Chapter 39

"Meow~ (Let me see~)" Li Miao stepped on Pei Huai's desk, straddled Pei Huai's wrist and pressed it on, and peeked at the comments on the screen.

And so, this scene appeared.

A fairy cat dressed in a princess dress, with its chubby head, leans close to the screen and watches intently.

Li Miao noticed that everyone was praising his cuteness and saying his dress was pretty, and that they wanted to kiss this adorable little kitten. He felt a surge of pride and was eager to see more comments.

Pei Huai's thumb, which was resting on the screen, stopped sliding down.

Li Miao couldn't wait, so she lifted her mangosteen claw and started touching the phone screen, thinking that she could do it herself.

Suddenly, a deep, amused voice fell from above.

"Miaomiao, are you scrolling through the screen? Can you even understand what the girls online are saying?"

“…Meow.” Li Miao meowed guiltily, her body frozen in place.

He's actually stooped so low that he's completely forgotten to be careful not to expose his identity.

Li Miao pretended not to understand Pei Huai's words, stretched out her little paws and slapped the phone screen twice, then turned her head and gently nibbled on the back of Pei Huai's hand, pretending that she was just a kitten who didn't understand what he was saying.

Watching the little guy's slightly contrived act, Pei Huai chuckled, vigorously ruffled the cat's hair, and continued scrolling through the comments section, selecting some comments left by netizens to read to Miao Miao.

【Miaomiao? What a lovely name for a baby! Miaomiao is the cutest cat in the world!】

Looking forward to more fairy-tale dresses.

[I'll go prepare a pink burlap sack now; Miaomiao will definitely love it.]

[Damn it, I recognized Miaomiao at a glance as my lost baby, give her back to me 55555]

"Meow~" Li Miao's meow rose in tone, soft and gentle as if she was being affectionate. Pei Huai could tell that Li Miao was happy and pleased with these comments, so he couldn't help but pick her up and kiss her face.

Pei Huai felt something was strange. He knew that Li Miao was Miao Miao, but when facing a cat, he still regarded the kitten as a cute animal.

They don't feel that kissing a kitten is the same as kissing a fairy.

This kiss was entirely the kind of love that comes from loving all things lovely.

For the rest of the time, Pei Huai didn't keep checking his phone to see the video feedback.

Instead, he took out the cat toy he had bought beforehand and played with Miaomiao.

I bought the cat toy from a live stream. The streamer said it was made of ostrich feathers and that their cat toy had high sales and the highest customer repurchase rate. They even promised a money-back guarantee if the cat didn't like it.

Pei Huai used to scoff at this kind of sales pitch, but now he couldn't resist placing an order. What if Miao Miao really likes it?

Pei Huai waved the cat toy in front of Miao Miao.

"Meow~ Aww~ (What's that?)" Li Miao's attention immediately shifted to the cat toy.

The light gray feathers swayed back and forth with Pei Huai's movements.

"Meow~ Awoo~ (How dare you provoke me)" Li Miao stretched out his claws and pounced nimbly. His hunting instincts made him determined to catch the gray bird.

Spinning and leaping, it stretched out its claws and snapped them shut with a loud crack. Several times, Li Miao managed to grab the gray bird's feathers, only to let its prey escape again.

Li Miao refused to admit defeat, holding his breath and becoming even more ferocious in his pursuit of the bird. He opened his mouth, revealing sharp teeth, and with a howl, killed the bird that was arrogantly flying in front of him with a single blow.

Pei Huai was absolutely charmed by Miao Miao's cuteness. Even while she was hunting earnestly in her princess dress, she was so sweet and soft.

"Miaomiao, let go." Pei Huai tugged at the cat toy in his hand.

"Meow~ (I won't let go~!)" Li Miao kept gnawing and biting at the gray feathers with her teeth, and she couldn't stop at all.

Not only did it not let go, but it also used its hands, feet, and teeth to kill this arrogant prey. The fallen feathers were scattered everywhere, and the battlefield was a complete mess.

Pei Huai couldn't help but praise the baby for being so amazing.

Li Miao: That's right. Don't you know who he is? He's the tyrant of Lingmao Mountain. Countless birds have died in his beak.

Li Miao was not allowed to reminisce about her glorious achievements from back then.

Taking advantage of Miao Miao's inattention, Pei Huai pulled back the cat toy and began a new round of provocation.

After several rounds of back and forth, Li Miao was exhausted when he finally caught the ostrich feather. He lay on the ground, pressing down on the ostrich feather and biting it, cruelly crushing his prey to pieces, winning a complete victory.

If it wasn't stopped, the cat toy, which had only been used once, would be ruined on the spot.

So Pei Huai took action, picking up Li Miao and putting away the cat toy.

Li Miao's energy was almost completely depleted during the hunt, and her feline instincts were gradually suppressed by human consciousness.

Realizing that the cat toy was just a toy, Li Miao let go and didn't continue dismembering the body.

Watching Miaomiao play with the cat toy, Liang Yixuan and Li Hang felt much more relaxed. Just watching the kittens play was a therapeutic experience for both body and mind.

"Check if the little dress is torn." Pei Huai picked up Miao Miao and looked her over from left to right. He had taken out the cat toy earlier but forgot to take off the kitten's princess dress first before starting to play with it.

"The clothes aren't damaged, Miaomiao is so great." Pei Huai didn't hold back his praise, and Li Miao responded with a couple of sweet, coquettish words.

Liang Yixuan and Li Hang burst out laughing.

Liang Yixuan: "How's the feedback on the video?"

Pei Huai: "Many people are praising Miaomiao for being cute, and the video data seems to be doing quite well."

Pei Huai carried Li Miao back to the stool, and made Miao Miao sit with her back to him, showing her little belly.

