Chapter 98
After counting and finding one more, Gu Huai looked down at the black ball held by his one hand, and it looked at him with dark red round eyes. Gu Huai couldn't help thinking for a moment.
"Squeak..." The king of his family found out it was new, and the black ball that looked at the young man twisted its body slightly, but it was not willing to move its eyes.
Gu Huai first put the black ball back to its original position, then looked around the room, and finally withdrew his eyes in confusion.
As soon as its eyes connected with the youth's, the new black ball lifted itself up and started squeaking. Round eyes concentrated on looking back at its king without blinking.
Although the youth did not embrace it, he didn't drive it away. With this in mind, this black ball continued to stay at the top of the script page in peace and order. Since its king put it there, it couldn't move.
Gu Huai looked at the new black ball for a while, then stretched out his hand to touch it, patting its head naturally.
Because he could see that this ball was very cautious in its every movement, Gu Huai squeezed his eyebrows after finishing the above actions and clearly expressed his attitude.
He couldn't figure out where the black ball came from suddenly, but it was a good thing to see more family members. Gu Huai asked the black balls to sit in rows, and he opened another script.
Just now, the script had been used as a cushion by the two black balls. However, that part had been seen anyway. Gu Huai simply skipped it, and the two balls stayed happily.
When the youth was ready to read the script, the black balls, which were required to stay together on the table, consciously stopped making noises and watched the youth work very quietly with their eyes wide open.
But just when Gu Huai opened the first page of the new script, and didn't even finish the first four paragraphs, a very familiar scene happened again.
A black ball sprang up on the well unfolded script and blocked the script that the youth was about to read. The black ball also made a gesture of raising its body to attract the youth's attention.
"Squeak... squeak!" Imitating the behavior of their fellow nightmare just now, the black balls moved closer to the youth without leaving any trace.
Gu Huai was not able to react for a while.
Another one??
The interrogative expression just floated on Gu Huai's face, and in the next second, Gu Huai was really confused.
The seventh, the eighth...
One by one, the black balls appeared in front of Gu Huai like they had fallen from the sky. As soon as Gu Huai reached out, he received one steadily.
"Squeak."
"Squeak, squeak..."
In the blink of an eye, the number of black balls around the youth became quite considerable, and they kept squeaking at him, making the originally quiet room lively.
He didn't expect such a scene at all. Gu Huai froze for a while before returning to his senses.
Among so many black balls, the one who was carried by the youth was undoubtedly the most joyful one now. At this time, it was very careful to shrink his body and cuddled in the youth's open hands.
It could also be regarded as being carried by the king. The black ball was round and its eyes were wide open, its dark red eyes were obviously cheering.
Suddenly surrounded by a group of black balls, Gu Huai had some difficulties in adapting to the situation, because the number had become too large, and it was a little difficult for him to pay attention to each one of them as before.
"Squeak." The eyes of the black balls surrounding the youth did not stray from the youth's hands making their intentions obvious.
The script couldn't be seen for the time being. Gu Huai took a look at the scripts on the table which was being stabilized by his family, and then looked away with a little helplessness.
Compared with reading the script, Gu Huai knew that he should be thinking more about balancing this situation.
"OK... Line up." In the end, Gu Huai came up with a very primitive solution.
As soon as the young man's voice fell, there was a burst of responsive squeaks around him, and the black balls surrounding the youth quickly arranged themselves in several lines in perfect order, and several of them in the front row had already tilted themselves up.
According to the order of the team, Gu Huai held several black balls in his hands every short period of time until each one had been hugged.
Due to the considerable quantity, it took Gu Huai a lot of time to finish the work.
There was indeed an advantage in their cub form. A group of Nightmares pretending to be cubs sat quietly on the table or floated around the youth after being hugged by him.
In fact, the first thought to use the cub form of the Nightmares was only after seeing the four black balls around the youth. It emerged from among the many black balls and squeaked a few times to communicate with its neighbors.
King was busy with his work. They should give a good performance.
Gu Huai could understand the communication and dialogue of these black balls, he couldn't help laughing. Soon, Gu Huai saw the black balls sitting in rows on the table leaving a space in the middle of the table.
The previously suppressed script was now pushed to a position convenient for youth to read by a few black balls, leaving three Nightmares to stay on each side of the open script and one in the middle with its body facing right.
What kind of posture was this Gu Huai looked at the scene, his expression was a little confused.
However, this group of black balls moved out of their seats wisely, and Gu Huai continued to read the scripts on the table according to this situation.
At the end of the page, Gu Huai reached out his hand to touch the page. At this time, he realized the cleverness of his family.
The three black balls around the script worked together and soon turned the script to the next page.
After doing this, the three balls continued to pay attention to the youth's reading of the script and were ready to turn to the next page at any time.
If they did well, they would continue to be close to him when the youth finished his work.
The rest of the black balls were now paying attention to other intentions of the youth and were ready to take action.
Just reading a script, which was really enjoying advanced treatment, Gu Huai coughed and verbally praised the black balls that were watching him closely.
"Squeak!" Obviously, a group of black balls praised by the youth immediately became more enthusiastic about their work, and their round eyes could see nothing but the youth.
King was especially good-looking, they should take advantage of the opportunity to see more.
Different races were not a problem at all. The youth with the extreme Yin constitution was the king of the Nightmares. In addition, when these black balls met the youth, they actually felt a kind of restraint immediately.
The reason for the restraint was even more complicated than just him having extreme Yin constitution, it was like it existed in their instincts.
Under the special treatment provided by his family, Gu Huai had roughly read nearly ten scripts sent to him and had almost made a choice.
The young man had finished his work. As soon as they realized this, the black balls around the youth inevitably became restless.
Although they had only been together for a short time, many of the nightmares who had come to C City from Qujing City had confirmed that the youth had a good temper and didn't hate them. It seemed that he was willing to keep them close.
Someone must be the pioneer.
At this time, a black ball boldly approached the youth, and then jumped to the youth's legs.
A nightmare scampered past first, but the youth did not object at this time. The consequences were quite obvious.
When the first black ball jumped over, Gu Huai didn't stop it. When other black balls jumped over together, Gu Huai slowly felt the difficulty.
A few were nestled in his legs and the position on his shoulders was also occupied. Although Gu Huai still tried his best to carry four in his arms, the number was far from enough compared with the number of black balls that wanted to jump on him to form a nest.
He couldn't hold...
Gu Huai felt that he was going to be drowned by this group of black balls, but to meet so many family members was also a kind of distress that made Gu Huai happy.
When Yan Lin returned to the Yan's residence from the company after finishing his work, he saw almost the same scene.
A large number of black balls followed the youth, all the way around the youth.
They were in their cub form, but these nightmares could shape shift long ago. Seeing this at a glance, Yan Lin unconsciously squinted.
These Nightmares were the youth's family. The close relationship between the two did not trouble Yan Lin. It was just that Yan Lin vaguely remembered something seeing them pretend to be cubs.
He seemed...
Gu Huai had just put the three scripts he initially selected by his side of the bed. He was going to sit at the head of the bed and choose one of the three scripts. At this time, Gu Huai had just noticed that the door of the room had opened at some time.
The next second, Gu Huai reflexively opened his hand to embrace an unidentified object that jumped into his arms.
Against the backdrop of many black balls, this white round cub in the arms of the youth was especially conspicuous.
It was not the dragon's cub form, but the form of the Zerg cub, Yan Lin's appearance had changed.
Jumping into the young man's arms, the round cub narrowed his pale golden pupils, and the little silver tail behind him curled up and moved, circling his tail around the young man's finger.
"Chirp."
