Beast World: I Became the Little Villain's Mommy

Talking to Wang Liang was nerve-wracking for Tai Seng.

Even though he was a mature male Beastman, Tai Seng’s tail drooped, and his ears turned into airplane ears.

Wang Liang gave him a chilly glance but did not mock or joke about him.

However, the first thing Wang Liang said shocked Tai Seng so much that his ears perked up.

"How long do you plan on playing outside? Aren’t you going home?"

The silver wolf Beastman’s tail stiffened, and each strand of silver fur bristled.

Suddenly, he stammered, "Wh-what did you say?"

Zheng Xiong, the snake Beastman, had a cold expression. "It’s been two years since you ran away from home. It’s about time you stopped these tantrums."

Tai Seng was speechless. Was Wang Liang asking him to come home? These words truly took him by surprise.

Tai Seng’s eyes quickly drooped again, followed by his ears. "Wang, I’m not like you. Si Yan doesn’t want to keep me around."

Wang Liang raised an eyebrow. "When did she ever say she didn’t want to keep you?"

Tai Seng laughed self-mockingly. "She has said it, many times. She said that in her life, she only plans to have one Beast Husband!"

The snake Beastman nodded. "Right. So what?"

Tai Seng was at a loss for words.

Wang Liang asked, "Is your goal to become Yan Yan’s Beast Husband?"

Tai Seng blurted out, "No, I’m not. I..."

Wang Liang’s gaze suddenly turned icy. "Do you have a death wish?"

"If you have thoughts you shouldn’t have, I will kill you on the spot."

Tai Seng was so anxious his fur bristled. "I don’t! I’m not!"

Wang Liang’s detached demeanor made Tai Seng somewhat uncomfortable.

His ears and tail drooped once more. He looked nothing like the renowned silver wolf of the Beast World. At that moment, he just looked like a wolf abandoned by his family.

"I just want to stay at home. I just want to be with my family!" he cried out. "I’ve never felt that I must have a mate. I can distinguish feelings; I know that’s kinship... I, I just want family!"

The last sentence was nearly shouted by Tai Seng.

Wang Liang looked at him quizzically. "So what are you struggling with?"

Tai Seng, who had just lost control of his emotions, found himself speechless.

"I am the Zheng Xiong, and you are a Guardian Beast," Wang Liang stated. "Since neither Yan Yan nor I have said otherwise, as a Guardian Beast, you don’t seem to have the right to leave without saying goodbye."

A bit dazed, Tai Seng remained silent.

His tail hung low, his ears twitching a couple of times.

According to the hierarchical customs of Beast World Families, since he had willingly become a Guardian Beast, he indeed had to obey the Mistress and the Zheng Xiong. It seemed he truly didn’t have the right to wander off on his own without a word.

"Don’t want to go home?" Wang Liang frowned.

Tai Seng’s emotions were like a roller coaster. Suddenly, he said, "But my guardian totem is gone. Si Yan expelled me from the family."

"Oh," Wang Liang appeared nonchalant. "My partner totem is gone too."

Tai Seng stared in confusion.

Wang Liang continued, "Yan Yan visited the Divine Temple. When she came back, she’d lost her memory, and the totems disappeared too. But you can feel it carefully—though the totem is temporarily gone, the connection is still there."

Tai Seng was astounded and hurried to focus on that feeling.

"You have not been expelled," Wang Liang concluded directly.

Tai Seng’s heart began to pound wildly.

He hadn’t been expelled? He still had a home?

Tai Seng looked up at Wang Liang.

Was Wang Liang’s tone, rough as it was, truly an attempt to persuade him to return home? After so many years away, the family’s Zheng Xiong still thought of him. Their family’s Zheng Xiong really was extraordinary.

Tai Seng’s eyes gradually lit up.

Wang Liang, seeing the silver wolf Beastman’s tail wagging excessively and his eyes shining far too brightly, suddenly frowned with vexation.

Had he made a mistake? But it didn’t matter anymore. Yan Yan had lost her memory, and there was no one to protect her when he went hunting. He now needed someone to hunt and look after the children.

Wang Liang turned and left. Tai Seng promptly followed.

The little wolf, who had been standing at a distance so as not to disturb the adults’ conversation, suddenly saw his teacher, Tai Seng, move and hurriedly chased after them.

When they saw Si Yan again, she had plucked several long leaves and was weaving various little toys with them.

Her hands were very nimble. She used to be able to weave mats and carry baskets, and now she could make these even more exquisite little toys.

Unlike the males, who were generally big and clumsy, she could do such delicate work.

After Si Yan gave the little woven eagles, butterflies, and other toys to the two cubs, they happily ran off with their new playthings.

Suddenly, Si Yan looked up and saw two very handsome males approaching.

She blinked, her eyes sparkling, looking as if she were mentally pairing them up. "Are you guys gay?"

Wang Liang was speechless.

The curious Tai Seng asked, "What is ’gay’?"

"...You don’t want to know," Wang Liang replied.

Tai Seng, who was especially attentive to Wang Liang’s words, immediately suppressed his curiosity.

Wang Liang looked down at the grass-woven toys the cubs were playing with, and a sudden pang hit him.

The toys Yan Yan made were really beautiful. But he didn’t have any.

He squatted down and started to engage with the cubs.

Tai Seng felt somewhat at a loss, still unsure how to face Si Yan, a slight embarrassment coloring his features.

But Si Yan spoke first. "Hello. When I saw you earlier, it seemed like you were troubled."

Tai Seng immediately looked towards Si Yan, unsure whether to answer yes or no.

Si Yan kept smiling and said, "Now it seems like some of your worries have dissipated, but not all. Can you talk to me about them?"

Tai Seng’s heart thumped wildly.

Suddenly, Si Yan said softly, "Do you fancy that cold-blooded Beastman from earlier?"

Tai Seng looked utterly confused.

Si Yan continued, "But from what I’ve seen, he’s straight. You might be in for some heartbreak."

The eighteen-year-old Si Yan was still a genuine fujoshi.

With two such handsome males exuding such a peculiar atmosphere between them, she naturally began to ship them with great enthusiasm.

This pair might be a bit angsty, Yan Yan sighed to herself.

Tai Seng was dumbfounded.

"Why don’t you tell me about it," Si Yan coaxed. "Maybe you’ll feel much better after speaking."

"I..." Tai Seng lowered his gaze. "I’m not sure if I should go home."

"Why not go back?"

"My family... they might not want me."

"Are they not good to you?"

"No, no! They are very good to me, really, especially good."

Tai Seng recalled the countless little moments from the past. They only ever made him feel warm. They were all so good to him. It was he who wasn’t good enough.

"If that’s the case, why not go home?"

"I..."

"Is it that you don’t want to go home yourself?"

"No, I want to go back."

"Well, since it’s your home and you want to return, then you should go back."

Tai Seng hesitated. "Can I really go back?"

Si Yan smiled. "Judging by your expression, you must really love your home. It’s probably a very warm and lovely place."

Tai Seng nodded vigorously.

"You seem to have been away from home for quite a while. I think your family must miss you by now. I think you should go home."

Tai Seng’s eyes widened slightly.

"Will they really miss me?"

Si Yan’s eyes curved into a smile. "Mhm!"

Tai Seng’s eyes glowed even brighter, a galaxy-like brilliance instantly flaring within their silver depths.

His ears twitched slightly, and his tail wagged even more joyfully.

Go home. Go home right now!