I slowly took out a wet wipe and cleaned Miao Miao's paws, which had gotten quite dusty from playing with the cat toy.

The pinkish paw pads were covered in dust, making them look dull and gray.

This kind of dust can be wiped off very easily.

"Meow~" Li Miao sat comfortably while Pei Huai served him and cleaned him up, without making a fuss at all.

I just cleaned one of its paws.

Liang Yixuan: "You can even film a video at this time? Miaomiao is so well-behaved, letting you wipe her feet is just too cute."

Pei Huai turned to look at Liang Yixuan and said, "Is that so?"

However, she immediately turned her head back, preparing to continue carefully wiping Miaomiao's paws.

"Let's take pictures another time. Right now, the important thing is to clean Miaomiao's feet first," Pei Huai said calmly.

If they were to shoot a video, Pei Huai would have to put Miao Miao down, set up the phone camera, and find the right angle, which he didn't want to go through.

"If you can't free your hands, I'll film it for you." Liang Yixuan was happy to record such heartwarming moments, and when he saw beautiful things, he couldn't help but want to film them.

Since Liang Yixuan had already said so, Pei Huai didn't refuse. He just needed to turn around and decide whether to continue wiping the cat's paws or not.

Soon, Pei Huai wiped the remaining three paw pads clean with a wet tissue.

Just as Liang Yixuan was about to finish filming, he saw Pei Huai, who was holding Miaomiao, unable to resist lowering his head and quickly kissing Miaomiao's pink paw pads, and even biting them.

"Meow~ (Eek~)" Li Miao meowed in disgust, looking incredulously at the glistening drool on her paw.

No, why is Pei Huai even stealing kisses from his feet?

That's a total pervert.

"Hiss...no, are you a pervert or not? I'm really impressed by your cat fetish." Liang Yixuan couldn't help but say.

Pei Huai scoffed dismissively; he had no intention of explaining to someone like Liang Yixuan who didn't even own a cat.

Being able to kiss that tiny pink paw pad would make me incredibly happy.

Liang Yixuan could never understand this feeling.

"Okay, I've sent you the video. If you plan to release it later, you can edit it yourself." Liang Yixuan sent the video to Pei Huai, and then asked Pei Huai for the link to the first Miaomiao video.

Pei Huai hadn't used Douyin much before, nor had he specifically registered an account; he would just browse casually without logging in.

Liang Yixuan registered an account a long time ago, but he didn't have Pei Huai's video account.

He occasionally posts videos of his daily life. When he received his college admission notice, he also followed the trend of posting videos online during the college admission period.

Because of the inherent popularity of Peking University and his status as a top student, coupled with his previous posts of travel photos and texts where he didn't show his face but still created a great atmosphere, he has several thousand to nearly ten thousand followers.

"Okay, I'll send it to you right away," Pei Huai said.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Li Hang's excited voice was heard.

“I saw a video of a cat, and the number of likes keeps going up. It’s almost a thousand likes, which means it’s getting a lot of traffic,” Li Hang said. “I’ll give you the video link, but Pei Huai, you don’t need to send it to me.”

“Okay,” Pei Huai said.

"What a coincidence that I managed to find it?" Liang Yixuan was surprised.

Li Hang: "If the school is located, and they are all Peking University, then there will probably be push notifications."

Li Hang: "Damn, so many people are asking if Pei Huai is from Peking University, and some are praising his beautiful fingers, saying that his voice is sexy and pleasant, and that he must be a handsome guy."

Liang Yixuan: "Hahaha, these people guessed pretty accurately."

Liang Yixuan opened the video to read the comments and followed Pei Huai's account.

“Pei Huai, if you occasionally show your face in Miao Miao’s videos in the future, the videos will probably get even more popular.”

We live in an era where looks matter. For a handsome guy like Pei Huai, who is above average and has such a great physique, becoming famous on social media would be very easy.

"Oh." Pei Huai was taking off Miao Miao's skirt, not caring at all about data usage.

Pei Huai's nonchalant reaction seemed perfectly normal to Liang Yixuan.

Neither he nor Pei Huai are short of money. Putting aside Pei Huai, it would be easy for him to become popular on social media.

"Alright, want some snacks?" Pei Huai asked Miao Miao, looking down at her, while casually stroking her fluffy tail with one hand.

"Meow~" Li Miao licked her lips and thought about it seriously.

“Awoo~ (Eat two freeze-dried pills)” Li Miao looked at the freeze-dried bag.

“Okay.” Pei Huai opened the bag, grabbed a handful, and put them in his palm.

She ate two as she was told, and after chewing them all, Li Miao nudged Pei Huai's fingertips with her head to indicate that she was done eating.

"She's being affectionate again." Pei Huai smiled indulgently, his eyes lowered.

"Meow~!" Li Miao cried out angrily.

Why would I act cute?

Those two-legged creatures with fish-like lips don't understand a word.

Li Miao simply turned away from Pei Huai and rested on the table.

"So you're not eating it after all." Pei Huai's tone was slightly embarrassed.

He temporarily put the leftover freeze-dried food into a separate bag to see if Miaomiao would eat it later.

***

On the other hand, there's a similar local push notification mechanism.

In addition, Liang Yixuan and Pei Qingsong have interacted on their video accounts.

Li Xuan also stumbled upon Miao Miao's video so unexpectedly.

At first, he couldn't believe that the cat wearing a pink princess dress, wiggling and acting cute, was his younger brother.

But who else could this adorable creamy-white long-haired cat be but his brother?

Hearing Pei Huai's voice again confirmed my suspicions.

Seeing Pei Huai say in the comments that Miao Miao is his baby, Li Xuan, who was sitting in his seat, felt like his world was collapsing!!!
