Chapter 40 The eagle cub breaks out of its shell!
"What about you?"
The Duke leaned forward, and the approach of the golden vertical pupils made Yu Zhizhi's body immediately stiffen.
This is not the first close encounter.
However, tonight the Duke was much more indifferent than usual.
Although there is still a smile on his face.
"How many whips can your delicate skin take?"
Hiss——
As if to match the Duke's words, the black snake on his shoulder spat out a message.
Yu Zhizhi raised her hands and gently held the Duke's wrist. There was a hint of panic in her clear eyes, and she was a little aggrieved.
The little female of the rabbit tribe always uses this innocent face to make people happy.
The Duke loosened his fingers slightly, let her hold his palm, and leaned his cheek gently against her.
She blinked and said in a soft voice: "I'm hungry..."
The little female is acting coquettishly.
There was a hint of pity, a bit deliberate, and a bit clumsy in trying to change the subject.
It seems that this way he can forget what happened just now.
She should be punished.
The Duke felt the warmth on his cheek from the palm of his hand. His golden vertical eyes were deep and dark, and he watched intently as she tried her best to please him.
Yu Zhizhi gently held his cold palm, put her cheek against it, and rubbed it affectionately.
In the past, pets would be punished if they made mistakes.
——This was when the Duke was very patient.
Training means taking time.
And his time is valuable.
But the little rabbit came up pitifully, and the unhappy mood in his heart gradually dissipated.
He stroked the little female's face with his fingers, and said with a slight smile: "After dinner, I will settle this account with you."
He won't let her off so easily.
If pets are not well-trained, they will become more and more troublesome later on. When he loses his patience, the little pet will not end well.
The Duke withdrew his hand and walked towards the dining table in the other side of the room.
Yu Zhizhi followed.
She was really hungry.
In the afternoon, I only ate a few lychees. In order to wait for the guard captain Geo to change his shift, she had been sitting under the eaves in a daze.
Haven't eaten anything yet.
On the dining table, a lampstand made of candles burned quietly.
A table of delicious food.
The color is dimmed by candlelight.
The Duke sat down and looked at the little female following behind: "Come here."
Yu Zhizhi walked up to him.
The next second, he was pulled into the Duke's arms and sat sideways on his lap.
Her cheek almost touched the black snake on his shoulder. Yu Zhizhi's back immediately straightened, and her body became stiff uncontrollably.
The Duke glanced at Black Snake lightly.
The black snake slid along the other arm and disappeared into the darkness.
——The master’s meaning is very obvious.
Don't scare this little rabbit.
"I'm busy today and I don't have time to feed you. Have you had a good meal?" The Duke put his arm around her waist, picked up a piece of cucumber drizzled with salad dressing and brought it to her lips.
The little female ate slowly.
She nodded slightly: "Yes."
Yu Zhizhi was very full at every meal.
Tonight is a special occasion.
She was just wandering aimlessly in the Duke's Palace, saw the guards patrolling, and learned about the young talented guard captain Jie O from the maid's mouth.
I heard that he came to the Duke's Palace when he was sixteen years old. In just three years, he became the chief of the guard and was deeply trusted by the Duke.
The most important thing is——
Not only does he have outstanding abilities, but he is also very handsome and has a polite personality. There are many females in the Duke's palace who like him.
In Yu Zhizhi's heart, such a snake male can indeed be the second candidate for the main mission.
After all...the Duke's mind is elusive and difficult to capture.
With limited time, Yu Zhizhi had to complete the task as soon as possible. If it is delayed until the last few days and the timeout fails, it will be gone.
After eating the cucumber, she saw the spoon handed to her by the Duke and took a sip. It tasted like glutinous rice porridge.
Yu Zhizhi likes to eat glutinous rice. With a smile on her face, she holds the spoon in her mouth and swallows the food in her mouth.
The young female is very quiet while eating.
——Eat whatever you feed.
The rabbit family's recipes have been handed over to the chef, who is changing the tricks to make the food that the little rabbit likes to eat.
The Duke stared down at the little female in his arms.
Under the candlelight, she looked attentive while eating, her eyelashes cast a shadow, her nose was slightly raised, she occasionally raised her eyes to peek at herself, her cheeks holding the food were slightly bulging, she chewed slowly, and after finishing the porridge, she licked it Lick the remaining glutinous rice grains on the spoon.
Drink up a small bowl of porridge.
She raised her eyes and looked at the Duke, looking like she was asking for a compliment.
The rabbit female is a qualified pet and he really likes it. Except for the physical needs that she couldn't control.
He put down the spoon and wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin.
"I have no habit of raising orcs."
"They're so dirty."
"Except for this, I can satisfy you with everything else."
...this matter?
Yu Zhizhi's mind was stuck for a moment.
The Duke took a sip of tea slowly: "Other pets can keep two to keep each other company, but you can't do this. I only keep one."
Hmm.
Yu Zhizhi lowered his head. She was tired and leaned weakly in his arms.
Seeing that the little rabbit was wilting, the Duke gently stroked her head.
The anger in my heart has long since dissipated.
In fact, what happened today was not entirely her fault.
It is inevitable for pets to be in heat.
No matter what you raise, pay attention to it.
Smelling the sweet fragrance of the little female, he spoke softly: "Why don't I tell you two things that may interest you."
"What's going on?" Rabbit Ears moved curiously.
"Next week, members of the K family are coming to the Duke's Mansion as guests - are they the twin brothers? They seem to be very nice to you?"
K family——
The last time she saw them was on the high platform, two white wolves wearing vintage robes.
"Want to go back to the wolf den?" The Duke gently rubbed her rabbit ears.
"...No, I don't want to." Yu Zhizhi didn't hesitate much.
This is from my heart.
She originally planned to leave with Dracula.
Thinking of Dracula, he should have returned to Cangshan territory, right? He also said before that he would come find her one day.
"What's one more thing?" Yu Zhizhi asked.
The Duke said there were two things that would interest her.
As soon as she asked, she felt the hand on the rabbit's ear slowly lift up. He inserted his five fingers into her hair and gently stroked it down to the end.
Yu Zhizhi tilted her head slightly and felt his breath coming to her neck.
"There is news that the leader of Cangshan has received an eagle cub."
"The cub has just broken out of its shell. Looking back in time, it should have been when we were in the Imperial City—"
"Then the question is, who is pregnant with this eagle cub?"
Yu Zhizhi: "..."
She said nothing.
Seeing her look like a quail egg, the Duke understood.
The eagle risked his life to save her. Their relationship was extraordinary.
Unexpectedly, there were even cubs.
For a moment, the Duke didn't know what the heavy emotion in his heart was.
All he knew was that the little female had a period of estrus every month.
"It seems that I have to find a way to satisfy you."
