“Eeh~”
The warm water flowed through the fur, skimming the skin. The warmth seemed to surge like electric currents—soothing the Flame Fox bathing in it. The creature closed its big seductive eyes and relaxed its tight body, letting out a weak and melodious moan.contemporary romance
“Hiss——”
Not too far away, a girl watched her pet beast being washed and couldn’t help but draw a sharp breath.
She knew better than anyone how aloof her pet was. After forming their contract, it had acted like a young emperor being waited upon. She hadn’t expected this side of it.
The girl couldn’t help but stare at the youth who was holding a showerhead in one hand while steadying the Flame Fox with the other.
At that moment, a thought crossed her mind: “The services at this store are expensive for a reason.”
Xu Ran paid no heed to the Beast Master observing from the sidelines.
Using a skill he’d only recently learned but had already mastered, he gently massaged the Flame Fox, ensuring it was thoroughly wet. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the message only he could see.
[Pleasure Value From Flame Fox +2]
As the pleasure value rolled in, the corners of Xu Ran’s lips lifted slightly and his actions became even more gentle and meticulous.
More gentle actions elicited a sensation of comfort, akin to electric currents, across the Flame Fox’s body.

The messages continuously popping up only made Xu Ran’s smile brighter.
This was just the beginning.
Already so pleased?
After thoroughly dampening the fur, he took out an oil-removing product and applied it to the Flame Fox’s oily spots like the chin. By gently massaging, he made sure that the product reached deep into the roots of the fur.
“Eeh~~”
The oil-prone areas were precisely where the Flame Fox’s scent glands were located, and they were much more sensitive. Even the slightest stimulation could send a tingling sensation through its body, as though electricity was coursing through it. The sound of pleasure involuntarily came out from its throat. It lay lazily on the care platform, unwilling to move.

Noticing that the single value had more than doubled, Xu Ran’s gaze towards the Flame Fox became more affectionate within the focus.
It was like looking at a money-printing machine.
After a thorough massage, he picked up the showerhead again and gently rinsed the sebum removal product from the Flame Fox’s fur while it was still purring.
The Flame Fox turned its body in satisfaction.
The excess oil on its fur always made it uncomfortable. Now it felt much fresher and lighter, almost as if it were floating.
After de-oiling, it was time for cleansing.
Xu Ran applied the foam from the shampoo evenly onto the Flame Fox’s body, then used a bit of force for localized scrubbing, allowing the cleansing effects of the rich foam to reach the root of every single hair and follicle.
The Flame Fox’s squinted eyes suddenly widened.
The pressure that reached deep into its follicles and the perfectly adjusted kneading brought an unprecedented level of comfort, as though tiny electric currents were originating from each follicle and spreading throughout its body. It felt increasingly lighter as if it was about to fly.
A sound it couldn’t suppress slipped from its throat.
“Eeh~~~”

Seeing the increasing pleasure values, Xu Ran looked at the Flame Fox with heartfelt affection.
The girl nearby gradually blushed.
Why does her pet beast sound so strange?!
Why does the boss look at her pet beast so strangely?!
She couldn’t help but cover her eyes, only to peek through her fingers restlessly.
So strange!!!

“We look forward to your next visit!”
Xu Ran waved to the customer who was leaving the store.
“Hmm…”
Su Xiaoxiao, with a baffled look on her face, hummed a few times while holding her Flame Fox. It looked completely rejuvenated. Its red fur shimmered like satin reflecting sunlight.
She was utterly stunned today.
“Ying~”
The Flame Fox lifted its head from Su Xiaoxiao’s shoulder, eyeing the increasingly distant shop with a sense of longing and reluctance to part.
As the customer left, the smile on Xu Ran’s face became more pronounced.
The delight came from the new lines of text that appeared before his eyes.

[Novice Task 1: First Cleaning (Completed)
Task description: Please start business as the host and complete one session of pet beast cleaning and caring
Task Reward: 1 System Skill Blind Box, System Upgrade Experience +50]
[Click to receive task reward]
“Finally completed the task.” Xu Ran muttered and chose to receive the reward without hesitation.
A blind box, resembling a holographic projection, slowly opened before his eyes, bursting with dazzling light.
As his vision was flooded with light, his thoughts began to drift.
Xu Ran was not from this world.
Just a few hours ago, he transmigrated and was bound to a system.
However, his system… was somewhat hard to describe.
This so-called “Pet Beast Fosterage System” didn’t even have a reply function, and just by its name, it had no prestige.
If it weren’t for the system gifting him a Pet Beast Foster Shop right at the start, he would have added more complaints.
This world was filled with transcendent powers. Animals and plants had the chance to metamorphose from ordinary beings into Transcendent Beings, thereby obtaining strange abilities.
A portion of the humans, considered as the lucky ones with corresponding talents, can contract with Transcendent Beings through meditation and controlling them in battle, becoming Beast Masters.
Transcendent Beings bound by the Beast Master Contract were referred to as pet beasts.
On occasions where pet beasts were needed, Beast Masters could summon them instantly through contracts. However, when not in use, providing accommodation for these pet beasts became a problem.
Normally, Beast Masters lived together with their pet beasts. But, there always were Beast Masters who could not take their pet beasts with them due to various reasons and had to resort to fosterage.
The Pet Beast Foster Shop was a place that catered to Beast Masters by taking care of their pet beasts.
Besides fosterage, there were often other pet beast-related services offered in the shop.
After acquiring the background of this world from the memories of its previous owner, Xu Ran deeply suspected that he was being pranked.
In a world such as this, shouldn’t the matching system be something fierce that can add points or teach pet beast skills? What the heck was this Pet Beast Fosterage System?
The dazzling light from the blind box’s opening had dispersed at this moment.
New text appeared.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the System Skill [Plucking Fur].]
[[Plucking Fur] is a cleaning and caring bound skill. The host can use it during the process of cleaning and caring for a pet beast and there is a chance to obtain the target pet beast’s skill. The host can then teach the acquired pet beast skill to the host’s own contracted pet beast.]
Xu Ran gaped at the skill introduction before him. After a long moment, he muttered.
“System, I wrongly accused you!”
