Chapter 66: Xue’er (1/2)

The rabbit’s bright red eyes gleamed. It was very obedient and didn’t cause any trouble when Shen Cheng examined it.

“The rabbit’s leg is injured, just like mine,” Cheese said sympathetically when she saw the rabbit’s wound. Shen Cheng nodded and said, “Cheese, there are bandages and alcohol swabs in my bag, go get them.”

“Got it!” As soon as Cheese realized the bandages were for the rabbit, her slightly drooping ears perked up, and she excitedly ran to get the bandages.

Shen Cheng placed the rabbit on his lap, gently stroking its fur. Seeing that the rabbit didn’t resist, but instead squinted in enjoyment, Shen Cheng couldn’t help but smile and said, “Good, good… What a good little thing.”

Lin Yuhui approached with a strange expression and asked, “Senior, is this rabbit male or female?”

“It’s a girl.” Shen Cheng had already discovered this when checking the rabbit’s injury earlier.

Lin Yuhui’s expression became even stranger: “Then… it won’t suddenly turn into a Demi-Human, right?”

Shen Cheng’s hand, which was stroking the rabbit, paused slightly. After a moment of thought, he replied, “Not likely… One of the prerequisites for animals to transform into Demi-Humans is going through a mating season. Although this rabbit looks small, rabbits… well, they are animals that are always in heat…”

Upon hearing this, the rabbit seemed displeased and gently bit Shen Cheng’s hand.

“I’ve got the stuff!” Cheese returned, holding Shen Cheng’s backpack. Shen Cheng took the bag, retrieved the bandages, alcohol, and cotton swabs, disinfected the rabbit’s leg, and wrapped it up. Then he placed the rabbit on the ground, “How do you feel?”

The rabbit hopped twice on the ground. Though still a bit awkward, it seemed that with some rest, it would recover soon.

After hopping around, the rabbit sat down obediently in front of Shen Cheng, its eyes blinking, making Shen Cheng a little confused.

“Isn’t this the classic scene of taming a Pokémon?” Lin Yuhui came closer and said, “At this point, Senior, you just need to throw a Poké Ball, and the rabbit will be yours!”

“…” Shen Cheng’s mouth twitched slightly. He crouched down and extended his hand tentatively, and the rabbit happily scurried up his arm, finally settling down on his shoulder.

Shen Cheng had tamed the rabbit!

Do you want to give it a name?

→ Yes

No

The delicate little rabbit was so light that Shen Cheng didn’t feel any burden on his shoulder. Looking at the white furball on his shoulder, Shen Cheng patted it, enjoying the soft, smooth feel of its fur, then he rubbed his chin and said, “How about… I name you Mantou (Steamed Bun)?”

“!”

The rabbit suddenly lifted its head, looking alert and wary.

“Hey! It may just be a rabbit, but giving a girl such a name is too strange!” Lin Yuhui protested seriously against Shen Cheng’s choice of name.

Shen Cheng blushed: “I wanted to name it CheeseSugar, but I already have Milk Tea and Sugar at home…”

Lin Yuhui gently stroked the rabbit’s head with affection: “This rabbit is pure white, let’s call her Xue’er.”

Shen Cheng, being terrible at naming, had no objections.
