Hearing Xie Sen's words, he laughed and looked at Rui Luo. "Rui Luo recommended me to come to this shop to bathe the lion. This is my friend's contracted beast. It really doesn't like bathing. My friend asked me to help him with something. I didn't expect to meet you here."
Xie Sen thought to himself. No wonder Gold Medalist had declared that he wouldn't do business with Rui Luo. He was here just to accompany him.
Seeing the chestnut-haired youth's bright smile, Xie Sen raised his eyebrows. Was he too nervous? Was it really just a coincidence?
"Rohart, what are you talking about?" Rui Luo frowned impatiently. "The lion is about to tear this place apart. Hurry up and let them bathe it."
The chestnut-haired youth, Rohart, seemed to be used to Rui Luo's attitude and didn't mind. He looked at Xie Sen and hurriedly said, "By the way, help me take a look. I don't know if it's because its master isn't here, but it's more resistant to bathing than before."
Xie Sen looked at the big lion that was running and roaring like crazy. He looked at its movement path and walked to the path that it had to pass. Then, he took two steps back to make sure that he wouldn't be hit, but he could reach out and touch it.
After a while, the lion ran past him. He reached out and touched the lion's hind leg in time. The lion continued to run forward, pausing for a moment before continuing.
Xie Sen frowned. Ah Qiang said, "Looks like it really hates bathing."
He had seen all kinds of difficult contracted beasts become docile after being touched by Xie Sen. This was the first time he had seen one that didn't give in like the lion.
After the lion ran past them, it didn't continue running. Instead, it turned to their right and hit the door — they had come in from there not long ago.
"Whoa, Rohart, calm down!" Rohart was shocked. He hurriedly ran to the lion and tried to persuade it. "If you don't want to bathe, then forget it. Don't hit it."
Xie Sen quickly walked to the lion's tail and carefully kept a distance. He reached out and touched the lion's hind leg. He watched the lion's reaction cautiously, ready to retreat at any time.
The speed at which the lion hit the door slowed down and gradually stopped. It seemed to be a little confused. It turned its head to look back and swept Xie Sen's wrist with its tail.
When Xie Sen saw that it had calmed down, he let out a sigh of relief. He touched its hind legs, then stepped forward and pulled its legs back with some force.
Big Lion quickly realized his intention and retreated back to the bathtub. Although Xie Sen's body was smaller than many Giant Lion Beasts, it wasn't small either. As soon as it fell into the water, water splashed everywhere, and Xie Sen's body was mostly wet.
He didn't care much about it. This kind of thing was very common in the bathhouse area. He could just go to the drying room and dry it for a while.
"You're amazing," Rohart praised.
Ah Qiang took out the antiseptic pills and said with a smile, "A Sen is the best nurse in our department."
Xie Sen put his hand on the lion to comfort it. He shook his head and said, "You're exaggerating. I'm just a little more approachable. There's still a lot of professional knowledge to learn."
The lion leaned its head against the shore and looked at Xie Sen with its clear and beautiful eyes. Occasionally, it moved its neck and rubbed against his palm.
Xie Sen held a long soft brush and washed it. Ah Qiang held one in his hand and washed it on the other side.
"Rui Luo, let's go sit for a while. Even if it's so obedient, it'll take at least twenty minutes to wash," Rohart said.
Rui Luo's gaze lingered on Xie Sen for a few seconds, then he nodded and went to sit in the Beast Master's resting area. He glanced at Xie Sen from time to time.
Rohart raised his eyebrows. "What, are you interested in him? Didn't I tell you that he's a couple with MeiIn? They were very close in the forest. "
"Ha, a fake male with no taste," Rui Luo mocked.
Rohart looked at him strangely. "Weren't you very interested in him before? You kept asking me about him in the forest. "
"I just didn't think what you said was credible, so I asked a few more questions," Rui Luo said coldly.
"That's true." Rohart raised a hand to support his chin. "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it either. I'm not exaggerating at all. When Yan Qi tried to form a contract, he failed once and tried again before succeeding. The only difference between the two times was that Xie Sen was next to his contracted beast. Tell me, I suspect that he can form a contract with a Beast Master who hasn't had a contracted beast submit. Isn't that reasonable? "
Rui Luo's lips curled slightly. He said softly, "It is indeed very reasonable."
Rohart lowered his voice. "Young Master Qiao said not to tell anyone. If you hadn't been curious about what happened to me in the forest, I wouldn't have told anyone. Don't tell anyone."
