“You, you’re lying to me, right?”
Su Ling’s body trembled, and his eyes were already filled with tears.
Ye Moran did not speak, only taking the opportunity to stroke Su Ling’s head.
“Sorry, Little Fellow, but what I said is… the truth!”
“However, you don’t need to worry. Although people like you are rare in this world, they are quite well-known. So, you don’t have to worry about others treating you like an outcast.”
Waaaah! “I’m not, I’m not Human anymore, sob…”
When Su Ling heard this, he only felt more wronged. He let out a loud cry and started wailing.
“I don’t want, I don’t want to become like this, I don’t!”
“Little Fellow, there is no way around it. Be good, and don’t be sad. No matter what you become, I will stay by your side.”
“Sob…”
Su Ling was pulled into her arms, his body shaking as he sobbed.
“Be good. Actually, this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Once your genes have completely finished transforming and you have a transition surgery, your physical fitness will also become stronger!”
“Haven’t you always wanted to become very strong? This is your chance.”
Ye Moran spoke persuasively, her voice gentle as she slowly guided the little fellow to accept everything.
A flash of cunning glinted in her eyes. There were indeed humans like the little fellow in this world, but none of them were born that way. Every single one of them was transformed through later modification!
The photos of demi-humans on her Mobile Phone were all of modified individuals, and without exception, they all shared one identity!
And that was: pets!
Furthermore, these so-called pets would take on some habits of the animals they belonged to. She had chosen cat genes for the little fellow, and their greatest advantages were dependency and a fixed Estrus!
Actually, she had initially wanted to choose the Dog Gene for the little fellow because dogs were loyal enough. However, the Dog Gene being researched by that group was not yet perfect and could not eliminate the habit of eating poop. Therefore, she could only settle for the second-best option and choose cat genes!
She gently stroked the little fellow’s back. After his initial bout of grief, Su Ling’s emotions gradually stabilized. However, he was still very miserable in his heart. He didn’t want these Animal Ears, and he especially didn’t want the tail that hadn’t grown out yet!
He was a Human. He had always been a Human. To suddenly be told he wasn’t Human anymore — he really couldn’t accept it!
“C-can, can I remove these?”
Su Ling looked up, his voice twitching as he pointed to the Animal Ears on top of his head.
“No. These Animal Ears are connected to your brain. Once removed, there is a possibility of damaging your brain. You wouldn’t want to become a dazed little fool, would you?”
“Ugh…”
When Su Ling heard that it was impossible, he felt even worse.
“Little Fellow, don’t be too sad. I will always stay by your side. No matter what difficulties there are, I will face them with you, okay?”
“C-could you go out? I want to be alone for a bit.”
“No!”
“Your emotions are unstable right now. I’m worried you’ll do something bad, so I won’t go out!”
Su Ling didn’t immediately argue back; he only bit his lip.
Looking at the little fellow like that, Ye Moran realized in an instant, ‘The little fellow really is thinking about ending it!’
“Don’t think about those bad things, okay?”
“If you’re gone, not only will I be sad, but I’ll also come to join you!”
“No!”
“I don’t want you to join me, I…”
Su Ling turned his head away, his body slowly pulling out of her embrace.
“Then can I sleep for a while?”
After speaking, Su Ling lifted the quilt and burrowed directly into the bed.
“Of course you can!”
As she spoke, Ye Moran also crawled into the bed and pulled the little fellow into her arms.
“Could you let me go? I don’t want to be held right now.”
Ye Moran’s brow furrowed slightly, but she could see that the little fellow was indeed feeling very miserable. She could only let go, letting him lie on his side with his back to her!
Su Ling closed his eyes. He really wanted to sleep, because whenever something unhappy happened in the past, he would feel better as long as he woke up from a nap!
Hopefully, it would be the same this time.
With that thought, he closed his eyes…
Ye Moran picked up her Mobile Phone and sent a few messages. Based on the little fellow’s sleeping habits, he should only sleep for 3 or 4 hours!
Fortunately, they were currently out, so she didn’t have to be busy cooking. She could just call someone to deliver the food in 3 or 4 hours. For now, she only needed to wait for the little fellow to fall asleep, hold him, and take a nap!
***
When Su Ling woke up, his head felt a little dizzy. He got out of bed, wanting to go to the toilet by himself, but as soon as he moved, his arm was grabbed!
Ye Moran pulled back the quilt, her eyes staring straight at him.
“L-let go of me!”
Su Ling was really a bit afraid of that look and subconsciously wanted to avoid it.
“What do you want to do? Are you thinking about something bad again?”
Su Ling was stunned for a moment, but then he quickly remembered what had happened before he went to sleep. Just as a trace of sadness began to well up in his heart, he caught her staring eyes. That trace of sadness vanished instantly, replaced by a surge of anger!
“Let go! I just want to go to the toilet. I’m not thinking about those things.”
“Really?”
“Really! Hurry up and let go, I can’t hold it in much longer!”
“No, I’m not at ease. I’m going with you!”
“Ah, no!”
“Yes. Let’s go!”
Ye Moran rolled out of bed, grabbed the little fellow’s hand, and forcefully dragged him into the bathroom!
Su Ling was forced to walk in with her. However, looking at the toilet in front of him and being stared at by her, he really didn’t know how to use the bathroom for a moment!
He could only turn his head and say angrily, “I really just need to use the toilet. Can you please go out?”
“No!”
Ye Moran still maintained a stern face.
“Then turn around! I can’t pee if someone is watching me!”
“Fine. Hurry up then. I’ll call someone to prepare the food first.”
Ye Moran looked at the little fellow’s angry eyes and sighed silently in her heart. She could only turn her back to him.
‘The little fellow is still so guarded against me. When will he finally let down his guard and fall completely in love with me?’
Su Ling felt the person behind him. Although she was standing right next to the toilet, he still waited for a long time before he finally managed to pee.
After finishing, he pulled up his pants and walked out of the bathroom without looking back. Upon returning to the room, he crawled straight onto the bed and covered himself with the quilt, looking like he was isolating himself from the world!
Ye Moran smiled helplessly. She could only take out her Mobile Phone to urge the delivery of the meal while walking to her luggage to take out her laptop, preparing to do some work!
Su Ling originally wanted to hide in the quilt and not come out, but soon, his nose caught the aroma of food. His stomach also let out a gurgling sound of hunger. He swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva, hesitated for a moment, and decided to come out!
No matter what, he still had to eat. Even if he was angry or sad, he had to eat. Moreover, the scent lingering in the air was very fragrant — it was a smell he had never encountered before!
He had to taste food with this kind of aroma. This was the greatest respect he, as a foodie, could show to delicious food!
