Chapter 148
Chapter 148
Under the moonlight.
Standing on the mountaintop, looking down into the distance, one could see the myriad lights of humanity.
One by one, wolves howled and roared as they charged out of the forest.
Shang Xi lay on Gu Wen's back, curiously looking around, wondering where the entrance was.
In the next moment, the riding giant wolf raised its massive claws and scratched into the dark air, pulling out something like a door, which opened as he gracefully leaped inside.
Instantly, Shang Xi felt as though she had entered daytime.
She widened her eyes, surveying her surroundings. There were no flowers, trees, sun, moon, or wind—only endless whiteness, like a white desert.
To the right of the entrance, there was something like a luxurious cruise ship? Three levels high, with visible windows and red flags.
Was that...
The transportation they would be taking later?
She looked down, watching Gu Wen step on the white grains, each the size of rice grains, crystal clear.
Just like rice.
Gu Wen carried them forward a few steps, and the ground rustled beneath their feet. Then, the howling came from behind as more and more giant wolves leaped out of the door.
Gu Wen crouched down, and as Shang Xi held her son, they slid down, landing on the ground. Shang Xi stepped on the loose sand and squatted down, grabbing a handful.
Taking a closer look.
"So, they're small stones."
The wolf cub also seemed curious, turning its wolf eyes around, then... its chubby short paws sank into the sand, and it howled in alarm, jumping as if afraid of being swallowed.
Jumping two meters high, the moment Gu Wen transformed into human form, his chest was bumped by the wolf cub.
He reached out and grabbed the cub's bulging belly, bouncing it in the air, lips twitching meaningfully.
The wolf cub howled discontentedly.
Shang Xi hurriedly said, "He just finished eating, don't bounce him."
Gu's mother called out, "Cub, come to grandma quickly, good cub!"
As soon as Gu Wen let go, the cub ran, rushing into grandma's arms.
Gu's mother effortlessly held the sixty-pound wolf cub, her gaze soft and indulgent, kissing it several times. "Come, come, be with grandma, your wolf father is very annoying, isn't he?"
The cub nodded vigorously. "Awoo, awoo!"
"Good cub, let's ignore him."
Shang Xi smiled, withdrawing her gaze. Her son was getting more and more familiar with his grandparents; he knew who truly cared for him.
It's good, as a mother, she hoped her son would receive love from all family members.
"Gu Wen, is that the transportation we're going to take?" Shang Xi pointed at the ship-like object, asking.
Gu Wen murmured in agreement, unconcerned about what the wolf mother and cub were talking about. He held Shang Xi's hand, looking down at her. "Why not call me husband anymore? Isn't that what you humans call your partners?"
"It sounds quite nice." Gu Wen smiled gently, seeming to savor it for a moment.
"Say it again? Hmm?"
"Actually... most of the time, we just call each other by name." Shang Xi felt that it was no big deal to address each other casually, but being stared at so intently by this person, waiting for her to immediately speak up, made her feel a bit embarrassed.
Clearly...
A very ordinary term of address, but when he said it like that, when he looked at her like that, it felt quite... something.
She moved her lips.
The curve of Gu Wen's mouth became even more unrestrained: "Go ahead, call me, wife."
Shang Xi: "..."
She...
She refused to call him!
This guy was teasing her.
She clicked her tongue, turned around, and said, "Let's go."
Gu Wen followed her leisurely, his tone lazy, drawing out his words: "Wife."
"Wife."
"Wife."
As he called her like this, the other werewolves all looked over, whispering softly, "Damn, the Alpha is teasing the wolf."
"Wow, having a mate is impressive."
Shang Xi's ears burned, she turned abruptly, glaring at him, lowering her voice: "There's nothing going on, why call me that?"
Gu Wen chuckled, "I'm calling you my wife, legally speaking, my human wife."
Since Shang Xi admitted she liked him and agreed to be with him, there hadn't been a single day he wasn't happy.
No matter how angry Shang Xi got, no matter how she glared or scolded him, he found it adorable.
Adorable, so adorable.
Everything about her was adorable.
His heart was melting for this woman.
The couple's room was on the third floor, with a bed, bathroom, sofa, and bookcase inside.
This big guy somehow designed it so that they didn't sink into the loose sand, but instead walked smoothly, moving quickly, like a gust of wind.
They didn't feel any bumps in the room.
Days passed one by one.
The weather was getting colder and colder.
Shang Xi didn't even go to the second floor to play anymore, preferring to stay in bed all the time.
Gu Wen held a storybook, telling her stories.
Baby Shang hugged a rabbit doll, already asleep on the side, with rosy cheeks.
Finally...
Half a month later, they arrived.
Shang Xi wore a furry hat and scarf, dressed warmly, looking at the snowy scenery outside the window.
Snowy peaks rose up, sharp and high, stretching endlessly, just like the Myriad Peaks Forest in the human world.
Oh, should this be called the Snowy Peak Forest?
Gu Wen also spoke up, introducing to her, "This is the Snowy Peak Forest. There are wolf packs living in each snowy peak."
Shang Xi widened her eyes, "So that's how it is."
"What about those snowy mountains?"
Gu Wen said, "The left and right are both snowy mountains."
Shang Xi was puzzled, looking up, her eyes showing confusion, "The white on the left? I can't see the outline of the mountain at all?"
Hearing this, Gu Wen couldn't help but smirk, finding Shang Xi a bit silly.
"Why can't you see the mountain?" He teased, staring at her affectionately, asking softly.
Baby Shang rubbed her eyes, staring at the snowy mountains, he saw nothing but white, but no matter how she looked up, she couldn't see the top, she frowned slightly: "So tall."
Shang Xi exclaimed, suddenly understanding.
"So it's because we're too small."
The snowy mountains on the left and right towered into the clouds, like a white mist, they overlooked and guarded the Snowy Peak Forest, giving people a sense of peace and awe.
Shang Xi couldn't quite describe what she was feeling, was it an illusion? Whenever she gazed at the snow-capped mountains, she felt a profound sense of relaxation and contentment.
Baby Shang stared at the snow-covered mountains on both sides and let out a quiet howl.
In the next moment, the snow-capped mountains, which had appeared like white mist, revealed a layer of faint rainbow colors, incredibly beautiful.
"Wow! Mommy, look!" Baby Shang exclaimed excitedly.
Shang Xi's eyes lit up with amazement. "So beautiful."
The sound of wolves boiling with excitement came from below.
"How beautiful!"
"Wow! The last time I saw a snow rainbow was when I was a cub."
"So lucky to come back and see the snow rainbow this time!"
In the center of the snowy peak forest, there was the largest snow peak.
Ascending along the snow ladder, at the halfway point, there was a woman dressed in white. She had long, straight black hair draped behind her, her snow-white face already showing faint wrinkles, her gaze resembling the silent sea.
She gazed at the snow-capped mountains and murmured softly, "You're still the same."
The cubs have returned.
New members have returned.
The snow mountains welcome new life.
