Chapter Sixty-Five p1
In Yu Zhao’s impression, only dogs were cuddly and affectionate, while cats were mostly arrogant, alert, and wary, rejecting human closeness and affection, true ‘masters’.
But the cat in front of her clearly broke her stereotype. Not only was it sweet-looking, but its temper was also unusually good. It wanted kisses, hugs, and belly rubs from her, a human it had known for less than a day, which really surprised her.
Colleagues also gathered around and exclaimed: “As expected of a Ragdoll, the most human-friendly cat, it’s already lying down and letting itself be petted?“
“So cute! Are those blue eyes the starry sky and the vast sea?“
“The fluff around its neck looks so soft.“
“Manager Zhao isn’t out yet, right? Let me pet the kitty!“
A colleague reached out with a hee hee smile, wanting to touch the Ragdoll’s soft white fur. The next second, however, the well-behaved cat rolled over, avoided her hand, and accurately bumped into Yu Zhao.
Yu Zhao’s eyelid twitched. Seeing it being so headstrong, she reached out in time and grabbed its soft little body, lest it bump its little head silly sooner or later.
As soon as the Ragdoll cat was in her hands, it immediately calmed down, its paws hugging her fingers affectionately, its fluffy tail wagging, making Yu Zhao’s heart itch.
The colleague reluctantly retracted her hand, smacked her lips, and said: “I thought this cat had a good temper, so it turns out it has taken a fancy to you.“
“Good heavens, are you catnip incarnate?“
“Wuwuwu, I also want the master’s favor!“
The colleagues wailed, successfully alarming their boss.
Manager Zhao thought something big had happened. After coming out, she saw her little princess snuggling in an employee’s arms, and couldn’t help but smile: “Did Taotao cause you trouble? Sigh, I didn’t want to bring it out originally, but there’s no one at home, and I was afraid it would be lonely, so I could only bring it to the company.“
As she spoke, she reached out, wanting to pick up the Ragdoll.
Yu Zhao stood still, suppressing the reluctance and resistance in her heart, and let Manager Zhao do it.
As soon as she touched the cat’s small body, the Ragdoll meowed, hugging Yu Zhao’s hand and refusing to leave.
Manager Zhao exclaimed, and said with a smile: “You bad kitty, you were clinging to me at home before, and after only one day out, you’re clinging to someone else.“
Yu Zhao looked down at the cat, and found that the Ragdoll was also looking up at her, its blue eyes watery, extremely endearing.
Yu Zhao’s head felt hot from being stared at, and she actually felt that this cat was also reluctant to part with her, and couldn’t help but say: “Manager Zhao, if you want to sell this cat, how much do you plan to sell it for?“
As soon as she spoke, her expression froze, because she remembered that not only did buying a cat cost money, but taking care of a cat cost even more money. With the Ragdoll’s princess-like appearance and posture, wouldn’t it need the best cat food and toys?
She didn’t have the money to raise this Ragdoll at all. Instead of saving up to buy it and then letting it go hungry, it was better to let it live a carefree life with Manager Zhao.
Yu Zhao gave up the love in her heart, and calmly came to this conclusion, then added: “I’m just asking casually, Manager, don’t take it to heart.“
Manager Zhao smiled: “It’s okay, every time I bring Taotao out, someone asks about this. But I don’t plan to sell Taotao. She’s a cat I carefully chose, the most beautiful little princess in the group of cats, and I plan to raise her for the rest of her life, how can I easily sell her?“
Her words fell, and not only did Yu Zhao give up her last thought, but even Bo Chi was dumbfounded.
She couldn’t be with Yu Zhao, then, then wasn’t this a long-distance relationship!
Oh no, she wasn’t even human now, so… this was bestiality!
Oh my god, this was too exciting.
Bo Chi was carried away by Manager Zhao in a daze. When she was lying on Manager Zhao’s shoulder, her blue eyes were still looking at Yu Zhao pitifully.
Yu Zhao lowered her eyes, no longer looking at this little cat that was stirring her heart. She returned to her workstation and started working again.
Manager Zhao had her own separate office, but because the kitten was too conspicuous in the room, and she was afraid that the leader would see it at a glance, she put the cat outside first.
Now that it was almost closing time, she didn’t care anymore, held the kitty and combed its fur for a while, and then played with it.
Bo Chi was listless, and didn’t go catch anything to play with. Manager Zhao thought it was tired, and didn’t take it seriously. Seeing that it was almost time, she put it in the cat carrier and left the room.