"Yes, I won't tell anyone." Rui Luo stared at Xie Sen and replied casually.
Rohart glanced at him. "I say, you insisted on coming with me today not to accompany me, but to take the opportunity to see the lion, right? Look at how distracted you are. Do you want to go take a look now? "
Rui Luo thought for a moment. "Okay, I'll go take a look. I'll contact you when I'm about to leave."
Rohart nodded. "Okay."
Rui Luo looked deeply at Xie Sen who was bathing the lion. He left the bathing area and went directly to the feeding area.
After passing through the third area, he was stopped. The guard at the door said, "Sorry, the area behind is not open to the public."
Rui Luo looked at him mockingly. "Not open to the public? Do you know who I am? I can't go in and take a look? "
"Young Master Rex." The guard obviously knew who he was. He had been on the hot list for a few days before, but there were orders to not allow unauthorized personnel in. His voice was not weak at all. "I'm sorry, this is the decision of our company's management. Without the boss's permission, no one can enter."
Rui Luo stared at him. "What if I insist on going in?"
The guard frowned slightly. He did not have a good impression of this person who was affecting his work. However, because of his identity, he had to control his temper. "I'm sorry, but if you insist on going in, we'll have to inform our colleagues to ask you to leave."
Rui Luo's expression was ugly. Seeing how stubborn they were, he said coldly, "Let's see how long you can keep the gold medal open."
Watching him leave, the guard complained to his colleague, "Does he think he can do whatever he wants just because his family is powerful? He wants to touch the gold medal? Doesn't he know who our boss is? "
"He's just a spoiled idiot," the colleague said disdainfully.
Xie Sen had been paying attention to Rui Luo's actions while bathing the lion. When he saw him leave, he immediately contacted Sun Mao and told him to pay attention to the fourth and fifth areas.
Not long after, Rui Luo came back. Xie Sen noticed that his expression was ugly. He guessed that Rui Luo had wanted to see the lion but had been stopped.
Twenty minutes later, the lion finished bathing. Xie Sen led it to the left side of the pool. He and Qiang held a large hairdryer to dry its body and mane. Five minutes later, the lion was a clean lion with a flowing mane.
"Cool!" Rohart rubbed the lion's neck and praised it. Then he looked at Xie Sen. "This is the first time I've seen it so obedient in a bath. Thank you so much."
Xie Sen said politely, "You're welcome. This is our job."
Rohart left with the lion. Rui Luo looked at Xie Sen and followed him out.
After bathing the lion, Xie Sen did not receive any work for a while, so he went back to the break room to rest. He asked Sun Mao why Rui Luo had left in the middle of the bath. The answer he received was as he had guessed.
When it was almost noon, he followed the feeder from the fourth and fifth districts. The two of them carried food buckets to the fourth and fifth districts to see the high-level contract beasts.
"They are so smart. I was worried that I might be accidentally injured when I received the job. I didn't expect it to be easier than feeding a D-class contracted beast. I even think they can understand what I'm saying," the feeder said cheerfully as he walked around.
Xie Sen said, "High-level contract beasts have high intelligence. This situation should be very common, right?"
"No." The feeder shook his head. "It's different. They're the smartest I've ever seen. In the past, the high-level contract beasts could understand me when I made gestures. But now, in the fourth and fifth districts, I don't have to do anything. They can understand me when I speak. "
He smiled embarrassedly. "Sometimes when I talk to my colleagues, they look at us. I even think that they're listening to our gossip!"
Xie Sen's lips curled. He thought to himself, That's not an assumption. That's definitely the case.
The feeder opened the gate of the fourth and fifth districts. The two of them went in together. The feeder whispered, "Look, they're of different species. They're roaring together. It's almost like they're chatting."
Xie Sen said, "Can't contract beasts communicate with each other?"
"Not really. Isn't there a saying that two tigers can't live on the same mountain? The stronger the creature, the more territorial it is. Any one of them is the strongest creature in the forest. Staying together so harmoniously makes me feel like I'm watching a children's movie. "
Xie Sen couldn't help but laugh. He had seen children's movies before. Similar to cartoons, the protagonists were many kinds of cute versions of contract beasts. The content was about them going on adventures or living together. Children could use this to get to know the contract beasts.
A tiger roar came. After a while, a huge tiger ran in front of Xie Sen. The feeder was shocked. "What … what's wrong?"
