Chapter 107 Pleading for the Leopard
It felt like seeing the child the Lu family had adopted.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and Tian Tian realized that her overbearing tone had aroused the suspicion of the Gu family.
"Mom, I'm so scared!"
With a call, Ruolan's attention was instantly diverted.
"It's alright, it's alright. The leopard is very well-behaved; she probably just wanted to play with you," Ruolan explained.
Upon hearing this, the leopard snorted, "Awooo~ Awooo~"
Mengmeng also spoke up to explain for the leopard: "Sister, the leopard really doesn't mean to hurt you. It just wants to communicate with you."
The so-called communication was actually meant to teach her a lesson.
"But it looks too ferocious, Mom. I'm scared. I don't want to see it," Sweetie said, expressing her fear.
In the future, she would often come out at night to meet with Daoist Ziyang in private. With such a large and ferocious leopard in the courtyard, it was inevitable that it would make noises that would expose her plans.
Her meaning was so clear that everyone present understood what she meant.
The leopard was to be adopted by Mengmeng and placed in the Gu family's backyard. During this time, the leopard acted like a little kitten, keeping everyone in the Gu family company. Ruolan, in particular, often played with the leopard in the backyard and had long since become like a parent to it.
Now that they're saying they have to send it away, Ruolan is reluctant to part with it.
"Baby, the leopard is very friendly. Don't believe me? Touch it. Its fur is so soft and comfortable." Ruolan held Tiantian's hand and stroked the leopard.
Before it was even touched, Sweetie started shouting exaggeratedly.
"I'm scared, I don't want to!"
Ruolan's hand was forcefully flung away, and Tiantian in her arms was pulled away along with her.
The leopard looked at Mengmeng with a wronged expression, its head drooping beside Mengmeng's legs.
“Mom, since she’s scared, don’t let her stay in the back garden,” Gu Shiyu said.
He didn't speak up for Tian Tian, but because he didn't want Meng Meng to be sad because of the leopard.
The leopard only ate the vegetables and fruits Mengmeng grew on its first day at home and didn't harm anyone. So why can't this large Gu family tolerate even a leopard after she arrives?
Sweetie glanced at the leopard, who was pitifully whining to Mengmeng, then looked at Mengmeng again, and continued to complain, "Mommy, I'm really scared. I don't want to stay here anymore because I have to be on guard against the leopard every day."
“It’s fine if he doesn’t want to live here.” Gu Shiche spoke up after a long time. “Dad, the apartment in Yunji is still empty. Find someone to clean it up and arrange for two nannies to go over and take care of him.”
A gathering?
Sweetie racked her brains, trying to recall the location of that place. It took three or four hours to drive from the Gu residence to Yunji.
It's too far; if she goes there, it's as if she'll have no further contact with the Gu family.
"Mom, do you really want me to live over there?" Sweetie asked, her eyes filled with tears.
Ruolan couldn't bear to let her child, who had just returned, live so far away. But seeing the leopard at Mengmeng's feet, she couldn't bear to send the leopard away and hurt Mengmeng's feelings.
Caught in a dilemma, Gu Shiyu spoke up, "You've just returned home, so tone it down a bit. Don't take advantage of your mother's favor to do whatever you want at home without considering other people's feelings."
Sweetie frowned as she looked at Gu Shiyu.
It was him who sent her to be eaten by wolves. And now it's him again, giving her a ruthless warning.
Before, she had no one to support her, so he could hurt her without restraint. But things are different now; she doesn't believe Ruolan would truly bear to see her suffer.
Sweetie looked timid and cautiously glanced back at Ruolan.
"Shi Yu!" Ruolan said sternly, "You're the older brother, how can you talk to your sister like that? Apologize right now!"
Give it to a sister of unknown origin who only talks about her? Gu Shiyu utterly disdainful.
He glanced at Gu Yinshen, his attitude returning to normal, "Dad, it's getting late, and it's getting windy. I'll take Mengmeng back to rest first. You and Mom should also go back and rest as soon as possible."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Gu Shiche chimed in, "I'm going back too."
"So cute~"
The leopard barked nearby.
If she leaves, no one will be able to protect it. It has food and water at home and doesn't want to go back to the back mountains to live a life where it doesn't know when to eat.
Mengmeng let go of Gu Shiyu's hand and, for the sake of the leopard, nervously said to Ruolan, "Daddy, Mommy, if my sister is afraid of the leopard, she can stay in my room. Can we not send it away?"
This was the first time Mengmeng had asked them for anything since arriving at the Gu family. Gu Yinshen immediately agreed, "Don't worry, Mengmeng, Daddy won't send the leopard away."
"Really?" Mengmeng asked excitedly.
"Of course." Gu Yinshen affectionately rubbed her cheek. "Daddy will support whatever our Mengmeng likes."
As soon as she finished speaking, Tian Tian next to her sniffled, looking aggrieved.
If we continue, the atmosphere will become tense again.
"Let's go." Gu Shiyu bent down and picked up the leopard from the ground.
A leopard was so heavy that he had some difficulty carrying it.
"Brother, Mengmeng will help you."
"No need, I won't press on you and hurt you."
Mengmeng and Gu Shiyu talked as they led the leopard away from the back garden. Gu Shiche, also carrying Xiao Hei in his arms, left the back garden as well.
Gu Yinshen also wanted to leave, but he felt both heartache and helplessness as he watched Ruolan struggling to coax Tiantian.
"The leopard has been taken away too, there's no need to be afraid anymore, go back and rest first," Gu Yinshen said coldly.
Ruolan covered her mouth and yawned. She hadn't been able to rest all day and was so sleepy that she could barely keep her eyes open.
Seeing that Ruolan remained silent, Tian Tian dared not cause any more trouble.
"Mom, I'm sleepy." Tian Tian hugged Ruolan's arm.
Upon hearing these words, Ruolan's previously worried face immediately broke into a smile.
"Let's go back and rest, let's go back and rest." Ruolan picked up Tiantian and walked towards the house.
In Mengmeng's room, the leopard excitedly paced around. Little White sat slumped on the bed, looking unhappy.
"Mengmeng, how did it get into your room?" Xiaobai asked, puzzled.
"Little White, my sister is afraid of leopards and wants Mom and Dad to send them away."
"Fear?"
Xiao Bai glanced at the leopard. With its silly appearance, like a dumb cat, how could anyone be afraid of it!
Hearing Mengmeng and Xiaobai talking about it, the leopard immediately came to the bedside, looking aggrieved. It plopped down on the floor, taking up most of the space. "I didn't mean to hurt her, I just wanted to teach her a lesson and scare her. Who told her to bully Mengmeng!"
The leopard didn't think it had done anything wrong; instead, it became proud.
"You silly leopard!" Little White mocked, "You're having a good time, but Mengmeng will have to bear the consequences for you."
Gu Jiaxin's daughter, who had just returned home, was already hostile towards Mengmeng, and now they had a grudge even though they didn't have one.
