Chapter 16: The Shangguan Family’s Veterinarian

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Li Yi seemed to have discovered that the reason these ferocious Beasts were being so timid had something to do with Garfield.

In order to confirm this theory, he went on to the next room.

He discovered that even the powerful Beasts kept here could feel fear. As they curled up in the corner, their eyes stared at Garfield.

Li Yi was a little surprised. He had no idea Garfield, a little Orange Cat, to possess such a terrifying aura.

This simply boggled his mind.

Garfield was definitely no ordinary kitten. It must have some unknown secret.

But at this point, there was no way to know what that secret was.

He looked at the monster pet behind the glass. It was a Rockplate Frog the size of an ox. Hovering over its head was a Status that read [ Fear ] .

Li Yi reached his hand out, ready to extract the Status Shard.

While he was collecting Status Shards earlier, he had discovered that he did not need to use his hands to really grab it.

As long as he oriented his hands towards the Shard, he could absorb it.

Sure enough, the Shard flew right off the Rockplate Frog toward him.

He successfully obtained a Fear Status Fragment.

The Rockplate Frog, temporarily relieved of its cowardly state, finally had the courage to approach them.

When Garfield saw that it had the gall to approach it, it immediately opened its mouth and let out a sharp snort!

“Ha!!!”

When the Rockplate Frog heard this sound, the Fear Status instantly reappeared above its head. It leapt back.

When Bai Youyun saw this, she could not help but exclaim in surprise, “Garfield’s shriek is so scary, it scared it into the corner.”

“No, I think it was quite cute,” Lin Ya said with a smile.

The three of them did not make much of Garfield. They thought the snort was just some kind of coincidence.

They did not believe that a kitten could scare these high-level monster pets to the point of trembling.

“It seems that these pet beasts are not in good condition today.”

Butler Liu said. He continued forward.

Before long they had left the Beast exhibition area.

The next Li Yi wanted to see was the ancient books exhibition.

There were over a hundred bookshelves here, each packed densely with all kinds of ancient books.

Naturally, most of them were medical books. Very useful for Li Yi.

Veterinarians who had a chance to study here all become top-notch doctors when they leave.

Now that Li Yi had VIP status, he could freely study the books here. His medical skills were about to shoot through the roof.

He took a few books from the bookshelf that looked interesting. After flipping through them briefly, he was shocked.

This continuous reading made him feel intoxicated. This place was simply heaven!

While he was mesmerized by the books, a few figures approached him.

Butler Liu hurriedly went over and said, “Mr. Shangguan, you’re here…”

Butler Liu said in surprise.

The middle-aged man in front of him was wearing a simple robe and had long, flowing hair.

His thin face had some stubble on it.

This man was the master of the Shangguan family, Shangguan Yi.

“I heard Miss Bai was paying a visit, so I wanted to come here to welcome her.”

“It just so happens that I heard about the situation earlier involving Miss Bai and the Fire Sparrow. I want to meet this doctor who cured it.”

Hearing this, Li Yi put down a book and walked over.

“Mr. Shangguan, I am the doctor who cured it.”

Shangguan Yi sized up Li Yi and sighed, “You are so young. You will achieve very big things in the future!”

“Thank you for the compliment…”

At that time, Butler Liu suddenly thought of something and quickly said, “Mr. Shangguan, doesn’t your family have a vacancy for a monster pet veterinarian? Why don’t you let Li Yi do it?”

Hearing this suggestion, Shangguan Yi became interested. He asked, “Dr. Li, are you interested in working for me?”

Li Yi Thought for a moment. If he followed the Shangguan family, his future would definitely be boundless!

However, he didn’t want to give up on the hospital that he had been running for so long.

That was his life’s work…

Seeing Li Yi’s hesitation, Shangguan Yi added, “If you come to work for me, I will give you 100,000 yuan a month. On top of that, everything in this museum will be at your disposal.”

Hearing this, Li Yi was very tempted!

100,000 yuan a month was no small amount. That was more than a million yuan a year. That was more money than he had ever earned since opening his hosptial!

More importantly, he would be able to make use of the museum!

With treatment like this, Li Yi had almost no reason to refuse!

“Can I ask about the working hours?”

Shangguan Yi continued, “The working hours are not fixed. You can do your own thing, but if I need your help, you must come as soon as possible.”

Hearing this, Li Yi was even more tempted. The pay was high, the treatment was good and it wouldn’t be a waste of his time.

“Well, I’ll think about it…” Naturally cautious, Li Yi did not agree immediately.

“That’s alright. Take your time and think about it. Let me know when you have made a decision” Shangguan Yi showed a gentle smile.

Just then, a girl standing next to Shangguan Yi showed a disgusted expression.

“Mr. Shangguan, his medical skills still need to be proven. You can’t hire him so suddenly,” she said with a serious expression.

This girl had long pink hair, a pretty face and fair skin.

Li Yi looked at the name tag on her chest. Her name was Jiang Ying.

This name seemed a little familiar to him. If he remembered correctly, she used to work in the hospital across the street from his house.

That was the Zhengyang Pet Treatment Center. It was also his sworn enemy.

He never would have guessed that she was qualified to be a doctor for Shangguan Yi.

Now Jiang Ying was one of the Shangguan family’s household pet veterinarians.

Of course, she still worked in the Zhengyang Pet Treatment Center, so she was still his sworn enemy.

Jiang Ying glanced at Li Yi and continued, “Mr. Shangguan, why don’t you let me test his medical skills and make sure that he is a professional before letting him join us?”

Then, Jiang Ying looked at Shangguan Yi, hoping that he would agree.

Shangguan Yi thought for a moment and nodded slightly. “Sure, then give him a test question. He can join us only if he passes.”

Jiang Ying gave a smug smile, then looked at Li Yi.

She wasn’t about to let Li Yi join them and steal her job!

Yi’s Beast Hall stole her hospital’s customers. She couldn’t just let him steal her job too!

She had already thought of a thorny problem that would definitely be too difficult for Li Yi!

“In the monster pet exhibition area, there is an exhibition cabinet with only one stone in it.”

“However, though it looks like a stone, it’s actually a bug-type Beast. A few years ago, the museum bought this insect from overseas. After that, it spun itself into a stone cocoon, where it now rests in a long slumber.”

“If you can wake it up, then that would prove you are indeed a highly skilled veterinarian!”
