Chapter 124: Shen Cheng’s First Lesson (1/2)
“……”
Hearing Qian Yi’s voice even carry a hint of pleading, Shen Cheng remained silent for a long time.
Treat other Demi-Humans the same way as Little Qi?
Shen Cheng couldn’t help but recall the scene of playing puzzles with Little Qi back then.
At first, he held Little Qi, then let her sit on his lap, treating her like a daughter while helping her piece together the puzzle…
If he replaced Little Qi with other Demi-Humans…
“Hiss—” Just imagining that scene, Shen Cheng furrowed his brow and took a sharp breath.
Apart from Little Qi, there were still twenty-one other Demi-Humans at the recovery center. Did they expect him to let each of them sit on his lap?
That scene was utterly bizarre no matter how he thought about it!
“Investigator Shen… to be honest, though we pride ourselves on being experts in the mental health field, we really don’t have any solutions for these Demi-Humans’ conditions,” Qian Yi sighed. “If you’re willing… well, how about this, Investigator Shen, if you could spare some time each day to give them lessons, would that work?”
“Lessons, huh…” Shen Cheng blinked in response to the suggestion.
Come to think of it, he did have a childhood dream of becoming a teacher.
That was until Shen Die started school. After taking care of Shen Die, his quirky little sister, that dream was shattered…
“Well… I’ll try my best!” Remembering the puppet-like expressions of those Demi-Humans, Shen Cheng, with his kind heart, eventually agreed to Qian Yi’s request.
“Great! Investigator Shen… we’re truly grateful! Here’s the deal, once you’re done handling things at the Bio-Scientific Institute, we’ll let you take Little Qi with you when you leave. How about that? I’ve heard from Dr. Yan that you seem to have a fondness for bringing Demi-Humans home…”
“Huh??” Shen Cheng tilted his head in confusion, a bewildered look on his face.
“Uh… don’t you like that?” Hearing Shen Cheng’s confused tone, Qian Yi was slightly taken aback.
Didn’t that old rascal Yan Jinfang say this would surely delight Investigator Shen?
“Like? Of course, I like it!” Snapping back to reality, Shen Cheng quickly replied, “Since you’ve put it that way, I’ll take Little Qi with me. Don’t worry, I can afford to raise her.”
Being a teacher for a few days and receiving a little girl in return?
What a great deal!
Qian Yi: “……”
Liu Su, overhearing Shen Cheng’s phone conversation from the side: “……”
“Well… are you busy right now? If not, why don’t you come by the Demi-Humans Recovery Center for a visit?” After a moment of speechlessness, Qian Yi breathed a sigh of relief and said.
“Alright, I’ll head over now.” After agreeing, Shen Cheng hung up the phone and turned to Yingyu with a smile.
Yingyu gave Shen Cheng a supportive gesture, saying, “Shen Cheng… go save more people!”
“Then, I’ll head out now.”
“Mm, you go ahead. Lingxue and I won’t be joining you.” Ximing nodded towards Shen Cheng.
“Master… I have something to take care of as well.” Xue’er shyly spoke to Shen Cheng.
Shen Cheng: “……”
You’re just looking for an excuse to go play games, aren’t you?!
“Alright, I’ve got other matters to attend to with Shao Silin, so we won’t be accompanying you.” Liu Su nodded as well.
As Shen Cheng’s figure disappeared from sight, Liu Su let out a light sigh.
