167 The Wolf cubs (2/2)

” You can take your time, but try to give me an answer soon.” Lidan was in no rush and simply shrugged his shoulders.

” I will be leaving now.” Xia Lian exited the room hurriedly.

' Little sister, this time big brother will protect you with his life…' Lidan swore in his heart as he stared at her disappearing back.

Xia Lian was still in a daze and if not for Lu Wen she would have stumbled many times and her nose would have turned crooked beyond recognition. She was beyond tired with all the events that happened today and she fell into a deep slumber as soon as her back hit the bed.

Next day morning…

Xia Lian was leaning against the armrest of her chair as she was thinking about Lidan's proposal. If he provides her with the capital, she was sure that she would be able to start new businesses in no time. It was a good proposal. Lidan seemed to be trustworthy and she knew that such gut based impressions might be detrimental in the business world.

But there are no gains without risks and risks are what one should be ready to take at any time. So, she decided to agree to his proposal.

” Brother Lu Wen, inform the Black Dragon Auction House that I agreed to their proposal.” Lu Wen disappeared out of the room immediately after making a sound of agreement.

” Big brother, hurry and come outside…” Xia Lian walked towards the window and saw her little bunny waving his hand at her excitedly. His other hand was pointing towards the cage which the auction house sent them now.

The kid is so excited about the wolf cubs… Xia Lian had a wide smile on her face as she hurried downstairs.

Xia Lian patted on the little one's head as she crouched down before the cage. She saw a pair of angry black eyes staring back at her. Xia Lian's face fell immediately on seeing the protective older snow white wolf glaring at her.

This was bad! She screamed in her heart. Then she stared at the little wolf which was lying unconscious. Now she understood why this big sister wolf was so angry. Those hunters must have done something to the little one making it unable to move. She can cure the little wolf, but to do so she had to open the cage.

Once she opened the cage, she was sure that this big wolf will pounce upon her and tear her down into pieces. She contemplated over whether she should use a tranquiliser or not and decided against the idea. The big wolf was already hostile towards her, what if the wolf becomes mad and hunts her down after it wakes up…

This was becoming too troublesome… The little wolf is important at the moment, even if it means to fight with the big wolf she must open this cage.

” Fan Ling, sit on the tree with little Ming. No matter what happens, don't come down.” she then turned to her brother ” Believe in me and don't freak out and jump off from the tree at any cost.”
