The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".

"Mr. Four-Unlikes, are you willing to become Bixie's companion, whether in poverty or wealth, and never be separated?"

"I am willing!"

"Then, Mr. Bixie, are you willing to become partners with the Four No-Face, for life, whether in glory or in poverty?"

"I am willing."

Soft music and a conversation reached her ears. Walnut opened her eyes and saw a magnificently decorated hotel with red silk cloth hanging everywhere. The lobby was packed with people.

On the central stage, Puss in Boots held a microphone with a solemn expression. Pixie and an unfamiliar white Qilin stood together in red suits, with Bai Jie Tian Lu dressed as best man and maid of honor beside them.

Mwah? What's going on?!

Before Walnut could react, the process on stage continued.

"First bow! To Heaven and Earth!"

At Puss in Boots's shrill announcement, Pixie and the Four-Faced Beast bowed their heads and prostrated themselves before the hotel. Thunder roared outside, and the ground shook.

"Second bow! To our parents!"

The two beasts turned around at the same time, facing the Primordial Qilin and the Jade Qilin behind them, and bowed again.

"Husband and wife! Bow to each other!"

Turning around, facing them, he met the gazes of Bixie and Sibuxiang, bowed... and knelt down!

"The ceremony is complete! Time to enter the bridal chamber!!"

Puss in Boots' voice suddenly rose in pitch.

Si Bu Xiang took Bi Xie's paw and pulled him onto its back. Tian Lu and Bai Jie naturally followed suit and climbed up. Amidst the increasingly loud cheers of the guests, the four beasts happily descended the stage and ran towards the back door.

Walnut, who watched the whole thing, was completely dumbfounded, constantly trying to answer three questions in her mind.

Who am I? Where am I? Why am I having such a strange dream?!

"Now, please welcome... the next couple to the stage!"

Puss in Boots' loud reading came from the stage again, and Walnut looked up with a bewildered look in his eyes.

Is there another pair?

"Walnut, it's our turn."

"Moji?"

Walnut turned its head in bewilderment and saw a little white fox with four red petal-shaped patterns on its forehead, blushing as it reached out to touch its paws.

Then, even more confused, Walnut was pulled onto the stage by the other party, and the next second, the microphone was picked up and shoved into his cheek.

"Mr. Walnut, are you willing to become Ms. Fuzai's husband, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, and to stay with her forever?"

Walnut finally came to his senses. He looked at Puss in Boots and then at the shy Fu-zai beside him. His sluggish mind finally caught on, and his face instantly turned bright red.

"Mwah, mwah, mwah! Wait a minute, Walnut doesn't know her! Why does he have to marry her!?"

However, Puss in Boots ignored what Walnut was saying and turned around to hand the microphone to Fu-zai's mouth as usual.

"Then, Ms. Fuzai, are you willing to become Mr. Walnut's wife, for life, whether in glory or in poverty?"

"I am willing."

Fu-zai lowered his head shyly.

"Hey! Why don't you listen to the cat?"

Walnut was on the verge of a breakdown, but still no beast paid him any attention.

"Now let's move on to the next step, the worship ceremony! Newlyweds, please get ready!"

"First! Bow! to! Heaven..."

"and many more!"

A loud shout interrupted Puss in Boots' speech, causing a commotion in the audience. A fox that looked eight parts like Fuk-jai stepped onto the stage. The pattern on his forehead was two flower petals and a maple leaf. He looked resolute.

"I want to steal the bride!"

The guests were in an uproar! Various murmurs arose, and Walnut learned from them the name of the fox in front of him: Shota.

Amidst the tremendous commotion, Shota stepped forward, his gaze full of affection. He slowly raised his paw, and then... took Walnut's paw.

"Walnut, I've actually liked you for a long time, but I've never had the courage to confess... But today! Please come with me!"

"Moji!?"

"Why bother, Shota?"

Puss in Boots tried to mediate.

"Monogamy is legal now. If you really like walnuts, then let's get married right here."

Shota was silent for a moment, then his eyes showed determination.

"Since it's for Walnut Boy, then I'm willing!"

"it is good!"

Puss in Boots shouted and shoved the microphone in front of Shota.

"Then, Mr. Shota, are you willing to be Walnut's husband! For life, forever and never to be apart!?"

Shota shouted with all his might.

"I! Will! Do!"

"enough!"

Walnut finally couldn't hold back any longer, and the power of the Mengji Divine Force suddenly erupted! The entire dream world began to tremble!

Walnut unlocks a new skill: manipulating dreams.

Meanwhile on the other side...

Three Pixiu were about to enter the bridal chamber on the back of the Four Unlikes, but at that moment, Bai Jie suddenly became alert and woke up!

The surrounding scenery shattered instantly, like a mirage, and everything in sight transformed into a world composed of distorted colors.

"Ugh!"

Suddenly, his footing gave way, and Bai Jie fell to the ground with a cry of pain. Before he could get up, a figure pounced on him and pinned him down.

