Bai Di immediately understood from Si Lu's expression that this little female loved those cute, adorable beast forms.
Sigh.
Of course, that rabbit was indeed quite different from the rest.
After all, this was the first time Bai Di had ever seen a pink rabbit, and it was undeniably cute.
But no matter how cute a rabbit could be, it couldn't compare to a fox's cuteness.
Hmph ╭(╯^╰)╮
"So, tell me, which is cuter, the rabbit or the fox?" Bai Di asked Si Lu with a smile.
His tone was casual, as if it was just an offhand question.
But Si Lu froze the moment she heard it.
She lifted her head and stared at Bai Di, a bit surprised.
For some reason, she instinctively felt that this was a question that required a very careful answer, or else...
This was clearly a trick question.
Si Lu realized the gravity of the situation.
This guy... was jealous.
She never expected her usually mild-mannered Bai Di to get jealous! How cute!
This was just too amusing.
Si Lu couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Her Bai Di was absolutely adorable.
She was thrilled!
"Lu Lu, why are you laughing? Answer me!"
"Come on, answer my question. Do you really think the rabbit is cuter?"
"Lu Lu, stop laughing!" Bai Di's face instantly turned unhappy.
His eyes held a hint of grievance, and his handsome face was laced with jealousy.
Seeing Si Lu laughing so gleefully, his heart grew even more discontent.
He stared at her miserably, his eyes beginning to glisten with unshed tears.
Si Lu, laughing as she was, suddenly felt something was off.
When she glanced over, she saw Bai Di's beautifully handsome face filled with a heartbreaking expression.
Oh no, she almost made her pure-hearted Bai Di cry.
His teary eyes brimmed with sorrow.
"No, don't be like that, don't be sad, Ah Di, Ah Di," Si Lu hastily said.
She reached out and embraced Bai Di.
Her dear Ah Di!
Why was he so easy to make cry?
Seeing his tear-filled eyes, her heart ached.
"Lu Lu, do you really think the rabbit is cuter?" Bai Di asked again, his voice choked with emotion.
He just wanted to know the answer.
"Is the fox not as cute as the rabbit?" Bai Di pressed further.
"No, the fox is the cutest! My Ah Di is the cutest, no one can compare! Really, even though the rabbit is cute, it's not as cute as the fox!"
"My Di Di is the cutest, truly. I love the fox the most, and I love Di Di the most." Si Lu held Bai Di tightly, comforting him.
Oh dear.
She almost made Bai Di cry.
"Really?" Bai Di asked in a tearful voice.
"Really, of course it's true. My Di Di is the cutest, the most handsome. I love foxes the most, and I love Di Di the most," Si Lu quickly reassured him.
Her tone was urgent, afraid that Bai Di wouldn't believe her and start crying.
Sigh.
This was the downside of having so many beast husbands.
But she couldn't help it.
She was such a superficial person, always drawn to handsome men of all kinds.
It was both a joy and a burden!
This was the first time she'd seen Bai Di act so jealous, though.
Of course, Si Lu found it amusing, but also heartwarming and a little heartbreaking. After all, she had never seen Bai Di like this before.
She never expected him to get jealous just because she said the rabbit was cute.
He just had to know whether the fox or the rabbit was cuter.
This guy was really adorable.
"Alright, Ah Di, don't be jealous anymore. I know, I mean it—foxes are the cutest." Si Lu patted Bai Di's head gently, speaking softly.
Of course, she truly believed the fox was cuter than the rabbit.
After all, one was just a random rabbit, while the other was her beloved partner. Naturally, her partner was the cutest.
Besides, she really did adore Bai Di.
His pure and sweet nature made him like a ray of moonlight in her life.
Who wouldn't love a beam of moonlight?
Naturally, Si Lu loved him too.
"That's good. I'll remember that, Lu Lu. I believe you," Bai Di said with a smile.
A moment ago, he had been on the verge of tears, but now he was smiling brightly as if a storm had passed and the sun had come out again.
His emotions really did shift quickly.
"Of course, when have I ever lied to you?" Si Lu replied with a smile.
Sometimes, her beast husbands were like little children.
Of course, Cheng Mo was much more mature in comparison.
Maybe it was because he was her first beast husband, so he carried more responsibilities.
Unlike Bai Yao, Song Zhan, or Bai Di, he couldn't afford to act childishly, throwing tantrums or seeking attention.
As the first husband, he had to uphold the responsibilities of his position.
Si Lu truly felt for him.
But for Si Lu, it didn't matter whether they were mature or not. After all, they were all her husbands, and it was fine if they wanted to be spoiled or act cute sometimes.
However, Cheng Mo himself seemed to avoid seeking her affection as much.
Meanwhile, back in the cave, Nans also heard their conversation. After all, the beastfolk had sharp hearing, and the distance wasn't far, so he naturally picked up everything.
He simply tugged at the corners of his mouth, his eyes carrying a trace of sadness.
Of course, he knew Si Lu was coaxing Bai Di. He also understood that Bai Di was Si Lu's beast husband, so naturally, he had a special place in her heart.
In Si Lu's eyes, a partner was always different.
Nans could only feel envious.
He was envious of how Si Lu was willing to comfort Bai Di. A female with such patience and kindness was truly hard to dislike.
He yearned to hear Si Lu say something nice about him, but given his current state, it wasn't possible.
Right now, he didn't deserve it.
He was very clear on that.
But he still wanted to hear her answer.
And when he did, he felt a bit heartbroken, disappointed.
Sometimes, even when you already know the answer in your heart, you still hold on to a bit of hope.
Outside the cave, Bai Di glanced smugly in the direction of the cave entrance. Of course, he had asked those questions on purpose.
He could sense that Si Lu really liked that rabbit.
But he didn't understand why. What was so special about that rabbit? Was a rabbit really cuter than a fox?
He didn't believe it, and he didn't want to believe it.
No matter what, he wanted to make sure Si Lu knew that in her eyes, he was still the most important, the cutest.
After all, Bai Di did feel a bit of a threat.
It was different from how he felt about Cheng Mo or Bai Yao.
Each of her beast husbands had their own unique personality and style.
But this wild rabbit felt similar to him in some ways, which made Bai Di uncomfortable, even a bit anxious.
That's why he felt the urge to compete a little.
He wanted that rabbit to understand—no matter how cute or not it was, his place in Si Lu's heart wouldn't change.
