How The Little Medical Cultivator Saves the Furries – CH61

Chapter 61

Yu He and Li Yangbo exchanged a look, then hurried after them.

After all, they were all in the Royal Sanatorium now. There would be plenty of chances later, so there was no need to rush at this very moment.

Besides, Shi Yichun had suddenly disappeared for over a week, and they were both curious about what results he had brought back this time.

As for Shi Yichun, he had already started explaining things to Ye Yumeng.

“It’ll be winter soon, so there aren’t many high-quality plants left to find. If none of this batch works, then I’ll have to go farther out.”

Medical Planet also had a northern and southern hemisphere. Different regions had noticeable temperature differences, and plant distribution varied as well—

Although there were greenhouses, king plants and other high-quality plants were generally very difficult to cultivate inside them. They had to take root in natural soil and follow the local climate if they were to develop more easily.

Just like the fruits and vegetables supplied to the cafeteria: ordinary-quality produce was purchased from nearby growing bases, while the premium ingredients were all airlifted in fresh from across the planet on the same day.

Those cargo aircraft, operated entirely by the smart system, could guarantee delivery within three hours no matter where they were on Medical Planet, maximizing freshness.

Of course, those ultra-high-speed transport aircraft generally weren’t open to passengers. Travelers had to take secondary flights instead.

Shi Yichun hadn’t gone very far this time.

After all, plant kings couldn’t stay in greenhouses long-term. If they could be found locally, then local plants would naturally be better suited to the environment of the Royal Sanatorium.

Ye Yumeng nodded and listened as he began introducing them.

“These are spotted grass. Over there are golden chrysanthemums and iron qi lotuses…”

Shi Yichun introduced them one by one. Besides those varieties, what delighted Ye Yumeng even more was that there were also more than ten red-leaf lotuses and green-jade bamboos.

And when he checked with his aura-reading technique, he found that almost all of them were spirit plants. Only one or two were ordinary high-quality plants!

Noticing where his gaze had fallen, Shi Yichun explained, “These two types are ornamental evergreens in this season, so there are more of them.”

“Only these three are confirmed kings. The rest were chosen by me, so there’s no guarantee.”

Though he said that, because red-leaf lotus and green-jade bamboo were plants he had been cultivating frequently lately—and because he had personally grown king plants from them before—he was still fairly confident.

Unfortunately, the plants he most wanted to find, the calming varieties like mist-snow flowers, were not of sufficient quality.

Still, now that his daughter had already awakened, those calming plants were not urgently needed for the moment.

“Doctor Ye, do any of these meet your requirements?”

Despite being a giant in the field of cultivation and having achieved considerable results in agriculture, Shi Yichun still looked uneasy in front of Ye Yumeng, even in his own area of greatest expertise.

Yu He and Li Yangbo, seeing this, decided to lower their own posture a little further.

But after scanning the plants, Ye Yumeng’s smile turned dazzling.

“A lot of them!”

There were about fifty potted plants in this batch. Besides the five that had been explicitly purchased as king plants, another twenty-two were also spirit plants.

That meant twenty-seven in total—far, far beyond what he had expected.

He had to remember that before this, in the enormous Royal Sanatorium, he had only found seven spirit plants. Of those, he had already dug up five, and the remaining two were spirit trees that couldn’t be moved.

And now, all of a sudden, there were twenty-seven more. It was a bumper harvest!

No, wait, it should be twenty-eight.

Ye Yumeng finally remembered the longan spirit tree he had discovered on the low mountain. He would have to get Ah Mo to send someone to dig that one up too.

The more he looked at the plants, the more satisfied he became.

Shi Yichun truly deserved the title of cultivation master. He had excellent judgment, and every plant he had selected was in good condition.

In such a short time, Ye Yumeng could already feel the spiritual energy saturating the greenhouse, making his entire body feel refreshed and comfortable. He almost wanted to sit down cross-legged and start cultivating right there.

It had been so long since he had felt spiritual energy this rich! If these plants stayed here even longer, wouldn’t the concentration grow denser still?

“Only twenty-seven meet the requirements?”

In contrast to Ye Yumeng’s delight, Shi Yichun looked disappointed.

