs on the little guy’s body had already fallen off, leaving only faint pink marks except for those on his eyes, Momo decided to take him into the spring.

The hot spring was located beneath the highest sub-peak at the far end of the cave. The depression in the middle where the mountains met had formed natural hot springs of various sizes.

As the two cubs enjoyed the spring comfortably, Luo Fei transformed into a fox and lay halfway across a high bare rock nearby, keeping a vigilant watch.

The hot spring was wonderful, secluded and warm, but it was still within the territory of the Yueshan Tribe and very close to their main base. If they were not careful, other wolf beastmen might come here.

“Ying.”

Luo Fei turned his head and gave a soft urge to the person and cat in the hot spring.

Momo could not understand the cry of a fox. He blinked, thinking the other had spotted another beastman, and instantly became tense.

His slender waist immediately lifted from the rock wall he was leaning against. He turned to pull Xue Qiu, who was still splashing in the water with his small paws, out of the spring. He hurriedly rubbed the snowy-white fur with water to ensure it was free of any dirt after the soak, then climbed ashore himself.

Luo Fei had helped him simply clean his only remaining beast-hide clothes, and putting them back on felt comfortable enough.

Momo paid great attention to hygiene, so there was no strange smell on the clothes.

He quickly tied the straps and ran to Luo Fei while carrying Xue Qiu.

“I am ready!”

Luo Fei was so startled that his tail fur bristled for a moment. His pink vertical pupils blinked, and it took a while for him to realize what had happened.

These two small cubs could not understand the sound of his fox form and thought he was rushing them, which was why they jumped out of the hot spring so quickly.

Actually, he just wanted to tell them to take their time because no one was there.

The three large red tails swayed on the rock as he thought for a moment.

Since the person and cat were out and had just finished bathing, it was not good for them to stay in the cold winter wind like this. He stood up, lazily stretched his paws, and then turned to lead Momo and Xue Qiu down the rock along a steep but hidden mountain path.

Back in the cave, Momo added some firewood to the campfire and felt physically and mentally refreshed.

“Sigh. A hot spring is simply the most wonderful thing in the world!” Momo could not help but sigh with contentment.

Luo Fei shifted back into human form. Seeing Xue Qiu nuzzling against Momo’s shin, and seeing how cozy the two little ones were, a bit more of a smile appeared on his face.

“It is good that you are comfortable. We will go again before the Deep Snow Period.”

“By the way, little beauty, I still do not know your name?”

Luo Fei tilted his eyebrows at Momo while looking down to skewer the partitioned Four-Horned Beast meat onto branches.

Momo blinked, suddenly remembering that he had been wary of this handsome fox sub-beastman all night. He had even mentioned Xue Qiu’s name but had not yet said his own.

He felt a bit embarrassed for a moment. “Sorry, sorry. I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Momo.”

He looked up and gave Luo Fei a sweet smile.

Luo Fei understood. “A very cute name.”

Seeing Luo Fei constantly helping to process the food and even perfectly skinning the Four-Horned Beast, Momo could not sit still. “Can I use the remaining large stones in the cave to build another stone bed for you against the left wall of the cave? However, I do not have extra hemp bags, so it might be a bit uncomfortable to sleep on.”

He tucked his soft black hair, which had become fluffy from the fire, behind his ear. As he spoke, he stood up to move the stones.

A flash of surprise crossed Luo Fei’s pink eyes, and the corners of his lips curled up. “Are you being this good to me? Actually, I can manage by turning into a fox. That is how I spent my time in the wild before.”

He clearly had not expected Momo to offer to build a small bed for him.

Momo did not stop and had already begun moving the first stone. “That will not do. Since you are going to live with us from now on, you cannot keep sleeping on the ground. A bed will definitely be more comfortable.”

With that, he placed the first large stone heavily against the rock wall.

Luo Fei thanked him with a smile. “Thank you, Momo.”

Hearing the familiar name, Momo’s ears turned red. “You are welcome.”

“Um, can I ask why you were kicked out of the tribe for hitting your partner beastman?”

Changing the subject, Momo cautiously asked this sensitive but curious question.

Luo Fei heard the question, but his expression remained unchanged, and a light smile still hung on his lips. “You do not have to ask so cautiously.”

“The number of sub-beastmen on the Beastman Planet is very small compared to beastmen. Everyone assumes one sub-beastman and one beastman form a partnership. Occasionally, some tribes allow one sub-beastman to have multiple beastmen, but no matter what, the requirement for loyalty to the beastman is very strict.”

Luo Fei’s voice grew colder at this point.

