“Welcome to our shop!”
Xu Ran almost jumped to his feet, the familiar greeting from his previous life subconsciously rolling off his tongue. Even Ziyun sat taller, eyes wide and sparkling, trying to look as charming and docile as possible.
“Meow-”
Xu Ran declared that providing washing and caring services to more Pet Beasts would earn him more skills!
So hand over your Pet Beasts for Xu Ran to groom!
“The young boss is even younger than I imagined, almost about the same age as my son!” The only female Beast Master among them, Liu Xue, covered her mouth as she chuckled. “Young boss, what services do your shop offer?”
“For now, we only provide cleaning and caring services, but there’ll possibly be more services in the future.” Xu Ran replied honestly.
The smile in Liu Xue’s eyes intensified. Even though she already knew the situation from Liu Gu, she couldn’t help teasing the young man in front of her. “So, how many Pet Beasts can your shop cater to at the same time?”
At the moment, it’s just me here, so I can only cater to one Pet Beast at a time.”
“Then, start with my Psychic Rat.” Liu Xue pointed to a Pet Beast that resembled a small mouse, which quietly nestled on her shoulder.
The Psychic Rat had sleek white fur all over its body, appearing like a small bundle of fluff. Its golden tail, bare and long, stood out remarkably and caught everyone’s attention.
At the Beast Master’s command, the Psychic Rat’s small eyes sparkled and danced. With one little hop, it landed on the counter, curiously surveying its surroundings.
Despite its small size, Xu Ran, who stood quite close to it, could feel a powerful aura emanating from it, its might comparable to that of the Wind Lion Dog.
[Race Name: Psychic Rat
Attribute: Super ability
Growth Step: Elite Stage
Body Type: Small
Washing and Protection Requirement: ★★☆☆☆
Comment: Beneath its petite body lies a deep desire for grooming. It needs the delicate touch of its host to achieve pleasure.]
The grooming charge for a small pet beast is 6666 yuan.” Xu Ran raised his head to meet Liu Xue’s eyes and quoted the price.
“No problem, we can start now.” Liu Xue agreed with a beaming smile.
Aside from Liu Gu, the other two remained silent with their arms folded, looking as if they were ready to enjoy a good show.
The Psychic Rat, as the name implies, is extremely psychic.
Liu Xue’s Psychic Rat is an important scout in their team and very difficult to handle. If Xu Ran could satisfy it, he would undoubtedly prove his prowess.
Moreover, it was the only small pet beast in their team, besides the Sea Wave Flower.
Liu Gu had sung high praises of Starfire Foster Care Shop, but his companions wanted to see for themselves. They decided to let the Psychic Rat be the first trial to test the quality of the grooming service. Only if they were convinced of the superior service would they entrust their own Pet Beasts to Xu Ran.
After all, given the high charges, they needed to be cautious.
Xu Ran had a hunch about why others remained silent. Without asking if the rest of the Pet Beasts needed grooming, he extended his hand towards the Psychic Rat. “Little guy, let me take you for grooming.”
“Squeak-”
The Psychic Rat glanced at Xu Ran and nonchalantly landed on his palm. It even made a face at Ziyun who was standing aside.
Ziyun narrowed her eyes.
A mere rat dared to make faces at her?!
Don’t get angry, don’t get angry.
Considering that this rodent might bring her a new skill, Ziyun’s gaze softened once again.
Realising that its playful antics had not affected the feline Pet Beast, the Psychic Rat shrugged and obediently settled on Xu Ran’s palm.
’’I’ll take it for grooming now, please wait.” After addressing Liu Xue, Xu Ran strode straight into the grooming room.
Once Xu Ran closed the door behind him, Liu Gu immediately cracked a wide smile. “The grooming might take a while. Why don’t we move to the lounge next door? There are snacks and you can help yourselves.”
“The set-up’s not half bad.” Yan Fan yawned, “Sister Liu’s Psychic Rat grooming shouldn’t take too long. We can hang around to see the results.”
“We came straight here after entering the city, we could indeed use a break.” Zhang Yun nodded slowly.
The four of them instantly agreed and brought their pet beasts into the rest area. freewebnove(l).com
On the front desk, Ziyun slowly lay down, casting kind glances from time to time at the dirty creatures inside the rest area.
It had a premonition that today, it would definitely learn a new skill!
[To improve the grooming effect this time, the system will teach the host the knowledge relevant to “Basic Washing and Protection of Rodent Type Pet Beasts” and “Basic Washing and Protection of Super Ability Attribute Pet Beasts”]
As a massive amount of new knowledge began pouring into his mind, Xu Ran, who had just put the Psychic Rat on the care platform, paused momentarily. He then began preparing for its grooming as if nothing had happened.
Grooming the Psychic Rat is not like grooming many other pet beasts. Its fur is long and extremely dense. Often, a single hair follicle can grow more than a dozen strands of fur, hence this dense type of fur can’t be directly washed with water.
Its grooming requires sand bathing.
A little basin filled with fine powder-like sand mixed with crushed super ability attribute resources, characteristic volcanic ash, was picked up by Xu Ran, and placed in front of the Psychic Rat.
In an instant, joyful sparks burst from the lively eyes of the Psychic Rat.
It could already imagine how refreshing and comfortable the cool sensation of these fine and cold sand granules seeping into fur gaps would feel.
Rolling in this sand is just too awesome!
“Squeak-”
With a cheer, the Psychic Rat didn’t wait for Xu Ran to say anything more. It leaped excitedly into the basin, starting to roll over and over, cheering.
As the small body turned over and raised a lot of sparse dust, Xu Ran, who had already prepared for this, calmly stepped back quickly.

Watching the rapidly increasing pleasure value, he nodded in satisfaction.
Who understands the joy of earning pleasure values without lifting a finger! Of course, not lifting a finger was only temporary, until the Psychic Rat slowed down its rolls in the sand bath, its small face filled with entranced expression. Xu Ran then carefully lifted it from the sandbox and started the subsequent caregiving steps.
He gently applied the moist Beautiful Fur cream on the surface of the Psychic Rat’s fur, then gently rubbed it to spread it evenly across each strand of its fur. The strength of his touch was transmitted to the hair follicles of the Psychic Rat. The beast that was lying quietly on the care platform suddenly widened its eyes.
The tingling sensation, as if it was there and not there, coming from the hair follicles all over its body, made the Psychic Rat uncontrollably quiver lightly, and it opened its claws to the maximum extent, as if it wanted to catch onto something. But soon, the claws came together weakly.

The Psychic Rat’s alert eyes gradually grew dazed, and an unrestrained sound came from its throat.
“Squeaaa—”
“What’s going on?”
Hearing her own pet beast’s strange noise from the grooming room, Liu Xue paused her actions and blinked her eyes in confusion.
“It’s normal. You’ll get used to it.” Liu Gu, sitting nearby, casually stuffed a handful of chips into his mouth and played his card.
“Three sixes, with a pair!”
