You Plan To Kill Me With Meng? - Chapter 48.3
Suddenly, Miantuan seemed to hear some movement, and a bit alarmed, came to the male lion’s heels.
At this moment, they were very close to each other.
The Amu Brothers, who were engaging passionately with the lionesses, seemed to have detected that there is a stray lion entering and leaving their territory.
This is undoubtedly a provocation.
The two male lions immediately made a move. The elder brother, Armstrong, who had a relatively stable temperament, roared angrily while rushing over to take a look.
The roar of a male lion is full of piercing strength, making it deafening, and able to travel over a radius of up to eight kilometers.
Qiao Qixi was not particularly afraid, but he still cautiously took a detour.
A male lion’s patience was limited. It will not show much attentiveness to track him, unless it was a perverted male lion.
When Armstrong arrived at Qiao Qixi’s hunting location, quiet had already restored.
There was not at all any odor or threatening force pertaining to the male lion lingering in the air, therefore, it did not arouse too much of Armstrong’s anger.
But he nevertheless roared a few times in the direction where the wandering lion had left.
Implying a kind of hopeful warning that the other party should not come again next time.
This very powerful male lion began to make rounds at the edge of the territory marking it with his urine, and simultaneously declaring his sovereignty by roaring.
Him not pursuing was undoubtedly good news for Qiao Qixi’s family.
The inside of the den was very quiet. Before Qiao Qixi came back, these four young male lions who had dealings with the Grim Reaper not too long before, hid inside all along and did not dare to come out.
Until movements transmitted from the outside, when the little cubs erected their ears to make out if it was the male lion’s voice. The atmosphere immediately relaxed; it was even a bit lively…..
They, as if children waiting for their mother to return, tentatively walked out of the den, emitting tender sounds from their mouths.
Although it’s very tough, these sounds calling out softened Qiao Qixi’s heart. He put down the prey, and huffing for breath, rested on the ground.
Miantuan fell behind a little on the way but when he returned, all the young male lions looked at him.
This situation made Qiao Qixi feel especially emotional. Perhaps, starting from today, Miantuan would have a different status among his brothers.
After relaxing for a while, Qiao Qixi started eating the meat. He hadn’t eaten enough before and was now very hungry.
The little furry ones have eaten once previously, and although a bit hungry now, they all sat quietly, just watching.
Only Miantuan, under the gaze of his siblings, approached Qiao Qixi’s side and ate the wildebeest’s meat with big bites.
The wildebeest’s meat was even tougher. In order to prevent the little lion from struggling to bite, Qiao Qixi tore off a piece and gave it to him.
This is a reward.
This little one’s commendable performance today made Qiao Qixi change his opinion of him.
With this, he had even more reasons to favor Miantuan.
The white lion never experienced this kind of doting treatment. This piece of meat might pleasantly surprise him.
The atmosphere of the meal is relaxed. The little lions beside finally no longer feel tense.
They started playing around.
Initially, it was only brothers teasing each other, you touch my head, I touch your tail, and later it became a scuffle.
This is a daily game of sub-adult lions.
Qiao Qixi saw them playing happily, and feeling quite appetizing, unintentionally ended up devouring half of the wildebeest.
The little lions, tired from playing, shyly approached the food near the male lion. With the male lion’s tacit approval, the six sub-adult lions gathered around the wildebeest and enjoyed a hearty meal.
This is the final meal for today.
The food consumed this time is a lot, enough for them to slowly digest for more than ten hours.
Neither boasting nor belittling, the food in Qiao Qixi’s family is still pretty good. If fed like this every day, it is estimated that the little lions will grow up very quickly.
But it cannot be denied that the hunting intensity twice a day is too much. Qiao Qixi is so tired now that he was unwilling to even lift his tail.
Ahem, burying the remains, it seems like it can be postponed for a while.
Although he was exhausted, he still has energy to lick the little ones.
The first to suffer is the close at hand white lion. When the male lion beside him forcefully licked him on the face, he suddenly stiffened, and his entire body became rigid.
……seemingly a bit not daring to believe.
A 9-month-old lion, after eating, can already clean its own fur.
Mother rarely licks them anymore.
After all, with so many cubs, the mother lion simply can’t lick all of them.
But Qiao Qixi, acting as a parent for the first time, cherishes this opportunity very much. At the same time, his movements are also very skillful, efficiently licking clean the cheeks and mouth of the Fifth.
Regardless of which kind of animal, licking the fur of the other party is definitely the most intimate and straightforward way of showing goodwill.
Miantuan clearly felt the male lion’s gentleness, perhaps making him feel at a loss and flattered.
The thin and weak little lion squatting steadily lightly lifted his still very slender neck, his initially startled beautiful blue eyes gradually squinting.
Obviously, receiving such caresses is very comfortable, and providing a sense a security; also meaning that he was no longer a homeless stray lion.
When he accepted the comforting and food from this male lion, from then on, the male lion’s place is where home is.
Unless the other party drives him away.
