Stop Eyeing My Pretty Caretaker - Chapter 4

Chapter 4

After thinking it over, Jian Chen decided the most likely scenario was that the man had too many suitors and was using the marriage certificate to ward them off.

Or, maybe Yesting wanted to request marriage leave and was afraid his superior wouldn’t believe him, so he just showed the “little red book” directly? Haha, just a guess.

In any case, it could never be a display of affection.

Jian Chen’s ideological awareness was quite high. After pausing for a long time, he rolled out of bed, found his own marriage certificate, and snapped a photo.

With an angle similar to Yesting’s, the upload was successful.

—As a party in a contract marriage, it was never wrong to be a bit professional.

As for his colleagues at the research institute… Jian Chen came to terms with it; they would find out sooner or later anyway.

Early the next morning, Jian Chen was first woken up by the cry of the panda cub.

He turned his head and found the little guy sticking its head out from the pet habitat, revealing its round head and dark eye circles, looking at him while giving a big yawn.

Pale pink paw pads rested on the edge of the habitat. Dundu’s eyes were hidden within the black circles, sparkling with spirit.

Jian Chen was a bit surprised. For a panda as small as Dundu, even crawling was difficult, let alone managing to prop itself up.

An infant panda’s ears are positioned further back, making the small head appear white and round. When it opens its mouth, its tongue unconsciously sticks out a bit, as if it were cutely acting spoiled, giving off a cheerful vibe.

Jian Chen’s heart trembled from the cuteness, but in the next second, due to an unstable lower body, Dundu stood for only three seconds before rolling down.

It even tumbled twice inside the habitat.

Jian Chen quickly got up, ran to the habitat, and scooped the little guy up.

Unexpectedly, Dundu’s expression was calm and elegant. Its four limbs stretched out, and it gave a little hum.

Jian Chen held the little bear and looked it over. After confirming it was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed a panda’s body was truly thick and sturdy, resistant to rolling and falling—worthy of being a future tree-climbing expert.

…Speaking of climbing trees, Jian Chen was a bit troubled.

Pandas have vigorous physical strength and love to play. Climbing trees used to be their way of protecting themselves from intruders, but over time, they preferred napping up there—one leg propped up, head pillowed on a branch, paws covering their eyes, in a classic “old man” sitting posture.

Of course, these were all images Jian Chen had seen on TV.

But Dundu would eventually grow to that stage. Jian Chen began to worry; he was currently sharing this apartment with a roommate. It had three bedrooms and two living rooms. Never mind flowers, grass, or trees—even having too many or too long bamboo stalks would place quite a burden on the apartment.

Not to mention the day Dundu would transform from a panda cub into a giant panda.

Jian Chen checked his savings. His goal was to buy a house with a small woods in the capital of China warm in spring and cool in summer, with bamboo shade blotting out the sun. It would probably require him to work without sleep or rest for another seventy years… no, eighty years.

“…”

Reality was so damn cruel.

That was why Jian Chen’s biggest dream was to open a zoo. If he did that, everything could be resolved naturally.

Of course, the dream of becoming a zoo director seemed even more ethereal and distant.

Since the unknown creatures in the research institute’s “New Species Area” were speculated by experts to have “no possibility of intelligent evolution,” the funding for Jian Chen’s institute had been cut and squeezed, becoming increasingly tight. The employees were all complaining, and three resignation letters had already been handed in this year alone.

Hmph, if these mythological animals with extremely strong combat power cannot be truly applied to war, then their birth is meaningless. It’s better to euthanize them as soon as possible.”

This was a statement once published by people from the Academy of Sciences.

Jian Chen also finally understood that the premise for the Academy of Sciences creating these mythological species dragons, merfolk, phoenixes was not as living beings, but as absolute combat weapons.

If that was the case, Jian Chen would rather they never evolved intelligence.

Jian Chen sighed and touched the little bear’s ears: “Dundu, what should we do? We’re too poor.

Dundu raised its head and gave a spirited cry.

Does a panda cub have worries?

No, it has no worries; it only wants to eat.

In the morning, Jian Chen arrived at the research institute as agreed. He quickly changed into his work uniform, put on long white gloves, and walked toward the animal area.

Dundu was placed in his office, looked after by an intelligent robot.

AI robots these days were increasingly advanced; even a task like caring for a cub could be done in an orderly fashion instead of by a human.

