Su Ce has some doubts in his mind, but Tan Tu’s face already turned blue with Ai Guo’s “hot” eyes.

Tan Tu continued to lose face in front of Ah Ce. Tan Tu ignored the twins and said to Su Ce, “Ah Ce, shall I take you to the tribe first? It’s also dangerous for Ai Guo and Ai Mi outside.” He was being careful on his attitude, lest Su Ce changed his mind.

From his voice, Su Ce heard that the two newly appeared were children. He remembered the previous experience and agreed with Tan Tu, he buried his doubts in his heart and said, “Okay, let’s go in quickly.”

Aiya! The female said to go in quickly!

Tan Tu was as happy as if he was about to jump up. Does this mean Ah Ce doesn’t regret having the twins at all? Thinking of this, Tan Tu grabbed Su Ce and frowned at the twins, “Ai Guo-er, don’t make such a fool of yourself. You and Ai Mi are so fragile. Go back quickly.”

With his hands behind his back, Ai Guo smiled and asked, “Will you send us back?”

“You did not abide the <Female Protection Code>,” Tan Tu said calmly, “You went out of the tribe without permission. I will take you directly to the Patriarch.” He saw Ai Guo’s eyes remained on Su Ce and continued, “Ah Ce is going to stay in our tribe. I was going to explain the situation to the Patriarch, which was on my way.”

Ai Guo pouted and hopped up on Su Ce’s side, bending down sideways and smiled, “So your name is Ah Ce. What a nice name!” He finished, holding Su Ce’s hand.

On the other side, the quiet and well-behaved Ai Mi who always stayed behind his twin, moved over and shyly holding Su Ce’s other hand.

Ai Guo laughed, “Brother Ah Ce, Ai mi-er likes you!” He hugged Su Ce’s arm and rubbed his face with it, “Ai Guo also like you.”

Ai Mi learns the same action as his brother and whispers, “I like...”

The twins really seem to like Su Ce very much. The pink cub and the slender female standing together, this kind of picture can make any male feel good—except for Tan Tu.

When Ai Mi stumbled over, Tan Tu’s big and and strong male was pushed aside—Ai Mi was too persistent and weak, Tan Tu would definitely hurt him if he didn’t get out of the way immediately!

Tan Tu looked at his hand, remembers the soft touch on his palm. His face turned dark. Even if all the males in the tribe found the twins cute, he didn’t even think so at all!

On the other side is Su Ce’s feelings. After waking up from the lake, he encountered creatures other than Tan Tu for the first time...

Now that his vision is blurred. He could feel deeply that he is being held by two very soft little guys.

In fact, Su Ce lived for more than twenty years and was always isolated from children. When he was in the orphanage, because he was silent, no companion was willing to play with him.

After being adopted, they lived in the highest floor building in the city and were surrounded by office workers. They were in a hurry every day, never willing to stay and never wasted time communicating with their neighbors.

After going to school, he wanted to study hard to repay his adoptive parents kindness. He never played games with his classmates.

When he grew up, he entered the student union of the University and met a very enthusiastic Senior... but the Senior wasn’t a child either.

Until after work, he had to work hard for the Senior. He was busy from dawn to dusk. Only recently did he got on track. Then now, he was brought to this place. And unfortunately, he lost his glasses.

Su Ce didn’t expect he could still touch this kind of weak life that he always thought to be isolated from himself.

The twins pulled Su Ce from left to right and led him forward, which was different from the security brought by Tan Tu. Even if he had two, Su Ce still felt frightened.

In a blurry vision, Su Ce not only lost his ability to recognize but also had a more sensitive sense of touch. At the same time, the soft little palms made his fear of life more and more profound—he was almost afraid.

The female was originally the weaker side of the Orc tribe, while the cubs was more on vulnerable side. Their steps were very slow.

For Su Ce, such a small step undoubtedly helped him and made him less embarrassed.

The twins didn’t see Su Ce’s quandary. They just chirped at each other— or rather, they chirped at each other while Ai Mi nodded from time to time. They looked at Tan Tu with a kind of proud and curious eyes and saw that he followed the female named Ah Ce with his solemn face. But because of the presence of the two of them, he could not reach the closest position next to Su Ce whether left or right. How interesting!

