Chapter 481: Chapter 480 Gold Striped Yellow Raccoon
“Son.”
While Shao Zifeng was lost in his thoughts, his mother leaned in and whispered, “It must cost quite a bit to keep them, how about I give you my salary card later? Qiqi and I don’t spend much usually.”
“No need,” Shao Zifeng felt a bit moved as he replied, “I’m not short of money, keep it for yourself.”
“But…” His mother wanted to say more, but Shao Zifeng was firm, and eventually she gave up.
The family enjoyed a lively al together, after which Shao Zifeng helped his mother to lie down on a lounge chair in the courtyard, and he himself took a stool to sit beside her.
At this ti in the Yundu Region, spring was in full swing, and the afternoon sun was warm and pleasant.
Qiqi lay dozing next to his mother, and the little deer knelt at the corner of the east wall, resting among the flowers and plants. As for Lingling, that little guy was actually training the little beasts to sit in rows by the cage.
Shao Zifeng squinted and leaned against Yaya, stroking the fluffy head of the Chasing Moon Dog and enjoying the peaceful afternoon.
Shao Yuying, feeling slightly tipsy, turned her head to look at her son and pulled out a wooden box with a dal from her pocket.
The dal reflected the sunlight in small, sparkling rays that shone on Shao Zifeng’s face.
“Mom?”
Shao Yuying wiped the dal with her hand, her lips curved in a smile.
“Zifeng, you’ve grown up.”
“I originally thought that raising you was my life’s mission and didn’t expect much else from you, but you’ve turned out so much better than I imagined.”
“Those first few years after the incident were the hardest of my life. As they say, a widow’s doorstep is fraught with trouble. They all looked down on , and for that, I took everything on myself, always trying to cope without asking for help, but…”
“But in doing so, I neglected you. You don’t bla , do you?”
Shao Zifeng scratched his face awkwardly, “Mom, why bring this up all of a sudden? It’s been so many years.”
“Because I’ve been feeling very guilty these past years; I haven’t been a competent mother.” Saying this, Shao Yuying’s eyes beca moist, “Actually, I’ve been very worried about you, but you grew up in the blink of an eye, and I didn’t even know how to communicate with you.”
“Today, when I saw this dal, I wanted to scold you, but I didn’t even know how to start, or if I had the right to scold you.” She wiped away her tears, “So, do you bla ?”
“How could I?” Shao Zifeng held his mother’s hand, “I was the one who was too immature before.”
“Besides, this is a good thing. People say that with this dal, your grandchildren will have an advantage in school and work.”
Seeing Shao Zifeng’s grinning face, Shao Yuying couldn’t help but burst into laughter, “Then you should find a girlfriend and bring her ho for to et.”
“Can’t rush that.”
In amidst the laughter, the long-standing knot in the mother and son’s hearts unraveled, and Shao Yuying patted Shao Zifeng’s head, “My son’s grown up; he can shelter his mother from the storms of life now…”
That afternoon, Shao Zifeng didn’t go anywhere, and instead stayed at ho to spend quality ti with his mother.
After dinner that evening and so more conversation, he went back to his room to sleep.
Qiqi and Lingling returned to their pet space, but Yaya, who rarely got to co out, didn’t want to go back.
It lay quietly in the courtyard, gazing at the second floor until Shao Zifeng’s room lights went out, and then Yaya also closed its eyes.
The Dragon City county was quiet under the night sky, with streetlights turned off early to save on unnecessary expenses.
But the upside was the reduced light pollution, allowing the stars to be seen clearly in the sky.
In the darkness, a shadow leapt across the rooftops and lightly landed in the courtyard of Shao Zifeng’s house.
The shadow tilted its head, feeling the ground to be uneven.
Whoosh—
A gust of air passed and the shadow stiffened, slowly lifting its head.
In the dark, amber eyes shone with a faint light, and the shadow lood larger in its sight.
“ow—”
A piercing scream shattered the night’s calm.
Lights ca on in the small courtyard, and Shao Zifeng, in his pajamas, ran out.
“Yaya, what happened?”
“Grrrumble~”
Yaya shook its tail and stood up, revealing a patch of orange fur beneath it.
Shao Zifeng blinked.
“Is this…”
The pale blue light screen slowly unfolded.

[Description]: As an evolved form of the Yellow Racoon, the Gold Striped Yellow Racoon possesses an even more stubborn character when it cos to treasures, often tracking one for days and nights that it considers valuable, with a greatly increased chance of finding good stuff. However, this Gold Striped Yellow Racoon really needs to control its diet.
While Shao Zifeng was checking the information, the Gold Striped Yellow Racoon sprawled on the ground like a liquid stirred slightly.
Folds of flesh surged on its body, and it flopped over with a slap.
Its sneaky eyes darted around, and it imdiately thought of slipping away.
Yaya slightly moved her paws and stepped on the Gold Striped Yellow Racoon’s tail.
Its body suddenly froze in place, and the fur on its body stood up from tail to tip like it had been electrocuted, letting out a pitiful wail.
“oww~~——”
Frantic footsteps sounded, and Mother Shao ca out hurriedly draped in a coat, “What happened, what’s going on?”
Shao Zifeng pointed at what was beneath Yaya’s foot.
“Oh, Da Huang is back,” Mother Shao quickly ca over and pushed Yaya, “Yaya, this one is not a bad guy.”
“Grrr~”
Yaya nodded slightly and moved her feet a bit to the side.
“ow ow~”
The big furball tumbled and crawled to hide behind Mother Shao, sitting on the ground and clutching its tail with its paws, owing non-stop.
“That’s what you get for running around everywhere, now you’ve had it rough, let’s see if you run again next ti,” Mother Shao struggled to lift the round and plump fat cat, her heart ached, but she didn’t stop nagging, “I told you to eat less, how did you get even fatter, if you get any fatter I won’t be able to pick you up.”
The fat cat whimpered and grumbled, flipping over as if acting dramatically.
Plop.
Sothing tallic hit the ground with a crisp sound that echoed through the courtyard.
This sound imdiately alard the big orange cat, which twitched its little ears and quickly flipped and jumped out of Mother Shao’s arms, pouncing towards the orange-yellow object.
Just as it was about to pounce on it, a hand reached out and got there first.
Thump!
Gold Striped Yellow Racoon’s face smashed heavily onto the ground, and it struggled to lift its head to look at the man in front, its short, stubby paws heartbreakingly covering its chest.
Shao Zifeng weighed the ring in his hand, “Mom, did you buy this gold ring?”
“No, it’s not mine, I do so much work every day, how could I wear this,” Mother Shao looked helplessly at the Gold Striped Yellow Racoon, which couldn’t breathe because of the heartache, “It’s all the kid’s doing, it even picked up dead mice and dead fish last year, but this year it picked up jewelry a few tis.”
“Oh?” Shao Zifeng looked at the big orange cat with interest, “Here, catch.”
“ow~”
The extrely obese Gold Striped Yellow Racoon saw the parabola and surprisingly jumped up with agility, catching the ring steadily.
Shao Zifeng watched it with amusent, “What other treasures have you picked up, let have a look.”
The big orange cat held the ring with its two little paws, looking warily at Shao Zifeng.
Then it turned its back on him, its short, stubby tail wiggled back and forth, exposing a half-hidden anus.
What an eyesore.
