Chapter 4 — Transcending to Be the Crown Prince's Pet

I laughed happily. The black wolf looked at me, then quietly turned his back, his entire back exuding resentment. So cute I can die! I hugged its head tightly and kissed it. "Cute furry babies need to be kissed." "Woof... woof~" Just as he was about to cry, I stopped him with a kiss. In the end, only a trembling, intermittent sound came out. After cuddling and rubbing the whole time, I contentedly held him in my arms. "It's so good, I'm lucky to have you by my side." I whispered. 5The next morning, when I opened my eyes, out of habit I reached out and touched the side. Not feeling the familiar fuzzy fur, I panicked and woke up from the blanket. "Good baby, wake up." Ve Tu knocked on my door. "Master, have you seen a black wolf?" I quickly opened the door. He paused, his voice suddenly raised: "What black wolf? I didn't see it." "Isn't that your pet?" I impatiently grabbed his wrist. Ve Tu lowered his eyes, avoided my gaze, and awkwardly replied: "Maybe it was a wild wolf running out of the deep forest." It's morning, it must have returned to the mountain." Hearing that, I let go, feeling disappointed. "So will it come back?" I muttered softly, my voice as small as a mosquito. "What's wrong, do you like it a lot?" Ve Tu asked. I didn't pay attention to that strange tone. I just followed my heart and nodded: "Like." Who doesn't like cute fur? "Don't worry, maybe one day it will come back." Ve Tu patted my head, his voice carrying a bit of joy. "Yes." I pursed my lips. Having said that, I was mentally prepared that it would never come back. Anyway, how can a free wolf be willing to stay with me? "Let's go, let's eat." Ve Tu naturally picked me up and put me on the chair. I quickly hid my sadness and slowly began to eat. He sat next to me, flipping through a book. Looking over curiously, I saw printed in big words on the cover: 《Treatise on how to raise humans》. “This is…” I looked at him, my eyes full of complexity. I didn't expect him to even take the trouble to read this kind of book, I thought he would ignore it and just keep me alive. “I heard that humans have to bathe regularly.” He closed the book and looked thoughtful. "Good boy, how many days have you not bathed?" His searching eyes fell straight on me. I paused, my face turned red. "I'm very clean, it's just that conditions didn't allow it before." I quickly argued. "So how many days has it been?" Stared at by his teasing eyes, I awkwardly smiled: "Five days." Ve Tu raised his eyebrows, assessed me for a moment, then asserted: "I will bathe you now." "I don't need it!" I jumped up and tried to run, but he pushed my head back. "Good boy." He picked me up and walked straight towards the bathroom. "I bathe myself, I know how to bathe!" I struggled. “No way. What if you drown? “The book clearly states that humans are very weak.” He held my hands tightly, his voice serious. Stripped naked and thrown into the bathtub, I blushed silently. Shame, resentment, so many mixed emotions. Ve Tu placed fresh flowers in the water and also placed a small yellow duck. He flipped the book while working, muttering. "There are flowers, there is foam... "Ah, yellow ducks are indispensable. "The water temperature must be just right." Listening to him ramble, I submerged myself in the water, only my head sticking out. The rising heat made my face hot and my head dizzy. I don't know if it's because of the heat or because of embarrassment, my whole face is red. "Eh? Why is your face so red?" He was suspicious, reached out to touch my forehead. Ve Tu bowed his head, flipped the book. "Oh, when humans take a bath, their face will be reddened by the heat. "This is a normal phenomenon." He nodded, seemingly awakened. I couldn't bear to listen anymore, so I angrily pulled his hand. Unprepared, he was yanked straight into the bathtub by me. The book fell to the ground. Ve Tu fell on top of me, his black hair was wet by the water, each strand stuck to his cheek. Drops of water flowed from his eyebrows. Rolling down to the collar, the thin shirt stuck tightly to the body, each line clearly visible

out. "Really." Having a yellow duck with you isn't enough, do you still want me to bathe together?" He sighed softly, his voice helpless. "Okay, then I'll stay with you." Hearing that, I shrank back, my face red as fire. If I knew it, I wouldn't have pulled him down! Ve Tu conveniently took off his wet shirt, hugged me to his chest, placing his chin on top of my head. He gently rubbed my hair, then bent down and pressed his face to the nape of my neck, letting out a sigh of contentment. Hot, humid breath blew behind my ear, making me itch and shrink my neck. "Cold?" He asked casually, his voice sounding indifferent. Before he could answer, he tightened his grip, pressing me completely against his chest. The heat from his body rushed over me, sweat beaded on my forehead. Are all beastmen as hot as fire? I thought vaguely. After a moment of struggling, he carried me out of the bathroom and laid me on the bed. For the first time, I felt - bathing was a real torment.6 Perhaps because I was soaking in the water for too long while bathing, I caught a cold. With a fever that made my face red, I lay in bed so uncomfortable that I cried. "Are you sick?" Ve Tu put his hand on my forehead, his face full of worry. "Wait a minute, I'll go call the doctor."
