After coaxing the cubs to sleep, Xin Feng tiptoed over, took off his animal hide, and lifted the down quilt to slip in.
He encircled Bai Wanwan in his arms, just like he always did.
But today, Bai Wanwan wasn't already asleep as usual. She had been fighting off drowsiness, waiting for him.
Xin Feng reached out and pulled her closer. Bai Wanwan rolled over, her eyes wide open as she looked at him. "Those little rascals. It took them so long to fall asleep."
Her warm breath tickled his neck, making his own breath grow hotter.
He pretended like nothing was wrong and pulled the quilt up to cover her properly. "Once spring comes, they'll grow even stronger. They'll be gone in the blink of an eye, and we'll have to spend even more time watching them."
Bai Wanwan couldn't help but sigh. "Why is raising cubs so exhausting?"
'It's because we don't have enough Beast Husbands in the family,' Xin Feng knew. 'That's why we're so busy.' But he would never be the one to say it aloud.
