The little ones were happily playing in the yard.

Until Song Fu suddenly said to Song Chiyu, “Little brother, your fur is as long as big brother’s!”

Song Chiyu was a bit stunned. He lowered his head to look at the fur on his own body, then glanced at the other little ones’ fur around him.

“Huh? Which big brother has fur the same length as mine? I don’t think I’ve seen that…”

His big eyes were full of confusion.

Among the little ones in the yard, everyone else had short fur; only he had long fur.

Song Fu circled around Song Chiyu and said, “It’s big brother Song Yiran! Your fur is the same length as big brother Song Yiran’s hair!”

The moment Song Fu said this, it instantly drew the attention of the other little ones around them.

Song Buli was the first to come over. He examined Song Chiyu’s fur carefully.

After a moment, Song Buli came to a conclusion: “It’s true! Little brother Chiyu’s fur is just like big brother’s hair—they’re both long!”

Song Yang also came over to join the excitement. “Wow! Little brother, your fur really is the same length as big brother’s hair!”

The little ones in the yard all gathered around, forming a small circle around Song Chiyu.

It was the first time Song Chiyu had been surrounded by so many little friends, and for a moment, he didn’t know what to do.

“No way… even though my fur is long, big brother Song’s hair is a bit longer.”

Although this was the first time he had met Song Yiran, Song Yiran had left a deep impression on him.

Song Yiran’s hair was very long, tied into a braid.

His own fur was long too, but not as long as Song Yiran’s hair.

However, the little ones around him didn’t pay attention to what he said.

“Little brother Chiyu, do you have some secret for growing long fur? I want long fur too!”

Song Buli was very envious of Song Chiyu’s long fur.

If he could grow long fur as well, he could tie a braid just like big brother!

“Ah? Uh… I don’t really know. My fur has always been this long…”

Song Chiyu couldn’t answer Song Buli’s question. Ever since he could remember, his fur had been this long.

Song Fu, meanwhile, was completely fascinated by the long fur. “Little brother, can you share some of your long fur with me? I want to make a braid too!”

Song Chiyu felt a bit awkward. “…This…”

Song Xiufu couldn’t stand it any longer. He reached out his paw and lightly tapped Song Fu on the forehead.

“Think carefully, little brother. How could the fluff on your body be shared with someone else? You can’t divide this kind of thing!”

Song Fu’s mind finally clicked. He rubbed his forehead a little frustratedly.

Then he shyly apologized to Song Chiyu, “Sorry, little brother, I wasn’t thinking clearly just now.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay,” Song Chiyu smiled.

Song Xianyue wagged her tail curiously and asked, “What kind of person is Brother Song Yiran?”

Song Fu proudly puffed out his chest. “Brother is the best person in the world! The smartest person! The kindest person! The most hardworking person!”

Song Buli joined in. “He gives me hugs, pats my head, and even tells me bedtime stories.”

“He’s very nice to all of us! And the food he makes is super delicious!”

“Brother is the best brother in the world!”

Song Xiufu squinted and said, “Brother is really a great person! He’s gentle and always smiling at us.”

“I really, really like Brother!”

All the compliments had been used up by the other kids, leaving Song Yang at a loss for words. He didn’t know how to praise him.

So he weakly said, “I think so too… Brother is super awesome!”

In the kitchen, Song Yiran was preparing small cookies for the kids.

He picked out some cute molds, like little rabbits and little dogs.

Kids should like cookies in cute shapes, right?

At that moment, the ever-observant Xiao Zhong’er raised a question.

“Would it be weird if animal-shaped kids eat animal-shaped cookies?”

Song Yiran had never thought about this before. “Ah… you might have a point there.”

“Then should we make human-shaped cookies for the kids?”

Xiao Zhong’er shook his head. “Wouldn’t that feel weird when you eat them yourself?”

“…That’s true. Then what about flower-shaped cookies?”

“That’s good! And flowers are really cute!” Xiao Zhong’er raised both hands in approval.

So Song Yiran switched the molds to flower shapes.

The cookie dough pressed into flower molds looked a bit like the little red flowers given by kindergarten teachers.

He then placed the cookies in the oven.

While waiting for the cookies to bake, Song Yiran contacted the renovation company that had previously refurbished the nursery.

He planned to expand the nursery.

Originally, four kids crowded into one dorm room, which was just manageable.

But now, with so many kids, he couldn’t bear to have them all cramped in the small dorm.

He planned to give each kid a separate room, including the two eggs still in the incubator.

He also couldn’t forget Xiao Zhong’er’s room.

He had already picked out a suitable plan from the options provided by the renovation company.

The biggest problem now was the land.

This time, he needed not only to expand the rooms but also the entire nursery.

The kids were still small, so the current nursery space was enough for them to play.

