After saving a stray cat after school, he unexpectedly became the "Chosen One by Cats" and was forced to take on the mission of guarding the gates of hell. Yun Jian's heart rejected it....
When Kong Xiuwen returned to the lounge, he looked relatively calm, as if he was not affected by Li Hua and Tang Aibai's secret discussion of their private affairs. He just walked to the balcony and sat down, taking the little orange cat in the cat bed into his arms.
The little orange cat yawned lazily, woke up slowly, turned over in Kong Xiuwen's arms, raised his head and looked at him, dazedly: "When did you come back?"
"Just now," Kong Xiuwen pursed his lips, lowered his eyes and looked at Daju, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Daju, do you like living with me?"
Daju tilted his head, a little dazed for a moment: "Huh?"
Kong Xiuwen: "I mean, if you are willing to be adopted by me."
I didn't expect Kong Xiuwen to bring this up so directly. Daju's pupils trembled, his tail hair stood up subconsciously, and he lowered his head to lick his paws awkwardly. Then he remembered to pretend that he didn't know anything and asked, "You want to adopt me?"
Kong Xiuwen lowered his head and rubbed his nose in embarrassment. Obviously, he was also embarrassed by this topic. He cleared his throat and said, "I do have this idea. Of course, even if there is no adoption relationship between us, I welcome you. This is not an either-or request, but a proposal to deepen our relationship."
Daju scratched his ear.
If it was a day ago, he would have rejected Kong Xiuwen without hesitation. After all, the little orange cat was just a vest that could be sacrificed at any time. A promise that would accompany him for almost a lifetime was too heavy for him, and it was not fair to others either.
But now, considering Kong Xiuwen's physical and mental condition, perhaps it would be better for him to have someone accompany him, at least it would give him a reason to leave the battlefield alive.
...
...
"Let me confirm this," he said to the cat toy in his mind, "the lifespan of the vest should be about the same as my lifespan, right? If I agree to Kong Xiuwen, I will definitely not be able to abandon Daju's vest in the future."
[Who are you looking down on? This is a body made from the fragments of the Cat God's flesh!]
Cat Toy purred proudly.
[The power of the gods is eternal and will never dissipate unless it is injured.]
Daju was relieved and had made a decision.
The little orange cat jumped out from Kong Xiuwen's lap, rushed into the bathroom, changed back into human form, changed clothes, and ran back to him.
"You have to promise me one thing," Daju said with a stern face. He stood in front of Kong Xiuwen and looked up at him, holding out a finger. "Just one thing."
"What's the matter?" Kong Xiuwen squatted down and looked at him at eye level, and asked cautiously. After thinking for a moment, he added, "Unlimited snacks are not allowed."
Daju could hardly hold back his serious expression.
He patted his face, trying to imitate Kong Xiuwen's usual oppressive look, and put his hands on his hips: "I won't ask for such a thing! My request is that you use your superpowers as little as possible in the future, and go to the East Palace Research Team for a physical examination every month. You can't refuse my healing ability - stay healthy so you can keep a cat! Cats need to be kept for a very long time!"
Kong Xiuwen laughed.
"I will try my best," he touched Daju's head and said gently, "Don't worry, I have saved up some wealth over the years, and I will definitely be able to support you."
The little orange cat shyly tilted its head and rubbed Kong Xiuwen's hand, then grabbed it and pulled him out, impatiently saying, "Such an important matter deserves an ice cream feast! Let's go!"
Indulgently letting the child drag him out the door, Kong Xiuwen walked to the hall, picked up the greedy little orange cat that was rushing straight to the ice cream machine, and took him to the dessert stand: "Eat some cake to fill your stomach first."
Little orange cat: "Meow?!"
…
Yun Jian's identity requires learning, the identity of the tabby cat requires night patrols, and even the ragdoll cat has to work in the cat cafe to be cute. Yun Jian is very busy every day. After deciding to hand Daju over to Kong Xiuwen to raise, he no longer cared about this matter and still let Daju stay in the medical room every day to use his healing ability.
The only impact of this incident on him was that Kong Xiuwen finally agreed to let him have a physical examination - although the poor results made the little orange cat stand on the pillow angrily and meow loudly at Kong Xiuwen for a long time before poking his wrist with the tip of its tail to help him treat it.
But Kong Xiuwen obviously didn't think so.
