Beast Taming Patrol

Chapter 10: Chapter 4 Sympathy in Fate (Seeking Investment and Followers)

Some pets, due to their nature, need time to bond with a Beast Tamer after being brought home during the initial pet allocation, and are willing to form a contract with the Beast Tamer only after establishing a certain emotional foundation.

Considering these circumstances, the initial pet allocation is just the Beast Tamer and the pet achieving a preliminary intent to contract.

After paying the breeding fees, the Beast Tamer can bring the pet home, and there is no mandatory requirement for when to contract.

Should the Beast Tamer be unable to form a contract with the pet for some reason after bringing it home, the initial pet allocation also has corresponding explicit regulations.

Humans and pets are not in a relationship of slavery and subjugation; they are partners. Pets are not the property of humans, so even if a contract cannot be formed, the Beast Tamer cannot arbitrarily abandon or privately resell the pet they have brought back; they must return it to the corresponding breeding park, which will be responsible for further care, and the originally paid breeding fees will not be refunded.

Based on these regulations, theoretically, Lin Su could choose a pet to take home, and if he determined that he could not travel again, he could contract this pet; if he found he could travel again, he would return this pet to the breeding park.

Although this would result in a loss of a breeding fee, compared to the potential risk of delaying his application to Beast Tamer University, this was already something Lin Su could afford.

Realizing this, his face finally showed a relaxed expression.

Looking at Xue Henqing comfortably nestled in his arms, eyes closed and with an expression of enjoyment, Lin Su couldn’t help but murmur softly, “Little guy, you’ve solved a big problem for me.”

“Meow? (｡òωó｡)” (What problem?)

Xue Henqing opened her icy blue eyes and looked at Lin Su with a puzzled gaze.

It clearly hadn’t done anything except nestle in this human’s arms enjoying a massage, right?

“It’s nothing.” Lin Su chuckled softly, standing up from the chair.

Next, he had to find his initial pet.

Although the initial pet he was about to choose might not contract, this was not absolute, so he still needed to make a careful selection and not decide rashly.

As for Xue Henqing lying in his lap…

Lin Su exchanged gazes with those icy blue eyes and his face showed more helplessness, “Little guy, it would be so good if you could evolve.”

He really liked the personality of this Xue Henqing, and if by any chance it could evolve into a leader of its species, Lin Su would be willing to take this little one away, making it his second choice.

But the natural disadvantage of being stuck forever at the higher elite species level made the cultivation value of Xue Henqing extremely low.

Understanding Lin Su’s intention, Xue Henqing blinked her icy blue eyes and soon showed a woeful expression, her head gradually hanging down.

Felt rejected (*꒦ິω꒦ີ)

Seeing Xue Henqing’s ears droop and her beautiful eyes losing some of their sparkle, Lin Su felt an inexplicable pain in his heart and quickly comforted her, “Little guy, don’t cry, I’ll take you home first.”

The Xue Henqing breeding area was some distance from here, and he didn’t know how this little one had sneaked out.

Hearing Lin Su say he would take her home, Xue Henqing’s mood seemed to stabilize somewhat, rubbing Lin Su’s hand and giving a small, emotional cry.

“Meow…” (Okay then…)

Seeing that Xue Henqing’s mood was not so low anymore, Lin Su finally breathed a sigh of relief, checked the map for the location of the Xue Henqing breeding area, and while soothing the little one, he walked towards the breeding area.

Five minutes later, Lin Su appeared at the entrance to the Xue Henqing breeding area, holding the little one.

Along the way, he carefully soothed the little one’s mood, even telling it two jokes.

Although he didn’t know if the little one understood, its mood had certainly improved a lot.

There were quite a number of students inside the Xue Henqing breeding area, even more than in other elite species breeding areas.

But these students were predominantly female, apparently not here to choose pets, but to pet cats…

Given Xue Henqing’s appearance, that seemed normal.

Taking his eyes off the surroundings, Lin Su looked down at the little one lying in his arms.

He had intended to simply put the little one down and then leave to find a pet suitable for himself.

But now, even though they were already at home, the little one still seemed reluctant to leave, making Lin Su quite helpless.

In this situation, he could only seek help from the staff of the breeding area.

Just then, there was a young lady nearby with a staff badge, who seemed to be looking for something.

Lin Su walked up quickly, “Excuse me…”

The young lady, who was pretty and appeared quiet with glasses, turned her head to look at Lin Su, then her gaze fell on the Xue Henqing in Lin Su’s arms, her face quickly showing a surprise smile, “Qiuqiu! You were finally found!”

Qiuqiu? Is that this little one’s name?

Lin Su looked at the little one curled up in his arms like a small furball and immediately thought the name quite fitting.

Qiuqiu and the young lady clearly knew each other. Seeing her, its mood visibly brightened, wriggling out of Lin Su’s arms to wave a little paw at the lady.

(ฅ´ω`)ฅ

The lady skillfully picked up Qiuqiu and began playing with it, her face showing a smitten smile…

However, she soon realized there was a stranger present, her face blushing slightly, and after a discreet cough, she looked at Lin Su, “Hello, I’m Xu Jiajia, a breeder from the Xue Henqing breeding area. May I ask where you found Qiuqiu?”
