Chapter 337: Chapter 337: Xiao Ruiyuan’s Anger and Unexpected News (2)_1

Mo Yan’s mind raced with all sorts of guesses in the blink of an eye, each one impossible for him to accept.

The contented Maomao, who had been closing its eyes and enjoying being stroked, pecked at his hand in frustration, signaling him to concentrate.

Xiao Ruiyuan came back to his senses, his breath chilling as he tossed Maomao aside. Trying to console himself or for some other reason, he came up with a dignified excuse for why Mo Yan hadn’t replied to his letter: "She must have been delayed by something important and didn’t have time to reply. Just go back now, and if there’s no reply, don’t bother coming back."

The poor Maomao had been subjected to his master’s anger. It let out an unpleasant sharp scream, as it came to complain, not to be scolded.

The displeased Xiao Ruiyuan, devoid of any interest in Maomao’s feelings, sat back in front of his desk and began writing another letter. To convey his disappointment and draw her attention, he stubbornly wrote the words "Why didn’t you reply to my letter?" eighty-one times.

After letting the ink dry, Xiao Ruiyuan carefully folded the letter and placed it in the envelope. He patted the motionless Maomao, indicating it was time to go.

Maomao glared with eyes wide as if it were a statue under his pat. Having flown there in the afternoon and back in the evening without rest or food, it had no strength left—it did not want to fly!

Unexpectedly, the little creature threw a tantrum. Xiao Ruiyuan was about to give it a stern lesson, but seeing its damaged tail and the patches of missing feathers, he gently touched the hollow spot on Maomao’s neck, realizing it hadn’t eaten, and thus had a guard bring some raw meat for it.

But she was so kind—why didn’t she feed the harrier? Was it the harrier that made her angry, or was it the letter that upset her?

Xiao Ruiyuan dismissed the latter thought automatically, his gaze as sharp as a sword fixed on Maomao, which was hungrily awaiting its meal.

Maomao shrank its neck, suddenly feeling cold. Humph, it must be because too many feathers were plucked. Just wait—it will have its revenge!

The raw meat, neither fresh nor soft enough to swallow easily, was reluctantly shredded and swallowed by Maomao, which longed for the fresh delicious chicken from the Mo Family and the energizing Spirit Spring Water.

Having barely filled its stomach, Maomao still didn’t want to leave. Its body was exhausted, and its spirit shattered. It needed a good sleep, so it hopped onto Xiao Ruiyuan’s resting couch. With wings tucked, legs drawn in, and body slack, it fell asleep immediately.

Although Xiao Ruiyuan was eager to have Maomao deliver the letter, seeing how exhausted it was, he couldn’t bring himself to wake it. He withdrew his hand and continued to review the reports from the front at his desk.

In the military tent, tranquility was restored, with only the occasional rustling of pages being turned...

...

Mo Yan hemmed and hawed for a long while, carefully crafting her reply. After reviewing it over and over, ensuring there was nothing inappropriate in the content, she folded it neatly and stretched contentedly.

Opening the door, she went under the eaves to send the letter with Maomao. After calling for it several times and getting no response, she assumed it had gone out to play and didn’t think much of it. When the third watch of the night passed and she couldn’t keep her eyes open, she dragged the dozing Mao Tuan under the desk into the Space, took a bath, and threw it onto the bed.

Mao Tuan’s eyes half-open, it snuggled up to her as soon as Mo Yan got into bed, clinging to her like a koala, and rubbed its fluffy head against her face before closing its eyes and falling peacefully asleep.

Mo Yan chuckled as she touched its head, holding its increasingly large body somewhat helplessly. She had already built a wooden house for it, placed alongside those of Little Flower Dabai, thinking it could sleep alone from now on. However, it seemed accustomed to sleeping with her and refused to do otherwise. Shutting it outside resulted only in disturbing her own and the other two pets’ sleep with its complaints.
