I’m Hui Tai Lang

Chapter 4: Not Being a Pretty Boy

　　The relationship between me and foster mother has at last been determined, no matter if she is or isn’t my biological mother, I’ll only call her foster mother anyway.

　And starting from today, I and Miki became good buddies. Accurately speaking, it’s her that’s persistently staying beside me. I’m not a kindergarten auntie and not interested to be a nanny.

The System is taking more time than I have thought to start, I slowly also sensed the wolf legion’s wolf cubs’ malice; Except for Miki, the other wolf cubs all ignore me. The way the wolf cubs look at me, I don’t care, sadly, even the adult wolves also exclude me; Every time when I want to squeeze in and have a large and sumptuous meal, I always get chased out, furthermore I’ve been violently thrown out a few times; Falling to the ground and hurting so much that I’m unable to stand up even after half a day.

TL: Lol you already know the result, why do you try to get more hurt? You a masochist?

Every time this happens, foster mother would ran over, lightly lick my head. I admit that this kind of concern and care is capable of slightly warming my icy heart.

At that time, I would then complain: Why isn’t foster mother the wolf legion’s leader? That way I’ll not be bullied then.

It was clear, that I had in fact suffered a setback; I unreasonably complained, just like the poor children from Earth unreasonably complaining why their own parents aren’t rich and have high status!

TL: Everyone wants to be Silkpants!

Miki would also occasionally bring some pieces of meat to me, however I would always refuse. Apart from the disgusting saliva, I also have self-respect, as a male, I absolutely can’t depend on a female to provide for me!

Especially being provided by a not yet adult female wolf, in this way, where will my face go?

TL Note: Face is respect.

Can’t live off a woman, can´t be a pretty boy, this is the bottom line of me being a wolf.

Actually there’s a small river not far away, if I wash away the saliva on top then it’ll become edible, I already noticed this long ago.

Look, there’s practically only this one animal on Heaven and Earth that would so persistently follow principles. It simply should be the model for the animal world, the wolf pack’s model!

TL Note: He’s talking about his Miki being the only one who actually cares and don’t discriminate him.

I simultaneously drank sweet breast milk and fantasized complacently.

But why do I feel sad?

The breast milk is clearly very tasty!

Is easier to digest than meat, drinking much also won’t too easily cause diarrhea; Is tastier than meat, both fragrant and sweet; is more nutrient than meat, It’s breast milk that has the most nutrient, it’s good conscience marked; It contains no food additives, it’s said that there are also antibodies that can strengthen the body’s immune system.

TL Note: The good conscience means it’s healthy food you can have a good conscience for eating.

But why would my heart ache?

Looking at foster mother’s squinted eyes, I’m extremely doubtful if I, in this lifetime, will I be capable to wean.

To wean or not? When can I wean?

This is indeed an extremely embarrassing yet also imminent matter.

The wolf legion excludes me, there’ll inevitably be a day where I’ll need to go hunting by myself, if I hunt alone, I’m afraid I’ll starve myself to death.

The success rate of a lone wolf hunting really isn’t high, moreover my own breed’s success rate seems to be lower by a lot more than the other wolves in the wolf legion.

I recalled that lousy System, it has only updated 30%, exactly which telecommunication company’s fault is this?

Mobile? Telecom?

No matter how, life still continues.

I’ve actually been excluded, so I also don’t plan to join in the fun, being alone is also doesn’t matter. In the past when I was sick, I also stayed in the hospital ward alone, except for the occasionally passing by beautiful nurses, I stayed in bed for a year, even like this, I still remain alone.

Solitude, I can still bear.

Miki doesn’t ostracize me at all, she still bothers me just like in the past, there’s also foster mother’s care and concern for me, giving me a strand of sunshine.

As a wolf, you depend on hunting for livelihood, this is a highly dangerous profession.

Preys certainly won’t obediently wait for you to eat them. Everyday I can experience all kinds of dead preys, they just don’t look like easy preys, even if they’re dead.

The wolf legion would occasionally bring back some injured small preys, and let the wolf cubs take care of them, training their hunting skills.

I of course did not have the privilege to join in such a fun game, and could only stand far away and watch.

TL Note: Lol this is just like your average xianxia novel, mc is trash(can’t spit out freezing air) hated by everyone except for a few close ones like family and friends.

I’ve once seen a white rabbit spit out an ice arrow, a copper colored little ox actually being torn by 10 wolf cubs, with it’s valiant defense it persevered  a whole afternoon, afterwards an adult wolf could no longer bear watching, and bit it for a minute until the little ox was bit to death.

At this time, I was even a bit worried for foster mother, and inwardly prayed that she won’t get hurt.

However, it was very clear that no gods heard my prayer. On the fourth day, just when the System had updated to 98%, foster mother returned limping back.

She powerlessly lied down next to me, like usually she lied down, but didn’t display her affection for me.

The “ao ao” sounds was also not as forceful and courageous, on the contrary it was more like painful groans.

I ran over, very soon I noticed two small black holes on her hind legs, the skin around was pitch-black, it looked like she was bitten by a viper.

The fact is like this, she got injured, most likely seriously injured.

I was anxious, not knowing what I should do.

My scant knowledge of first aid tells me, the best method right now is to suck out the venom; Or give an injection with snake venom antidote, but do I have  such things?

I don’t!

Sucking out the venom now is probably also too late, he had hurried back from so far away, the poison must  have circulated through her blood system and spread throughout her whole body, in a world without serum, one can already issue a critical condition notice.

TL Note: 病危通知书 Seems to be for patients with conditions uncontrollable by doctors, so by issuing this notice the doctors won’t need to bear any responsibilities if the patient dies. So in this case it could mean like get ready for funeral?

