The old man said, "Don't worry. Look, those feathers are all clean, no blood at all—that means no injuries. And it's parrot molting season now, so losing some feathers isn't unusual."

Shen Luo, anxious as he was, had completely forgotten about that.

Not wanting to stay any longer, Shen Luo told the old man that Big Horn would come by often to visit the little parrot, asking for some understanding. After the old man agreed, Shen Luo hurriedly took Big Horn and left.

On the way, Shen Luo kept nagging Big Horn, "Think about it—your kid's on someone else's turf. If you don't get along with them and even start fights, what do you think will happen when you're not around? They'll take it out on your kid every day! How are you so dense you don't get that?"

Big Horn stood by the steering wheel, swaying with the car's movements, blinking his little eyes as he listened.

Shen Luo didn't know if he really understood, but he just let it go.

Back at the hospital, Big Horn flew straight to the birdcage stand where Big Beauty was perched. Soon, Big Beauty started helping Big Horn preen his feathers, looking completely content. Shen Luo watched them and could only sigh.

With two little parrots sent off, only one was left. Shen Luo didn't plan to send that one away and kept it with Big Horn and Big Beauty as a comfort for them.

Shen Luo went to check on Qiuqiu's kittens. The little kittens were at the cutest stage—eyes open but still watery and foggy. Their fur was getting clearer, the black rings around their eyes more distinct, the funny eyebrows more defined. One kitten's face was clean, with a patch of black fur on its back—what it would look like grown up, no one knew yet.

The last kitten inherited Qiuqiu's fur volume and would definitely be long-haired, with a grayish-yellow coat, different from Qiuqiu's ginger color. Such a strange thing.

The two orphaned kittens, cared for carefully by Shen Luo and Wang Wei, had passed the danger of dying young. They crawled and rolled around their nest every day, which was pretty entertaining. Shen Luo noticed Qiuqiu seemed quite interested in the kittens, so he put them in Qiuqiu's nest—only to be thrown out by Ah Chou.

Ah Chou was smart, but though Qiuqiu was shy, she was kind and a new mom. Seeing the two kittens without a mother, she went to their nest to feed them herself. Ah Chou couldn't stop her, and sometimes Shen Luo felt Ah Chou was a bit helpless too. After picking up Qiuqiu's scent, the kittens became even more loved by her, and Ah Chou wasn't so hostile anymore. The two little kittens finally accepted Qiuqiu as their godmom, with plenty of milk to drink. This eased Shen Luo a lot.

Not long after, Wang Bo told Shen Luo, "Boss, I found out Mengmeng's pregnant."

Shen Luo stumbled and blurted out, "Whose?"

Wang Bo sighed, "Boss, how should I know? I'm not watching them all day."

Shen Luo knew that was fair, but he worried. If it was Duoduo's, with Duoduo's goofy personality, what would happen? If it was Brother Pi's, then it'd be a mixed breed—would Duoduo be cuckolded? After all, Mengmeng was the one Duoduo brought home, everyone recognized her as Duoduo's wife!

What a mess!

Suddenly, Shen Luo felt his hospital was like a complicated old manor from ancient times—so many complex relationships!

But that wasn't all. Wang Bo then told Shen Luo, "Ah Fei's pregnant too."

Shen Luo: ...

"Whose?" Seriously, Shen Luo respected whoever pulled that off—Ah Fei was the toughest cat in the hospital!

Wang Bo guessed, "Probably Dumb Egg's."

Other cats couldn't get close to Ah Fei, but the silly Dumb Egg was always circling around her. Surprisingly, Ah Fei didn't push him away.

Shen Luo thought it was quite likely too.

Thinking about it, spring wasn't over yet. Animals chasing the last days of spring, acting on instinct—it made sense.

Even the two dog couples Shen Luo helped set up were already pregnant. Now Shen Luo felt like he had some special ability.

Though the pets kept getting pregnant one after another, Shen Luo was in a good mood. Humming, he refilled the food in the hamster and rabbit cages and sprinkled some cat and dog food in their bowls. When he looked up, a shy figure stood there, eyes fixed on the hamster cage food.

Shen Luo didn't expect such an uninvited guest—a little squirrel!

Some people kept squirrels as pets, but they were rare. Shen Luo guessed this one came from Yujin River Park. It looked so greedy it didn't even fear the cats nearby.

Shen Luo gave it a few corn kernels. The little squirrel actually took one and stuffed it into its mouth, eating it. After finishing one, it grabbed another, unlike hamsters that stuff their cheeks full all at once.

After eating, the little guy slipped away through the door crack. Shen Luo found it amusing but didn't think much of it.

But what Shen Luo hadn't expected was that over the next few days, the little squirrel started showing up like clockwork, begging for food on schedule. Even more impressively, it somehow always knew whether it had gotten more or less than usual that day—if it got a generous portion, it would hunker down and munch away happily; if the portion was small, it would flat-out refuse to eat. Instead, it would sit there glaring at him, glaring and glaring, until he added enough to meet its expectations

The little guy was practically enlightened at this point.

But such a little squirrel was quite fun. After begging for food a few days, it even let Shen Luo touch its fluffy tail—though that privilege was only for Shen Luo who fed it; no one else got to pet the tail.

Whenever strangers appeared at the hospital, the squirrel would quickly find a spot to hide, and its speed rivaled Qiuqiu, who'd been in the hospital for a whole year.

Seeing the squirrel scurry away, Shen Luo stood up and saw Li Jinzhu enter with a stranger.

Baby came for a routine checkup, usually Li Jinzhu and King Kong would come along—but who was this man?

Li Jinzhu introduced him, "This is Weiran's cousin, Zhu Yunfeng. Weiran can't come, so she sent him to help look after things."

Shen Luo nodded and said, "You can go to Wang Bo's place then."

He thought to himself, Weiran really had a lot of relatives. Last time, her cousin's brat had turned Baobao into a colorful dog painting; this time, her cousin was sending someone over for the pregnancy checkup.

But having lots of relatives was one thing—having them with all sorts of ideas was another.
