Chapter 67: Milk Tea’s Night Attack (1/2)

“Beautiful, isn’t it?” Shen Cheng said with a hint of pride in his voice.

“Hmm…” Sugar nodded and smiled, “Before I met Master, I had never seen these things.”

All I could see was endless darkness…

“You smile a lot more than before,” Shen Cheng also smiled gently.

“Hmm.” Sugar nodded again without saying anything. The two, one human and one cat, sat in silence for a long time until the sky gradually darkened.

“Do you like it?” Shen Cheng suddenly asked.

Hearing this, Sugar stared directly at Shen Cheng and nodded, “I like it.”

“There are many beautiful things in this world. If you like them, pursue them,” Shen Cheng said, not catching the deeper meaning in Sugar’s gaze. He stood up, dusted off his clothes, picked up Xue’er, and walked toward the tent, casually leaving a comment, “After all, you have missed out on too much…”

“Hmm, I will,” Sugar murmured softly, almost as if talking to herself. Then she stood up calmly, watching Shen Cheng’s back, silently adding in her heart: together with Master…

…

“Grilled fish… nya…”

Cheese was sleeping soundly. Unless something unexpected happened, she wouldn’t wake up until her biological clock went off.

Milk Tea tossed and turned a few times, unable to sleep, her eyes glimmering as if lost in thought.

Gradually, Milk Tea’s gaze became more resolute.

She got up, put on her jacket, quietly unzipped the entrance of the tent. Seeing that Cheese did not react, she sighed in relief, put on her shoes, stepped out of the tent, zipped it up from behind, and slowly walked towards Shen Cheng’s tent.

…

Just as Shen Cheng climbed into his sleeping bag, a fluffy creature struggled out from it, staring at him with ruby-like eyes, clearly annoyed.

“Oh, it’s Xue’er. Sorry about that.” Shen Cheng smiled awkwardly, picked up Xue’er, and rubbed her a bit before placing her beside his head.

He picked up his phone, but there was still no reply from Yu Lan, and it was the same with Liu Su. Shen Cheng sighed helplessly, put the phone down, adjusted his sleeping position, and quickly fell asleep.

“Swish——”

“Rustle…”

Thanks to the genetic traits inherited from the cat and dog demi-humans, Shen Cheng’s hearing and perception were far superior to ordinary people. The sound of the tent zipper being opened and the cool night breeze made Shen Cheng instantly alert.

However, he didn’t open his eyes, instead tensing his muscles.

His sleeping bag was a single-person one, and there was no way Sugar would choose this time to sneak in. Thinking back to the recent confrontation with Branno, Shen Cheng realized that he was being targeted again!

The first assassination attempt had failed, so a second one was almost inevitable.

Was it Branno again? If it was…

Thinking of Branno’s explosive power, though brief, Shen Cheng couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat.

He was wrapped in his sleeping bag, his movement greatly restricted. Besides Xue’er, there was nothing around him that could be used as a weapon. His silver pistol, his last resort, had been stashed in his coat, which was now with Cheese.

Damn it!

Shen Cheng cursed his own negligence, daring to be careless even knowing he was being watched.
