Deep affection knows no origin; remember the polar bear's love for you.

Chapter 135 They Will Return

Two more hours passed, and Guo Mi still hadn't returned.

Summer started to get anxious, frequently glancing in the direction she had gone, tilting her nose up so as not to miss a single scent.

The unease affected Baymax; Little Bear secretly glanced at her and suddenly whispered:
"Mom, why are you in such a hurry for the other bear?"

Including protecting those two bear cubs.

The little bear cubs are very sensitive, especially when they see their mothers, whom they depend on completely, suddenly showing concern and helping a strange bear. They may wonder if they are no longer as important to their mothers.

Summer glanced down at Da Bai, noticing the unease in her eyes. Her eagerness to catch a whiff of her emotions paused, and after a moment, she smiled and said gently:
"Because Guo Mi is Mom's friend."

The little bear found this strange and asked intermittently:

"Friends?...Will I have friends in the future?"

She seemed somewhat expectant, but more hesitant, because Xia Tian had always taught her not to get close to her own kind.

Xia Tian hesitated for a moment, but she saw how the little bears supported each other, including when Guo Mi rushed into the wolf pack to help her.

Although she got caught in the wolf pack because she was helping Guo Mi rescue the bear cub.

But it was precisely because they were friends that she helped them, and it was precisely because they were friends that Guo Mi was willing to put herself in danger for her sake.

Friendship is mutual.

Looking at the bewildered Big White, she suddenly wondered if having friends to support her in the future would make life less difficult for her when she lived alone.

Even if we can't help each other, just talking to each other when we run into each other is enough to relieve the confusion and troubles we encounter in life.

Having thought this through, Xia Tian made up her mind and smiled at Da Bai, saying:

"You have friends, right? You played with those two little bears when you were little, don't you remember?"

At her prompting, Baymax tilted its head in confusion for a moment, then its eyes grew brighter and brighter:
"Those memories were real, not just my imagination!"

When the little bear was young, he didn't remember much; most of what he did remember were the more unforgettable memories.

She vaguely remembered that she had indeed played with two bear cubs, but Xia Tian never let her get close to other bears. Even when she encountered other mother bears with cubs later, Xia Tian kept her distance.

Over time, she came to believe that the images in her mind were just fantasies.

Summer was amused by her:
"Of course it's true. You met Guo Mi when you were little, and you even ate the fish she caught. Don't you remember?"

Big White was initially quite disappointed:

"I do not remember."

Then, anticipation began to rise again:
"Can I still hang out with them?"

"can."

Summer answered her, but quickly added:
"But not now."

"Why?" Big White was disappointed; she wanted to play with the little bears her age.

Disappointing Little Bear would be too much, so Xia Tian decided to pass the responsibility of answering the question to Guo Mi, since she had mischievously teased Big White during the day. So she leisurely replied:

"Because they are Guo Mi's little bear cubs, you need Guo Mi's permission to do so."

Upon hearing this, Da Bai immediately began searching around eagerly:
"What about Guo Mi? Where is Guo Mi?"

Once the little bear cub recalls his childhood, he naturally feels closer to Guo Mi, and his attitude changes very quickly.

However, her problem was also something that Xia Tian was worried about.

She's now considering whether to follow the scent to find Guo Mi.

Forced to calm down, they waited for nearly half an hour. Just as Xia Tian stood up to follow the scent, a crisp "snap" sounded, and accompanied by a heavy smell of blood, a polar bear bathed in moonlight appeared in the two bears' field of vision.

Big White's eyes lit up, and he was about to go over and ask Guo Mi if he could play with Little Bear, but he stopped when he saw the bloodstains on her body.

Summer's worried gaze fell on her:

"Have we encountered wolves again?"

The round-faced bear smelled much stronger of blood.

Guo Mi looked at the fur on her body, and made a casual "hmm" sound:

"The white wolf and his pack caught up, and we fought for a while." She said it so casually, but just looking at the blood on her body, you knew it wasn't that easy in reality.

Summer sniffed and asked again:
"Are you hurt?"

Guo Mi raised her paw, revealing two deep teeth marks on her thick paw pads:

"I was bitten, by the alpha wolf."

Summer was silent for a long time before saying:
"The alpha wolf is far more vengeful than we imagined; we can't stay here any longer."

Even at this point, the white wolf was still able to catch up with Guo Mi and continue to bite her, which shows that it was extremely vengeful.

Such wolves will not give up so easily; they will surely make a comeback.

Summer glanced at the spot where the little bear had run away and whispered:

"The two bear cubs ran away that way, but the smell is still there. If we follow the smell, we can catch up with them soon."

She meant that the current situation was special, and it was time for Guo Mi's "special training" to come to an end, otherwise accidents could easily happen.

But Guo Mi seemed to have other thoughts. She simply lowered her head, sniffed the blood on her body, and whispered:

"No need to chase them, they'll come back."

Summer remained skeptical of her words:
"After everything that's happened, how did they still have the guts to come back?!"

Guo Mi, however, spoke with certainty:
"I'll be back."

Her confident demeanor made Xia Tian take a deep breath and forcefully suppress her doubts:
"Okay, that's your little bear cub, you decide."

The atmosphere between the two bears was somewhat heavy, until a small, soft, slightly hesitant, childlike voice rang out from beneath them:
"Guo, Guo Mi, can I play with your teddy bear?"

The bear cub's innocent and simple wish broke the heavy atmosphere. Guo Mi paused for a moment, then lowered her head and said with a smile:
"You remembered me?"

Big White hummed in agreement, feeling somewhat guilty.

“I also ate your fish, but I’m sorry, I was too young at the time and don’t remember it very well.”

Guo Mi discovered that all the little bears were very genuine and always very good at apologizing sincerely. They didn't get angry or embarrassed because of their mistakes, which was so cute!
Da Bai hung his head in remorse for a while, but ultimately couldn't resist his playmate's temptation and asked Guo Mi again:
"Can I play with your teddy bear?"

"of course can!"

Guo Mi immediately agreed and took the initiative to introduce herself to Da Bai:

"They are siblings. The older sister is called Salmon and the younger brother is called Fishbone. You can call them by their names next time you see them."

A muffled thud suddenly came from the side. The two bears, one big and one small, looked over. Xia Tian, ​​barely suppressing a laugh, teased Guo Mi:
"The name of your pet bear is as strange as yours."

Guo Mi immediately issued a solemn statement:

"My name isn't strange! It would be strange if all little bears were called Baymax!"

Summer was unconvinced:
"All polar bears are called this when they are young!"

"That's why it's strange!"

Guo Mi suddenly paused, then looked at Xia Tian with a half-smile and said:
"You weren't called Big White when you were little, were you?"

Summer raised its head high:

"So what? My current name sounds much better than Big White's!"

It was supposed to be a fight between the big bears, but in the end only the little bear got hurt.

Big White held its head in its little paws and said sullenly:
"I will choose a name that I like in the future!"

The two bears then remembered that their aggrieved parent was still there. They exchanged an awkward glance and, to take care of the cub, silently ended the argument.

After finally getting a moment of peace, Xia Tian asked again:
Are you sure your two bear cubs will come back?

Guo Mi's gaze was calm:

"They will come back, and they will come back very soon."

Summer sighed deeply:

"Okay, then we'll wait a little longer."
