Allergic To Furry Things But Can Pet Them Mentally – CH89

Chapter 89

Staring at the little flower bobbing on top of the little snow leopard’s head, Tang Rong’s heart practically melted from how adorable it was. He quickly scooped it up after it jumped onto the bed, pulled it into his arms, touched the little flower on its head, and smoothed the fur on its back.

“Meow.”

Its little tail lightly curled around his wrist.

“I’m already much better, so don’t worry.” Tang Rong’s voice was a little hoarse, which really made it impossible not to worry, though his temperature had indeed gone down some. With a few more days of rest, he should recover completely.

He had lived for several years on the Garbage Planet, never eating enough or wearing enough, so his constitution was rather weak. Even after coming back and being carefully nourished for months, it still could not fully make up for the depletion from those years.

Although the little snow leopard was anxious and worried, there was not much it could do.

Tang Rong cupped the little snow leopard’s masked face in both hands, gently rubbing its two small ears with his thumbs and forefingers as he asked worriedly, “Are you really not feeling unwell anywhere?”

Compared to himself, the little snow leopard had been moving through the snow and rolling around in it the whole time, its entire body wrapped in snow. Even though he knew it was a snow leopard and not afraid of the cold, he still could not stop the worry in his heart.

“Meowu.”

A speech bubble appeared above the little snow leopard’s head.

“I’m fine. I’m not afraid of the cold. I’d be okay even sleeping in the snow.”

It had thick fur that could resist the cold.

Too bad that once the fur of a spirit form was brushed off, it would quickly turn into sparkling spiritual energy. Otherwise, it could have used its own fur to make Xiao Rong a warm leopard-fur coat.

Or if it could turn into a big snow leopard, it could directly circle Xiao Rong in its arms and become his leopard-fur coat that way.

It needed to study hard and train hard so it could become a big snow leopard as soon as possible.

That same evening, after Tang Rong had eaten dinner and taken his medicine, then once again succumbed to drowsiness and fallen asleep, the little snow leopard suddenly jumped in front of Tang Zheng’en, who was just about to switch shifts with Butler. A speech bubble floated above its head:

“Teacher Tang, let’s go train.”

Tang Zheng’en: “?”

The New Year holiday was not even over yet. What was this unlucky kid doing now?

…

In the end, Tang Zheng’en still went off to train with the little snow leopard, which seemed suddenly pumped full of fighting spirit. After sitting guard by Xiao Rong’s bedside for so long, his body had become a little stiff as well.

After training, the little lion picked up the exhausted little snow leopard and carried it back into the room. Once the fur dampened by the snow had been dried, it had Butler put masks on both of them, then brazenly used its seniority to bully the younger one and chose first—taking the flower hairpin the little snow leopard had worn before.

With the little flower standing straight up on its head, the little lion curled up happily beside the sleeping little cub on the bed.

The little snow leopard, meanwhile, was a little tired and fell asleep quickly.

Looking at the sleeping faces of the two little ones, the little lion opened its light-brain and sent a message to the little snow leopard’s parents:

[Holiday overtime sparring fee: triple pay.]

…

Two days later, Tang Rong was finally well again. He could jump and bounce around, full of energy once more, and could even polish off an entire little drumstick in one go.

It had not snowed much over the past few days, so the snow leopards in the yard were all still in good condition—neither buried under new snow nor melted away.

Since they lived in Eden and had no relatives to visit, Tang Rong went to his little uncle’s place. Under his supervision, he continued carving the tag he was preparing to give the little snow leopard.

Together with the progress he had made before the New Year, the tag was successfully completed a few days later.

While eating handmade sweets delivered by Xiao Chun-brother, Tang Rong impatiently placed a video call to Shen Muhan.

After the New Year, Shen Muhan was still very busy. A few days ago, because Tang Rong had been sick, he had kept running back and forth. After Tang Rong recovered, his family stopped him from continuing to wear himself out traveling between both sides. Since he also wanted to spend time with his family, the two of them could only keep in touch by phone every day.

The video call was picked up not long after it was sent.

Sitting beside Shen Muhan was a little boy and a little girl, also members of the royal family. They were Shen Muhan’s cousins and slightly older than him.

The three of them were in the middle of playing some kind of chess-like board game.

“Your turn,” said the little girl.

Both of them turned their gazes to Shen Muhan, who was answering the incoming video call.

Shen Muhan hurriedly said “Wait a moment” to Tang Rong on the other end, picked up one of his game pieces, and within a few minutes finished the match as the winner.

“Not playing anymore for now.” Shen Muhan stood up directly.

The two others were already used to the little crown prince cousin disappearing for a while every time he received a call from his good friend, so they lowered their heads to tidy up the board and started a new two-person match.

It would probably take until their whole next round ended before the little crown prince cousin came back after finishing his call.

Shen Muhan went straight into another empty room and turned his gaze to Tang Rong on the other end of the call.

Tang Rong finally spoke: “Is that chess game fun?”

He had not even figured out the rules before Xiao Han-brother had already won. It looked quite interesting.

Shen Muhan replied, “It’s fun. When I go back, I’ll teach you.”

“Okay.” Tang Rong nodded, then eagerly lifted up the tag he had already carved with the healing rune and showed it to him.

The tag was small, shaped like a little snow leopard’s head, cute enough to fit completely inside Tang Rong’s little palm.

The healing rune carved on it was especially beautiful too, much more advanced than the bracelet from last time.

Shen Muhan’s eyes instantly lit up. He moved his face even closer to the screen to look carefully.

“Is it finished already?”

He had been looking forward to this from before the New Year all the way until after the New Year. Xiao Rong had stayed so mysterious the whole time and refused to show it to him beforehand. Although he had been extremely excited, he had never once rushed him.

“Mm-hmm.” Tang Rong flipped the tag over and showed him the other side, the side prepared for engraving a name. At the moment, that side was still bare, without any design on it yet.

“Do you want to add a name on this side? I saw that those spirit-form tags usually have either a real name or a nickname on them. Once the name is carved on, it’ll be completely finished,” Tang Rong said.

When Shen Muhan heard this, he found himself momentarily unable to decide. Several names flashed quickly through his mind, but none of them felt perfect.

“I’ll go search and see what people usually put on them,” said Shen Muhan.

“Okay.”

Shen Muhan immediately split his light-brain screen and started searching related terms.

Not long after, many results popped up—

“Little Xu’s Doudou”
“Luo family’s Diandian”
“Jiang family’s Little Meow”
“Diu Diu’s Snowball”

And under the name, there would usually be a line with the little animal owner’s contact information.