After another walk, it’s near the entrance of the tribe. The twins looked at each other. Ai Guo let go first and Ai Mi did the same thing. They were always good at joking, and were happy to see the bustle of Tan Tu, who doesn’t know how to please the females. But joking shouldn’t be too much.

Ah Ce is the female brought back by Tan Tu. Must be also bring by him to the Patriarch himself— if Tan Tu loses the priority to pursue Ah Ce because of them, they will surely feel guilty!

While Tan Tu on the corner was still worried. Although, Ah Ce came to the tribe because of his invitation, if the two females would led him into the tribe, the identity of the invited person would be recorded on the twins. And Tan Tu himself would lose the priority to pursue Ah Ce... How could Tan Tu, who has already regarded Ah Ce as a lifelong partner accept it?

Fortunately, the twins returned Ah Ce to him in time.

Tan Tu stepped up to Su Ce and took his hand as soon as the twins let go.

Su Ce could feel the man’s fingers were strewn with solid cocoons and faintly revealed hard bones inside... These are absolutely powerful hands, so powerful that they could tear a tiger apart!

Strangely, Su Ce’s cautious mood suddenly became a bit more stable.

Indeed, he really trust this lion man named Tan Tu.

Tan Tu didn’t notice Su Ce’s delicate thoughts. He finally pulled the female’s hand and led him... into his own tribe... his world.

He was filled with joy and involuntarily accelerated his pace.

Su Ce didn’t pay attention to this. The consequence of the sudden speed increase was his unstable footsteps. Maybe he tripped his right foot with his left foot. Maybe he stepped on the root of the tree or something. Su Ce rushed forward and tripped—he was picked by Tan Tu.

Tan Tu found something was wrong.

“Ah Ce...” Tan Tu put his hands on Su Ce’s shoulders, looked him up and down carefully and found that he was not injured. He relaxed and moved his gaze to him, “You...”

There’s something missing...

Su Ce heard the hesitation in Tan Tu’s voice and guessed the big man’s thoughts. He stretched out his fingers and pushed on the bridge of his nose.

Tan Tu then realized, “Ah Ce, the strange thing is missing on your nose!”

Su Ce nodded calmly, “So, I can’t see clearly now.”

Tan Tu was surprised and came closer to his face. It seemed that Su Ce’s eyes were...hazy? His face turned red. Then spurned himself in his heart.

He wants to see what happened to his eyes and why he got that kind of... well, a very special look... Tan Tu felt that he was more attracted to Ah Ce.

Su Ce lifted a finger on Tan Tu’s forehead and pushed him back firmly, “...Don’t be so close.” Even if he was highly myopia, but in such a close distance, he could see the enlarge face of Tan Tu. And the heat he exhaled made his face itchy.

Tan Tu made an “oh” sound. He stepped back obediently and then asked, “Ah Ce, your eyes...does it hurt? You were fine, why couldn’t it see clearly now?”

Of course, Su Ce wouldn’t be stupid enough to explain to a lion what “glasses” is. He just said, “I was hurt. What you said about “strange thing” has therapeutic effect, but you just ran too fast and it was lost by the wind.”

Tan Tu’s head dropped. He was desperate for himself. Since meeting Ah Ce, nothing has been done right...

Su Ce felt the downturn of Tan Tu’s atmosphere, he paused for a moment and said, “...I don’t blame you.”

Then found that the other party was again perking at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In addition to Su Ce’s sentence, Tan Tu came up with a good way to make up!

He quickly said to the twins who were watching the scene of bustle, “Go to the Patriarch place by yourself.” He picked up Su Ce and said, “I know a kind of grass that works! I’ll take you to the Patriarch first then go find the herbs!” Then he ran away like a fly.

The twins who had just stood in the tribal entrance stared at each other again.

Ai Guo shrugged. “It looks like Tan Tu is getting married soon.”

Ai Mi nodded gently, “En...”
