All Furries Love Me!! - Chapter 29 PT1

Chapter 29 PT1 – Jealousy

Before going to work the next day, Ji Xingchun sneezed several times in succession.

The young man rubbed his nose, wondering if he didn’t have a cold. Could it be that… someone was thinking about him? ?

Seeing that it was almost time for him to leave, Ji Xingchun didn’t think any more about it, and he tidied his appearance and set off.

After having dinner with the director and others last night, Ji Xingchun received an invitation, which was to move directly into the zoo.

In the past, zoos did not provide staff dormitories, but this was mainly for human employees.

Now Ji Xingchun had not only gained the trust of the zoo director and staff, but was also deeply loved by all the furry animals in the zoo. Naturally, he would no longer be subject to this restriction.

Ji Xingchun naturally happily agreed to the olive branch extended by the director. After all, where he currently lived was a full hour’s drive from the zoo, and it was not very convenient for him to commute to get off work.

While calculating what things needed to be moved from the rented house and how long it would take, Ji Xingchun had just entered the zoo when he saw Bai Zichen, who looked hesitant and seemed to be hesitant to speak.

As soon as he saw Bai Zichen, Ji Xingchun couldn’t help but think of the incident last night when Bai Zichen did a “cry for greed”: …

With a light cough, Ji Xingchun greeted politely, “Good morning.”

Bai Zichen twisted his body on the spot, and finally seemed to have made up his mind. A look of determination appeared on his face, and then he took two steps forward.

Ji Xingchun resisted the urge to step back and distance himself from the Peacock Demon, then he saw Bai Zichen taking out something from somewhere… that looked like a bracelet?

The entire bracelet is silver-white, but the material is somewhat strange. It is not made of silver. It looked like… a hardened bird feather bent into a circle?

Obvious peacock feather patterns can be seen on the bracelet’s surface, and the most iconic feature of peacock feathers is the eye spot that runs horizontally across the bracelet’s surface, which is clear without losing the soft texture of the feather.

Ji Xingchun looked at it for two seconds and made an assessment in his mind: It is simple yet gorgeous, and quite nice.

Hmm…Bai Zichen has good aesthetic taste.

Bai Zichen stared at the human in front of him eagerly. Seeing that he didn’t respond for a long time, he couldn’t help but get anxious:

「Wow, why doesn’t he take it? Does he not like this apology gift?!」

After hearing these words, Ji Xingchun finally realized that Bai Zichen had blocked him at the door early in the morning to hand him a bracelet as an apology gift!

After understanding the reason, Ji Xingchun didn’t intend to let the silly peacock worry there any longer, so he spoke directly:

“Is this for me?”

Bai Zichen’s eyes lit up and he nodded quickly.

He twisted his fingers, but was afraid of damaging the bracelet in his hand, so he quickly relaxed his grip and continued, “Do you like it? If you don’t like it, then forget it. It’s just a little toy I made casually anyway…”

Although Bai Zichen’s tone of voice seemed nonchalant, his true thoughts were clearly exposed to Ji Xingchun:

「You really don’t like it, do you? I made this with the second most beautiful feather on my body!」

「If, if even this doesn’t work……Oh no, I don’t think I have anything else to offer……」

From Ji Xingchun’s perspective, the young man with hair as white as snow had slightly red eyes, and his gaze was three parts earnest and three parts nervous. Coupled with his delicate facial features, he looked very lovable.

Ji Xingchun, who was shocked by the “beauty”, paused. He coughed lightly, then took the bracelet from Bai Zichen’s hand, and then put it on his wrist under the other’s expectant gaze.

Although the peacock feather bracelet looked fancy, the size is just right when worn on the wrist. Ji Xingchun was originally just trying it on, and now it seemed that wearing it all the time would not affect his work.

“Thank you, this bracelet is very beautiful.” Ji Xingchun answered seriously, and then he saw Bai Zichen’s expression was as bright as the clouds had cleared and a smile suddenly broke out.

“I knew you would like it. That’s my aesthetic after all.” Bai Zichen snorted and said in a nonchalant tone.

「Yeah! He really likes it! !!」

“Since you have received the gift, let’s go to work. If we don’t hurry, we will be late.”

「Ji Xingchun’s wrist is white, and my feather looks good on it! I’m so happy」

Ji Xingchun couldn’t help but laugh when he heard Bai Zichen’s words, which were completely different from his true feelings.

