Chapter Five Hundred and Eighty Six - Otters and Jaguars
Five years passed in the blink of an eye.
Of course, in the past five years, my neighbor Ah Jin also came back to visit from time to time. It was a real visit, bringing some food, and then pulling Jun Qi to chirp some words.
Xu Qiaoqiao couldn't understand it anyway, but she could see Junjun's expression.
Most of the time, Jun Qi's expression was - very disgusted.
I feel helpless and disgusted, but I won’t do anything again. After all, we have known each other for so many years. Jun Qi’s current mentality is very Buddhist.
"Chirp." Uh-huh, yes, yes.
Jun Qi's tail swung back and forth, lying there lazily, listening to the chattering of the jaguar in front of him, and touching the little guy's head from time to time.
Jun Qi is not that kind of unreasonable jaguar. After eating the food brought by the other party, it is normal to make some small sacrifices, such as listening to his nagging.
From feeling lonely to missing the food made by Peter and Ed, there were countless gaps in between. Jun Qi squatted there, scratched his neck with his hind limbs, and then yawned.
Really...I'm tired of listening.
However, this guy shows no signs of stopping.
Still pouring out the bitter water.
Jun Qi: "..."
His brows were so furrowed that he picked up a lot of flies.
Is this guy finished?
Ah Jin took a bite of the meat and shouted a few words to Jun Qi. With tears in his eyes, he looked very melancholy. But thinking about it, he is almost ten years old this year, and he can be considered a middle-aged jaguar.
Already.
This is a middle-aged uncle.
Xu Qiaoqiao lay on Jun Qi's back, hugging his neck with her two forelimbs, her furry tail hanging down naturally, looking curiously at Ah Jin, wondering what the jaguar was talking about.
It seems like I should listen to it.
It's a pity that only Junjun can understand it, but...she looked at Jun Qi's face. The emotion on his face was not particularly happy. On the contrary, it was a kind of helplessness and disgust, as if to say: At such an old age, the boss is no longer young.
, why are you still so childish?
This was the emotion Xu Qiaoqiao read from Jun Qi's eyes, but even so, Jun Qi still listened patiently, and even echoed the other person's words when he finished.
"Hey." Junjun, what are you talking about?
Xu Qiaoqiao called out curiously. Although she knew that Jun Qi couldn't understand what she said for the time being, she still couldn't help but scream out. She felt that it would be a pity if she didn't say anything about such a scene.
Ah Jin is indeed old and has almost gone through half of his life journey. If he had not met Jun Qi and Xu Qiaoqiao, he might have been just like an ordinary jaguar, living alone without companions or food partners.
When I'm bored, I climb trees, stay in the trees and look at the distant scenery, and maybe I fall asleep just looking at it.
When night falls, get up, climb down from the tree, and start to get active, hunting for food and patrolling the territory. When you come back, only the cold night shines on you.
Usually, they don’t take the initiative to get close to other similar species. Like the previous territorial issue with Jun Qi, it was already some interactions with the same species. The rest was with the female jaguar when the breeding season came.
Have a baby.
This kind of life was what Ah Jin had always lived before he met this neighbor.
But it's different now.
Ah Jin looked at Xu Qiaoqiao and Jun Qi, and he felt like he had met a friend.
Maybe he didn't know what the word friend meant, but when he was with his neighbor and his neighbor's pet, he understood the meaning of the word friend.
"Chirp." Give your pet something to eat. I see that she keeps looking towards me. Is she hungry?
Ah Jin noticed that the little otter's bright eyes kept looking towards him. He looked down at the caiman he had brought, blinked, and suddenly bit off a large piece of meat and handed it to Jun Qi.
.
Xu Qiaoqiao: "..."
Jun Qi: "..."
Jun Qi turned to look at Xu Qiaoqiao. At this moment, the little guy's eyes were still on Ah Jin and he didn't look back.
The reason why Xu Qiaoqiao was silent was because she understood Ah Jin's movements. The other person looked at her several times, then lowered his head to bite the meat and handed it to Junjun. When he handed it over, he was looking at her.
Are you giving me meat?
"Chirp?" Are you hungry?
It happened that Jun Qi also asked this question at this time. Xu Qiaoqiao blinked. She looked into Jun Qi's eyes and was stunned, not knowing how to answer or say.
You are hungry even if you say you are hungry, and you are not hungry even if you are not hungry.
It’s the kind of state where it’s okay to eat something or not to eat.
