So Qianyuan felt a sense of regret, as if she was full but hadn't eaten anything particularly good, and her mouth still felt empty.

Now that the little guy has been pampered, he's not used to such forbearance anymore. He turned around and gnawed on the wall.

Zhou Jinze: ? ? ? ? ?

He immediately rushed over, grabbed the cub by the chin, and pulled it off the wall.

"Spit it out! You can't eat the wall plaster!"

But the troublesome kid had already chewed and swallowed it.

Zhou Jinze felt his face was about to turn as black as the bottom of a pot from anger. He forcibly pried open the little guy's mouth and pressed his fingertips against the cub's tiny, rice-like teeth.

"Spit it out quickly."

But Zhou Jinze got nothing except for being bitten by Qian Yuan.

The plaster has already been swallowed; it can't be spat out.

Zhou Jinze could only immediately send a message to Lin Jue, urging him to come over quickly.

Lin Jue: No, I'm just a doctor. Do you really want me to be reckless and charge into a monster horde?

Unfortunately, Zhou Jinze didn't care. He just kept a close eye on the cub, afraid that something might happen to it.

But the cub that swallowed a large piece of wall plaster was full of energy and seemed to be in much better spirits. It was now swimming around in the ball pit in its cub form, looking very happy.

"Ah! Ah ah ee ee... um..."

While playing, the little one also looked at other toys, wishing he could be in two places at once to play every single one of them.

Seeing him like that, Zhou Jinze felt both amused and sorry for him.

If he hadn't been born in this time, but in the original safe and happy world, Qianyuan would have received so much love, instead of being used by them here.

As Zhou Jinze was reminiscing, the tired toddler bit the head of the carousel horse again.

Those soft, white teeth seemed to possess the power of shark teeth, instantly crushing the solid wooden horse and swallowing it with a crunching sound.

Zhou Jinze: ? ? ! ? ?

If she eats any more, Qianyuan's human guardian will pinch her philtrum.

But Qianyuan still found the building so tempting, just like the black thread ball he ate on the first night he lived with Zhou Jinze.

It's just a pity that he doesn't know how to transform back into that majestic and imposing form, swallowing the building whole, so he can only gnaw on the plaster bit by bit.

It's like a child eating teething biscuits.

Lingtian Building: Is no one speaking up for me?!

Zhou Jinze was really afraid that the little guy would continue eating. He didn't know if eating this thing would cause diarrhea. It looked so dirty, so he could only hug the cub back into his arms.

The cub stopped fussing after eating, but he couldn't get down to play while in Zhou Jinze's arms.

Qianyuan pushed Zhou Jinze's arm, but Zhou Jinze's arm was as hard as iron, and Qianyuan's short, chubby arm couldn't budge it at all.

"call……"

Qianyuan could only look up at Zhou Jinze, trying to beg him to put her down with his eyes.

Zhou Jinze coldly replied, "Impossible, don't even think about it."

Qianyuan:

Zhou Jinze's face was stiff.

Qianyuan kept sending [Poor thing] [Poor thing] [Poor thing].

Zhou Jinze was defeated.

He held Qianyuan in his arms, took a long stride, and sat on the carousel. As a grown man, he was completely out of place in this fairytale-like, colorful style, and he felt extremely cramped sitting on that small, short carousel.

However, Zhou Jinze continued to spoil her blindly, seemingly oblivious to the fact.

After riding the carousel twice, Qianyuan wanted to ride the teacups. Given Zhou Jinze's physical abilities, he could get Qianyuan to the speed of a pilot's flight exam.

Qianyuan: "Wow~ Oh~~~~"

As Zhou Jinze listened to Qian Yuan's praise, he spun faster and faster, and Qian Yuan's voice sounded like wavy lines. The two of them, one human and one octopus, spun around like a whirlwind top in the arena.

When Lin Jue arrived: Damn it, this bastard has gone mad with his cubs.

When Zhou Jinze finished his turn and came down without changing his expression, the cub next to him jumped down on its own and then climbed the wavy line.

Yes, Chiyuki was completely dizzy from being turned around, and she didn't even have the strength to move her tentacles. She could only crawl on the ground.

Lin Jue looked at the cubs lying on the ground like puppies, then glanced at Zhou Jinze: ...

Zhou Jinze frowned uncomfortably: "He didn't seem to be in any discomfort or feel nauseous just now."

As soon as she finished speaking, Qianyuan exclaimed, "Yue—"

Lin Jue and Zhou Jinze were immediately shocked.

Lin Jue: "I knew it! How could a cub follow you around like that? He's still a child! How can you be so heartless? Haven't you ever taken care of a younger sibling before?!"

Zhou Jinze stubbornly insisted, "He probably vomited because he gnawed on the wall plaster earlier."

However, the cub was stunned from being shaken, so it only vomited a little water and then shrank in size.

Lin Jue said sadly, "Look! The child has been dehydrated from being shaken!!"

Zhou Jinze: ...

He didn't know that high-speed rotation would dehydrate the octopus larvae.

Fortunately, what Qianyuan ate earlier had already been digested, otherwise he might have vomited up other indescribable deep-space vomit.

The cub, now dizzy from being shaken, finally calmed down and lost its appetite. Zhou Jinze and Lin Jue quickly carried it back to the camp.

Because they haven't finished exploring the entire building, they can't go back yet, and they'll rest at the edge of the safe zone at night.

After confirming that the cub was alright, the two breathed a sigh of relief. The cub, who had been playing until it was exhausted, had fallen asleep in Zhou Jinze's arms.

"It's good that he's alright. We'll continue exploring tomorrow. I think we can catch some prey to take back so that C-036 can have food at the base."

Zhou Jinze said in a low voice.

Lin Jue had no objection: "Of course you can. If you have the ability, you can do whatever you want."

Zhou Jinze is now quite sensitive to words like "walking sideways," "high speed," "spinning," and "dehydration." Upon hearing this, he immediately fell silent and stared coldly at Lin Jue.

"No, I wasn't mocking you, I was just speaking normally! Are you a mediator in the communications department? Why are you so sensitive to keywords!"

Zhou Jinze didn't answer, but simply said, "Go to sleep."

Lin Jue, on the contrary, became agitated: "Hey! Did you even listen to what I said? I didn't mean that! Hey!"

Regardless, Qianyuan slept very soundly that night.

His dreams were filled with colorful carousels, ball pits, trampolines, and Zhou Jinze.

In his dream, Zhou Jinze suddenly transformed into a long, long black dragon, which coiled around Qian Yuan and began to spin rapidly.

"Waaaaah..."

I'm so dizzy, so dizzy...

Struggling in her dream, Qian Yuan kicked Zhou Jinze, who was sleeping next to her, in the chest. Zhou Jinze woke up before falling off the bed and saw Qian Yuan with a scrunched-up face, muttering in her sleep, sometimes feeling aggrieved and sometimes happy.
