Bringing the leopard back from the Lie residence to the villa, the big cat was extremely unsettled along the way. It would be startled by flying vehicles suddenly passing overhead, howling at their backs, then jumping into Gugu’s arms, clutching Bo Ge’s neck tightly with two paws, whimpering incessantly.
Bo Ge exerted all his strength to hold the big cat, one step at a time. After returning to the villa, he leaned against the door frame and panted for a long time.
The big cat curiously sniffed here and there, seemingly catching a whiff of its own scent left behind previously. It dashed upstairs and accurately pawed out the small black leopard felt toy that Gugu had stabbed.
At the moment it saw the felt toy, the big cat’s pupils dilated, one paw covering its heart, carefully picked up the felt toy, walked to Gugu, who was slumped in the smart chair, and placed the felt toy in Gugu’s arm, licking it, its eyes filled with excitement, and it made a fluctuating call.
“Come.” Gugu gestured weakly towards the golden ball, pointing towards the big cat, “Translate for me.”
“Open the leopard language translator.” The scepter hovered near the big cat’s head, accompanying its head movements, left and right.
“Giao.”
“I’m sorry to have put you through this, living in such a cold and unwelcoming place, raising a child alone. I will definitely provide a warm nest for you and our child. I will be a good husband and father.”
“Hmm?” Gugu showed a puzzled expression.
“giaogiaogiaogiao.”
“Make a nest!”
The black leopard turned around and agilely bounced upstairs, while Gugu looked at the small golden ball with confusion.
“Why do I feel like there’s something wrong with this leopard language translator of yours?”
“There might be a slight error,” the scepter explained apologetically, “The master’s speech isn’t very clear during estrus.”
Slight error? More like a billion points of error!
“How long is he going to be like this?” Gugu could already hear the sound of fabric tearing upstairs, genuinely worried for the villa.
“Based on the last time, when the master lost control during estrus about eighteen years ago, it might last at least two days,” the scepter said with concern, “And I have both bad news and good news.”
“What?” Bo Ge had a foreboding feeling.
“The bad news is, according to regulations, the master can’t take consecutive breaks in a short period, so…” The scepter scanned Gugu cautiously for a second, “The master still has to work tomorrow.”
Gugu slumped weakly into the smart chair. The situation at the villa wasn’t even the main concern now; it was time to worry about the Alliance.
“And the good news?”
“The good news is, the master seems to have sensed that he might lose control, so he’s been working overtime these days and has already taken care of important matters. As long as there are no unforeseen events, he should be able to get through this,” the scepter floated in front of Gugu, “I’ve rescheduled many meetings in hopes that you can help the master as soon as possible to get out of this uncontrollable state.”
“What should I do?” Bo Ge perked up.
“Here’s a document sent by the master’s medical team, which can help you understand the master’s estrus situation and scientifically soothe him,” the scepter pulled up a document and projected it in front of Bo Ge.
“‘Guide to Beastman Estrus – Partner’s Guide’?” Gugu scratched his head, opening the document and carefully reading.
“The estrus of beastmen can be divided into complete and incomplete states. Generally, beastmen’s estrus periods are incomplete, allowing for some degree of rationality. A very small number of beastmen may experience complete estrus, during which they lose self-control.
When a beastman is in complete estrus, their personality changes dramatically, acting solely on instinct without using their brain. They become irritable, restless, and emit abnormal sounds.
Male leopards are prone to passive estrus, with significant atavism during complete estrus. For example, there may be behaviors such as redefining territory (leaving scent marks everywhere), adopting strange postures (raising their tail high and maintaining a standing position, or rolling around on the ground), being extremely noisy (constantly calling out to find a mate), and sudden increase in aggression. If they cannot find a mate, they are highly likely to leave home in search of true love.
During this time, the role of the partner is crucial.
Firstly, the partner needs to be patient and caring towards the beastman in complete estrus, to avoid the beastman developing aversion to estrus.
