Chapter 192

On this side, Zhang Fan and his spouse were still gazing lovingly at each other, while on the other side, Wei Er and Di Er had also finished what they were doing, turned around and walked out of the birthing room.

The Beast God saw that the time was about right, had finished what he needed to do, and didn't want to keep disturbing Zhang Fan's family. But seeing the couple still gazing at each other, the Beast God felt a bit torn.

After a moment's thought, the Beast God lightly coughed a few times, hoping to interrupt Zhang Fan and his spouse.

"Cough! Cough!"

However, after coughing a few times, the Beast God saw no effect, so he had to raise his volume and cough heavily twice.

"Cough! Cough!"

Seeing that Zhang Fan and his spouse had shown no reaction despite his prolonged coughing, the Beast God also became a bit unhappy.

"Hey! You two have had enough, haven't you? Can't you get enough of looking? I'm about to leave, and you're ignoring me! Humph!"

Having said that, the Beast God deliberately turned his back to express his dissatisfaction with Zhang Fan and his spouse.

Zhang Fan, seeing the Beast God's somewhat tsundere demeanor, couldn't help but curl the corner of his mouth and gave a faint smile.

But after laughing, Zhang Fan steadied his emotions, put on an elder‑brother air, furrowed his brows somewhat exaggeratedly, and said:

"Hey! Wu Si, you say why you're so unpopular? I just woke up, and you're already leaving? What's that supposed to mean? Are you looking down on me?"

"Right! Right! Fan Fan, you're absolutely right! But don't get angry—getting angry will harm your health! Be good!"

Ba Ke Er saw that Zhang Fan was a little unhappy, hurried to soothe him, lightly stroking Zhang Fan's back, speaking indignantly, but when he reached the latter part and saw Zhang Fan's expression was off, he quickly changed tack and began to persuade him not to get angry.

The Beast God Wu Si actually had nothing particular to be dissatisfied with; saying he wanted to leave was merely a ploy to draw Zhang Fan and his spouse's attention. But now, just hearing Zhang Fan and Ba Ke Er talk, he could already tell that Zhang Fan, being so clever, must have seen through his intention long ago.

So, he no longer kept up the pretense, turned around decisively, walked to Zhang Fan's side, and said with a fawning expression:

"How dare I! You're the boss, after all—I'm still waiting for you to treat me to a meal! How could I look down on you? Hahaha… You just gave birth, so don't get worked up. But I really do have something to do; if I don't leave now, I'm afraid I'll be late."

Zhang Fan gave the Beast God a doubtful look, his face full of uncertainty, and asked in a skeptical tone: 'Really? You can't even spare time for an extra meal?'

"Yes! I really have something to do—I need to rush back to the Heavenly Realm. Eating will have to wait until next time.' As he spoke, the Beast God gave a solemn smile, his earlier fawning expression vanishing completely, as if it had never existed.

"Alright, I won't stay long—I'm leaving now. See you next time!"

No sooner had his words fallen than the Beast God had already prepared to ascend. Seeing this, Zhang Fan hurriedly called out: 'Wait! Take these things back to eat—I just don't know if you'll like them.'

Hearing Zhang Fan tell him to wait, the Beast God's heart leapt with joy; he turned his head, looking at Zhang Fan with hope. And when he saw Zhang Fan produce food from the Yu pan zhi, his eyes widened and his mouth began to water nonstop.

"Hahaha! Fan Fan really understands me—I love braised pork the most! It smells so amazing! Wow! There's even hot and sour noodle powder and steamed meat with flour! My goodness! This trip was totally worth it! Hahaha…"

Seeing the Beast God's salivating expression, Zhang Fan and Ba Ke Er, the couple, couldn't help but wear a black‑line expression. Zhang Fan rubbed his forehead, steadied his mind, and smiled sincerely: 'Beast God! Please keep your saliva in check—don't let it drip!'

The Beast God rolled his eyes at Zhang Fan's words, wore an indifferent look, waved his hand, and said: 'Hmph! Just relax—quick, quick, quick! Give me the food! I'm in a hurry—you know, this god is very busy!'

Having said that, the Beast God took the food Ba Ke Er handed over, loading it dish by dish into his spatial ring. After packing all the goodies, he left the birthing room with a satisfied expression, flying toward the Heavenly Realm.

From the opened birthing‑room window, Zhang Fan and Ba Ke Er, the couple, silently watched the Beast God depart, warm currents flowing through their hearts; after the warmth faded, only a deep gratitude for the Beast God remained.

With the Beast God's departure, the lives of the Heaven Lion Tribe's people also returned to normal.

After lying on the birthing‑room bed for a few hours, Zhang Fan experienced his first ever breastfeeding!

From the moment he woke up, Zhang Fan realized that the two mounds on his chest were dripping water. As for what that water was, no need to say—even thinking with your toes you'd know it's milk.

In the cradle beside him, the three lion cubs who had been sleeping peacefully gradually woke up. As soon as one woke, he began to cry; the other two, still asleep, were roused by their brother's cries.

To express their displeasure, the two slightly older lion cubs crawled up beside the smallest one and began lightly slapping it with their tiny paws.

Poor little cub, having been hit by his brothers and not knowing why, he cried out even more pitifully and began to stretch out his four tiny paws to fight back.

Ba Ke Er saw the three cubs incessantly crying, felt a bit annoyed, and thought of simply handing them over to his parents to look after.

But just as Ba Ke Er lifted the cradle, preparing to take it outside, Zhang Fan called out to stop him.

"Hey! Ba Ke Er! It's freezing outside—where are you taking the kids? I haven't even had a look at them yet! Bring them over here so I can see!"

