Chapter 450: Chapter 450: Are You Sure This Is a Lion?

"You... what do you want to do... ah—"

In front of everyone’s eyes, Chi Youyou gave the man a kick in the next second, directly knocking him to the ground, leaving only cries of agony.

Everyone: ?

Even the imposing lion standing there paused for a moment.

On the second-floor balcony, Cheng Shujin winced along with the man being kicked down. He knew Chi Youyou was formidable, but he didn’t know she was this formidable...

Luckily, he hadn’t done anything out of line in front of her, otherwise, he might have ended up the same way!

Amid everyone’s confusion, she turned toward the lion, which inexplicably took a step back.

Everyone: ???

Are we seeing this right?

The lion is scared?

Chi Youyou ignored them, slightly bending her body, her entire being in a relaxed state, completely free of the previous guardedness. At some point, something had appeared in her hand.

From the second-floor balcony, Cheng Shujin couldn’t make it out clearly.

"Auntie... this really okay?"

That’s a lion...

Cheng Ruosheng looked at her daughter downstairs and sighed helplessly, suddenly recalling what Song Shiyu had said that day: "You and Uncle can stay at ease in M Country, everything with Youyou will be my responsibility. Once Youyou is better, I will bring her over to see you."

She thought it was just to comfort them and not to worry, but this was the true meaning!

They were just supposed to wait in M Country.

She furrowed her brows. There was definitely something odd about this matter, otherwise, they wouldn’t go to such lengths.

"Auntie, don’t worry, I..."

"I’m fine, you don’t worry either. Youbao may not be great at everything, but she’s excellent with animals. A lion is no big deal for her."

Once again, Cheng Shujin felt stunned in the wind, not knowing if it was the world he didn’t understand or his aunt was just overly confident.

He was still a bit uneasy and instructed the people nearby to keep a close watch. If anything went wrong, they were to shoot immediately!

Chi Youyou made peace with the lion, lowering her own guard, using her body to signal the lion to gradually drop its defenses.

"Don’t worry, the person who bullied you has been beaten by me!"

"Good boy~"

"It’s very tasty, you know, it’s Mimi’s favorite!"

"If Mimi knew I gave it to you, she’d be unhappy!"

Watching the scene below, Cheng Shujin felt his heart leap to his throat. Everybody was on high alert, having been told by the young master that if anything happened to the young lady, they would all pay with their lives!

"Roar!"

This lion had suffered so much, holding a strong wariness towards humans. Just when it began to relax a little, it sensed the tension in people around and grew alert again.

"You all step back; seeing you scares him."

Chi Youyou realized the lion’s shift in mood and even kicked the man she had knocked down earlier, "Take him away for me as well!"

The bodyguards, inexplicably obedient, followed Chi Youyou’s orders without waiting for Cheng Shujin’s instructions, dragging the man away despite his cries.

"Roar!"

"Alright, alright, we’ll do it your way, good boy~"

Chi Youyou, as if she understood, placed what she had in her hand on the ground and then stepped back.

After a while, the lion moved.

Everyone held their breath.

Right when everyone was tense, the lion cautiously approached, sniffed the item on the ground, and then...

Started eating...

Seeing this, Chi Youyou took some water from the fountain nearby and placed it on the other side.

"Eating just bread makes you thirsty, have some water."

Everyone: ...

She’s really chatting with the lion!

No... can they really just get along by chatting like this?

They’re really getting along?

Soon, they saw Chi Youyou petting the lion.

"Good boy~ see how nice this is~"

She scratched its head, coaxing it like a pet dog.

"Roar!"

"Does it hurt?"

She carefully checked, underneath the beautiful fur, there were shocking scars.

"Wait a moment!"

Chi Youyou pulled out a small bottle from her backpack, "It’ll sting a little, but you’ll feel much better soon, bear with it."

She sprayed on the clearly fresh wounds, and though the lion cried out in pain, it felt much better the next second, affectionately rubbing against Chi Youyou.

Everyone: ...

This was the lion we couldn’t handle with force just now!

This is a cat!

Cheng Shujin felt like his whole world had shifted.

He even suspected it was a setup by Chi Youyou, but then he remembered he had long ago made these arrangements. Nobody knew what he wanted with the lion, and the person involved was a very reputable beast tamer, who wouldn’t be this bored to act for Chi Youyou and also get beaten.

So those tigers, leopards, and bears in Youzi’s live stream aren’t just animals from a zoo?

"What’s going on?"

It was then Mr. Chi came out, having waited a while for his wife in the room without seeing her return.

"It’s all because of your darling daughter!"

"Youbao? How’s her wound? Did it get worse or something? Should we go back home to see her?"

Mr. Chi fired off a series of questions and then directly suggested returning home.

Cheng Ruosheng sighed, "See for yourself!"

She led Mr. Chi to the balcony, where they saw the heartwarming scene near the fountain—a happy moment between human and lion.

"Youbao!"

Mr. Chi called out excitedly.

"Dad!"

Upon hearing the voice, Chi Youyou looked up joyfully and jumped up, "Mom!"

She waved as she called out.

Mr. Chi’s face couldn’t conceal his happiness; his eyes were slightly red, muttering to himself: Youbao is fine!

"Dad! Mom!"

As they came downstairs, Chi Youyou rushed into their arms, embracing them warmly, "I’ve missed you so much!"

"You!"

Cheng Ruosheng gently pointed at her little head with a doting smile, "Weren’t you said to be severely injured in a car accident?"

"Mom~ I’m all better now. I knew you were worried, so as soon as the doctor said I could leave the hospital, I came running to find you!"

She twirled on the spot, "Dad, look, I just made a new friend—the lion over there~ Isn’t he majestic!"

"Hmm, not bad, though he’s a bit old."

Mr. Chi nodded seriously, circling the lion to check, "Didn’t you dislike lions before? If I knew you liked them, I wouldn’t have given that one away."

"That’s different, mainly because Mimi gets jealous~"

"Alright, alright, he’s been through a lot, you should take good care of him."

"Yes, sir!"

Cheng Shujin: ...

What... so now they’re just going to take care of the lion?

You’re not worried about any problems?