Some beastmen in complete estrus may experience a lack of security and be easily startled.
In such cases, the partner needs to comfort the beastman in a timely manner, with actions such as hugging, kissing, chatting, stroking, to calm the beastman’s emotions and desires.
Secondly, because the aggression of a beastman in complete estrus is enhanced, the partner needs to pay attention to their own safety and control the beastman to prevent them from harming others.
Lastly, if a beastman does not receive sufficient sexual comfort during complete estrus, they are highly likely to engage in self-stimulation, such as rubbing their abdomen against a towel or soft object with the partner’s scent. In such cases, the partner needs to remain calm and provide nutrition to the beastman, treating such events with a normal attitude.”
Gugu closed the document, trying to calm his inner turmoil.
In summary, even if the leopard does something wrong, no scolding or hitting, warmth must be provided. Take good care of the leopard, prevent it from hurting others, and prepare towels with the partner’s scent.
Being a caregiver… no, a partner, was really not easy.
“Little master, would you like to order an air purifier?” the scepter asked thoughtfully.
“Why do we need that?” Gugu didn’t understand.
“Please read this,” the scepter pointed to the part “leaving scent marks everywhere.”
Gugu suddenly remembered the smell he once smelled when the male cat was in estrus, the smell of spraying everywhere.
It was, indeed, pungent.
It was so strong that it made people cover their noses and couldn’t sleep soundly at night.
“Buy it!” Gugu clutched his heart, feeling sorry for his credit points, “Is there one that costs only a few tens of credit points?”
“Why don’t you use the master’s credit points to buy it?” the scepter leaned close to Gugu, emitting an evil tempting voice, “As long as you hold the leopard’s head and swipe your face, it’s done.”
“Will he check the bill after he wakes up?” Gugu was a little worried, “What if he wants to split the bill with me?”
“Then you can simply resell the purchased items. They are ninety percent new and can be sold for at least eighty percent of the original price. Give half to the master, and the remaining thirty percent will be yours, little master!”
To clarify the numbers, the scepter called up a calculator to calculate for Gugu.
“For example, if the little master buys something worth a thousand credit points, after the master wakes up, you can sell it for eight hundred credit points, give five hundred to the master, and the remaining three hundred will be yours!
Similarly, if the little master buys something worth ten thousand credit points, you can pocket three thousand credit points. So, the more you buy, the more expensive it is, the more you’ll earn in the end!”
Gugu stared at the calculator panel in front of him, his eyes slowly lighting up with the gleam of money.
If he spent ten million, would he not earn three million! Wealth was within reach!
What provides the greatest sense of security in the world?
In the last life, it was pink tickets; in this life, it was credit points!
“Okay!” Gugu immediately decided. But before he could get excited for two seconds, he suddenly heard a loud noise from upstairs.
“Howl howl howl giao!” The leopard’s roar echoed throughout the entire villa, followed by Gugu seeing a black shadow instantly rushing down the stairs, pouncing towards him.
It was really… as fast as lightning.
Bo Ge was tackled to the ground by the black leopard, who wrapped his arms around Gugu’s neck, looking utterly terrified. He kept squirming into Gugu’s embrace, and the enormous leopard head nudged Gugu’s clothes until the buttons almost popped open.
The black leopard weighed nearly two hundred pounds, crushing Gugu miserably. He almost vomited the food he had at the banquet. Thinking of the contents of the document, Bo Ge took a deep breath, revealing a wry smile.
“Good… boy…” Bo Ge’s voice trembled under the immense pressure, raising his hand to stroke the cat’s head, “Get off me first.”
“Mm~” The big cat made a coquettish sound, its tail wagging wildly, unwilling to get off Gugu. It kept squirming into Gugu’s embrace, even trying to lick him.
Three minutes later, Bo Ge struggled to carry the heavy cat upstairs, his clothes tattered. Every step was extremely difficult and burdensome.
