Becoming a Kindergarten Teacher for S-Class Spirit Beasts – CH38

Chapter 38

Seeing the little black snake’s expression go from shock to fury, and realizing that it was about to cause a scene, Bai Nuosi quickly set down the sandwiches. Just as the snake was about to pounce, Bai Nuosi scooped it up, gently patting its back to soothe it. “There, there, baby, don’t cry. Qiuqiu is your little brother, and he’s sick today. Let’s let him drink a bit more milk. It’s okay, I’ll make you some more milk in just a moment.”

Upon hearing that Bai Nuosi would make more milk, the Teng Snake’s fiery anger slowly subsided.

As long as its share of milk was safe, it didn’t care how much that glutton Qiuqiu drank!

Bai Nuosi brushed the snake’s teeth, washed its face, and then used a wet wipe to clean the milk-streaked face and paws of the panda cub, who was still clutching the bottle.

He took out a new bottle and made another batch of milk for the little black snake.

The panda cub’s eyes were glued to the bottle in Bai Nuosi’s hand. When Bai Nuosi, to be fair, added two spoonfuls of honey to the snake’s milk as well, the panda cub’s eyes lit up instantly!

Bai Nuosi: “…”

Bai Nuosi had a feeling that the panda cub was about to pounce and try to steal the milk!

The viewers were all melting from the cuteness of the scene:

[Ahhhh, Qiuqiu is so adorable! My heart can’t handle this! Just for some sweet milk! Aunty will treat you! Deep-sea torpedo x2!]

[Even though I know the cubs can’t drink too much milk at once, I just can’t help wanting to let them drink more! I’m tipping some cash to buy honey for both babies! Hand grenade x5!]

[Looking at how Qiuqiu’s eyes are gleaming, I’m starting to worry that the baby snake won’t get its milk today! Hand grenade x10!]

Even Bai Nuosi was starting to feel a bit helpless. The panda cub was staring directly at the bottle in his hand, but it had already had more than enough milk for the morning.

Bai Nuosi was worried that the panda cub might get a bloated stomach, so he was considering whether to wait a bit before giving it the sandwich he had just prepared.

Meanwhile, the Teng Snake, having learned its lesson from having its milk stolen earlier, sprang into action the moment Bai Nuosi finished making the milk. As soon as he tightened the bottle’s cap, Teng Snake darted over, wrapped its tail around the bottle, and took it away.

The panda cub watched enviously as the baby snake drank its milk, its eyes full of regret and longing.

Viewers in the livestream commented:

[What’s this? Qiuqiu, are you seriously thinking of stealing milk for a second time?]

[If you really do, Xiao Bai is definitely going to get mad! Qiuqiu, you’d better restrain yourself—what if Xiao Bai doesn’t want you anymore?]

[Qiuqiu is still young and only knows that the honey milk is delicious. It doesn’t understand how amazing Xiao Bai is! There are people across the entire galaxy dreaming of recruiting Xiao Bai!]

Seeing that Teng Snake was finally drinking its milk peacefully, Bai Nuosi handed a sandwich to the panda cub. “Qiuqiu, this is the breakfast I made for you—a super delicious sandwich with honey inside.”

Because the panda cub’s sense of taste wasn’t very sensitive, it often rejected food that was too bland. Over time, it could lose interest in eating or even develop an eating disorder, which was bad for its growth.

When preparing food for the panda cub, Bai Nuosi would always add something with a stronger flavor, like pickles, to stimulate its taste buds. This time, he had prepared sandwiches and a small fruit cup with three or four kinds of fruits soaked in yogurt—tangy and sweet, which the panda cub would likely enjoy.

The panda cub looked at the sandwich Bai Nuosi offered, reached out with its paw, and started eating.

Chu Jiangting had not expected much, thinking that if the sandwich was too bland, he would have to force the panda cub to finish it. After all, Bai Nuosi had made it personally, so they had to show some respect, right?

To his surprise, the panda cub took a bite, and its eyes lit up instantly. Unlike the tasteless food it had eaten before, which felt like chewing wax, this sandwich had a crisp texture, a tangy sweetness, and was full of flavor!

The panda cub ate happily, and Bai Nuosi watched with a gentle gaze. “Qiuqiu, is the sandwich teacher made delicious?”

