C228 (1/2)

The Leopard seemed to be annoyed by Yao Yuan's question, and directly placed a claw on Yao Yuan's shoulder and said.

”Aren't you asking too many questions?”

Maybe because he felt that his body was not in too much danger, Yao Yuan spoke more frequently on a whim.

Seeing the impatient expression on the Leopard, Yao Yuan laughed. Even if he stopped the topic and turned to look at the Leopard: ”Then what do you plan to do in the future?”

Yao Yuan realized that talking with Leopard was still pretty good. At least, it made people's heart comfortable when they spoke with it, so there wasn't much animosity between them. Although the Leopard in front of him looked like an animal speaking with a human, it was actually like a child.

”I'll follow you.”

The Leopard's words were direct, causing Yao Yuan to feel extremely shocked.

”You're not joking, are you?”

Yao Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he had never thought about this kind of thing. Although he didn't know the true identity of this Leopard, just looking at it from the Mount Li's perspective, one would think that this Leopard was definitely not simple.

Such a mysterious ”person” taking the initiative to say that he wanted to follow him, Yao Yuan wouldn't believe it even if he was beaten to death.

The Leopard seemed to want to prove its innocence and ran up to a big tree not far away. From the looks of it, it seemed to be the tallest tree in the entire forest, and in a few seconds, it ran down from the tree with a letter in its mouth.

After Yao Yuan received the letter, the Leopard immediately followed up: ”Although I don't know how I recognized these words, when I opened my eyes, this letter was right beside me. It should have been written by my parents, they told me to follow you.”

Hearing the Leopard's words, Yao Yuan was skeptical for a moment. He slowly opened the envelope and started to read it carefully.

It did not say much. It only said that the Leopard should take good care of itself and not try to leave. After a few years, the first human that saw it would follow him.

Yao Yuan was extremely shocked, as though the reason Liu Neng had brought him back home to be his son-in-law was all because of fate.

Was this really his fate?

Yao Yuan could not help but laugh bitterly.

The words seemed to be said like it, but Yao Yuan did not dare to believe it too much as there had been such an example before. However, when he saw the look of anticipation in the Leopard's eyes, Yao Yuan could only nod and say: ”Alright, from today onwards, follow me.”

On the Leopard's body, there seemed to be a lot of questions. After all, how did one live alone for so long, why did they speak the human language the moment they were born, understand the human language, etc., but there were still plenty of time.

When he knew that Yao Yuan had promised to bring him out, the Leopard became extremely happy and directly threw itself into Yao Yuan's embrace, rubbing its head against Yao Yuan's face non-stop, making the latter's face itch.

”Alright, alright, let's stop messing around. Let's go out now.”

Yao Yuan inexplicably accepted a pet. The most important thing was that this pet could speak human language, and there were no obstacles in the way of communication.

From the Leopard's mouth, Yao Yuan knew that in this small forest, other than the Leopard itself, there were no other living beings. It could basically be determined that there were no substantial threats.

Bringing the Leopard out of the small forest, they returned to Miao Ling's side.

When she saw Yao Yuan coming out, Miao Ling seemed especially excited. Just as sshe was about to ask Yao Yuan about the situation inside, he suddenly realized that there was already a leopard following him.
