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

Chapter 136 Let's go, she'll be watching us.

When the little bear secretly returned under the moonlight, Xia Tian looked at Guo Mi as if she were looking at a magical creature she had never seen before.

Guo Mi wasn't surprised at all. She hid in the shadows, watching the two bear cubs recklessly try to turn back. Despite trembling with fear, they still forced themselves to look around and call out repeatedly.

"Guo Mi? Guo Mi..."

"Guo Mi, are you still here?"

The little bear's calls were so moving that even Xia Tian was touched. If she was so moved, then Guo Mi was far more tender-hearted towards the cub.

Just when Xia Tian thought she would appear in front of Xiao Xiong, she found that Xiao Xiong was just watching silently, sitting upright.

Not far away, the little male bear lowered his head, trying to find more traces of Guo Mi among the weeds, feces, and bloodstains. The salmon sniffed the same spot again, its eyes glistening with tears.

She smelled it; it really was Guo Mi's scent. So they weren't the lost little bears after all. That roar really was Guo Mi's. She had been following them all along.

The little bear followed the scent and kept circling around in the same spot, completely disoriented and unable to find Guo Mi's location. He could only call out to her again and again.

There was an unexpected incident in Xia Tian's eyes. Those two bear cubs had a fairly keen sense of smell, so how could they not find each other when they were so close?
She glanced at Guo Mi, and then it dawned on her:

"You deliberately?"

She smeared herself with so much wolf blood, and she must have spent a lot of time messing up her scent when she came back, all to confuse the little bear and make it impossible for him to find her.

Guo Mi remained silent.

Fishbone has a very keen sense of smell, and salmon are also very intelligent. They have seen her fight with other bears and, of course, heard her roar.

So from the moment she appeared in front of the wolf pack, she knew that the little bear would realize she hadn't gone far.

Summer almost didn't recognize Guo Mi anymore. She used to feel sorry for the bear cubs when they failed to hunt, but now she was acting out of character, watching the two bear cubs desperately looking for her without showing any concern.
Fishbone began to resent that his nose couldn't be more sensitive so that he could find Guo Mi.

Even though her initial decision was resolute, and she still wanted Guo Mi to return to her home, after everything that happened that night, the moment she realized Guo Mi was by her side, all her courage and strength crumbled. She felt that even if she did nothing, just being by her side would be enough.

But now, even though they know Guo Mi is nearby, they can't find her.

Fishbone still refused to give up, searching almost every corner. Finally, dejected, it looked at the trampled, leaning weeds rotting in the mud and murmured a sentence with a nasal tone.
“Guo Mi…”

It was already late at night. Thick clouds obscured the moon, and the world suddenly darkened, with everything shrouded in a dark shadow.

The chirping of insects echoes once again in this open space, as if it were an unknown future, repeating again and again, but it is always the same sound, with no response.

The two little bears felt empty inside and just sat there blankly.

A long, drawn-out wolf howl suddenly came from afar, startling the little bear. Its fur tightened, and almost instinctively it scanned its surroundings with anxious and panicked eyes, fearing that dozens of wolves with gaping jaws would leap out of the bushes at any moment.

Fishbone looked around frantically, desperately wanting to see that familiar figure, his voice breaking into fragments:

"Guo Mi, Guo Mi..."

"Fishbone." The salmon called to him from behind, startling him so much that he jumped up from the ground, gasping for breath.

The salmon was helpless because she knew that the fishbone was timid by nature. Even if he fought back to survive when surrounded by wolves, once he was out of danger, the fear would overwhelm him. It would take him a long time to get used to the shock, just like when he saw Caesar kill his own kind.

The little bear's lonely and helpless appearance was reflected in the eyes of the two big bears. Big White, who had been dozing off against Summer, was also awakened by the little bear's cries.

She was very perceptive and could sense that something was off after waking up, so she stayed obediently by her mother's side and didn't rush to play with the two little bears. Xia Tian kept looking at Guo Mi with an inquisitive gaze.

Guo Mi sat there quietly watching the bear from the beginning, and didn't move no matter how many times the bear called her. Xia Tian felt that Guo Mi was probably waiting for something.

Fishbone called pitifully to Guo Mi for a long time. Every time a wolf howled in the distance, it would tense up and its fur would bristle, and its voice would become more anxious and pleading.

But Guo Mi never responded to him, and in the end, Little Bear had no choice but to give up.

The salmon felt helpless too, but it didn't show it to the fishbone. It simply stayed quietly by his side, listening to the fishbone ask in despair:

"Does Guo Mi not want us anymore?"

On this one question alone, she spoke with almost no pause, her tone resolute:
"of course not!"

If she didn't want them, Guo Mi would have returned to the forest long ago. Why would she continue to follow them, and why would she charge into the wolf pack for them?

The salmon couldn't understand why, even though they had already discovered Guo Mi, she refused to see them.

At this moment, the clouds were blown away by the wind, and the bright moonlight first peeked out, and then shone on the earth, illuminating the little bear's whole world again.

The salmon watched as the grass, trampled by the wolves and buried low in the mud, its branches bent low, broke free of its restraints and suddenly sprang up, straightening its branches again. In the moonlight, it freely stretched out its scarred and fragile leaves, bursting forth with vitality amidst the chaos.

The little bear's eyes sparkled, and he suddenly laughed, looking down at his younger brother and saying:
"Let's go, Fishbone."

At that moment, Xia Tian turned his head and saw that Guo Mi also smiled in that instant, her eyes sparkling as if they were filled with a sky full of stars.

Fishbone looked up at the salmon, his tone very reluctant:

"I don't want to leave." He hadn't seen Guo Mi yet, and he didn't want to leave.

The salmon wanted to lick his little ear, but couldn't reach it, so it settled for licking his nose instead, its tone light and cheerful:
"Do you still remember our dream? To become a qualified adult bear like Guomi!"

The fish bones began to loosen:
"But……"

However, becoming a qualified adult bear does not mean he wants to give up seeing Guo Mi.

The salmon winked at him:

"It's okay, Guo Mi will always be watching over us."

Fishbone was initially confused, then realized something, his eyes brightened, and he stood up and agreed:
"it is good!"

Summer was completely bewildered. She couldn't understand what the two little bears were saying, what they meant by looking at them, or why they had to agree.

Guo Mi was all smiles, her eyes overflowing with joy and tenderness.

Fishbone looked around again and said loudly:

"Guo Mi, I don't know if you're watching, but I want you to believe me. I will become a good little bear!"

Don't strive to be the most powerful or the bravest; simply strive to be the best version of yourself.

This is what Guo Mi most looks forward to seeing the little bear look like when it grows up.
