After chatting for a while, Chen Shi decided to take Cynthia and Steven to see Professor Oak first.
Since he had brought guests here, he ought to let Professor Oak know.
But shortly after they entered the house, just as they were about to head to the laboratory out back to find Professor Oak, a lazy voice drifted down from upstairs.
"Little Gary, where's Dragon Grandpa's food?"
The moment Gary heard that voice, his little face scrunched up in obvious reluctance.
Still, apparently for some special reason, Gary called back, "Coming, Dragon Grandpa! I'll bring it right up!"
With that, Gary was about to run off, but Chen Shi caught hold of him and asked in confusion:

"And it eats a ton, too! It's ridiculously picky about the food."
"If I don't feed it, it beats me up, and Grandpa won't do anything about it. These past two days have been torture."
"Uncle Chen, I can't talk anymore. I have to hurry and get that dragon's food ready, or it'll complain if I'm late."
With that, Gary hurried away, presumably to prepare food for the dragon.

This guy was living that comfortably here?
At that thought, Chen Shi immediately decided to put off seeing Professor Oak and check on
