Chapter 10 Hello, Boss Little Rabbit, I am You Tuantuan
"Hello, boss. I'm You Tuantuan. My brother said I'm amazing because I can eat three roasted chestnuts in one go, so my name is You Li!"
The cookie box was covered with a layer of crimson felt, and the little chestnut rabbit was like a glutinous rice dumpling, squatting obediently in the middle, its round eyes unblinking, and its body emitting a warm breath, obviously it had just been dug out of the quilt.
Lancelot's mother owns a toy company that releases different series of rabbit dolls every year, which are quite popular among orc cubs.
However, no matter how cute the doll is, it can't compare to the plush bunny in front of it.
It turns out to be his younger brother. No wonder they look so alike. He is simply a smaller version of Youan.
Lancelot poked his chubby cheek with his finger, narrowed his eyes and scolded him: "Little bastard..."
Who is it?
You Tuantuan tucked in his paws and tilted his head, quickly reacting—
Oh! I am a bunny, so I am a bunny!
You Tuantuan nodded: "Yeah, that little bastard did it."
Lancelot laughed at his amusement, then thought of his tail and quickly put on a serious face: "Tell me, why did you cut my tail hair?"
"Because... because it's so beautiful!" There seemed to be sparkling stars in You Tuantuan's eyes.
Lancelot: "Hmm?"
“So soft and bright!”
You Tuantuan waved her little paws in the air, gesturing non-stop and looking up at him in admiration. "I've never, ever... seen such a beautiful Maomao!"
Lancelot: "Hmm!"
Lancelot could hardly suppress the rapid rise of his mouth corners. He stroked the furry little rabbit's head with a pleasant expression and said generously: "Baby, you have really good taste. I forgive you!"
You Tuantuan was extremely grateful and bowed to him with his paws together: "Thank you, boss."
Youan dealt with the fox boss who came to accuse him with just three sentences, and gave his brother an amazing look.
Lancelot always kept his distance from the cubs, just like Enzo's sturdy little tiger cub nephew, who was loud and noisy, and loved to roll up into a tiger skin and lie on people's chests in his atavism period, and smuggle his paw pads into other people's mouths in a sneaky way.
Look at the little thing in front of me. It is stretching out its two short paws to pat its bulging rabbit cheeks on both sides, rubbing its soft and elastic cheeks to clean its fur. It can play quietly for most of the day without anyone coaxing it.
Lancelot couldn't help but wonder how Youan raised such a sensible and lovely child. Suddenly, a sharp voice came to his ears.
"go!"
Youan crumpled up the unused paper sticks and threw them away.
The furry little rabbit's legs were so short that they were invisible, and when it jumped up it looked like a mini van flying in the air, but that didn't stop him from accurately grabbing the small paper ball.
"Brother, throw it farther!"
The little rabbit happily put the paper ball back into Youan's palm and tilted his head back to make a request.
"I'm afraid you can't catch it."
"I can catch it! I'm better than a dog!"
"Okay, get ready—"
Seeing that Youan was having fun playing with his little rabbit dog, Lancelot raised his eyebrows and showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.
Ah... is it actually training as a dog?
After playing for a few rounds, You Tuantuan was tired. He stretched out his hind legs and lay on the table, wagging his short tail, looking very satisfied.
Even when Youan handed over the bitter-smelling potion bottle, there was no emotion on that furry face. He tilted his head back obediently and licked the rim of the bottle.
A bitter smell filled the air.
Lancelot watched quietly for a while, then suddenly asked, "What medicine is he drinking?"
"A gene stabilizer." You An did not hide anything and briefly explained You Tuantuan's situation.
Lancelot paused slightly as he stroked You Tuantuan's head, mouthing a question silently: "Is it serious?"
"It can be cured. I can just have surgery later."
Youan didn't think this was a flaw, it was just that he had been a little bunny for a longer time.
He waited for You Tuantuan to finish drinking the medicine and prepared to go back to his room to study, but You Tuantuan kept turning his head towards Lancelot's big tail, his dark eyes full of reluctance.
After a moment's hesitation, Youan stood straight in front of Lancelot.
Lancelot raised an eyebrow: "What's wrong?"
"The professor asked me to submit my research materials..." You An scratched his trouser seam with his fingers. "Can you play with Tuantuan for a while?"
