Chapter 838: She Didn’t Like Obedient Cats
Editor: Henyee Translations
Ever since she transmigrated, Gu Yang had been extremely obedient. She had never been to an internet cafe, bar, or nightclub.
But she knew what an internet cafe looked like.
This Grass-Raising Internet Cafe was very different from what she remembered.
She had noticed the flowers and plants at the door; many were expensive varieties, casually placed as if using antiques for daily cutlery.
Inside the internet cafe, there were also many flowers and plants, indicating the owner was knowledgeable about plants and gardening.
Gu Yang walked towards the bar counter.
The boss was a scruffy young man tending to the flowers and plants. The regular customers called him Boss Cao.
Gu Yang wore a mask since this internet cafe was near Hua University and many alumni frequented it. She didn’t want to be recognized.
“Boss Cao, how much for an hour?”
Gu Yang addressed Cao Cuo just like the others.
Cao Cuo didn’t even look up, still busy with the flowers. “Four yuan an hour. There are discounts for top-up members. Check the sign next to you.”
Only then did Gu Yang notice the sign partially covered by the plants.
As she took out her phone to scan the QR code for payment, she realized most of the QR code was obscured by the fat orange cat’s round body.
She reached out to move the orange cat.
“Meow!”
The fat orange cat woke up and let out a cry.
“Don’t touch it!”
Cao Cuo suddenly raised his head. His deep eyes were sharp, and his voice was clear and pleasant to the ears.
He sounded much younger than he looked.
Gu Yang was stroking the fat orange cat’s fur. The cat nestled in her arms, eyes narrowing in comfort, and kept rubbing its head against her.
Gu Yang hugged the orange cat and looked at him with her bright eyes, puzzled. “What’s wrong?”
Cao Cuo looked at the familiar scene and was stunned for a moment.
A regular customer who came over to pay the bill said, “Little girl, this is your first time at Boss Cao’s internet cafe, right? That cat is Boss Cao’s little ancestor.”
“It used to be a wild cat that had been abused. It was wild and difficult to tame, not close to anyone except Boss Cao.”
“In the past, customers tried to pet it because it looked cute, but they all got scratched, causing Boss Cao to lose a lot of money.”
“After that, Boss Cao declared that no one was allowed to touch his cat. Otherwise, they would bear the consequences.”
“I didn’t expect it to be so obedient to you.”
The regular customer clicked his tongue and walked away.
Gu Yang put the orange cat down. “Sorry, I didn’t know your rules.”
Cao Cuo’s eyes, hidden by his hair, were unreadable. He took the fat orange cat from her and said calmly, “It’s okay.”
Gu Yang scanned the QR code and went to the agreed location to meet Yan Xi.
Cao Cuo kept staring at her back.
The orange cat in his arms struggled and made a lot of noise, not as quiet and obedient as before.
It even opened its mouth and bit his hand.
There was no bleeding, but there were teeth marks.
Only when Cao Cuo felt the pain did he realize this wasn’t a dream.
He gently stroked the orange cat’s fur and whispered, “She doesn’t like cats that are disobedient.”
The orange cat instantly became as quiet as a mouse.
Yan Xi was waiting for Gu Yang in the internet cafe. When Gu Yang found her, she was playing a game.
It was the Legend of Gods, the same game Big Shot Sister used to play.
Having seen Big Shot Sister and Gu Pei play, Gu Yang could tell that Yan Xi’s gaming skills were abysmal.
It wasn’t that she lacked talent entirely; she just wasn’t good at fighting at all.
This was the first time Gu Yang had seen someone so bad at gaming. She became interested and watched Yan Xi finish the round from behind, even helping her accumulate some experience.
Yan Xi had died more than 20 times and sabotaged her teammates no less than ten times.
When Yan Xi saw the big “Game Failure” on the screen, she angrily took off her earphones. “F*ck, stupid teammates!”
Gu Yang thought, “…Isn’t she describing herself?”
She then watched helplessly as Yan Xi was reported by her teammates.
The report was successful, and Yan Xi was banned from speaking.
Yan Xi logged out, her record showing all failures.
Gu Yang gasped in amazement.
Yan Xi lay on the table, dispirited. Suddenly, she noticed a shadow and turned around.
Despite the mask covering Gu Yang’s face, Yan Xi instantly recognized her by her distinctive fluffy and thick hair.