Before leaving, Jian Chen set it to cradle mode. The robotic arm automatically rocked the little panda’s bed gently, played music, and would monitor the cub’s awakening at regular intervals to ensure Dundu was served a bowl of milk on time.

Even so, Jian Chen was still uneasy, unable to stop himself from glancing at the watch monitor every few minutes.

Jian Chen finally understood the common ailment of becoming a parent: constantly worrying about the cub, which could be called a “burden of happiness.”

As soon as Jian Chen walked into the animal area, a student at the front caught sight of him and walked over excitedly, holding up a watch: “Teacher Jian, you got married?!”

Although Jian Chen was a professor at the research institute and had strong professional abilities, because he was so young and had a warm, gentle aura, most of the time—even in his work uniform he looked like a student who had just entered society.

Rather than a sense of majesty, his temperament made people unable to help but feel close to him.

So, he had a good relationship with his students.

Yu Lili said in shock: “So the leave was for getting married? Why didn’t you tell us!”

Jian Chen knew he couldn’t hide it. When he first woke up this morning and turned on his watch, messages had flooded in like a tide, simply because he had changed his avatar.

It wasn’t surprising; after all, this was mar-riage!

He could be considered to have quietly done something big.

When Jian Chen recalled it himself, it felt quite surreal.

When the subject was brought up, a bit of sweetness inexplicably welled up in his heart. Whether it was because of Yesting, or Dundu, or both, Jian Chen said: “I only decided recently, I didn’t have time to tell you.”

Yu Lili said with a mournful face: “Why didn’t you post a status? Let us see the ‘Teacher-Madam’ (Teacher’s spouse).”

A student nearby echoed: “Yeah, Teacher, is ‘Teacher-Madam’ very pretty? Was it free love or a matched marriage? Give us a little hint.”

“Someday let ‘Teacher-Madam’ come to the research institute and give us a surprise!”

Jian Chen thought of that tall, cold man; he should be considered handsome and beautiful.

So he chose his answer: “Um… we are a matched marriage. When he has free time in the future, he might come here to take a look.”

He didn’t know about a “surprise,” but a “scare” was definitely unavoidable.

Chen Qiu took advantage of the gap in their conversation to rush over and “borrow” Jian Chen away.

As they walked, Xiao Chen picked up the feeding record manual and said dejectedly: “In short, the research institute is a mess right now. Other breeders have already reported that the animals they care for have also started to rebel, so you’re going to be quite busy today.”

He moved his fingers to show Jian Chen the 3D regional distribution on the light screen: “Look, this area, here, and here all need you to go there.”

Xiao Chen said with quite some regret: Teacher Jian, you probably won’t have time to go to the New Species Area today, even though those monsters are probably going crazy wanting to see you.

Shocked by the intensity of the work, Jian Chen said bitterly:

“I want to apply for a raise.”

Chen Qiu sighed, imitating the director’s tone: “You go ahead and apply; if you get a single cent more, I lose.”

Jian Chen was amused.

After that, Jian Chen couldn’t laugh anymore.

The Endangered Animal Research Institute covered 300 square kilometers and was divided from Area A to Area F. It would take Jian Chen a whole day just to take the internal cable car.

Coaxing cubs to drink milk, feeding medicine tablets to wild beasts, grooming big guys with tangled fur, getting birds to fly onto his palm to check their claws and wings without using tranquilizers… Jian Chen busied himself all the way until 1:00 PM, not even having time to eat.

Watching Dundu on the monitor prop up its body, give a soft cry, and look around blankly, Jian Chen felt a heavy blow to his heart. The hand-held pancake in his hand was no longer fragrant.

Xiao Chen was very apologetic: “Teacher Jian, you must be pretty busy with the honeymoon phase, right? I even disturbed your vacation. Will ‘Teacher-Madam’ complain about me? Wuuu, I am a sinner.

Jian Chen thought to himself: No.

That man probably wasn’t born with that kind of emotion.

And the “honeymoon” wasn’t busy; it was mainly that he couldn’t step away from taking care of Dundu.

Jian Chen thought that he and Yesting were probably the most low-maintenance couple in China. They picked up the cub yesterday, got the license in the evening—so was the next step moving in together?

It was very efficient.

However, the matter of living together still depended on both parties. Jian Chen didn’t mind, but if Yesting was unwilling, maybe they really would reach the stage of taking turns caring for the cub? Then this marriage… would indeed be quite “official.”

