The End Times as a Song

Chapter 14 Stealing food

"elder sister……"

The unfamiliar young man next to them awkwardly spoke up, interrupting the brief moment of harmony.

"Who are you...? Why are you in our house...?"

Tu Shanyan rubbed his hands together, filled with inexplicable hostility, and pressed the unfamiliar boy for answers.

"I...I don't know..."

The unfamiliar boy was timid and hesitant, posing no threat or harm. He seemed extremely nervous, his hands clenched tightly, his words incoherent, unsure how to respond to Tu Shanyan's words.

“Ah Yan… don’t do that, you’ll scare him… he just transformed into human form.”

Huan Ruge shielded the unfamiliar boy behind her, afraid that Tu Shanyan would bully this innocent child.

"Yes, I've transformed. I just transformed... Sister is right..."

The unfamiliar young man echoed Huan Ruge's words, responding to Tu Shanyan.

“Transformation? Could he be a demon? Huanhuan, how do you know he just transformed? Aren’t you afraid he might be a demon, like the bad guy who hurt Ran’s mother last time?”

"It can't be that bad... I accidentally bumped into him just now, and he told me... Look, he just transformed, he can't even speak properly yet, and he doesn't even know who he is... If he's not a threat, then don't bully him."

“Who bullied him… No, Huanhuan, you believed him when he said he just transformed into human form…”

Tu Shanyan glanced at the unfamiliar young man, then turned to Huan Rugo and spoke in disbelief.

"Are you... from the Hundred Herbs Nursery?"

Although Xiao Yuanran could no longer see, her mind was as clear as a mirror.

Xiao Yuanran listened quietly for a long time, but didn't sense that this strange young man had any intention of harming them. She suddenly asked the strange young man a question, knowing to some extent what was going on.

"Um...yes, sister...you know me...?"

The unfamiliar young man, as if grasping at a straw, asked Xiao Yuanran a question in return.

"You are the little bear in the nursery, the one Huanhuan brought back before my accident, the little bear that was seriously injured..."

After hearing the stranger's affirmative answer, Xiao Yuanran asked him several more questions.

“Ran’s mother, you mean this boy, the little bear that Huanhuan picked up a few months ago?”

Tu Shanyan looked up, feeling a sense of sudden realization and disbelief.

"Mother, no, you mean this child who just transformed into human form is the little bear I brought home not long ago, the one who was almost dead..."

Huan Rugo sought confirmation again, and a doubt began to creep into her mind.

Huan Rugo thought to herself, "That little bear looks clumsy, but I never expected it to be so handsome and lovable when it transforms into human form."

"Hmm... if he transformed from the Hundred Herbs Nursery, then that's correct."

Xiao Yuanran repeatedly assured them that this guy was indeed their child and posed no threat.

“Fangcao Village is protected by a barrier, so evil spirits can’t get in… He doesn’t have any evil aura… He’s different from the demons that hurt us. He must be that little bear.”

Xiao Yuanran once again assured Huan Ruge.

"May I have your name……"

Huan Rugo stared at the little bear, looked it over carefully, and then asked it what its name was.

"I...I don't know..."

The little bear was still very nervous, clenching his hands and shaking his head to indicate that he didn't know.

"Huan'er, a newly transformed demon, is similar to a newborn child, and doesn't even have a name... so please don't make things difficult for this child."

Xiao Yuanran told Huan Ruge not to put pressure on the brat.

"If it doesn't have a name, let's give it one. How about Little Silly Bear..."

Seeing how much Huan Rugo cared about this little bear, Tu Shanyan began to tease her, sounding a little aggrieved.

"How about you call yourself Xiong Xi..."

Huan Rugo unconsciously bit her little hand, lowered her head and thought for a moment. She turned around and looked up at the little bear and said.

"Bear Attack... Sister... Is that my name?"

The little bear stared wide-eyed at Huan Rugo, seeking her affirmation.

"Okay, from now on your name will be Xiong Xi, and I can call you A Xi..."

"By the way, this is Tu Shanyan, and over there is my mother, Xiao Yuanran... From now on, you will be a member of Fangcao Village, just like us."

"Why call him Bear Attack? 'Little Silly Bear' would be a better and more fitting name... He is a silly bear after all..."

Tu Shanyan was filled with jealousy. Whenever someone appeared around Huan Rugo, or whenever Huan Rugo paid too much attention to her, he would become suspicious.

“Ah Yan…”

"Thank you... sister..."
