Su Yu nodded with a smile. "Of course, you can."
Shi Wei strode toward her, wanting to take her from Xun Yu's arms. But as he got closer, he remembered he hadn't bathed yet today.
He had been out hunting and then to the market to sell chilled skewers; his body was covered in dust.
He stopped in his tracks. "Yu Yu, wait for me a moment."
Before Su Yu could say anything, Shi Wei turned and hurried away. His agile figure slowly transformed into a giant black wolf, vanishing from her sight in the blink of an eye.
Su Yu let out a surprised "Hey," a little exasperated. "Why did he run off?"
Xun Yu didn't speak, his body still tense. He looked down at her and said, "Yu Yu, should we have the witch doctor take a look just in case?"
He'd never had a female partner, so he had no idea if it was normal for the cub in a pregnant female's belly to move.
He was afraid something was wrong with Su Yu's health.
