"I’m back!"
Chen Yuan stood at the gate and shouted, startling a flock of birds, suddenly realizing it was late at night, and the old man was probably already asleep, so he quickly shut his mouth.
"Clack."
Iron Head slowly erged from the shadows, the mature and reliable farm security chief Pet Beast cast a look at the farm owner indicating everything was normal.
Chen Yuan nodded, "Iron Head, you’ve worked hard these past few days."
"Clack!"
Iron Head stared straight ahead, remaining expressionless despite Chen Yuan’s praise.
No farm can be without a reliable and capable employee like Iron Head; Chen Yuan decided to credit Iron Head for its contributions.
Walking into the farm, the yard was pitch black, Run Run Duck wasn’t in the fish pond, and the surroundings were silent, causing Chen Yuan to frown, "Where’s Duck?"
"Could it be off causing trouble with Electric Flying Cat?"
"Woof woof!"
Cola sniffed the air, its eyes suddenly brightening, and dashed straight towards the main hall.
Looking around, the half-open door emitted a warm, dim light.
Chen Yuan grabbed Cola, brought a finger to his lips for silence.
Cola, whose intelligence had long since improved, imdiately understood, nodded its head, then used its paw to tightly cover its mouth; its eyes were filled with excitent and anticipation.
Electric Flying Cat and friends are about to get scolded by the owner!
Chen Yuan tiptoed closer to the door, leaned against the wall, poked his head out, and peered through a crack — Run Run Duck was sitting in a chair, wearing a familiar little apron, gently rubbing its slightly bulging belly, wings moving rhythmically, looking enraptured, singing the Duck Song: "Quack quack quack quack~"
Electric Flying Cat lay atop a chair, tail idly swaying to the floor, eyes fixed on the glowing TV beside it.
On the table, there was a plate with fish bones prominently displayed.
What a comfortable little life they’re having.
As soon as I leave the farm, these two little rascals act like they own the place, snacking late and watching TV.
If you didn’t know better, you’d think these two were the farm owners.
Cola glared angrily, face full of irritation.
How dare they not wait until I ca back to eat!
Duck, you’ve changed!
You’re no longer my best buddy!
Chen Yuan restrained the eager dog’s head, continuing to spy on the room.
The Wood Spirit Rat family suddenly appeared.
Chen Yuan frowned, sensing sothing was wrong: "Oh no, the Wood Spirit Rat family got led astray by Duck and Electric Flying Cat."
Everyone knows Duck is a notorious slacker, living by the principle of not doing anything other than eating and sunbathing when possible.
The farm can allow a few slackers, but absolutely not all employees being slackers.
Electric Flying Cat, needless to say, is the famous brainwave king, any mischief caused by the little creatures is certainly due to its ideas.
New employees arriving at the farm must keep a wide berth from these two, spending more ti learning from Iron Head.
But Chen Yuan’s worst fears had materialized.
In Chen Yuan’s peeping, the two big Wood Spirit Rats were clearing the table, bouncing over to the kitchen; the two small ones dragged over a towel, scrubbing the table diligently until it was spotless, devoid of any dirt or grease.
"Phew~"
The two Wood Spirit Rats glanced at one another, their bushy tails brushing against each other, clearly proud of their work.
Wait, what’s going on here?
Who trained the Wood Spirit Rat family to be like this?
Chen Yuan’s face suddenly darkened, the playful Run Run Duck and Electric Flying Cat stood in stark contrast to the hardworking Wood Spirit Rat family.
"Woof...."
Cola looked up, saw the owner’s face turn grim, imdiately feeling an ominous premonition, quickly covering its eyes with a paw.
After a while, seeing the owner didn’t scold or reprimand it, Cola moved its paw, cautiously glancing over — the owner was still fixated on the room inside.
Cola first sighed in relief, then suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of disappointnt well up.
The owner didn’t scold .....
Why didn’t the owner scold !!!
Chen Yuan gently pushed open the door, but the old wooden door still let out a heavy creak, Electric Flying Cat’s ears perked up, lifting its head rapidly, it grabbed the remote, hitting the power button.
The TV screen abruptly went black, and Electric Flying Cat pretended that nothing had happened, closing its eyes, feigning slumber on the chair.
"Quack quack."
Run Run Duck instinctively jumped to the floor, frantically trying to remove the apron from its body, but after much fuss, it still couldn’t succeed, instead, the apron got tangled round and round its neck.
"Quack....."
With the apron constricting its neck, Run Run Duck felt uncomfortable, its steps turned unsteady, its body began to wobble.
Before it knew, Run Run Duck plopped to the ground, its bottom eting the warm floor with an awkward wobble, leaving the apron dangling askew from its neck.
Forget it, Duck, I’m done.
The laid-back Run Run Duck raised its head, gazing forward.
The farm owner was back, as expected.
Run Run Duck saw the farm owner’s serious expression, and failing to remove its apron left it feeling a tad anxious, but Duck’s strong mindset quickly restored its calm.
After all, Duck, I didn’t do anything wrong, there’s no reason for the farm owner to be upset with .
"Woof woof!"
Cola peeked its head out from behind Chen Yuan, barking a couple of tis, winking at Run Run Duck.
Chen Yuan ignored Run Run Duck and slowly walked over to the TV.
Electric Flying Cat cautiously opened one eye, but out of fear of being noticed by Chen Yuan, half-opened, half-closed its eyes.
