Chapter 16

The Adorable Ralts

Wei Xin led Ralts to the dormitory entrance.

Along the way, Wei Xin attracted a lot of attention because he was riding a strangely colored Ralts, but the Ralts was sleeping on Wei Xin's head and didn't move at all.

Therefore, most people consider Ralts to be a pretty bootleg rag doll.

"Brothers, I'm back."

To prevent Ralts from hitting its head, Wei Xin removed Ralts from its head, pushed open the door, and found the dormitory empty except for the computer screen still shining.

They probably went to the restroom to have sex, or maybe they went to the hallway to cosplay as double-barreled gas.

Wei Xin placed the Ralts and other items on the bed, bent down and took out the medical kit that his senior had sold him at the beginning of the semester from under the bed. After blowing off the dust, he took out the alcohol and cotton swabs inside.

After opening the bottle cap and letting the cotton swab absorb the alcohol, Wei Xin casually placed the bottle on the ground.

"Ralu~"

His actions piqued Ralts' curiosity. She jumped off the bed, picked up the alcohol bottle, and sniffed it gently.

"Ralu!"

The pungent smell caused Ralts to scream. She carefully put the bottle down, then threw up her hands and collapsed to the ground.

Wei Xin witnessed this scene.

My adorable Ralts!

Through Ralts's bangs, their eyes met, and then they smiled at the same time.

The burning sensation caused by the alcohol seeping into the wound made Wei Xin frown. Ralts on the ground quickly got up, grabbed Wei Xin's pants, crawled to him, grabbed his hand, looked at the wound, and then looked at Wei Xin's face.

"Ralu~"

Does it hurt a lot?

"It's just a minor injury, nothing to worry about," Wei Xin said.

Although Wei Xin couldn't understand Ralts's words, he roughly knew that Ralts was concerned about him.

As a mood Pokémon, Ralts can sense the emotions of the creatures around it, and is especially sensitive to the emotional changes of its trainers. Its body and behavior are also affected by the trainers' emotions.

They feel his pain, think his thoughts, and love his love—that perfectly describes Ralts and her trainer.

Plants basking in sunlight thrive, and children bathed in love are happy and healthy.

Ralts' growth is influenced by the trainer's mood. Ralts that are frequently exposed to a trainer's cheerful mood will grow to be very beautiful and have better abilities.

So from the moment he accepted Ralts, Wei Xin made a decision: no matter what happens, he should try his best to maintain a positive attitude.

For Ralts, I will go into battle in my Tepig form.

Perhaps because he had used too much force earlier and the wound was too deep, Wei Xin's wound, which had been somewhat healed, started to bleed a few more drops after coming into contact with alcohol.

Seeing this, Ralts became somewhat anxious and turned to look at the bottle of alcohol on the ground.

"Ralts~" Ralts emitted a blue glow as it used its psychic powers on the alcohol.

The alcohol bottle flew into Ralts's arms, and Ralts held the bottle with both hands, trying to pour the entire bottle of alcohol onto Wei Xin's hands.

Silly Chun, what are you doing?

Wei Xin was startled and reached out to pull the alcohol bottle out of Ralts's arms.

"Silly girl, are you trying to get my hand drunk?" Wei Xin gently tapped Ralts' forehead, and then heard Ralts' stomach rumble.

"Are you hungry?"

"Ralts~" Ralts covered her stomach and nodded obediently.

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Wei Xin got up and took out the Moo Moo Milk he brought back from the research institute. Because Moo Moo Milk is very nutritious, it has a short shelf life, at most one week. Moreover, as a baby Pokémon product, it cannot contain any other chemicals.

This is why, despite the Donghuang Alliance's large-scale dairy farms, the price of MooMoo Milk still can't be brought down.

"Alright, Princess, please have your meal."

After warming the milk and confirming that the temperature was suitable, Wei Xin held Ralts in his arms and watched as Ralts held the bottle in its arms and sucked on it contentedly.

Just then, the dormitory door opened, and Li Wei stepped into the dormitory. Pointing to the picture on his phone, he said, "Everyone says that men should have masculinity. This guy who walks around with a pirated doll must be a born love-starved, lonely, academically poor, and a shut-in who hides in the dormitory all day."

Yue Hai stepped into the dormitory and saw Wei Xin holding Ralts in his arms. He turned to Li Wei, who was talking loudly, and said...

"The otaku you're talking about seems to be the number one in the whole school."

"The number one in the whole school, the number one in the whole school isn't that dog Wei Xin... Holy crap, when did you get back?" Then, Li Wei immediately saw Ralts holding a baby bottle in Wei Xin's arms.

"What's that in your arms? It's not Ralts, is it?"

As a rare Pokémon, Ralts will actively stay away from human settlements and rarely appears in front of humans, so even some trainers with considerable wealth find it extremely difficult to obtain a Ralts.

"The color seems a bit off, it's blue, could it be a different color Ralts?" Yue Hai leaned closer to Wei Xin to observe.

Ralts waved to Yue Hai as a gesture of goodwill.

"Oh my, what a cute little guy, and so polite. I have some chocolate here, do you want some?"

"Let me see!" Li Wei also moved closer to Wei Xin, forcing an awkward smile, and waved his finger at Ralts, "Hello, little guy."

Laluras glanced at Li Wei, ignored him, turned over, snuggled into Wei Xin's arms, and continued drinking her milk.

"..." Li Wei's expression fell.

"You know, Ralts only associates with innocent, straightforward people who have a childlike heart. As for you, hehe, even Growlithe ignores you." Wei Xin shrank his neck and teased with a delicate gesture.

"Where am I not innocent, straightforward, and childlike enough?" Li Wei retorted.

[I directly confront those who slander me, and I never speak ill of others behind their backs. Isn't that being straightforward?]

Is it a sign of innocence that I can't solve riddles?

Girls always say I'm childish, but isn't that just having a childlike heart?

You're actually proud of that?

Yue Hai: "Did you choose this Pokémon?"

Wei Xin: "To be precise, she chose me. There's no way around it, her personal charm is undeniable."

After all, the little guy was woken up by my handsome looks.

"Oh, you're getting all vain." Li Wei spat sourly, his gaze falling on a large box of things on Wei Xin's bed.

"What are these? Can I drink this milk?" Li Wei asked, reaching for a bottle of milk.

The imperial relief grain has arrived.

"Hey, that's Little Ralts' stuff, don't touch it. I'll treat the brothers to dinner tonight if necessary," Wei Xin said.

I don't know if there will be disaster relief, but I must kill you, Heshen.

I'm talking about Li Wei, don't get the wrong idea.

"Let's make this clear beforehand, no half-eaten food allowed. It has to be at least Wallace's." Li Wei put the milk back, but his gaze fell on a black card with gold lettering at the bottom of the box.
