Clumsy Beast, Keep Your Paws Off

Chapter 585: Those Cubs Definitely Didn’t Take After Their Parents

Several days quickly passed inside the Dragon Beast City, and during these few days, the old healer had almost completely moved himself into Su Qinglan’s life.Every morning, the old man would appear at her wooden house with his medicine bag hanging on his shoulder while loudly shouting from outside before even entering.

"Girl! Did you eat properly today?"

Or sometimes...

"Did those useless husbands of yours make you angry again?"

At first Su Qinglan did not know whether to laugh or cry, but slowly she became used to his loud and overbearing personality.

Even though the old healer was grumpy and loved scolding people every few sentences, Su Qinglan could clearly feel that the old man truly cared about her from the bottom of his heart.

It was the kind of affection an elder held toward his own child.

And perhaps because he had been alone for so long, now that he suddenly gained a granddaughter, he treated Su Qinglan like a treasure every single day.

Meanwhile, the old healer also became strangely attached to the three little cubs.

Surprisingly, the three troublemakers who usually turned the house upside down every single day actually became obedient in front of him.

That was the most shocking thing for Su Qinglan.

Usually Xiao Yi and Xiao Er would be fighting over food or wrestling each other on the floor while Xiao San silently caused chaos from behind. Even in front of Su Mingxuan they still acted spoiled and mischievous.

But the moment the old healer sat down with his beard and cane...

The three cubs immediately sat properly in one line like the most obedient children in the entire beast world.

Their small backs were straight while their round eyes stared at the old healer seriously.

Not even one dared make noise.

Seeing this scene almost made Su Qinglan laugh until her stomach hurt.

The old healer proudly stroked his beard while teaching them random things.

"Sit properly," he said sternly.

The cubs instantly straightened themselves even more.

"Good," the old healer nodded proudly.

Su Qinglan almost burst into laughter seeing Xiao Yi’s suffering expression because the little tiger clearly wanted to run outside and play.

But he did not dare.

Finally, this morning, after checking Su Qinglan’s pulse once again, the old healer nodded in satisfaction before standing up.

"You’ve been staying inside the house too long," he said while putting away his medicine pouch. "Pregnant females should walk more before birth. It helps the body."

Then he looked at her proudly before saying,

"Come with your grandpa today. I’ll take you around Dragon Beast City and introduce you to some people."

Su Qinglan blinked slightly.

The idea honestly was not bad.

She really did want to build more connections in Dragon Beast City.

And following behind the old healer, who was practically one of the most respected people here aside from the City Lord and Priestess, would definitely make things easier for her.

Thinking this, Su Qinglan immediately smiled sweetly.

"Then Grandpa Ye must help me leave a very good impression on everyone, okay?"

The old healer immediately snorted loudly.

"You sweet talker," he huffed proudly. "Just follow this grandpa properly. I’ll definitely help you make many friends."

Su Qinglan laughed before slowly standing up.

At this time, her stomach was already noticeably round. She was very close to giving birth, maybe within four or five days, or perhaps one week at most.

Thankfully, most things inside the tribe had already stabilized.

Their stone house was almost completely finished.

Shi Feng had personally helped build many things inside, including the wooden bed and bamboo cabinets Su Qinglan wanted.

Even the vegetable garden behind the house had started sprouting tiny green plants.

Many fox tribe members had also successfully moved into their new stone houses.

Everything was slowly becoming better.

Only Rong Ye and An Mo still had no news.

Thinking about them made Su Qinglan’s heart tighten slightly, but she could do nothing except wait silently.

So going outside today honestly helped distract her thoughts.

Just as she and the old healer prepared to leave, Hu Yan immediately stepped out from the kitchen after hearing them.

"I’ll go too," he said calmly while wiping his hands.

But before he could move, Shi Feng suddenly blocked him.

"You stay and cook," Shi Feng said expressionlessly. "I’ll accompany Lan Lan."

Hu Yan narrowed his eyes immediately.

Shi Feng calmly looked back at him without fear. For a few seconds, the atmosphere became tense.

Finally Hu Yan coldly snorted before turning back toward the kitchen.

Shi Feng’s lips curved slightly upward in victory before he quickly followed behind Su Qinglan and the old healer.

Meanwhile, near the doorway, three tiny heads quietly peeked outside.

The moment they saw the old healer leaving farther and farther away, all three cubs suddenly looked at each other.

A bright glint immediately appeared in their eyes.

Finally...

The grumpy great grandpa was gone!

Without hesitation, the three little cubs instantly transformed into their beast forms.

Two fluffy tiger cubs and one tiny snake shot out from the doorway at lightning speed before running away excitedly.

"Let’s go play!"

"Quick quick!"

"Mother can’t catch us now!"

The cubs immediately disappeared down the road like little bandits escaping prison.

Not far away, Xuan Long lazily leaned against the wall while silently watching everything.

Looking at the sneaky cubs running away, he sighed helplessly before quietly following behind them.

After all, these little things were truly too troublesome.

The last time he looked away for only a moment, they had already started fighting with another group of cubs.

Thinking about that chaotic scene, Xuan Long rubbed his forehead.

"Really..." he muttered lazily. "These little ancestors never know how to stay still."

He really did not know who exactly these cubs had inherited their personalities from.

Xuan Long walked leisurely behind the three little troublemakers while staring at their tiny beast forms darting wildly ahead of him.

Honestly speaking, none of their parents matched them at all.

He himself had always been a quiet and gloomy child. Even now, he still preferred silence most of the time.

As for Hu Yan...

That tiger practically lived with a straight face every single day and treated discipline more seriously than breathing.

And Su Qinglan...

Thinking about her, Xuan Long’s emerald eyes softened slightly. There female was gentle, sweet, patient, and soft-hearted to an unbelievable degree.

Yet somehow...

These three cubs turned out completely wrong.