Perhaps even Youan himself didn't realize that whenever there was a hint of inquiry in his tone, the ending tone would be like a delicate silver hook, gently scratching his heart.
Lancelot couldn't tell when he nodded.
By the time he reacted, the person had already entered the rabbit hole-like room, and there was a warm ball of fur in his palm, blinking its small eyes and looking into his eyes.
It's really interesting. In order to win a bet, he spent money, moved to a new dormitory, and now he has to help take care of the children.
You Tuantuan was completely oblivious to the fox boss's little mood. He tilted his head, raised his hind paws, and quickly scratched his ears, squinting his eyes and almost humming comfortably.
"Don't be like this, baby, even if you are a boy you should be more polite."
Lancelot remained expressionless as he stretched out his fingers to take over the rabbit's scratching job.
You Tuan Tuan gradually spread out the biscuit into a rabbit cake. Just when Lancelot thought he had fallen asleep and was about to put it back into the biscuit box, he suddenly remembered something and sat up.
He held one of Lancelot's fingers and said softly, "Boss Fox, I want to watch some cartoons for a while."
"Okay, I'll let you go."
"I'll do it, I'll do it!" You Tuantuan jumped happily on the spot twice and used his light computer to connect to the player in the living room.
The image quality of the super-large light screen is several times better than that of the light computer. You Tuantuan rubbed Lancelot's hand back and forth with his head to make him sit in the position with the best viewing angle, and then clicked on the first episode of The Wizard of the Bottle as if he were familiar with it.
Cheerful music started playing, and You Tuantuan squatted on the coffee table in front of Lancelot, turning his head from time to time to observe his reaction. Five minutes later, he skillfully switched to the next episode.
Lancelot was stunned.
This went on for several episodes in a row, and Lancelot finally realized that this little thing was taking advantage of the free trial of each episode and actually enjoying it.
You Tuantuan danced and sang the theme song, then clapped his front paws and applauded himself to end the song: "This cartoon is so good, so good... The theme song is so beautiful, so beautiful..."
Lancelot said nothing, but stared at him with a smile.
You Tuantuan asked tentatively, "Boss Fox, do you like the Bottle Genie?"
Lancelot always felt that the furry rabbit face had a hint of cunning, and said casually: "It's okay, I also liked watching it when I was a child."
"It's pretty good, right?" You Tuantuan stamped his foot regretfully, muttering meaningfully, "But you need to become a member to watch it later... I heard the ending song is pretty good too..."
"Oh, what a pity, what a pity."
Lancelot sighed, imitating his tone, and said straight to the point, "Tell me, what do you want to do?"
You Tuantuan suddenly felt a little embarrassed, lowering his head and rubbing his paws. "My brother gave me 100 White Orchid Coins, but buying a quarterly membership is not cost-effective. If Boss Fox also wants to watch it, can you, can you compete with me for a whole year..."
Despite being young, he is very smart and knows how to recruit partners.
Lancelot readily agreed and helped to activate the membership. The pure white background suddenly turned into a glittering gold.
"Wow! Wow! Wow!" You Tuantuan was so happy that he bounced like a spring. But when he saw that the balance in his account had not returned to zero, he gradually stopped shouting.
"Boss Fox, why did you pay my share of the money as well?" You Tuantuan put his little paw on the back of Lancelot's hand and pushed it, indicating that he should look at the light screen.
Lancelot shrugged nonchalantly. "Rich people don't buy things together. How about you buy it next year?"
“Okay!”
This way, it wouldn't be considered as taking advantage, You Tuantuan nodded quickly.
This time, the light screen finally played the plot five minutes later. You Tuantuan huddled in the biscuit box and watched intently, occasionally mumbling diss to the villain.
Lancelot twirled the empty potion tube between his fingers and turned his attention back to the communication screen in front of him.
"Gene stabilizer..."
The bewildered face of the sled dog orc filled the entire screen, curiosity flickering in his blue eyes. "This is the dosage for pups with the Y34 genetic disease. Why do you ask? Could someone have fathered a child out of wedlock?"
"Don't pull the sled during your atavism period. Look at you, your brain is frozen."
Lancelot stood up, opened the closet, grabbed some berry-flavored cheese sticks and stuffed them into the bunny's mouth.