He heard from the director that Bai Zichen had only just reached adulthood, no wonder he had such a quirky personality, but he was quite cute.

Thinking of this, Ji Xingchun glanced at the bracelet and suddenly remembered – ‘doesn’t this snow-white peacock feather look… a little familiar???’

The feather that the little tiger gifted to him yesterday flashed through Ji Xingchun’s mind. Because Bai Zichen shrunk too far back that day and was out of his mind-reading range, he was unable to understand the truth of the matter.

………It turns out that the “silly bird” in Bei Ming’s mind was referring to Bai Zichen!!

Originally, Ji Xingchun didn’t know that Bai Zichen’s prototype was the white peacock. Although he had some speculation, he didn’t think about it in detail. Now that he put everything together, he felt that everything made sense.

When he thought that the two most beautiful feathers on Bai Zichen’s body were probably on himself, and then looked at the white peacock’s face that was still secretly smiling, Ji Xingchun said: ‘Well… I should be nicer to Bai Zichen in the future.’

At work today, Ji Xingchun’s partner is Bai Zichen, who is determined to wash away the bad impression left before, is naturally in high spirits and wants to perform well.

On the way to the Snow Leopard Park, Huang Jing, who was jogging around the zoo in the morning, sniffed his nose. He was confused for a moment. Was it an illusion? Why did he smell Xiao Ji’s scent, but mixed with that of the white peacock demon??

Turning his head, he saw Ji Xingchun and Bai Zichen, a man and a demon, passing by. Huang Jing took a look and quickly discovered that the “bird smell” on Xiao Ji came from the feather bracelet on his wrist.

Huang Jing, who grew up in the human world, scratched his head. For some reason, he had an indescribable strange feeling.

………Is Xiao Ji too close to Bai Zichen?

Shaking his head, Huang Jing drove this thought out of his mind. After all, Ji Xingchun was just walking side by side with Bai Zichen normally, and they didn’t have an arm around each other or anything like that…

Well, it was probably just the smells mixing together that gave him an illusion!!

After finishing his work at the Snow Leopard Park, Ji Xingchun ran into Yun Che who had just gotten up to work. It seemed that the other party had just woken up not long ago, and there were still some snake demon characteristics on his body that had not been hidden well.

Yun Che, whose face still had some green snake scales and whose pupils even looked like those of a snake, yawned, and the forked tip of his tongue could be seen in his open mouth.

“Good morning and good afternoon.” Ji Xingchun greeted him.

Yun Che nodded expressionlessly, and just as he was about to walk away, he paused.

Wait, did he smell something strange just now?

The oval pupils in the cinnabar eyes moved slightly, and Yun Che squinted to look over. However, as a snake demon, his eyesight was too poor, and he could only see two blurry figures.

Over there, Bai Zichen’s heart trembled when he saw Yun Che. He quickened his pace and hurried away with Ji Xingchun.

Yun Che yawned again and shrugged indifferently: ‘Forget it, it’s none of my business.’

•=|=•

Bai Zichen was immersed in his new friendship, feeling very happy:

Look! He made friends with his own abilities!

It’s just that this should be a perfect day, but there are always some things that spoil the fun. For example, today the demons in the zoo seemed to have strange expressions when looking at him.

Huang Jing kept sniffing around with his dog nose, and Yun Che squinted and looked at him as if he saw a snake growing two big hairy legs.

As for Bai Wei, the bird, he went even further!

As soon as Bai Zichen saw him today, Bai Wei laughed so hard that he fell backwards. His gesture was so exaggerated that it made the demon worry that he might get a stitch in the side from laughing!!

After Bai Wei finally finished laughing, he asked Bai Zichen: “Xiao Bai, why did you give Xiao Ji the bracelet?”

Bai Zichen waited for Bai Wei to finish laughing before he replied weakly, “It’s just an apology gift…”

For some reason, this sentence tickled Bai Wei’s funny bone. In the end, the other party touched Bai Zichen’s head with an expression full of pity and told him to leave.

Bai Zichen felt a little aggrieved, but the reason for his aggrieved feeling was that Bai Wei’s human form was so short that Bai Zichen had to lower himself when he touched his head!

This scheming titmouse must be playing a trick on him!

The above is fine, when Bai Zichen left Bai Wei’s office, he saw Hei Jin looking at him with a disapproving expression.

