Chapter 62 - 62 62 The Mouse

62: Chapter 62: The Mouse 62: Chapter 62: The Mouse Wu Xiaoyu buried her head in Tang Zhong’s embrace, while Tang Zhong stared at the little white mouse on the ground, and the little white mouse also stared back with wide eyes at the two of them.

“Get it away!” Wu Xiaoyu cried out.

“It’s just a mouse!” Tang said.

“Mice are so scary, hurry, get it away!” Wu Xiaoyu said urgently.

“Alright!” Tang Zhong could only comply.

Are all girls this timid?

“Can you get off me first then?” Tang Zhong asked.

“No…

there’s a mouse!” Wu Xiaoyu said, her hands gripping Tang Zhong tightly.

The two were very close, and as Tang Zhong looked down, his eyes brightened – although the girl seemed frail, she was quite a catch.

But no blood flowed from his nose – could it really be that he was recovering?

That was great news.

Then Tang Zhong looked at the white mouse on the ground again and noticed that, unbeknownst to him, it had left – the spot where it had been was now empty.

It seemed the mouse had already gone away!

“Come down, the mouse is gone!” Tang Zhong told Wu Xiaoyu.

“It’s gone?” Wu Xiaoyu asked.

“Yeah, look if you don’t believe me!” Tang Zhong pointed to where the mouse had been.

Wu Xiaoyu turned her head to look, and sure enough, there was no mouse.

She let out a deep sigh of relief before noticing how close she was to Tang Zhong, her face flushing red.

She had never been this close to a man before.

“Let me down first!” Wu Xiaoyu’s voice was very soft.

Tang Zhong released his hands.

Wu Xiaoyu hurriedly clambered out of Tang Zhong’s embrace, appearing calm on the surface, but quite nervous on the inside.

“Thanks for just now…” Wu Xiaoyu said with her head lowered, not daring to look at Tang Zhong.

“No problem, we’re coworkers after all.

It’s nothing!” Tang Zhong chuckled.

“Oh…” Wu Xiaoyu nodded, then said, “Shall we continue…?”

“Sure!”

Wu Xiaoyu turned and walked toward a pile of papers, feeling utterly embarrassed.

It was only her first day and she had already made such a fool of herself in front of her new colleague.

How shy she felt!

But then, recalling Tang Zhong’s warm embrace, she couldn’t help but feel comforted.

However, she hadn’t taken many steps before she screamed again.

This time, in the place where the mouse had been, there were now two mice huddled together, looking like a couple.

Wu Xiaoyu only glanced at them before, terrified, she jumped up again.

Tang Zhong, completely taken by surprise, saw Wu Xiaoyu jump into the air and caught her in a princess hold once more.

Wu Xiaoyu clung to Tang Zhong as though he was her lifeline, shivering in fear.

“There…

there are two mice, get rid of them quickly!”

“Alright, alright, I see the mice!” Tang Zhong responded.

“Just make them go away!” Wu Xiaoyu said, still burying her head in Tang Zhong’s chest.

However, Tang Zhong couldn’t resist women, and at that moment, his head heated up and blood trickled from his nose.

Seeing this, Tang Zhong couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.

He thought he wouldn’t have to die after all, but nothing had changed.

Well, he’d better get rid of the mice first!

But when Tang Zhong took a look at what the two mice were up to, he was rendered speechless as one of the mice was giving birth.

You could see one mouse with a considerably swollen belly, obviously pregnant.

Then Tang Zhong burst into laughter – this was just too funny.

Who would have thought he’d encounter such a scene?

Hearing Tang Zhong’s laughter, Wu Xiaoyu quickly asked, “Are you laughing because the mice went away?”

“No!” Tang shook his head.

“Then get rid of them!” Wu Xiaoyu became anxious.

“Let’s not.

It would be unfair to them to chase them away like that,” Tang said.

“What’s unfair about it?

I’m scared of mice!” Wu Xiaoyu said.

“I mean, we shouldn’t bother them while they’re doing this,” Tang explained.

They were in the middle of giving birth, and it would cause trouble if they were disturbed.

“What is there not to bother them with?” Wu Xiaoyu said.

“Just take a look and you’ll know!” Tang pointed to the mice.

“No way, I’m afraid they’ll bite me!” Wu Xiaoyu was still nervous.

“Don’t worry, they’re enjoying themselves right now, too lazy to bother biting you,” Tang chuckled, as the two mice were in the act of creating new life.

“Really?

Then I’ll look!” Wu Xiaoyu whispered, then she turned her body around to see the two mice together.

At the moment, the pregnant mouse lay on the ground, with the male mouse beside her, appearing to lend support.

However, Wu Xiaoyu didn’t understand what they were doing.

Ordinary people wouldn’t know, only those with a background in biology would understand.

“What are they doing?” Wu Xiaoyu’s eyes widened as she watched the mice’s actions.

“They are having babies,” Tang stated.

Having babies?

Wu Xiaoyu’s eyes went wide, and then her gaze fell on the pregnant mouse, and seeing the large belly, everything clicked in place.

“Right, having babies.

I bet the pair went out for a stroll, and then the female mouse went into difficult labor, this is all biology, it’s normal you don’t understand!” Tang Zhong began to ramble.

“That’s true, I really don’t know much about biology.

I majored in Chinese Literature in college!” Wu Xiaoyu said.

“Tang Zhong, did you graduate from a biology department?”

“Yes…

I guess I did!” Tang Zhong said.

“Wow, that’s impressive.

I was clueless about biology in school.

By the way, do you think it’s safe for the mice to give birth this way?” Wu Xiaoyu asked.

“They should be safe,” Tang Zhong replied.

“I want to go have a look,” Wu Xiaoyu said.

“Don’t, they’re giving birth.

They are really afraid of being disturbed by others,” Tang cautioned.

“Oh,” Wu Xiaoyu nodded.

It was then that Wu Xiaoyu realized she was still in Tang Zhong’s arms, her face instantly turning red.

She wanted to get down, but she was also scared the mice on the ground would come and bite her.

Dogs recognize faces, let alone mice.

They may seem docile now, but who knows what might happen in a while.

Since she was already being held, she decided just to stay put.

Although Wu Xiaoyu was shy, she preferred being held like this to facing the mice.

As long as she wasn’t touching the ground, she felt a gradual sense of safety.

Just then, Wu Xiaoyu looked towards the mice again, noticing neither of them was moving, she said, “Have they given birth?”
