The black panther was really not accustomed to such close contact, he felt uneasy, yet his body slowly relaxed.
Jin thought this little female was truly strange.
He pondered for a long time before faintly understanding this odd feeling—as if this little female somehow knew him?
It made sense now, why she would call out his name, why she had a kind of natural trust and reliance on him, as if he were the closest person to her, someone who would always guard and protect her.
Even this emotion infected him to some extent.
Including a patience and indulgence he had never experienced before towards this little female’s daring actions, something unimaginable in the past.
Jin didn’t like keeping suspicions in his heart, so he straightforwardly asked, "Do you know me?"
The little female didn’t move, closing her eyes as she curled up in his arms, using his tail as a sleep mat and pillow, as if she were truly asleep.
Jin pulled his tail out, frowned impatiently, and said, "Speak."
"Don’t pretend to be asleep."
"Otherwise I’ll eat you."
"..."
Shen Tang was indeed not asleep, or rather, in such circumstances, no one could be calm enough to fall asleep.
Under the oppressive gaze of the black panther, Shen Tang could no longer pretend to be asleep, so she rubbed her eyes, pretending to just wake up, her voice carrying a coquettish laziness, "What did you ask me?"
The black panther lowered his head, drawing near, those lantern-sized dark golden beast eyes staring straight into hers, repeating tirelessly, "Do you know me?"
Locked in by such a terrifying and powerful fierce beast at close range, like a captured prey. So close, the murky strong breath blowing from overhead made Shen Tang’s hair and clothes sway in the wind, instinctively causing a huge sense of fear and pressure, making her want to run away.
Yet the little female seemed not to be afraid at all.
She deeply gazed into those familiar golden eyes, her lips moved slightly, but she shook her head with a light laugh, "I... don’t know you."
Jin’s heart suddenly felt empty, somewhat stifled, as if the answer he had hoped for was dashed, and the other party gave a reply he didn’t want to hear.