Even though he had spoken modestly, in his own estimate, at least two-thirds of this batch should have qualified as king plants.

While getting over half wasn’t bad, it still hadn’t reached the standard he had set for himself.

Hearing the two of them talk, Yu He and Li Yangbo glanced at each other again.

Both of them were fairly well-known in the cultivation field too. If not for the need to care for their hospitalized loved ones, they would not have hidden their identities and settled in this little gardening department.

So their expertise was not inferior to Shi Yichun’s.

“Doctor Ye…”

Even though he had been telling himself to stay humble, when it came to the profession he had devoted most of his life to, Yu He still couldn’t help speaking up.

He cut in and said, “I don’t really understand your exact standard, but I don’t think those other twenty-odd plants are inferior to these.”

Some of them even looked obviously healthier, while among the twenty-two Ye Yumeng had picked, a few were shorter and looked less robust.

“I really can’t explain the standard very well.”

After all, this world had no concept of spiritual energy. Other than him, no one else could see it.

Seeing how they were talking past each other entirely, Shi Yichun quickly stepped in and explained in a low voice, “What Little Ye has selected are all king plants that can stimulate the growth of neighboring plants—whether of the same species or different ones.”

Yu He and Li Yangbo both sucked in a sharp breath.

“You mean… these twenty-two are all king plants?” they asked in disbelief.

They had been watching the whole process. This young doctor surnamed Ye hadn’t looked at a single data point. He had simply swept his eyes across them and picked them out!

The two men looked back and forth, wearing expressions that clearly said, You’ve got to be kidding me.

Shi Yichun could only smile bitterly. When Ye Yumeng had first arrived and casually picked off two king plants from him, he had worn the exact same expression.

King plants were not easy to identify. They had no obvious traits, no clear markers—or perhaps they did, but the plant sciences of this world simply hadn’t discovered them yet.

All they knew was that king plants existed among high-quality plants.

Because they were so hard to identify, king plants were often sold as ordinary high-quality plants by mistake. There was even a form of trade in the flower-and-plant markets similar to “gambling on jade.”

About half of the fifty-odd high-quality plants Shi Yichun had brought today had been purchased that way.

Under normal circumstances, king plants could only be identified by observing the growth of the plants around them. That required time, experience, and patient observation.

That was why people needed data—and not the data of a single plant, but of all the plants in the same batch together.

For Ye Yumeng to identify them with a single glance was practically a fantasy.

Of course, Shi Yichun had already accepted that this little Doctor Ye was probably truly gifted beyond reason. After all, he could casually dig up a king plant in the wild.

Before, Shi Yichun had felt frustrated that such extraordinary talent might be wasted on someone outside the cultivation field. But now he no longer thought that.

Little Doctor Ye belonged in medicine, helping more patients like Hanhan recover.

“I trust Little Ye’s judgment.”

Then, his tone shifted slightly. “Still, we can test them.”

He also wanted to know if there were any overlooked gems among the twenty-eight that had not been selected.

“Would you two be interested in taking part?”

Yu He and Li Yangbo looked at each other again. After hesitating briefly, they both nodded.

The whole thing was just too unbelievable. As people who had once been wholly devoted to plant research, how could they not want to get involved in something so interesting?

Besides, they had already heard Shi Yichun mention that the plants he had been searching for seemed helpful for treating his daughter.

Maybe they couldn’t do much else, but in matters of growing and cultivating, they could still help. After all, although the little lamb had awakened, she surely wasn’t fully recovered yet.

And Shi Yichun, looking at the two old companions who had also become dispirited because of their loved ones, saw a faint spark of life reignite in their deadened eyes. He couldn’t help smiling too.

Now that Hanhan had woken up, he felt his own life was full of hope again. He also wanted to see these two friends pull themselves together.

As for Ye Yumeng?

He was naturally overjoyed!

Two cultivation masters on the same level as Uncle Shi, both helping him grow spirit plants.

Could he build a spirit plant garden in the future? Then at night he wouldn’t even need to go back to the dorm. He could just stay right there in the spirit plant garden.

How would that be any different from having a spiritual vein?