When he was feeding yesterday, these contract beasts were lying on the ground motionless. He was secretly glad. Why were they suddenly so excited today?
Xie Sen held the tiger's raised front paw and smiled. "It's nothing. It's greeting me. We're very familiar with each other in the forest."
The feeder looked at the big guy in front of him and dragged the beast food to the stone trough. "Standing in front of this guy is too stressful. You plant-type beast masters are so powerful. You're so popular with contract beasts."
Xie Sen smiled. "It's just that we're more approachable."
He listened carefully as the tiger told him about the living conditions. "It's not bad here. We all like it. But other than the places to eat, there's no other creature here. It's a bit boring."
Xie Sen was curious. "Then how did you guys live in the past?"
The tiger tilted its head. "Hunting and resting … Eh, that's strange. I didn't feel bored in the past. My mind was always empty when I was resting. Now I'm always thinking about other things. Last night, we finished talking about each beast's experiences. The topic of conversation has already changed to the stories of our ancestors. "
Xie Sen's mouth twitched. "Don't you guys need to rest?"
"We need to rest," the tiger said. The contract beasts lying on the ground called out to them a few times. "They're calling us over."
Xie Sen and the tiger went to the group of contract beasts. The eight contract beasts tacitly formed a circle with their heads facing inward. Xie Sen sat in the middle of them.
Xie Sen thought to himself that it was a good thing that he knew these contract beasts with high intelligence. If they were wild beasts, he would have fainted.
He touched their paws and asked them about the situation one by one. Every one of them replied the same. They all felt bored and said that this had never happened before.
Xie Sen thought about it and felt that it had something to do with the increase in their intelligence. They could understand a lot of things that they couldn't understand before. Their minds were broadened, and most of the memories in their minds were of their lives in the past. What's more, they didn't even have to hunt now. It was normal for them to feel bored.
He said, "Is there anything you guys want to do?"
The tiger said, "I want to listen to people talk. The lives of humans are so rich and colorful."
The black leopard said, "I also want to watch the news. When the feeders talk, they always start with 'Have you seen the news?'. The news must be very interesting."
The spotted leopard said, "I want to see what brother wants to see too."
The two giant elephants said, "Me too."
The giant wolf said, "And the TV. They even discussed the TV plot."
The giant lion lay on the side and wagged its tail. "Me too."
Xie Sen looked around and finally stopped at the left wall not far from their nest. He suggested, "How about we get a projector and put it on the wall for you to watch the news or TV?"
The giant rhinoceros, who had been silent all this time, said calmly, "This will cost a lot of money, right? Yesterday, the feeders said, 'What is the boss thinking? There are so many high-level contract beasts here and they don't sell them. They even send food every day. Isn't this a waste of money? '"
It blinked its big black eyes and looked particularly intelligent. "Although we only eat one meal a day, we eat a lot. Food costs a lot of money every day. There's also labor and other equipment costs. We thought too simply before and thought that we could just pay back double the amount of food after our mental strength recovered. "
It paused. "But your human society is different from the forest. Living here doesn't just cost food. If we add on the projector, it'll cost a lot of money, right?"
Xie Sen looked at it in surprise. He didn't expect a beast to think so much.
The giant tiger said, "That's right. The Flying Rhinoceros is still the most thoughtful."
The giant wolf said, "Then what do we do? Do we think of a way to earn money? "
Xie Sen found it funny. "Do you want to form a contract with someone else?"
The giant rhinoceros said, "The chances of meeting a suitable Beast Master who can make me submit are too low."
The others nodded in agreement. Xie Sen smiled and touched their claws. "Don't think so much. You'll pay back double the amount of food. The extra can be converted to money. It's barely enough for your remaining expenses."
Each of them ate at least 30 to 40 kilograms of meat. Together, they ate about 300 kilograms. The large meat cost 5 Star Coins per kilogram. A day's worth of food cost 1500. The remaining expenses were about 1500.
"A Sen!!!" Just as they were talking, the feeder's voice suddenly sounded. He shouted very loudly. His voice was trembling, as if he had been greatly frightened.
Xie Sen patted the giant tiger's claws. The giant tiger stood up and took a few steps back to make way. There was a gap in the circle of encirclement. Xie Sen walked out of the gap and waved at the feeder not far from the food trough. "What's wrong?"
The feeder saw him and heaved a sigh of relief. He steadied himself with the help of the food trough. "You scared me to death. I thought you were surrounded and eaten by them."
