Chapter 385 Growing Up
After crying, He Jiaojiao looked at Xikang carefully and made sure that he had no injuries, then she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Will you run again in the future?"
Xikang shook his head with red eyes, "I won't run away anymore. I will always stay by my mother's side and never run away again."
He Jiaojiao was so angry that she laughed, "Forget it, if I stay here forever, your father will definitely despise me to death."
As she was speaking, He Jiaojiao saw Mo Ran walking towards her.
"Aran..."
He Jiaojiao subconsciously protected Xikang behind her.
Mo Ran smiled bitterly. Could it be that Jiaojiao thought he would attack Xikang? Why was she protecting him so tightly?
but......
Mo Ran's gaze fell on Xikang, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he was at least intact.
It seemed that he had been with He Jiaojiao for too long, and he seemed to be more worried about the cubs. Mo Ran didn't know whether this was good or bad, but Jiaojiao should be happy after all.
"came back!"
Mo Ran spoke coldly.
Xikang shuddered with fear and pursed his thin lips even tighter. You know, he was often punished by his father in the past. This time he did something so hurtful to his mother, and he would definitely not just give him a small lesson.
"Jiaojiao, there's something over there that we're not sure about. We want you to go over and take a look."
Strangely, Mo Ran didn't seem to intend to pursue the matter of Xikang. He pulled He Jiaojiao and walked towards the boat.
Just when Xikang was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he sensed danger and subconsciously dodged. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and managed to avoid it.
"Yes, Not Bad!"
Mo Ran turned around and looked at Xi Kang, who looked a little embarrassed.
Mo Ran had used some force in the previous attack and had thought Xikang would not be able to dodge it. But now it seems that the experience outside during this period of time has made him grow a lot.
Xikang was so flattered that he froze in his tracks, not knowing how to react. Suddenly, Zening and Wei'an rushed over and hugged him.
"What are you still standing there for? Father means he doesn't blame you, shouldn't you be happy?"
Wei An couldn't help but rub Xi Kang's head.
"But why were you so powerful just now? I thought you would definitely be hit by your father!"
Xikang scratched his head embarrassedly. During this time outside, he had to be alert at all times in order to save his life, so he was naturally more alert.
I was able to dodge just now, purely out of instinct.
"How about we have a sparring match between brothers? Let's see how much you've grown outside?"
Wei'an was eager to start stretching his muscles. Zening rarely tried to persuade him but watched them with interest, as if he also wanted to see how much progress Xikang had made.
On the big ship not far away, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked over here. They were particularly concerned about how much progress Xikang had made during this period of time. After all, he was their own child.
The two cubs quickly turned into snakes and fought each other. After a while, Weikon was at a disadvantage. Hongyi always had a good relationship with Weikon, so he joined in when he saw this.
I thought Xikang would have a hard time in a one-on-two situation, but unexpectedly he still won easily.
"It seems that Xikang has suffered a lot outside during this period of time!" Ziyi couldn't help but speak.
He Jiaojiao held Mo Ran's hand tightly, leaned in his arms, and watched Xikang and his brothers laughing happily together.
It gets dark quickly.
There was a big bonfire on the beach. He Jiaojiao sat not far from the fire, watching the kids happily eating meat together. He Jiaojiao couldn't contain her happiness.
"Jiaojiao can rest assured now, right?" Zhuxiong walked over and held Xiangling in one hand. Perhaps because he was too tall, Xiangling looked like a little doll in his arm.
"Give me Xiangling!"
He Jiaojiao stretched out her hand, and Zhuxiong quickly bent down and put Xiangling in He Jiaojiao's arms.
"One day, Xiangling will pull a male and say to you, 'Father, I want to go with him.' Then you will understand!"
Sure enough, the next second, Takekuma's face changed suddenly.
"If that's the case, I guess Zhu Xiong will definitely have a good fight with that brat." Mo Ran also walked over and sat down next to He Jiaojiao.
He Jiaojiao looked at Zhuxiong in surprise. Looking at his appearance, it seemed that he would really be like what Mo Ran said!
As expected, a daughter is a father’s life, no matter what world we are in!
"Are you Li Shen?"
As they were talking, they suddenly saw Xikang walk up to Li Shen and stop. He Jiaojiao couldn't help but frown slightly, not understanding why Xikang would deliberately greet Li Shen.
"Yeah!" Li Shen was not surprised at all. After all, he was the only pink mermaid in this sea, so it was not surprising that he recognized his identity.
Xikang looked at Li Shen, then at Tao Tao beside him. After thinking for a moment, he said to Li Shen, "I have something I want to ask you. Is that okay?"
Tao Tao looked at the little snake beast in front of her with some amusement. He was so young, but he had a stern face and acted like an adult. It was funny no matter how you looked at him.
"What do you want to do with Ah Shen?"
Xikang didn't say anything, but just looked at Li Shen straight, as if waiting for his answer.
Tao Tao didn't expect the little guy to ignore her, and she felt a little embarrassed. But Li Shen seemed to guess what Xikang wanted to talk to him about, so he smiled at Tao Tao, patted her hand, and then stood up and followed Xikang to the nearby woods.
"What does Xikang want to do with Li Shen?"
He Jiaojiao looked at the direction they left, feeling a little worried. It wasn't that she thought Li Shen would dare to do anything to Xi Kang, but after all, there was a divine beast-level person in the family, so no matter how powerful Li Shen was, he would probably have some concerns.
"Do not worry!"
Mo Ran picked up a piece of animal skin to cover He Jiaojiao's exposed legs.
It was a long time before Xikang and Li Shen returned to everyone's sight. Seeing that both of them were safe and sound, He Jiaojiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But she was really curious about what the two of them talked about over there, and why couldn't she see anything from their expressions?
"Xikang, come here!"
He Jiaojiao decided to ask Xikang, so she called him over.
"Mother." Xikang came over and sat down obediently next to He Jiaojiao.
"Do you know Li Shen?" He Jiaojiao did not choose to ask directly.
"Yeah!" Xi Kang nodded. "During my time wandering around, I heard some things about him."
Upon hearing that Xikang actually knew about Li Shen before, Tao Tao hurried over to He Jiaojiao's side of the fire and asked curiously, "Then can you tell me what you heard about Li Shen?"
Xikang looked up at Li Shen and asked, "Aunt Tao, do you want to hear whether it's true or not?"
Tao Tao couldn't help but laugh, "Little brat, if you want to listen, of course you want to listen to the truth. What's the point of listening to lies?"
Xi Kang nodded. "I've heard people say before that a pink mermaid would appear from time to time near the coast, and would always try to chat with the females..."