The big cat’s paws rested on Bo Ge’s shoulders, happily licking Gugu’s back. With each lick, a layer of fabric came off. After two or three licks, Gugu’s back felt cold.
To prevent the cat from licking off a layer of his skin, Bo Ge paused halfway up the stairs, panting heavily, and slapped the cat’s backside. The cat startled, its tail held high, shaking with joy.
The scepter hovered in the air, silently capturing this scene and creating a gif, which was sent thoughtfully to Bo Ge.
“If he accuses me of spending credit points recklessly when he wakes up, I’ll show him this.” Bo Ge gasped for breath, feeling utterly helpless, “I’m really struggling.”
Upon reaching the second floor, Gugu had a misconception.
“Is this… where I live?”
Gugu put down the big cat and turned to look aside. “I remember this used to be a bedroom. Why is there only a wall left now?”
“And this!” Bo Ge’s eyes widened as he arrived at the former second-floor dining room. “Where are the table and smart chairs? Did you eat them?”
All the walls on the second floor had been knocked down, and all the clutter was unrecognizable, replaced by a huge metal framework of a nest.
There was still smoke coming from one area. Upon closer inspection, Bo Ge saw two smart chairs that had been bent alive. The loud noise just now was likely caused by the big cat breaking the smart chairs, resulting in a small explosion.
Bo Ge lowered his head, unable to stop the big cat from rubbing against his legs. The culprit’s whiskers were slightly curled, indicating the truth of the matter.
“Little master, calm down!” The scepter tried to reassure Bo Ge, “You must maintain patience and kindness!”
Gugu took a deep breath. When the big cat heard movement, it raised its head proudly and looked at Bo Ge, then jumped onto the metal framework, looking proud.
Wasn’t the leopard amazing?
Seeing Gugu “focused” on the unfinished nest, the big cat brushed off the fright it had just received and became even more active, jumping up and down to build the structure it had set in its mind.
“Why?” Bo Ge sat aside, one hand pressing his forehead, looking pained. “He’s a male leopard, why is he building a nest?”
“This… maybe it’s related to the human genes of the master’s other half,” the scepter speculated, “Do human males have a habit of nesting before starting a family?”
Human males… Gugu frowned, thinking deeply. Shouldn’t they buy a house? At worst… dig a cave? How did it become nest-building?
Could it be… Bo Ge suddenly had a flash of insight, thinking of his own name.
Bo Ge, Ge, Gugu?
Could it be… a pigeon’s nest?
After three seconds of pupil trembling, Bo Ge suddenly remembered that eighteen years ago, the big cat hadn’t even met him, yet it still built a nest during estrus, even using precious paper documents.
It wasn’t because of his name. Gugu couldn’t figure out what kind of power made a male leopard so keen on nesting.
A century-old problem.
“Little master, the air purifier is ready.” The scepter flew over, displaying the goods to Bo Ge. “Ninety-nine point nine percent satisfaction rate, can effectively sterilize and purify the air, and most importantly, the price…”
Gugu stared at the six-figure price tag, eyes wide. Just one order would earn him tens of thousands of credit points. What kind of heavenly opportunity was this!
“Isn’t it a bit too expensive?” Bo Ge felt a little guilty.
“Little master, let me secretly show you the master’s savings.” The scepter cautiously led Bo Ge aside and brought up a page.
Bo Ge stared at the long string of numbers at the bottom, counting silently in his heart. After a while, he almost forgot how to breathe.
“Buy!” Gugu’s eyes were blinded by the huge wealth. The little bit of conscience he had about saving money for the big cat was nowhere to be found.
“It’s face recognition.” The scepter opened the payment scan.
“Mimi!” Gugu called out enthusiastically to the busy big cat. When the leopard saw the human calling, it ran over joyfully, rubbing against Gugu, then quickly jumped into the nest after the little golden ball said “payment successful.”
The operation was quite skilled.
