Chapter 103 Where are your morals? Where are your manners? Where are your principles?

"Your livelihoods have been prepared for you. Remember, from now on, you can only eat from your own bowl, understand?"

Xu An stood in front of the group of animals and spoke solemnly.

Without rules, nothing can be accomplished. Even if this is a group of animals, rules must be established for them.

"Okay!"

"I understand."

It's that bastard California Kingsnake again. Every time he speaks or answers, he adds his catchphrase "This is me."

Fortunately, there aren't many animals yet. Apart from two dogs and a cat that eat a lot, the others are almost negligible.

After buying these guys, Xu An realized that he had absolutely no experience in raising pets. Apart from buying them some food, he hadn't prepared anything else.

"Woof! Master, can you prepare a bed for me?" the Border Collie asked.

"Master, I want one too." The Samoyed smiled, its eyes crinkling.

The ragdoll stretched lazily, "Meow~ I want a toy, I want to sharpen my claws."

As she spoke, she moved with graceful cat-like steps, her tail held high, and snuggled into Xu An's arms to lie down.

"Meow~ This feels so good~"

"Master, Master, Xiaomei and I need a private space. This house is drafty and inconvenient." Xuanfeng flapped its wings and landed on Xu An's shoulder.

"Hmph, I want one too," Hu Jinniao said arrogantly.

"They all have them, and I want them too. I don't want to be locked in that box again." The California kingsnake crawled onto the sofa and coiled around Xu An's arm.

Xu An's natural physique was very attractive to them, and they felt very comfortable as long as they stayed by his side.

"Okay, okay, I got it. One at a time."

Xu An helped them choose their respective homes online.

"I want this one." Xuanfeng looked at the picture on her phone, then turned to Xiaomei and asked, "Xiaomei, do you think this one is pretty?"

"Hmm, it's very pretty. Is this the one you want, Master?" Xiao Mei whispered in Xu An's ear.

Her voice was gentle, with a hint of girlish shyness.

"Okay, I'll buy this for you." Xu An nodded.

Then I bought the things the doll needed.

Next up is the California king cobra.

"This, this, I want this."

"And this one too, I want this one too."

"I want this one too."

Xu An turned to look at him, a question lingering in her mind: "Aren't snakes supposed to be nearsighted?"

He moved the phone away, only to see the California kingsnake's gaze follow the movement of the phone.

He held his phone in his hand with the screen off.

The California king cobra continued, "This one too, I want this one too."

Seeing this, Xu An immediately understood that this guy couldn't see the pictures on his phone at such close range; he was relying on the heat sensor emitted by the phone.

"Shut up!"

Xu An flicked the snake's head on the forehead.

"Awoo!"

"You wretched two-legged beast, you've gone too far! This is the second time you've hit my head today!"

"If you keep this up, don't blame me for being impolite!" the California king cobra said angrily.

Meow~

The doll stretched out its claws and pressed down on the snake's head.

"Don't be mean to your owner, or I'll beat you up!"

"Ugly freak, do you want a beating? How dare you disrespect your master!" Xuanfeng shouted from Xu An's shoulder, but dared not approach him.

"Woof! How dare you be mean to your owner, or I'll bite you!" The Border Collie jumped around on the ground, baring its teeth.

The Samoyed chimed in, "Little Black, it's wrong to be mean to your owner, or you won't get any food."

"You stinky cat! Get your paws off my head right now! Or don't blame me for being impolite!" the California king cobra shouted angrily, its body twisting and writhing.

Xu An gently patted the doll, and the doll then retracted its paw.

"Hmph." The golden pheasant tilted its head and snorted, "Boring."

Xu An turned to look at the haughty bird perched in its cage. "Hey, haughty bird, do you want a new home?"

His neck stiffened, revealing a hint of human embarrassment.

"You don't want it? If you don't want it, then forget it."

"want!"

"I want!"

The golden pheasant flew over and landed on Xu An's other shoulder.

As soon as he touched Xu An, he felt very comfortable and couldn't help but let out a "humph".

All the animals turned to look at him.

He immediately felt embarrassed and straightened his expression, "Ahem."

"Take a look yourself and see which type you want."

Xu An scrolled through his phone, showing him pictures of the birdcage.

"This one, I want this one!" he exclaimed immediately, eyeing a birdcage.

"OK."

Xu An nodded and clicked to place the order.

"Alright, you've finished buying." Xu An turned to look at him.

He tilted his head arrogantly, then a second later seemed to realize something was wrong, and flapped his wing. "Thank you."

"Hehe." Xu An chuckled.

This pheasant is quite proud of itself.

