Chapter 678: Inviting the Wolf into the House Again

He did not dawdle, but his speed was not as fast as Sheng Hanyu's.

Sheng Hanyu helped his wife up the tree first, then pulled A Ning up.

The three of them moved very quickly.

But once they were seated securely, they discovered the wolf pack was even faster.

Hundreds of wolves, thick and dense.

They sat in a circle under the tree, looking up at the three of them!

"Awoo—"

The alpha wolf was still white, but it was not the female wolf from last time; it was an adult male wolf.

It was injured, its lower abdomen was bleeding, and fresh blood stained a small patch of its snow-white fur.

The male wolf's brow and eyes were strikingly similar to Xiaobai's, only lacking Xiaobai's cute appearance and possessing much more majesty.

"Hanyu Ge, what should we do?" Jian Yining asked with a sobbing tone; he regretted it.

"I should have listened to you. We shouldn't have kept Xiaobai; we were completely deceived by its cute appearance, this little liar..." Since childhood, Jian Fu had taught Jian Yining one principle: one must not be tripped by the same stone twice!

But he always made the same mistake, including this time.

Shi Youxuan also felt guilty; leaving Xiaobai behind was not Jian Yining's fault alone, and she was the primary factor: "It's not your fault, if anyone is to blame, it's me. I thought of Xiaobai too simply."

The two of them blamed themselves.

They vied to take responsibility.

Sheng Hanyu did not blame them for a single word; he had been observing the wolf pack, feeling that this time was different from the last.

The wolf pack showed no signs of preparing to attack them; they seemed to be waiting for someone—no, waiting for a wolf!

From the distance, a female wolf walked over unhurriedly—it was that white wolf that had attacked them!

But this time, there was no ferocity in its eyes.

And it was carrying someone on its back—Xiaobai.

Xiaobai rode on the female wolf's back, came under the tree, and stood with the male wolf!

This must be a family of three.

Xiaobai barked at the tree: "Woof, woof, woof..."

Shi Youxuan:...

That's right, for the past few days, she had been teaching Xiaobai to bark like a dog, but it had never made a sound, and she had been ruthlessly mocked by Sheng Hanyu and Jian Yining for it.

Now it had barked.

It learned it very well, exactly the same as the sound Shi Youxuan had made.

Xiaobai seemed to be asking her to come down.

Shi Youxuan dared not.

But she could be certain that Xiaobai understood human speech, so she decided to try.

Shi Youxuan shouted to Xiaobai: "Xiaobai, I won't charge you for room and board for the food you've been mooching off us these past few days. Now that your parents have come for you, you should go home. Don't surround the tree; it's quite scary..."

"The three of us have little meat and many bones; we won't be enough to eat."

Xiaobai barked a few times at its parents.

Then the male wolf issued a command, and the pack began to retreat; in a moment, they had run off without a trace.

But Xiaobai's family of three was still there.

It wouldn't do for them to stay; they didn't know the combat power of that male wolf, but they had already experienced the combat power of the female wolf.

It was exceptionally fierce, agile, and incredibly cunning.

Three people in the tree, three wolves under the tree; human eyes stared at wolf eyes, and the tension was high.

Suddenly, Jian Yining said: "Hanyu Ge, Xuanxuan, look at that, what is it?"

Following the direction he pointed, the two of them discovered several backpacks in the grass not far away... no, to be precise, fragments of backpacks!

It was their backpacks; had the white wolf sent them back?

Xiaobai was human-like; seeing the three of them looking toward the grass, it immediately ran over and brought the fragments back in its mouth.

One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

Neatly lined up in a row.

"Woof, woof, woof—"

Xiaobai barked at the tree.

It meant: come down, the previous matter was truly a misunderstanding, my parents have already returned the backpacks, so don't keep dwelling on the past.

Xiaobai acted cute and charming.

Sheng Hanyu said to the two: "A Ning, Xuanxuan, you two stay here and don't move; I'll go down and take a look."

"No." Shi Youxuan objected.