This stupid female wolf, could it not just  be a bit smarter?

When poisoned it’s best to not move!

The female wolf stared at me, with her miserable gaze, and unceasingly let out that kind of sounds that makes one sad, I didn’t even have the heart to tell her that.

I turned my head away, I did not want to look at her.

The female wolf seems to know that she doesn’t have much time left, shifted herself to me, bit onto my nape, and threw me to her chest. This meaning I understand, she wants to breastfeed me.

Remembering that in past few days, it was always at this time she would breastfeed me once.

I, your daddy’s nose turned a bit sour, I really want to scold her.

TL Note: nose turning sour happens when you’re about to cry.

How could I, your daddy  have this kind of foster mother?

So stupid you’ll get someone killed. You yourself have been poisoned and still want me to drink breast milk, you really aren’t afraid you’ll me poison to death?

Dying by yourself is fine, why the heck are you pulling me down with you?

I vowed to heaven: if she recovers, in the future I won’t ever call her foster mother again, I’ll call her Dummy.

Just when I was restless, the ground shook.

I turned my head and looked, it’s Big White.

TL Note: When did he nickname the leader?

The first time I meet this kind of truck like monster it’s body also carried a naturally powerful pressure, immediately scaring me to lie down, and I felt I was like mole crickets and ants, that could be killed by him with a single slap.

In the past I had a somewhat favorable impression of this guy, I felt it was very brave and powerful.

But now, I feel it’s very hateful, very ugly, I really want to peel off its white fur and lay it down in the cavern and step on it as a carpet.

Foster mother has been bitten by a viper, it definitively has to bear major responsibility for that.

Every time they go hunting it’s always this guy leading, wherever it runs to, the wolf legion then follow it.

Why did they not go to a good place, they just had to go and step on vipers?

I looked up at it’s head that was suspended in midair, feeling extremely unresigned.

Enduring the naturally powerful pressure carried by its body that comes from it’s race, I clenched my teeth, and wobbly stood up, walked to its feet.

Big White looked at me somewhat curiously, not knowing what I want to do.

Staring at one of its forelegs’ toe, I bit down, I couldn’t even bite through its skin.

Its skin is really thick.

Big White lowered its head, placed that table sized white face in front of me, sized me up a bit, blew a breath, I was suddenly attacked by a burst of strong breeze, and rolled a few revolutions.

TL Note: Can you say laps instead of revolutions? English isn’t my country’s language and I only know “revolutions” in English from physics so the term revolutions might sound awkward here? If anyone got some ideas please comment below! ^^

Its grandma, it’s bullying too much!

TL Note: 它奶奶的 = Its grandma, but can also mean damn it, blast it.

Big White left behind a few pieces of meat, then turned around and left, I looked at its “enormous” body, not knowing what to do with it.

Is this promise of welfare?

The female wolf slowly chewed the pieces of meat, the several strong and healthy adult wolves in the surrounding covetously looked at those pieces of meat, but did not dare to steal them. In the wolf legion, the wolf king has absolute power.

The remaining one piece of meat, she pushed it over to me, yet I had no appetite.

I’m allergic to saliva, especially Big White’s.

That piece of meat was therefore placed between me and her, neither of us made a move.

She just lied down like that, when she occasionally hear sounds from her surrounding, she’ll open her eyes and cast a look at me, she was calm just like a beautiful and virtuous woman, quietly awaiting her death.

But I, however, was unable to bear this kind of deathly silence. I opened my mouth, and bit at her wound. My small fangs tore open her wound, black blood flowed out. I wanted to try sucking out the black blood, yet I don’t have any way to do so. Who was it that let my mouth be shaped protruding outwards?

TL Note: Basically it’s his own fault for his mouth being shaped like that so he can’t suck out the black blood.

Thinking for a bit, I missed humans’ lips incomparably much, there are both flat and soft, sucking out venom with them is extremely easy.

You say for how many tens of thousands of years have the wolves evolved for, how could they have evolved forth a protruding mouth?

No wonder the wolves on Earth are always being hunted by humans, naturally serves them right!

With great difficulty I found a protruding spot on her wound, I slowly suck out the venom, because if I’m slightly inattentive, I’ll be unable to bit onto that spot.

I spit out the black blood and felt my mouth turn numb, this isn’t ulcer right?

Otherwise she’s certainly screwed.

I bit and tore open her wound, sucked out the venom, but all along the female wolf didn’t even twitch, her thigh has most likely already paralyzed.

These methods can only slow down the spread of venom, it’s absolutely unable to solve the root of the problem.

After sucking out the venom for a while more, my face turn numb.

I suddenly heard the System say, updated to 99%, I abruptly jumped.

Don’t I have the System?

Maybe I can cure the female wolf!

I turned my head and looked at the female wolf, only then did I notice, she hadn’t moved in a very long time.

I ran over, used my front claws and clawed her big face, bit her ear, stepped on her stomach, I was so worried I almost cried.

Only after a long while, did she open her eyes, they were somewhat dull, she lightly swung her head, pushing me away, I accidentally stepped on that piece of meat and slipped.

Immediately after, she shut her eyes again, she really seemed to be very tired, I don’t know if she’ll dream about her late husband.

However, I reacted very quickly, I rushed forward and disturbed her; I used my claws, teeth and head all together to attack, I pulled her fur, bit her ear, bashed her head, I was completely unscrupulous, just like shrew fighting.

I shouted loudly in my heart:

Sleep?

Sleep your sister!

Quickly get up for I, am your daddy. I, your daddy’s hungry, I want to drink milk!

You still won’t open your eyes?

How about we play peekaboo? Pick up the soap?

Alright, you win, I’ll be the prisoner, I’ll pick up the soap, that should be fine right?

Open your eyes for I, your daddy!