"Alright, you guys play by yourselves, I have something to do." Xu An shooed them away and lay down on the sofa to play on his phone.

The Border Collie called the Samoyed to play in the yard, while the California Kingsnake, chattering incessantly, went to another sofa on its own.

Xuanfeng took his little beauty back to the birdcage.

The golden pheasant also flew back with some reluctance.

Only the puppet, seeing Xu An lying there, ran to his abdomen and lay down.

"Go play with the Border Collie and the Samoyed," Xu An said, gently stroking her soft fur.

"Meow~ I don't want to, I'm a quiet little princess~"

She gently nuzzled Xu An's palm with her head, looking adorable and obedient.

Since she didn't want to play, Xu An didn't force her. He gently stroked her with one hand while looking at his phone with the other.

He wasn't just playing around; he was looking for estates and land online.

The mission requires him to tame all kinds of beasts, and he has only raised so few so far, and they are all small in size. His villa can still hold them for the time being.

But that certainly won't be enough in the future.

Besides, you can't just turn your newly bought villa into a zoo.

The second half of the mission requires you to establish a kingdom of beasts.

Planning ahead, Xu An not only needed a place large enough to accommodate all the beasts, but also had many other considerations.

For example, their food, drink, and lodging. Most importantly, what are the standards of the Kingdom of Beasts?

Xu An guessed that it was definitely not enough to just find a random place and keep them in captivity.

To continue the mission, the most urgent task is to find a suitable place to raise all the animals.

Only after a suitable location has been determined can we proceed with the training of other animals.

The most common livestock are pigs, cattle, sheep, and horses. These are all large animals. Not to mention that Xu An's large villa is not easy to raise, the property management may not even allow him to raise them.

In short, the prerequisite for completing this task is having a sufficiently large territory.

After searching for a long time, Xu An still couldn't find one that satisfied him.

He certainly wouldn't buy a piece of land himself and start building from scratch.

Moreover, when buying land, one must consider the land's attributes. The government will then ask Xu An what he intends to do with it. The process of handling procedures, construction, and animal training could take up more than a year to complete.

This is not what he wanted.

After looking at it for a long time, Xu An got tired of it.

He turned off his phone and went upstairs to take a shower.

He changed into the bathrobe he had bought and dried that day, then went downstairs and greeted everyone.

"I'm going to sleep now. You guys find somewhere to sleep later. Once the houses we buy for you arrive, you'll have a place to sleep permanently."

After saying that, Xu An returned to his room and lay down on his big bed.

I had just wrapped myself in the blanket when my phone beeped with a message notification.

Upon opening it, I found it was sent by Jiang Xiyan.

[Jiang Xiyan]: Xu An, it wasn't actually like what you saw last night. I just... I just, oh dear! It's all Yingying's fault for giving me that terrible idea.

[Jiang Xiyan]: (Looking wronged.jpg)

[Jiang Xiyan]: Xu An, do you think I'm a bad girl? Actually, I'm not like that. I've never been in a relationship before.

[Jiang Xiyan]: Xu An, I'm sorry~ Please don't hate me~

The girl was acting strangely today; she hadn't sent any messages all day. Xu An thought it was because of what happened last night, and that she didn't know how to face him. He wanted to send her a message to check on her, but then he decided against it.

It's best not to send it, so as not to make her feel embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, this girl still took the initiative to send me a message that night.

[Xu An]: Actually, I drank too much last night and have forgotten what happened.

[Xu An]: What happened last night? Tell me about it.

In the dormitory of Jiangdu University.

Jiang Xiyan nestled in bed, holding her phone in both hands. When she saw the message from Xu An, her heart, which had been hanging in suspense, immediately settled down, and she beamed with joy.

[Jiang Xiyan]: It's nothing, it's nothing. By the way, Xu An, did you take Sister Le Yao back last night?

Xu An's eye twitched.

[Xu An]: Yes, I took her back.

Jiang Xiyan's heart jumped again, and she felt a little uneasy.

[Jiang Xiyan]: Oh, I see.

The scene from that morning inexplicably flashed into Xu An's mind.

A face so close, the warmth of the breath on my skin, the beautiful curves of her fair skin...

"Damn it, what am I thinking?" Xu An cursed under his breath, quickly shaking those thoughts out of his head.

When Jiang Xiyan saw that Xu An had not replied to her message, she suddenly felt very uncomfortable. It felt like something was pressing on her chest, and she felt like she couldn't breathe.

She bit her lower lip, her fingertips tapping across the nine-grid layout of her phone screen.

[Jiang Xiyan]: Xu An, do you like Sister Le Yao?

She didn't know why she asked that question, and after sending the message, she felt even worse.

