The epitome of doing something to the extreme is still doing that thing in your dreams.
In his dream, Bo Ge diligently poked the felt, but the Big Cat felt became larger and more abstract, with the golden eyes turning into ridiculous slanted laughing eyes, as if mocking Gugu.
Angrily, Bo Ge poked harder, pricking his finger and letting blood seep into the felt. Bo Ge poked more and more angrily, suffocating himself, and forcibly waking himself up.
Upon waking up, the first thing Bo Ge did was to look at the felt. The black Big Cat felt, with its round golden leopard eyes, had at least an eighty percent resemblance. Bo Ge even poked out the appearance of Big Cat sticking out his tongue, with a small pink tongue, looking silly.
Seeing the finished product, Bo Ge finally breathed a sigh of relief. While having breakfast, he sewed the metal ring into it, making it a perfect ornament.
“Little Master, there’s big news today.” Little Du eagerly played the projection. “The Chief is here.”
Even robots had it tough for those few extra watts of electricity.
Watching videos while eating was the best.
Gugu stared intently at the projection. Big Cat appeared in a tailored suit, exuding the unique calm demeanor of a leopard in his every move.
The scepter floated beside Big Cat, maintaining a consistent distance, reflecting a metallic sheen from its golden spherical surface, displaying competence and wisdom.
“At 8:00 AM on the main star Abel, the Chief signed a batch of documents within the Black Pearl. This time, the team selection for exploring the planet NGC7331 broke the usual election rules and initiated a nationwide selection mode.” The commentator was enthusiastic. “The Second World is about to usher in a new round of updates. In addition to improving the star map, a new survival mode dungeon named ‘Starfire Plan’ will appear.”
According to reports, in the dungeon, the ecological environment of the planet NGC7331 will be simulated based on existing data. Players need to team up and cooperate to complete system-assigned tasks while ensuring the survival rate of the team.
Within thirty days, the top five teams to clear this dungeon will have the opportunity, following professional training selection, to truly set foot on the planet NGC7331. For more details, please stay tuned for subsequent reports.”
“Mimi!” Bo Ge stared at the man signing the document on the projection screen, his eyes full of excitement.
Big Cat really adopted his suggestion, a nationwide selection! Now Bo Ge also had a chance, he could compete, he could even step onto NGC7331, as long as he performed excellently. Perhaps he might even become a member of the exploration team and return to Earth!
In the projection, the dignified and handsome man lifted his head, his golden eyes shining like the sun.
Big Cat is so handsome!
Bo Ge’s smile hadn’t fully formed when he suddenly realized something.
Golden eyes?!
Has Big Cat’s mating season passed?
With an excited heart and trembling hands, Bo Ge quickly searched on his lightbrain. The disappearance of the symptom of red eyes indeed indicated that the beastman’s mating season had ended!
Is Big Cat going to come find Gugu soon?
Luckily, he stayed up late last night to finish poking the felt.
Little Du watched the teenager pacing back and forth in the room, tightly clutching the black panther felt ornament in his hand. Whenever there was a breeze outside, the teenager would quickly approach the window, trying to see what was happening below.
“It seems like the eyes aren’t round enough.” Bo Ge carefully examined the felt in his hand, took out a fine needle, and began to perfect it. After painstakingly poking for an hour, he looked left and right to ensure there were no issues before repeating the previous actions.
Waiting was always nerve-wracking. Little Du carefully checked for any signs of editing or modification in the projection and used magnification to examine the man’s eyes, confirming that they were in their natural golden state.
After rolling around on the bed for a dozen laps, Gugu, who had already stayed up late, fell asleep holding the panther felt ornament.
Little Du silently approached the bed and played a song of elven chanting. This song was said to soothe fragile hearts.
In the dream, soft and elegant music played, as if entering a luxurious medieval noble ball. Gugu tightly gripped the panther felt ornament in his hand, amidst the swirling skirts shimmering with splendid radiance, feeling lost.
Everywhere were graceful noble ladies, sipping champagne delicately, holding lace or feather fans, fanning themselves in front of their chests.
After a commotion, amidst the crowd stood Gugu, who saw a pair of men and women slowly descending from upstairs. The man was reserved and perfect, with a pair of noble and distant golden eyes; the woman wore a dress akin to moonlight, resembling a lost fairy in the forest, stunningly beautiful in her ethereal haze.
“The prince of the beast tribe should marry the elven princess; they are the perfect match made by the heavens and earth. This is the ideal marriage.” Various voices echoed around, as if deliberately whispering into the boy’s ears.
“Look how perfect they are together.” The noble lady s displayed standard smiles. “In terms of knowledge and lineage, both internally and externally, I have never seen a more fitting couple.”
What’s going on here?
Standing at the staircase, Gugu reflected on why he was having such a strange dream. Could it be because he had been telling too many fairy tales to his pet egg recently?
As the two stood on the stairs, resembling emotionless puppets, they silently locked eyes.
“Oh, my natural spirit, such a passionate gaze.” The nearby noblewomen exaggeratedly exclaimed.
Gugu looked up and saw the pointed ears of the noblewoman and her awkward avoidance of his gaze.
“Who are you, and why are you in my dream?” Gugu asked as he stopped in front of a woman in a blue dress and took two steps back, facing the noblewoman who stood high above.
“Don’t play dumb.” Gugu sniffed, threateningly, “There’s only you here with emotions in your eyes; everyone else is just a puppet.”
