Zheng Tan was grounded, at least until he left South City and Nanhua City he couldn't freely wander around.
This was a unanimous decision by the Jiao family of four, which could be described as quite democratic.
Of course, for Zheng Tan, being grounded now didn't have much of an impact on him. He was fairly familiar with South City and Nanhua City and wasn't as curious as those newcomers who liked to sightsee around the area. This time, he had seen his parents, but unfortunately, the person he most wanted to see was always out of reach. Maybe it was fate that he couldn't meet himself from this time and space.
Actually, upon reflection, Zheng Tan could guess that even if he did meet the human version of himself at this time, it probably wouldn't have resulted in anything good. In those days, his past self was not very friendly towards cats, as for a long time Zheng Tan thought all cats were crazy, and no cat wanted to get close to Zheng Tan.
