[PS]: Thank you, classmate Taohua, for the generous donation of 50 yuan. I am extremely grateful~ However, the biggest support for the new book is everyone's continued reading~ Thank you...

After understanding his current strength, Chen Mo returned to the living room.

The little dog adopted from the It's All Good pet store had gradually adapted to its surroundings.

With its alertness decreasing, Chen Mo began to interact with it by offering food.

According to the explanation given by the store clerk, he needed to give the dog a name before feeding it. Calling it by its name before feeding would help it remember.

As Chen Mo fed it small snacks little by little, the dog's wariness towards him also decreased significantly.

At first, when Chen Mo tried to touch it, it would shrink back in fear. Now, he could touch it freely.

However, since Chen Mo had never raised a small animal before, he didn't know how to interact with them to make them fully recognize him as their owner.

In theory, this kind of dog should naturally recognize its owner after a period of time.

But Chen Mo wanted to expedite the process a bit.

He wondered if there was a Superpower that could communicate with animals after the apocalypse. If he could communicate directly, wouldn't it be convenient to make it recognize him?

Chen Mo tried asking the system.

"Is there a Superpower ability related to communicating with animals available in the system store?"

[System prompt: This ability belongs to Superpower and the system does not have a direct sales channel for it. The host needs to obtain it through gift packages.]

"That's so unfair. These gift packages are all random. How can I get it?"

[System prompt: The system suggests that the host exchange for the skill 'Telepathic Communication.' Using this skill should achieve the purpose of communicating with animals.]

"Wow, why didn't you say so earlier? This Telepathic Communication is the perfect communication ability, isn't it? It seems more powerful than the Superpower of communicating with animals."

[System prompt: Not exactly. The Telepathic Communication skill can only convey the host's thoughts to the other party through mental power, similar to a one-way expression of communication. It cannot enable direct mutual communication.]

"I see, so after exchanging for this skill, I can make the dog understand clearly what I'm saying, but the dog cannot reply with its thoughts."

[System prompt: That's correct.]

"Then, how much does this skill cost?"

[System prompt: System skills, like Superpower, cannot be directly sold. However, skills can be obtained through perfect completion rewards from daily tasks, which provide a special opportunity to draw skills. Additionally, the host can use this reward opportunity along with enough points to exchange for the desired skill.]

"So, I lose the original reward and have to pay extra to exchange for a specific skill?"

[System prompt: That's correct.]

"That's really shady."

Chen Mo suddenly didn't feel like exchanging anymore.

He touched Xiao Huang's head and said, "Xiao Huang, from now on, I am your owner, understand?"

Clearly, Xiao Huang didn't understand. It raised its confused little head, looked at Chen Mo, and then licked his palm with its tongue.

Chen Mo smiled and patted its head, letting it play nearby.

He took out his phone and searched for information on how to make a dog recognize its owner.

After searching for a while, he found that it takes a long time to cultivate a dog's recognition of its owner.

Chen Mo felt a bit speechless.

It seemed that he still needed to exchange for Telepathic Communication to speed things up?

With nothing else to do, Chen Mo cooked two bowls of noodles in the kitchen.

Before cooking the noodles, he woke up Lin Xinru. After freshening up, Lin Xinru, who had been sleeping all day, finally felt hungry.

Looking at the fried egg and sausage on the table, as well as the steaming hot instant noodles, she immediately came over and happily started eating.

"Are you staying here tonight?" Chen Mo asked with a smile.

"No, I have things to do tomorrow. I'm afraid I'll be too tired if I stay up late and won't have energy for tomorrow," Lin Xinru replied with a smile.

"Do you have something to do? I thought you were free every day."

"What are you talking about? We art students also need to go on field trips. Tomorrow, I'm going to a folk exhibition with my friends."

"Art students are elegant," Chen Mo said with a faint smile.

"Brother Mo, are you going too?"

"Aren't you afraid of people asking about our relationship?" Chen Mo joked.

"What's there to be afraid of? Just say you're my...brother," Lin Xinru emphasized the word "brother."

"I have other things to take care of tomorrow, so I can't go."

"Did you take on another part-time job?"

Chen Mo used to do various temporary part-time jobs when he had free time, working to support his studies. So Lin Xinru subconsciously assumed that Chen Mo had taken on another part-time job.

"You could say that. It's a part-time job, and the income is not bad," Chen Mo laughed.

Being Liu Qinlan's boyfriend for a day was indeed a kind of part-time job. The upfront income he received today was worth a lavish meal, not to mention anything else.

"Oh really? Then when you start making money, you have to treat me to something delicious," Lin Xinru said with a smile.

"Can't you be considerate of your brother and treat your brother to something good?"

"But you haven't started making money yet. When my paintings become valuable, I'll treat you to something delicious every day."

"Then I'll probably have to wait until I'm seventy or eighty years old."

"Phew, no need to wait that long. I'll make my debut and reach the peak soon!"

"Then I'll wait to bask in your glory in the future."

After joking for a while, Lin Xinru finished her noodles. She packed up her things and prepared to leave.

"Let me walk you back."

"No need, my dormitory is not far. See you next week. Take care of yourself during this time," Lin Xinru flirtatiously blew a kiss to Chen Mo before leaving.

Chen Mo smiled and said, "Leaving everything else aside, I'm full of energy right now."

Indeed, after merging with the werewolf bloodline, he possessed a super strong physique. Even after a day of activity, his body didn't feel the slightest bit tired.

After seeing Lin Xinru off, Chen Mo played with Xiao Huang for a while at home and then went out again.

He had another part-time job in the evening.

Although he was now financially well-off, he had already taken on the previous part-time jobs, so naturally, he couldn't just skip them.

This part-time job was relatively easy.

He just had to help clean the teahouse.

This teahouse was located on a commercial street near the Magic City University.

It was relatively close to where Chen Mo went to school.

Many students from Magic City University would come here to hang out, so there was a good flow of people.

As promised, Chen Mo arrived at the shop. It was 7 o'clock in the evening.

As soon as he entered the shop, Chen Mo saw a familiar face.

The girl in front of him had a simple ponytail tied at the back of her head.

Her fair skin, delicate pink lips on her tender face, a small delicate nose, and a pair of bright and watery eyes made her look exceptionally bright.

Although her figure seemed a bit thin, she had the right curves in the right places.

It could be seen that she had a good bone structure, and her body proportions were also very good.

However, despite her decent figure and appearance, her dressing style seemed a bit outdated and old-fashioned. All her clothes looked worn out.

"Oh? Xiao Yue, what are you doing here?" Chen Mo asked with a smile, surprised.
