Beastman Forcefully Raising a Wife

Chapter 73

Looking at the sulky little snake, Shu Jintian felt both worried and amused.

“Okay, be good, little snake~ You’ll be able to turn back in the future. Eat fruits first ba. You’re human now, so don’t eat raw meat, okay?”

Shu Jintian picked the freshest fruit and passed it to little snake. Although he knew that it was more suitable for the little snake to eat raw meat, Shu Jintian still privately hoped that their children could be a little more like him. His own son being a wild animal was terrible enough, but Tiantian watching his animal son eating raw meat was about to make him collapse, alright! Now that his son was already turning into a human, Shu Jintian could no longer bear it.

Little snake puckered his lips. Seeing that female father was really not intending to look for meat for him, he gloomily nibbled on the fruit. The rice-sized teeth looked young, but were especially sharp. The pulp was bitten off with a crunch. The little snake chewed for a while and then twisted up his little face. Wuuuah~ So gross…

“Be good, little snake~” The infant’s adorable appearance made Shu Jintian want to cuddle him. His appearance of eating the wild fruit while frowning like a small adult was also super adorable. Shu Jintian suddenly felt like calling his child little snake was awkward.

“I’ll give you a name ba, and I’ll give you your formal name when big snake dad is here. Hm~~ How about calling you Guoguo? Guoguo, like it?”

“Oh oh~~” The little snake became happy again, hopping on Shu Jintian’s leg while holding the fruit. The unchewed fruit pieces could be seen in his widely grinning mouth.

How great, he also had a name that just belonged to him now!

Seeing the little snake’s childish smile, Shu Jintian couldn’t help smiling, something he hadn’t done in a long time. Guoguo then suddenly bit his mouth with his own slobbery mouth, and Shu Jintian’s face was covered in unknown liquid.

Shu Jintian froze. Afraid of the little snake being upset, he turned his head while little snake was unfocused and secretly wiped off the dripping saliva on his face, unable to help cursing in his heart, Fuck! Did all Spiritual Snakes have so much saliva?

Now that Shu Jintian had a fair little baby, he happily did not sleep the night, instead keeping watch as he played with little snake. It was only when the horizon gradually lightened and the forest had a mist did Shu Jintian walk back while carrying Guoguo.

Shu Jintian held Guoguo in one arm and climbed into the tree hole with the other. He unexpectedly saw Hong Zao still in the cave. When Hong Zao saw him, he seemed stunned.

【You’re back! Then rest well, I’ll go find some food.】 Hong Zao’s voice was cold, but he internally sighed in relief. He just knew Xiao Tian wouldn’t really leave. Fortunately he didn’t leave, otherwise… otherwise what? Just let a weak female get stuck in a dangerous forest alone. Right, exactly so!

When Shu Jintian saw that the merman was still in the cave, he didn’t know whether to enter or leave. Why was he still here? Could he have suddenly realised that being in the tree was better than living in the water? Did he like living in the tree cave now? But wasn’t he a fish? Was always running off to the dryland okay?

【I’m going.】 In any case, he couldn’t understand the female’s words, so Hong Zao did not wait for Shu Jintian to reply and left the cave.

Shu Jintian turned his head back only to see a streak of red hair drift through the dark green forest and instantly disappear.

“Be good, Guoguo, let’s sleep ba!” Shu Jintian warmly touched the baby’s head. Guoguo’s hair was soft and silky, and was very similar to Shu Hanyu’s, but now it was still a little more sparse and fine.

It was already the fifth day. Why wasn’t big snake here yet? Perhaps big snake didn’t think he would float to the center of the sea and was always looking for him by the shore. He had to figure out his own way to leave.

But this place didn’t have any tools at all, and there were very few trees that were more slender, so he decided to give up on this topic. It would be great if there was bamboo; he could try making a bamboo raft ah!

In any case, Shu Jintian firmly believed that Shu Hanyu was still perfectly alive. He didn’t dare imagine the opposite scenario, and also wouldn’t believe it.

In the end, Shu Jintian did not sleep for the entire night. Since he could not figure out any ideas, he decided to give in to his sleepiness, and soon fell asleep.

Guoguo had always been obediently staying in female father’s arms. Seeing that he had fallen asleep, he then gently crawled out of his embrace and secretly got out of the cave.

Fruits were just too yucky; he should find some edible food to wash away the taste ba!

In the lush forest, a shining white baby crawled on the ground on all fours, curiously walking and stopping, gazing around everywhere. He soon found an interesting food.

Guoguo rested on his stomach, silently approaching the prey. But him, used to his snake form, forgot his current form and startled it. He then saw the little Guan rat’s fur puff up all over and break into a run. Seeing his prey flee, Guoguo’s hunter nature led to him instantly pursuing after him with all his strength the instant his prey ran. His short limbs were swiftly crawling on the ground with a speed unexpectedly even quicker than the nimble little Guan rat. He soon shortened the distance between them. Guoguo found the opportune time and suddenly lunged at his prey, chomping on its neck. His rice grain-sized little teeth were incomparably sharp, and instantly pierced through the prey’s throat.

The Guan Rat flailed its little legs in its struggle, but soon lost its strength, its body physiologically twitching.

Guoguo smiled proudly, scarlet red Guan Rat blood sliding down the corner of his lips. Guoguo didn’t care at all. His mouth was opened to its widest, and his hands held the prey even larger than his hands and stuffed it in his mouth.

The little baby sitting on the ground gulped it down with bulging cheeks, and a slender little Guan Rat leg was still sticking out at the corner of his lips, twitching gently. It disappeared as he swallowed.

