Chapter 19: Nosebleed
“Oh my, look at this little male. Who’s being so petty?”
“Fine. If you don’t want to see me, I’m leaving.”
She made a move to get up. Lanlan was startled and immediately leapt from the water, turning to bite her hem: Don’t. Go!
Su Miantang was nearly melted by its cuteness. She cupped its head with both hands and apologized, “I’m sorry, Lanlan. I shouldn’t have teased you and hurt your tiny self-esteem. But since Master has seen you completely, I will definitely take responsibility for you.”
Really?
As her words fell, a joyful, shimmering light appeared in the little tiger’s eyes.
Will Master take responsibility for him for a lifetime?
It looked at her expectantly, waiting for a promise. Su Miantang actually managed to “get” the idea from those sparkling eyes. A lifetime?
That wouldn’t do.
Don’t be fooled by how it’s better behaved than a cat now; once it grows up and its wild nature breaks out, it’ll eat her!
“But you have to be obedient first. You aren’t allowed to disobey Master’s orders. Take your bath properly.”
Mm-hmm!
Lanlan listens to Master the most!
Following that, it was incredibly cooperative.
Su Miantang’s cleaning process became much smoother. Pet shampoo, grooming brushes, and conditioning liquids were used in turn, carefully washing away the bloodstains and mud that had dried overnight. After the wash… she was stunned!
Lanlan was actually a white tiger!
It was simply too beautiful!
Especially after being blown dryāthe snow-white fur was fluffy and thick, with black stripes evenly distributed across its body, forming a clear ‘King’ (ē) character on its forehead. Its head was round, its snout slightly broad, its eyes were ruby red, and its paws were thick pads. Its tail was thick and powerful, and its ears were different from Enzo’sāround and fluffy, like dandelion seeds, making one want to blow on them.
A “little brain-axe” (tiger) truly lived up to being the King of Beasts. Its form and appearance were so perfect it seemed as if the Creator had shown it extra favoritism, let alone a one-in-a-million white tiger.
Because it was a first-class protected animal and an endangered species, she had never seen one on Earth, only heard of them in mythology.
‘Azure Dragon on the left, White Tiger on the right, Vermilion Bird above, Black Tortoise below’āthis was one of the Four Divine Beasts of Heaven, a creature of auspicious omen!
Had she picked up a treasure?
Su Miantang couldn’t help but pull it into her arms, rubbing and nuzzling it frantically.
Lanlan was struck by this sudden “King’s treatment.” It dazed for a moment, then leapt up, limbs hanging onto her body as it wagged its head and acted spoiled to the max.
While it was blissfully enjoying this intimate contact… it was lifted up again.
“Lanlan.”
What is it, Master?
“Your claws caught me.”
It hadn’t! It had clearly retracted them; it was just that Masterās skin was too tender.
“We’re clipping your nails tomorrow.”
Woo~
No! Without nails, it couldn’t play with the cat scratcher anymore.
It hung its head.
“No ‘nos’ allowed. Don’t think you can use your cuteness to get away with ‘assault’!”
For some reason, its “tiger-head, tiger-brain” (silly and cute) aggrieved look always stirred Su Miantangās desire to bully it. This wicked sense of humor was punished that night.
She put the little tiger into its fully equipped simulated ecological nest. Seeing it narrow its eyes, she went back to her room to sleep with peace of mind.
To her surprise, in the middle of the night, something swished flexibly into her covers. She woke up with a start. Pulling back the blanket, she saw a certain white tiger cub with its belly up, trying to act spoiled to stay here.
Master, Iām here~
“Lanlanā”
“Go back to your own nest to sleep!”
Gritting her teeth, she carried it back with a warning.
The little tigerās tail drooped, its face full of unhappiness. Half an hour later, it repeated the trick.
Su Miantang carried it back again. After several repetitions, she was nearly driven mad by sleepiness. “Such a beautiful, comfortable nest, and you won’t sleep in it? You insist on squeezing in here with me?”
That nest isn’t as beautiful as Master, and it isn’t as comfortable as Master’s body. Lanlan wants to sleep with Master!
Seeing its claws gripping the bedsheets tightly, she knew it was determined to stay. Su Miantang had no choice; exhausted, she had to hold it and sleep together for the time being.
In the dead of night, in the pitch-black room, the little tiger’s pure, clear ruby eyes were bright as it stared unblinkingly at the girl’s sleeping, beautiful face.
Master is so beautiful, so fragrant, and so soft~
It couldn’t help but stick out its tongue, licking her cheek, her neck…
The next morning, Su Miantangās body gave a jolt. She took a deep breath and looked down at a tiger head buried in her chest, having torn her clothes. Black lines filled her forehead.
“Lanlan, I told you, thereās no milk there!”
It knew, but…
It smacked its lips.
It liked it very much.
Truly, one shouldn’t sleep with a pet. No matter how one looked at it, it was still a beast; it had no human emotions or cognition and didn’t even know what an absurd thing it had done.
She clenched her hands, controlled her breathing, and took her clothes into the bathroom.
Is Master angry?
She hadn’t hugged it, nuzzled it, or mixed its bottle after waking up.
Lanlan wagged its tail somewhat at a loss. Hearing the “hualala” sound of the shower outside, it decided to go and apologize. Unexpectedly, just as it reached the doorway, it sawā
Through the steaming, misty vapor, Master’s skin was whiter than snow, her dark hair like a waterfall. Her exquisite figure was like a pictorial, with translucent water droplets sliding down her curves one by one…
Beautiful. Truly, too beautiful. So beautiful that its eyes went straight. It felt some surging hot current rushing madly through its body.
Su Miantang was showering when she suddenly heard a soft, feline pattering of footsteps.
She turned around. As expected, it was Lanlan.
However, why did it have a nosebleed?
“What’s wrong with you?”
Worried, she rushed over. Naked and at such close range, hit by such a vivid and seductive sight, the little tiger’s nosebleed spurted like a fountain, and it fainted directly.
Su Miantang: “…”
She performed an emergency physical check on it and found that other than being a bit “overheated” (internal heat), there were no other issues.
When it woke up, she gave it a harsh scolding.
“This is what happens when you toss and turn at night and don’t sleep properly. Now you’ve stayed up until you have health problems!”
It wasn’t that.
It wasn’t because of staying up late.
The little tiger turned its head away shyly, not daring to look at her.
Su Miantang thought it was being defiant and rubbed its head vigorously.
“Did you hear me?”
“If you dare do this again, Iām throwing you outside to sleep!”
Hearing about being thrown out, the little tiger shook its head repeatedly in fear. Its four paws gripped her leg tightly like a koala.
No, don’t throw me out, Master…
I’ll be obedient and never peep at Master showering again!
Seeing it so well-behaved, her scare tactic successful, Su Miantang happily went to mix the milk.
For the next few days, the person and pet spent a very warm and sweet life together.
Su Miantang clipped the little tiger’s nails.
It didn’t like it, but it couldn’t resist. it feigned baring its teeth to bite her hand, but as it bit, it couldn’t help but lick instead. Master was simply too fragrant and tender!
