Early in the morning on the 28th, Wen Xingyao opened the door of the hut and found that there were many players standing outside his yard.
There was a dense crowd of people, head to head, surrounding his yard so tightly that no one could get in or out.
Such a "grand occasion" made Wen Xingyao couldn't help but recall the day more than a month ago, when a large group of players gathered outside his yard to watch the large patch of mushrooms growing in his yard.
With this in mind, he quickly glanced at the mushroom stump sitting in the corner.
Today, the number of people is just as great, and everyone’s face is full of anticipation, as if they are waiting for something to happen.
He found Mo Song in the crowd and asked him, "What happened? Why are you gathered at my door again?"
This word "again" can be said to be very spiritual. The players who were fortunate enough to participate in the first viewing laughed in good faith, and then started to explain to Wen Xingyao.
"Master Yaoxing, how could you have forgotten such an important day today? Today is the 28th. Think about what happened 15 days ago!"
"What are you thinking about? Just say no. Boss, do you remember the blind box draw that day? The pet egg you opened should be able to hatch today, right? Um... hey, can you let us watch the hatching process?"
"Yes, yes, boss Qiuqiu, I really want to know what kind of pet can be obtained from the pet egg!"
"Hey, I was lucky enough to get a pet egg in the event, so I came here to learn some experience and take advantage of the boss's luck."
Before Mo Song could figure out what to say, the players told him their purpose clearly. In the end, he could only shrug helplessly at Wen Xingyao, indicating that this was what the players meant.
After listening to the players' opinions, Wen Xingyao understood what they were talking about. He had actually been secretly calculating the time for the pet egg to hatch, and knowing that it would be today, he was not too nervous at first, but when he thought about the hatching of the pet egg being witnessed by so many people, he suddenly became nervous.
How can I describe this feeling? Parents always hope that their children can be loved and welcomed by everyone, and this depends on whether the child is cute, has a likable personality, has natural appeal, or has strong talents.
If the onlookers are indifferent to the newly hatched cub, not only will the cub's existence become awkward, but he, as a parent, will also feel bad.
Wen Xingyao suddenly felt a sense of responsibility as an old father.
Even so, he still agreed to the players' request and agreed to let the pet eggs hatch in the yard. Players who wanted to watch could watch from outside the yard, but they could forget about watching from a close distance because there were too many people and it would be hard to squeeze in.
"Li Bai, here!" Wen Xingyao saw Bai Li walking towards his house out of the corner of his eye. He waved to Bai Li, opened the gate and invited him in.
Other players: “…” Your double standards are so obvious, who would still believe that you are just ordinary friends?
According to the game design, the pet egg will hatch successfully on the fifteenth day after it is obtained. However, if the pet egg is always placed in the backpack, the cub inside will not come out by itself. The owner needs to take the egg out of the backpack and put it outside to hatch normally.
After obtaining Wen Xingyao's consent, Mo Song set up a live broadcast camera on the side and temporarily changed the name of his live broadcast room from "A Day in "Your Ran Tian Ju"" to "The Record of the First Pet Egg Hatching in "Your Ran Tian Ju"". When netizens saw the title, they rushed in without thinking.
The comments were full of speculations about the breed of the cub that was about to hatch. Some people began to throw gifts crazily, saying that it was a hatching gift for the cub, reminding Mo Song to give their gifts to the cub's biological father, the demon star boss, after the live broadcast.
This weird behavior made Mo Song laugh and cry, but he finally agreed.
Everything was ready. Wen Xingyao and Bai Li came together to the vine rack he had built, and the players outside the yard moved with them.
The pet egg with circles of golden patterns on the shell was taken out of the backpack, along with a white soft cushion. When Wen Xingyao placed the pet egg with the pointed end facing up on the cushion and fixed it, everyone saw the quiet pet egg swaying from side to side a few times.
"It's moving! It's moving!" Someone grabbed his companion's arm tightly and shouted excitedly.
"Yeah, I saw it. Why are you so excited? Don't you see that the two fathers are very calm?" The companion felt pain, pulled his hand away angrily, and said calmly.
However, he didn't know that what he thought was spoken in a very low voice was heard clearly by the two parties involved.
Wen Xingyao's heart skipped a beat, as if his secret thoughts had been revealed, and the tips of his ears hidden in his hair began to heat up. He quickly glanced at Bai Li, only to find that the other party was laughing with interest.
Wen Xingyao: “?” Did he miss something? Why was Bai Li laughing?
His stunned expression was too obvious, and Bai Li soon noticed it. He suppressed his laughter and explained the reason for his laughter in a lower voice: "I thought about it, and it seems that what they said is not wrong. I designed this game, and the pet egg can be considered as my creation. You took it out of the gift bag. One is the creator, and the other is the raiser. Aren't we two fathers?"