She grabbed her husband's arm, looking pitiful: "Hanyu, you cannot go down. We can trust Xiaobai, but I don't trust its parents."

Although there was no murderous look in the female wolf's eyes, what if it was just a disguise?

Nianyin had said the white wolf had high intelligence; Shi Youxuan was worried her husband would be in danger and didn't want him to go down.

Sheng Hanyu pointed at the male wolf and said to his wife: "Xuanxuan, look, that male wolf is injured; I suspect it is asking us for help."

Shi Youxuan:...

She didn't know what was wrong with her husband either.

Xiaobai is so cute, yet he either wants to eat it or scare it; in any case, he hasn't given Xiaobai a pleasant look these past few days.

That male wolf is fierce and cold, looking dangerous just by the sight of it.

Yet he wants to go up close to see if it is injured?

"No, I just won't let you go, it's too dangerous." With persuasion ineffective, Shi Youxuan simply wrapped her arms around her husband's waist, hugging him tightly, using her actions to tell him that she did not allow it!

"Hanyu Ge, you stay with Xuanxuan, I'll go take a look."

Jian Yining said this as he had already gone down.

Neither of them expected it, and of course, they didn't have time to stop him.

Jian Yining is timid; he is even afraid of dogs in daily life.

That he could take the initiative to approach the male wolf was to leave the danger to himself and the safety to Sheng Hanyu.

"A Ning, come back!"

Shi Youxuan shouted at him, and he turned his head to smile, his smile bright yet tinged with fear: "Xuanxuan, if I get eaten, please help Wan'er raise my daughters to adulthood, don't let them be bullied."

"I don't care, you hurry up and come back up!"

It was too late.

Jian Yining grabbed the vine and slid to the bottom in a few swift motions, and used his Dagger to cut the vine.

He clenched his fists tightly and walked toward the male wolf step by step...

His legs felt as if they were filled with lead and weighed a thousand pounds; every step forward was extremely difficult!

Sweat dripped continuously down his cheeks; he was too nervous.

The male wolf and the female wolf stared at Jian Yining.

He felt that they could launch an attack on him at any moment and then instantly tear him apart and devour him.

"Don't eat me, don't eat me, I have no, no malicious intent..."

Jian Yining saw the wound on the male wolf's body; the wound looked very deep, and fresh blood was dripping down its fur.

But it shouldn't have damaged any internal organs, otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to hold on for so long.

He tentatively stroked the male wolf's injured area, explaining to them as he touched it: "I am a doctor, you are injured and need treatment; now I need to check your wound, you must ensure my safety..."

Sheng Hanyu was watching from the tree, completely speechless.

A Ning had been a chatterbox since he was a child.

He was familiar with everyone he met, and he was well-liked.

As long as he didn't particularly dislike someone, he could quickly get along with them.

He knew that Jian Yining had strong social skills.

But what he didn't know was—this guy could even chat with wolves!

And they were chatting quite well.

The female wolf seemed to see that Jian Yining was afraid of it, so it took the initiative to walk further away, looking around vigilantly and taking on the duty of a guard.

The male wolf withdrew the ferocity in its eyes—it simply closed its eyes.

It lay there obediently, letting Jian Yining examine the wound.

Xiaobai kept darting back and forth, rubbing its head against Jian Yining's leg in a fawning manner; its milky, cute appearance indeed eased Jian Yining's nervous mood quite a bit.

This whole family was sensible.

He looked carefully, and it was okay.

The wound was not very large, but the surrounding area had already festered and become infected.

There seemed to be something inside.

Jian Yining had studied medicine when he was in school; although he wasn't very professional, it should be enough to act as a veterinarian.

He carried a Dagger with him, which could be used as a scalpel.

Before performing the surgery, he still needed to make some preparations.

Jian Yining rambled on: "Xiaobai's dad, there seems to be a bullet in your body; I'm going to take it out for you. Only when the bullet is taken out can your body heal quickly. However, the process of taking the bullet out will be very painful. I don't have any anesthesia or hemostatic medicine right now, so you'll just have to endure it; you absolutely must not bite me..."
