Aojia looked down at the little leopard struggling in the blanket, and played with the cute round black dragon in his hand, "How about this, if you call my name correctly, I will give it back to you."

“…”

Rong Mingshi stretched his head and glared at him.

Aojia lowered his head and rubbed his furry head with his chin, then transformed into a figure only twice the size of the little snow leopard. He held the little black dragon in one paw and the little snow leopard in the other, and flew towards the bedroom on the second floor.

This sudden change startled the little leopard that was held in the dragon's claws. It jumped so hard that it stretched out its claws and hugged the dragon's claws tightly...the dragon's back!

Aojia of this size is big enough for the little leopard's claws to reach behind the black dragon.

Lord Black Dragon, who was flying in the air, lowered his head slightly and nodded his chin to the head of the little leopard who had become a huggable bear, in order to comfort him. However, this was obviously useless, as the little leopard hugged him even tighter.

Only when the dragon and the leopard landed safely on the bed in the bedroom did Rong the little leopard loosen his four claws, and then pounced on the evil black dragon, which was not much different in size from himself. He pressed the black dragon's back with his leopard claws and pretended to bite the dragon's wings viciously, with pretended violence in his clear leopard eyes.

Snow leopards are also predators!

The black dragon that was pounced on turned over, wrapped its dragon claws around the little leopard, and placed its other dragon wing on the little leopard's body, allowing the little leopard to use its dragon wing to grind its teeth.

Rong Mingshi gritted his teeth for a while, then opened his mouth, and used his leopard claws to pull at Aojia's dragon wings. He turned around, poking his head out from under Aojia's dragon wings, looked at the shrunken black dragon, and then looked at the chubby little black dragon next to the pillow.

Although Aojia was in his adult form with a shrunk body, not his juvenile form, Rong Mingshi was still very happy and liked it very much. He happily pressed his paws on the black dragon's belly like a little leopard, and then lay on the black dragon's body, rubbing his soft facial hair against the black dragon's belly.

No matter how cute the little black dragon was, it was not as soft and warm as a real black dragon that had shrunk in size. It made him feel more secure to hold it in his arms. Rong Mingshi found that he liked the feeling of having the black dragon's body temperature touch him more and more.

At this moment, the housekeeper who had been out collecting information came back. This is the scene he saw through the central control system in the bedroom: his soft little snow leopard with white fur was being wrapped in the dragon claws and wings of the black dragon, which was twice its size. The white and the black were entangled so intimately!

Even an orc couple wouldn't be so intimate in their animal form. Even if they were, they would only do it in the dead of night when no one would disturb them. In broad daylight, they actually... actually...

...despicable and shameless!

The butler was furious. The central processing unit in the mechanical body of the manor robot butler who was temporarily residing there suddenly cracked and a puff of green smoke rose up.

However, the dragon and the little leopard were not paying any attention at this time. Aojia tilted his dragon head slightly and looked at the little leopard lying on him. The dragon claws held the little leopard's thick claws and moved them to under his throat, a most fatal position that had never been touched by any person or any beast...

"Aojia."

The vocal cords under the black dragon's neck vibrated, making a low and elegant sound.

Rong Mingshi felt the warmth and vibration under his claws, and looked at the black dragon's mouth which didn't move much with his clear eyes.

He discovered that the vocalization of the orcs in their animal form was different from that in their human form. It had little to do with the tongue; what was important was controlling the vocal cords.

Aojia stretched out his claws to smooth the little leopard's back fur encouragingly, "Give it a try."

Rong the little leopard nodded, "Ah...ah."

…Although it sounds like a little stutter, it does make sense.

Rong Xiaobaozi was excited for a moment, and he opened his mouth and repeated a series of "Aojiya, aojiya..."

Just these few sounds made the butler, who was originally so angry that he ran to the manor to perfect those lethal weapons, suddenly stop his actions. He followed the data link of the manor back to the central control system in the bedroom and listened carefully to the voice of his child.

He had taught the child countless times over the years, but had never been able to get him to utter a single word. All he heard was the unchanging howling of a young leopard. But the Marshal had actually been able to make the child speak.

For a while, the butler's data fluctuated in a complex manner.

Not long ago, he received an order from the Duke of Oran to send the child to the research institute to extract the beast core for research use. For the safety of the child, he faked a starship accident. After that, he attacked the Duke of Oran's mansion but failed to kill the Duke of Oran.

Now Duke Oran has become suspicious of the child's starship accident and is investigating the child's whereabouts, so he immediately returned to the deserted planet, wanting to take the child away and hide him in a safer place.

However, the butler searched the entire deserted planet but could not find any trace of the little leopard except for the nutrients he left behind. Based on the clues from data analysis, he locked onto the Marshal's aircraft. Unfortunately, the aircraft's firewall was a bit powerful, and because the aircraft was in warp speed at the time, he could not get in. So the butler hacked into the Marshal's manor in the imperial capital and waited in wait.