The panda cub swallowed a slice of lemon tucked in the sandwich and licked its tongue. “Yummy!”

Seeing the panda cub eat the lemon slice without flinching, Bai Nuosi felt a bit sad. Why has its sense of taste deteriorated so much?

Eating such strongly flavored foods wasn’t ideal, but they could help stimulate the cub’s taste buds, which might aid in restoring its sense of taste.

Bai Nuosi made a note of this, planning to consult Dr. Sajinna later.

As Bai Nuosi was jotting down his thoughts, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw the panda cub climb onto the table and grab the baby snake’s sandwich with one paw.

Bai Nuosi: “…”

The freshly-fed Teng Snake: “…”

The livestream viewers: “…”

[Is this panda cub seriously not afraid of getting into trouble?]

[Honestly, the baby snake used to get chased around by the cub, but remember when the snake tricked the baby panther? If the panda cub keeps acting up, it might get into serious trouble!]

[Did you all forget that the panda cub’s owner is Chu Jiangting? With him being so reckless, the one in trouble might not be the cub!]

The viewers started placing bets on who would win if the two cubs fought.

Bai Nuosi, looking at the sandwich in the panda cub’s paw, spoke sternly, “Qiuqiu, this sandwich belongs to the baby snake. One for Qiuqiu, one for the baby snake.”

It wasn’t that he didn’t want the panda cub to eat; in fact, Bai Nuosi was thrilled that Qiuqiu was willing to eat. However, eating too much could lead to a stomach ache, and then there would be tears later.

The panda cub, hiding the sandwich behind its back, glanced at Bai Nuosi nervously, “Qiuqiu eats!”

Bai Nuosi continued to give it a stern look, conveying his frustration through his expression. “One for Qiuqiu, one for the baby snake. Qiuqiu already ate, but the baby snake hasn’t.”

Seeing Bai Nuosi’s serious face, the panda cub began to feel intimidated, but it still craved the tangy, sweet sandwich so much!

The panda cub lowered its head and peeked up at Bai Nuosi, “Tummy, tummy hungry, need to eat!”

Bai Nuosi maintained his stern expression, “If your tummy is hungry, you can eat something else, but the sandwich is for the baby snake.”

He repeated once more, “One for Qiuqiu, one for the baby snake.”

The panda cub, feeling wronged, pouted and shouted loudly, “Tummy hungry!”

At that moment, the baby snake, having finished its milk, slammed down the bottle and suddenly flew through the air. Yes, flew! It zipped over, and with a swift motion of its long tail, snatched the sandwich hidden behind the panda cub’s back and swallowed it in one gulp.

Bai Nuosi didn’t see this, but the viewers in the livestream did.

They were stunned:

[Whoa, whoa, whoa! Did the baby snake just fly? Did I see that right? Can snakes fly?]

[Ahhhh, I saw it too! My spirit beast is also a snake, and it definitely can’t fly!]

[Don’t compare your ordinary spirit beasts to S-Class ones! Doesn’t General Huo’s Teng Snake have wings?]

[There’s only one flying snake in the entire galaxy, and considering this one isn’t on the academy’s roster of new students, I have a bold theory…]

[No way! Teng Snake is massive and blocks out the sky when it flies. This little snake is nowhere near that big! Growth isn’t reversible—keep that in mind.]

While the viewers were discussing, Bai Nuosi was momentarily stunned. Wait a second, he just saw the baby serpent swallow the sandwich in one bite, but wasn’t the serpent curled up on the bed drinking milk a moment ago?

The panda cub looked at its now empty paw and let out a pitiful howl, about to throw a tantrum!

Bai Nuosi reacted quickly, scooping the panda cub into his arms and covering its mouth. He whispered, “Shh, Qiuqiu, you’re the best! Don’t cry now.”

The panda cub, with teary eyes and an extremely aggrieved expression, mumbled, “I’m hungry, I want to eat, wahhhh…”

Bai Nuosi’s heart nearly melted at the sight of the crying cub.

What could he do? After all, there’s a saying: the cub that cries gets the treat!

Since he had hurried over and didn’t have many snacks in his storage terminal, Bai Nuosi took out some honey and gave each cub a spoonful.

