Tiger, I rejected the iron rice bowl.

Then, Wang Yu quickly squatted down in front of Tang Li, his amber eyes filled with anger as he glared at her, his ears drooping in anger, and his tail swishing impatiently, causing the ground to tremble slightly.

"You restless sleeping woman!"

Wang Yuyu's anger and resentment were intertwined. "I've already been very kind of you by letting you hold me while I sleep, to keep you warm!"

"And you went even further, not only pulling my fur, but pulling out several hairs, and then daring to slap me when I woke up!"

"I'm really angry!"

"Don't even think about hugging me again, and don't even think about petting my fur. I'm never talking to you again!"

As he spoke, he lowered his head and looked at the places on his body that Tang Li had pinched, as well as a few tiger hairs that had fallen to the ground. He stuck out his tongue and carefully licked the places that had been pinched. His expression was one of wanting to cry but having no tears, both angry and pitiful.

Tang Li sat on the small quilt, her eyes vacant, still reeling from the nightmare. Her mind was blank, and she muttered to herself:

"Who am I? Where am I? Wasn't I lying in bed sleeping? How did I end up on the floor? Did I just... slap my job offer?"

It took her a while to calm down before her muddled mind gradually cleared. She subconsciously looked down at her palms.

He was startled to find a few tiger hairs clutched in his palm. A jolt of fear jolted him awake, and he thought to himself, "Holy crap! I actually plucked the tiger's fur and slapped him? I'm doomed!"

She cautiously raised her head, meeting Wang Yuyu's furious eyes. Her cheeks flushed instantly, and she awkwardly forced a smile, secretly hiding the tiger fur in her hand under her bottom, pretending nothing had happened, while silently praying:

"You can't see me! You can't see me!"

"Awoo!"

Seeing this, Wang Yuyu immediately growled softly, his amber eyes fixed on Tang Li's subtle movements, indignantly thinking, "Don't think you can cover up your crimes by hiding the tiger's fur!"

"You think I'm blind to do these underhanded things right in front of me?"

Tang Li felt a chill run down her spine under his gaze, her smile freezing even more. She quickly pretended not to understand his growl, reaching out cautiously to touch his tiger head, trying to change the subject:

"A secure, iron rice bowl? Are you hungry?"

"Shall I get you something to eat?"

"It's all my fault, I shouldn't have made you angry. How about I get you your favorite dried meat?"

"Roar!" Wang Yu was truly angry this time, letting out a sharp growl as he leaned forward, staring intently into Tang Li's eyes:

"Tang Li, don't even think about changing the subject!"

"We're talking about you hitting me and pulling my hair, it has nothing to do with the food! You have to apologize to me today!"

Tang Li trembled at his shout, her eyes darting around, unable to meet his gaze. Her mind raced, and suddenly she remembered she had a mild concussion. She immediately covered her head, frowned, and deliberately let out a painful cry:

"Ouch! My head is spinning again, it hurts so much... I can't take it anymore, I need to lie down and rest, otherwise I'm definitely going to faint!"

As she spoke, ignoring Wang Yuyu's anger, she used both hands and feet to crawl into the quilt next to her, wrapping herself up tightly with only her head sticking out. She remained motionless in the quilt, acting like a coward.

"Tang Li! Do you think I'm stupid? Can't you tell you're faking it?"

Wang Yuyu lashed out with his tail in anger, the ground trembling slightly. "You've been awake for so long, and you haven't shown any signs of dizziness, but I'm the one who caught you out, and now you're dizzy!"

"You come out here right now and explain yourself clearly about pulling my hair and slapping me! Don't try to get away with this!"

Seeing Tang Li lying motionless in bed, looking like a dead pig unafraid of boiling water, Wang Yu was so angry that his teeth itched, but he couldn't bear to actually teach her a lesson.

He bent down and gently bit Tang Li's exposed collar, then slowly backed away, pulling her out of the bed little by little.

"Loosen up! Loosen up now!"

Tang Li stumbled as she was dragged, and cried out in alarm, clutching her collar tightly with both hands, afraid he would bite it to shreds. "You're going to tear my clothes!"

Despite protesting, she obediently followed Wang Yuyu's force and slowly crawled out of bed, her face still showing lingering embarrassment.

"Hmph!" Wang Yuyu snorted lightly, the anger in her eyes still burning, but she still obediently opened her mouth, secretly pleased with herself as she watched her hurriedly straighten her collar.

"You're smart to know what's good for you, otherwise I really would have bitten your clothes to shreds!"

Then, he took a big step forward, raised his furry paw, and yanked off the small blanket next to him, instantly exposing a few tiger hairs hidden under the blanket to the two of them.

Wang Yu raised a paw and gently stepped on the tiger's fur, exuding an air of "caught red-handed".

He glared down at Tang Li, "Tang Li, what else do you have to say? Still trying to argue?"

Tang Li originally wanted to continue to deceive them, but when she saw the familiar tiger hairs under the tiger's paws, the smile on her face instantly froze, and her eyes panicked for a moment.

She quickly regained her composure, feigning surprise, and leaned closer: "Iron Rice Bowl, why are you still shedding? It's not even the season for changing fur yet, why are you shedding so much?"

As she spoke, she reached out and stroked Wang Yuyu's back and chest, ruffling his downy hair as if examining him, her tone full of "concern":

"Let me see quickly, are you malnourished lately? Or is something wrong?"

"We really need to take this shedding seriously, otherwise it won't look so majestic when it all falls out!"

But Wang Yuyu remained unmoved, standing firmly in place, his amber eyes cold as he watched her performance, not even bothering to flick his tail.

"Keep acting, keep acting! I want to see how long you can keep up this act, you drama queen!"

"You think you can get away with this? No way!"

Tang Li rummaged around on Wang Yuyu for a while, rubbing against him until his fur was all messed up, but Wang Yuyu remained indifferent, his eyes showing no sign of softening, and he didn't even give a single response.

Tang Li could no longer keep up the act; the concern on her face gradually faded, replaced by a smirk.

She slowly raised her head, cautiously meeting Wang Yuyu's eyes, her tone softening, tinged with a hint of appeasement and guilt:

"A secure job? I was wrong, I was so wrong!"

"I shouldn't have been so restless while you were sleeping, I shouldn't have pulled your fur, and I shouldn't have slapped your face. I'm sorry..."
