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

Chapter 144 I want to be the first male bear to be a father!
In the next instant, Slok confirmed Guo Mi's terrifying conjecture.

The male bear muttered:

"You know I wouldn't hurt her, she's my little bear too..."

Guo Mi's eyes widened. Even though she had some guesses in her mind, it still took her a long time to process what she heard.

Summer, ...and Slok?
Her gaze fell on Summer, then on Slok two seconds later, jumping back and forth several times, still unable to believe it.

Slok actually has bear cubs?!

She only believed what Slok said for the first couple of days, but after spending more time with him, she stopped taking his words seriously.

After all, apart from his large physique, Slok is no different from a bear cub.

She thought he was lying to comfort her, but she never expected it to be true!

No, no, no, that's not the point. The important thing is that his little bear was born at the same time as Xia Tian?
This is too explosive. Putting everything else aside, just putting Summer and Slok together makes Guo Mi feel a sense of disharmony.

After all, Xia Tian herself has a strong personality. Although she is not combative, she is decisive and independent. In Guo Mi's mind, she is exactly what Caesar would be like after he had rid her of all her bad habits!
It's so surreal that these two bears are together; it's unbelievable for any bear!
She first looked at Slok with suspicion. Could it be that he had coerced or bribed her...?

But as soon as the idea came to mind, Guo Mi immediately dismissed it.

There's no other reason than that Summer looks like he could take on ten Sloths; if it were Caesar, it would be more believable.

The thought of Slok imitating Caesar sent a chill down Guo Mi's spine, and she immediately banished the bizarre idea from her mind.

If we rule out the possibility that Sloc was forcibly coerced, then there is only one possibility: Summer chose Sloc out of his own free will!

Looking at the two bears facing off not far away, Guo Mi began to feel anxiously curious about what had happened between them.

Sure enough, gossip is something etched deep into the human soul, and even turning into a bear can't hide it. The giant fur ball curled up an evil smile.

Summer on the other side also laughed, laughing out of anger.

She looked Slok up and down, repeating:
"Your teddy bear?"

Slok shrank back, sensing something was off about the tone, and immediately cowered. He wanted to answer "yes," but didn't dare.

Summer has no intention of letting him off the hook:
"Have you ever hunted prey for the bear cub?"

"You live in the Arctic with your bear cub?"

"Have you ever taught bears how to hunt?"

One question after another rained down on him, leaving Slok dizzy and disoriented. Summer sneered:
"Remember this, this is my little bear!"

She emphasized her words and repeated herself:
"mine!"

She was so cool that Guo Mi was amazed and almost exclaimed "Wow!"

Summer glanced at Slok, snorted coldly, and was about to leave with Big White when she heard Slok whispering probingly behind her:
"Then, shall I go hunting now and bring back food?"

Summer stopped in her tracks and turned around to look at Slok as if he were a monster.

Slok, completely unaware of this, continued:
“I can also protect little… uh, I mean, I can also teach bear cubs to hunt…”

As he spoke, he gave Xia Tian a fawning smile:

"Is this okay?"

However, these words were merely remedial measures for Guo Mi and nothing special, but for Xia Tian, ​​they were like a tidal wave.

These words were beyond the polar bear's comprehension, and she became alert almost instantly, her eyes flashing with ferocity as she looked at Slok.

"What do you mean? You want to take the teddy bear from me?"

Seeing her get angry, Slok was startled and quickly tried to explain:

"No, that's not what I meant!"

Summer's patience had run out; baring its teeth, it slammed its claws heavily on the ground.
"Then what do you mean?!" Slok tried to explain, but Summer didn't give him a chance:
"Whatever you mean, stay away from me and Big White, or I won't be so polite next time I see you!"

After the mother bear finished speaking, she glanced at Guo Mi as a greeting, and then, without any hesitation, turned around and disappeared into the thick fog with Da Bai.

"Eh--"

Slok wanted to chase after them, but remembering what Summer had just said, he had to stop and watch Summer and Little Bear disappear into the thick fog. Finally, he sat down in frustration, feeling utterly lost.

Guo Mi looked to the side and saw another dark figure sitting in the fog.

It was Caesar; I wonder how long he'd been watching.

Slok collapsed heavily to the ground with a dull thud, his eyes half-closed in a listless manner.

Guo Mi couldn't help but feel sorry for his dejected appearance, so she walked towards him, with the two little bears following closely at her feet.

Slok glanced at the three bears approaching him and said weakly:

"Guo Mi, it's been a long time. I've finally caught up with you. You have no idea that Caesar has been throwing a tantrum for days because he lost you."

Guo Mi turned around and looked at the bear sitting motionless in the fog, who seemed to have no intention of coming over at all. After a few seconds, she looked away.

Caesar did say he would follow her, but after a long time they didn't meet, she thought he had given up, but she didn't realize he had lost her.

Judging from his current appearance, he's probably sulking again.

However, Guo Mi had no intention of coaxing him, because she had repeatedly told the male bear not to follow her anymore, but her words had been ignored.

Slok let out another heavy sigh:
"Ugh."

His voice was very dejected:
"I really didn't mean to take the teddy bear. I just wanted to try to take care of it. How could this happen?"

Guo Mi tilted her head and said with a smile:
"It's hard being a mother bear and raising cubs. A mother bear has to put in a lot of effort to keep her cubs alive, even though you're Baymax's father..."

"What is a father?" Slok interrupted Guo Mi, asking with a look of confusion in his eyes.

Guo Mi was stunned for a moment, and finally realized where the problem lay.

Polar bears don't have a father-son relationship at all!

She was so used to human family systems that she overlooked the habits of polar bears.

Normally, polar bears end their mating season. If they meet again, those with a good temper will treat each other as good friends and play for a while, while those with a bad temper will directly attack each other with their claws.

Male bears are even more cruel to their cubs, killing them indiscriminately regardless of whether they are their own.

A polar bear like Slok who actively wants to be a father is as rare and unbelievable as a polar bear appearing on the African savanna.

No wonder the reaction was so strong in the summer.

The fact that she didn't mistakenly believe that Slok was trying to trick the bear into providing him with food supplies was already the greatest affirmation of Slok's character!
If it were Caesar, it would probably be a scene of carnage and bloodshed by now, a fight to the death.

Guo Mi looked at Slok with pity and then explained the situation to him:
"Dabai was born after you and Xia Tian mated, so Xia Tian is the mother and you, as the male bear, are the father."

Slok seemed to understand, but his eyes lit up.

"Oh, I see. So... I'm Baymax's dad now!"

Guo Mi had to pour cold water on his enthusiasm:

“Slok, no male polar bear wants to be the father of a cub. Male bears only want to kill cubs. Summer is very likely to not allow you to get close to Big White.”

Slok was somewhat uneasy:
"But you also let me play with the salmon bones."

Guo Mi twitched her lips, because she wasn't a pure bear.

But the male bear quickly displayed his optimistic nature and said with great interest:
“It’s okay. You can be the first mother bear in the Arctic to adopt a cub, and I can be the first male bear in the Arctic to become a father!”