Each getting what they needed, no feelings involved.

After Jian Chen finished comforting Xiao Chen, he inserted the straw into the black rice porridge and took a silent sip.

He deliberately left the most troublesome fierce beasts for the afternoon. Chen Qiu followed closely behind Jian Chen, arriving at “Area F,” which emitted a cold, damp aura, was heavily fenced, and had tightly closed gates.

If the organisms in the research institute were classified by danger level, the little guys in Area A were the most well-behaved and clingy, mostly housing the most approachable animals.

As the letters went further back, the uncertainty of the beasts themselves expanded, becoming uncontrollable by humans—for example, the famous Area F. Once you stepped inside, your personal safety was no longer guaranteed from that moment on.

However, the most dangerous place was ultimately the “New Species Area.”

Fortunately, they didn’t have to go to the New Species Area today. Xiao Chen touched his fragile little heart. As for that place, let alone himself—even when Teacher Jian went in, he would silently break a sweat for him.

Jian Chen turned the key, and the iron fence opened with a clang.

The creature lurking in the darkness was suddenly alerted. It slowly raised its head and tensed its body.

It sniffed its nose, as if confirming whether there was a familiar scent.

Chen Qiu looked at the empty trees and rocks around them, with dark shadows making it feel as if countless pairs of beastly eyes were silently watching them.

His legs were a bit weak. Normally, no one would dare enter the ecological zone without wearing protective gear. If Jian Chen wasn’t in front, who would be so reckless as to venture alone into the habitat of a snow leopard?

And today’s goal was to give an injection to the snow leopard with the coldest and most violent temper—Kyle.

Kyle was a young snow leopard rescued from the Cyril Primeval Forest a year ago.

Having survived in a brutal ecological environment for several years, this male beast still possessed a wildness that was difficult to tame and absolute strength.

Gentle, cute, and a series of other beautiful qualities used to describe beasts could be said to be nowhere to be found on Kyle.

It was said that within one year, he had attacked staff members four times. Only by using a tranquilizer gun could they barely make this dangerous beast release its claws, slowly squint its eyes, and retract its killing teeth and thick tongue.

So Xiao Chen didn’t say it out loud, but he secretly brought a tranquilizer gun that took effect in one second, just in case.

Jian Chen lowered his body slightly, half-propping himself with his legs, trying to minimize the unfamiliar chill on himself. He put down the food bowl and gently tapped a strip of meat with a small spoon: Kyle, I brought your favorite blue sheep meat.

“Long time no see, want to come out and greet an old friend?”

The smell of meat gradually became fragrant and widespread.

Jian Chen’s voice wasn’t loud, but it was just enough to reach all the hidden habitat outposts nearby. It was warm like cold spring water. Xiao Chen silently marveled; hearing this coaxing voice, even he wanted to be reborn as a cub to be raised by Teacher Jian.

The air was silent for a long time.

A short while later, there was a slight sound in the grass.

Chen Qiu gripped the tranquilizer gun, his heart thumping hard.

In the next second, a huge figure pounced out, swirling a gust of wind as it charged toward Jian Chen.

Suddenly, before Jian Chen had time to turn around, he was pinned to the ground by a very strong force. Beneath him was damp, soft grass. He gave a slight cry, but the expected pain didn’t come to his back or the back of his head.

Instead, a thick paw pad stepped next to his ear, imprinting a complete five-claw mark in the mud, trapping him in place, unable to move.

Chen Qiu was scared out of his wits the professor was going to be pinned down and eaten by the snow leopard!!

He quickly raised the tranquilizer gun, decisively about to pull the trigger.

But then he suddenly heard Jian Chen’s voice: “Wait, Xiao Chen! Don’t shoot.”

Chen Qiu froze, his hand stopping accordingly.

Looking closely, it seemed the snow leopard… had not opened its mouth to bite down.

Instead, it lowered its head, its nose close to Jian Chen’s neck, sniffing gently.

The sharp teeth and delicate skin were separated by only a fraction of an inch. Even the calmest breeder would get goosebumps because of the other’s slightest rise and fall of breath.

He didn’t know how Teacher Jian felt, but Xiao Chen’s legs were weak.

Kyle squinted his eyes slightly, seemingly confirming the scent.