Xu An was stunned when he saw the message, and Zhang Leyao's heartfelt confession from last night flashed through his mind again.

For a moment, he didn't know how to reply to Jiang Xiyan.

It would be a lie to say I don't like it.

Zhang Leyao is so beautiful, with such a graceful figure, and especially after what she said last night, it turns out this girl has liked me since childhood.

Xu An simply couldn't bring himself to say the words "I don't like it."

The other party retracted a message.

Xu An snapped out of his daze.

Just then, Zhang Leyao also sent a message.

[Zhang Leyao]: Xu An, Xu An, are you asleep? I just got off work, I'm exhausted. The company is having a promotion, so we have to work overtime. But thankfully there's overtime pay, otherwise I definitely wouldn't have done it.

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.

[Xu An]: I'm not asleep yet, I was just about to go to sleep.

[Zhang Leyao]: That's great~ I just got off work and am on my way home.

[Zhang Leyao]: By the way, are you free on Saturday? Thank you for driving me home last night, how about I treat you to a meal? Of course, if you're not free, then maybe next time.

Xu An paused in tapping the nine-square grid.

He had already arranged with Jiang Xiyan to take her out for a nice meal this weekend.

Thinking of this, Xu An remembered that he hadn't returned to Jiang Xiyan yet.

The last message Jiang Xiyan sent has been retracted.

Xu An didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he simply pretended not to have seen it.

[Xu An]: Jiang Xiyan, what do you want to eat? I'll take you to eat on Sunday.

[Jiang Xiyan]: I haven't decided yet, Sunday? Do you have anything planned for Saturday?

Xu An paused, wondering how to respond.

After thinking about it for a while, he gritted his teeth and sent the message anyway.

[Xu An]: Yes, I might have some things to take care of on Saturday. How about I take you out to eat on Sunday? Don't worry, I promised to take you out for a nice meal on the weekend, and I definitely won't break my promise.

[Jiang Xiyan]: Okay, I understand.

[Jiang Xiyan]: Xu An, I'm going to sleep now. You should go to sleep early too, staying up late is bad for your health.

[Xu An]: Okay, good night.

[Jiang Xiyan]: Goodnight, Xu An.

After dealing with Jiang Xiyan, Xu An opened the chat box with Zhang Leyao and replied to her previous message.

[Xu An]: Okay, when on Saturday?

[Zhang Leyao]: Saturday night, is there anything you want to eat?

[Xu An]: You can choose, I'm fine with anything, I'm not picky about food.

[Zhang Leyao]: (Laughs while covering mouth.jpg) Okay then, I'll let you know as soon as I've ordered. You go to sleep now, I won't bother you anymore, goodnight~

[Xu An]: Okay, be careful on your way home tonight.

[Zhang Leyao]: Mmm~

"call!"

Xu An put down his phone and let out a long breath.

He ate with Zhang Leyao on Saturday and with Jiang Xiyan on Sunday... He suddenly felt that his behavior was like that of a scumbag.

Thinking of the message Jiang Xiyan retracted.

"Xu An, do you like Sister Le Yao?"

Do you like it? Or not?

Xu An didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Everyone loves beautiful things. Xu An was just an ordinary person, and he was no exception.

But his education and his sense of morality were silently condemning him.

Two wonderful girls like him, but he's torn between them. Should he give up on one of them?

He couldn't bear to part with it.

Both Zhang Leyao and Jiang Xiyan are very good girls.

Xu An kept in mind the heartfelt confessions the two made last night.

"Choose my ass! Since they both like you, just take them both. A real man never makes choices." Suddenly, a little Xu An with devil horns and a tail appeared in front of him.

"You bastard! You scumbag! Xu An, please don't break those two girls' hearts. They both like you so much, how could you have such dirty thoughts! Where are your morals? Where are your manners? Where are your principles?"

The other is Xu An, who has a halo above his head, symbolizing morality and justice, and he makes no attempt to hide his contempt.

"Tch! Morality? Cultivation? Principles? Can they feed you? Xu An, listen to me, since they all like you, just accept them all and make them your best friends. That way you won't have to be so conflicted." The devilish Xu An spoke arrogantly.

"Pah! Absolutely not! Xu An, this isn't the feudal era anymore. Your behavior will be condemned by the whole society. You certainly don't want to become a scumbag despised by countless people, do you?" The righteous Xu An put his hands on his hips and spoke with righteous indignation.

But why does this rhetorical question have a strange villainous connotation?

Then, the demon Xu An and the righteous Xu An started arguing.

Xu An raised his hand and slapped them both away.

He threw off the covers, got up, stood by the window, and looked into the distance.

"well....
