Chapter 222: Chapter 177: Is it a bit overweight?_1

Feng Yi was genuinely worried that he might have contracted parasites in the swamp.

Wild snakes indeed harbor various parasites, both internal and external, and although Feng Yi did not consider himself a snake, he could take the creatures as a reference.

Before capturing the python, Feng Yi would return to the residential area hotel every day. Only during the last few days did he spend the night in the swamp. As for food, that wasn’t a problem, and he made sure to maintain hygiene when he returned each day.

He didn’t consume any raw food, and he was careful with drinking water in the swamp, using only bottled water he brought or water that had been filtered and boiled. They went into the swamp to catch snakes, not to shoot wilderness survival documentaries, so their material preparation was relatively thorough. If necessary, they could contact related personnel for resupply, though it would require an additional fee.

Therefore, Feng Yi was not worried about internal parasites. What concerned him were external parasites, the kind that could burrow into one’s scales.

There were times when he walked barefoot on the grass, and when he did, his soles had scales with gaps in them as he moved!

Also, when capturing the python, he would unleash his tail, which had splashed in the wild water.

After the python capture, to "fabricate the scene," he plunged into the water again and rolled on the grass.

At that time, he hadn’t checked meticulously until he returned to the hotel to clean up.

He had no apparent bug bites on him, but the parasites might be inconspicuous, or perhaps more obvious on his true form?

However, he didn’t notice anything on his true form, nor did he feel any discomfort.

Feng Yi swung the tip of his tail, his face serious.

Just to be safe, it was best to have a doctor check him out. It was also an opportunity to test the new employee.

When he went downstairs later, Feng Yi’s face showed no trace of his earlier concern about parasites.

Doctor Wu was discussing nutrition with the butler.

Feng Yi looked at Doctor Wu, "Tomorrow is New Year’s Eve. Do you have other plans? If not, why don’t you spend it here with us?"

Doctor Wu accepted the offer. He had usually spent New Year’s Eve busy working; this was the first time in recent years that he could relax and enjoy it.

Feng Yi then talked about Jia, Yi, Bing, and Ding with the butler. He had just asked those four about it.

Bing said that he originally planned to come back tomorrow to spend New Year’s with the butler, arriving in the morning and bringing some fresh ingredients.

Yi had just finished attending a financial circle gathering and had no important plans for tomorrow. Since Feng Yi had returned, he would also come back to celebrate the New Year together.

Jia and Ding were already on the plane returning home. Like Bing, their original plan was to come back and celebrate the New Year together. They might arrive tonight, even earlier than Bing.

Knowing that there was a new colleague, the four were quite excited—

Doctor Wu had finally arrived!

Could they finally prepare the antivenom serum?!!

Since Bing was not home, and considering the butler’s old age, Feng Yi certainly would not let him prepare the meals alone. The butler could manage his own meals, but hosting multiple people was too great a burden.

Feng Yi directly ordered from a well-rated restaurant via a takeaway app.

When the meals arrived, Doctor Wu was taken aback by the table full of dishes. He was about to ask if anyone else would be coming over when he saw the butler bring out two dinner plates and hand him one.

"Separate portions?" Doctor Wu asked.

Feng Yi nodded, gesturing for him and the butler to start dividing, "Whatever you want to eat, and however much, go ahead and split your portions first."

Doctor Wu favored the separate portion system, which made him feel more at ease. Not to mention hygiene and his penchant for cleanliness, eating with Feng Yi required enduring considerable mental pressure! From what he learned, this person had venomous fangs.

Feng Yi controlled himself when eating out, not consuming too much, and was more casual at home. If they were to eat together and Feng Yi carelessly leaked some venom...

At the moment, Doctor Wu did not know the nature of Feng Yi’s venom, so it was safer to be extra cautious.

After dividing his portion, Doctor Wu looked at the remaining food on the table and wondered if it was too much?

Then he realized, after he and the butler took their shares, Feng Yi would take care of the rest.

The butler looked at Feng Yi with a loving expression, "You’ve suffered in Florida!"

"Not at all. Other than being hungry, everything was fine," said Feng Yi.

"You’ve lost weight!"

At least, that was what the butler believed.

Doctor Wu didn’t know much about Feng Yi and couldn’t tell if he really lost weight since his trip to Florida.

After they started eating, the butler spoke less and less. Doctor Wu had many questions, but now didn’t seem to be the right time to speak up—especially considering...

He looked at Feng Yi, who was devouring his meal voraciously.

From a professional perspective, the frequency and quantity of food intake could lead to indigestion and put a heavy burden on the stomach.

However, considering Feng Yi’s special nature and the butler’s loving look that suggested no cause for concern, Doctor Wu kept his thoughts about the eating issue to himself, opting to observe for the time being.

As Feng Yi gradually cleared the table, Doctor Wu got the picture.

The new boss had a huge appetite.

Excellent digestion.

And after finishing, Feng Yi didn’t seem to change much.

For an average person, such a large amount of food would exceed stomach capacity, but Feng Yi not only finished it all but also digested it quickly.

The lack of change was only superficial; internally, the food had already been converted into energy and stored somewhere out of sight or possibly in some specific tissues or organs.

This was a very magical... species.

One that should not be treated by ordinary standards.

Doctor Wu adjusted his mindset.

After the meal, Feng Yi took the doctor to the laboratory.

In the underground medical laboratory, some basic equipment had already been installed. Feng Yi also mentioned the equipment he had just ordered, "Take a look and let me know if you need anything else, which are urgently needed, and which can wait. Organize a document for me."