This gentle and considerate gesture did not prevent him from turning his head and mocking his friend's stupidity with a vicious smile.
His friend on the screen was so angry that his mouth was crooked and his eyes were squinting, but Lancelot ignored him and moved to the window to regain his calm expression as if he was talking about business.
"I'm just asking for a friend's kid. Didn't your hospital just introduce a new treatment cabin? I'll bring someone over when you're free in a few days."
"Brother, not every doctor friend of a domineering CEO is an all-rounder."
My friend was still taking care of a group of one-month-old nephews sent by their brother and sister-in-law. He awkwardly held a puppy in his arms and shook it, saying without looking up, "Even if we came here, it's a wasted trip."
Lancelot's expression paused, and he walked a little further away from You Tuantuan before asking calmly, "What do you mean?"
My friend carefully coaxed the last cub to sleep in the crib, let out a long sigh, and then slowly answered.
"Let me put it this way. Genetic disease Y34 is most likely caused by maternal use during pregnancy... you know, those little pills pirates love to sell. The only solution right now is to take the stabilizer you have until you're ten years old. Only then can genetic surgery be performed."
My friend shrugged helplessly. "But stabilizers are quite expensive, over a thousand yuan a tube right now. Last year, when I was doing a free clinic at the welfare home, I saw sick children. They were lethargic, sluggish, and sickly... Sigh, to be honest, living like this is suffering."
Lancelot's throat choked and he subconsciously looked in the direction of You Tuantuan.
The fluffy little rabbit was holding two cheese sticks and shaking them rhythmically to the cartoon theme song. It was obvious that he was well taken care of by Youan.
The monthly expenses for medicine alone are not a small amount, and Youan's family obviously cannot afford it.
Lancelot was silent for a while, his eyes swept over You Tuantuan, as if he could see through the closed door and see the young man sitting at the table studying hard.
For a student who has just reached adulthood to have managed to make it this far...that's pretty impressive.
Lancelot narrowed his eyes, a little curious about where the other party got the money, but then he thought, it’s none of his business.
"Hey, Lance! What are you daydreaming about?"
The friend waved on the screen, unable to suppress his curiosity, and asked, "You haven't said which friend you're asking for. It can't be Quan Yi and Enzo. Could it be someone you just met? I feel like you're really concerned. Tell me now!"
Lancelot blinked and kept silent. Glancing at his sleepy nephews behind him, he raised the corners of his lips to reveal an ambiguous smile.
My friend's back stiffened and he suddenly felt something was wrong.
Sure enough, the next second——
Lancelot raised his chin calmly: "Woo."
The puppies who were about to fall asleep were startled, raised their heads, stretched their necks, and howled at the sky with their mouths erect:
"Ooo ...
It was continuous and full of energy, accompanied by the painful wails of my friend.
Lancelot hummed a tuneless tune and leisurely turned off the communication screen in front of him.
The news of the dormitory change circulated on the forum for a whole day, and soon someone with inside information spread the news that Lancelot wanted to support this straight-A student to compete for the top spot in the Rising Star Competition.
So when Youan went to the classroom again, he clearly felt more scrutiny and curious gazes on him.
The rabbit ears on his head trembled a little uncomfortably. Youan changed to a comfortable sitting position to listen to the class. When the class was over, he suddenly received a call from Ryan.
As an introducer of the dungeon, contact is usually made through the trading network and phone calls are rarely made.
Ryan said directly: "Hummingbird will be very satisfied with your last transformation of [Star Flame], and would like to invite you to take another order."
The Hummingbird Society has many gray industries in the underground city, but it also often cooperates with the government to crack down on roaming space pirates.
However, Youan didn't want to get too involved with a gang that dared to pick up military weapons.
"I need time to think about it."
"Why? Do you have other work lately?"
You An said "hmm" honestly, putting emphasis on the second word: "It's a big business."
"Okay, the reward here is very generous, you can consider it again."
Mr. Ryan smiled and said congratulations, changed the subject to talk about something else, and ended the call.
By this time, the crowd had almost left. Youan walked out of the classroom with his bag and met the Siamese cat maid who had been waiting for him for a long time.
She brought two lunch boxes, one large and one small, both steaming hot and fragrant. There was a bunny-shaped note on the box, with beautiful cursive writing on it:
"Come to the training ground after dinner, special training will begin today."
