Chapter 19

Before going back to her dorm to sleep, Li Miao, who had transformed back into a kitten, sharpened her claws on the metal railing of her bed, muttering, "Catch the mouse, catch the mouse..."

The claws emerging from between the pinkish paw pads were incredibly sharp, gleaming coldly in the darkness.

To do something well, you must first have the right tools.

She had sharp claws, but Li Miao hadn't hunted for a long time. Before, she had at least gone up the mountain with her grandmother to catch wild rabbits and pheasants, but since she focused on studying at Peking University and then went to military training, Li Miao hadn't hunted for a long time.

I don't know if he's still capable.

A few seconds later, Li Miao shook her head violently, asking, "What do you mean, 'can it work' or 'can't it work'?"

He's a very capable and excellent kitten, he'll definitely succeed.

If I really can't catch them, I'll just bribe the cats on the official payroll at Peking University with some canned food and ask them to help me out.

The mention of jars sent a shiver down Li Miao's spine.

He quickly sat up, got out of bed, and checked his pants pocket...

"Silly, silly, how come you still forgot to give the cat treat to your brother?"

Li Miao: o(╥﹏╥)o

"Li Miao?" A deep voice came from the other side.

Pei Huai, who was getting out of bed to go to the bathroom, looked at the silhouette in the dark environment and spoke softly.

By the light of the moon streaming in through the window, Pei Huai could see the outlines of two long, straight lines.

Li Miao wasn't wearing pants; she was wearing a loose T-shirt as pajamas, the hem of which reached her upper thighs, barely covering her pert buttocks.

Without the lights on, it's actually not very clear.

But Pei Huai's eyelids suddenly felt hot, and he immediately lowered his eyes.

“Pei Huai? You’re still awake too?” Li Miao said in a breathy voice, enunciating each word clearly.

"It's almost time to sleep. Get up and go to the bathroom." Pei Huai pressed a button on his phone to turn the screen on, glanced at the time, and saw it was almost 12:30.

"Oh, okay, you go ahead then, I'm going back to sleep." Li Miao put down the trousers she was holding and draped them over the chair.

Right under Pei Huai's nose, he grabbed the iron ladder shared between their beds and climbed back onto the bed step by step.

Throughout the process, although Pei Huai felt an itch in his heart as if he had been scratched by a cat, he still did not deliberately look up at Li Miao.

I walked straight to the balcony, pushed open the door, went out, and entered the bathroom.

***

The results of the school heartthrob poll are out.

Li Miao was already quite good-looking, but he and Pei Huai had different styles of appearance.

Her delicate and beautiful face is more suitable for becoming an idol or a popular celebrity.

The title "King of Peking University" perfectly encapsulates the fantasies of girls about their future boyfriends.

A tall, handsome boy like Pei Huai, with striking features, excellent grades, and a good family background (as evidenced by the brands he usually wears), is more suited to be the school heartthrob.

Pei Huai himself forwarded it to Li Miao to garner votes.

Even the main characters think that Li Miao is more suitable for the position of school heartthrob, so everyone should vote for Li Miao more.

The title of the new Peking University heartthrob has fallen to Li Miao.

Li Miao's popularity soared among the freshmen. Almost every time she walked around the Peking University campus, to the supermarket, the cafeteria, or the sports field, many students recognized her.

I was even more excited when I saw Li Miao's face in real life. She was several times more beautiful than the face with filters that blurred her features.

With Li Miao's looks, entering the entertainment industry would be a game-changer; he truly deserves the title of "school heartthrob."

...

The matter of Li Miao giving Pei Huai a gift should be put on hold for now.

The most important thing right now is that Li Miao has discussed with a senior student about working part-time at a cat cafe.

Li Miao got his hands on the computer, but he wasn't very familiar with how to use it. When he encountered problems he didn't understand, he would ask his roommates, who would help him or explain things to him.

Everything was moving in a positive direction, except that Li Miao didn't have much money left.

