"Who lied to you, Yao'er?"
Hu Jiaojiao jumped off the ground, walked behind the crying Long Yao, and asked with amusement.
When the others saw her coming, they couldn't suppress their joy on their faces. Thinking that Long Yao was sad, they deliberately held back their laughter and watched him from the side.
"Of course it was my stinky third brother who lied to me. He hid from me that mom was in trouble and even lied to me that mom would come to pick me up. Third brother is the worst..." Long Yao said angrily without even thinking.
If you hide everything from him, he will be sad.
"Oh? What happened to me? How come I didn't know?" Hu Jiaojiao asked deliberately.
"Mother..." Long Yao was about to answer, but suddenly found that he seemed to know nothing. He was stunned for a moment, and then he felt that the voice was very familiar.
He turned his head slowly in confusion, and met a pair of gentle eyes looking at him with a smile.
"Mother!"
Long Yao's pupils dilated and he cried out in surprise.
"Woo woo, mother, you really came to pick up Xiaowu! Third brother didn't lie to me..."
He immediately ran towards Hu Jiaojiao on his short legs, closed his eyes, and wanted to burst into tears and tell her about his suffering.
As soon as Long Mo transformed into a human form, he saw Long Yao running towards him. If you didn't know, you would think that he was going to knock Hu Jiaojiao away. So he walked forward with a cold face and stood between the two of them.
Long Yao hugged his thighs without looking up. He rubbed his tears and snot on his legs and hummed with a pursed mouth.
"Mother, Xiaowu misses you so much..."
Long Mo looked at the sticky snot on his legs, which had even turned into threads. Long Yao wiped it with the back of his hand and rubbed it on his legs.
"… "
Long Mo's temples throbbed twice, thinking that the little guy must have suffered a lot outside, and resisting the urge to spank him, he stretched out his big hand and lifted Long Yao up by the back of his neck.
Like a kitten, he was carried in front of Hu Jiaojiao.
Long Yao suddenly lifted his feet into the air, opened his eyes, and saw his mother in front of him with a bright smile. Then he realized that he had hugged the wrong person. He grinned naively and reached out to hold Hu Jiaojiao's hand.
"Mother~"
Hu Jiaojiao put her hands under her armpits, picked up the little guy and put him on the ground.
“Who bullied you? Why are you crying like a little cat…” Hu Jiaojiao took out a clean animal skin from her arms, squatted down, and helped wipe the snot and tears from his face with a funny look.
Before Long Yao could answer, Long Zhong, Hu Qingyuan and Hu Jing all looked at Ying Yuan not far away.
"He bullied Xiaowu!" the three said in unison.
Ying Yuan: “…” I’ve never seen them so united and in harmony before.
Long Mo remained calm as he looked at the sobbing Long Yao, frowned and said coldly:
"Only weak and useless males will cry. Long Yao, can you be a little more capable?"
Long Yao took a breath and immediately choked. He looked at Long Mo aggrievedly and tried hard not to cry.
Daddy is right, he can't be so useless.
He will become stronger in the future and protect his mother!
Hu Jiaojiao frowned, but did not interrupt Long Mo's words. She just patted Long Yao's back gently and comforted him softly:
"Yao'er, Daddy is just concerned about you, not mean to you."
She and Long Mo both have their own ways of educating Zaizai. If she keeps interrupting Long Mo in front of Zaizai, he will have no status in Zaizai's heart.
In the future, Zizi will easily disregard his words.
"Mom, Xiaowu is not a useless beast. From now on, Xiaowu will protect you." Long Yao clenched his pink and white hands into fists. His little face looked very serious. He was not at all discouraged by Long Mo.
"Okay, from now on, mother will rely on Xiaowu for protection." Hu Jiaojiao showed a gentle look in her eyes and rubbed his head.
After saying that, she glanced at Ying Yuan standing beside her, and her eyes, which had just been gentle as water, now had a bit more sharpness.
Hu Jiaojiao was about to ask Ying Yuan for an explanation when Long Mo suddenly stretched out his long legs and walked towards Ying Yuan.
"The clan leader has something for me to tell you. Let's talk over there."
Ying Yuan had a serious face, seemed to understand something, nodded, and took the lead to walk into the forest in the distance.
Long Mo turned around and looked at Hu Jiaojiao, "Jiaojiao, I'll be back soon."
"Yeah." Hu Jiaojiao responded, thinking that the patriarch really asked him to convey important words to Ying Yuan, and did not think much about it.
As soon as the two left, the atmosphere suddenly became much more relaxed.
Hu Jiaojiao looked at Long Zhong who was standing aside and didn't dare to approach, smiled, pulled him in front of her, and gently wiped his red forehead with her fingers.
"Why is your head red?" she asked with concern.
"It's okay." Long Zhong tilted his head awkwardly and covered his forehead with his hair, not wanting her to worry about him.
Seeing Hu Jiaojiao's hand stopped in the air, he was afraid that she would misunderstand, so he stammered:
"Mother... I hope you're okay."
Hu Jiaojiao felt warm in her heart. Even Long Zhong, who hated her the most, cared about her. Her nose felt sore and the longing for her after being separated for so many days suddenly surged up. She hugged the two cubs in her arms.
"Of course mother is fine. Wait for mother to take you back. No orcs will dare to bully us anymore."
Hu Qingyuan and Hu Jing were tactful enough not to interrupt the reunion of the mother and her two children.
…
Ying Yuan and Long Mo came to a deserted forest.
"What did the clan leader ask you to say...hiss!"
He turned around and was about to ask Long Mo when suddenly a fist came towards him and hit him hard on the nose. He heard a cracking sound, as if his nose was broken.
"Long Mo, why are you crazy again!" Ying Yuan covered his nose, blood quickly seeped out through his fingers. He gritted his teeth. This was the third time he was beaten today.
Even the best temper will eventually be worn out.
Without saying a word, Long Mo continued to punch Ying Yuan in the face with his fists, each punch hitting the flesh.
At this moment Ying Yuan also realized that the clan leader had no words for him to bring to him, and Long Mo came here specifically to beat him up for Long Yao.
"He who bullied my kid, I will help him get back at him." Long Mo snorted coldly and changed the route of his attack, aiming at his private parts.
Otherwise, when you return, you might arouse suspicion.
He is the kind of person who doesn't like to say nice things. If something happens, taking action is quicker than anything else.
"Okay, if you want to fight, I'll accompany you!" Ying Yuan was so angry that he had no choice but to go ahead.
I don’t know if it’s because of the injuries I suffered today, but when facing Long Mo again, I felt a little powerless. I could only defend myself and had no power to fight back at all.
…
Thunder River Tribe.
Long Linger found that this orc didn't seem to dare to make things difficult for her. Except for not being able to go out, he almost granted her every request.
So I tried every possible way to persuade him:
"I want to see Yin Cang. If you let me see Yin Cang, I will stop arguing. Otherwise, I will not eat or drink today and I will starve to death here!"
The fox orcs received Hu Lin's orders to take good care of Long Ling'er and they dared not let her go without food and water.
After much persuasion, the fox orc reluctantly nodded:
"Okay, I'll take you to see him, but you can't run around, little leader, or he will punish me."
When Long Linger heard this, she immediately smiled and nodded quickly to promise, "Okay, I definitely won't run around!"