Two days later, Li Hua, who had just finished his night patrol, was about to go to the restaurant for dinner. He turned around and saw Kong Xiuwen walking towards him.
He quickly lowered his head and stroked his beautiful silver-gray tail, confirming that he was indeed in the vest of a tabby cat. Then he stood at attention and saluted respectfully: "Captain Kong."
Kong Xiuwen nodded, but did not leave. Instead, he stopped in front of Li Hua, cleared his throat, and said a little embarrassedly: "You are Daju's cousin. I want to ask for your opinion on my adoption of Daju."
Li Hua: "Don't worry, I have no objection."
If he had any objections, he would have rejected it through Daju long ago. There was no need to drag it out to the point where Daju's cousin spoke up.
Kong Xiuwen raised his eyebrows slightly.
When Luo Bozi mentioned this, Li Hua was very resistant. Kong Xiuwen didn't expect that he would agree so easily now. But after thinking about it, he thought that it was probably Daju who talked about this with Li Hua, so he didn't ask any more questions, but there was a little more smile in his eyes.
"Then let's discuss the adoption ceremony?" he continued, pulling out a stack of documents from his sleeve. "My idea is that in addition to applying for the adoption certificate, half of the property under my name will also be transferred to Daju. It just so happens that I have a property in Sufang, which can be directly transferred to Daju's name. It will be convenient for him to live there in the future..."
The poor tabby cat was stunned by the long list of money, real estate, and super-powerful materials.
God has mercy on him, he is still a poor high school student who needs to save money to feed Ragdoll Cat! Although the salary of Tabby Cat is quite high, it is all stored in the bank card and has never been withdrawn. This kind of small amount of money that needs to be reported to the organization is not suitable for his main body and other vests.
Decisively blocking the cat toy's scream in his mind [So rich! We're rich!], he waved his hand in panic to interrupt Kong Xiuwen: "Don't, don't be so grand! Uh, well, since you want to adopt Daju, why don't you follow the rules of our hometown?"
Kong Xiuwen paused, and felt that it was more appropriate to respect Daju's hometown, so he stopped talking and signaled Lihua to continue.
"The rules in our hometown are," the detached brain turned quickly, trying to find a reason, "that is, uh, prepare a suitable nest, there must be a toilet, there must be enough toys and food, and go to the hospital for physical examinations and vaccinations. Nothing else is needed, just give him enough patience and company. "
Kong Xiuwen thought for a moment, and felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't remember what it was. He went over Li Hua's request in his mind and said carefully: "I will ask Director Luo to change to a larger lounge, and I will take Daju to choose a suitable one. As for the physical examination, the Donggong research team has already examined Daju - well, does your hometown have any special requirements for the bathroom?"
Li Hua said weakly: "Good ventilation, can it disperse the smell?"
The sense of déjà vu was getting stronger and stronger. Kong Xiuwen frowned, feeling that things were not simple.
Tang Aibai, who was watching the fun nearby, asked: "Are you talking about the rules for adopting a cat?"
Ionization: “…”
Ah, discovered.
But in such a short time, he really couldn't come up with a complete set of frugal, simple and reasonable adoption rules!
The cat was angry and held a grudge. The cat decided not to give Tang Aibai any lollipops for the next few days.
Amid Tang Aibai's undisguised laughter, Kong Xiuwen said a few words to Li Hua awkwardly and turned away, as fast as a little squirrel avoiding a fox.
He realized awkwardly that Lihua and Daju were not only cousins, but also the only two cat demons known to exist besides Bu'ou. Although they looked like humans, they could not be seen from a human perspective in many cases.
So, is Daju's understanding of adoption really the same as my understanding? Could it be that he thinks of me as a poop scooper? !
Kong Xiuwen sat in the office, thinking hard, and was troubled for the entire morning. It was not until noon that the little orange cat jumped into his arms and urged him to eat, and then he carried him to the restaurant.
On the way, I touched the little orange cat's beautiful fur that was becoming more and more shiny and smooth, and finally I figured it out.
Since he couldn't tell which was which, he might as well take both! Tomorrow he would take Xiao Daju in cat form to apply for a cat license!
Taking out his phone, he decisively placed an order for the most expensive cat toilet. After thinking about it, he reluctantly clicked to cancel the order and called the Xigong logistics team instead: "I applied for a new lounge, please reserve a few more toilets."
Nishimiya Logistics: "Ah?"
Leave a few more, are you going to stay in the bathroom? !
