75: Chapter 75 The Compromising Tiger, the Arrogant Tiger
An Ke wanted to let the Little Tiger return to its mother's side.
However, the Little Tiger hugged An Ke's leg and had no intention of leaving.
This made the scene quite awkward.
Watching Tiger Mom stare at him even more fiercely than before, An Ke felt very helpless.
It's not that I don't want your child to go back to you.
It's that your child has latched onto me!
An Ke gave a dry cough, breaking the awkward atmosphere, and said:
"How about we relax first?" He tried to communicate with Tiger Mom.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt your child."
With [Natural Affinity], Tiger Mom could naturally understand An Ke's words.
However, it didn't answer immediately.
Its sharp, deep eyes scanned the surroundings.
Beside An Ke, Little Scar and the other monkeys had formed a defensive line of spears.
All the monkeys pointed their spears at it; though they looked tense, their eyes were resolute.
Tiger Mom believed that if it dared to approach, these monkeys would risk their lives to fight it without hesitation.
An Ke glanced over and said with a faint smile, "To show my sincerity, I'll have Little Scar and the others put down their weapons."
Clearly, Tiger Mom was wary of Little Scar and the group of monkeys holding spears.
Under normal circumstances, it's hard for monkeys to hurt a tiger.
But with weapons in hand, it's a different story.
"Everyone, put down your weapons," An Ke soothed.
Although Little Scar and the others were reluctant, they ultimately followed An Ke's command and put down their weapons.
"We've shown our sincerity; now it's your turn," An Ke said, looking at Tiger Mom.
Tiger Mom pondered for a moment and finally had to compromise.
It let out a low growl: "As long as you don't hurt my child, I won't attack either."
Actually, Tiger Mom felt very helpless in its heart.
Its own child was purely siding with an outsider; what could it do?
Now the Little Tiger had run over to the other side.
If the other party made a move, it wouldn't even be able to save it; it could only pray that the other party was telling the truth.
That they really wouldn't hurt the Little Tiger...
Seeing that An Ke didn't continue to drive it away, the Little Tiger started giggling happily.
It kept climbing up An Ke's shoulder, scrambling to get to the top of his head.
An Ke didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
But since the little guy was so cute, he just let it have its way.
There was a big difference in size between the Little Tiger and the Little Wild Leopard.
Leopards have robust bodies, natural bodybuilders who aren't afraid of how much they eat.
But tigers actually do get fat.
The Little Leopard, this little guy, was now raised chubby by Tiger Mom.
It looked adorable.
Just then, the Little Leopard also ran over and started pawing at An Ke's leg.
The Little Leopard was very unhappy that the Little Tiger had monopolized An Ke and was acting spoiled with him.
So, it rushed over to fight the Little Tiger for An Ke's attention.
The two little guys vied for favor in An Ke's arms like this, neither giving an inch.
To the point that they made An Ke's hair look like a bird's nest.
Watching this scene, Tiger Mom's eyelids twitched.
How did it not know its own child was so clingy?
To be honest, it really wanted to teach the Little Tiger a good lesson after going back.
It had worked so hard to raise the Little Tiger, and this was its attitude?
Had all those years of raising been in vain?
However, seeing the Little Tiger frolicking, Tiger Mom's worries gradually faded.
It began to lie on the ground, slowly relaxing.
In the live broadcast room, the people of the Dragon Kingdom also relaxed their tense nerves upon seeing this.
"Scared me to death! The crisis is finally over!!"
"How is it over? Look at the big tiger's posture; it looks relaxed, but it's actually ready to attack at any moment."
"Indeed! The tiger hasn't let down its guard, but the tension between the two sides has been diffused."
"Next, as long as Boss An can gain the tiger's trust, no one will bleed."
"It's all thanks to this Little Tiger this time!"
"Yeah! Haha, this Little Tiger is really killing me with laughter. Is it really okay to not want your own mom?"
"Did you guys see Tiger Mom's expression just now?"
"I saw it! I almost spat out my food just now. If Tiger Mom were human, the Little Tiger would probably get a severe beating after going back."
"Siding with an outsider, how could it not get beaten?"
"Hahaha! But it did resolve a crisis for our Dragon Kingdom."
"So cute! Much cuter than the Little Leopard."
"What nonsense are you talking? The Little Leopard is the cutest, okay?"
"..."
In the broadcast, An Ke held the Little Leopard in one arm and the Little Tiger in the other.
He said with a smile, "Come on! I'll take you two little guys to eat some dried meat."
To prevent Tiger Mom from misunderstanding and launching an attack, An Ke consulted it first.
Once Tiger Mom nodded, he then walked toward the Camp carrying the Little Tiger and the Little Wild Leopard.
After several days of air-drying, some of the beef had turned into beef jerky.
Of course! The texture was still a bit different from real beef jerky.
After all, no additives had been added.
Arriving at the Camp, An Ke intended to set the two little guys down.
The Little Leopard jumped down very obediently, but when it was the Little Tiger's turn...
This little guy refused to get out of An Ke's arms no matter what.
It clung tightly to An Ke, for fear of being abandoned once it got down.
Seeing this, the Little Leopard immediately jumped back into An Ke's arms and wouldn't come down either.
The two little guys started vying with each other in An Ke's arms once again.
They looked just like concubines in a harem fighting for favor.
"If you're like this, how am I supposed to get the beef jerky for you to eat?"
An Ke had to ask the monkeys for help to bring down the air-dried beef in the Camp.
The two little guys were originally "kicking and punching" in An Ke's arms, neither yielding.
But as soon as the beef jerky was brought before them, the two little guys immediately began to wolf it down.
They ate with great relish.
However, what left people speechless was that while eating, the two little guys glared at each other and let out low growls to warn one another.
It was just like taking a bite and then bickering, taking another bite and bickering again.
Tiger Mom and Leopard Mom watched from the side with black lines on their faces.
How could they have given birth to such silly children?
The atmosphere at the scene cooled down once more, completely losing the previous sense of tension.
Tiger Mom's posture of being ready to attack at any time also gradually changed, and it truly relaxed.
Jingang, who had been following An Ke all along, finally let out a sigh of relief.
"Crisis averted! Crisis averted!"
"Master is awesome! Master is awesome!"
If An Ke hadn't won over the Little Tiger, the two sides might have already started fighting.
After shouting a few times, Jingang changed its tune and shouted, "Master is awesome! Master is hungry!"
"Crazy Thursday! V me 50!"
"..."
An Ke looked up, speechlessly watching the Parrot full of trash talk.
"I see, your purpose in praising me was just for what you said afterward, right?"
"To offer one's heart for the master is our glory!" Jingang retorted.
An Ke ignored the Parrot and said to everyone, "It's just in time for the meal; everyone, get ready to eat."
Little Scar's group of monkeys and the Wild Leopard immediately ran happily to the eating area in the Camp, ready to eat.
An Ke then looked at the tiger still standing dazed outside.
He invited, "Come in and eat together!"
The tiger could feel An Ke's kindness.
And that he kept his promise and truly had no ill will toward the Little Tiger.
It felt relieved in its heart.
It growled at An Ke, "I don't want your food."
"Wait..."
After saying this, the tiger turned and walked away.
Looking at the tiger's back, An Ke shook his head secretly and said, "Even more of a tsundere than the Wild Leopard!"
