——————

"Brother Wei Min, you watch the front, I’ll watch the back, Brother Bin you watch the side forest, Brother Ting you three hurry up and light the torches, don’t waste time! If my mom really finds out I’m gone, we’ll have no adventure left!"

Zhou Guoqing said this while bossing people around.

"Adventure my ass, we’re clearly ’serving the people’! You little rascal don’t talk nonsense, am I right, Brother Wei Min?" Xie Jingbin glared angrily at the boy and snorted.

"Mmm!" Zhou Weimin naturally supported the reasonable side.

Xie Yuting just got straight to the point, he kicked Zhou Guoqing on the ankle and said sternly, "Little rascal, instead of learning a few more characters, all you think about is playing. If you bring home another thirty percent on your test, let’s see if your dad won’t beat you!"

"Brother Ting, exposing people’s weakness is bad form!" Grades had always been Zhou Guoqing’s sore spot; he couldn’t stand anyone mentioning it.

"I’m worried about your brain! Clearly, when it comes to playing, your brain works like a monkey’s, but the moment you pick up a pen, why do you turn into a ’useless mud’?!"

"I said, exposing people’s weakness is bad form, and yet you still say it!"

"Alright, stop arguing, I think I hear a low growl of a wild beast!" Xie Jingbin interrupted their quarrel and called out sharply.

"Then open your dog eyes and be alert, let’s hurry up," Xie Yuting said quickly when he heard the Boss say so.

Now, he was surrounded by the three men, holding two wooden torches himself, with two others holding matches, starting a fire on the hay, tree scent, and twigs they had piled up.

"Stinky egg, what are you talking about!" Zhou Guoqing immediately cursed back when he heard this.

"That’s it, stop the bickering, or you two might as well pack up and go home." Xie Jingbin, seeing the two were not taking advice, spoke angrily.

"Hiss, what is that?" Just as Zhou Guoqing was about to admit his mistake, his gaze flickered and he jumped at the sight of a flashing green light!

"Don’t panic, take a clear look at—" Xie Jingbin hadn’t finished speaking when he heard a scream from behind him.

"Ah!"

Just as Zhou Guoqing noticed a strange low howling noise approaching, he was suddenly startled by the onrushing green bead, directly raising his hoe for a swing!

The small green-eyed beast charged at him, was struck by Zhou Guoqing with a swing, knocking it several meters away, then the scent of blood on the hoe began to disperse.

"Woo, awoo—" The injured green bead whimpered and then howled to the sky.

"Damn, it’s, it’s a wolf cub!" Xie Yuting had already lit a great torch and illuminated the area, clearly seeing the injured little wolf on the ground!

"What?" Zhou Guoqing was startled for a moment, snatched the torch lit by another person, and held it high—

Indeed, seeing the animal on the ground resembling a dog, with big green eyes glaring at them defensively and growling.

"Quick, light all the torches! We, we..." Zhou Jingbin snatched the torch held by Zhou Guoqing while staring in the direction where the wolf cub came from—

In their short, panicked half-minute, several large wolves had already been summoned by the wolf cub’s howling!

"What, what do we do!" The group huddled over the fire, Zhou Weimin had already wisely gathered all the ignitable twigs and weeds around, the two others seeing this, also quickly followed suit.

"Awoo—" The low growl from the wolf cub called several wild wolves over.

"Dad, you and mom are alright?" Yan Jinsu, seeing her father-in-law with a flashlight, sped up even more.

"We’re fine, go back to the main room; your mom is worried." Xie Tiesheng said, seeing the children were still asleep, he reassured in a soft voice:

"Let’s just stay in the main room tonight, otherwise, your mom won’t be at ease."

"Alright, I was thinking the same."

As they spoke, the two reached the front courtyard, and at that moment, lights flickered from the east wing. Not long after, Xie Jingwei came over with his wife and child.

"That’s good, having the family together makes it safer, come in."

Xie Tiesheng, seeing his eldest son about to speak, cut him off and led everyone into the main room.

At this time, the lights inside were already on. Zhou Xiuhua also couldn’t sleep anymore, and even lifted the curtain of the inner room door, allowing her to see inside directly.

"Everyone’s here now, that’s good. Have some water and calm down, especially the children, don’t get frightened." Zhou Xiuhua, seeing her eldest son with his wife and child, immediately had moist eyes.

No matter what misdeeds Tie Dan had committed before, in his heart, parents and wife and children were equally important, and that was enough.

"Dad, big brother, you guys hold down the fort, I’ll go get some hot water from the stove, this water definitely won’t be enough."

"Jingchen’s wife, no need for you to go, I’ll go!" Xie Jingwei, although a bit nervous, couldn’t let a woman look after their whole family, his face wasn’t that thick.

Saying this, without waiting for a reply, he took the flashlight and iron rod and went out.

With the electric lights on, even if wolves came, they wouldn’t dare rush in, and the family’s hearts settled a bit.