Xu Qiaoqiao could still understand what Jun Qi's question meant, so she hesitated, and Jun Qi happened to be able to understand her hesitation.
Then, Jun Qi decisively took the piece of meat, pinched the back of Xu Qiaoqiao's neck with his other paw, put it next to him, peeled off the skin of the piece of meat handed over by Ah Jin, and handed it to Xu Qiaoqiao.
"Chirp." Eat.
Xu Qiaoqiao hugged the piece of meat, narrowed her eyes happily, and rubbed her head against Jun Qi's palm. She looked very well-behaved, and sat next to Jun Qi, eating the piece of meat in small bites.
Calculating the time now, it is already July. In the dry season, rainfall is pitifully low. However, the dry season has just entered, and food resources are still not that scarce.
Seeing Xu Qiaoqiao eating so happily, Jun Qi's eyes overflowed with gentle light, he felt the softness in his palms, and a place in his heart seemed to have collapsed.
Very good, he thought, with such chatter, he could listen to his neighbor's chatter for a whole day.
Ah Jin looked at Xu Qiaoqiao with unusually kind eyes, perhaps because the difference in body size was too obvious, and he was indeed the oldest one present. Without the factor of competition, he looked extremely docile at the moment.
That's right, it's docile.
"Hey?" Here!
Xu Qiaoqiao noticed Jun Qi's gaze, looked up, and fell into a pair of gentle green eyes. She blinked, suddenly narrowed her eyes and laughed, tearing the piece of meat into two halves, and fed half to Jun
Qi's mouth.
Jun Qi ate it obediently. When Xu Qiaoqiao saw this, she smiled even more happily. She laughed a few times, stretched out her paws and touched his chin, as if scratching an itch.
Ah Jin watched the interaction between his neighbor and his little pet, and couldn't help but yawned. His mental state began to decline a little. He lay lazily on the ground, with his forelimbs slightly bent, stacked up and down, and his chin knocked on the ground.
On the forelimbs.
He rubbed his eyes, yawned again, and slowly fell into a deep sleep.
When Xu Qiaoqiao and Jun Qi turned their attention to their neighbor again, they discovered that the neighbor had fallen into a deep sleep. The hair on his face made him look tired, and his breathing was very slow.
"Hey." Xu Qiaoqiao whispered.
——Junjun, the neighbor is sleeping.
She raised her paw, put it in front of her mouth, and said "Shhh". Jun Qi lowered his eyes slightly, and his voice became much softer unconsciously. He lowered his head, kissed Xu Qiaoqiao's head, and kissed her.
Kiss her eyes.
——I saw that he was sleeping.
Sleeping soundly.
Jun Qi glanced at his neighbor, tilting his head and wondering what he was thinking. After a while, he hesitated slightly and went to the side to pick up the big leaf they had broken off before, and then covered his neighbor.
After covering it, Jun Qi stepped on the edge of the big leaf with his paws. When he saw that one side was slightly shorter, he went over and dragged it over.
Finally, he looked up at the sky. The sun was shining brightly, the sky was clear, and the sun was shining brightly high in the sky.
——Good afternoon, neighbor.
After finishing this matter, Jun Qi licked his paws and slowly walked towards the den. It was afternoon and it was the most sleepy time of the day.
Remember, little ones are always like this. When going to sleep, they have to cover themselves with something.
Of course, Jun Qi does not have this habit.
Just seeing Xu Qiaoqiao's shining eyes, I suddenly thought of this and went to do it.
Generally speaking, Xu Qiaoqiao uses his tail as a quilt to cover himself, but it only covers his belly. Sometimes, when Jun Qi is sleeping, he will secretly touch his tail.
Junjun's tail is very big, mainly because it is long enough to make it feel comfortable to touch and rub against.
Thinking of this, Xu Qiaoqiao looked at Jun Qi's tail. It was fluffy and looked like a rua.
Jun Qi naturally didn't know about Xu Qiaoqiao's psychological activities. He lay there as before, licked his lips, called out to Xu Qiaoqiao, and waved his paws.
——Little guy, come here.
After Xu Qiaoqiao saw it, she ran over and threw herself at Jun Qi, hugging Jun Qi's head.
She is no longer as small as she was when she was a child, and her weight is getting more and more impressive. When this big one pounced on her, Jun Qi felt like his head was dizzy.
"嘤嘤."
"Chirp."
——It's time to sleep, little one.
Xu Qiaoqiao slightly let go of her forelimbs, then slowly slid to his chest, rubbed her face against his chest, and hummed with satisfaction.