A spiritual vein would eventually run dry, but once this spirit plant garden was established, the density of spiritual energy would only grow higher and higher!

At that point, whether he was cultivating, making talismans, or refining pills, he would never have to worry about running out of spiritual power again!

“Then I’ll leave it in your hands,” Ye Yumeng said with a bright smile. After thinking about it, he added, “Uncle Shi, there’s no need to keep looking for more king plants for now. Let’s get these planted first.”

Shi Yichun immediately caught the key point. “Not put in the patients’ rooms?”

That sounded like he meant planting them in the ground.

“Mm, in the ground,” Ye Yumeng said. “I want to set aside a special plot of land for growing king plants. As for what procedures are needed, I’ll have to ask the director.”

Not only Yu He and Li Yangbo, but Shi Yichun too looked surprised.

But when they turned to look at the twenty-seven plants of various species—

If Ye Yumeng truly had not made a mistake, then with this many of them, dedicating a plot of land to growing them really did make more sense.

Planting so many king plants together in one small patch of land…

The three men looked at one another and saw the same excitement in each other’s eyes.

They were all people who loved plants. To be able to own so many king plants was, naturally, something that made them happy from the bottom of their hearts.

Once Ye Yumeng had seen enough, he prepared to go ask the director how to establish a spirit plant garden.

And if that didn’t work, he’d go to Mo Yin.

Mo Yin had said before that his employer—that is, Little Rabbit’s family—was willing to provide him with property on Medical Planet. Logically speaking, obtaining a growing base shouldn’t be beyond them either.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Yu He and Li Yangbo both looked like they wanted to say something.

Shi Yichun understood what they were thinking, so he stopped Ye Yumeng and briefly explained the situation to him.

Ye Yumeng nodded. “Sure. When I have time, I’ll go take a look.”

Thinking that the two of them would become valuable helpers in building his spirit plant garden in the future, Ye Yumeng directly took out two calming sachets.

“These sachets can calm the mind and help with sleep. They’re the same kind Hanhan is wearing around her neck. You can try them on your loved ones.”

Although he hadn’t examined them in person and couldn’t judge the specific illness, the calming sachets themselves had no side effects.

Anyone burdened by illness would naturally have an unsettled spirit. As long as they used a calming sachet, they could sleep better, which would greatly help their recovery.

Just like the little animals in the core inpatient department—anyone who had received Ye Yumeng’s assisted feeding now wore a calming sachet around the neck.

Now, as soon as one walked into the activity center, one could smell the fragrance of mist-snow flowers.

“Alright, thank you.”

Yu He and Li Yangbo both accepted the sachets carefully and tucked them away like treasures.

“Meeeh—”

At that moment, a sheep’s bleat sounded, followed by Shi Yichun’s flustered voice.

“Hanhan, you can’t eat that!”

While shouting, Shi Yichun ran over and scooped the little lamb up.

Beside the path was a spirit plant with a few leaves that had already been chewed off. Even while being carried away by her father, the little sheep’s mouth was still working away, chewing and chewing.

Yu He and Li Yangbo both looked on with indulgent smiles.

“It’s just a few leaves. If she likes them, then let her have them.”

“Exactly. Hanhan’s probably just hungry. Eating a few vegetable leaves isn’t a big deal.”

Shi Yichun looked helpless. How were these two even more indulgent than he was as her father?

As for Ye Yumeng, he looked at the spirit plant the little lamb had chewed and thought… this had to be a coincidence, right?

“Meeeh—”

The little lamb bleated pitifully, and Shi Yichun’s heart softened. “Are you hungry? Daddy will take you to eat.”

Then Shi Yichun carried the little lamb off. Ye Yumeng also took his leave.

He left the greenhouse plants in the care of Yu He and Li Yangbo.

Soon after, he arrived at the core inpatient department.

Ye Yumeng stopped his mobility disc and looked toward the main entrance from a distance. Several cars were parked there, and a crowd had gathered. It looked lively.

“He Jun, what’s going on at the core inpatient department?”

He Jun, who remained at Ye Yumeng’s side at all times, glanced toward the commotion and answered, “It should be people from the Eastern Medical Division.”

