Hearing this, Andrew nodded in agreement, then seemed to recall something and asked hesitantly, "Then Ye Mu..."
Cecy looked up, a flash of sharp light in his eyes. "Do your best."
Andrew chuckled, "Understood."

Cecy walked through the dim corridor towards Lochi's room. His long robe trailed across the floor without a sound. The door opened, and his gaze immediately softened.
Closing the door softly, Cecy walked to the bedside and sat down. He looked at Lochi, who was fast asleep on the bed, and a smile spread across his eyes.
Today must have been the most tiring day of Lochi's life. The little cub's limbs trembled slightly in his sleep from exhaustion. His face, half-propped on the pillow, showed a bit of soft flesh, and he was even letting out tiny snores.
Cecy reached out and pulled the quilt up for Lochi, sighing softly.
He knew very well that today had been a bit too difficult for Lochi, but he had no choice.
After a long while, a sigh echoed in the room: "Luo Luo, don't blame your father."

The chubby cub wasn't one to hold grudges. In fact, if he hadn't felt so sore the next day, he would have almost forgotten that he had attended classes all day.
Ye Mu climbed onto the bed and sat next to Lochi, pinching his nose.
Lochi, unable to breathe, shook his head groggily and switched to breathing through his mouth.
Ye Mu let out a laugh, reached out, and pulled Lochi up. "Lochi, wake up, you have class today."
In his dazed state, Lochi seemed to hear a thunderclap and wanted to stay asleep even more. He even pulled the quilt over his head.
Resigned, Ye Mu dragged Lochi up again. After finally rousing him, he took the sleepy Lochi to wash up.
Lochi closed his eyes, letting Ye Mu place the wet towel on his face, his voice still groggy from sleep. "What class is it today?"
Ye Mu wiped Lochi's face and said, "I think it's Teacher Bosiah's class."
Lochi shook his head, opened his eyes, and brushed his teeth, his mouth full of foam. "Uncle Bosiah, he should be teaching about mental power."
Ye Mu put his hands down and returned the towel. "Mental power?"
Lochi nodded, spitting out some foam. "Yes, Uncle Bosiah's mental power is used with incredible skill. I heard he's second to none in the entire galaxy."
Ye Mu's eyes lit up. For this human prodigy, words like "strongest in the galaxy" were undeniably very attractive.
Lochi, seeing Ye Mu's thoughts, turned his eyes and said, "Do you want to learn more skills from Uncle Bosiah?"
Ye Mu, not understanding, replied, "Of course."
Lochi smiled with the satisfaction of seeing a promising student. "Then, as the host, I'll do my duty as a host. Today, you go to class. I was too tired yesterday... oh no, I gained a lot. Today I'll digest yesterday's content in my room."
Ye Mu looked at Lochi deeply, making the latter's heart creep out before he pulled at the corner of his mouth. "You... wishful thinking."
Lochi: "..." Not cute at all.
He huffed and stormed out, leaving Ye Mu behind. Ye Mu chuckled and chased after him, shouting, "Let's go eat breakfast!"
"Of course I know!"
666 chuckled, "I say, do you have any ambition? Ye Mu, a human cub, doesn't find attending class tiring. Are you ashamed to let him go to class alone?"
Lochi pouted, "Are you meeting me for the first time? I'm only four years old. Is it easy for me to attend class every day?"
666 crossed his legs, "If you ask me, you're just lazy. I've told you long ago not to slack off."
Lochi sighed, "Alas, to be honest, it's not that I want to slack off, but it seems I really am in a human body. I trained all day yesterday and made no progress at all."
666 was uncharacteristically silent. "Hmm... this... that..."
Lochi: "..."
666 awkwardly changed the subject, "Oh, you'll definitely learn a lot with Bosiah."
Lochi: "...Fine."
