Song Yunzhi scratched his cheek and chuckled softly, "Just teasing you, Erhuang. You're so cute, how could your sister bear to skimp on your food?"

"Meow~" He looked at her gratefully, and couldn't help but stretch out his paws and climb onto her shoulder, tilting his head to rub against her cheek.

"Alright, let's go eat." The fluffy creature rubbed against her face, and Song Yunzhi patted his bottom with a smile.

The little tiger flicked its tail, loosened its paws, slid down her soft clothes, and turned to run off to eat.

Song Yunzhi looked at him quietly; he was so cute with his chubby face.

tiger?

Her gaze paused for a moment, then she looked at Xie Xuan again, her face tightening slightly.

Yes, compared to an adult, emaciated orange cat, he's more like a young tiger cub.

If you look closely, you can see the black downy fur under his orange fur, and his tail is not as fluffy as a kitten's.

I had wondered about it before, but I didn't think about it in detail. I was too busy correcting his cries. Now I realize that Erhuang's behavior is quite obvious.

"Meow~"

After Xie Xuan finished eating, he came over and saw that she was staring at him. He thought she wanted to hug him, so he took the initiative to snuggle into her arms.

Song Yunzhi's heart was pounding a little fast as she slowly placed her fingers on his furry back.

The more I look at it, the more it looks like a little tiger.

She took a deep breath and accidentally plucked a tuft of downy feathers.

The slight stinging pain made Xie Xuan turn his head to look at her. Meeting the woman's tense gaze, he obediently rubbed his palm against hers before lying back down and continuing to purr.

It doesn't hurt, let her pluck it as she pleases, as long as it doesn't leave her bald. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if her younger siblings saw it.

Song Yunzhi pursed her lips. Was this considered pulling the tiger's hair out of its own head?

But does this guy know he's a tiger?

"Erhuang, why were you alone in the bushes that day? Where was your mother?" she asked tentatively.

The little tiger's ears twitched, and it instantly felt its eyes sting.

His mother is gone, and his father is gone too. He misses his parents terribly.

Seeing that he didn't react, Song Yunzhi slowly turned him over and was stunned when she met his teary eyes.

"Meow..."

Xie Xuan couldn't help but cry, and could only meow so as not to reveal that he was a tiger.

Song Yunzhi was at a loss for what to do. "You... don't cry."

She asked him casually, and he suddenly started crying.

"Alright, alright, it was your fault, Erhuang, don't cry. I'll get you some jerky, okay?" Song Yunzhi coaxed softly.

Upon seeing a cub, the fear I felt earlier vanished instantly.

He's still young, how much of a tiger can he be? He's just a poor little thing.

Xie Xuan reached out and hooked his claws around her sleeve, swallowed hard without any self-control, and his teary eyes brightened.

Dried meat?

It sounds delicious.

Seeing that he had stopped crying, Song Yunzhi called out, "Xiaoman."

"Miss, the servant is here."

"Bring some of the dried meat that was dried yesterday."

"Yes."

Xie Xuan happily straightened his limbs and looked at Xiao Man who was walking towards him with expectant eyes.

Xiaoman patted his head twice, and he turned around unhappily and snuggled back into Song Yunzhi's arms.

"Erhuang, why are you ignoring me after I touched you a couple of times? I have some dried meat here~" Xiaoman teased him on purpose.

Xie Xuan drooped his ears, trying hard not to listen.

It wasn't that he didn't like being patted on the head, but Xiaoman always patted him so hard that his head was buzzing.

She is not gentle at all.

My older sister is gentle.

Xie Xuan meowed twice, unable to resist sniffing the woman's scent.

It smells nice, which is what tigers like.

Song Yunzhi handed him some dried meat to eat, saying, "Erhuang, Xiaoman likes you a lot, you can't ignore her."

"Meow~" Xie Xuan turned around and patted Xiaoman's hand perfunctorily with his paw.

"Erhuang is so good." Xiaoman couldn't help but pat him twice more.

The little tiger let out a low growl, and Song Yunzhi hugged him tightly, hooking his chin with her fingers and tilting his head back to meet his round, clear eyes. She said in a serious tone, "You are a kitten."

"Meow?"

"Okay, be good." Song Yunzhi breathed a sigh of relief, watching the little tiger hugging the jerky with both paws, rolling over and slowly munching on its belly, and couldn't help but reach out and touch it.

Her father didn't like keeping cats to begin with, and if he knew she was keeping a tiger, he would probably be even more opposed.

But after spending these past few days together, she felt a little reluctant to part with Erhuang.

Song Yunzhi was a little worried and played with the little tiger's tail.

Xie Xuan gnawed at it for a while, but found it too tough to chew, so he hid the jerky in his den.

"Meow~" He nuzzled over with his head on the fur ball, his obedient gaze fixed on Song Yunzhi, as if inviting her to play together.

Song Yunzhi snapped out of her daze, turned around, and took out the newly made cat toy.

"Meow!" The little tiger's eyes widened, and it couldn't help but stretch out its paws and pounce.

The fluffy orange color danced in the field of vision and unknowingly rushed into Song Yunzhi's arms.

The woman gently hugged him, letting his paws hook onto a feathered cat toy.

"You've gotten fatter." Song Yunzhi leaned down and kissed him on the head. "Erhuang is so cute."

Xie Xuan's ears twitched slightly, and he raised his paw to hug her neck, "Meow."

If she knew he was a ferocious tiger, she wouldn't have called him cute.

If only he never grew up, he could stay her little cat forever.

Xie Xuan thought silently, looking at his own vulnerable tiger claws, and immediately shook his head.

No, if I don't grow up, I won't be able to catch prey, and my younger siblings will starve to death.

Xie Xuan continued to deliver food at noon and in the evening as usual, so the two little tigers no longer had to go hungry.

He probably ate more than them, so he seemed to be a size bigger than them.

"Big brother, the meat smells so good." The second brother tilted his head and nuzzled against his neck, drooling and dreaming.

Xie Xuan raised his paw and patted his head, then gently hugged the two tiger cubs.

The three tiger cubs slept close together, their snores filling the large tiger den.

Song Yunzhi noticed that Erhuang had been sneaking out at a fixed time every day for the past few days, and he would stay there for a long time.

Especially at night, he would stay out all night and often didn't return until dawn.

No wonder he always looks so lazy and like he hasn't had enough sleep every morning; he doesn't sleep in his bed at all at night.

He's still a little tiger cub. If he doesn't sleep well, he'll definitely not grow up properly.

After thinking for a long time, Song Yunzhi took advantage of the bright sunshine during the day to give him another bath.

"Ouch?"

Xie Xuan was pulled out of the cat's bed in his sleep, looking completely bewildered with his round eyes staring blankly at her.

Song Yunzhi gently patted his head, "Erhuang, that's not how kittens meow."

"Meow?"

"Yes, you can't shout randomly, you know? It'll scare people," she gently reminded him.

Xie Xuan nodded very seriously, "Meow!"

He knew all of this, but sometimes he would accidentally yell it out.
