Chapter 15
Chapter 15
At the huge dining table, a group of wolfmen who had eaten their fill were watching the pup eat breakfast.
The little baby's chubby cheeks were puffed out, and his little hands were holding a little meat bun. He would take a bite, then drink some milk. He was eating with great delight.
Shang Xi sat next to her son and gently said, "Eat slower."
Gu Wen also watched the little one closely. As he watched, the corners of his lips curled up slightly. This was his pup.
He had a pup now.
His grandmother far away in Snow Mountain and his wolf parents didn't know yet.
He didn't like pure humans or Shang Xi, but that had nothing to do with the pup.
A parent's problems should never affect the pup, because pups are always the most innocent since they don't get to decide on their own birth.
He would treat the pup very well and give him everything he should have.
Baby Shang drank the last bit of milk, licked the corners of his lips, and swayed his little tail. Then his whole body was picked up by a pair of big hands.
"Let's go, to school," Gu Wen said, holding the pup and stroking his hair, pressing down the stubborn cowlick on the little one's head.
He had wanted to smooth it down for a while.
But after he pressed it down, the cowlick stubbornly popped back up again.
Gu Wen pursed his lips and tried to press down the cowlick again, but as soon as he let go, it popped up again.
He snorted, and didn't bother with it anymore.
He strode forward with large steps.
Shang Xi followed behind, watching as her son's small face was all serious, not saying a word in Gu Wen's arms. His little mouth was pursed, but his little hands gripped Gu Wen's clothing tightly.
He clearly liked being held by his dad.
Yet he put on that little expression.
Shang Xi laughed to herself.
When she got into the car that had a child's car seat, Gu Wen was lowering his gaze and carefully buckling the safety belt for Baby Shang. With a click, it was fastened.
Then, he lowered his gaze and looked at the pup's wolf ears for a bit, saying, "Take three deep breaths and pull your ears back in."
Baby Shang blinked his big eyes, reached up with his chubby hand to touch his little ears, and said, "Oh!" Then he did as told and pulled them back in.
"Practice more at home," Gu Wen said.
Baby Shang nodded and said, "Oh!"
Gu Wen looked down at him intently. "Howl for me. Let me hear it."
Baby Shang grasped the edge of his clothes tightly and opened his mouth. "Awooo—"
A milky, tender howl.
"Remember, howl three times in a row. That's the signal for help."
"For our Wolf clan, normal wolves can hear howls within two hundred kilometers."
That night, he had heard the pup's cries and came to find him. He was one of the few wolves in the pack who could hear sounds within three hundred kilometers.
"How many kilometers???" Shang Xi finally couldn't help but ask aloud.
Gu Wen was teaching his son, and she was also curiously listening.
When she heard this, her whole body was shocked.
"I remember wolves can hear sounds around ten kilometers or so? You guys are too..."
Gu Wen glanced at her lightly. "Don't compare us to those lowly, foolish beasts."
"I see," Shang Xi thought to herself, you guys are impressive...
And so, in continued astonishment, she arrived at the kindergarten.
The two of them got out of the car and said some things to the little one. After they watched the teacher take him into school and could no longer see his small figure, they got back in the car.
In the car, it was just the two of them alone together again.
Gu Wen thought that if this woman tried to get close to him again, he would make things clear.
But what happened was...
Shang Xi kept her head down the whole ride playing on her phone. She didn't even lift her head once or look at him, and didn't say a single word, as if he didn't exist.
Only when getting out of the car did she hurriedly say, "Goodbye, Mr. Gu." She pulled open the door, stepped out in high heels, and walked to the store without looking back.
Gu Wen: ......
Could this woman actually read minds?
Did she know what he was thinking?
So she hid her intentions of getting close for now?
