Chapter 113: Chapter 113 Yuanyuan
Bai is back!
Seeing the familiar white rat again, Wang Chen’s heart suddenly blossomed like flowers in spring.
The joy he felt could practically fill a 500-word essay on a primary school student’s spring outing!
The kind that would score full marks and be read aloud by the teacher.
Back when Wang Chen first crossed over to this world, it was Bai who had accompanied him through tough times.
Then, his Storage Bag barely had a few Spirit Stones, and he had to face the dangerous world with little strength.
He was as apprehensive as if he were treading on thin ice.
It was Bai who brought him a lot of warmth and happiness.
Moreover, Bai had even saved his life!
After Bai left, Wang Chen had been down for several days.
He thought he would never see this intelligent Spirit Mouse again in his lifetime.
But the surprise came so unexpectedly!
Wang Chen stepped forward, reaching out to cradle the white rat in his arms.

Petting and petting! The familiar feel almost brought tears to the tough man’s eyes.
“Squeak, squeak.”
Bai squinted comfortably in his embrace.
It flicked its tail, then gently rubbed Wang Chen’s palm with its damp and tender nose.
Sniffing his scent.
As Wang Chen stroked the silky fur of the white rat, he chattered away to it.
“Where have you been?”
“How have you been recently?”
“You’ve lost weight, haven’t you?”
“Right, where’s your husband?”
“Squeak, squeak!”
What!? It was then that Wang Chen noticed there was a Brocade Fur Rat perched on the desk!
Actually, it had been there all along.
He had just unconsciously overlooked it!
“Heh heh.”
Wang Chen chuckled awkwardly, “So your husband is here too.”
“Squeak, squeak.”
The white rat looked up and squeaked at the Brocade Fur Rat.
The latter immediately leaped off the desk, bounding through air to the ventilation duct that led to the secret chamber.
In the blink of an eye, it disappeared from sight.
Wang Chen realized – So that’s how they sneaked into his secret chamber.
In just a short moment, the Brocade Fur Rat was back.
It returned, mouth gripping a small dumpling, with two pudgy little ones clinging to its back before dynamically jumping back onto the desk.
By then, the white rat had wriggled free from Wang Chen’s arms and hopped onto the desk to join its partner.
The Brocade Fur Rat dropped the dumpling from its mouth and gave a shake, tossing the little pudgy ones from its back.
The three rosy little ones immediately began to “yip yip yip,” crying out.
They clambered over the white rat in a scramble.
The white rat circled them with its tail and tenderly licked them with its tongue.
Indoor lighting shone upon it, reflecting a soft, warm glow!
Touched by such a warm scene, Wang Chen was moved.
It turned out that Bai and her partner had gone to have babies, and they had triplets!
After snuggling with the little ones for a while, the white rat separated the three little dumplings.
Then it looked at Wang Chen and squeaked a few times.
Wang Chen caught on, even more astonished, “You mean to let me choose one?”
The white rat nodded.
Wang Chen scratched his head.
He really hadn’t expected Bai and her partner to come back this time to give him a child!
He thought about politely declining.
But noticing the hopeful gleam in Bai’s eyes, Wang Chen couldn’t bring himself to say the words of rejection.
Besides, keeping a little mouse wouldn’t cost much in terms of food, so he thought better and accepted.
But which one to choose?
Wang Chen looked left and right, overcome by indecision.
The similarly pudgy triplets each had their distinct appearances.
The one on the left was clearly a mini version of the Brocade Fur Rat.
Father and son looked almost identical, with no discernible difference.
The one on the right looked like Bai, and both mother and daughter were very cute.
Wang Chen was quite fond of them.
And the one in the middle?
Wang Chen looked left and right, and the more he looked, the more it resembled a hamster!
Now the question was, how did a white rat and a Brocade Fur Rat give birth to a little hamster?
Was it that Bai had an affair, or was it the Brocade Fur Rat that had strayed? Was it an aberration of murine nature, or was it a moral…
“Squeak, squeak!”
The call from the white rat brought Wang Chen’s wandering thoughts snapping back.
After some thought, he extended his right hand with the palm up, placing it in front of the three little ones.
If he couldn’t decide, then he would let fate make the choice!
“Yip yip.”
The three little ones acted differently upon scenting Wang Chen.
The left mouse shrank back timidly, not daring to approach the palm on the table.
The right mouse twitched its tiny nose and then set off on its stubby legs.
It didn’t seem to reject Wang Chen.
It just moved a bit slowly.
