Chapter 12

The living room of the domineering leader Finks covers an area of ​​300 square meters. It is a long way to walk from the most private bedroom to the living room.

Lin Wang, Lida, Will and Yanshi stood there, staring at him anxiously.

Lin Wang also used the trirecorder to scan him up and down, confirming that all the values, especially the mental power fluctuations, had returned to the normal level of green, before he felt relieved.

Several people surrounded him and talked at once:

"Boss, how are you feeling now? Are you feeling unwell?"

"Boss, what just happened?"

"Did you catch the person who broke in without authorization? What an uneducated fellow!"

"Boss, give me his name and I'll take care of him."

Finks thought of the little fur ball left on the bed, who was probably either kneading milk or daydreaming.

He didn't realize that his usually cold expression had softened considerably as he thought of the little guy: "It's okay, I've already taken care of it."

The others became even more suspicious when they saw how gentle his tone was.

It’s not like there haven’t been invaders on the starship before. If the boss executed them like he did before, he wouldn’t have this expression.

You should look down on them with disdain, and tell them coldly to get rid of the garbage.

Instead of this look of... uh, gentleness? Loving kindness? Doting?

No matter which adjective is used to describe Finks, it gives other people goosebumps.

Will muttered, "It's impossible that the boss has a mistress in his golden house."

Lida denied: "Zang Jiao wouldn't have such an old father's expression."

Lin Wang followed her words: "Could it be an illegitimate child?"

Rock refused to believe it: "Impossible!"

Finks narrowed his eyes. "What are you talking about?"

The four of them said in unison: "Nothing!"

Lin Wang looked at the expectant expressions of the others and knew that as Finks' most trusted deputy (self-proclaimed), he would always have to shoulder the heavy responsibility.

He cleared his throat and decided to ask on behalf of everyone: "Boss, um, you——"

His voice got stuck mid-sentence.

His sight suddenly lowered.

A small figure appeared behind Finks.

It was a human cub, very young, only about two or three years old.

He had no clothes, but was draped in a red cloth. Lin Wang took a closer look and realized it was the velvet curtains in the corridor of the detention room.

Just now when I went to the solitary confinement room to check, I felt that there was something bare.

The cub was tiny, with skin as white as milk, wrapped in curtains that were too wide, like a small toy that was wearing the wrong clothes, or the small pistil in the center of a red flower.

Lin Wang thought he was dazzled and rubbed his eyes.

When I opened my eyes again, the baby had not disappeared, he was still there.

He was afraid that he was hallucinating, so he quickly turned to look at his companions.

Fortunately, the others also showed the same expression as if they had seen a ghost, and their eyes were wider than each other.

Will trembled: "Boss, you..."

Finks frowned: "Why do you call me 'old' so many times?"

Will exclaimed, "Boss, you really have a illegitimate child!"

Finks: “……?”

Not to mention illegitimate children.

Where does “Sure enough” come from?

He looked indignant, perhaps even a little puzzled, and turned his head following the frightened gaze of his subordinates.

The little cub was wearing a velvet curtain that looked like a long skirt dragging on the ground. When she saw him turn around, she tilted her little face up and smiled at him, revealing two sweet dimples.

However, this cuteness could not impress the Golden Tyrant.

Finks took a step back and snapped, "Who are you?"

The cub blinked, not understanding why his brother, who was playing with him just now, suddenly turned against him.

He tightened his oversized cape, confused and timid: "I, I'm a baby..."

Finks hadn't exchanged names or addresses with him yet: "What's a 'baby cub'? I've never heard of it."

He didn't know, but someone knew.

Lin Wang and Lida shouted at the same time: "Baby?"

They had previously given the kittens to Ling Xi, and had not seen the two little guys since then. They thought they were playing in Ling Xi's room, and were glad that the two little ones would not be affected by Finks's rage.

Turns out, not only is one of them in the boss's room, but he's also transformed from a kitten into a human cub?

Or rather, a human cub calling itself a cat.

...Does all this really make sense?

They looked at the little guy carefully. Whether it was the long cream-colored hair with a little curl, the round light golden eyes, or the innocent and cute look, it really looked like a kitten.

Li Jue saw the adults looked suspicious and guessed that they didn't believe that he was a transformed cat.

In fact, when he suddenly turned back, he looked at his smooth little hands, which were no longer furry claws and pink pads, and was stunned for a while before he remembered that he seemed to be a human.

Okay, let me prove it to you!

The cub grasped the "cloak" with its small hands, closed its eyes, took a deep breath, held its breath, and tried hard—

Then, a pair of kitten ears suddenly appeared on his head.

