My Fierce Tigress Wife Chapter 75

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

A rather strange feeling came over Wang Shan as he repeated line after line.

Big Brother is the Tiger King.

He had no qualms about listening to Big Brother's orders, but why did he have to say it out loud?

He didn't understand… but even so, although he looked down on the delicious-looking food currently standing in front of him, when he thought of how Big Brother was watching them nearby; he nevertheless obediently repeated after Su Ling.

At the same time, Su Ling also gradually gained more and more courage as she recited line after line.

On top of that, as she watched the big tiger in front of her obediently repeating whatever she said, an inexplicable pleasant sensation also sprung up unbidden within her.

Hmph, no matter how ferocious and savage you may be, aren't you still forced to listen to what I say now? Hahaha!

With her spirits raised, her voice became louder and louder and started to sound more and more determined.

Yelp!

“His Majesty, the Tiger King, is heaven and earth itself. He is everything. He is the tigers' guide and leader who will bring a better life to everyone and bring forth the tigers' rise.

“Strict action will be taken against any kind of speech or behavior that disparages the Tiger King…”

At a short distance from where the entrance to his home was, Wang Hu watched them quietly.

He secretly nodded to himself when he saw the tool-fox gradually getting into the mood. Although she was still far from reaching the state of excellence that he'd imagined, this matter wasn't something to be done with undue haste. They could take it slow. After all, it was only natural that foxes would fear tigers.

He mustn't let the tool-fox bite off more than what she could chew.

He believed that the cowardly fox would definitely show him a satisfactory change in herself by the time she was done with educating Old Third.

“Hey, can she really do it?”

Suddenly, Silly Girl's somewhat awkward yet unyielding voice rang out.

Wang Hu's eyes shifted a little. Was that Silly Girl taking the initiative to talk to him?

How rare!

Could she be feeling guilty over what had happened yesterday?

Wang Hu mentally burst into laughter. He was already certain that his guess must be close to the mark. He kept the urge to look at Silly Girl under control and thought for a moment before he replied calmly, “One'd best not underestimate any living beings. Besides, we don't have the time to personally see to this either.”

The moment his calm voice reached Di Baijun, she became rather taken aback and felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Why does something feel kinda wrong with that shameless jerk?

Is he angry over what happened yesterday?

How petty.

She peeked at the jerk somewhat unconfidently as a bit of apprehension arose in her.

Surely, he isn't really angry?

She suddenly felt rather anxious and fretful. Was that jerk really angry?

She gritted her teeth. Her eyes flickered about evasively, and she said in a rather high-spirited tone, “That's… right. Um, your third younger brother… he did pretty well, huh. As the first tiger to break through…”

She spoke in disjointed sentences, in which beating around about the bush as she spoke almost caused Wang Hu's efforts to go down the drain.

Isn't that Silly Girl a little too adorable?

Never mind, never mind. I am a magnanimous tiger. I shall forgive you for not agreeing to my request yesterday.

“He's very outstanding. I'm the one that let him down by not taking good care of him, causing him to suffer so much from his childhood all the way to now.”

Di Baijun's heart softened, though she didn't know what she should say.

Although that shameless jerk was shameless, despicable, stupid, and worthy of death; he valued his family very much—different from other mortal tigers.

One could tell just from how much he doted on Big Treasure and Little Treasure.

She knew that this was because he was an intelligent life form.

She did know how ordinary male mortal tigers behaved.

The jerk was an anomaly because he was born with human intelligence.

Thus, she believed that the jerk really did care about Old Third very much.

This was an intelligent life form's instinct.

For a moment, the frowning Di Baijun felt fairly irritated because she didn't know what she should say.

That jerk. It wasn't as if she had rejected his request yesterday. Did he need to do this?

“Baijun.”

Suddenly, the jerk turned around and looked at her seriously. The sincere look in his eyes made her look away uncomfortably.

“In my heart, you're the one that I care about the most. I will never do anything to you no matter what.

“But Old Third is ultimately my kin. Please, if you want to hit anyone or scold anyone, you can do it to me, but don't bully, insult, or look down on Old Third.”

Then, he turned and walked off dejectedly.

Stunned, Di Baijun remained where she was.

‘The one that he cared about the most in his heart!'

It was as if a thunderclap had boomed in the sky, causing her whole body to feel warm and her mind to blank out.

What's that jerk saying?

She stayed stunned for several seconds before she immediately looked around. It was only when she saw that Big Treasure and Little Treasure didn't think much about it, Su Ling and Old Third weren't even paying attention to them, and the jerk had walked over to the other side… that the bashful look in her eyes lessened a little.

With her breathing out of sorts, she forced herself to calm down and walked over elsewhere.

It was only when she reached an area out of everyone's sight that her mouth turned up into a pout. With her heart in a mess, she raised and twirled her front paw around haphazardly while her tail started to swish about in an irregular pattern.

That jerk. Jerk. What's he saying?

Shameless! He has no sense of shame!

Dammit. Dammit.

She cursed anxiously and fretfully for a brief moment. After she calmed down a little, she became angry again.

When have I ever beaten you up or scolded you? Or even bullied, insulted, or looked down on Old Third?

Am I that kind of tigress?

Hmph!

How can you slander my name?

While she was sulking over there, elsewhere, Wang Hu was taking a few successive deep breaths as he tried to suppress the smile that he was close to losing control over.

If it were possible, he really wished he could take a look at what Silly Girl currently looked like.

