Chapter 1391: Chapter 844: Staying in the Metropolis

"You have a grudge against Gong Baiyi?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"No grudge."

The Honey Badger shook its head.

"Why did you let it through as soon as you heard you needed to deliver to it without any grudge?"

He asked.

"See those two statues?"

The Honey Badger pointed to the two statues at the entrance and said.

"I see them, what are they?"

"They are the developers of this community, and also the leaders of us carnivores. It was they who raised funds to create this community, giving us a place to settle. They also led us in repelling the attacks from Green District and other forces, allowing us to live in peace."

The Honey Badger spoke in a tone of admiration.

"Sounds impressive, but what does this have to do with Gong Baiyi?"

Liu Zheng asked, playing the straight man.

"Gong Baiyi is the descendant of Lord Silver Tiger, but it hasn’t inherited any of Silver Tiger’s strengths. Any carnivore is braver and more capable than it. No, even those herbivores are much stronger than it!"

The Honey Badger said indignantly.

"It can’t be that bad. As the saying goes, a dragon begets dragons, a phoenix begets phoenixes, even a tiger’s offspring is still a big cat."

He said.

"Ha, have you ever heard of a cat choking on meat?"

The Honey Badger asked.

"Yes, I’ve seen a cat get stuck by dried fish."

Liu Zheng replied. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"How big was the cat, and how big was the dried fish?"

"The cat was about this big, the dried fish was about this big."

He gestured first to the size of a keyboard, then to the size of a packet of tissues.

"Ha, Gong Baiyi is as big as that statue, but the piece of beef that nearly choked it was only the size of a palm."

The Honey Badger sneered.

"Actually, the statue’s palm is quite large."

As the food delivery guy, Liu Zheng tried to restore its dignity.

"It’s my palm."

The Honey Badger said blankly.

"Actually... alright, that’s really weak."

He admitted the failure of restoring dignity.

"A waste like that shouldn’t exist in this world. Every second it lives is an insult to Lord Silver Tiger."

The Honey Badger cursed.

"But if it dies, won’t Silver Tiger’s bloodline be cut off?"

Liu Zheng said.

"No, it has three cousins, each much better than it, but they’re all striving outside and not living in the community."

The Honey Badger shook its head.

"Alright. But I’m just responsible for delivery, whether it dies or not is beyond my control."

He said.

"Doesn’t matter, it can’t get worse than it is now. If possible, I’d prefer it awakened its rightful blood and courage because of your stimulation. If you can do that, then I owe you one."

The Honey Badger said.

"So you hate iron for not turning into steel, that’s understandable. Okay, I’ll give it a try, but don’t expect too much."

Liu Zheng didn’t make any promises.

Not because he didn’t care for the Honey Badger’s favor, but because the matter was too difficult.

Even the power of bloodline and genetics couldn’t prevent Gong Baiyi from turning into trash, so why could he turn it back into a real tiger?

"Doesn’t matter, it can’t get worse than it is now."

The Honey Badger repeated the previous words.

Then it personally led Liu Zheng to the door of Building 3, Room 502.

"It’s up to you."

The Honey Badger said this before leaving.

Although it deeply disliked Gong Baiyi, it couldn’t watch Silver Tiger’s bloodline die in front of it.

"You leave it to me, and what do I leave to?"

Liu Zheng rolled his eyes and then knocked on the door of Room 502.

"Who, who is it?"

A muffled voice came from inside the door.

"Hello, I’m a food recommendation officer, here to recommend our latest developed ’Universal Meat Eater Food’ to you, do you have time to try it?"

He once again played the food recommendation card.

"Ah? Are you an official from City Hall?"

Gong Baiyi asked.

"No, but I’m a family member of a City Hall official, and I have a lot of cooperation with City Hall."

Liu Zheng said.

"Oh. Then wait a moment."

Soon, the door was opened.

A huge white tiger appeared in front of him.

Its appearance was eight to nine parts similar to the statue of Silver Tiger, but the nuanced difference in facial features along with the differing expressions made its temperament completely different from Silver Tiger.

Liu Zheng instead remembered a cat café where he saw a silver shorthair. Because of the defects of close breeding, the silver shorthair had very low intelligence, not only unable to use the litter box but also not eating dry cat food.

When other cats were playing and fighting, it would just watch. When other cats hit it, it would still just watch. When humans picked it up to cuddle, it still watched.

If he didn’t know it was a stupid cat, it actually looked a bit like a wise cat seeing through everything.

Hmm, thinking about it, that silver shorthair’s temperament was even stronger than Gong Baiyi’s.

Gong Baiyi’s expression was too human-like, making its foolishness very obvious.

"Please put it in this bowl."

The big tiger released the large iron basin from its mouth and then nudged it with its paw.

"May I ask if you are Gong Baiyi?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Yes."

The big tiger nodded.

"Do you recognize the uniform I’m wearing?"

He pointed to his uniform and asked.

"I should recognize it, but I can’t remember."

Gong Baiyi hesitated for a moment and then said.

"..."

Why is it so guilt-inducing to deliver food for the first time?

"Go ahead, eat."

Liu Zheng took out a pack of "Universal Meat Eater Food" and poured it into Gong Baiyi’s bowl.

He didn’t dare to give dried fish for fear Gong Baiyi might choke itself.

"Thank you."

Gong Baiyi politely said and then bowed its head to eat.