He bowed his head and licked Jian Chen’s cheek, his claw stepping a bit deeper. Afterward, with a somber face, he stood up straight and gave a long, low roar.

Jian Chen’s cheek hurt a bit from the licking. He frowned slightly but didn’t dodge, because he could faintly sense that this beast seemed not to be a threat to him.

Instead, it was more like anger? A complaint?

After all, he had been on leave for three days.

In the past, he would come to see Kyle every day. Jian Chen would often call “Kyle, Kyle” and use tender lamb meat as a proper temptation, frequently entering Area F tirelessly to disturb the snow leopard’s peaceful life.

Even though Kyle never gave him a glance even for feeding, the “little ancestor” would only slowly get up, step on his paw pads, and come to the bowl to sweep it clean after Jian Chen had left.

He didn’t expect that after one day of not seeing him it would feel like three years?

Jian Chen was also a bit surprised; after all, this snow leopard had indeed never been close to him.

This series of actions also left Chen Qiu stunned.

If an adult snow leopard wasn’t raised by hand, how could it have such… intimate behavior with a human? Their licking of food was basically eating until only bones were left, and finally using their tongue to slowly lick away the residue on the bones.

Jian Chen seemed very gratified. Seeing Kyle swishing his tail to leave, he instead picked up the syringe, pushed the medicine, and chased after him with an excited face.

Chen Qiu: “…”

Just what kind of teacher am I following?

Kyle found a comfortable, shady spot and lay down lazily. His tail lay on the ground, occasionally curling up and then settling down.

While it was napping, Jian Chen found a spot that wasn’t too bothersome and squatted down obediently. Holding the injection needle, he looked at the big snow leopard and coaxed softly: “I won’t take leave anymore, little ancestor.”

“As a return gift, let me give you an injection, okay?”

“…”

Kyle squinted his eyes slightly and looked at him, his blue eyes like a pool of cold, quiet lake water.

Xiao Chen thought: Holy crap, in the next step, Teacher Jian won’t just start, will he?

Hey, he really did!

Teacher Jian just held the needle in one hand and grasped Kyle’s paw with the other, bringing it toward himself.

Chen Qiu was so shocked he almost lost his voice.

And the big snow leopard actually had no reaction. Only at the moment the needle tip entered did he show the instinctive reaction of a beast under attack, baring his fangs and giving a roar.

Afterward, he took the opportunity to yawn, lowered his head, and licked the fur under his neck.

Chen Qiu: I am completely dumbfounded.

Jian Chen stood up, holding an empty vial of medicine in his hand. He threw it into the waste basket and brushed the dust off his hands: “Shall we go?”

Chen Qiu followed Jian Chen deeper into Area F in a daze. Until they entered the next area, he was still immersed in the trance from just now.

Looking up, he found Jian Chen had stopped in front of a huge glass window.

Inside the glass window was a quite spectacular scene.

Countless creatures wearing black hard shells were crawling on the wild ground inside the window. Pairs of eyes tinged with gold seemed to notice the movement on the other side of the glass. They showed a burst of abnormality, their beautiful and pure black shells like black armor, rustling in agitation.

Chen Qiu snapped back to reality and explained: “The situation with the black-shelled insects was very dangerous yesterday. The glass window was about to break, so some security guards and I urgently moved them out of the safety zone.”

“Area F is still more suitable for them,” Chen Qiu said with lingering fear.

“They really banged on the glass window?” Jian Chen expressed doubt.

In his memory, this was a group of harmless little guys, and very organized the most obedient and non-aggressive insects among the organisms Jian Chen had come into contact with.

Xiao Chen: “It’s true!! Right after you took leave!”

“Teacher should be careful. This kind of insect has no emotion at all and is very aggressive. Yesterday a security brother’s hand was cut with a long gash.”

“Their forelimbs are very sharp.”

“Moreover, their senses are sensitive, they aren’t afraid of light or heat, and they are very united. If they can evolve, placed in the interstellar era, they would definitely be very powerful warriors.”

Xiao Chen started to pull ideas from thin air: “Just like… the Zerg in movies?”

Hearing the word “warrior,” Jian Chen’s expression changed slightly. He didn’t speak, but instead raised his hand and, through the elastic cloth, reached into the sampling glass dome.

As he reached in his hand, the other end of the glass dome would automatically open. The opening could only accommodate one insect to pass through.

