The man half-kneeling in front of him heard the question, his sharp sword eyebrows twitched slightly, his eyelashes drooped, and his golden pupils glowed faintly, showing no emotion.

"Yuan...Yuan Yuan?"

The cold and deep voice was slightly hoarse.

Nan Xiao scratched his hair: "That's right, the system... Didn't the system prompt say that your name is Yuan Yuan?"

The man in front of him still looked dull, but his tense jaw line seemed to have loosened a bit.

Nan Xiao inadvertently caught a glimpse of the other party's thin red ear tips whether it was frozen or for some other reason.

"Yes, I am."

Nan Xiao breathed a sigh of relief: "Great, since this is the case, let's hurry up and leave here. I'm fine, my family can't stay in such an environment for a long time—Zaizai?"

He suddenly found that he and the NPC were the only ones left in the tent, and the little dragon cub who was still sleeping peacefully in the tent last night had disappeared.

After dozing off all of a sudden, Nan Xiao stood up and said hurriedly, "Zai Zai—Zai Zai?!"

There was no sound of dragon howling as he expected.

Could it be that the little dragon cub sneaked out to play while he was dozing off?

The primeval forest is so dangerous, what if there is an accident? !

Nan Xiao hurriedly opened the curtain and got out of the tent, a bit of annoyance and self-blame welled up in his eyes, and the worry on his face couldn't be hidden at all, which made his haggard complexion even paler.

If he hadn't dozed off in the middle of the night and fell asleep, Zai Zai wouldn't be able to find him now...

"Don't look for it, you... Your little dragon cub has been taken to a safe place by other NPCs arranged by the system to wait for you. He is fine now, and you will be able to see him when you walk out of the primeval forest."

Nan Xiao turned around, and the man followed him out of the tent at some point.

The morning sun penetrated the mist of the forest, melting his handsome brows into a faint halo.

He hadn't noticed that the other party was kneeling just now, but now he realized that the man was half a head taller than him, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. After taking off the straw hat, his short silver hair fell down, and even his eyelashes were silver.

He remembered that he observed his little dragon cub while he was sleeping, and the cub's eyelashes were also silvery white.

Maybe my cub will be such a handsome guy when he grows up, and there will definitely be many little girls and boys who will like him!

"What's wrong with you, do you have any questions?"

Nan Xiao came back to his senses, realized that he had been in a daze for too long, coughed lightly and laughed.

"It's nothing, as long as Zai Zai is safe-you look very similar to my Zai Zai, I mean...it should be similar to his future human form, so I was distracted for a while."

After the words fell, he caught a glimpse of the thin red color on the tip of the man's ear getting brighter.

He couldn't help being concerned: "Are you sick? It rained heavily yesterday, so it must not be easy for you to come here."

"No." The man turned his face sideways, and seemed to realize that his tone was too cold, and added, "It's just the wind. Since you are anxious to see your dragon cub, let's hurry up."

Nan Xiao nodded.

The man walked ahead of him and led the way. The other party seemed to be very familiar with the jungle. They walked for more than an hour without encountering any wild animals or difficult terrain.

only--

Nan Xiao tugged at the clothes that were half wet from last night's rain, and tried his best to keep up with the man's footsteps while trembling.

The end of the other party's hair also looked wet, and he was really embarrassed to ask a stranger to stop and rest for a while and change into clean clothes.

"It will take another five hours to reach the destination."

Nan Xiao walked forward dully, didn't pay attention to a small pit in front of him, staggered and almost fell.

Fortunately, the man in front strode over and held his wrist, so he barely stabilized his body.

"thanks……"

"Your hands are cold."

The back of his hand was suddenly rubbed lightly by the calloused fingertips of the other party, and there was a burst of itching, Nan Xiao couldn't help but shuddered slightly.

"Are you cold?"

He raised his head: "I'm fine..."

Before he could finish a sentence, his throat was coughed several times by the cold wind. Nan Xiao bowed his body and bent down to cough, feeling that his lips were going to be dry and cracked.

"It shouldn't be raining today. I didn't bring any medicine, so I'll be fine when I get out of here."

Nan Xiao raised his hand to wipe the physiological tears from the corners of his eyes, and nodded without knowing what to say, but the next moment, his body was suddenly covered with warmth.

A pair of slender hands appeared in the eyes blurred by tears, helping him fasten the belt of the raincoat at the hem of his clothes leisurely.

The poncho wrapped around his body still carried the body temperature of the other party, which suddenly made the chill around him retreat a lot.

"If you don't mind, you can change into clean clothes here."

Nan Xiao raised his eyes and saw the man's long and narrow phoenix eyes staring intently and coldly at the half-tied tie.

As if thinking of something, a little helplessness flashed in the other party's golden pupils.

"If there are no ready-made clothes and only fabrics, I can exchange my clothes for you to wear, dry."

A gust of hot air rushed up along the spine, and Nan Xiao felt his cheeks "chug" hot.

"No, no need." He stretched out his hand to wrap up the poncho, "This, this, it will be very warm."

After he stammered, he didn't dare to meet the other party's eyes.

This is too foul.

Is this the NPC in the holographic game?

It looks almost like a real person.

If any star in Interstellar Empire had such a face, he would be able to debut in no time and become a superstar in the entertainment industry.

After the tie was fastened, the other party withdrew his hand.

"Okay, so you need to sit down and cook something to eat and rest for a while?"

Nan Xiao rubbed his already empty stomach.

All NPCs have asked this question, and it seems a bit hypocritical for him to refuse more or less.

"……it is good."

Opening "Zai Zai Kitchen", Nan Xiao heated up the leftover beef noodles from yesterday, specially added more soup, and did not forget to serve a portion for the NPC.

Nan Xiao took a sip of the soup first. Although the saltiness was not adjusted very well, in the cold winter, drinking a sip of boiling hot soup still made people feel very comfortable.

"...my little dragon cub is a picky eater."

Nan Xiao suddenly thought of Zai Zai who had been sent to a safe place.

"Hmm... He doesn't like to eat beef brisket stewed with potatoes, and he doesn't like to drink milk powder very much. The only thing he likes more is apples."

"I don't know if your game system will prepare food for him. My cub is just recovering from his injuries. He needs to be supplemented with nutrition in time, so he can't go hungry."

The man sitting not far from him paused with his chopsticks, his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly.

"I'll give him something to eat...is he picky?"

For the first time, Nan Xiao experienced the subtle psychology of parents eager to talk about their cubs to others.

"He's a picky eater!"

"I don't know how to cook. I finally made the first potato stewed beef brisket, but he overturned it with a 'snap'!"

"Give him milk powder, and he wouldn't drink it even if he was beaten to death, and he even spit out ice hockey to kill me! If it wasn't for...if I hadn't threatened him with a pink bubble skirt, he would rather die than obey."

"I saw on the game forum that other players' cubs are so well-behaved, but my family's is so hard to serve like a cold-hearted young master!"

Han Yuan pursed his lips thoughtfully and asked in a low voice.

"Then why didn't you leave him?"

The young man who was snoring and eating noodles pouted, his cheeks puffed up and down, like a little hamster.

It seemed that he asked some strange questions, and his eyes were a little surprised.

"Because my cub is very good. Although he is picky eater, he hates me, he is a cool little cub, but he is the best cub... No matter how good other people's family is, it is not him. I just like our cub."
