Live Cat Appraisal: Starting with a Beast That's Got a Long Prison Record

Chapter 242 Elvis's Responsibility

At first, Xue Aotian was indeed very excited and enjoying himself.

I!
Xue Aotian!
It's no longer the smallest one here!
I have little brothers now! A whole bunch of them! Awoo~!

Xue Aotian was in high spirits, leading his underlings to patrol, chase, and play in the quarantine zone, feeling that he had reached the pinnacle of his life.

However, the ideal is full, and the reality is very skinny.

Although Xue Aotian was born with an extremely long energy bar, making him a veritable 'perpetual motion machine', he was initially very happy to play with these newly recruited followers.

But it clearly forgot the horror of the 'attack of attrition'!
No matter how much trouble Xue Aotian caused, it couldn't withstand ten underlings taking turns pestering it to play!
One had just pounced on its tail when another grabbed its hind legs.

Just as it nudged one aside with its head, two more rolled under its belly, playfully wrestling.
Xue Aotian felt as if he had instantly returned to his childhood, to those frustrating years when he was 'suppressed' by his older brothers and sisters.

From initial extreme excitement, to forced smiles in the middle, and finally to complete numbness.
Xue Aotian only took one day.

By yesterday evening, it was so exhausted that it collapsed in the corner, its tongue lolling out as it panted heavily, its eyes glazed over.

However, the female snow leopard cub, now refreshed, happily pounced on her again.

It nimbly climbed onto Xue Aotian's big head and began rubbing and licking its ears and head, engaging in a new round of 'intimate harassment'.

Xue Aotian: I can't take it anymore!
It now finally understands how difficult it is to raise a child!

Stay-at-home dad!

Hard work!
Chen Nian's situation wasn't much better.

He had three snow leopard cubs hanging on him at the same time, and he had to check their health and feed them special milk paste one by one. He was busy until night and was exhausted, with a sore back.

Everything didn't end until late at night.

Chen Nian and Xue Aotian exchanged a glance, and then sighed in unison.

Life is tough!

Chen Xue sighed!

And so, the next day Xue Aotian refused to go to the backyard again, no matter what.

That Duck Root is not a place for snow leopards!
No matter how much Chen Nian tried to manipulate him, it was all in vain.

At this moment, Xue Aotian's face was being squeezed between Chen Nian's arms, and his mouth was pouting.

It looks adorably silly~
But its eyes stubbornly glanced to the side, revealing large patches of white, expressing its resistance with its entire body.

It boils down to two words—I'm not going!
Chen Nian was at her wit's end.

"With such little perseverance, how will you ever become the leader? How will you lead the leopard pack to prosperity and strength?"

He ruffled Xue Aotian's already somewhat disheveled hair with a look of exasperation.

Then he shook his head and gave up trying to persuade him.

She got up, quickly washed up, and prepared to go downstairs alone to face the group of 'little devils'.

"If you don't go, I will!"

Behind him, he saw Chen Nianzhen leave the bedroom without hesitation.

Xue Aotian lay on the bed, biting his own tail, speechless with tears streaming down his face.

Stay-at-home dad!

I admire you as a brave warrior!

It tossed and turned on the bed for a long time, struggling with its dilemma, but in the end, it still couldn't put its mind at ease.

What if those clueless underlings bully the caregiver?
It gave itself a perfect excuse.

Correct!
Only I can bully my dad!

Don't be a leopard!

Thinking this, Xue Aotian finally jumped off the bed reluctantly and tiptoed out the door like a thief, intending to just sneak a peek at the situation.

"Aha! Got you!"

As soon as its front paws stepped out of the bedroom door, a smug growl came from the side!

Chen Nian, who had been waiting for a long time, suddenly appeared from behind the door, precisely locked Xue Aotian's neck, and half-dragged, half-carried him out of the bedroom.

Chen Nian laughed heartily: "You've got some conscience after all! You know you're worried about your dad! Come on! We'll share the burden, let's go together!"