“From East Hospital? What are they doing here?” Ye Yumeng asked.

He Jun hesitated for a moment, then explained, “The people you came into contact with during your assessment have all been transferred here.”

Ye Yumeng froze. He hadn’t expected this to have anything to do with him.

But after thinking about it for a moment, he quickly understood. This was probably part of Yaojin Empire’s protection for him.

Still, for those people involved, wasn’t the impact a bit much?

In the crowd, Ye Yumeng also spotted several familiar faces—Director Xiang Hongfu, Lu Feiguang, as well as Zhuo Yuquan and his assistants…

Only after they had all gone into the core inpatient department did Ye Yumeng head over, entering the top-floor ward together with He Jun.

As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, several people in white coats walked past them from the opposite direction.

“Hello, Doctor Ye.”

They greeted him with respectful, deferential attitudes. Only after Ye Yumeng nodded did they continue on.

It wasn’t strange for there to be other doctors in an area as large as the top-floor ward—at least, that was how Ye Yumeng saw it.

After all, the truly strange thing had been before, when the entire top-floor ward seemed to contain only Little Rabbit as a patient.

What Ye Yumeng didn’t notice, however, was that the expression on He Jun’s face behind him had turned distinctly odd.

These people weren’t actual doctors at all. Their real identities were military civilian personnel.

Wandering around the top-floor ward in white coats was simply a way to mislead onlookers. If only Ye Yumeng were seen going in and out of the top-floor ward, it would be far too easy for anyone paying attention to notice something odd.

So Mo Yin had arranged for “doctors” of different ages, appearances, and temperaments to report to the top-floor ward every day.

All of them were absolutely loyal to the imperial family, so there was no need to worry about them leaking anything.

And besides, each one knew different pieces of information. To piece together the full picture, one would need to know exactly which information each person held…

He Jun could only say: Captain Mo truly deserved his reputation as the head of the intelligence division.

Ye Yumeng arrived at Room 005.

Lei Qi had gone to receive Xiang Hongfu and the others, so only Mo Yin remained at the bedside, apparently talking to Little Rabbit.

As soon as Ye Yumeng walked in, Mo Yin stopped.

“Doctor Ye.” He rose to greet him.

Ye Yumeng smiled. “Little Rabbit’s alright, right?”

Mo Yin nodded. “Young Master’s condition is very stable.”

Ye Yumeng walked over to the bedside and reached out to stroke Little Rabbit’s head.

Over the past week, he had controlled a sphere of spiritual energy every day, soaking Little Rabbit’s body in it.

The spiritual energy of the red-leaf lotus truly did have a strong healing effect on burns. A scab on the top of Little Rabbit’s head had already fallen off by itself.

When the carbonized tissue detached, it revealed a patch of fragile pink skin underneath.

Though it was only a small patch the size of a fingernail, progress like this was already immensely encouraging. Lu Yuanqing had even personally called Ye Yumeng again because of it.

This time, at least, he hadn’t deliberately shown his rabbit ears.

His feelings toward Doctor Ye had become a little subtle now. Lu Jiaxue’s previous guesses obviously couldn’t be true, but every time Lu Yuanqing thought about how especially his elder brother treated this doctor, he simply couldn’t stop himself from caring.

It was very strange!

So Lu Yuanqing had chosen to pretend to be dead—to act as if he knew nothing.

In any case, his elder brother was genuinely recovering, and no matter what, that was good news.

Of course, this period was also twice as painful for Lu Nanzhou.

As the scabs healed, they brought a maddening itch. If his body had been able to move, he probably wouldn’t have been able to stop himself from scratching.

And while the Minor Rejuvenation Technique could stop pain, it did nothing for itchiness.

That kind of torment was even harsher on the nerves than plain pain.

Maybe that was also why he still couldn’t see the spiritual points Ye Yumeng kept talking about. All he could sense was a faint current of energy, and he still couldn’t absorb or guide it the way Ye Yumeng did.

That said, Lu Nanzhou could clearly feel life returning to his body.

Most of the life-sustaining devices attached to him had already been removed.

After all, when it came to maintaining life, Ye Yumeng’s talismans were far more effective and came with fewer side effects.

