Subordinate Doting - Chap 21
Then all evidence of a physical body’s existence in this world is reduced to ashes.
All that was left was a small stone that I bought for 25 yuan.
He Zhuo watched this process hundreds of times in his dreams.
Every time it hurt so much that he couldn’t breathe…
Before his rebirth, he was an absolute atheist and firmly believed that there were no ghosts or gods in this world. However, every time he dreamed of the kitten that died tragically in the fire, he wanted to kneel down and beg all the gods in the world to exchange themselves for him.
”Did you cry?”
Ji Tingyu reached out and touched his face, wondering why those beautiful eyes showed such despair again.
”It’s because the snowstorm is too strong.”
The wolf replied, gently rubbing his palm.
In the following time, the man and the wolf fell into silence, silently searching for usable medicine and bandages in the criminal’s backpack.
Unfortunately, not a single pill was found, but luckily Ji Tingyu found something else – “They even remembered to bring water and chocolate!”
And it’s unopened.
His thirsty throat was instantly awakened, and he immediately unscrewed the water bottle. The moment the clean water poured in, every dry cell in his body from the inside out was moisturized.
After a night of wandering, running and fighting, the salmon he had eaten in the tavern had long been digested. He was now hungry and cold, his throat was smoking, and he wished he could finish the bottle of water.
But he couldn’t do that.
He still has companions, and he doesn’t know how long he will be trapped.
”Come and have some.” Ji Tingyu handed the water to the wolf.
The wolf shook his head: “Not thirsty.”
”How can I not be thirsty? Now is not the time for you to be selfless. We both need to make sure we have enough energy.”
He was afraid that he would refuse again, so he directly pried open the giant wolf’s mouth and pushed the bottle in.
He Zhuo was caught off guard and almost choked to death. As a result, water entered his left mouth and flowed out of his right mouth.
”…Is that a straw in your mouth?” Ji Tingyu couldn’t believe it.
He Zhuo was also somewhat helpless.
How can you blame him? Wolves, like cats, drink water by licking it.
”It’s all wasted. What are you going to drink when you’re thirsty…”
He didn’t blame He Zhuo for spilling the water, but was worried that he would have nothing to drink.
Looking at the water spilled on his hands, Ji Tingyu felt so distressed that he wanted to pounce on it and lick it.
But the next second, someone licked it for him.
The wolf stretched out its long tongue and wrapped it around his hand.
The warm touch starts from the back of the hand and slowly spreads downwards. The rows of barbs on the tongue are not sharp, but they feel distinct.
After licking the water droplets on the back of his hand and wrist, he licked up his fingers and curled up each one to find the water.
Ji Tingyu’s whole body stiffened, and the string in his head instantly tightened.
The entire spine felt like it was fried in a frying pan. It was extremely numb and I couldn’t move.
”It’s dirty, don’t lick it…”
He lowered his head to push the wolf’s head, but He Zhuo not only did not let go, but instead moved his tongue down and licked his forearm.
”Ugh—what are you doing! Let me go!”
There were many tiny wounds on the forearms caused by the explosion. When they were licked, they felt stinging as if a handful of pebbles were rolling in the wounds.
He was really furious this time, even his bones were burning: “Stop right now! If you don’t stop I’ll beat you up–”
”I’m disinfecting you.” He Zhuo’s voice finally rang out.
”The pain you feel means they are infected.”
Wolf saliva can be used for disinfection, and wolves in the wild will lick their wounds when they are injured. If Ji Tingyu had a high fever due to infection and inflammation of the wound, he would be dead tonight.
“…Ah? Disinfection?”
Ji Tingyu stood there in a daze.
Looking at the wolf’s face which couldn’t be more serious, he inexplicably felt a lump of anger in his heart.
He Zhuo took advantage of his dazed state to continue licking him, his tongue had already moved from his forearm to his neck. Ji Tingyu was pressed against the ground by him, with his collar wide open.
He felt something was wrong, and quickly grabbed the button before the zipper was bitten open: “Are you going to go down? I’m covered in wounds, are you going to lick them all?”
”Why not? What’s the difference between licking a part and licking the whole? It’s such a big deal and you’re still shy.”
His answer was so serious that Ji Tingyu was speechless: “I, I…”
”Why would I be shy at any time? I’m a fucking omega!”
Ji Tingyu seemed to have just remembered this, and immediately pushed the wolf away, hurriedly picking up his shy power.
He Zhuo chuckled as he watched him get angry. Whenever he saw Ji Tingyu full of energy, he wanted to thank God.
”How dare you laugh!”
Ji Tingyu didn’t know how he could see a smile on the wolf’s face. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the wolf’s mouth fiercely and said, “I say, you are not teasing me on purpose, are you?”
The wolf had a look on his face that said “I didn’t even try to hide it.”
The cat was so angry that all the hair on its body stood up.
”You should be thankful that I was injured, or I would have knocked all your teeth out!”
”Are you that afraid of me?”
”Who wouldn’t be afraid of you when you’re so big!” He was justified in being afraid.
”But you know I won’t hurt you.”
The wolf looked him in the eyes and said, “Didn’t you notice that when you first saw my true form you were so scared you wanted to jump out of my mouth, but now you dare to tear my face without restraint.”
This is true, even Ji Tingyu himself was surprised: Why did I let down my guard against him so quickly?
”You are so ungrateful for getting such a bargain.”
He pinched the wolf’s face hard again before letting go.
The wolf tilted its head and butted him, “Your wound is bleeding.”
He Zhuo really wanted to help him clean his wound. Having a fever on a snowy mountain was no joke.
”I know, never mind.”
“What if I get infected?”
”Then die.”
“…”