I can't always pretend to be stupid and go out to eat with Pei Huai.

Then I ate Pei Huai's big chicken leg.

If Pei Huai knew that Li Miao thought this way, he would definitely comfort her and tell her not to worry about such a small thing.

Mimi Cafe, located outside Kyoto University.

The shop owner, Liang Fei, is not very old; she started her own business less than two years after graduating from university.

She was wearing an adorable uniform from a cat cafe, sitting at the bar interviewing Li Miao.

"You're the Li Miao that Xiao Ya introduced?" Shop owner Liang Fei took a sip of coffee, sizing up Li Miao's looks and figure.

Xiaoya is also a sophomore student who works part-time at Mimi Cafe.

Their café combines a cat café with a sweet and cute style, making it a perfect spot for taking photos.

The main target customer group is girls, especially female students from Peking University and young and beautiful girls from the neighboring Communication University of China and Film Academy.

While female customers come to the store to pet cats and drink coffee, the owner also provides gorgeous and cute clothes for everyone to take photos.

In addition to several female servers, there are also male staff members in the shop, who are mainly responsible for moving goods, making coffee, and baking cakes and desserts.

The store is currently short one server to serve customers.

Liang Fei originally wanted to hire women, but when Xiao Ya recommended men to her, she subconsciously frowned, feeling that it was inappropriate.

But when he saw Li Miao's stunningly beautiful and well-behaved face, he immediately changed his mind.

Looking at Li Miao's figure, with her slim waist and long legs, she would definitely look great in the store's cute uniform...

"Yes, I am Li Miao, hello sister." Li Miao greeted politely.

Liang Fei smiled slightly at Liang Fei's well-behaved and endearing manner of speaking.

Overall, the part-time job opportunity at Zhaolimiao seems alright.

"Are you allergic to cat fur? Do you have experience taking care of cats? Do you know what details to pay attention to when taking care of a cat?" Liang Fei continued the interview assessment.

These questions were practically asking about Li Miao's expertise, and Li Miao answered them all correctly.

"I'm also especially popular with cats. I can even speak cat language and answer some of their little moods." Li Miao boasted and promoted herself, listing all her advantages like beans.

Liang Fei's eyes lit up. Such an unbelievable thing almost made her suspect that Li Miao was a fraudster. These words sounded like a fantasy. Even she, a cat owner and cat lover, could not do such things.

She wanted to see it for herself.

Li Miao didn't try to hide anything, speaking in a high-pitched cat language: "Mi ao~ Mi ao~~ (Hello (*▽｀)ノノ)"

"Muma~ Muma~~ (sticking)"

The cats that were leisurely resting in the shop heard the call and all looked up toward the source of the sound. When Li Miao kindly and gently called out that they wanted to get a sticker, they all obligingly came over.

Countless cats circled around Li Miao's trouser legs. Li Miao kindly squatted down to let the cats get used to his scent, and then began to happily pet them.

The scene is heartwarming and loving.

Liang Fei was dumbfounded; she had truly learned something new.

Seeing that Li Miao could communicate with the shop's most aloof cat so easily, Liang Fei immediately decided to have Li Miao work part-time at the shop.

She told Li Miao the price for the part-time job.

The trial period is 38 yuan per hour for three days.

The trial period fee is 50 yuan per hour.

"If you're okay with wearing the store's uniform, I can give you 68 yuan an hour," Liang Fei said.

“Sure, why can’t I wear a uniform?” Li Miao agreed without hesitation. Of course, she could wear a work uniform.

"Um, is it a uniform like the one I'm wearing? Are you really sure it'll work?" Liang Fei showed it to Li Miao.

Li Miao tilted her head, looking at the shop owner's pretty Lolita-style dress, and asked curiously, "Do you mean that all uniforms are these kinds of pretty dresses with intricate and retro designs?"

"Well, since you're a boy, whether you can accept it or not is up to you." Liang Fei knew this was a bit of a stretch.