He distributed the food to the trough. When he turned around, he couldn't see Xie Sen. He only saw the eight contracted beasts gathered together with their heads lowered. It was as if they were lowering their heads to eat.
His first thought was that Xie Sen had been eaten by them. He was scared out of his wits.
"Nonsense. Why would we eat A Sen? He's our friend!" The giant tiger roared at the feeder.
"I'm a vegetarian." Two giant elephants said at the same time.
"What nonsense are you talking about? We don't eat people." The other contracted beasts roared at the feeder. They were very dissatisfied with his nonsense.
The feeder was frightened by his own thoughts, and now he was frightened by their orderly roars. His legs turned into noodles, and he almost couldn't stand up straight.
"What … what's wrong?" The feeder was confused. "Are you hungry? The food is ready. Don't be angry with me! "
Xie Sen smiled and shook his head. He walked over and patted his shoulder. "It's okay. It's probably because you're standing here and blocking their place to eat."
"Oh." The feeder quickly took the wooden bucket and walked out. "This is not enough. There's more."
"I'll help you." Xie Sen said.
The two of them carried a total of five buckets of food. After distributing it, both of them were so tired that they were panting.
"Fortunately, except for the giant elephants, they only eat one meal. It's not easy to find food for the giant elephants. We have to go to the forest to find grass." The feeder sighed.
Xie Sen and the feeder watched the contracted beasts eat until they were sure that their appetite was normal.
After leaving the fourth district, Xie Sen directly contacted Long Teng and told him about the installation of the projector. Then he said, "How much do they spend every day? I'll transfer the money to you!"
The arrangement of the contracted beasts was personally ordered by Long Teng's father. Manager Sun and the others definitely wouldn't ask the boss for money, but the expenses were real.
"No need." Long Teng said. "Father doesn't lack money anyway. I'll get someone to install the projector now. I'll go play with them in the afternoon."
Xie Sen looked at the disconnected call and shrugged helplessly. Long Teng's personality was really impetuous.
Just as he was about to turn off the call, his phone rang. He looked at the caller with a smile on his face. As soon as he picked up, he heard MeiIn say, "Are you resting at noon?"
Xie Sen looked at the time. "Yes, I just got off work at noon. What about you?"
"I've settled the matter. I'm having lunch with the other party." MeiIn paused. "I miss you, so I used the bathroom as an excuse to call you."
Xie Sen's ears turned red. He couldn't help but smile. "Didn't you just see each other this morning? You weren't so clingy before. "
"You're mine now." MeiIn whispered. "You weren't before. I don't have a say in it."
Xie Sen blinked. He didn't expect MeiIn to have such thoughts. "We were friends before."
"I don't want to be friends with you. You said that you'll have a lot of friends. I don't want a lot." MeiIn said lightly.
Xie Sen thought that it was the same as before. Now that their relationship was confirmed, there was no need to be conflicted over such things.
He smiled and said, "Aren't you going to have lunch with your partner? Don't take too long. I'm also going to have lunch and take a nap. I'll go straight home after work. "
"Okay." MeiIn didn't hang up. Xie Sen had no choice but to turn off the call.
The gold medal was received very quickly. After Xie Sen finished his lunch and woke up from his nap, he heard that the projector had been installed.
He took advantage of his free time to go to the fourth and fifth districts. As soon as he entered, he heard a lot of noise.
The Giant Tiger Beast and the Long Teng were fighting on the side. The other seven beasts were lying on the ground, watching the news on the projector. From time to time, they would turn their heads and discuss with their companions.
He couldn't help but laugh. It was a strange feeling to watch a group of huge beasts watching TV.
He looked at the man and beast fighting. The Giant Tiger Beast was large and agile. Its strength was even more frightening. Every time it pounced on the Long Teng with its claws, the Long Teng would dodge and miss. He felt the ground shake.
He watched with trepidation. He was afraid that the Long Teng would accidentally get hit.
Fortunately, they didn't fight for long before the Giant Tiger Beast stopped. The Long Teng laughed and rubbed its neck. "Amazing!"
Xie Sen walked over and rubbed the Giant Tiger Beast's forelegs. He looked at the Long Teng. "Don't fight anymore. What if you get hurt?"
The Long Teng smiled brightly. "It's okay. I just want to feel the power of an A-grade beast."
The Giant Tiger Beast said, "It's okay to fight like this. I'm just playing with him. If he can't dodge, I'll stop."