Having just crawled a few steps, the one in the middle that resembled a hamster had already jumped onto Wang Chen’s palm!
This little fellow was obviously more alert than its siblings.
And quite beautiful.
Its bright, shiny eyes were full of spirit. Its coat of White Fur was flawless, and a gold strip as wide as a finger extended from the forehead to the tail, naturally diffusing to both sides with an extremely beautiful color.
The tips of the little one’s ears were of the same golden color.
A top-notch Golden Fox, indeed!
It reminded Wang Chen of the four hamsters he had raised in his past life.
Tuan Tuan, Yuanyuan, Quan Quan, and Chacha!
Perhaps this was fate.
Wang Chen reached out and stroked the little fellow’s head.
The latter replied with a “yīng yīng,” not showing the slightest sign of shyness.
He said to the big white rat, “I’ll choose this one.”
Wang Chen felt he had made the right choice.
With its adorable appearance, it was too easy to bring a crisis of trust to Bai’s family!
For the sake of the rats’ harmonious life, Wang Chen could only sacrifice himself.
He hoped Bai would appreciate his good intentions.
“Zhī zhī!”
The big white rat nodded its head, then suddenly darted in front of Wang Chen’s palm and bit down on his middle finger.
“Zhī~”
Wang Chen’s skin didn’t break, but Bai almost chipped a tooth!
Wang Chen immediately laughed, “Let me do it.”
The Heavenly Dragon Vajra Method he practiced had already reached the Golden Body level, his body as strong as steel and extremely powerful, able to withstand even magic artifacts, so Bai could no longer bite through it!
But Wang Chen understood what Bai meant and immediately drove the Ruyi Flying Needle to prick his fingertip, forcing out a drop of essence blood.
Then he dabbed it on the forehead of the little Golden Fox hamster.
This was the most basic beast taming Dharma Technique, part of the foundational knowledge of cultivation.
The drop of blood that Wang Chen squeezed out was also quite special, infused with his Mana, Qi-Blood, and Soul Power!
The crimson drop seeped into the fur and instantly merged.
“Yīng~”
The little one let out a soft cry, and between its ears appeared a bright red blood mole like a gemstone!
With the birth of the blood mole, Wang Chen immediately felt an indissoluble bond with the little one in his palm.
A string of cause and effect!
A sense of closeness sprang up, bringing him joy and delight.
“From now on, your name will be Yuanyuan.”
It was plump and soft, inheriting the name of one of the hamsters he had fed in his previous life seemed fitting.
And Wang Chen had surreptitiously observed.
Yuanyuan was also a sister.
No mistake.
The little one extended its tiny pink tongue and licked Wang Chen’s palm.
Conveying its admiration.
As if to say, “Please take care of me for the rest of your life, Master!”
Mmm, what a cute little fellow!
“Zhī zhī!”
At this moment, the big white rat called out twice more.
It rubbed Wang Chen’s finger with its nose, then quickly picked up the little bundle that had just crawled over.
The Brocade Fur Rat followed suit, picking up another one.
As if they had discussed it beforehand, they coordinated perfectly.
Before Wang Chen could react, the couple had already darted underneath the desk and into the ventilation duct.
They had run away.
They actually ran away!?
“Wait!”
Wang Chen was dumbfounded, “Bai, you’re not going to say goodbye properly?”
Although he couldn’t ask Bai to sing “The Crossroads Where the Phoenix Flowers Bloom” before leaving.
The couple seemed to be in a rush to shake off their burden and flee in haste.
Why like that?
Wang Chen had a bad feeling, akin to “parents leaving their naughty child at the grandparents’ doorstep and quickly driving away from the scene.”
This child was completely unwanted!
“Yīng yīng.”
He and Yuanyuan in his palm stared at each other, speechless and choked up.
Never mind!
Wang Chen sighed deeply—since he had chosen the little one, no matter how much trouble it caused, he had to keep raising it, even with tears.
After some thought, Wang Chen put Yuanyuan back on the desk.
He rummaged through his Storage Bag for tools and materials and began to craft a pet house himself.
While Wang Chen had resumed his old craft.
Yuanyuan was not content to stay put.
It crawled around the tabletop for a while, then suddenly accelerated and leaped onto Wang Chen’s arm, its little claws gripping his sleeve as it climbed his shoulder.
Wang Chen turned his head to look at the little one crouched on his shoulder.
The latter was curiously looking at the unfinished little wooden house, clearly not understanding that it was to be its future home.
Wang Chen couldn’t help but smile.