Not every boy can accept wearing women's clothing.

But Li Miao is just too cute! For her own selfish reasons, she wants to watch it!

Moreover, such an adorable boy dressed as a woman as a receptionist would definitely attract a lot of young ladies.

"Okay." Li Miao agreed after only a few seconds of hesitation.

It costs 18 yuan more per hour, enough to buy three large chicken drumsticks.

"Okay, it's settled then. Here's my WeChat. Let's add each other first, and we can contact each other via WeChat if anything comes up." After Liang Fei and Li Miao became friends, Liang Fei took out a small dress in size L from the store.

"Then you go try it on first, and I'll see if you can wear size L. If not, I'll buy a size up next time I order."

"Okay." Li Miao took the dress and went to the dressing room to change.

The place looked completely different after I pushed open the door.

The dress accentuated Li Miao's extremely slender waistline, while the crisscrossing straps adorned with bows added to its cuteness. The square neckline revealed the boy's sharp and slender collarbones, and the puffy skirt made Li Miao's long legs appear even whiter and straighter.

A natural-born female body!

Liang Fei was so cute she almost had a nosebleed.

I was dizzy for a while before I came to my senses. I looked so good even without a wig, amazing.

"So pretty, so pretty, so pretty." After finding a good angle, Liang Fei took a few photos and sent them to Li Miao, so that Li Miao could also see what he looked like in a little dress.

"The skirt is a bit short, but I'll lengthen it by two or three sets. If I order more stock later, I'll order your size separately. Your waist is actually very slim, almost the same as most girls'. It's just that you're too tall, and the skirts of the same style are all too short..." Liang Fei became more and more excited as she spoke, already seeing the store's future booming sales.

"By the way, the shop can also include a meal, and you can also have drinks and small cakes if you want."

Upon hearing this, Li Miao's hidden cat ears immediately stood up, and she could even get a meal!

Li Miao received a photo of himself on WeChat, admired it, and thought he looked cute and pretty in his little dress.

Miao Miao has only been in human society for a short time, and as a kitten, she doesn't yet have the strong sense of shame that human men feel when they dress as women.

Wearing a skirt is cooler than wearing pants, and my legs don't feel restricted at all, it's so comfortable.

Seeing how beautiful she looked and being constantly praised by the shop owner, Li Miao felt even more proud.

Sure enough, he was the most beautiful cat wherever he went.

As expected of him, meow~

o(*￣︶￣*)o

Just then, Pei Huai texted him to ask when he would be back and if he wanted to have dinner together.

Li Miao excitedly told Pei Huai that she had passed the part-time job interview.

On the other end, Pei Huai nodded, thinking the salary was acceptable.

Compared to the hourly wages of part-time jobs that don't treat college students like human beings, this is considered a high salary.

Pei Huai actually suggested that Li Miao try tutoring the students.

However, Peking University is full of talented people, and many freshmen want to enter the education and training industry, so they all try to get in. In the early stages, they have to find clients on their own, so the competition is fierce.

It's good to do this part-time job as a temporary measure.

Just as he was thinking this, Pei Huai received three full-body photos in a row.

In the photo, Li Miao is wearing a berry-pink dress and smiling sweetly.

Facing the camera, her amber eyes shone with a brilliance, as if radiating a dazzling, jewel-like light.

The boy is nearly 1.8 meters tall, and when he wears a skirt, it's hard to ignore his legs.

Pei Huai's brain froze for a second, his Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and then he suddenly stood up from the bench and slammed the chair back with a piercing sound.

Liang Yixuan and Li Hang were startled and turned to look at each other, asking what was wrong.

Pei Huai pursed his thin lips, not bothering to answer what his good brother was talking about.

His well-defined knuckles slammed against the screen as he frantically typed:

[It's not like you're talking about working part-time at a cat cafe. Are you sure this part-time job you found is... legitimate?!]
