Chapter 110: The Reunion with Yingyu (2/2)

“Shen Cheng! Shen Cheng! Shen Cheng!” Yingyu threw herself into Shen Cheng’s arms, burying her face into the crook of Shen Cheng’s neck, rubbing her head back and forth while repeatedly calling his name. Her eyes, filled with laughter, shimmered with tears, as if she was crying tears of joy.

Supporting Yingyu’s fish tail with one hand and gently holding her smooth and delicate back with the other, Shen Cheng, with a bitter smile on his face, apologized, “I’m sorry, Yingyu. When I left, I didn’t say goodbye to you properly…”

“It’s fine… As long as I can see Shen Cheng… it’s enough!” Yingyu responded without any sign of blame. Her face remained buried in Shen Cheng’s neck, continuing to nuzzle him.

Holding her like this wasn’t a solution, so Shen Cheng wanted to return her to the fish tank. However, Yingyu clung to him, refusing to let go. With no other option, Shen Cheng walked over to the long bench in the resting room and sat down, placing Yingyu beside him.

Was this silly fish amphibious?

As soon as Yingyu sat down, she placed her little head on Shen Cheng’s shoulder, her soft smile never fading, making Shen Cheng feel as if he had returned to the scene of fishing at the Old Dock.

The atmosphere in the resting room soon quieted down. Seeing that Liu Su hadn’t called to rush him, Shen Cheng began to enjoy the peace with a soft smile. After a while, Shen Cheng asked Yingyu, “Yingyu, can you tell me what happened after I left?”

“Mm-hmm!” Yingyu nodded, then her little face scrunched up as if she was organizing her thoughts. After a long pause, she began, “The day after Shen Cheng left… a very silly-looking person came to the lake…”

(Lu Mingjing: “Achoo!”)

…

Sitting with Yingyu like this for a long while, Shen Cheng’s phone suddenly rang. He could clearly feel Yingyu’s entire body stiffen, as if she disliked the sound of the ringtone.

Smiling, he reached out and gently ruffled her hair, saying, “You should head back now. I need to get to work.”

Upon hearing this, Yingyu straightened up and looked at Shen Cheng, her eyes filled with deep reluctance. “Are you… leaving already?”

“Don’t worry, I’m just going to take care of some things. I’ll be here for the next few days, so feel free to come find me whenever you want, okay?” Shen Cheng teased, playfully pinching Yingyu’s soft cheeks as he smiled.

Yingyu blinked in surprise, but after a moment, the reluctance in her eyes quickly faded, replaced by joy. “The next few days… you’ll be here?”

“Yes, I’ll be here!”

“Good!” Relieved, Yingyu smiled brightly and opened her arms toward Shen Cheng. “Carry me… back!”

Shen Cheng didn’t refuse. He immediately picked Yingyu up by her waist, and Yingyu quickly wrapped her arms around his neck, her cherry-pink fish tail happily swaying back and forth.

After placing Yingyu back in the fish tank, she swam a couple of laps before turning around and waving cheerfully at Shen Cheng.

Shen Cheng, smiling, waved back in response before finally stepping out of the resting room. Taking out his phone, he saw it was Liu Su who had called, just as he had expected.

He called Liu Su back and placed the phone to his ear, listening to the ringing tone.

Soon, the call connected, and Liu Su’s playful voice came through: “What’s wrong? Did I interrupt you?”

“Ahem…” Shen Cheng cleared his throat awkwardly and replied, “Did you finish handling everything over there?”

“Yeah, now just head straight to the Injection Room. I, Shao Silin, and Dr. Yu Lan are all here.”

Hearing the words “Injection Room,” Shen Cheng raised an eyebrow slightly and replied, “Got it, I’m on my way!”

With that, Shen Cheng hung up the phone, turned, and began walking towards the Injection Room according to his memory.

Finally, it was time for the injection, the… Genetic Agent of the Tiger Demi-Human!
