Allergic To Furry Things But Can Pet Them Mentally – CH99

Chapter 99

The system had originally been wondering what brilliant idea the little crown prince could possibly have, when it suddenly saw him suck on the other half of its host’s face until it was slightly swollen too.

System: [……?]

This unlucky kid really couldn’t turn a negative into a positive, so he just made the positive side negative too, huh??

“Done.” Shen Muhan looked at the two cheeks, now finally symmetrical, and withdrew with satisfaction.

Tang Rong blinked blankly.

It did not hurt from being sucked. He would occasionally do the same thing to the little snow leopard’s cheek anyway. Now that both cheeks were slightly swollen, at least one side no longer felt heavy and unbalanced anymore.

“Thank you, brother-Han.” Tang Rong’s eyes curved with a smile.

System: [……]

The two of them happily went hand in hand to check on the pumpkin seedlings.

This kind of pumpkin would only mature after about four or five months. Harvest time was still far away.

After watering the seedlings a little, they went back inside together, still holding hands.

Not long after, Yun Jian and Tang Zheng’en both noticed that something was “off” about Tang Rong’s little face.

…Why had the other cheek swollen up too??

Only after asking did they learn the whole story.

Yun Jian found it rather laughable and exasperating, but Tang Zheng’en’s eyes turned sharp.

He had already heard about the so-called child betrothal. This little crown prince was truly getting less restrained by the day, taking even greater advantage of his family’s little cub. Absolutely outrageous.

Yun Jian promptly brought over a towel and pressed it to both of his cheeks, then reminded the two little ones, “In another half month, it’ll be Big Brother and Sister-in-law’s wedding. Little Rong is going to be the flower boy, so your face must not have any more problems, alright?”

Tang Rong obediently nodded and said yes.

Shen Muhan also stopped sucking his cheeks after that. He kept careful watch, and no longer nibbled on him either.

By the end of spring, all the flowers in the yard had bloomed in full beauty, their fragrance drifting into the house even through the open windows, drawing in many bees and butterflies.

On the weekend, Tang Rong was admiring the flowers in the yard. Shen Muhan had transformed into the little snow leopard and was playing hide-and-seek with him in the yard. The ground was covered in soft grass, and it felt especially nice underfoot.

After Yun Jian returned, she added some new little features to the yard too, such as a beautiful large swing and a cute fountain pool. They were not only pretty but also very fun.

Suddenly, the little snow leopard stopped in its tracks and looked alertly behind Tang Rong. Its tail also shifted into a guarded posture, as though it had spotted prey.

Tang Rong, not understanding, stopped as well. “What’s wrong?”

“Meow.” The little snow leopard suddenly sprang forward and pounced on a bee that had been trailing behind Tang Rong.

It still remembered what Auntie Yun Jian had said—that Big Brother and Sister-in-law’s wedding was coming soon, and Little Rong could not have any more problems before then.

It had been stung by bees before, and it was afraid Tang Rong might get his face stung and swollen just like it once had. It was going to wipe out every bee that came near Tang Rong and eliminate all danger.

Seeing it leap on a bee, Tang Rong thought it was just hunting for fun, like the cat teaser wand he had bought for it, so he immediately praised it. “Baby, you’re amazing.”

In Tang Rong’s impression, little winged bugs were all hard to catch, but the little snow leopard could hit one in a single strike. It was truly incredible.

“Mii.” The little snow leopard, praised until it grew proud, raised its head high. Its beautiful icy-blue eyes caught another bee approaching, and it immediately lunged again, pouncing on it too.

“Wow!” Tang Rong’s eyes lit up even more.

Amid the little cub’s endless stream of praise, the little snow leopard grew more and more carried away, and the number of bees it pinned under its paws increased too.

Obstacles of this level barely counted as anything in its eyes. They were simply too slow.

But one always slips sooner or later after walking along the river so often.