Hei Jin can be said to be the most reliable demon in the zoo. When Bai Wei saw this kind of look, he almost thought that he had done something bad again at some point, and the whole bird felt guilty.

But if you think about it, he has been with Ji Xingchun all morning! And he had been working hard!!

Immediately, Bai Zichen glared back with confidence.

Hei Jin: ………

Closing his eyes, the mature and steady horse demon recalled Bai Wei’s previous evaluation of Bai Zichen, that suppression would only cause a rebellious mentality.

So Hei Jin organized his words and said in a more tactful way:

“When you were in the tribe, your parents should have shown you some stories about transsexuals falling in love.”

Bai Zichen: “I’ve seen it, they all have a bad ending.” He was crying loudly at that time.

Hei Jin pushed his glasses and said, “These stories are more or less based on cases that have happened in reality. Humans and demons have different paths, and it is difficult for them to have a good ending together… Anyway, think about it more.”

Bai Zichen: “Ah???”

Why did he understand every word Hei Jin said, but couldn’t understand when they were put together??

Since there was no solution, Bai Zichen simply stopped thinking about it, because he would face another huge challenge next.

In the afternoon, he and Ji Xingchun are going to Black Tiger Garden.

Although he reconciled with Ji Xingchun and became good friends, Bai Zichen’s psychological trauma about the little tiger cub could not be eliminated for a while, and he was too proud to tell Ji Xingchun that he was afraid of a tiger demon cub…

In short, the consequence of being too concerned about face is to suffer in life.

Ji Xingchun listened to Bai Zichen’s heartbeat and naturally knew most of his feelings, but he still felt a little confused.

Is Bei Ming really that scary? No, he is a cub?

When they arrived at the Black Tiger Garden, Bai Zichen consciously shrank behind the young man before Ji Xingchun could speak. Although he looked tall in human form, he seemed to have lost all his temperament at this moment.

Seeing Bai Zichen’s appearance, given Ji Xingchun’s personality, it was naturally not easy for him to force him to contact the little tiger.

After thinking about it, Ji Xingchun simply asked Bai Zichen to help him, and he only needed to move around the periphery of the park throughout the process.

Ji Xingchun’s idea was a good one. At least Bai Zichen felt relieved when he heard it, and he became more active in doing things than before.

When the young man stepped into the Black Tiger Garden, he saw Bei Ming suddenly rushing towards him at a speed different from before!

Ji Xingchun’s first reaction was that Bei Ming was very happy to see him, so he came over to greet him. Then he realized that the other party’s target seemed to be… not him? ?

The black little tiger ran like a whirlwind. Bei Ming passed Ji Xingchun and headed straight for the white peacock demon who was providing support behind him!!

Bai Zichen was terrified: Don’t come over here!

As the demon king, Bei Ming had five senses that are more acute than ordinary demons, so when Ji Xingchun approached, he naturally detected the strong bird smell on the human!

Looking more closely, he saw the feather of that silly bird clearly visible on Ji Xingchun’s wrist!!

At that time, Bei Ming was completely shocked!

When he got a feather from Bai Zichen, why didn’t he just give it to Ji Xingchun? Of course, he didn’t like the strong bird smell on it.

Bei Ming held onto that piece all day long until it was covered with his own scent, and now, Ji Xingchun is actually wearing that silly bird’s hair with him!!

All of a sudden, all the aura he left behind was dispersed.

How could the little tiger, who had finally found a way to mark the human, be willing to accept this?

It is one thing for the human to have the smell of birds on him, and it will disappear after a few days, but what really killed Bei Ming was Bai Zichen’s act of giving the feather to Ji Xingchun!

Although there are many branches of the demon race, among the vast majority of bird demons, giving their feathers to other objects often had only one meaning:

It was to express that you are pursuing the other person and hope that the other person can become your spouse.

Any adult bird demon would know this. Even a demon from another race like him knows it. How could Bai Zichen not know it?!

It was obviously intentional!

This stupid bird either had bad intentions towards the breeder, or it is holding a grudge against him for having its “feathers” stolen before and is using this method to disgust him!

Bai Zichen had been so well protected by his parents in the clan that he didn’t even know the common sense of courtship. If he knew what Bei Ming thought of him, he would probably just howl to the sky:

I am so wronged!!!