"Haha, so I'm the father of all the pets in the whole game!" Bai Li wanted to add fuel to the fire, but he didn't know that his friend who was not far away from him had already started beating disorderly.
"Ahem." In the end, Wen Xingyao could only use dry coughing to resolve the embarrassment, "Let's wait for it to hatch by itself."
Not only the two of them, but also the players present and the audience in the live broadcast room all held their breath and waited for the crucial moment when the cub broke out of the shell.
The pet egg was shaking louder and louder, and the frequency of its shaking was getting faster and faster. After about five minutes, Wen Xingyao heard the sound of the eggshell breaking. He followed the sound and successfully found a very thin crack at the top of the eggshell.
As time went by, the crack became bigger and bigger. Something was pushing and pushing from the inside, creating a small bulge in the eggshell that had already broken into a web-like shape. Then, the eggshell, which was held together by a thin film inside, completely shattered, and a furry little claw poked out from inside.
The light orange fur still had traces of moisture, and the pink paw pads were so tender that one could not wait to take a bite. Above the paw pads was a retracted claw, which was opening and closing at this moment, as if it was getting familiar with the environment that was completely different from the eggshell.
The cub in the eggshell had not yet revealed its complete appearance, but Wen Xingyao had a bad feeling in his heart. No way... He always felt that the cub's appearance would be completely different from what he imagined.
Soon, the ominous premonition came true. A furry kitten crawled out of the eggshell, scratched at the edge of the broken eggshell, and chewed the eggshell from time to time, making a "crunching" sound and making a milky cat meow.
"Oh my." Bai Li sighed softly, and when he looked at Wen Xingyao his eyes became a smile.
"Oh my!" The players watching outside the yard also made the same exclamation, but their thoughts were completely different from Bai Li's. They looked at Wen Xingyao with sympathy.
Some viewers in the live broadcast even felt sorry for the first pet egg.
"I originally thought that this first pet egg would give out a super rare pet, such as one from the myths of the ancient blue planet, or at least some ferocious beasts, but in the end it turned out to be a little kitten. This is too disappointing..."
"Sure enough, the boss won't be lucky forever. Even if he got lucky and got a pet egg, what's the use? Isn't it just a weak pet? A cat... I really can't think of what role it can play in the game."
"What did the cat do wrong? Cats are cute, okay? Why do you have such strong malice towards a weak, pitiful and helpless little cat? Isn't it better to let it grow up happily by the boss' side?"
"What the sister said before is right! I really don't believe that the kitten is useless. Go ahead, big brother, raise it well and let it amaze everyone in the future!"
"Well, after all, I'm still a little disappointed. Let's just wish the boss the best for his next pet egg!"
“…”
There were all kinds of comments in the comments, and many viewers expressed their disappointment. Only a few comments comforted Wen Xingyao and encouraged him.
However, Wen Xingyao no longer cared about what the people around him thought. He looked at the kitten who had finished eating the eggshell and was slowly moving to his side. Then he recalled the look Bai Li had given him just now. He felt a surge of heat all over his body, and couldn't understand why his childhood image in real life would appear in the game.
...It cannot be said to be exactly the same as "Supreme", at least there is no flame on the tip of the tail, but it is very similar, so similar that he had a strange illusion that he really had a cub that was related to him by blood.
These are the same genes that only father and son have!
Wen Xingyao looked at Bai Li, and Bai Li smiled and shook his head at him. This was telling him that this matter had nothing to do with him, and what kind of pet appeared in the pet egg was not the result of some secret manipulation.
This is fate.
Wen Xingyao calmly accepted "fate's arrangement" and held the little kitten in his palm in an awkward manner. When the kitten twitched its nose to express its desire to get closer, he hesitated for a few seconds, slowly stretched his head over, and gently touched the kitten's with the tip of his nose.
Bai Li, who watched the whole process from the closest distance, said: Wen Xingyao will definitely be a good "father" in the future.
The camera in the live broadcast room recorded this real scene. I don’t know since when, the voices of pity in the barrage disappeared, and were replaced by another emotion.
"Hmm...how should I put it? Why do I feel my nose is sore and I feel inexplicably moved!"
"Well, maybe this is the legendary 'tough guy with a soft heart', a strong man and a little kitten, maybe they will create a different kind of spark!"
"Woo woo, I suddenly feel that there is nothing wrong with a cute little kitten. Boss Yaoxing is so rich, he just needs a little wife to accompany him."
"I'm dying of laughter. Where did this little wife come from? Didn't you hear that Monster Star Boss was already introducing the pet's identity? It's a male... Holy shit! It's actually a lion??!!"
"Whose lion looked like this when it was young!"
The audience in the live broadcast room couldn't hold it anymore.