Then suddenly, from the passage inside the glass window, a black-shelled insect flew out. It had a black back shell and a flexible body. What was quite striking was that it actually had golden patterns on its body.

This was a very imposing species. Unlike those ordinary insects that usually make people jump three feet high, the image of these black-shelled insects was actually… a bit cool?

In any case, they were the “handsome guys” among insects.

The rest of the countless black-shelled insects didn’t move. They carefully clung to the position where Jian Chen was, avoiding the narrow glass dome, very organizedly and quietly lining up automatically.

Afterward, that most special black-shelled insect slowly landed on Jian Chen’s palm.

This was likely the leader of this group of insects.

Looking closely, its back shell was also smooth and shiny, and it had the sharpest forelimbs, appearing to have the power to cut through steel.

Chen Qiu suddenly didn’t want to see the following scene. After all, Jian Chen’s hands were very good-looking; he didn’t want to see such hands cut and bleeding, but he couldn’t stop it.

Then, he heard Jian Chen’s voice slowly and softly say: “They are still just larvae. Even if they can evolve, war is still too far away.”

The insect king paused slightly. Its golden eyes seemed to be looking at Jian Chen.

the remaining beetles clinging to the glass window also stopped crawling. Time seemed to stand still; it was very quiet.

They were like a different species from the race that was crazily breaking the window yesterday.

Of course, this group of insects had long been judged by the Academy of Sciences to have low intelligence, only knowing how to follow orders, having no thoughts, and being unable to understand Jian Chen’s words.

Jian Chen hooked the insect king’s forelimb, avoiding the sharpness, and gently lifted it for Chen Qiu to see: “You see, compared to weapons, this pair of forelimbs is more suitable for digging burrows, isn’t it?”

That’s right. Adult black-shelled insects would look for the most suitable burrow every winter. Because they have sharp forelimbs, they would dig very deep, enough for them to hide inside and avoid the entire cold winter.

It’s just that the high-level officials seemed to have forgotten their nature, and instead repeatedly researched every way to apply this pair of forelimbs that could cut through steel into weapons.

It was said that there were already successful cases.

And this batch of larvae was the next batch of reserve warriors.

The insect king retracted into Jian Chen’s palm. Its front tentacles gently scraped; this was a posture of bowing.

Unfortunately, it controlled its strength, afraid of scratching the fragile human skin beneath it after all, in their eyes, Jian Chen was still too fragile so much so that the strength was too small, and the owner of the hand didn’t seem to feel it.

Jian Chen put it back into the ecological pool.

At the same time, he searched carefully around the glass window from beginning to end and found that there were no cracks this time.

Chen Qiu was helpless. Was this still that group of fierce insects that went crazy yesterday? They were as well-behaved as toy insects.

A bunch of little snobs.

Chen Qiu thought indignantly.

At night, Jian Chen rushed to the office and picked up the panda cub.

Dundu had never cried so aggrievedly, directly transforming into a “ying-ying” monster, shrinking into Jian Chen’s neck and bosom the whole way.

It refused to go back to the incubator, and its milky voice was a bit hoarse, as if the calling process had lasted for a long time—until sleep arrived, only to wake up again, over and over.

This distressed Jian Chen quite a bit.

When he got home, Jian Chen’s roommate had just come out of the bathroom and was drying the water on his head.

Then he saw Jian Chen and the panda cub in his arms, and he was petrified on the spot.

“Too ridiculous! Do you guys treat marriage like buying vegetables? You just met for a day, only saw each other once, and went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a license?”

“Without even a decent ceremony, don’t you feel like something is missing in your life?”

“This man isn’t worth it! The panda isn’t worth it either!”

…

Li Jin was outspoken. Not only in online chats, but in reality, he was like this as well—whenever he got fired up, sentences would pop out three at a time.

Jian Chen and Dundu looked at each other.

Jian Chen squeezed the little bear’s ear along the fur and said without hesitation: “Worth it.”

Dundu also looked at him and gave a cry.

Seeing this father and son as one heart, Li Jin sat down in frustration and talked with Jian Chen about life for two hours.

Realizing that Jian Chen had no intention of regretting it at all, he went back to his room angrily and slammed the door.

“Don’t live with me anymore. You’re a man with a family now. Go find Yesting Cole!”

Before Jian Chen fell asleep, he seriously thought about his roommate’s last sentence tonight.

Jian Chen suddenly realized that he was now a married person.