It was bustling outside, and a group of people were packing up and getting off work. Bo Chi curled up in the carrier, her little face against the front of the cat carrier, and through the transparent film, she saw Yu Zhao, who was still working.
People were coming and going, and only she continued to type on the computer, unmoving. Bo Chi couldn’t help but meow twice in concern, wanting to ask if she wasn’t planning to take a lunch break or eat.
Unfortunately, no one noticed its meows, and no one cared whether Yu Zhao ate or not. Everyone dispersed and left, and Manager Zhao also drove home.
Manager Zhao’s name was Zhao You. She was a capable worker, and at a young age, she already owned this three-bedroom apartment in City A. The room was decorated in a minimalist style, with a post-modern ascetic feel. The surroundings were well-organized and very clean.
She walked to the sofa, opened the cat carrier, and Bo Chi jumped out without her needing to carry her.
Zhao You smiled and touched her: “Why are you so well-behaved today? Didn’t you always want to act coquettishly with Mommy before?“
Bo Chi clearly knew that she was her cat now, and should be closer to her.
However, she still felt that she was human in her bones, and really couldn’t stand being so intimate with another person.
Facing Zhao You’s outstretched hand, Bo Chi hesitated for two seconds, and finally lowered her head to avoid it, and lightly jumped to the side, turning her cat butt towards her.
Zhao You then noticed its resistance, and just as she was wondering, the phone rang.
She picked it up and looked at it, then, ignoring the kitty, answered the phone sweetly: “Hello, I’m home, I received the gift, did you make that bracelet yourself? It’s so ugly and cute… Huh? You bought it? You don’t have enough living expenses now?“
“Borrowing money from me? Sure, how much do you want to borrow?” Zhao You’s tone was gentle, and then, as if hearing something, she said in surprise: “Ten thousand? Just as repayment for the bracelet? But, but were you ripped off by the seller? Is that bracelet worth that much money… No, no, I’m not unwilling to lend it to you, okay, okay, don’t be angry, I’ll transfer the money to you now.“
She hurriedly hung up the phone, transferred ten thousand yuan, and after waiting for a long time without receiving a reply, she couldn’t help but look up with some unease, and casually picked up the Ragdoll cat that was curiously pacing over, and said in a confused tone: “Is he angry? Should I take a few days off and fly to his city to coax him?“
The Ragdoll meowed twice, but Zhao You didn’t understand, and didn’t take it to heart. She raised her wrist and looked at the ugly and cute bracelet she had just put on, and became even more puzzled: “Is this really worth ten thousand? Do I not understand modern aesthetics anymore?“
Bo Chi stretched out her paw and pressed her hand, looked carefully for a long time, and found that the bracelet was crudely made, the materials were inferior, and it was surprisingly ugly. She wouldn’t even want it if it was given to her for free. Thinking of the person on the phone constantly asking to borrow money, she immediately understood and became angry, and meowed at Zhao You for a long time.
This time, Zhao You understood.
It seemed that her cat was scolding her…
Zhao You couldn’t help but smile bitterly, buried her face in the cat’s soft little body, and muttered: “Indeed, I’m in the rising stage of my career now, I can’t just run around… Sigh, Ah Lei specially remembered my birthday, and carefully prepared a birthday gift for me, but I don’t have time to go and thank him… Why don’t I transfer some more money to him? He’s a student, and hasn’t started working yet, he definitely doesn’t have enough money… Hey? Taotao, why are you hitting me? Little kitty, you’re not allowed to hit people.“
Bo Chi had been through so many worlds, how could she not see that Zhao You was blinded by love? Hearing that this silly girl was still going to give money to that man, she immediately launched a series of cat punches in frustration.
Zhao You thought she was playing, and played with her for a long time, and finally fell down laughing, holding her stomach.
Bo Chi bristled angrily, and went to hit her phone again, anyway, she wouldn’t give Zhao You a chance to transfer money.
After playing around for a long time, Zhao You could only put this matter aside, rolled up her sleeves, and went to prepare lunch.
Bo Chi struggled to push the phone into the gap of the sofa, then jumped onto the wardrobe with satisfaction, and took the opportunity to receive the plot of this world.
The protagonists of this world were not Yu Zhao, but Zhao You and Mei Lei. Zhao You was a rich and beautiful older sister, her only flaw was that she lacked love. Mei Lei was a sunny male college student, who didn’t know anything but sweet talk to deceive the hearts of innocent girls.
During the five years they were together, Mei Lei had taken a total of 500,000 yuan from Zhao You. Just as he was preparing to fake a terminal illness and trick Zhao You into selling her house, an accident ended his life, and he really went to the morgue.
