Tiger, I rejected the iron rice bowl.

After finishing his meal, he lay on the snow, still wanting more, slowly licking his paws and mouth, cleaning off every last bit of meat scrap.

After cleaning up, Wang Yuyu raised his head and subconsciously looked towards the wall, but it was already empty. Tang Li had long since left, and there was no one left to keep him company or talk to him.

His ears drooped down again, he sighed softly, and a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

Looking at the scattered chicken feathers on the ground, Wang Yu slowly stood up and used her paws to shovel the snow around her, burying the chicken feathers little by little.

After burying the chicken feathers, he swayed his body, crawled into the warm little wooden house, curled up in a corner, closed his eyes and began to doze off, secretly hoping that Tang Li would come back to be with him soon.

At noon, Tang Li tiptoed to the back door, quietly opened the iron gate, afraid that making too much noise would disturb Wang Yuyu inside the wooden house.

Wang Yuyu, who was dozing off at the door of the wooden house, caught the soft sound of the iron gate and his amber eyes snapped open, all sleepiness gone.

Upon seeing that it was Tang Li standing at the door, he instantly perked up, stood up abruptly, and rushed towards Tang Li with cheerful steps, letting out a soft growl from his throat, full of undisguised joy.

"Haha, a secure job, did you miss me?" Tang Li laughed and opened her arms to catch Wang Yuyu who was rushing towards her.

Although she was already used to his enthusiasm, his large body still carried considerable strength. Tang Li staggered back two steps, and finally couldn't hold on any longer, so she simply fell backward and sat down on the soft snow.

She didn't care at all, holding the warm tiger head in her arms, her eyes crinkling with laughter.

Wang Yu hugged Tang Li's waist affectionately, buried his fluffy head in the crook of her neck, rubbing against her vigorously, his nose tickling her neck, and his paws restlessly scratching at her arm.

"You're so heavy!" Tang Li wrapped her arms around his neck with some difficulty and scratched behind his ear.

Finally, unable to lift him any further, she could only let him wriggle around in her arms, laughing and scolding, "Why are you like a round, chubby pig? You can't hold him down at all!"

"Please don't move, let me hold you tight!"

She reached out and cupped Wang Yuyu's tiger head in her hands. Seeing his mouth stretched almost to his ears, his eyes narrowed into slits, and his face practically bursting with laughter, her heart melted. She couldn't resist leaning in and showering his furry face with several heavy kisses, her voice soft and sticky: "Haven't seen you for days, did you miss me terribly?"

As she spoke, she gently stroked his tiger head with one hand, sliding it down his glossy fur, while her other hand scratched his beloved chin, touching and kissing it, her eyes filled with infatuation.

She's a total plush toy lover, and this big, soft Siberian tiger is her absolute darling.

Wang Yu leaned comfortably against Tang Li's chest, closed her eyes, drooped her ears, and made low purring sounds in her throat, quietly enjoying this intimacy.

Tang Li inadvertently touched the dry twigs and grass clippings stuck to his back. She wrinkled her nose, reached out and gently patted his broad back to brush the grass clippings away, her tone slightly reproachful: "Look at all this dirt on you. Did you sneak into the woods again?"

"Can't you just stay in the open space, sunbathe, and watch cartoons? All you do is wander around aimlessly, getting yourself all dirty!"

"Awooo!" Wang Yuyu opened her eyes, let out two low growls, her tone tinged with grievance, and rubbed her head against her chest, as if to explain, "I didn't wander around, I just went to patrol the woods, how did I know I got grass clippings on my hands..."

As he spoke, his restless paws quietly reached out to Tang Li's pocket, gently tugging at the edge of the pocket, his eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Tang Li reacted quickly, grabbing his paw and lightly tapping its tip, laughing and scolding, "Don't rummage through my pockets, there's no food in there!"

"Where did you learn this bad habit from? Why are you sneaking around picking people's pockets?"

"That's not good. Don't do that again, okay?"

She held Wang Yuyu's tiger head in her hands, looked him intently into his eyes, her tone serious, but her eyes held a hint of amusement. "How could I not give you food? You're such a little glutton, all you think about is food all day long!"

"Let me tell you, don't do these sneaky things again. If I catch you picking someone's pocket again, I'll chop your paws off, and see if you dare to do it again!"

Tang Li deliberately put on a stern face and said some harsh words, but the doting in her tone was impossible to hide.

Wang Yuyu, however, paid no attention to her threat. He continued to laugh foolishly, rubbed his head against her palm, shook his head to break free from her hand, and then leaned in to kiss her again, his claws gently hooking her sleeve, looking like he was trying to get away with it by being cute.

"You knew you could get away with being cute!" Tang Li hugged him helplessly, muttering with a smile. Then, unable to contain her joy any longer, she buried her face deep in his fluffy, soft tiger fur, taking a deep breath. The faint, clean scent of his fur filled her nostrils, making her feel completely refreshed.

"Wow! That feels so good!" Tang Li looked up, her face full of ecstasy, her eyes practically floating, as if she'd just taken a drag. She exclaimed repeatedly, "Household Iron, how come you smell so good? You don't stink at all, instead you're soft and fragrant, it's so wonderful to inhale!"

"Awooo!" Wang Yuyu immediately raised her head proudly, wagging her tail even more enthusiastically, letting out a proud low growl, secretly boasting to herself, "That's right! I'm super clean!"

"It would never poop or pee in its den, and it grooms itself diligently every day, so how could it possibly smell bad?"

"You're the lucky one to get so close to me!"

"You're so cute!" Tang Li liked it more and more as she looked at it, holding the tiger's head in her hands and rubbing and sucking it vigorously, almost ruffling its fur.

Wang Yuyu was getting a little fed up with being pulled like that. She tilted her head slightly, forcefully freeing herself from the woman's grasp, and took a small step back. Her amber eyes were full of helplessness as she muttered to herself, "Ugh, can you please go easy on me? You're going to pull all my hair out! If you keep pulling, I'll be bald!"

"You need to remember you're a girl, not some pervert. Can you control yourself a little? Understand?"

He shook his head, smoothed out his ruffled fur, and looked like he'd been "completely wrecked," but he wasn't actually angry.

Seeing his pitiful and helpless expression, Tang Li laughed even harder, beckoning to him and saying in a seductive tone, "Why are you hiding? Come here, let me hug you again, just for a little while, I won't prick your fur, okay?"