Xie Sen praised, "That's great."
After making sure that the beasts were satisfied, Xie Sen didn't stay for too long. He left after receiving a task.
The afternoon passed quickly. When Xie Sen was about to get off work, he received a more difficult task. He got off work 20 minutes later than usual. When it was time to get off work, he sent a message to MeiIn. He said that he would get off work later so that MeiIn wouldn't worry.
After he finished his work, he went straight to the parking lot. As he walked towards his shuttle, someone suddenly walked out from the side of his shuttle and stopped him.
"Rui Luo?" Xie Sen frowned. "What's the matter?"
Rui Luo stared at him and went straight to the point. "Be my partner!"
Xie Sen looked at him like he was an idiot. He didn't understand what this person was thinking at all. He pouted. "Impossible."
Rui Luo didn't expect to be rejected so directly. He pointed at Xie Sen and said with disdain, "You're just an adopted son. You have no power, no money, and no power. If you weren't a plant-type beast master, I wouldn't even look at you. Don't play hard to get with me. If you regret it, I might change my mind."
Xie Sen rolled his eyes at him. "You better change your mind now! Also, I really don't want to look at you. "
"You!" Rui Luo sneered. "You're doing this for MeiIn's useless bastard son? Think carefully. If I follow him, I'll have nothing. I'm going to inherit the Kes family in the future. "
"You have the nerve to say that he's useless?" Xie Sen looked at him in disbelief. "Don't you feel embarrassed saying that?"
Rui Luo's face darkened. He took a few steps forward and waved his hand at Xie Sen. "Who do you think you are? You don't have the right to mock me."
Xie Sen took two steps back and quickly summoned a watermelon vine to tie him up. "Are you crazy?"
Rui Luo's movements stopped because he was tied up. The only thing he could move freely was his raised right hand. His face darkened and his eyes flashed with a strange light. "You really are a plant-type beast master."
As he spoke, he took out a sharp knife from his backpack and tried to cut the watermelon vine. He didn't manage to cut it in an instant. He looked surprised. He pulled hard and the watermelon vine broke and fell to the ground.
Xie Sen felt his heart ache. His watermelon vine!!!
He called back the watermelon vine. The 10-meter long vine was split into two, about 30-70.
Rui Luo walked towards Xie Sen again and laughed coldly. "You want to do this the hard way?" He reached out to grab Xie Sen's collar. Xie Sen commanded the three-meter long vine to tie up his hand. Rui Luo was prepared this time. The moment he saw the vine, he used his knife to cut it.
He realized that even if the vine was cut, Xie Sen would still use it. He cut it neatly and continued to reach for Xie Sen.
Xie Sen retreated and leaned back. He let the other three-meter long vine tie up his right hand. At the same time, the seven-meter long vine tied up his leg.
When he leaned back, his slender neck was exposed. Rui Luo glanced over and saw the red mark. He said in disdain, "So MeiIn already touched you." His lips curled up. "Doesn't he dislike people getting close to him? Looks like he cares a lot about you. I suddenly have a better idea. "
Xie Sen saw Rui Luo's cold expression and knew that he was up to no good. While Rui Luo was tied up, he kicked Rui Luo Luo's waist. "Go away."
Rui Luo fell back. When he landed, he rolled on the ground and switched his knife to his left hand. With a fierce expression, he cut off the vine on his right hand and went to cut the one on his leg.
Xie Sen saw that something was wrong. He didn't want to waste any more energy on Rui Luo. While Rui Luo's legs were tied up, he ran towards the shuttle. As he ran, he thought that he had to find a way to get rid of Rui Luo. At least he couldn't let him stay in Star City. This person was like a poison.
Rui Luo was a Level A Beast Master. He ran very quickly. When Xie Sen was almost at the shuttle, he caught up with Xie Sen and reached out to grab Xie Sen's shoulder.
Xie Sen was about to exchange for vines and summon them when MeiIn suddenly walked out from the side of the shuttle. He reached out and pulled Xie Sen into his arms. Then, he raised his leg and kicked Rui Luo fiercely.
Rui Luo stopped in time and leaned back to avoid the attack.
MeiIn's expression darkened. He pulled Xie Sen behind him. "Wait for me here." After he finished speaking, he walked towards Rui Luo with a dark expression.
Rui Luo's face was full of anger. He held his knife in his right hand and swung it at MeiIn. "You came just in time. Die!"
