Chapter 56: This Inn, Will Always Be Kept for You (1/2)

“Milk Tea, why are you not growing here?”

Then came the sound of splashing water, and Milk Tea’s timid yet determined voice was heard: “Sister Yu Lan said it’s just poor development. As long as I consume more nutrition, eat a little more, I will…”

Lin Yuhui took particularly good care of Milk Tea.

Cheese remained at the top, with the largest clothing sizes, unmatched by anyone else.

According to Yu Lan, Milk Tea’s petite physique was indeed due to malnutrition. Eating more to supplement nutrition could help restore her health, but hoping for more development… would be very difficult!

Afraid of hurting Milk Tea’s fragile heart, Shen Cheng chose not to tell her this.

After silently mourning for Milk Tea for a minute, the door of the men’s bath suddenly opened, and Shen Cheng, thinking it was a guest, turned around to see through the steam. But it turned out to be Lin Zhensheng, wrapped in a towel, walking in.

In Shen Cheng’s stunned gaze, Lin Zhensheng took a few steps to the edge of the hot spring, stepped in, submerging half his body as he leaned against the pool’s edge, sighing contentedly.

Seated next to Lin Zhensheng, Shen Cheng pursed his lips and discreetly shifted his body outward.

“Little Cheng…” Lin Zhensheng suddenly spoke, causing Shen Cheng to stiffen: “O-Old man?”

Lin Zhensheng narrowed his eyes slightly and asked casually, “You’ve been living with Huihui for so long, has… nothing happened?”

He had vaguely noticed this during lunch; after all, if something really had happened, Lin Yuhui wouldn’t have blushed just from Shen Cheng giving her a dish.

“…” Shen Cheng’s expression became even stiffer. How should he answer?

Lin Zhensheng’s gaze remained fixed on Shen Cheng, waiting for his reply.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Cheng straightened up, lifted his head, and declared righteously, “Nothing happened!”

“Thud!” Responding to Shen Cheng was a flick on the forehead from Lin Zhensheng. As if that wasn’t enough, he smacked Shen Cheng on the head repeatedly: “Useless! Why are you so useless…”

Would a grandpa do this?!

Silent in his heart, Shen Cheng dared not speak but held his head and ran around the hot spring.

Lin Zhensheng, being old, chased Shen Cheng only a few steps before panting heavily, eventually sitting back in the hot spring with a dark face.

Although still energetic, Shen Cheng didn’t dare to act recklessly in front of Lin Zhensheng, sitting across from him with an awkward smile.

Lin Zhensheng rested briefly and then changed the subject: “Little Cheng, you joined the… Bio-Scientific Institute? Are they paying you a salary?”

“No.” Shen Cheng chuckled dryly: “But they offer quite a few benefits, like expanding the Cat café and providing some tax reduction proof documents.”

The buildings used for expanding both sides of the Light Spot Cat Café were bought under the name of the Bio-Scientific Institute, which reported directly to the state. This effectively meant Light Spot Cat Café had a powerful backing, making petty troublemakers think twice.

However, it could attract the attention of some special organizations…