Surely, she wouldn't be wishing that she could bury herself in a hole, right?

Highly likely.

For the first time, he discovered that not only was Old Third's arrival the first step to developing his forces, but this brother also acted as a tool-tiger.

Silly Girl valued kinship—this was something that he had known a long time ago. Otherwise, he'd likely have already died a long time ago.

It just so happened that Old Third's arrival could be used to tackle this particular weakness, just like what was happening at the moment where he had utterly routed Silly Girl in just two to three moves.

He probably didn't need to do anything at all after this, and Silly Girl would take the initiative to be nice to him.

Damn, he was such a genius.

He mustn't smile. He absolutely mustn't smile.

Since he had decided to do it, then he had to see it done to the best of his abilities. He mustn't leave any openings.

He took another long deep breath and stabilized his emotions. Then, he began to cultivate.

In the next two days that followed, everything was normal while also seeming not to be.

Su Ling continued to educate Wang Shan.

Big Treasure and Little Treasure continued to watch their cartoons, carefree and without any worries.

The only anomaly was Di Baijun. She peeked at Wang Hu somewhat hesitantly every once in a while, her demeanor hesitant and unsure.

Wang Hu pretended not to notice anything. Every day, he watched Su Ling educate Old Third and then cultivated.

Things like hunting, collecting parcels, cleaning up, and other household chores were all tasks that had gone far away from him by now.

This afternoon…

Yelp!

“All my actions will center on His Majesty, the Tiger King's will… say it louder. How can you not say it loudly?”

Su Ling glared at Wang Shan, which took him by surprise a little.

The fox actually dared to be fierce toward him!

Roar~!

He bared his fangs and let out a soft roar. A baleful aura surged forth from him.

Su Ling, who had still been taking a forceful stance a moment ago, turned limp right away, and the expression on her face turned into a pitiful one.

Yelp!

“T-Third Master…”

Only then did a satisfied Wang Shan put away his ferocious attitude.

Nearby, Wang Hu happened to catch what had happened, and his brows drew together lightly. This wouldn't do.

He looked out of the corner of his eye and saw that Silly Girl was in the midst of cultivation. After a moment's thought, he chose not to step forward.

In the evening, Wang Hu secretly went over to where Old Third was living.

Roar~!

“Big Brother.”

At the sight of Wang Hu, Wang Shan hurriedly greeted him.

Wang Hu gazed at Old Third with a calm and peaceful look in his eyes, making Old Third feel uncomfortable all over. He lowered his head in reverence and took a step back.

It was only after another few seconds that Wang Hu finally spoke.

Roar~!

“You've become impressive, haven't you, Old Third? You don't even listen to what Big Brother says anymore.”

A puzzled Wang Shan blinked. When had he not listened to what Big Brother said?

Roar~!

“I didn't, Big Brother.”

Wang Hu's eyes narrowed. He rushed forward and pinned Old Third down onto the ground. Then, he began to whack Old Third's buttocks with his paw.

Roar~!

Roars of pain rang out right away.

Unmoved, Wang Hu continued to whack him again and again as he spoke coldly.

Roar~!

“You dared to show disrespect even to the teacher that I assigned to you. What did I say at that time? Have you already forgotten?

“Didn't I tell you to do whatever she told you to do? Didn't I? Huh?”

Roar~!

“Big Brother, it hurts. You did, you did. I was in the wrong. Stop hitting me, Big Brother.”

Roar~!

“Since you remember it, then how dare you defy my instructions? You've become bold, haven't you? In my opinion, your memory for pain must be better than your memory for things. Alright, Big Brother will remind you what ‘the eldest brother is like the father' means now. Why don't you cry out now?

“Go on, cry out again. Cry out again, why don't you?

“Hmm, it looks like I must be so gentle that it doesn't even hurt anymore since you're not crying out anymore.”

Roar~!

“Big Brother, I was wrong.”

A good half an hour or so later, Wang Hu went back home feeling fairly refreshed.

He secretly made up his mind. Every single tiger simply had a better memory for pain than a memory for things. He must give them a good thrashing in the future.

Only by doing that would he be able to establish his might and prestige as the Tiger King, as well as enable the education process to continue smoothly.

Tigers were thick and well-built anyway so they could take the beatings.

The moment he got home, he saw Silly Girl and Su Ling looking at him curiously. Evidently, they must have heard Old Third's cries just now.

Wang Hu had already come up with a solution. He walked up to Silly Girl and sighed softly. Then, in a way as though he had expected better from Old Third, he said, “Old Third tried to intimidate Su Ling today. An education process like this definitely won't work so I thought I would go over and talk to him in the evening.

“As we spoke, I brought up his wife and children, and he actually said he didn't know anything. In fact, he didn't even care. Tell me, isn't it justified for me to be angry?

“I tolerated it and also brought up our mother and Old Second. Even so, he continued to behave as though he didn't care. I couldn't stand it anymore so I gave him a beating.

“Sigh! The blows may have landed on his body, but the pain is mine to bear in my heart. I hope he can wake up and learn from this. It's all because I, his eldest brother, hadn't disciplined him properly. I'll definitely discipline him strictly from now on.”

Di Baijun's puzzlement faded away, and she nodded to express her agreement. He deserved a beating if that was the case.

However, when she remembered how the jerk had been behaving the last two days, she looked away and said somewhat awkwardly, “D-don't be too strict with him either. Old Third has only just developed human intelligence. This is… is normal behavior, too.”
