2384 Male or Female?
The little fellow leaped off him with her hinds legs, wanting to leave.
Yet Duan Yue grabbed her tubby little body and got up with a smile. “You have quite the temper! Fine, fine, fine, let’s go home.”
“Let me feel whether you have finished digesting.”
Qiao Mu bristled in anger, and she swatted away his fingers that were reaching for her belly.
“Eh, why aren’t you letting me touch you? Speaking of which, you keep sticking to my mom. Could it be… you’re male?” Duan Yue had a strange train of thought. He looked down at the little fellow and wanted to flip her body over. “Let me see.”
See my *ss!
Qiao Mu was so livid that she was hovering between life and death. She barked at him shrilly.
Duan Yue couldn’t resist chuckling. “So you’re embarrassed. Fine, fine, I won’t look then. Don’t scratch. If you keep scratching, I really will beat you up!
“Say, why do you have such a temper when you are so small?
“But speaking of which, this is the first time I’ve seen such a cute little ermine like you…”
Duan Yue’s voice traveled off into the breeze, so Qiao Mu could only make out the gist of what he was saying. She lay on his arm sluggishly.
Even though he said that he was going to the rock slope with the large entourage of people and horses, he disappeared with Qiao Mu to be idle after arriving at the destination.
If he didn’t return again this time, everybody would get alerted and start looking for him.
The most furious person was Commandery Princess Xiangchang. She had originally fantasized about hunting the level-seven spiritual beast together with His Fourth Highness and strengthening their bond here in the rock slope.
Yet who knew that His Highness would vanish after coming here!
When Commandery Princess Xiangchang saw Duan Yue, she was so aggrieved that her eyes reddened. She hastily ran up and asked Duan Yue pitifully, “Brother Ah-Yue, where did you go alone? The second prince and third prince caught that level-seven spiritual beast. However, that fellow is still wild and needs taming before it can form a contract with humans. Do you want to go take a look?”
Duan Yue naturally did not acknowledge the commandery princess who was talking to him. He walked around her and continued on his way.
After they arrived back at the camp, the emperor was jubilant to learn that they had finally hunted a level-seven spiritual beast. He was in a good mood and ordered the servants to prepare an evening banquet.
The emperor’s order made everybody below him work even more assiduously to prepare.
Luckily, all the food had been prepared. Soon, a frame was set up in front of this camp, with short tables there surrounding the bonfire. The musicians and dancers also performed splendidly to contribute to the festivities.
Soon, Duan Yue carried Qiao Mu to the evening banquet. She lay there drowsily, looking dispirited.
Duan Yue teased her with food as if no one else was present. He completely ignored Commandery Princess Xiangchang’s shining stare from the short table next to his.
As the emperor, queen, and consorts entered, the atmosphere got more and more intense.
The officials’ toasts, congratulations, and laughter meshed into one scene in this drinking party.
The stars were out tonight, and the moon was shining softly.
Qiao Mu rolled her small body and lay there on the short table with her head facing the sky.
“Why does the little cutie keep looking at the sky today? It must be that you didn’t take good care of her. I think that it’s hopelessly bored!” Noble Consort Duan walked over and picked up Qiao Mu from sprawling on the table. She scratched under her jaw.
Duan Yue: …
“Mom, you came to snatch my Little Dumpling again.”
Noble Consort Duan waved her hand off. She ignored her son’s protests and walked back to her place with the little lady.
