Time goes back to the afternoon.
After watching Shang Xi's taxi leave, Gu Wen stood there in silence for a long time. Finally, he got into the car with the cub in his arms and returned to Nanfengyuan.
He kept telling himself that dating was Shang Xi's freedom, and so was staying up all night.
During the meal, his mind was in chaos. He couldn't help thinking, what is Shang Xi doing now? Are you dining with that pure human being? Are they very close together?
"Master, where has Nauki gone?" Kuroo asked.
"Yeah, why didn't I come back with you?"
Before Gu Wen could say anything, the cub had already spoken: "My mother is going on a date to live an adult life!"
Okay, he actually doesn't understand what adult nightlife is, but if his mother likes it, it's fine if she wants to go, nothing else matters.
As soon as the cub finished speaking, the hall suddenly became quiet.
What? Make a date?
Adult life?
They looked at each other and then at the head of the family.
No wonder, the head of the family sat there with a cold face when he came back. The terrifying coercion came from him, making them feel uncomfortable and instinctively afraid.
The head of the family really cares, right?
At eight o'clock, the werewolves were playing with the cubs fearfully, and the owner of the house was sitting alone on the sofa, as silent as a sculpture.
At nine o'clock, Gu Wen took the cub back to the room and took a bath. The wolf cub turned into a pure wolf body and swam around in the bathtub. It was a great time. With a flick of its tail, water splashed everywhere. Gu Wen came first. The first time I took the cub to take a bath, I stood by it, looking really embarrassed.
The clothes on his body were very wet, and the culprit was the little wolf cub swimming around in the bathtub.
However, he seemed not to feel it, his thin lips tightened, his eyes stared blankly, and he remained silent.
Shang Bao grabbed the edge of the bathtub with his little paws and stared at his father curiously. He felt that his father seemed to have lost his soul.
"Ouch...Ouch?" The milky howl sounded suspicious.
Dad didn't seem to hear anything and didn't even blink.
Shang Bao opened his mouth, and the wolf cub's fangs were exposed. He raised his voice: "Ouch!!"
Only then did Gu Wen come back to his senses, and his long dark eyes fell on him: "Are you ready?" He took the bath towel, wrapped the wolf cub in it, wiped off the water, and blew it gently with a hair dryer.
The little wolf cub remained comfortably motionless, letting his father blow dry the short hair on his body.
Then, he turned into human form, put on bunny pajamas, drank wolf milk powder, drank cold spring, yawned a little, and was about to sleep.
Gu Wen sat on the chair next to the bed, wanting to watch the cub fall asleep.
The time is already pointing to ten o'clock.
Shang Xi hasn't come back yet!
After the cub fell asleep, Gu Wen didn't know how he left the room filled with her scent.
Downstairs, Cang Ling was drinking again.
Hearing this, Gu went downstairs without saying a word and sat on the edge.
It's almost half past ten. When will Shang Xi come back? Will she come back?
He couldn't maintain his composure and didn't care anymore. The intense restlessness and panic made him shocked and unbelievable.
His illness returned.
All he wants now is to bring Shang Xi back and bring him to a place where he can see her. It seems that only in that way will his illness be cured.
Cang Ling took a sip of wine and suddenly said: "Master, I really envy you, your partner is still alive."
Gu Wen didn't answer him.
Cangling didn't mind either. His thoughts drifted away. Under the paralysis of alcohol, he had hallucinations. The gentle, well-educated lady from a large family appeared in front of him again. She turned her eyes to look at him and softly called his name: Cangling.
A smile appeared in Cang Ling's eyes and he hummed.
However, the corners of the lips could not be bent no matter what, and even pressed downwards, which was a sad arc.
It hurt so much that he couldn't even smile at her.
Finally, he gave a smile that was sadder than crying.
"Master, they are pure human beings. They are really fragile. They have short lifespans, poor resistance, love to get sick, cannot jump and climb, and do not have sharp teeth or claws. They will be injured even if they bump casually."
He said and looked at Gu Wen: "If you don't pay attention, they will lose their lives. Sometimes, they are still smiling at you one second, and they will lose her forever the next second."
Gu Wen's pupils shrank, and his heart seemed to be grasped by a pair of invisible hands.
"Most of us werewolves will never meet a beloved partner in our lives. If we miss it, it will be worse than death."
Gu Wen closed his eyes deeply.
The river appeared in front of him again.
He jumped resolutely.
The black rabbit fell in love with the white rabbit.
He was crazy and panicked. He couldn't control anything. He just wanted to get rid of the yellow rabbit and be with the white rabbit.
The night wind blows, the time immediately points to eleven o'clock, and the city's nightlife begins.
The tall werewolf was outside the gate of Nanfeng Garden. He closed his eyes and let go of his sense of hearing. In an instant, a deafening and sharp sound came. He frowned, and his forehead was soon covered with cold sweat. He was in unimaginable confusion mixed with pain. Among the mixed sounds, he caught a familiar voice.
"Eat it...um, is it delicious?"
"Don't cry, I'll give you my phone too."
Gu Wen thought for a moment that he had heard wrong.
As his car drove through the streets, the woman's voice became clearer and clearer.
"Give... a wine glass, it's crunchy."
"Isn't it delicious? Do you want to eat the popcorn?"
"..."
Gu Wen frowned, and the car slowly stopped in front of a bar. He stopped listening. It was too noisy around him, and he looked a little pale.
By smelling the smell, he could find which box Shang Xi was occupying. However, he came uninvited and he was afraid that Shang Xi would be angry...
He had to take out his cell phone and make a call.
Sister Dao listened to the voice on the phone and combined with the meaning of the words, she guessed it at once.
"Are you Xiao Shangbao's cheap father?"
The voice over there was instantly alert and cold: "Who are you?"
"Dao Luo, known as Sister Dao, is Shang Xi's friend and the aunt of little Shang Bao. Do you understand? Mr. Gu." Sister Dao's last words were gritted in tone.
There was silence on the phone for a second, and when he spoke again, his voice actually softened a bit: "Hello, I am Shang Shu's father, Gu Wen."
"Who in Qingcheng doesn't know Mr. Gu? I didn't expect that you would come to pick us up in person for our funeral?"
Gu Wen didn't understand the strangeness in these words and answered seriously: "It's very late. As the cub's father, I will take her back."
Sister Dao sneered: "Then I dare to ask Mr. Gu, why haven't I seen you appear as the cub's father before?"
Only then did Gu Wen realize that Shang Xi's friends were questioning him about the past few years of his absence. He was being interrogated by Shang Xi and her friends.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Shang Xi's voice on the phone, "It's time for me to go home, I'm going to cry."
Sister Dao smiled softly and said: "There is a call from [Lone Wolf] here, saying that he will come to pick you up."
Then, Gu Wen heard Shang Xi's voice: "Huh? Lone wolf? Who knows what this thing is? Let him leave quickly."
The lone wolf who wants to be driven away:...
He pursed his lips.