"Bai Jie! What kind of dreams are you having?! Mwah!"

Walnut blushed with embarrassment and anger, his face turning red to the roots of his ears. Bai Jie, who was being held down, was still in a daze. Seeing this, Walnut grabbed Bai Jie by the collar and shook him violently.

"Who are those two foxes? I don't even recognize them, why are they getting married?!"

"Ugh, uh-huh! Wait! Stop shaking me first!"

Bai Jie was shaken until he was dizzy and began to resist instinctively. The two beasts rolled around on the ground. After a while, Bai Jie's resistance failed and he was pinned down and unable to move.

"A hundred solutions!"

Walnut puffed out its cheeks and rode on Bai Jie's back. At this moment, the two beasts were in the position of Bai Jie lying flat, with Walnut holding its claws. Qian Qian's body was facing each other, and Bai Jie looked away directly at Walnut's embarrassed and angry eyes.

"Well, um... it was just a dream, Walnut. I couldn't control myself, so please don't be angry. I was wrong. I'm sorry."

Bai Jie adopted a very humble attitude and apologized three times in a row, which instantly reduced Walnut's anger by a large margin, and even made him feel a little guilty.

"Hehe... Okay, Walnut was wrong too, Walnut... I forgive you."

Walnut loosened its grip and stood up, and Baijie immediately followed suit, turning around and hugging him, which startled Walnut.

"Mwah, mwah! What's Bai Jie doing?"

"fine."

Bai Jie buried his face in the walnut's fuzzy chest and took a deep breath, instantly feeling a sense of satisfaction.

"By the way, Walnut, why haven't you come to visit me in my dreams lately?"

Not long after, after his usual cat-petting session, Bai Jie asked him a question. Walnut's face turned slightly red, but upon hearing the question, he seemed to recall something, and his body suddenly began to tremble.

"Hey, the exam is coming up soon. Mom told Walnut to study hard in her dreams. Mom went to see Dad today, so Walnut had a chance to come out and play."

When the topic turned to sad things, Walnut's blush faded as he spoke, replaced by an expression that looked like he was about to cry. Bai Jie opened his mouth, but finally opened his arms and hugged him with sympathy.

"Moji... Bai Jie... Ughhhhhh!"

Recalling the mountain of exercise books in her dream, Walnut's voice trembled at first. Then, unable to hold back her tears, she burst into tears.

"Okay, okay, don't cry, don't cry. I'll bring you something delicious tomorrow!"

……

"Squeak, squeak."

Sunlight streamed into the room through the window, and Skeleton Cat sat on his sofa listening to Skeleton Mouse's report.

We've already secured a role in a film production, and the payment is almost finalized. All that's left is for Skull Cat to agree; the production team wants to discuss this directly with Skull Cat.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak."

After reporting, the skeleton rat sought its boss's opinion. The skeleton cat nodded, and the skeleton rat, having accepted the order, immediately ran off, returning shortly afterward with a cell phone in hand.

[Ding! ]

The video call connected, the screen lit up, and the image of a black cat appeared.

"Hello, can you hear me? Oh, sure. Ahem... Hi, hello, I'm Puss in Boots, the director of the Beasts crew."

"Gulu gulu."

The skeleton cat responded, but it would have been better if she hadn't spoken. As soon as she did, the black cat on the screen froze instantly.

On the other end of the phone, Puss in Boots looked utterly exasperated. She had anticipated many scenarios for this call, but she never expected it to be like this. She couldn't understand a word the other person was saying!

"Gulu gulu?"

Skeleton Cat's voice was tinged with doubt, and Puss in Boots almost awkwardly stammered out 31 three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment.

"Wait a minute, I'm going out to find a translator!"

She said this and hurriedly ran outside.

"Xiaohang! Xiaohang! Where's Diting? Ask him for help!"

Soon after, Di Ting was found to act as a translator, and the two cats were able to communicate normally. After discussing it, Skull Cat agreed to go to the Beasts movie crew to film, but she had other things to do and would have to go later. Boots also readily agreed.

More than a month has passed,

During this time, the three Pixiu (mythical creatures) worked hard to prepare for the exam, while Tianlu continued as usual, always convincing himself that he was busy with work and that there was still some time before the exam.

As for Bai Jie, he felt no pressure at all. If he couldn't pass the elementary school exam, then all his education in his previous life would have been for nothing... except for English.

However, it wasn't without its troubles. Walnut had been visiting him more frequently lately, and every time she came, she would cry and say things like how tiring studying was and she didn't want to do her homework. Then, with tears in her eyes, she would take out her workbook and ask him to study together.

He said he told his mother he was going to study in his classmate's dream, but he had to take the exam when he got back.

Bai Jie was dumbfounded and just wanted to say, "Why did you drag me into your suffering?!"

However, seeing Walnut's teary eyes, she ultimately didn't say anything and resigned herself to studying together, enduring until the day of the exam...
