Tiger, I rejected the iron rice bowl.

Her gaze sharpened, her voice immediately lowered, and she said, feigning anger, "What kind of look is that? Are you looking down on me?"

"Let me tell you, this is a secure job. If you don't like it, then don't eat the food I give you!"

"You complain about the cook every day after you finish eating. Do you believe I'll stop bringing you food and treats and make you go hungry!"

"Awooo!" Wang Yuyu panicked immediately. His previous disdain and arrogance vanished without a trace. He quickly let out a low growl at Tang Li, his tone full of panic and ingratiation.

It stretched out its head and gently nuzzled Tang Li's cheek. The fluffy tiger's head tickled her, and she thought anxiously, "No, no! You can't not bring me food!"

"If you don't bring me food, who else will bring me such fresh venison and pork? I don't want to go hungry again!"

Seeing his instantly submissive, coquettish, and clingy demeanor, Tang Li's face immediately broke into a smug smile, and all her feigned anger vanished.

She leaned closer to Wang Yuyu, nuzzling him and gently scratching behind his ear, her tone tender yet teasing: "That's more like it! From now on, you have to maintain this attitude. Don't complain about me, don't argue with me, understand?"

Wang Yu nodded hurriedly, nuzzling his head even more affectionately against her chest, making soft purring sounds, appearing obedient as if to say, "I know I was wrong, I'll never complain about you again." But in his heart, he was still muttering, "Hmph, if it weren't for the delicious food, I wouldn't have given in!"

"Wait until I'm healed, then see if you dare threaten me like that again!"

He wouldn't admit it verbally, but his body language betrayed him; he clung tightly to Tang Li, refusing to budge an inch.

The two of them, one human and one tiger, rubbed and rubbed against each other for a while before Tang Li remembered her business and picked up her phone again to start browsing.

But the photos that popped up next were all nationally protected animals: snow-white snow hares, glossy foxes, gentle black bears, small musk deer, agile muntjacs, and so on. As they scrolled by, Wang Yuyu's eyes widened and drool involuntarily dripped from the corners of her mouth.

He had eaten almost all of these protected animals in the wild, and every photo evoked memories of his taste buds.

Especially when she saw the photo of the black bear, Wang Yuyu's eyes were instantly fixed, her ears perked up, her tail swayed gently, and she made a low whimpering sound, full of longing.

The last time he ate black bear meat was when he was wandering around this area. He passed through the territory of an adult Siberian tiger and, taking advantage of the tiger's inattention, secretly snatched a large piece of bear meat from its mouth.

For that one piece of tender and chewy bear meat, Wang Yu was chased a long way by that adult tiger, running until he was out of breath.

Even so, he didn't regret it. The black bear meat tasted really good. It was firm and chewy, and the more you chewed it, the more fragrant it became. It had a unique meaty aroma that was more than that of sika deer meat. It was one of the most delicious meats he had ever eaten.

As for the bear paw, he had taken a bite out of curiosity back then, but was greatly disappointed with the result.

Its bones are thick and hard, but the meat on them is pitifully little and covered in hair. It's tough and astringent to chew, and tastes awful.

It was nothing like the tender and juicy bear paw he had imagined, and he never touched it again after that.

Tang Li caught a glimpse of Wang Yuyu staring wide-eyed at a photo of a black bear, drool dripping from his mouth. She exclaimed in shock, her voice filled with astonishment: "A secure job! You...you've eaten black bear?! That's a black bear! You actually ate it!"

Wang Yu slowly withdrew her gaze, nodded slightly, her amber eyes filled with smugness. Her head was held high, almost reaching the sky, and her chest puffed out slightly, as if to say, "Of course! I'm amazing! I've even eaten a black bear! Praise me!"

Tang Li opened her mouth slightly, her eyes wide with shock as she stared at Wang Yuyu. It took her a while to recover. She reached out and gently stroked his furry tiger head, her voice full of admiration as she whispered, "My goodness, I never knew you'd hunted black bears! A secure job! You're amazing!"

Wang Yuyu didn't refute, still proudly holding her head high, wagging her tail even more enthusiastically, muttering to herself, "It's just a black bear, what's the big deal!"

"I'm much stronger now than I was when I was a homeless person!"

"It's good that we didn't encounter one. If we had, I would have hunted one down myself and shown you what I'm capable of!"

"It's just a little black bear; it's a piece of cake to handle!"

The more he thought about it, the more smug he became, his ears perked up even higher, looking utterly arrogant.

Tang Li's heart melted at his proud and smug little face. The more she looked at him, the more she liked him. She couldn't help but hug him tightly, kissing and stroking him, gently rubbing his fur while constantly saying, "How can you be so cute! So powerful and proud, you're just too lovable!"

Wang Yu felt extremely uncomfortable from her kisses, his head buzzing. He quickly stretched out a large, furry paw and shoved Tang Li's face away, shoving her away forcefully. Speechless, he muttered to himself, "Damn it! I painstakingly groomed my tiger fur this morning, and you've messed it all up!"

"If you keep kissing and touching me like that, my tiger fur will get all matted and tangled, and it'll take a lot of effort to clean it up. It's such a hassle!"

While complaining, he carefully used his other paw to comb the tiger fur on his head that Tang Li had messed up.

Tang Li's face was pressed down by his paw, but she didn't give up at all. She reached out and hugged his tiger paw, rubbing it gently against him, her tone full of flattery and excitement: "Oh, my secure job, don't do this!"

"Let me touch it again, just for a little while, okay? Just a tiny bit!"

"Get out of my way!" Wang Yuyu remained unmoved, still pressing her paw firmly against Tang Li's face, preventing her from getting any closer. "Don't even think about it, I absolutely won't let you mess with my tiger fur again!"

Tang Li struggled for a long time under his claws, but she couldn't shake off his obstruction. In the end, she could only give in helplessly and said aggrievedly, "I promise I won't kiss you anymore, and I won't touch you indiscriminately anymore. Please take your claws away, okay?"

"I swear, I really won't kiss you anymore. I'll just hold you quietly, okay?"

Wang Yu looked down at her, then stroked his groomed fur with his paw to make sure it was fluffy and smooth again. He slowly withdrew his paw, deliberately baring his sharp teeth at Tang Li and growling softly to scare her: "Remember what you said, you're not allowed to kiss me again, and you're not allowed to touch my fur randomly, or I'll bite you!"