Woo!
Woohoo! !
Xue Aotian's eyes widened instantly, filled with horror and disbelief!

I'm being completely honest with you, and you're trying to play tricks on me?! It gripped the ground tightly with its four paws, kicking backward with all its might, trying to break free from Chen Nian's 'clutches' and retreat back to the safety of the bedroom.

It even dug several shallow marks on the ground!
Every movement of his limbs was filled with resistance and struggle.

Unfortunately, Chen Nian ultimately prevailed.

Xue Aotian, with a look of utter despair and indignation at being 'tricked,' was half-dragged and half-carried downstairs by Chen Nian.

Downstairs, Professor Tang Rong had been waiting for a long time, dressed neatly.

Seeing Chen Nian and Xue Aotian appear in such a strange posture, he curiously pushed up his glasses and asked, "Teacher Chen, Aotian, what happened between you two?"

"Oh, I'm getting to know Aotian better~"

Chen Nian hugged Xue Aotian's neck and rubbed her face against its furry side with a smile: "Right, Aotian?"

Xue Aotian turned his head away in utter disgust.

He tried his best to get away from Chen Nian, making a dissatisfied gurgling sound in his throat.

Not familiar with it! No need to post! Thank you!

Don't suffer the old man!

"Hahaha!"

Professor Tang burst into laughter at the sight.

He looked on with envy at the natural intimacy and trust between the man and the leopard.

This kind of seamless interaction can only be seen with Chen Nian.

The main reason Chen Nian went to great lengths to "trick" Xue Aotian into coming down was not because she really expected him to "discipline" her underlings.

Research needs to proceed step by step, and data must be collected one by one.

His main purpose was to conduct a more comprehensive and detailed physical test and data collection for Xue Aotian.

Then, using the perfect physical data of Xue Aotian, this 'super individual,' as the gold standard and reference baseline, we compared it with the data of ten other snow leopard cubs during the same period, so as to more scientifically and intuitively demonstrate the effects of his special massage and soothing methods.

"Professor, shall we begin?"

Chen Nian glanced in the direction of the backyard.

The snow leopard cubs there seemed to sense the presence of the 'king,' and their calls were no longer just noise as before.

Instead, it carried a sense of expectation and calling, and the voice became much softer.

Xue Aotian, however, still didn't even glance at the backyard.

It was as if that place was a den of dragons and tigers!
Instead, it let out a low howl and nudged Chen Nian with its paw, signaling him to hurry up so it could go upstairs for a nap after it was done.

Professor Tang nodded with a smile: "Alright, then I'll trouble you to settle things with the young master."

Soon, the inspection proceeded smoothly and efficiently.

It lay on its side on the soft mat with unusual cooperation, motionless, its eyes vacant, in a nonchalant posture, letting Professor Tang use various instruments to measure and record on it.

You can pick whatever you like!
"Incredibly obedient!"

This composure and cooperation, far exceeding that of ordinary wild animals, caused Professor Tang's gaze to constantly shift between Chen Nian, who skillfully soothed Xue Aotian, and the utterly calm Xue Aotian.

Finally, it all turned into a heartfelt sigh:

"Is this the legendary 'Elvis' charm?!"

"What Elvis! I'm not! Don't talk nonsense!" Chen Nian's lips twitched involuntarily when she heard the title, and she immediately retorted.

Professor Tang chuckled and pointed to a conspicuous spot on the living room wall.

A red banner with gold lettering hung prominently there.

"Hey! It's the officially certified 'Elvis,' it's in black and white, are you still trying to deny it?"

Chen Nian turned her head and looked down, her face darkening: "Who hung this up again?!"

He clearly remembered that after reading it last time, he put it away in the storage room to gather dust!
Xia Qiyue, who was standing nearby with a shovel and a small bucket, ready to take on the role of a cat owner, immediately raised her hand with a grin, her tone slightly smug.

"That's me!"

"Eleven national first-class protected feline kings! How impressive!"

(Meow~)
