Chapter 92: Chapter 87: Ankle +5 points

March 23rd.

8:00 a.m.

Silly dog Bai Jin squatted nearby, watching Chen Yun exercise with vigorous movements.

Tongue lolling out, Bai Jin looked rather dazed.

Its ears lay softly on either side, perking up when it heard a strange noise or its master’s voice, then drooping confusedly again, giving it a slow but attentive cute charm.

Its nose was moist and small, shiny black like lacquer, trembling gently with its breathing, adding a touch of childishness.

In front of it,

was a scene quite contrasting to its cuteness.

Chen Yun, on a not yet completely shattered wooden board, swung the battle drum’s bronze hammer and a 300-kilogram barbell with abandon.

Each swishing sound carried endless power.

Every swish caught Bai Jin’s curious attention, then it would tilt its head and gaze at Chen Yun.

For a moment, wildness and adorableness coexisted harmoniously in this scene.

Suddenly, Chen Yun noticed a car arriving downstairs.

It was loaded with well-packed computers, desks, chairs, stools, green plants...

A courier got off the car and started making a phone call.

Then, Bai Shi next door, after receiving a phone call as well, rushed over and knocked on the main door.

"What’s up?"

Chen Yun put down his exercise equipment and walked to the door, Bai Jin also scampering at his heels, bouncing along.

"Brother Yun, can you help me move something?"

"Right, this is the personal information of that drunk from yesterday."

As he spoke, Bai Shi sneakily handed Chen Yun a slip of paper.

Glancing at the phone number, popular messaging app account and password, specific address, workplace, even his parents’ home address written on it,

Chen Yun squinted with a face full of disbelief, "Good lord, you think I’m planning a massacre or something, what do I need this information for?"

He helplessly glared at Bai Shi.

He indeed had not paid much mind to the possibility of the drunk seeking revenge, considering it nothing serious.

Moreover, such a trivial matter wouldn’t justify silencing the drunk completely; at most, if the drunk dared to seek revenge, just make him jump off a building voluntarily.

Most importantly, if he really wanted to eliminate the drunk’s entire family, he actually wouldn’t need Bai Shi to provide this information.

"Hehehe, know thy enemy, and you will win a hundred battles."

"Don’t worry, with a little digging, I’ve found him plenty of loopholes; forget suing you for assault, I could even turn around and extort him."

Bai Shi chuckled twice, exuding confidence.

Regarding this,

Chen Yun rolled his eyes helplessly, then continued, "Let’s get back to why you want my help. You came back quite late last night, why the rush to move stuff so early?"

He remembered Bai Shi returned after one in the morning, smelling of various street foods, obviously have spent a late night walking the streets with Sun Huwen.

Given Bai Shi’s nature, a full eight hours of sleep with a sense of ceremony was a must, not a minute more, not a minute less.

However now,

it was hardly six hours of sleep before he rushed over due to a phone call, looking like he was about to pick up a delivery.

"Xiao Wen doesn’t know about my past, and I haven’t planned on telling her."

"Right now, she only knows about my false identity number 72, which is of an orphan who inherited a million US dollars in overseas funds."

"While shopping with her last night, she seriously talked to me about the future, telling me I can’t live idly like an unemployed bum every day."

Bai Shi helplessly scratched his already scarce hair.

Though his expression was helpless, Chen Yun could faintly see the happiness in him.

"So what then?"

Still giving Bai Shi another look,

Chen Yun inquired.

"So yeah, last night she seriously planned our future for me."

"Remember I said I own the fifth floor, and she refused when I invited her to live there? When we were shopping last night, she seriously suggested I utilize the fifth floor for something else, to not just sit around."

"How could I refuse such a girl’s suggestion? Of course, I couldn’t."

"So, I bought a bunch of computers and furniture, planning to first turn the fifth floor into a small internet café."

Bai Shi explained, his excitement evident as he clapped his hands.

His excitement, naturally, wasn’t because he was setting up a shop; it stemmed purely from having a caring girlfriend, which thrilled him greatly.

Chen Yun, looking at his now overly excited and happy friend Bai Shi, wordlessly went downstairs.

Rather than listening to Bai Shi continue to brag, he decided to help Bai Shi finish moving the stuff quickly.

The two of them went down together and confirmed some details with the courier.

Then, the three of them ran up and down.

With the help of Chen Yun, the freak of nature, all the items were moved in less than half an hour.

The two rooms on the fifth floor were quickly transformed.

Looking at the nascent internet café setup in the two rooms, Bai Shi nodded quite satisfied.

Although there was still a lot of dust to clean, and the arrangement of desks, chairs, and computers was rather messy, the concept of the internet café was evident.

The morning breeze,

blowing through the open living room window of the fifth floor, brought a cool freshness.

Earlier, Chen Yun had set an alarm for 8:30 am, but his phone suddenly rang.

Beside him, Bai Shi raised his eyebrows in confusion, "Do you have something to do?"

Chen Yun nodded.

Indeed, there was something rather important to do today.

"Need to take Bai Jin for vaccination."

Chen Yun said to Bai Shi.

According to what the unscrupulous pet shop owner had said, Bai Jin had been dewormed already; just needed a vaccination after a week.

Today was roughly a week.

