[BL] Reborn As A Hamster For 233 Days

Chapter 12 - Chairman, You're So Overbearing

When Yan Jin entered his bedroom, he found himself in pitch-black darkness, which surprised him.

He wasn’t sure why his bedroom did not have a single light switch that was on.

Could it be that he had switched them off when he left?

However, Yan Jin wasn’t bothered with such small matters, he switched on the ceiling chandelier after he entered.

The scene before him was truly one of a kind.

The gray hamster was squatting on the table, curling himself up into a gray-looking furry ball, with his two little paws continuously rubbing his eyes making that area swollen red. On closer inspection, he could even see crystal-like water droplets on the short white fur that covered his chest.

“Fishy?”

Yan Jin put aside the things in his hand and quickened his pace towards Xiao Yu.

He watched for a while then shifted the chair closer and sat down, stretching one of his fingers to poke Xiao Yu’s sorrowful-looking back.

Xiao Yu turned around and slapped away Yan Jin’s finger.

Squeak—

What are you looking at, never seen a person (hamster) crying before?

If Yan Jin really heard Xiao Yu’s inner voice, he would have replied – he really hadn’t seen a crying hamster before.

Too bad Yan Jin did not hear that, so he tried to come up with a reason in his heart: “What’s wrong, you... miss home?”

That sounded a bit weird.

Xiao Yu turned around and faced his butt toward Yan Jin. The latter continued to poke the hamster relentlessly.

“Could it be that you miss your ex-owner?”

Yan Jin continued to guess at an answer and came up with ‘he must be missing that tomato’ as a conclusion.

Speaking about the tomato, Xiao Yu suddenly recalled that Yan Jin had used the first tomato to stew that fish. The second one disappeared on that night itself, Xiao Yu was sure that he saw the shadow of that tomato in the tomato soup he had for dinner. However, he wasn’t bothered about it.

It was just a tomato, nothing to be bothered about.

Xiao Yu felt irritated, he just wanted his hamster self to be left alone in peace and quiet.

If he was a normal hamster, he would not have even cared about Yan Jin. But now that he was not just a normal hamster, not only did he not want to interact with Yan Jin, he wanted to stomp him to death.

Something was placed on the table that made a clear tumbling sound.

Then Xiao Yu’s entire body was picked up and was forcefully turned around.

“This one won’t disappear anymore.” Yan Jin laughed.

It was a plump red tomato that had few green leaves on the stalk. Not even five centimeters in width, it was small yet adorable.

Xiao Yu wipe his tears away and stretched his paws to touch it.

It was fake, made out of soft clay.

Xiao Yu’s ability to identify any kind of material was close to the pinnacle of perfection. And that ability was developed because he would always subconsciously try and determine the material of any ornament he saw, even if it was a cheapskate fake tomato.

But Xiao Yu was indeed comforted by the uniquely fake, soft clay tomato.

Perhaps this tomato reminded Xiao Yu that those things belonged to the past. The current him was already “dead”; he was no longer a human. Plus, instead of shedding tears and being depressed over it, why not find a way to remind ‘himself’ of Lin Zhou’s ambitious, scheming heart?