The pale gold color was exactly the same as the hair color, and it was indeed the kitten that the dragons were familiar with.

The cub let go of his hand, and the cape fell off. He turned around to show them that there was a fluffy cat tail behind his little butt.

It is absolutely a real baby, 100% genuine!

The cub sneezed again. Lyda, who had identified children as kittens, quickly grabbed her cloak, no, the curtains, and carefully wrapped the little thing around her. She picked him up and said, "Okay, okay, we believe you. You are the cub. So, are you a kitten or a human?"

Li Jue grew up with a single father. Although he doesn't think there's anything wrong with this kind of life, sometimes when he sees other children with mothers, he still feels a little curious.

Where is his mother? Is she also a gentle and beautiful person like Sister Lydia?

Zizi thought seriously, shook his head seriously, and answered seriously: "I don't know."

It doesn’t look like a kitten, nor does it look like a child.

He is that...what is that?

Today's assistant Momo is still not online, and the bug where the word "system" is blocked by the entire infinite space has not been fixed yet.

Lydia sighed, touched his head, and thought about asking little Lingxi later.

The child seemed very familiar with the little cub, and perhaps he would know why this unheard-of cat tribe could also transform into human form like dragons.

Anyway, where did that little guy go?

On the other side, Finks had already filled in the blanks from Lin Wang and Will about how Li Jue came, what species it was, and what its name was.

He stared at the little cub wearing the curtains with complicated eyes, remembering that he seemed to... yell at him.

The tyrant would not understand that the tangled feeling in his stomach at this moment is called regret.

Finks stretched out his hand towards Lida: "Give him to me."

Just as Lyda was about to lean forward, the little cub in her arms suddenly turned around and hugged her neck, with its butt facing Finks, refusing to face the man no matter what.

Finks: “…”

Finks frowned in disbelief. "What does this mean?"

Lida was also a little confused and asked the little one in her arms: "Why don't you hold me, baby?"

Li Jue pouted and said in a wronged voice, "Brother, you are such a bad boy."

Lida was stunned for a moment before she realized that the "brother" he was referring to was Finks.

Oh my god, there was actually a day when the Golden Tyrant was called brother and accused of not being gentle enough.

Lin Wang burst out laughing: "This little guy has quite a personality."

Will laughed at first, then made a zipper-like motion when he received Finks's glare.

As usual, Rock stood at his guarding position a little distance away from them, looking worriedly at the eldest and then at the cub.

If the eldest gets angry and wants to eat the cub, he... uh...

Normally, he would clean the neck of the prey and prepare a knife and fork for the boss.

But for some reason, when he thought about what would happen if the little cub in front of him was eaten, he actually hoped that the boss would show mercy.

But Finks had no intention of eating Li Jue.

He walked closer, carefully patted Zizi's shoulder and said, "Are you angry with me?"

Although Finks's movements were much lighter than at other times, he still overestimated the cub, and Li Jue was actually shaken by his slap.

The cub still refused to face him, burying his face in Lydia's shoulder, mumbling in a baby voice, "Angry!"

Lyda looked at Finks with some worry, fearing that the boss would get angry and string them all together and nail them to the wall.

They can actually bear it, but the baby is so small and so weak, right?

She carefully hugged the cub and looked at Finks.

The latter's expression showed no sign of anger, but rather interest.

He poked Li Jue again.

The cub's soft, delicate and elastic skin is really nice to pinch.

Finks took a half step to the right and asked knowingly, "Why are you angry?"

Zizi found himself facing each other and quickly turned around.

In short, I must point my butt towards adults.

And she did not forget to complain in a baby voice:

"Brother, vicious cub."

"Evil cub."

"It's a vicious cub!"

How can you be so mean to your kid?

Bao has a little temper.

The baby is going to have a bad temper!

Finks: “…”

Lin Wang and Will almost fainted from laughing.

They had followed Finks for at least a hundred years and had witnessed his brutal side as well as his powerful side as the leader of the tribe.

I've seen how Finks treats his enemies, and I've also seen how he treats his family.

But, never, never, no one has ever dared to accuse Finks in front of him like this - and for the reason of being bullied!

Lin Wang thanked himself for the one hundred and first time for making the decision to bring the cub back to the nest. Otherwise, how could his boring and stagnant working life be filled with waves of surprises like it is now?

Rock's eyes nervously moved back and forth between Finks and Li Jue, ready at all times to step forward and stop the boss immediately if he got angry.

Only the only girl present seemed to understand everything. She patted the cub's back, coaxed it, and asked Finks with a smile, "Boss, what should we do now?"