Guoguo smacked his lips, not fully satisfied, licking away the blood on his lips. It was still fresh food that was yummy. Since female father was asleep, then he’ll eat a bit more ba!

Guoguo then became lively in the forest, eating joyfully. It was only when a burst of rapid medium-to-large-sized beastman footsteps was heard that Guoguo was startled.

It seemed to be heading to the forest cave female father was sleeping in. Guoguo licked his fingers and swiftly crawled to the forest cave.

【Xiao Tian, wake up, wake up ah!】 Hong Zao frantically shook Shu Jintian, urging him awake.

“Eh? Why are you here?” Shu Jintian was sleeping very heavily, and still had not fully awakened yet.

Hong Zao simply picked Shu Jintian up, carrying him as he slid down the tree trunk.

“Ah! What are you doing?” Shu Jintian finally woke up. Suddenly realising that something was missing, he said in alarm, “Guoguo ne? Where did Guoguo go? Have you seen Guoguo? It’s little snake.”

In his anxiousness, Shu Jintian no longer bothered with the merman about the past, grabbing his arm and speaking in a fluster. There didn’t seem to be any shadow of Guoguo in the tree cave just now; they were clearly sleeping together, so how did he suddenly disappear?

【You’re talking about the little Spiritual Snake? I don’t know. Don’t worry, he’s a little male and won’t have any problems. You leave with me ba!】 Hong Zao shook his head to indicate that he did not know, then picked Shu Jintian up and ran to the blue water.

Before Guoguo had returned to the cave, he saw the red short-tail snake carry off female father, and hastily crawled after them.

“Bapbap~~ Ta ta ta da…” Baba wait for me, don’t throw away Guoguo ah… 

Guoguo swiftly ran while crying out ‘ah ah’. But his voice that hadn’t fully matured couldn’t produce loud enough sounds and was completely covered by the wind brought by the merman’s swift run. Shu Jintian couldn’t hear anything at all, and the merman just ignored it.

The tree cave Shu Jintian lived in was very close to the blue water shore, and it wasn’t even two minutes before the merman carried Shu Jintian to the beach.

“Stop, let me go! Where are you taking me? I want to find Guoguo!” Seeing that the merman wanted to take him to the water, Shu Jintian struggled with all his might.

He can’t leave, Guoguo is still here!

【Ss~】 Hong Zao sucked in a breath of cold air and seemed hurt, but still strode to the water without a change in pace.

Shu Jintian then realised that Hong Zao’s left arm seemed to be stabbed by a sharp weapon. The wound wasn’t large, but was deep enough to expose bone, and blood was slowly trickling out.

“You’re injured? How did it happen?” Shu Jintian couldn’t help his heart from trembling when he saw this, and truly didn’t dare flail about, afraid of hurting him.

Hong Zao’s heart warmed and his arms around the female tightened as he strode into the water. His legs swiftly turned into a red fishtail. As it swayed in the water, he shot out to a distance.

“No, Guoguo! Let me go, I want to find Guoguo!” Shu Jintian avoided Hong Zao’s injured part and forcefully resisted.josei

“Bapbapbap…” Papa don’t throw Guoguo away ah~

Guoguo’s legs were on the ground and he crawled swiftly. His fair butt was shaking, and turned in a very lively manner.

The little snake had just emerged from the forest when he saw female father and Hong Zao getting in the water, frightening him into hastily chasing after them with all his might.

Without any hindrance, Shu Jintian finally saw the little baby doing his best to crawl and felt so distressed his tears nearly fell.

“Wait, Guoguo’s coming.”

Hong Zao couldn’t tolerate Shu Jintian’s disturbance and stopped his tail this time, waiting a while. Just as the little snake was about to reach their side, he rapidly swayed his tail and cut through the water.

Guoguo wheezed tiredly as he spat out his forked tongue. He hadn’t gasped for air when female father was distanced from him once more, and he hastily chased after him again. His fair little body floated in the azure water, his limbs doggy-paddling in the water.

Shu Jintian stretched his hand and finally caught little snake’s chubby little hand, pulling him closer before letting out a heavy sigh of relief.

【What happened to you? Why do you want to leave this place and also bring me along? And how was your injury caused?】 They were already in the water and Shu Jintian no longer insisted on going ashore, one arm around Hong Zao’s neck while the other hugging Guoguo.

Hong Zao shook his head with a smile, swimming to the isle in his memories.

The Spiritual Snake clan truly was very strong. If it weren’t because he was injured, he might not necessarily have beaten him.

Guoguo finally stayed in his father’s arms and seemed as tired as a dog, too lazy to even move.

“Why did you disappear just now? You scared your papa to death, you know? In the future you can’t run around like this.” Guoguo’s bloody face was cleaned up by water, and Shu Jintian did not notice his peculiarity.

Guoguo was truly shocked to a daze, and kept nodding his head when hearing female father’s words. This male was truly annoying, actually wanting to kidnap female father while he was away. In the future, he had to be more careful. Fortunately, he discovered it very soon this time. Hu~ How dangerous ah!

Hong Zao swam with Shu Jintian for most of the day before reaching the shore of an overgrown island. This island was much larger than the last one they were in. The island was mostly rocks, and most were directly exposed. There weren’t any large trees, but with a distance between them were bushes growing in a haphazard manner, like a green popcorn. Not only were they fertile and tall, some were even ten metres tall like a small tree.

Baobao Notes

So you know how mandarin has four intonations? Little Guoguo is always saying baba, which is papa, but he’s always just the slightest off-tune. Hope I managed to make this work.
