You can't afford it

Wen Meng had just closed her eyes when her phone rang.

Li Yuan replied to her.

[Li Yuan: You don't need to worry about the medical expenses. If I hadn't agreed to the relay race, you wouldn't have gotten hurt.]

[Wen Meng: But you didn't know this would happen when you agreed. Give me the bill.]

[Li Yuan: You can't afford it.]

Do I really have to be so blunt?

A person cannot be without backbone!

[Wen Meng: Are you looking down on me?]

[Ding]

The bill appeared.

Seeing that string of numbers, Wen Meng had a heart attack on the spot.

Integrity, indeed, is not something everyone can possess..

What kind of godforsaken place is this Imperial Star? How can a hospital visit cost so much?

I really miss the world with health insurance.

[Wen Meng: When I have money in the future...]

When will I have money?

Wait, she was hospitalized because of the attack from that girl in Class S, so the medical expenses should be covered by her.

Wen Meng regretted it; she forgot to mention this to Jiang Ling last night!

However, she should trust the police to do their job.

When the matter is thoroughly investigated, perhaps, I might receive compensation?

Li Yuan saw that Wen Meng hadn't spoken for a long time, perhaps she was tired. He told her to rest well and that he had already asked for leave from school on her behalf.

You don't have to come to class this week.

Taking a sick leave for a whole week—if it were the old Wen Meng, she would probably be too excited to sleep.

However, she is about to take the college entrance exam, and having missed classes for such a long time, she wonders if her studies will suffer.

But since she had already been invited, there was no need to overthink it. She happened to have a week of free time.

Why not find a way to work and earn some money, at least enough to support her until she gets into the University of Supernatural Abilities?

Wen Meng had only a few hundred star coins left in her account.

The ingredients in the fridge are running low; I need to go shopping at the supermarket.

She also needed to look for a new place. The rent for this apartment was too high, and she had to move out before the next rent payment was due.

Although it was a break, there were still many things to do.

Since it wasn't for school, and there was no need to stay in one place for a long time, being able to return home soon, taking the disaster beasts out for a stroll was also a good choice.

She thought about putting the disaster beasts in her backpack.

But—

After a few flashes of light.

Bai Yan, Hei Ze, and Jin Lü, three grown men, stood neatly in front of him.

You can't go out like this.

Wen Meng: "..."

It will be watched.

Wen Meng could already imagine that terrifying scene.

Except for the little bear who had not yet reached adulthood and could not transform into human form, the other three were becoming increasingly adept at it.

Wen Meng opened the system interface and noticed an energy bottle under the disaster beast transformation interface.

The color of the liquid in the bottles corresponded exactly to the abilities of the disaster beasts: Little White was red, Little Black was black, and Thunder Bird was gold.

When the energy in the bottle runs out, the disaster beasts will be unable to maintain their human form and will revert to their original state.

The recovery of energy levels generally follows the passage of time, but under certain conditions, the speed of recovery can accelerate, awaiting the involved beasts to discover it for themselves.

"In that case, none of you should even think about going out with me."

Wen Meng held the little bear king in her left arm and wagged her finger at the three men standing there like pillars.

The little bear king already looked like a toy, and after pretending to be one for so long, his acting skills had also been honed.

Basically, it could manage not to blink at all, so Wen Meng could take it out without worrying about being exposed.

It was still Xiao Bai who reacted the fastest, transforming into a little Samoyed in a flash and grinning at Wen Meng.

"Can I go out and play with you this way?"

"Of course you can," Wen Meng squatted down and patted its head, "Good boy!"

This is what enlightenment means!

"And you two?" Wen Meng said to the remaining two men.

Kurosawa and Jin Lu looked displeased.

We have a traitor among us!

We agreed to go out together.

The wolf charmer really is..

Kurosawa gritted his molars until they almost shattered; he hadn't changed a bit since childhood.

But there was no other way. If he insisted on maintaining his human form, Wen Meng wouldn't take him out

In order to go out and play with Wen Meng..

"Is this okay?" Little Black transformed into a snake, loosely coiling around Wen Meng's neck.

The head poked out, looking at her with innocent eyes.

When on the desolate planet, it was possible, but here, on the densely populated imperial star, it is not.

"No way..." Wen Meng said, embarrassed, "It would scare the passersby."

Little Black was extremely dissatisfied!

"Hissss—"

"Why can it do it?"

Little Black was referring to Little White, who was happily wagging his big tail on the ground.

"Because—" Xiao Bai said cheekily, "I'm adorable!"

Click, the sound of a breaking heart.

"Am I not cute?" Little Black couldn't believe it!

"Talk to me!" he said, gently bumping his head against Wen Meng's face

Wen Meng gently stroked its little head, "You're adorable too! Baby!"

Not very obviously cute.

"You have an inner cuteness, those passersby..."

Wen Meng chose her words carefully: "You have no taste!"

Xiao Hei has this one good trait: a little coaxing, and he's fine.

"That's not too bad, only you can see my cuteness," Little Black obediently entered Wen Meng's backpack. Before going in, it poked Little White, "Unlike some beasts, showing off outside, not following the beastly way!"

Did they watch another interstellar family drama and thereby learn new vocabulary?

Wen Meng: "..."

However, these words had limited impact on Xiaobai..

The Thunderbird, who was always out and about, felt like it had been called out.

After all, he had to go out and fly several laps every day to exercise his body.

Now he was the only one left, still holding on to his human form.
