Tiger, I rejected the iron rice bowl.

At this moment, nestled between three closely packed boulders by the pool, Wang Yuyu was comfortably hiding in the water, only his tiger head protruding above the surface. His amber eyes were fixed on the light above him, his ears twitching slightly, his heart filled with disdain.

"Hmph, trying to trick me again?"

"How could someone as clever as me be fooled by you? I'm not that easily fooled!"

"A secure job! A secure job!"

Tang Li stood by the pool, throwing stones and shouting, "Come out quickly! I really see you! Your tail's showing, what are you hiding for?!"

"iron rice bowl……"

Tang Li called out for a long time, looking around, but apart from the tiger paw prints by the pool, she couldn't see even a single tiger hair. She lowered her head and muttered to herself, "Strange, could it be that the 'iron rice bowl' really isn't here? Is the locator really broken?"

Just then, she suddenly noticed that the ripples on the water at her feet suddenly increased in size and speed. Following the ripples, she looked into the distance of the pool and saw a huge yellow-black figure walking on the bottom of the water, slowly swimming towards her.

"A secure job!" Tang Li's eyes lit up, and a surprised smile instantly appeared on her face. She couldn't help but shout it out.

Wang Yuyu, underwater, looked at Tang Li cheering on the shore, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes.

He immediately sped up, surfaced, shook his head, splashing water everywhere, and then did a series of lively dog ​​paddles before swimming to Tang Li. He gently nuzzled her palm, looking very obedient.

Tang Li looked at the "smiling tiger" in front of her, who was soaking wet and dripping with water, and was both angry and amused. She reached out and grabbed his tiger head, scratching his fur back and forth:

"So, you really were hiding here!"

"I've been calling you for so long, why didn't you come out? Were you deliberately hiding in the shadows watching me make a fool of myself?"

"Tell me honestly, where did you hide? I looked all around the pond, but I couldn't find you anywhere!"

Wang Yuyu gently shook her head, nuzzling her head against her palm, but secretly muttered to herself, "I'm not telling you! That's a hiding place I finally found! It's for saving my life!"

"If I tell you, how will I hide it anymore?"

Seeing Wang Yuyu shake his head and refuse to speak, Tang Li felt a little wronged. She reached out and tapped his head, laughing and scolding, "Well, you've grown up, haven't you? You won't even tell me anymore, you've learned to keep secrets!"

"Fine, I won't tell you then. I don't care to know anyway!"

He said that, but his actions were anything but gentle.

Suddenly, her face darkened, and she grabbed Wang Yuyu's two tiger ears, gently pulling them back and forth, deliberately making various comical gestures, and questioned him in a serious tone:

"A secure job, didn't I tell you that if you encounter criminals, don't rush in, stay far away, and notify the research base immediately to handle it?"

Wang Yuyu's ears ached from being pulled, and she quickly nodded, thinking to herself, "I already said that, so what? It's just dealing with two trespassers, why are you so angry?"

Seeing Wang Yuyu obediently admit it, Tang Li's anger flared even more, and she tightened her grip even more. "Since you remember everything, why did you fight with those two criminals the night before last? Why didn't you notify the research base immediately to handle it?"

"You just recklessly rush in like that? What if they have guns? What if you get hurt? What if they kill you?"

"We're so far away. By the time we get there and try to save you, it will be too late! Do you know how dangerous that is?"

"You're a tiger, not a human. Humans are the most terrifying. Don't think you're invincible just because you're big and strong. A small gun can easily take your tiger's life!"

"Then all I'll see are your tiger-skin coat, tiger-tooth necklace, tiger bone ointment, and tiger penis wine!"

"Do you know how terrified I am just thinking about these things?"

"Speak up! Why aren't you saying anything? Weren't you so tough? Didn't you dare to rush in and fight? Why are you so quiet now..."

Tang Li became more and more excited as she spoke, shaking Wang Yuyu's tiger head vigorously until he felt dizzy.

Wang Yuyu was speechless, inwardly groaning, "Damn it, you've grabbed my mouth and squeezed my face so hard it's distorted, how am I supposed to talk?!"

"If you're so tough, let go of me and we'll have a proper talk, see who shouts the loudest!"

"If I don't roar you to death, I'm not a Siberian tiger!"

But he could only complain in his heart; he couldn't even hum aloud. He could only blink his eyes in grievance and let Tang Li "lecture" him.

He could tell that Tang Li was really worried about him!

Tang Li unilaterally "taught" Wang Yu a lesson for a while. Seeing him dizzy and looking aggrieved, her anger subsided considerably, and she reluctantly let go.

As soon as Wang Yuyu was freed, he kicked his limbs and swam to the center of the pool with a splash. Only his wet tiger head was visible. His amber eyes were watching Tang Li warily, and his ears were drooping slightly, making him look like he was on high alert.

He was terrified that Tang Li would rush over and pull his ears or shake his head again; that would be too unpleasant.

Tang Li looked at his terrified expression, both amused and annoyed. She deliberately glared at him, stood up, and dusted herself off. "I'm going to get the examination tools. You get up here right now, you hear me? If you dare to slack off, see how I deal with you!"

"Mmm!" Wang Yuyu looked at the "dangerous" smile in Tang Li's eyes and nodded vigorously, her head bobbing like a rattle drum.

He had no doubt that if he dared to disobey or not go up, given Tang Li's personality, she would definitely jump into the water and grab him. At that point, it wouldn't be as simple as just pulling his ear; he didn't want to suffer that kind of torment again.

After Tang Li walked away, Wang Yuyu climbed out of the pool and onto the shore. He shook his head and body vigorously, and water droplets splashed everywhere like broken jade, leaving water stains on the surrounding stones.

Only when his fur was half-dry did he stretch comfortably and lie down obediently to wait.

Before long, Tang Li came over carrying a box full of inspection tools. From a distance, she saw Wang Yuyu lying obediently on the shore, looking at her with pleading eyes, like a large pet waiting to be fed.

A slight smile crept onto her lips as she nodded in satisfaction. "Hmm, that's a good girl! After the checkup, I'll give you meat and a big watermelon!"

"Watermelon!" Upon hearing these two words, Wang Yuyu's eyes lit up instantly. His previously droopy ears immediately stood up straight, and he kept grinning foolishly at Tang Li, even his tail couldn't help but wag gently.

"Look at you, so useless! All you do is eat!"