Bo Chi had never seen such a realistic novel before. Coupled with the faint sadness in the text, she was almost lowered in IQ and immersed in this stupid sadness – fortunately, the fragrant cat food pulled her back to reality.
Zhao You made her cat food first, put the bowl on the ground, and then turned to make her own lunch.
Bo Chi had to admit that she was really a good owner.
It was a pity that Bo Chi wasn’t a pure cat, she had a wife!
Bo Chi jumped to the ground, biting the chicken breast and chewing, while opening Yu Zhao’s task panel in her mind.
[Yu Zhao (The Unnamed Workaholic Who Died Suddenly)]
[Task: Live to ninety-nine.]
Bo Chi: “…”
Ah, was the Yu Zhao in this world so miserable?
It was fine that she was not found in the plot, but how did she die suddenly?
Bo Chi was deeply shocked, and after hurriedly finishing her meal, she went to find Zhao You, urging her to go to the company.
Zhao You didn’t understand, and after washing the dishes, she reached out to pet her.
Bo Chi didn’t have time to run away, and was grabbed by her big tail and had her back touched. Then, when the other party touched her belly, she angrily kicked her with her hind legs, meowing while kicking, with the posture of a loyal and fierce cat.
Zhao You tsked, poked her little head, and smiled: “After going out for a while, you’ve learned to scold people? How can a little princess curse all day? Quickly become a sweet little darling again.“
Bo Chi snorted coldly, struggled out of her arms with difficulty, and simply got into the cat carrier, meowing at her.
Zhao You said fondly: “So eager to go to work with Mommy? You’re really Mommy’s most considerate little princess! Come, give Mommy a kiss.“
The Ragdoll hurriedly retracted its head, and covered its head with its paws, not giving her any chance to take advantage.
Zhao You was amused, and took Bo Chi into the car without a care.
When they arrived at the company, she opened the cat carrier, and saw her good boy rush out of the office without looking back, come to her employee’s legs, and rub against them coquettishly. Zhao You’s smile froze, and she suddenly realized… What considerate little princess, this was clearly a Ragdoll trying to cuckold her!
Zhao You was so angry that she laughed. Seeing Yu Zhao’s indifference, she simply let this little white-eyed wolf(ungrateful person) hit a wall.
She returned to her own office. Bo Chi, after she left, quickly shook her fur and stood up, walked lightly to the corner, lowered her head and picked up the salted fish toy, used the chair to jump onto the table, and put the salted fish in front of Yu Zhao.
Yu Zhao hadn’t been looking at it. Now that the salted fish was covering her keyboard, she reached out and moved the salted fish to the side.
Bo Chi stretched out her fluffy cat paw and pushed the salted fish onto the keyboard again.
The two of them were like playing Tai Chi, going back and forth for a long time. A passing colleague saw this and couldn’t help but stop and say: “Cats don’t usually give people things, it’s sharing its food with you now, just accept it.“
Yu Zhao’s expression was flat: “No, there must be its saliva on the salted fish.“
Bo Chi: “???”
Good heavens, so she was disgusted by her?
Pfft, you’re the one with saliva, she wasn’t stupid, how could she really eat salted fish!
The colleague laughed heartily, patted Yu Zhao’s shoulder, and said: “Just treat it as accepting its good intentions, anyway, you can’t really eat this toy… Oh right, you haven’t eaten lunch yet, have you?“
Bo Chi, who was listening on the side, was moved to tears.
Finally, someone understood her good intentions!
Quick, quick, quick! Persuade this workaholic who died suddenly to go eat!
Yu Zhao shook her head: “I haven’t eaten, but I’m not hungry.“
The colleague disagreed: “You have to eat something even if you’re not hungry, otherwise the money you earn won’t be enough for your medical expenses. And look how much Taotao cares about you, she knows you haven’t eaten and specially brought you her food.“
Yu Zhao said helplessly: “How can a cat know these things…“
Bo Chi was unhappy, pushed the salted fish to her again, and said with dead fish eyes: “Meow, meow, meow.“
——Feed me!
Yu Zhao: “…”
The colleague smiled and pulled Yu Zhao up: “Just go, don’t let Taotao worry. If you don’t go eat, I think Taotao will fight with you forever.“
Yu Zhao strangely agreed with these words, sighed, put down her work, and went to the break room to heat up her food.
She wasn’t a local of City A, she simply came here to work hard after graduation because the economy here was developed. She didn’t have her own house either, but rented a cheap apartment with others, and cooked her own meals.
