Chapter 255 - 255 248 Does this kind of accidental event
?Chapter 255: Chapter 248 Does this kind of accidental event happen often? Chapter 255: Chapter 248 Does this kind of accidental event happen often? Just as Zheng Tan thought, the red rat looked indeed clever and cute, but behind that facade lay a fierce nature and, fundamentally, a tendency to bully the weak and fear the strong.
The way those researchers treated the red rat made it clear that, in this period, it had not encountered any threat at all. It got the best food and drink, even the wood for gnawing was custom made, with hardness meticulously calculated and chosen from several types suitable for its teeth grinding needs. Even after killing two of Dean Xie’s carefully bred lab mice, no one punished it; instead, they contacted other research institutes with their lab mice to discuss countermeasures, implementing a “sustainable development” strategy; for all you know, it might even start receiving international aid. Anyway, the red rat’s future looked prosperous.
Zheng Tan heard that any new decisions made in the institute regarding this rat had to be through a meeting and approved by several authoritative figures before implementation. Because everything was done in favor of the creature, it had grown sassy lately. Mr. Jiao said it would even bare its teeth directly at the scientific researchers, not giving anyone face, always causing trouble with impunity, playing in the sink if it didn’t finish drinking water. Now it even became picky with food, demanding everything fresh, threatening starvation otherwise, though it never truly succeeded in fasting. The caretakers always found new ways to pamper it. Zheng Tan saw two recent photos taken by Mr. Jiao; the red rat had grown a size larger and noticeably chubbier than when Zheng Tan first caught it.
Some rodents have to scuttle about in the sewers scavenging for food, like house mice, while others are lavishly pampered, like this red rat. It’s enough to infuriate one rat with envy towards the other.
Once, when Zheng Tan went to Mr. Jiao’s office to climb through a window, he happened to run into Dean Xie, who was about to drive out. But instead of scolding him, Dean Xie gave Zheng Tan a very warm smile.
After returning home, Zheng Tan got the answer from Mr. Jiao.
Recently, Dean Xie had reaped a lot of projects and support from various quarters thanks to the red rat, and Mr. Jiao was one of the beneficiaries. Although the red rat was no longer considered Mr. Jiao’s “private property,” Mr. Jiao had also benefited greatly. With the consent of a few bigwigs, the “Associate” title in his “Associate Professor” designation was about to be dropped quickly. Moreover, Mr. Jiao found it much easier to apply for projects now. As the saying goes, having connections in high places makes things easier. Sometimes, success depends just on a word from some people, and even in this circle that is considered a “sanctuary” and wears a halo, changes had been quietly taking place. Therefore, when Yuan Zhiyi came over once, she couldn’t help but express to Mr. Jiao, “Your cat has been quite a catch, damn worth it!”
Every time Yuan Zhiyi visited the Jiao family, she made it a point to worship Heitan, which she explained was not about paying respects to a cat, but to the God of Wealth.
