Chapter 152: Xue’er Has Returned (1/2)

After registering information about a few Demi-Humans, Shen Cheng realized how difficult this mission truly was.

It was like raising a daughter, only for her to suddenly turn into a cat girl, and the next day, someone from a biological genetic research institute came knocking on your door.

Who wouldn’t think they were coming to take their daughter for research?

Fortunately, though the mission had been incredibly challenging for Shen Cheng and the others so far, at least all the Demi-Humans in the families had registered their information.

Currently, most pets are male and neutered, so considering the population density of Lingshi City, the number of Demi-Humans needing registration wasn’t that high.

“Clearly, Liu Su, you are much more persuasive. Next time, I’ll let you handle the negotiations.” Shen Cheng looked at Liu Su with a helpless expression.

“This is also a form of training for you. You will have to use these skills eventually.” Liu Su gazed at the beautiful snowfall over Lingshi City, exhaling a soft breath of mist. Suddenly, as if recalling something, she looked at Shen Cheng and asked, “By the way, didn’t you get your finger caught in the door just now? Are you hurt? Let me take a look.”

“It’s fine.” Shen Cheng revealed his hand, which had been caught earlier.

Liu Su gently held Shen Cheng’s hand in her palm, rubbing his fingers, noticing that not even a mark was left.

“Don’t worry. With his physique, even a knife wound would heal quickly.” Ye Xi, standing nearby, spoke calmly.

“Alright, stop flirting, you two lovebirds. Let’s go and finish the mission so we can relax earlier.” At that moment, Shao Silin drove the car over, smiling as she shouted to Shen Cheng and Liu Su.

Hearing Shao Silin’s teasing, Liu Su quickly let go of Shen Cheng’s hand as if electrocuted and shot him an angry, embarrassed look.

“Haha, alright, let’s go!” Shen Cheng stretched lazily and was just about to get into the car when his phone suddenly vibrated in his pocket.

He paused, took out his phone, and after seeing the message, couldn’t help but smile.

“What’s up?” Liu Su, curious, leaned over to take a look. When she saw the message, a faint smile appeared on her face as well.

It was a message from Yu Lan.

Lanlan: Xue’er has already boarded the car back to Lingshi City and should arrive tonight.

Feeling cheerful, Shen Cheng replied with a simple “Got it,” then smiled at Liu Su, saying, “Let’s buy some ingredients for hot pot on the way back. We’ll have it tonight.”

“Sure.”

Hearing the words “hot pot,” even Ye Xi, who rarely spoke, showed a slight glimmer of interest.

Sitting alone in the car, Shao Silin silently tapped on his keyboard, staring at the snowflakes falling outside the window, and sighed, “Loneliness is like snow…”

After registering the information of a few more Demi-Humans, night had fallen. After buying several large bags of ingredients, Shen Cheng and the others returned to Light Spot Cat Café.

Across from Light Spot Cat Café, construction was underway. Since it was nighttime, the workers had already gone home, leaving behind the half-finished building framework.

“A Demi-Human registration center, huh? I wonder what it’ll look like when it’s finally built…” Shen Cheng, carrying two large bags of groceries, looked at the half-finished building with anticipation.

“Don’t worry, it won’t disappoint you. Let’s go, everyone’s waiting.” Carrying her own two bags, Liu Su smiled at Shen Cheng.

Nodding, Shen Cheng, Liu Su, and Ye Xi walked toward the Cat Café. After taking just a few steps, Shen Cheng suddenly turned around and called out to Shao Silin, who was still sitting alone in the car, “Want to join us for dinner?”

“I’ll pass.” Shao Silin smiled and shook her head before driving off.

In the car, Shao Silin glanced at the still largely blank registration list and murmured to himself, “It’s not too late, I’ll register a few more…”
