The wind grew in ferocity as it blew across the vast emptiness of the National Park. When it blew past the obstacle-filled Petrified Forest, it gave off a howling sound.
Li Du was still fast asleep, accompanied by the howling of the wind. All of a sudden, he felt someone push against him.
He instinctively used the back of his hand to push back before hearing a soft, anxious voice. ”Wake up. Quickly, wake up! There's a problem. Quick, wake up . . . ”
While sleeping in the middle of the night, suddenly hearing a woman's voice in his ear shocked Li Du. Is this a female ghost?
He automatically opened his eyes and looked ahead fearfully. Using the light in the tent, he managed to make out Sophie across from him and saw her similarly terrified expression.
After a few seconds of confusion, he responded, ”Oh oh, darling, you want to sleep with me tonight?”
”What?” Sophie was confused.
Li Du replied, ”It's fine. I just woke up and am still dazed. What's the matter? Time to start work? How long have I slept for? Felt like I only slept a while.”
Sophie nodded her head. ”You did just sleep for a while, not more than an hour . . . ”
”So why did you wake me up?” Li Du asked. Li Du, who was still unable to comprehend the current situation, asked in a perplexed tone, ”You want a hug?”
Sophie was so angry she could die. She raged, ”Want a hug? Are you crazy? Quick, get up! It looks like there's a wolf coming!”
Li Du was bold enough to say those words as he was still half asleep. However, hearing Sophie's words, he was wide awake and exclaimed, ”There's a wolf coming?”
Sophie nodded her head seriously. ”Yes, there's a wolf coming! I heard a wolf's cry. Also, take a look at the three kids!”
The three rascals were lying neatly at the entrance of the tent, sticking their heads out to take a look.
Li Du could only see their buttocks and was unable to see their expressions. Their tails were all tightly clamped below their behinds, especially Ah Ow, who looked like she was eager to stuff her small tail under her body.
He was puzzled by the sight. Normally, the three of them were used to being rebellious and spoiled. Consequently, Li Du had yet to see all three of them cower in fear at the same time.
They might not be frightened yet, but they were very anxious nonetheless.
Seeing how anxious they were, Li Du quickly stood up and prepared to go out to have a look at the situation. When his feet touched the ground, he realized he was barefoot and said curiously, ”I remember I was wearing my shoes when I slept.”
”You remembered wrong,” Sophie grumbled.
Li Du responded, ”Oh.”
Sophie was left speechless.
Noticing he was prepared to go out after taking the flashlight, Sophie held him back and in a soft voice asked, ”What are you doing?”
”I'm going out to take a look.”
Sophie replied, ”You want to go out there like this without any weapons? I'm telling you, I heard a wolf's cry!”
Li Du hastily slapped his face and said, ”I'm still not fully awake and was in a daze. Right, where're my crossbows? I have two . . . darn it, they are both in the truck!”
The sound of footsteps could be heard. Li Du, who was unaware of the situation, hurriedly pulled Sophie closer to him and embraced her.
Ah Meow and the other two, who were sticking their heads out of the tent to have a look, jumped back in. Someone outside tapped on the door of the tent and said, ”Boss, the situation doesn't look good.”
Hearing Big Quinn's voice, Li Du came out of the tent and saw that it was indeed him. Nonetheless, seeing his fierce-looking face at night nearly made Li Du attack him.
”What's the matter?”
