“Stop! What are you trying to do to it?!”
Chen Yun was stunned as he returned from the restroom, yelling at the crowd in his office.
A Few Minutes Later
“I'm so sorry, CEO… I didn't realize it was your pet!”
Back in the CEO's office, the secretary bowed deeply in apology to Chen Yun, who was massaging his temples to calm down.
Behind the secretary stood a group of security guards and male employees, holding electric batons, mops, chairs, and other strange items.
“It's fine. Ignorance is no sin. Return to your posts,” Chen Yun said with a wry smile.
How could he blame the secretary?
He had only gone to the restroom for a moment, but when he returned, the scene in his office had almost given him a heart attack.
A group of people was standing off against Larvitar.
Of course, he wasn't worried they would hurt Larvitar; he was more concerned about Larvitar losing its temper.
What if it used Stomp and shattered the office floor? Or Rock Throw and seriously injured someone?
The guards and employees, curious about the green dinosaur-like creature, whispered as they left the office.
“What kind of pet was that?”
“Looks like a green lizard, but something about it feels… off.”
“I've never seen anything like it. It seemed so intelligent—its eyes had human-like emotions.”
“Did you see its teeth? It was gnawing on that desk like it was tofu!”
Chen Yun heard their murmurs but said nothing, merely smiling.
“Ah! My little ancestor, you can't chew on that!”
Turning around, Chen Yun saw Larvitar gnawing on his desk again. He couldn't help but laugh and press down on Larvitar's horn affectionately.
The shopkeeper had warned him that Larvitar was a big eater, but he had just fed it a box of Energy Cubes before leaving.
Was it hungry again so soon? Even if it was, chewing on wood wasn't the solution!
“You…”
Larvitar turned its head, looking at Chen Yun with pitiful, teary eyes.
“Alright, alright, I'll get you more Energy Cubes.”
“You~you!”
Larvitar instantly lit up, hugging Chen Yun's leg and nuzzling it gently. Its cry was soft and happy.
“Haha~”
Chen Yun bent down, rubbing Larvitar's head. It was simply too endearing.
The secretary, watching Larvitar eagerly anticipate its meal, blinked in confusion. Was it just her imagination, or was this green dinosaur a little… cute?
After placing a box of Energy Cubes on the floor, Larvitar immediately pounced on it, munching away contentedly.
“By the way, CEO, Magic City University has invited you as a special guest for their 20th-anniversary celebration,” the secretary said respectfully as Chen Yun sat down.
“The anniversary of my alma mater?” Chen Yun mused.
“Yes, it's in two weeks.”
“Accept the invitation and clear my schedule for that day,” Chen Yun replied after some thought. It was his alma mater, after all, and he could set a good example for the younger students.
More importantly, Magic City University was the top school in the region, producing many talented individuals.
“Understood,” the secretary nodded.
“Xiao Xin, what do you think of Larvitar?”
Noticing his secretary's frequent glances at Larvitar, Chen Yun smiled faintly and asked.
“Huh? It's very… unique and unfamiliar, but kind of cute,” she replied hesitantly after a moment's thought.
“By the way, Xiao Xin, have you ever owned a pet?”
“I used to have a cat when I was in school.”
“Great. Tomorrow, if you're free, come with me to the pet store,” Chen Yun said, looking at Larvitar, who was now lying on the floor, patting its little belly contentedly.
He realized he might have neglected Larvitar. It probably needed a companion to help expend its energy.
“Huh?” The secretary was confused.
“Oh, and Xiao Xin, you should get a Pokémon too. That way, we can occasionally battle,” Chen Yun suggested after some thought.
“Huh??” The secretary tilted her head, utterly bewildered.
Pokémon? Battles? What on earth was he talking about?
Looking at the corner of his desk, which Larvitar had already chewed through, Chen Yun had an idea.
“By the way, order a new desk. Have it delivered as soon as possible. When it arrives, let Larvitar keep this one—it seems to really like it.”
The secretary: “…”
Her head was spinning.
Pokémon Home
“So, would you like to give it a try?”
Gu Xin smiled at the siblings in front of him, holding out the store's Pokédex.
“Can I really draw Pokémon like Diancie, Charmander, or Vulpix with this?”
Ruan Xinyi blinked her big eyes, curiosity evident in her expression.
She had calmed down a bit but still couldn't help glancing at the counter now and then.
“Yes, but please don't fixate on my Diancie, ma'am. If you really like it, you can try drawing one yourself,” Gu Xin said with a smile. The girl was clearly a huge Diancie fan.
Earlier, she had almost rushed to hug Diancie!
“Fine! I'll give it a shot,” Ruan Xinyi pouted but took the Pokédex anyway.
Her brother, Ruan Youxiu, remained silent, quietly watching his sister.
Even though he had seen Diancie with his own eyes, it still felt incredibly magical.