Suddenly there came an “Aow!” The little snow leopard drew back a paw in pain, instinctively springing backward several steps. Then, remembering Tang Rong was still standing there, it limped quickly back to his side and tugged at his pant leg with its teeth, urging him to run.

A few minutes later, the little snow leopard was whining softly in Tang Rong’s arms, one of its paws swollen from a sting while a doctor treated the wound.

Fortunately, it had only been an ordinary honeybee. The stinger had already been removed. They only needed to rinse the wound with a little alkaline solution to neutralize the acidity of the venom. It was not a big problem.

It just probably would not stop swelling very quickly.

In just that short while, the paw that had been stung had already swollen to a full size larger than the normal ones. It looked pitiful and ridiculous at the same time.

Tang Rong was heartbroken with worry and held an ice pack to it.

Just after their own son’s cheeks had finally gone down, the little snow leopard’s paw had swollen up now. Yun Jian, both amused and helpless, snapped a photo and sent it to Han Zhi, sharing the whole incident with her.

Han Zhi was delighted and secretly sent back an old photo of the little snow leopard’s face from when it had once been stung and swollen—she had kept all those pictures carefully saved.

Because its paw was swollen, walking hurt and felt awful, and it was inconvenient for it to switch back into human form. So for the next few days, Tang Rong carried the little snow leopard everywhere and never let its paw touch the ground, truly taking care of it as though it were a little baby.

After all, the little snow leopard had been stung protecting him, so he ought to take care of it in return.

He even printed out the photo of the little snow leopard’s swollen paw and wrote on the back: “Baby got stung by a bee because it was protecting me. In the future, I’ll protect Baby well too and won’t let it get hurt again.”

Curled up in his arms, the little snow leopard’s despair over the black-history photo being printed out gradually melted away, leaving only endless joy behind.

…

Many years later, after growing up, a certain leopard deliberately took his lop-eared rabbit little brother along to poke a beehive, all just to make the one he loved feel sorry for him and pay him attention. The two of them ended up stung in several swollen patches—his snow leopard tail swelling into a “candied hawthorn skewer,” while the lop-eared rabbit’s ears swelled upright. Limping all the way back to the dorm with their hard-won honey as spoils, they put on quite a show of acting spoiled.

Of course, that is a story for much later.

A few days later, the little snow leopard’s paw finally returned to normal, and it could once again bounce and jump about without limping.

Yun Jian specially reminded them again, “At the wedding, the little snow leopard still has to carry the little flower basket to deliver flowers to the bride, so its paw absolutely cannot have any more problems, alright?”

Tang Yao and Lin Fei’s wedding arrived as scheduled.

The wedding venue was on an island on the main planet, surrounded on all sides by the sea. After the wedding ended, they could even stay on the island and have fun for a few days.

Three days before the wedding, Tang Rong followed his family to the island in advance and helped the staff prepare the wedding venue.

Tang Rong was small and young, so he could not really help with much. Under butler Uncle’s care, he and the little snow leopard simply took a stroll on the nearby beach.

There were many sand crabs and hermit crabs on the beach. The little snow leopard curiously reached out a paw to tap at a few of them, only for Tang Rong to quickly scoop it up in his arms.

“Be careful, or your paw will get pinched again.”

The wedding was close. The paw absolutely could not suffer another accident.

“Mii.” The little snow leopard obediently found a comfortable position in his arms.

In truth, little crabs like these were not like bees. They were not very aggressive. Their pincers might not even be able to break its skin, and they had no venom. Even if they did manage to scratch it, it would only be a tiny wound and nothing serious.

But it knew what mattered more. It had to be in its best condition so that it and Little Rong could present the flowers and rings to the bride and groom together.

That night, Tang Rong and the little snow leopard tried on their flower-child outfits together. Tang Qiu had made them by hand, and they fit perfectly.

Tang Rong’s was a little formal suit, with a small bow tie at the chest.

As for the little snow leopard’s… it was a little skirt in the same color theme as Tang Rong’s, sized for a fluffy little animal, with a tiny bow at the tail that matched the bow tie exactly.
