Within moments, the little creature had gnawed away at one half of the eggshell, then darted up to the bookshelf, snatched away the other half, and continued nibbling. It wasn't until it had finished off the entire eggshell that it cuddled its belly and fell into a deep and contented sleep.
Ye Wutian continued his cultivation until evening, and only then did he stop.
Perhaps sensing the movement on the bed, the little creature that was fast asleep immediately woke up, on high alert. Its round, little eyes darted around, as if scouting for danger.
Ye Wutian climbed out of bed, peered underneath it, and the little creature scurried back into the corner, trembling.
Ye Wutian didn't bother with it anymore and left the room directly.
Glancing at the time, it was already past five in the evening; Dong Chengyao was likely to get off work soon.
He drove to the entrance of Tangxing Company. Just as he took out his phone to call Dong Chengyao, he saw her walking out the door.