And beyond that, Lu Nanzhou’s control over his body had grown noticeably stronger. When eating, he could now raise his head, rather than becoming exhausted to death from even the tiniest movement like before.

All of these changes were encouraging, and Ye Yumeng could also sense that Little Rabbit’s mood was improving day by day.

Still, he did not let himself relax.

The fundamental reason why Little Rabbit’s injuries still wouldn’t fully recover was the bloodline power inside him. As long as he couldn’t take the initiative and master it, there would always remain the possibility of backlash.

But overall, everything was indeed moving in a better direction.

Ye Yumeng looked toward Mo Yin, remembered seeing Zhuo Yuquan and the others just now, and asked about them curiously.

“That’s right,” Mo Yin nodded. “They’ve all been transferred to the Royal Sanatorium, and their welfare and treatment have improved. Doctor Ye really doesn’t need to feel burdened.”

In truth, after seeking His Majesty’s approval a week ago, he had already begun arranging everything.

Because they were all highly skilled doctors and each had their own assigned patients, the transition had taken some time. A portion of the patients had also been moved over.

Fortunately, everything had gone smoothly.

Aside from Xiang Hongfu, whose rank changed from branch director to deputy director and who now had to take orders from Lei Qi, everyone else could be considered to have been promoted.

After all, transferring from a branch hospital to the main hospital meant a higher level of resources and Treatment, and for Xiang Hongfu, that was true as well.

So the personnel transfer had not met much resistance.

“The little girl who underwent surgery before has also been moved to the Royal Sanatorium,” Mo Yin said.

Ye Yumeng nodded. “I remember her name was Xia Nanxue, right?”

“That’s right. Her recovery is going quite well, but because her injuries were so severe, she’ll probably need a while longer.”

Torn muscles and broken bones needed a hundred days to heal—let alone a little girl who had been hurt that badly. In truth, this matter was East Hospital’s responsibility.

“Mrs. Xia has been wanting to meet you and thank you in person,” Mo Yin added.

At that, Ye Yumeng shook his head.

“There’s no need to thank me. When I have time, I’ll just go visit little Nanxue. She’s really been through a lot.”

Thinking back to that earlier surgery, he couldn’t help praising the doctor again. “That Doctor Zhuo is really incredible. So young, and already with such refined, formidable skill.”

“If there’s a chance later, we could work together again.”

Mo Yin watched Ye Yumeng’s eager expression but did not dare answer directly. Instead, he stole a glance at Little Rabbit.

???

Very obviously, His Majesty did not like this topic.

Perhaps because Doctor Ye had saved his life multiple times and brought him hope of recovery, Doctor Ye had become someone special to him.

And His Majesty’s possessiveness toward Doctor Ye was growing stronger by the day.

Of course, it was also possible that after his body had regressed, his mentality had been affected as well, making his emotions more outwardly visible.

In the past, Mo Yin would never have been able to imagine His Majesty making that sort of expression.

But now… he was already used to it.

So Mo Yin wisely changed the subject.

“Doctor Ye, what did Academician Shi want with you just now? It seems he left the Royal Sanatorium for a while some time ago?”

Shi Yichun’s unusual activity had, in fact, all been within Mo Yin’s knowledge. He knew perfectly well what the cultivation master had been doing recently.

Of course, he also knew in full detail that Ye Yumeng had healed Shi Yichun’s daughter.

This counted as the first patient personally cured by Doctor Ye. The value of the calming sachets was gradually becoming apparent, and more and more people had begun asking about them.

And Doctor Ye’s reputation and position were also quietly changing.

Though it was all moving in a positive direction, Mo Yin still hoped those noisy outside voices wouldn’t interfere with Doctor Ye’s treatment of His Majesty.

Hearing the question, Ye Yumeng finally remembered the important matter.

He asked, “Ah Mo, I want to build a plant garden in the Royal Sanatorium. Do you know what procedures are needed?”

A doctor building a laboratory was normal. A doctor building a plant garden was something else entirely.

“Maybe you could apply under the procedures for an experimental base?” Mo Yin suggested. “If Doctor Ye wants, I can handle it for you.”

“Really?”

