Cheng Huaijin called his parents and said that he and Cheng Woyu were at the pet center and that their newly bought Flame Wolf had an accident.
Upon hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Cheng rushed over.
Cheng Huaijin didn't have a beast tamer communicator, so he couldn't summon flying beasts. Cheng Woyu went with the doctor to discuss the Flame Wolf's condition, while Cheng's parents had to take a taxi to get there.
Taking advantage of this break, Cheng Huaijin thought of calling out the grass spirit to check its body.
But no matter how she called out, the green mark on her wrist remained motionless; the grass spirit stayed within the mark without moving. Cheng Huaijin was a little anxious. She asked the nurse at the front desk, "Nurse, is this situation of being unable to summon a pet common?"
The nurse looked at the thin girl in front of her and comforted her, "You just awakened, right? Don't worry, this is a common situation for novice beast tamers. Calm down, take a deep breath and try again."
"No." Cheng Huaijin didn't know why, but hearing the nurse's gentle voice, a feeling of grievance welled up inside her. "Everything was fine before, it was just that the grass spirit..."
Cheng Huaijin stopped speaking and didn't continue. This was the secret of the grass spirit and couldn't be told.
She had previously searched on her phone but couldn't find anything about "plant crystals".
If this is something unique to the Grass Sprite... I hope the Grass Sprite's words, "Don't worry," are not just words of comfort.
Cheng Huaijin composed herself and put on an innocent smile: "Thank you, I think I was a little too hasty."
After thanking her, she hurriedly left, once again immersing her consciousness into the wrist mark.

...Has the grass sprite turned into an egg?
With a thought, Cheng Huaijin stopped summoning the grass spirit and instead summoned the pet egg.
A beautifully crafted pet egg appeared in her hand. Its pink base, green patterns, and shimmering gold spots... a complex aesthetic hinted that this was sure to be an extraordinary and unique pet.
Since it has turned into an egg, it must still be alive... right?
Cheng Huaijin breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did he have time to pay attention to Cheng Woyu's situation.
The atmosphere among the three was somewhat tense. Mr. Cheng sat in a chair, and Mrs. Cheng stood beside him, looking at their son across from them with concern.
Cheng Woyu said, "The treatment will cost a lot of money, otherwise it will never be able to evolve again in its lifetime."
Mr. Cheng took out a cigarette, then remembered that he couldn't smoke here. Holding the cigarette pack tightly, he asked, "How much?"
“We need to prepare at least 1 million now,” Cheng Woyu said in a deep voice.
"How many?!"
"1 million?"
Cheng's parents exclaimed in unison.
Cheng Huaijin was also startled. She shrank into the shadows and silently watched their conversation.
"Where am I supposed to get a million for you?" Mr. Cheng asked anxiously. "How come you need to spend a million to treat a pet you bought for 500,000 in just a few days? Did you buy a sick pet?"
Cheng Woyu's expression changed, and she suddenly pointed at Cheng Huaijin, who was hiding in the corner, and scolded, "Ask her! My pet was perfectly fine before, it only got like this after fighting with her grass spirit!"
"I didn't..." Cheng Huaijin tried to explain with a wronged expression, but was interrupted by Cheng Woyu.
He said, "Where's your grass spirit? Summon it and ask it why it hurt my Flame Wolf. Do you know how much money it cost and how much effort I put into buying it?"
Cheng Huaijin sneered inwardly, but outwardly said with a wronged expression, "Xiaoyu, what nonsense are you talking about? Even if Mom and Dad don't know anything about beast taming, you can't just falsely accuse me like this! The Flame Wolf is a fire type, and the Grass Sprite is a grass type. Even if they were fighting, it should be the Flame Wolf fighting the Grass Sprite... Your pet ate something it shouldn't have, how can you blame it on me? I only recently awakened, I don't know anything about it!"
After Cheng Huaijin finished speaking pitifully, she started to sob.
After this well-organized and pointed speech, Cheng Jianguo stared intently at Cheng Woyu. Although he wasn't a Beastmaster, he had a considerable understanding of pets and watched the annual Beastmaster Tournament. The fact that fire-type pets were super effective against grass-type pets was self-evident; an offensive pet like the Flame Wolf had virtually no chance of losing to a grass-type spirit.
Even if the Grass Sprite wins, it can only mean that... the Flame Wolf itself has a problem.
Thinking of this, Cheng's father's eyes sharpened: "Cheng Woyu, is the person who sold you the pet really from the pet breeding center?"
Cheng Woyu shouted, "Of course! It's illegal to resell pet eggs privately! Dad, keep your voice down!"
Cheng's parents looked very unwell.
Cheng Huaijin was also shocked by Cheng Woyu's audacious behavior. Was Cheng Woyu warning his parents not to interfere too much, lest their secret purchase of pet eggs be exposed?
Pets have always been subject to official management, and mid-level pets like the Flame Wolf can only be purchased from qualified pet breeding farms. However, judging from Cheng Woyu's reaction just now, this Flame Wolf was clearly not obtained through legitimate channels.
...This account is ruined. Cheng Huaijin thinks his parents should raise another child as soon as possible.
Cheng's father gritted his teeth and said, "I was just saying it casually."
Then there was a moment of silence.
"Lulu, Lulu." Harluya walked over, handed Cheng Woyu a bill, and urged him to pay.
Cheng Woyu handed the bill to his father, whose face grew increasingly grim. He said, "We can't afford that much money right now."
"Lulu." Harluya gestured for Cheng's parents to follow her.
