Shen Rui finally managed to stop laughing, glanced at the registration form, and nodded.
Cheng Anlang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Shen Rui didn't seem to mind.
He lifted Cheng Dahua, who was excitedly yelling "Awoo!", off the table.
It was Cheng Dahua's first time playing with so many mutated beasts, and she was having a blast. Even in Cheng Anlang's arms, her whole body was bouncing around.
The facial recognition registration is very fast; it's done in no time.
Before Cheng Anlang could even pick it up, Cheng Dahua used its own roots to push and jumped up, along with the flowerpot!
Dirt and debris flew everywhere with its movements!
Shen Rui: "Holy crap!"
Yu Ya: "Wow!"
Zhang Mingyu: "..."
Cheng Anlang: Sigh...
Cheng Dahua jumped five meters away and landed on the table with a thud, causing a crack to appear in the already poorly made flowerpot.
Lizard: "Croak!"
Luo Sifen: "Hiss—"
Duck: Quack!
It can even jump!
You really can't judge a book by its cover!
Chapter 14, Section 14: The Cracked Flowerpot
Cheng Dahua's jump sent the hearts of both the people and the animals present leaping out of their chests.
Shen Rui pointed a trembling finger at Cheng Dahua, his voice sharp as he cried out, "What...what happened...how could it jump so high?!"
Zhang Mingyu didn't care about the mud splattered on his clothes. He leaned closer to look at the howling Cheng Dahua and said thoughtfully, "Dahua has no waist, where does it exert its strength? With such a thin flower stem?"
Cheng Anlang stood aside: Don't think about such scientific questions. Besides, you've seen it walk. It's nothing to jump around a bit.
Yu Ya also leaned in and said with interest, "The flower stem is so thin, yet it can lift such a big flowerpot. It can jump high and far from the bottom without any effort. Even Luo Sifen can't compare to it in this respect."
Luo Sifen is a snake, without a waist, so it can only be flung from top to bottom. Although it can jump from bottom to top, it is still quite strenuous.
She couldn't help but clap her hands, her expression filled with praise and admiration: "Truly a hero among flowers, a dragon among flowers!"
"Awooooo!" Cheng Dahua howled excitedly.
Luo Sifen, her tail coiled, nodded her snake head in admiration, hissing, "Hiss—"
The lizard imagined for a moment: Could it jump up...?
It couldn't help but wiggle its legs, but nothing happened.
"Quack quack!" The duck flapped its wings, thinking, "Anyway, I can fly."
Cheng Anlang: ...
Cheng Anlang had classes in the afternoon. The mutated beasts gathered to one side, making "roaring," "croaking," "hissing," and "cawing" sounds, seemingly saying something. Shen Rui sat to the side, and Zhang Mingyu and Yu Ya gave him some more tips on the mutated beast competition. The three of them stayed until Cheng Anlang had to go to class before leaving.
Zhang Mingyu and Yu Ya stood up and took out cured meat, stir-fried shredded meat, and smoked meat from the mini storage compartment, instantly filling the dormitory with a chaotic and fragrant meaty aroma.
"Awooooo!"
"Caw caw caw!"
Cheng Dahua's mouth immediately watered. If she hadn't been holding back, trying to maintain a civilized and polite demeanor in front of the wealthy man, her saliva would have flowed out like a torrent.
Cheng Anlang: "This...this is..."
Zhang Mingyu tore off a small piece of meat and gave it to the duck that pounced on him. He then handed the duck to Shen Rui and turned to Cheng Anlang, saying, "This is my first time visiting you, so I should at least prepare something."
Yu Ya nodded and said, "Yes, yes, and Hua Hua has a competition in a few days, so you and it can both eat it. This meat was hunted by my family on another planet, and it's very delicious."
Cheng Anlang: ...Isn't this backwards? You're here to help, so I should be giving you things, not the other way around.
Cheng Anlang's mouth moved but before he could say anything, Zhang Mingyu actually took something out of the mini storage compartment.
Upon closer inspection, Cheng Anlang discovered it was a bottle of mixed plant nutrient solution!
Zhang Mingyu: "I don't know if Da Hua will suffer from malnutrition if she only eats with her mouth, so I asked a friend to bring her a bottle of nutritional supplement. You can give it to Da Hua to try when you have time."
"Aww!"
Cheng Anlang: "...Thank you."
Why is there even a nutrient solution?!
Zhang Mingyu is fully prepared, Cheng An
Lang was in a dilemma.
He wasn't one to stand on ceremony. Zhang Mingyu and Yu Ya had given him so many gifts, so he should reciprocate. The problem was, he didn't have anything to offer!
Cheng Anlang clenched his fists and said uneasily, "Actually... you've helped me so much today, I should be the one giving to you..."