“Your lover is dancing with someone else, yet you’re concerned about whether others have emotions in their eyes.” The noblewoman looked down at the agile little creature below, her exceptionally beautiful face showing hints of amusement.
“The person I like is very clear about his identity, knows what he should and shouldn’t do.” Gugu raised his head defiantly.
“Is that so?” The noblewoman’s aquamarine eyes were like a delicate ink painting.
“As for you, invading my dreams is quite rude, you know?” Gugu pulled over a slender-legged chair from nearby, stood on it, and looked down at the noblewoman with an intimidating demeanor.
Watching the young man in front of her, brandishing his claws, the noblewoman’s eyes contained a hint of laughter. She slowly lowered the feather fan, revealing an exceptionally beautiful face with ambiguous gender, indicating her elven identity with her pointed ears.
Gugu looked at the young noblewoman’s face and felt as if he had seen her somewhere before, but he couldn’t remember who she was.
“Even if you’re beautiful, I won’t forgive you.” Gugu snorted. “Why did you create such a dream for me?”
“Dreams come from the heart.” The noblewoman folded the fan, gently tapping the boy’s chest with the feather tip. “It seems that you’re not so sure about this romance after all.”
“Nonsense, I…” Before Gugu could finish speaking, the noblewoman pushed the tip of the fan against the boy’s body, causing the slender-legged chair to lose balance. Gugu leaned backward, experiencing a sense of falling and weightlessness, which abruptly woke him up, his body covered in a layer of cold sweat.
“Little Master!” Little Du was extremely anxious beside him. “You were talking in your sleep just now, and no matter how I called, I couldn’t wake you up!”
“What nonsense was I talking in my sleep?” Bo Ge got up, wiped the sweat off his forehead, and felt something in his hand. Opening it, he saw Big Cat’s felt.
Without a word, Little Du played the video. Gugu saw himself lying on the bed, looking fierce and vicious, speaking harshly:
“What, you don’t know your own status? You were bought by me for 50 credits, you’re my big cat, whether alive or dead!”
He had slept for quite a long time, and it was already dark outside.
Bo Ge stared at the felt in his hand for a moment, then put the big cat felt on the desk and covered it with something.
“Grandpa was right, beastmen are all big boors. During mating season, he called me cute, but when he’s not in heat, I’m nothing.”
“Maybe he’s busy, delayed by something?” Little Du didn’t want the teenager to be so upset.
“I reminded him before.” Gugu’s nose felt stuffy, he sniffed and pursed his lips, “If he doesn’t come to me after mating season, I’ll take it as our breakup.”
“Perhaps…” Little Du hesitated, trying to find other reasons.
“There’s no other possibility.” Gugu finally couldn’t control himself, his eyes red, a tear fell. “His mating season is over, he’s come to his senses and doesn’t want me anymore.”
“No, he waited so long to match with you…”
“He wants to abolish the matching system.” Bo Ge looked up, trying hard to hold back his tears, “During mating season, everything he said and did was to be with me, even if it went against his reason. Now he’s come back to his senses and regained his intelligence, I’m single again.”
Seeing tears slide down the young man’s cheeks, Little Du regretted not sending a message to warn that cursed star.
After wiping away the tears, Bo Ge washed his face and tried to comfort himself. When he turned his head and saw the toothbrush and toothpaste he bought for Big Cat in the bathroom, and the high wall he had erected in his mind, declaring, “I am a human, humans are noble, I can have countless cats,” it instantly collapsed.
Missing the cat, Little Du stood outside the bathroom, listening to Gugu crying while showering.
The next day, Bo Ge silently reset the game pod to factory settings, removing Big Cat’s voice, and then lay down in the pod.
Entering the Virtual World, Bo Ge tried hard as usual, rushing to the milk bar to earn star coins, holding back tears with his cute and fluffy self. A red fox queued up and approached, but before it could say anything, the boy’s eyes turned red, he bit his lip, and tears welled up.
“What’s wrong, Little Gugu?” Amber was startled. Even when attacked by a hyena before, she hadn’t seen the boy like this.
“Amber Sister, I… got dumped.” As soon as Bo Ge finished speaking, he couldn’t help but burst into tears.
The fluffy creatures in the room were stunned, forgetting about the queue and rushing up to comfort the boy who cried like a dog.
“I thought he liked me, but he didn’t. I waited for him all day, and he didn’t even say ‘goodbye’ to me.”
Bo Ge looked up and cried, tears flowing like beans. Amber felt helpless and didn’t know how to comfort the human who had suffered a heartbreak. In a panic, she could only put her favorite big tail in Bo Ge’s arms, letting the boy cry while holding it.
Many fluffy creatures captured this scene and posted it on the StarNet, showing the cute moment when humans cry and feel wronged in love. In less than an hour, the number of views surpassed one million, and the comments were varied.
[“How can anyone bear to hurt such a cute creature!”]
[“Although humans cry sadly, why do I feel like laughing when I see it?”]
[“Humans, don’t cry. I have many handsome young men and beautiful young women here, from all races, let me introduce them to you for free!”]
[“Which milk bar is this? I want to comfort the injured humans!”]
At the Lielan House, the weary old father, who had just comforted his youngest son, sat down at the dining table and found that his wife and a group of grandchildren were not eating, staring motionless at a projection.
Even his fifth grandson had grown a tail, swaying it back and forth.
“What’s wrong?” Lie Lanyang asked. The family was usually strict about not watching projections during mealtime.
“Look at this, Yang.” His wife, the virtuous one, showed the projection to Lie Lanyang.
“A precious human breakup video.”