He was married. Even though there was no proposal ceremony or wedding, he came with a cub.

This was indeed the most low-maintenance marriage plan in Jian Chen’s mind.

But it felt like a dream, without a sense of reality.

He still went to work busily, bought food, and went home a life of three points and one line, as if nothing was different from before. Although there was no sense of reality, compared to before, life after marriage had an additional Dundu.

Only the existence of this little guy reminded him that he was married and had a cub.

But legally speaking, Yesting was indeed his legal partner.

So, Jian Chen thought… mentioning moving in together wouldn’t be too much, would it?

After all, Yesting also wanted to live with Dundu; he couldn’t monopolize the panda cub. And correspondingly, after moving in together, situations like today could be avoided—two people taking care of a cub would always be easier than one.

Jian Chen tossed and turned, unable to sleep, debating whether to bring it up.

So he opened the light screen and found the chat box with Yesting.

Jian Chen looked at their eye-stingingly red marriage certificate avatars and unconsciously looked away, his face burning.

[Are you there?]

By the time he realized it, it had already been sent.

Jian Chen looked at the screen, thinking he would have to wait for a while. To his surprise, in the next moment, a message reply appeared on the screen.

It could even be called an instant reply.

Mn

Is something wrong?

Jian Chen suddenly felt a bit nervous, and his fingertips felt cool. He deliberated and entered word by word:

Should we move in together?

After this sentence was sent, Jian Chen felt his heart beating very fast. It felt like the last time he was this nervous was during his college entrance examination.

The other party’s message this time had an interval of dozens of seconds, suddenly falling silent.

Jian Chen thought to himself: No way, was it indeed too fast?

But turning it around, the fact that they picked up a cub and got a license on the first day was also very unusual.

A message notification sound suddenly rang.

Jian Chen looked closely, and there were only six short words on the screen:

Would you mind waiting?

Jian Chen stared at this line of words, his eyes wide, and a blush slowly surfaced on his cheeks.

W-was this a rejection?

He licked his dry lower lip, turned over, and buried his head in the pillow. The pillow core felt hot. He could even imagine the man’s expression while replying to this message in his mind.

Cold, dismissive, and very likely tapping his fingertips, frowning slightly in displeasure.

Proposing moving in after only knowing each other for a day or two would definitely make the other party think he was eager and had impure motives.

Tsk, shouldn’t have brought it up.

Jian Chen’s intestines turned green with regret.

He still had to reply. Jian Chen mulled over the wording in his heart, his ears red, as he typed slowly:

Mn, I don’t mind, I just mentioned it casuall.

Before he could send this sentence, a new message popped up on the screen:

The wedding is in three days.

What?

Jian Chen looked at these words as if he didn’t recognize them.

Wed-ding!?

“?!!!!!”

Jian Chen’s entire person entered a frozen state, and he shot up from the bed.

In the darkness, Dundu was jolted into a roll and hurriedly hugged Jian Chen’s calf.

As the shock slowly faded, Jian Chen pulled the little bear off his leg, held it in his arms, and rubbed its head to comfort it.

Jian Chen licked his lips, feeling his face was incredibly hot.

Yesting was quite traditional.

Meeting, getting the license, then the wedding, and finally moving in together.

Um, there was nothing wrong with this order.

Everything a person should have for marriage, they weren’t missing a single thing.

Jian Chen naturally had no objections, so he replied obediently:

Okay.

After a pause, he asked: Is there anything I need to prepare?

He didn’t know if Yesting was also waiting for his message, but this time he replied quite quickly:

No

Just showing up is enough.

Just showing up is enough.

Jian Chen stared at these words, a bit dazed. He felt he must be crazy; these words would be nothing coming from someone else, but coming from Yesting’s mouth, he inexplicably felt a bit hit.

Dundu sat in Jian Chen’s lap, letting the youth hold its paw. Its lower legs swung leisurely, and its round eyes stared at the brilliant light screen in the night. On the other end of the chat box was the cub’s dad—this scene was a picture of warmth and harmony.

The panda cub tilted its head, seemingly unable to understand what this glowing thing was, and reached out its paw to grab it.

Then, Jian Chen watched as Dundu’s paw pad pressed the communication key, and the light screen’s interface transformed instantly.

The system font prompt. The screen is connecting, waiting for an answer.

Jian Chen: !!!!!

Dundu had sent a video invitation to Yesting!