“Mm. Doctor Ye only needs to focus on Young Master’s treatment—and the treatment of your other patients. As for the miscellaneous matters, just leave them all to us.”

Ye Yumeng immediately brightened.

Having someone else deal with it would of course be even better! Now that he had more patients, he really didn’t have much spare time.

“What specific requirements would there be? How large of an area do you need?” Mo Yin continued.

Ye Yumeng thought it over. “This plant garden would mainly be for growing king plants. At the moment there are twenty-seven, but there definitely won’t be just that many later.”

“And different plants have different growth requirements, so exactly how much area is needed would probably have to be asked of Uncle Shi.”

“Alright, leave it to me.” Mo Yin nodded.

This was the first time Doctor Ye had ever asked him for something this substantial. No matter what, he was going to make it happen.

As long as it was something Doctor Ye needed, everything else could step aside. Forget a plant garden—even an animal park might not be impossible.

Ye Yumeng suddenly remembered something else. “There’s also a tree I saw on the low mountain before. Can it be dug up and brought over?”

“Do you have the exact coordinates?”

“It’s the place where I met the little mountain sparrow, Du Weiyu. He Jun should know.”

“Then I’ll send people to dig it up immediately.” Mo Yin was already preparing to send He Jun on the task.

Ye Yumeng hurriedly added, “That’s a king plant too, so be careful when moving it.”

“Understood. We’ll send gardeners with them.”

Mo Yin left to make arrangements for the plant garden, but after only a short while he returned again, this time with a young man Ye Yumeng didn’t recognize.

The newcomer looked about the same age as Mo Yin, with smiling eyes and an easy, likable appearance.

“Doctor Ye, this is Lan Fangyu.”

“He’s the one who was originally taking care of Young Master. If Mo Yin and Director Lei are both unavailable and Doctor Ye needs to go out, he can fill in.”

Lan Fangyu was Lu Nanzhou’s adjutant. Over these past two years, he had been the one taking care of him on Medical Planet.

Only after Mo Yin had come over had he finally managed to go on leave. But not long after returning, he had been urgently recalled by Prince Lu Yuanqing.

Lan Fangyu, for his part, hadn’t complained. If not for the trouble at home that had genuinely required him to deal with it, he would never have left Medical Planet in the first place. As soon as Lu Yuanqing ordered him back, he returned without hesitation.

On the way back, he had also asked around a bit about the Royal Sanatorium’s recent developments.

Unfortunately, Mo Yin had kept his mouth tightly shut. Fangyu hadn’t been able to hear even the slightest rumor from outside. If Mo Yin hadn’t told him that His Majesty was safe and improving, he would have assumed something terrible had happened.

And just now, Mo Yin had finally explained the basic situation to him.

His Majesty’s attending physician had been changed. It was now the ridiculously young Doctor Ye standing before him.

What Lan Fangyu found impossible to understand was—

“Other than Doctor Ye, who else is on the team?”

Mo Yin answered seriously, “Director Lei and me. And now there’s one more—you.”

So in effect, the actual medical team consisted only of Doctor Ye and Director Lei?

Lan Fangyu was stunned.

“Director Lei doesn’t really count, does he?” Hadn’t he always been the assistant to the medical authorities?

“Mm. He’s Doctor Ye’s assistant now.”

Lan Fangyu: ???

Seeing his expression of utter incomprehension and deep shock, Mo Yin didn’t explain any further. He just patted him on the shoulder and said, “You’ll understand later.”

After that, he brought him into His Majesty’s room.

Lan Fangyu was still wondering why the room had been changed when Ye Yumeng’s youth hit him like a blow—though of course, he showed none of it on his face.

“Hello, Doctor Ye. Please take care of me in the future.”

He wore a smile with not a flaw to be found, but those sea-blue eyes were discreetly studying Ye Yumeng.

In this era, one that valued seniority so heavily—especially in the medical field—probably no one could see Ye Yumeng at first glance and not question his professionalism.

But Lan Fangyu trusted Mo Yin and the prince, and even more than that, he trusted the emperor he revered most. Since all of them acknowledged this Doctor Ye, then Doctor Ye must truly possess something extraordinary.

