Chapter 5 — Transcending to Be the Crown Prince's Pet

Looks like I'm really sick. I frowned, feeling even more uncomfortable. The room became quiet. Suddenly, a pair of hands placed on my cheek. "Good girl, wake up and take your medicine." "After taking it, you'll feel better soon." A gentle voice rang in my ear. Ve Tu gently helped me up and carefully poured the medicine into my mouth. The bitter taste of the medicine passed through my throat, as if it were pouring straight into my heart. Perhaps when people are sick, they are at their weakest - both physically and mentally. I remember all the hardships since coming to this world. Remembering relatives you can't see again. Remember the humiliation of being auctioned off like a pet. So many memories rushed back, making the corners of my eyes red. Tears fell one after another. I clumsily wiped it away, trying to erase the weakness. "Why are you crying?" Ve Tu lifted my face, put his forehead to mine, and asked softly. "I remember that little black wolf." I sniffled and replied. I couldn't talk about time travel, so I had to make up an excuse. But as soon as I mentioned the wolf cub, my throat tightened. Thinking he had found a companion, he unexpectedly chose freedom, ran away without looking back, without bothering to say goodbye. "I miss him so much." Ve Tu was stunned, his eyes flashed with a bit of helplessness. "Do you really miss him that much?" He leaned close to my ear and whispered. The heat covering my ears made me tremble slightly. "Okay, satisfy your wish." What a weak person." As soon as the words finished, before I could react, there was no longer a shadow of him in front of my eyes, replaced by a small black wolf the size of a hand. The black wolf sat right in front of me, bright yellow eyes staring at me. I was stunned, an unbelievable thought flashed through. "Master... master?" I tried to call out tremblingly, my eyes not leaving those pupils. In my terrified vision, the wolf cub nodded. I was dumbfounded. Remembering the times I had touched and kneaded it indiscriminately before, my heart felt as cold as ash. Indeed, in this animal world, even animals have to be careful. Who knows if it's a beast or not. Seeing that I didn't move, it timidly put a small paw on the back of my hand. "Woof?" It tilted its head. Looking at that adorable movement, my heart felt like it was stabbed. Damn it, how cute is that! "After all, I've touched it before, one more time won't hurt." I told myself. I gently hugged him, avoiding his belly, pressing my face against his back. The hair was so soft that I couldn't help but rub it a few times. "Good boy." I whispered. Even though I knew it was Ve Tu, this obedient appearance still made me unable to help but arouse love. "Sleep with me tonight." I rubbed his head, holding it tightly in my chest. He nodded and quietly snuggled into my arms. "Thank you, sir." I smiled softly. I gently rubbed my face against its head, my hand gently caressing its back. Looking at my face red with fever, the little wolf raised his head and gently licked me as if to comfort me. A cold streak of moisture passed over my cheek, bringing some coolness. For some reason, I felt my face getting hotter. Maybe... the illness has gotten worse. 7I was awakened by a feeling of suffocation. With difficulty opening my eyes, I discovered that the black wolf that was originally lying in my arms had climbed onto my face from some unknown source, sleeping soundly. I reached out and took it down, holding it in my arms. "Sleeping is really messy." I patted the furry buttocks. The soft feeling made me unconsciously rub a few more times. Being disturbed by me, it sleepily opened its eyes. But I was still so engrossed, I didn't realize he was awake. Suddenly, my finger was lightly bitten, soft, warm and wet. I looked down, startled. The little wolf was completely awake and punished me with a bite, the force wasn't strong, it only brought with it a slight itch. I quickly pulled my hand back, a guilty look on my face. He stretched lazily, then gradually transformed into a dark-skinned teenager. "Are you being this naughty so early in the morning?" Ve Tu curled his lips and smiled, his eyes teasing. He raised his hand to touch my forehead, then breathed a sigh of relief: "Looks like it's okay."

The fever has subsided." As soon as he finished doing something bad, he carried me to wash my face, then sat neatly on a chair. "Wait a minute, dinner will be ready soon." Ve Tu patted my head, then entered the kitchen. I propped my chin on my hand and looked at his figure busy in the kitchen. I can't help but admit that as a master, he is truly very qualified. The prince of the empire actually took the trouble to go to the kitchen. "What are you thinking?" He brought out the food and took off his apron. While in a daze, I was just about to pick up the rice when my hand was held. "What's wrong?" I looked at him suspiciously. “Let me feed you. You just woke up sick, you probably won't have any strength left." "If you eat, you'll still have strength." I rebutted in a low voice. “I know. But I simply want to feed you.” Ve Tu smiled faintly, his eyes were gentle.