“My partner, no, I should say my former partner, is the son of the Luoxiu Tribe Leader. We were childhood friends and became partners after becoming adults. However, he thought a bit too highly of himself. Perhaps his beast brain was underdeveloped and he was ruled by his lower half. While I was pregnant with my first cub, he had a private meeting with another sub-beastman in the tribe.”

Luo Fei straightened his back, brushed the wood chips from his palms, and placed the four skewered pieces of meat over the fire.

“I do not have many strengths, but my nose is quite sensitive. I found out, and in a fit of rage, I beat him and that sub-beastman. I hit too hard and broke his leg. The Clan Leader felt he had lost face, so he kicked me out of the tribe on the grounds that I hit people recklessly and disrespected life by killing my own child.”

As he spoke, although Luo Fei’s tone sounded casual, a trace of sadness flashed through his pink eyes.

Momo froze and found it unbelievable. “Is your Clan Leader sick? Just because that idiot beastman is his son?!”

Little Momo, who had come to the Beastman Planet, swore for the first time. His handsome little face was full of righteous indignation.

Hearing this, he even forgot to put down the stone. Carrying the large object, he walked toward Luo Fei angrily.

“Also, how did that beastman have the face to stay in the tribe and let you be kicked out? Was your hand also ruined by them because of this?”

Momo could not help but look at Luo Fei’s scarred fingers with heartache. Those should have been a pair of perfect, breathtaking hands.

Luo Fei was startled when he saw the little beauty walking toward him with a large stone, thinking he was going to do something!

Hearing that Momo was only angry and indignant on his behalf, his heart was filled with a long-lost warm current.

“Put the stone down first. It is too heavy, do not tire yourself.”

“You are too young and were kicked out of the tribe very early. The Yueshan Tribe is considered a somewhat humane tribe and did not do anything too excessive to you. Later, I will tell you gossip from other tribes. There are many incredible things like this, and then you will know that not all beastmen on this planet are normal people.”

Even though he was the one who was hurt, Luo Fei was the first to comfort Momo.

Momo blinked and suddenly felt a bit sad.

He turned to set the last large stone in place, and a new simple stone bed began to take shape.

He sat back by the fire, close to Luo Fei.

“Are you very sad? Your little baby is gone, and you suffered such a serious injury.”

Momo had seen the undeniable sadness in Luo Fei’s pink eyes just now. Although he did not say it explicitly, a sub-beastman who had just become pregnant and encountered such a bad thing would surely feel very upset when remembering it, even if he had tenaciously persevered.

Thinking about it this way, Momo suddenly accepted the fact that men on this planet could also get pregnant.

Luo Fei shrugged and gave a light laugh, his voice faint. “It is definitely sad, but I was angry at the time. Looking back now, if I had to choose again, I would still make the same choice.”

“I can be kicked out of the tribe, but I must hit an idiot like that.”

“The cub was lost because my emotions fluctuated too much. I have recorded this debt against the Luoxiu Tribe, and one day, I will take my revenge.”

Luo Fei used his scarred hands to turn the roasting meat. His technique was clearly much better than Momo’s.

Since hearing his story, Momo’s mood had been very low. Xue Qiu leaned against his shin and gave a soft meow, so Momo picked him up and held him in his arms.

“It is okay, Brother Luo Fei. I am telling you, Xue Qiu was also picked up by me. At first, even surviving was a problem for him, but I still saved him. Look at his eyes.”

Momo held Xue Qiu up higher so Luo Fei could see him clearly.

“These two wounds made it impossible for him to open his eyes at first! But I still saved him. Look at this pair of golden kitten eyes now! How beautiful they are!”

“So, by extension, you were also ‘picked up’ by me. I will definitely help you heal your wounds and live a good life!”

“As for your revenge, when we have the chance in the future, we will definitely retaliate hard!”

Momo’s silver puppy-like eyes looked at Luo Fei earnestly, and his handsome little face squeezed out two small dimples because of his effort.

His voice was clear and vibrant, and with his freshly dried, fluffy black hair, he looked like a little elf who had suddenly stumbled into a cold, snowy realm.

This sight left Luo Fei stunned.

His prominent Adam’s apple bobbed up and down. After a moment, his eyes could not help but sting.

In the end, he was only a sub-beastman a few years older than Momo.

He was good-looking and had various skills. He should have been cherished and treated well by the tribe, but he had ended up in this state.

“You, do not be sad.”

Momo saw Luo Fei’s eyes turn red and blinked, suddenly feeling at a loss.

“Do not worry. Although I am small, I am still very good at managing life, and”

“Thank you, Momo.”

Luo Fei’s pleasant voice echoed in the cave. He raised his head again, and his beautiful features were touched with undeniable emotion and joy.

“We will definitely live a good life.”

“The people of the Yueshan Tribe do not know at all. You are not some bad omen. You are a truly lucky puppy.”