After eating the honey, the panda cub finally stopped crying and seemed content.

It wiped its tears with its little paw and looked at Bai Nuosi hopefully. “Hungry, want milk!”

Bai Nuosi let the little black serpent curl around his shoulder and then held the panda cub in his arms, preparing to leave the medical room and return to the dormitory to rest. After all, the panda cub’s allergic reaction had subsided, and staying in the medical room was inconvenient. The cubs hadn’t had a bath in a day and night, and their fur was dirty.

As Bai Nuosi carried the panda cub out the door, he softly coaxed, “The milk is sleeping right now; you can’t drink it at the moment.”

The panda cub immediately shouted, “Milk, wake up!”

Bai Nuosi patiently explained, “The milk just fell asleep and hasn’t woken up yet. It’s really tired. Can Qiuqiu let it rest a little while longer?”

The panda cub, with a furrowed brow and a frown, pondered this very seriously for a long time before reluctantly agreeing, “Okay.”

Bai Nuosi smiled brightly, “Qiuqiu is so good, Qiuqiu is the best! The milk definitely likes Qiuqiu!”

Upon hearing this, the panda cub puffed out its chest proudly. Hehe, the milk likes me, and I like the milk—this is true, mutual love!

Perched on Bai Nuosi’s shoulder, the little black snake gazed expressionlessly at the panda cub for a long time before shaking its head and sighing. This generation of young ones… they seem to be getting worse and worse.

It recalled that it had once thought the little black panther was foolish, jumping into any trap set for it. But now, after seeing the panda cub, the serpent suddenly felt that the little black panther wasn’t so bad after all.

At least when it came to intelligence, the black panther was lightyears ahead of the panda cub.

Meanwhile, Chu Jiangting, who had been keeping an eye on what was happening with Bai Nuosi, hadn’t intervened during the panda cub’s tantrum. He had his own situation to deal with.

His grueling morning training had just ended, and he had barely changed out of his sweat-drenched uniform when his terminal notified him of an incoming delivery.

He checked and saw that it was a package from his mother.

His mother had also sent him a message: [Xiao Ting, I bought you a box of mental power boosters, and it’s arrived at your school. Don’t forget to pick it up. This time, I bought double the amount, and make sure your spirit beast drinks some too. For the sake of your mental stability, don’t slack off.]

Chu Jiangting’s mother had always been very concerned about his mental power. Since he was ten, she had been saving up to buy him various mental power boosters.

Resources were scarce on their remote planet, and boosters were in high demand. His mother often had to buy them at high prices from the black market.

The first time Chu Jiangting drank one, he broke out in red rashes all over his body, and his throat became hoarse from a severe allergic reaction.

But his mother believed she had bought counterfeit goods, so she spent even more money to get boosters from other dealers.

He couldn’t remember many things from his childhood, but there was one incident that stuck in his mind. After taking a mental power booster, he had gone to play with his friends and saw them eating sweet fruit ice cream. He really wanted one, but had no money to buy it. One of his friends let him take a bite.

When his mother found out, she flew into a rage.

She cried and scolded him: “Didn’t I tell you that after taking a mental power booster, you can’t eat sweet fruit? That kind of fruit counteracts medicine! You can’t eat anything after taking medicine—isn’t that common knowledge? Are you doing this on purpose? Are you trying to make me angry? I work so hard and spend so much money on these boosters, and this is how you waste my effort? Do you even have a conscience?”

She even questioned whether his allergic reactions were caused by eating other forbidden foods: “Did you eat something else and not tell me? I said it before, no one is allergic to boosters! They’re so expensive that only nobles can afford them. How is it that out of the entire galaxy, you’re the only one who’s allergic?”

Thinking about this made Chu Jiangting feel irritated again.

His previous supply of boosters had been confiscated by his instructors.

The instructors, having noticed the panda cub’s reaction to the boosters, realized he was allergic and banned him from taking them.

Chu Jiangting had been debating whether to secretly continue using them and just not let the panda cub take any. But after hearing Bai Nuosi’s story about the flamingo, he had struggled with his decision and ultimately decided to stop taking the boosters altogether.

He just hadn’t figured out how to explain this to his family yet.