Saying this, Zhang Fan waved his hand excitedly at Ba Ke Er. Seeing Zhang Fan's eager gaze fixed on the cradle, Ba Ke Er couldn't bear to refuse, so he nodded and agreed.

As soon as Ba Ke Er brought the cradle to the bedside, Zhang Fan immediately sat up, reached in, and scooped out the three lion cubs who were still fighting nonstop.

What's surprising is that the three cubs, still fighting with their eyes shut, stopped dead in their tracks the moment they smelled Zhang Fan's scent, each becoming obedient and letting him handle them.

Seeing their obedient demeanor, Zhang Fan couldn't stop grinning.

"Ba Ke Er, look! They're so well‑behaved! Hahaha… Lion cubs are really fun! No wonder Le Le always likes to play with Nuoya and Wu Na's lion cubs!"

Ba Ke Er saw Zhang Fan having fun like that, didn't say much, just stood aside, using his arm to shield Zhang Fan, lest he lose balance and drop the lion cubs.

Zhang Fan naturally noticed Ba Ke Er's gesture, felt warmed, and quickly put the lion cubs down.

As soon as Zhang Fan placed the lion cubs on the bed, they couldn't help but sniff the scent and crawl toward him. Seeing this, Zhang Fan also lay down, letting the children crawl all over his body.

Just then, the birthing‑room door was pushed open from outside. Zhang Fan heard the sound and asked Ba Ke Er: 'Ba Ke Er, see who's come.'

Ba Ke Er took a close look and saw it was his Am; he hurriedly whispered this to Zhang Fan, then stood up and greeted Di Er.

"Am, why are you here? Is there something you need?"

Di Er saw Ba Ke Er greeting him, smiled, and replied: 'Is Fan Fan still awake? Oh my! My grandsons are awake too? How adorable!'

By then Di Er had already walked to Zhang Fan's bedside. Seeing this, Zhang Fan hurriedly set down the lion cubs on his body, struggled to sit up, looked at Di Er, and smiled: 'Am, you're here!'

"Yes, I came to see the lion cubs. Oh! Right—Fan Fan, you haven't fed them yet, have you? It seems I've come at a bad time; you should feed the kids first. I'll go check if Le Le is awake."

Having said that, Di Er turned and left the birthing room, thoughtfully closing the door for Zhang Fan and his spouse.

When Zhang Fan heard Di Er tell him to feed the cubs, his cheeks involuntarily reddened, and even after Di Er left, Zhang Fan still wore a deep blush.

He turned his head to look at Ba Ke Er, feeling a bit shy, and said: 'Ba Ke Er, why don't you… go out first? I… I still need to nurse the children.'

At that moment, Ba Ke Er still hadn't quite reacted; he stood there dazed, but his eyes were already fixed on the two mounds on Zhang Fan's chest.

Seeing Ba Ke Er staring straight at his chest, Zhang Fan suppressed the urge to roll his eyes, reached out, and pinched the itchy flesh on Ba Ke Er's lower back hard.

After Zhang Fan's pinch, Ba Ke Er instantly snapped back to attention; his wheat‑toned cheeks flushed red in an instant, his expression turned a bit awkward, and he stammered:

"Um… um… um, Fan Fan, I'm heading out now—hurry up and feed them, don't let yourself get cold!"

Having said that, Ba Ke Er bolted out in a hurry. Zhang Fan couldn't help but chuckle, and after a few laughs he couldn't resist calling out after Ba Ke Er's retreating figure:

"You're leaving—don't forget to close the door for me! Remember to go see if Le Le is awake."

Ba Ke Er heard Zhang Fan's reminder, the foot he had just stepped out with immediately stopped, and he replied: 'Got it! I'll be careful. You watch yourself—I'll be back soon and bring you home.'

After saying that, Ba Ke Er then walked out, closed the door, and headed toward the secondary bedroom of the clan chief's house.

Zhang Fan saw Ba Ke Er had already walked far away, then he withdrew his gaze, which gradually fell on the three lion cubs on the bed.

Regarding the matter of himself having to nurse the children, Zhang Fan felt somewhat reluctant in his heart, yet he could not bear to see his own children, whom he had painfully given birth to, go hungry.

Thus, seeing no one around, Zhang Fan still gathered his thoughts, reached out and picked up one of the lion cubs, slowly placing it on his chest. Then he lifted his clothing and gritted his teeth!

He brought the lion cub to his chest, pinched his nipple, and stuffed it into the cub's mouth.

As soon as the lion cub took what was in his mouth, it followed its bodily instinct and began to suck.

Feeling the strange sensation coming from his chest, Zhang Fan instantly felt a bit embarrassed; fortunately, besides himself, there were only his three crying, hungry children here.

Otherwise, Zhang Fan would surely have found a hole to hide in! For a pure man, before having children, it was naturally the most terrifying when he learned he was pregnant.

However, after giving birth, he only then realized that carrying and giving birth to children, compared to having to nurse them himself, was truly a case of minor skill meeting major skill!

After Zhang Fan quickly fed the three children full, Ba Ke Er then held the now-awake Le Le and came to knock on the door.

When Le Le saw his father holding three lion cubs in his arms, he not only did not cry and fuss like children on Earth do, but even flailed about, wanting to go find his father and younger brothers to play!

One must say, his action scared Ba Ke Er half to death! He hurriedly coaxed him, not letting him go onto the bed.

If Le Le, this big demon king, were to go up there, the lion cubs and Zhang Fan, who had just given birth, would surely suffer.
