Seven Cubs, Seven Fathers, Zero Days Off novel Chapter 76

Chapter 76: Chapter 76: Devouring God Flower

Bai Chaosi brought Shen Yue back to the bamboo house.

She rushed into the room, worried, and saw the seven little cubs sleeping soundly in a neat row.

At that moment, her restless heart could finally be at ease.

Earlier, when she saw Little Qi asleep in that man’s arms, she had suspected he might be Little Qi’s Father due to their identical hair color.

But she had only ever seen him in a dream, where he repeatedly called her "baby."

She didn’t know him or his character, so she was extremely worried for Little Qi’s safety and feared he would be taken away.

After all, as the Medical Saint, she had seen too much of humanity’s dark side. Most of the little girls who were molested and physically harmed were hurt by the people closest to them.

That was why she was so tense and worried about Little Qi’s well-being.

Seeing her lying here safe and sound, she was instantly relieved.

Exhausted, she sat beside them, gazing at their sweet, sleeping faces with a loving and possessive tenderness.

She hadn’t seen them for an entire day. Only she knew how much she had missed and worried about them.

She used to not understand why mothers revolved their entire lives around their children, but now she did. It wasn’t just that a child couldn’t be without their mother; a mother also couldn’t bear to be apart from her child.

Whenever she couldn’t see them, her heart would be in a turmoil, as if a piece of it had been carved out.

Just then, Er Bao began to cry in his sleep:

"Er Bao wants female mother! Wants female mother!"

"Female mother, come back!"

He sobbed, his little paws scratching restlessly at the air.

Listening to him, Shen Yue’s eyes couldn’t help but redden.

Looking closer, she saw that the skin on Er Bao’s paws was scraped raw and blistered, the area red and swollen.

She gasped, her heart aching as she gently took his little paw to examine it.

’What happened?’

Then, she saw that Dabao’s paws were also red and swollen. His claws were torn and bleeding.

Her pupils contracted. ’My Dabao, how much must this hurt?’

She hurriedly checked the other cubs one by one and found injuries on all their hands and paws.

Just then, Bai Chaosi walked in carrying a basin of clean water.

He saw her examining the cubs with a pained expression.

He said, "My subordinates told me that after you fell into the crevice, these little ones sat under the tree crying their eyes out. They used their paws to dig at the ground, trying to open up the crevice to find you. No matter how the mermaid and the Flood Dragon tried to persuade or coax them, they couldn’t be moved. They sat under that tree for several hours, refusing to leave."

"They wouldn’t eat the food prepared for them and went hungry all day. They only fell into a deep sleep after crying themselves to exhaustion. Even in their sleep, they were still sobbing and calling for you."

As Shen Yue listened, her heart twisted in pain.

Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

She held Dabao’s little hand, his claw torn, and her heart ached so much she could barely breathe.

’So they tore their claws digging in the dirt?’

’The pain in the fingers is connected to the heart!’

’My little ones... they hurt themselves like this just to find me. How scared and terrified they must have been! How much their little hands must have hurt!’

At this thought, her heart felt as if it had been viciously stabbed by a sharp knife, the pain making it swell tight in her chest.

Tears fell in large, heavy drops.

She gently gathered all the little cubs into her arms, holding them close. Inhaling their sweet scent was the only thing that could soothe the ache in her heart.

She never would have imagined that one day, she would be so consumed by worry, so full of longing, and have such a vulnerability.

’Ever since coming to this Beast World, though I’ve faced constant danger, these cubs are the greatest gift and happiness the original owner of this body left for me!’

’I really should thank her.’

Just then, Little Qi, who was in her arms, suddenly woke up.

She opened her drowsy, ice-blue eyes, thinking she was dreaming.

"Female mother, Xi Xi wants female mother to come back!"

"Xi Xi is scared!"