"Make sure to come back early, I’ll get someone to clean up here later, and at noon, I’ve invited Xiao Wen and the others to come over to play and celebrate the opening."

"Oh, by the way, how do you feel about Xiao Wen’s best friend? She’s still a senior student—almost five or six years younger than you," Bai Shi said, winking at Chen Yun.

Seeing this,

Chen Yun reluctantly gave a bitter smile.

Although he was thankful to Bai Shi for this matchmaking suggestion, the thing was...

He had no interest in women at the moment, and most crucially, everyone looked terribly flawed in his eyes.

The constantly secreted sebum, the perpetually unclean buttocks, the dense pores all over the body, the ever-decaying cells...

Even the human facial features seemed to him like holes in a moldy rag.

He tried his best to ignore these thoughts.

Yet, they were still rather disturbing.

The fact that he hadn’t yet come to view humans as lower species, that he wasn’t repulsed or afraid of others coming too close, was already quite commendable.

Not to mention anything about love and romance.

As opposed to romantic love, he now cared more about the life Evolution happening within him.

He just wanted to exercise every day and then wait for the "slumber evolution" that occurred every seven days.

This repetitive daily routine, observing his gradual evolution, was addictive, more than anything else.

So, he casually responded to Bai Shi, simply saying he would come early to celebrate the grand opening with him and didn’t elaborate on any other topic.

...

Arriving home, Chen Yun picked up the cage he received when he bought the dog and placed a patiently waiting Bai Jin inside before heading out.

He rode the electric bike toward the nearest pet hospital.

During the ride, Bai Jin, who hadn’t been out for a while, seemed a bit scared and sat quietly in the cage without making a sound.

Before long, they reached the hospital.

After registering his personal information, along with Bai Jin’s name, age, gender, and deworming status, the staff proficiently took Bai Jin to prepare for vaccination.

Chen Yun didn’t follow immediately.

He was thoughtfully looking at the promotional phrases written on the wall behind the counter in the pet hospital, which included some services offered by this facility.

Looking at the pet boarding section, he couldn’t help but narrow his eyes, deep in thought.

It’s not that he didn’t want to keep Bai Jin anymore; these past days as he seriously worked out, Bai Jin quietly watched on, presenting a surreal harmony that blended cuteness and wildness akin to ’Beauty and the Beast.’

This comforted Chen Yun quite a bit.

The purpose of keeping a dog was fulfilled; having an extremely clingy dog meant he couldn’t consider himself lonely.

But...

Chen Yun planned to visit his hometown in Jiangnan Province in a few days.

It was meant to be a surprise for his mother, who he hadn’t seen in a while but who had called a few days ago saying she missed him.

During that period, there would be no one to look after Bai Jin.

Considering that Bai Shi now had a girlfriend, it wouldn’t be right to always expect him to take care of Bai Jin.

Others might not have that much time.

Hence, Chen Yun thought it might be worth considering the boarding services of this pet hospital.

He discussed the boarding service fees and details with the receptionist for a while and then went to Bai Jin’s side to watch the staff administer the vaccine.

Because Chen Yun had arrived.

Bai Jin, who was a bit restless and trying to struggle just moments ago, calmed down immediately.

Chen Yun smiled seeing this.

After spending a significant amount of time together and observing, he could confirm that Bai Jin had genuinely calmed down.

Even without relying on his "Emotion Perception" ability.

Given Chen Yun’s now robust observational skills, he could easily discern some of Bai Jin’s probable intentions just from its barking alone.

Each bark differed subtly, and Chen Yun could hear it.

He could also determine its current emotional and physical state through its breathing, movements, heartbeat, and even smell, after observing for several days.

So.

He was certain Bai Jin had genuinely relaxed.

Bai Jin simply let the staff member inject it and quietly watched Chen Yun.

When everything was over, Bai Jin glanced at Chen Yun, hesitated for a moment, then happily started running around in the toy-filled observation room.

"Mr. Chen, we still need to observe for another two hours, just to ensure there are no adverse reactions,"

The staff member approached Chen Yun and said with a smile.

It was a mandatory process post-vaccination.

Chen Yun nodded in understanding.

......................

When the business at the pet hospital was concluded,

It was just shy of 11 AM.

Chen Yun called Bai Shi to ask where they were meeting for lunch to celebrate the grand opening.

The answer was at home.

So Chen Yun promptly took Bai Jin and headed straight to Bai Shi’s house, his constantly active "Transparent World Perception" already detecting three people inside.

After knocking,

It was Sun Huwen, already aware of his arrival, who opened the door, revealing a friendly smile.

She was still wearing a beige beret today, but her skirt had also changed to beige.

Combined with her cascading long hair, she appeared particularly sunny and cheerful.

Behind her,

Bai Shi was arrogantly shuffling cards at the living room table, with Jiang Anping waiting to deal the cards, slowly looking up when she heard the door.

Today, she had tied her long hair into a ponytail. Her upper body was covered by a simple yet chic blue blouse, natural folds lending a casual drape.

She paired it with a loose, comfortable pair of straight-leg jeans cut just above the ankles, subtly revealing her shapely and elegant ankle, adding a touch of freshness and agility.

This made even Chen Yun, who felt everyone was like decaying rags and tried his best to ignore the high-definition view and forget the discomfort,

couldn’t help but mentally compliment:

Ankles +5 points!
