Yesterday, Chen Yang had already cleared out quite a bit of dirt.
But to his surprise, overnight, this little guy dug out a whole new mound of dirt.
Seeing so much new dirt, Chen Yang was really at his wit's end.
This guy doesn't really intend to dig out the entire yard, does it?
"Little guy, come out."
Chen Yang helplessly called out at the entrance of the hole.
But inside the hole, there was no response.
"Could it be the hole is too deep to hear?" Chen Yang bent down and called again, but still, there was no movement inside the hole.
Seeing the little guy not coming out for so long, Chen Yang decided to throw an Elixir right into the hole.
Maybe it would come out to eat when it smelled it.
But he hadn't expected.
Just when he was holding the Elixir close to the entrance, he heard something running inside the hole.
Then, within two to three seconds, this little guy poked its little head out of the hole.
Its eyes blinked, asking for something to eat.
Though this guy is a Golden Rat Wolf, with a bit of a cunning look,
its whole body is covered in golden fur, paired with its adorable actions, making it somewhat cute.
"You little guy, only coming out for food, huh?"
Chen Yang deliberately put the Elixir back, wanting to tease it a bit.
This little guy really couldn't handle teasing, seeing Chen Yang pull back the Elixir, it immediately became anxious.
Muttering strange sounds, it was very agitated.
Afraid Chen Yang might really not give it to eat.
Chen Yang was amused by this little guy.
"Want to eat? Then will you come when I call next time?" Chen Yang laughed and asked.
The Golden Rat Wolf is a spirit beast, so naturally, it could understand what Chen Yang was saying.
Yeah, yeah.
It chirped away, nodding eagerly, looking very sincere.
"Alright, so it's settled, you'll get an Elixir when you respond to the call, otherwise, there's nothing for you." Chen Yang said.
Chirp…
The little guy quickly agreed with what Chen Yang said.
Initially, Chen Yang wanted to continue teasing it, but seeing it so anxious, unable to take a joke,
he didn't drag it out further and threw the Elixir to it.
It grabbed the Elixir and started devouring it, wolfing it down.
Perhaps, experiencing the benefits of the Elixir yesterday left it craving for more.
"I can't just keep calling you little guy, better give you a name." Seeing the golden little creature wolf it down, Chen Yang suddenly realized it didn't have a name.
Can't keep calling it little guy forever.
Chen Yang propped his chin with one hand, pondering carefully.
"Seeing that you're all golden, just like Gold, I'll call you Little Gold." After quite some thought, Chen Yang came up with this name.
Lucky there was no one around, or they might laugh to tears.
All golden, so call it Little Gold?
Could it sound any worse? Even calling it Little Yellow would have been better.
"Little Gold, did you hear that? I'm calling you." But Chen Yang didn't think there was any problem with this name, rather thought it was a nice pick.
And the Golden Rat Wolf, smart as it might be, is still an animal, so it wouldn't mind the name anyway.
Thinking of having Elixirs to eat later, it nodded without hesitation, accepting the name.
"Haha, alright, you go back and rest, come promptly next time I call." Chen Yang chuckled with satisfaction, thinking he picked a neat name.
Little Gold finished the Elixir, saw Chen Yang waving it off, and immediately darted back into the hole, disappearing from view.
Chen Yang stood up laughing, found some tools, and tidied up the fresh dirt around the hole, making it look more natural.
If you didn't know to look closely, you'd never tell there was such a hole in the yard.
Once done, Chen Yang went to the kitchen to make himself some breakfast.
After breakfast, just as Chen Yang was about to go for a walk, Jiang Miaoyan came by.
She was naturally here to fetch medicine for Lingling.
Lingling's treatment still had several days to go.
"Alright, wait a moment, I'll get it ready." Chen Yang knew Jiang Miaoyan's purpose, he hurried inside to fetch some medicine and handed it to her.
Then, with nothing else to do, he inquired about Lingling's condition.
"By the way, Miaoyan, how's Lingling doing, feeling better?" Chen Yang asked.
Hearing Chen Yang suddenly call her this made Jiang Miaoyan a bit surprised, but she quickly smiled and replied: "Mr. Chen, Lingling is recovering well, her mental and physical conditions are improving, thank you, Mr. Chen."
Talking about Lingling's illness, Jiang Miaoyan couldn't help but express her gratitude to Chen Yang.
Without Chen Yang's help, Lingling would surely be in serious danger by now, that's a given.
That's why she was so grateful to Chen Yang.
But Chen Yang didn't make much of it, studying medicine is all about reducing the sufferings of patients, after all.
He didn't think he was doing anything great, just following his conscience.
"Haha, no need for thanks, as long as she's recovering, that's what matters. You better get the medicine back to Lingling soon, don't let it delay your work." Chen Yang said with a smile.
The village work was in full swing, and Jiang Miaoyan had a job with the engineering team, so naturally, Chen Yang knew how busy she was.
And Jiang Miaoyan was indeed busy; hearing what Chen Yang said, she nodded and grabbed the medicine to leave.
But just as she turned around, she seemed to remember something and turned back.
"Oh, Mr. Chen, I wanted to ask if there are any uncles or aunts familiar with the water rafting project route in the village? I need to do some fieldwork in the afternoon and have no one to guide me." Jiang Miaoyan asked.
"Familiar with the project route? I'm afraid not, as the water rafting project is quite far from here." Chen Yang directly answered, then puzzled, asked: "You've just started the job, how come Mr. Li assigned you such a solo task already?"
"No, it's like this." Jiang Miaoyan realized Chen Yang misunderstood and quickly explained: "Mr. Li did arrange for someone to guide me, but that senior suddenly felt unwell so I had to go alone. Besides, it's such a small task, I didn't want to bother Mr. Li again, so I came to find someone myself."
After Jiang Miaoyan's explanation, Chen Yang understood the situation.
"I see, alright, you head back first, once Lingling's settled in, come find me. I'll take you there, I happen to have some matters over there too." Chen Yang thought and said.
Hearing Chen Yang's willingness to accompany her, Jiang Miaoyan was naturally delighted.
"Alright, thank you, Mr. Chen."
"No problem, don't mention it."
Chen Yang waved his hand with a smile.
Then Jiang Miaoyan hurried off.
After about ten to twenty minutes, she returned with a briefcase.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Chen." Seeing Chen Yang seemingly waiting at the entrance for a while, Jiang Miaoyan felt a bit apologetic.
In fact, Chen Yang just prepared everything at home and had only been waiting for a few minutes at the door.
"It's alright, I only waited a short while." Chen Yang said with a smile, then set off from the village with Jiang Miaoyan.