But as they grew, the nursery grounds would become insufficient.

He still didn’t understand what it was about the interstellar genes, but the kids were incredibly soft and adorable when young. Tiny and super cute.

Yet as they aged, they grew into sizes that even he couldn’t hope to keep up with.

He remembered the last mission—Song Buli grew huge, reaching a full five meters.

The other kids had also grown very large.

Even Song Yang had grown enormous. Normally, an adult ermine isn’t that big.

Yet Song Yang grew to three meters and was very sturdy.

Fortunately, as the kids grew, they could control their size, mostly staying at normal dimensions.

To ensure the kids would have enough space when older, Song Yiran spent a fortune buying the land surrounding the nursery.

He ordered the most suitable renovation plan, which was fast, non-toxic, and environmentally safe.

He scheduled the expansion with the company: starting at 5 PM today, to be finished by 8 PM.

Of course, the price was eye-popping, with seven zeros tacked onto the end.

In the yard, the kids gathered under the cherry blossom tree, admiring Song Yinyun perched above.

“Wow! You’re amazing! You can climb so high!”

“Awesome!”

Song Yinyun was skilled at climbing and quickly reached the treetop.

He lay atop the branch, feeling the breeze, tail swinging lazily in the air.

Seeing this, Song Xianyue wanted to climb too, and Song Yuexin was eager as well.

Song Xiufu’s quick reflexes grabbed Song Yuexin.

Song Buli ran over to stop Song Xianyue, but it was too late.

Song Xianyue happily wagged her tail and leapt at the tree trunk.

Then she got stuck—neither able to go up nor down.

“Wuwuwu! What do I do? I can’t get down…”

Her claws were embedded in the trunk, and she couldn’t move.

Song Yinyun, perched above, immediately climbed down.

He tried to rescue Song Xianyue, but a miscalculated push embedded his own claws in the tree as well.

Now both kids were stuck.

Song Fu found the scene eerily familiar; he and Song Buli had gotten stuck like this before.

Song Xiufu comforted them skillfully: “Little brothers Yinyun and Xianyue, don’t be afraid! Big brother will come to save you soon!”

Song Buli turned to fetch Song Yiran for help.

At that moment, Song Yiran happened to be carrying a tray of freshly baked cookies toward them.

Seeing the familiar scene, he felt a little dazed.

What day was it today? Why did history always feel so similar?

Xiao Zhong’er, ever observant, took the tray from Song Yiran.

With his hands free, Song Yiran quickly ran to the cherry blossom tree and lifted Song Xianyue and Song Yinyun down.

And so another nail-trimming session began in the yard.

Song Yiran trimmed the nails of all the kids who hadn’t had theirs done yet.

He also gave them a safety lesson.

“First, climbing trees is fine. But you must be capable of climbing. Otherwise, you need an adult present!”

Song Yiran kept a stern face, emphasizing the seriousness.

“We understand…”

“Second, don’t stick your head or any part of your body into strange places. Do you know why Song Fu has no fur on his head and neck?”

Upon hearing this, the other kids looked at Song Fu curiously.

Song Xianyue tilted her head. “Is it because Brother Song Fu was born bald?”

Song Fu immediately protested: “No way! My fur is very thick! I just… just…”

Song Yinyun thought for a moment. This must relate to the safety advice just given.

“Did Brother Song Fu stick his head in a weird place before?” he guessed.

Song Yiran nodded. “Exactly. Song Fu got his head stuck in a chair. To free him, the chair had to be sawed off.”

“And his fur on the head got cut off too.”

“His neck was slightly injured at the time, so we had to shave the fur there to apply medicine.”

Song Fu lowered his head to hide his embarrassment.

Song Yiran remained serious. “So everyone understands? Don’t stick your head or body into strange spots.”

“Song Fu was lucky; his fur will grow back over time.”

“But in worse cases, you could get hurt.”

“We understand!” the kids all nodded.

Among them, Song Chiyu was the most serious.

He loved his fur and couldn’t imagine ever losing it.

He looked at Song Fu’s bare head and neck with sympathy.

He would never become like Song Fu!

Song Yiran nodded in satisfaction—good, the kids understood!

Xiao Zhong’er flew over with the tray.

Song Yiran took it from him and handed out cookies to each kid.

“Sweeties, these are cookies baked by Brother for you! Cute flower-shaped cookies!”

He smiled, giving each kid three cookies.

Finally, it was time for him and Xiao Zhong’er. He gave each of them five cookies.

Xiao Zhong’er felt flattered and whispered to Song Yiran, “Isn’t this a bit… unfair?”

“We’re adults. Adults should eat a bit more than kids!”

Song Yiran winked slyly at Xiao Zhong’er with his right eye.
