~5 min read 840 words

Lin Chen rested in Xia Nuan's arms for a moment, his consciousness gradually becoming clear, he supported Xia Nuan's shoulder and stood up,

looking at the lord zombie, steel beast, and thunderbird lying on the ground,

and the elite zombies, exploders, and shadow cats solved by the guards, breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally... solved." The two supported each other,

slowly walking back to the medical room, the doctor hurriedly coming over to check Lin Chen's wounds, his brows furrowing even tighter: "The wounds have split open again, must rest in bed well, can't move anymore."

Xia Nuan nodded, helping Lin Chen adjust his posture, letting him lean on the hospital bed.

She sat by the bed, looking out the window, suddenly remembering something, her eyes becoming dim: "By the way, that hamster raised in the Firmament Villa before,

don't know if it's dead or not." Lin Chen was stunned for a moment, also just remembering that hamster—it was brought back from an abandoned pet store when they first moved into the villa,

furry, very cute, later because of successive battles, never had time to take care of it.

"System,

is that hamster dead or not?

" Lin Chen asked the system, still holding a glimmer of hope. 【Detected that the hamster in the Firmament Villa has died.】 The system's answer was very direct. "How did it die? Was it hurt by a mutated creature?" Xia Nuan hurriedly asked, her voice carrying a tremor. 【The hamster had no external injuries, the cause of death was long-term lack of feeding, it was starved to death.】

Hearing the words "starved to death," Xia Nuan's tears fell instantly, she covered her face,

her shoulders trembling slightly: "It's all my fault... if I had remembered to feed it at that time, it wouldn't have died.

" Lin Chen looked at her sad appearance, his heart also feeling uncomfortable, reaching out to pat her back: "It's not your fault, we were both too busy and didn't take care of it."

【Host and Xia Nuan's emotional fluctuations are too large, affecting wound recovery.】 The system's voice carried a trace of impatience, 【A compensation reward has been issued for the host—an orange cat, with a set of cat supplies, already placed in the living room of the Firmament Villa.】

Xia Nuan heard there was a new cat, her crying gradually stopped, looking up at Lin Chen: "Is there really an orange cat?" Lin Chen confirmed to the system: "Has the reward been issued?" 【Already issued, the orange cat is in good health.】

The two couldn't care about resting, and under the doctor's repeated instructions, still supported each other back to the Firmament Villa.

Just pushed open the door, they saw an orange cat lying on the sofa in the living room, round and chubby, holding a ball of yarn playing, beside it placed a litter box,

a cat food bowl, and several bags of cat food. Xia Nuan walked over, gently picking up the orange cat, the orange cat obediently rubbing against her hand, a smile finally appearing on her face.

"System, will this orange cat also be like the previous hamster, easy to starve to death?

" Lin Chen asked worriedly, he didn't want to see Xia Nuan sad because of a pet again.

【A special potion has been injected for the orange cat, this potion can make the orange cat never freeze to death, never starve to death, no need for frequent care.】

The system finished answering. Xia Nuan held the orange cat, looking down at its eyes, saying softly: "I will take good care of you in the future, won't let you be wronged again."

The orange cat seemed to understand, making a "meow-meow" sound, rubbing its head against Xia Nuan's chin.

Lin Chen looked at the scene in front of him, his heart also warming up, the fatigue of the previous battle and the pain of the wounds seeming to have reduced quite a bit. He walked to the sofa and sat down,

watching Xia Nuan and the orange cat playing, suddenly feeling that in this apocalypse, being able to have such a moment of peace is already very precious.

"Let's give it a name?" Xia Nuan looked up at Lin Chen, her eyes full of expectation.

Lin Chen thought for a while, smiling and saying: "How about 'Tuan Tuan'? It's so round, like a little dumpling." Xia Nuan nodded: "Okay, let's call it Tuan Tuan! Tuan Tuan, this is your home from now on." Tuan Tuan "meowed," as if responding.

The two played with Tuan Tuan for a while, Xia Nuan put it in the cat nest, and poured some cat food for it, watching it eat big mouthfuls, before walking to Lin Chen's side with peace of mind: "Now with Tuan Tuan accompanying us, we won't be so lonely in the future." Lin Chen held her hand and nodded: "Yes, we will take care of Tuan Tuan together in the future, and also guard this base together." ===== CHAPTER 157 =====
