Chapter 114: Do You Want to Rub My Tail? (1/2)

After lunch, Liu Su and Shao Silin each had things to attend to, so they temporarily bid farewell to Shen Cheng, leaving Nana to guide him.

Walking through a few corridors, at a corner, Shen Cheng suddenly saw two familiar figures.

“Shen Cheng? Long time no see!” Lingxue, holding an empty lunch tray, was slightly stunned when she saw Shen Cheng, then raised her head proudly and said, “I heard you’ve already been injected with the Tiger Demi-Humans Genetic Agent? As expected of someone under my management as a Specialized Agent!”

“Congratulations, Shen Cheng, you’ve become stronger again.” Ximing also smiled and nodded at Shen Cheng.

Shen Cheng was about to thank them when his gaze was unconsciously drawn to the large, fluffy tail behind Ximing.

He hadn’t paid much attention last time, but now looking at it, Shen Cheng suddenly realized that Ximing’s fox tail looked incredibly soft and fluffy! It made him want to bury his face in it.

“Oh?” Noticing Shen Cheng’s gaze, Ximing smiled and wagged her furry tail in front of him. “Want to rub it, Specialized Agent?”

“Uh… ahem!” Realizing his own faux pas, Shen Cheng awkwardly cleared his throat and changed the subject, “Were you just looking for Xinxin? What is she doing now?”

“Xinxin? After eating, she usually just sits alone in her room, looking gloomy. Who knows what she’s thinking about,” Lingxue shrugged. “Do you want to go see her? After all, you’re the one who took her in. Maybe seeing you will cheer her up a bit.”

“Yes, I came to find her.” Shen Cheng nodded and, after parting with the two, continued walking with Nana. But after taking just a few steps, Shen Cheng suddenly stopped as if he had thought of something, turning to shout back at Lingxue and Ximing, “Wait a minute!”

“What’s up?” Lingxue and Ximing stopped, confused, and looked back at Shen Cheng.

Shen Cheng raised an eyebrow slightly, “Haven’t you been stuck at the Bio-Scientific Institute for a long time? Isn’t it boring?”

“Hah!” Lingxue crossed her arms and scoffed, “How could I possibly feel bor—”

“Yes!” Ximing suddenly nodded, cutting Lingxue off mid-sentence. Smiling faintly, she added, “In private, Lingxue often says things like, ‘The Bio-Scientific Institute is so dull. When can I go out and see the world?'”

“Hey… hey! Ximing, don’t go spilling everything!” Lingxue’s face turned bright red as she began hitting Ximing’s knee with her little pink fists.

But Ximing remained unaffected, looking at Shen Cheng and asking, “Why do you ask?”

“How about coming to my Cat Café for a few days?” Shen Cheng’s eyes gleamed as he began his grand plan to recruit them.

“To your Cat Café?” Ximing tilted her head and looked at Shen Cheng, sensing that he seemed to have some ulterior motive.

“Ah…” Hearing this, the fist-swinging Lingxue was momentarily stunned, then her eyes lit up as she turned to look at Shen Cheng. “Really? Really?”

Ximing: “…”

Why does this feel like some kind of large-scale kidnapping scene?

“I don’t mind, but to leave, we’ll need approval from someone at least at the level of an Associate Dean. After all, our communication liaison needs to bring equipment from the Bio-Scientific Institute so we can handle emergencies at any time.”

“I… I don’t mind either!” Lingxue said excitedly, her face flushed. She seemed unable to maintain her usual demeanor, clearly very eager to get out.

Shen Cheng: “…”

For some reason, knowing that he invited them mainly to get them to work for him made him feel guilty, especially seeing Lingxue acting like a child asking her parents for permission to go to an amusement park.

After some thought, Shen Cheng nodded, “I’ll talk to Yu Lan, and it should be fine!”

“Thanks a bunch!” Lingxue was so happy she nearly jumped up, her pure white tail swaying back and forth. This only deepened Shen Cheng’s sense of guilt…