What exactly was it?

His heart was overflowing with curiosity.

Still, after Mo Yin left, Lan Fangyu walked over to the bedside and greeted the emperor.

He had been gone for more than a month, so his feeling was the most immediate and obvious. Even without looking at data, he could see that the cub on the bed had improved far more than before.

Not just outwardly, but in spirit.

He had stayed by His Majesty’s side for nearly two years, watching with his own eyes as the light in those golden eyes gradually dimmed, watching as His Majesty was ground down by pain and illness until he was nearly lifeless…

And now, those eyes were bright again. There was hope in them.

Good heavens, how had this Doctor Ye done it?

What had happened during the month he’d been away that could cause such obvious changes in His Majesty?

“Your Majes—Young Master, I’m back!” Lan Fangyu almost slipped up, but corrected himself in time.

Lu Nanzhou gave a slight nod. That was enough to count as a response.

Such a tiny movement, but Lan Fangyu was almost emotional from it.

His Majesty could actually nod now! And his expression looked so relaxed—nothing like someone bearing immense pain.

“Little Rabbit, let’s watch a video today, okay?”

After Lan Fangyu finished greeting Little Rabbit, Ye Yumeng, as he always did, opened the video library.

Although Little Rabbit had become deeply interested in cultivation and had shown tremendous enthusiasm for sensing spiritual energy—which was a very good thing—Ye Yumeng still believed in balancing work and rest.

Especially with a body as frail as Little Rabbit’s, it simply couldn’t endure long stretches of mental exertion.

So Ye Yumeng still made a rule that there had to be at least two hours of entertainment time every day. He would tell Little Rabbit stories, watch movies with him, play music, and occasionally tell jokes—

He had discovered that Little Rabbit, like Xueqiu, had a very high threshold for laughter. Ordinary jokes didn’t really make him laugh.

But he would still do his best to cooperate. Whenever Ye Yumeng finished telling a joke, he would use his mental power to manipulate the voice machine and provide encouragement.

So the voice machine would go “Hahaha, hahaha,” in a flat mechanical tone—but somehow the “laugh effect” was strangely strong.

As for storytelling, Ye Yumeng no longer had to search for stories himself.

Little Rabbit’s older brother, Ruan Qing, had given him a huge story collection containing over a thousand stories. Even if he told one a day, it would take more than three years to finish them all.

As for the video library, Mo Yin had found it for him. It came with AI-organized reviews that were updated daily, which was extremely convenient.

“What should we watch today? Ah, this one! I remember seeing the earlier one before—I didn’t realize a new one had come out.”

Ye Yumeng quickly picked one and started projecting it.

Hearing that Ye Yumeng wanted to play a video, Lan Fangyu had initially been quietly thinking how much His Majesty had really improved—he was even in the mood for videos now.

But the moment he saw what Ye Yumeng had actually put on, his eyes widened in total disbelief.

Tom and Jerry (Feature Film Edition)…

W-wasn’t this a cartoon?

He turned to Ye Yumeng with complete confusion, not even knowing what he could possibly say.

Sure, His Majesty had regressed into a juvenile form, but that didn’t mean they should actually treat him like a three-year-old child, right?

And yet…

Lan Fangyu looked toward the young beast on the bed.

His Majesty did not stop him. He simply watched quietly, and the two long ears on his head even twitched upward in a suspicious way, as though clearly revealing his good mood.

Lan Fangyu felt nothing less than total shock.

He suspected he was hallucinating.

After a while, Lan Fangyu went and sat in the corner, quietly listening to the sounds of the cat and mouse on the movie screen chasing each other around. In the end, he couldn’t hold it back and sent Mo Yin a message.

[Lan Fangyu]: Brother Mo Yin, I think my mental state might not be right…

[Lan Fangyu]: I just saw His Majesty watching cartoons! Should I go register with a doctor and get myself checked?

Mo Yin looked at the message and felt immeasurably relieved.

At last, someone could share the burden with him!

[Mo Yin]: It’s fine. His Majesty not only watches cartoons now, he also sings children’s songs and listens to fairy tales too 🙂

[Lan Fangyu]: ???
