Why isn't what I command considered a beast?

Upon hearing this question, Xiao Yinhua excitedly started chattering away.

It turns out that when they forcibly etherealized the pet space, the little mermaid with only a soul imprint also awakened.

Because it is essentially already Mingxi's pet beast.

The pet space is also its home.

If they want to 'move,' they naturally need its permission.

"...No wonder, it must have consumed a lot of soul energy."

"Ugh!"

The little one's soul energy was weakened repeatedly even before it was born...

We don't know what the future holds.

She touched her forehead and murmured, "Thank you. No matter what, I will find a way to rescue you."

Even if it weren't for the position of a pet beast, it would still be for the life-saving grace.

"Lingling?"

How is Brother Jin Yuanbao doing?

Mingxi patted its head again. "Jin Yuanbao has entered the newly built functional room in the Time Realm. It will be fine."

This time, she was willing to believe in Guangguang!

-

The next day.

Mingxi called Wang Pinglu and Meng Yue to say goodbye, and then left Dijing City without any hesitation.

Headquarters of the Secret Realm Administration Bureau.

"Hey, isn't this Old Meng? What brings you to work today? Didn't you volunteer to be that little beast tamer Mingxi's lapdog?"

Before Meng Yue could even enter her office, she was blocked by her arch-enemy.

My mortal enemy's surname is Gou and his given name is Chong. He is a middle-aged man with shifty eyes.

The two were classmates, having entered the Special Administration Bureau in the same batch of exams that year.

Gou Zha had connections and got into the Special Administration Bureau through back channels.

Meng Yue came from a poor family, but she had a high aptitude for beast taming and earned her job opportunity entirely through her own abilities.

Gou Zha is petty, narrow-minded, and self-righteous. He also likes to tattle on his colleagues' minor mistakes.

Meng Yue is cheerful and generous, and works diligently and responsibly, making her well-liked by her colleagues and highly valued by her superiors.

Meng Yue's excellence made Gou Zha Zhong seem utterly worthless.

Gou Zha naturally regarded Meng Yue as a thorn in his side and secretly tripped her up several times.

After this happened repeatedly, even the good-natured Meng Yue couldn't tolerate it anymore and began to fight back.

The two continued their struggle for many years.

It's become muscle memory now; if I don't make a sarcastic remark when I see someone, I feel uneasy all day.

Therefore, Meng Yue remained calm in the face of Gou Zhazhong's sarcastic remarks.

Meng Yue rolled her eyes. "None of your business!"

"Heh, you're supposed to be an A-rank Beast Tamer, don't you feel ashamed to condescend to take care of a little brat?"

Gou Zha sneered, "You wouldn't be trying to get some benefit from her, would you?"

"Yes, yes, it must be."

"Otherwise, why would you be so kind?"

"But I think you're dreaming! That little brat who hasn't even grown his hair yet thinks he's a genius is bound to be eccentric and rude. Even if she really did gain something in the Secret Realm of Dharma Fall, she would never be so generous as to give it to you."

"You've wasted your time!"

Meng Yue listened expressionlessly to his incessant babbling, neither interrupting nor stopping him.

She was used to this kind of thing.

Just then, the voice of Xiao Luo, Director Wang's assistant, came from behind.

"Sister Meng, wait a minute, I have a package for you, I brought it over for you."

Hearing Xiao Luo's words, Meng Yue frowned in confusion: "My package? I haven't bought anything recently?"

"Haha, the sender is Miss Mingxi. She probably sent a copy to Director Wang as a thank you for taking care of her yesterday. She's such a thoughtful young lady."

Upon hearing this, both Meng Yue and Gou Zha were stunned.

Meng Yue took the package from Xiao Luo.

The packaging box was very secure, and the shipping label indeed had her and Mingxi's names on it.

"Hehe, it seems you didn't flatter her for nothing, Lao Meng. At least that little brat knows some manners. Quickly open it and see what she gave you."

I'm guessing it's either a Tranquilizing Fruit or an E-grade energy crystal.

Gou Zha smirked, a Dragon King's smile on his face.

The calming fruit is a specialty of the sacred land, and it has a calming and soothing effect after consumption.

With a market price of less than 1000 Star Coins, it is the cheapest type of Energy Fruit.

"Hurry, hurry!!"

Meng Yue frowned, not wanting to open the package in front of others.

In her view, whatever Mingxi gave her was a token of the child's affection.

But that bastard will definitely use this as an excuse to make trouble, especially if Mingxi really gave him a Tranquilizing Fruit or an E-grade Energy Crystal.

He would definitely belittle Mingxi to mock her, which was something she didn't want to see.

"Brother Gou is right, Sister Meng, why don't you open it and take a look?"

Ronaldinho suddenly spoke up.

Then he secretly winked at Meng Yue and mouthed the words.

Meng Yue was stunned.

He looked down at the package in his hands.

"Women just love ink! Here, I'll open it for you!"

Gou Zha was about to snatch the package from Meng Yue's hand when he spoke again.

How could Meng Yue let him succeed? She quickly dodged and said coldly, "No need for that, I have my own hands!"

Xiao Luo must know something.

Could there be something very valuable inside this package?

Meng Yue quickly opened the package, inside which was a simple jade box.

Upon seeing the jade box, Meng Yue knew she had guessed correctly; ordinary calming fruits or energy crystals wouldn't be packaged in such a jade box.

Without further hesitation, she opened the jade box.

The three heads were almost touching.

"Impossible? Am I seeing things? Yes, I must be seeing things!"

Xiao Luo chuckled, "Although Miss Mingxi is young, she is exceptionally polite. She also gave Director Wang a Hundred Happiness Fruit."

And there were two of them.

His generosity was astonishing.

That's why he 'supported' Gou Zhazhong.

Gou Zha was shocked: "How is this possible! Is this really the Hundred Happiness Fruit?!"

Gou Zha's face turned green, a mint green.

It's heartbreaking, like lemon flavor.

He never expected that the little brat he thought was so ill-mannered would be so generous. Meng Yue had only taken care of her for a few hours, and she actually gave him the Hundred Happiness Fruit, a priceless material.

Wasn't that kid supposed to come from an ordinary background? Why is he so wasteful?

I should have known he would have licked it too!

This is the Hundred Happiness Fruit, a fruit that can enhance brain development. Even if he doesn't use it himself, selling it would at least ensure he has enough to eat and drink for several years.

Regret!

I regret it so much!

What's even more regrettable is that the benefits ended up going to his arch-enemy! It's a double whammy!

Mingxi had no idea whose face she had slapped with her 'small gift'.

She was certainly not a spendthrift, and the Hundred Happiness Fruit didn't just fall from the sky.

She wanted to take this opportunity to befriend Wang Pinglu and Meng Yue.

The Secret Realm Management Bureau is definitely the most resource-rich department in Longhua Kingdom. Befriending them will only benefit her and not harm her.

Sending out three Hundred Happiness Fruits should be enough to open up some connections, right?

After getting off the plane, Mingxi let her grandma know she was safe and then went back to school to return to school.

Upon seeing Mingxi return safely, Chen Haiyan's dark expression finally softened after a long day. She glared at him and asked irritably, "Did the organizers of the regional competition contact you?"