He originally thought that the Empire's Black Dragon Marshal and the Duke of Oran were birds of a feather. After all, there were rumors in the Empire that the two families were going to marry. Unexpectedly, after searching for a few days, he still couldn't find any connection between the two, except that the Duke of Oran originally planned to arrange the Duke's daughter who replaced his child's identity to the marshal at the royal banquet.

Moreover, Marshal Black Dragon also arranged a school for the child.

If the child goes to school, his whereabouts will be exposed, so he still wants to take the little leopard away.

But looking at the happy little leopard, maybe he should have a good talk with the Marshal.

The housekeeper temporarily judged that the Marshal was still good to his children, but he silently watched the Black Dragon and the little leopard entangled with each other and learning to talk for a while. In the end, the data was still difficult to balance, so he simply blocked other signals, leaving only the voice reception, and hid in the bedroom central control system to eavesdrop.

After hundreds of times of "Aojiya", Rong Xiaobaozi finally made the accurate sound of "Aojia".

Rong Xiaobaozi fell headfirst under the black dragon's head and sighed, it was really not easy. How long would it take for him to learn how to speak?

"Very good. Other beastmen take several years after birth to learn to speak in beast form, but Rongrong only took a few days. Very impressive."

Aojia grabbed the little black dragon beside him and stuffed it into the little leopard's arms.

Rong Mingshi held the little black dragon in his arms and looked at the black dragon Aojia that was pressed under his claws. Now that he had the real one, what substitute would he want now?

Rong Mingshi put the little black dragon aside and was about to continue talking to Aojia when he felt the optical brain on his claws vibrate and a call request interface popped up.

Rong Mingshi was new to the topic and had not had much contact with other people yet. It would be nice to relax during this time of learning to speak, so he accepted the call request and chose to communicate through text.

Then words popped up on the interface in front of him.

"Shopkeeper, your energy stone is really great. I have transferred another 2,000 star coins to your account. Please be sure to accept it."

Rong Mingshi scratched his head. He really didn't expect to receive such a reply.

The other party did not receive a response from Rong Mingshi, and sent another string of text.

"Shopkeeper, I actually have a very good cooperation suggestion. Can I order energy stone carvings from you? I will provide you with animal images and higher-level energy stones, and each carving will cost you 10,000 star coins. In this way, you don't have to run an online store, buy energy stones, or pay taxes to the platform. What do you think?"

In this man's opinion, a person who could sell such a good sculpture for only 100 star coins was either extremely short of money or extremely stupid and gullible. When he saw the cat-shaped energy stone before, he quickly bought it and made more than 100,000 yuan by reselling it. If he could lock in the supply of this store owner in the future, he would be rich.

Unfortunately, although he bought something from this store, he didn't find the specific shipping address. Otherwise, he wouldn't have to call the buyer and seller contact point on the Star Network sales platform to communicate with the store owner, and he could just go directly to the store.

The black dragon Aojia, who witnessed these words nearby, shrank his pupils slightly. Ten thousand star coins?

His little leopard's carving skills surpass Principal Sterry's, and its super perception ability activated by the energy stone is only worth this small amount?

Aojia was not only the marshal of the empire, but also a shrewd businessman who ran one of the empire's most expensive resource planets and one of the empire's most prestigious hospitals. He saw at a glance the intentions of the man who had bought his little leopard's first sculpture for public display.

Although Little Leopard's first work on Star Network was only sold for 100 star coins, that was the price Little Leopard set himself. As long as Little Leopard was happy, Aojia would not mind giving it away for free. However, this man's suggestion obviously displeased Aojia.

This is using his little leopard as labor.

Just when Aojia was about to remind the little leopard, Rong Mingshi blinked, opened the Imperial Dictionary first, and began to look for words in it.

I simply replied directly, "Sorry, I'm busy."

After that, Rong Mingshi closed the interface and continued to pounce on Aojia, saying, "Aojia, chirp, chirp, chirp!"

Aojia, here we go again!

After all, Rong Mingshi was the descendant of a wealthy businessman in his previous life. He also gave his grandfather very constructive suggestions. Although he had never participated in the specific operations of the business, he had seen a pig run, but had he not eaten pork?

Rong Mingshi has now realized that there was a problem with his previous pricing.

Chick...I was taken advantage of.

But whether he wanted to make money by carving energy stones or to re-price them, he had to do it when Aojia was not at home.

Aojia, who had transformed himself into a smaller version of the black dragon to teach him how to speak, naturally had to put everything else on the back burner.

A smile appeared in the eyes of a certain black dragon, and he held the little leopard that was rubbing against his neck and continued to teach him how to speak.
