Is this a chestnut?

When Miao Yuanyuan saw the emaciated cat, she was somewhat frightened. It was too thin, and probably because of its age, it smelled rather unpleasant, just like an old person.

It was decaying, like a leaf about to rot, and had lost a lot of its fur, with some patches of baldness.

Xu Qiaoqiao and Jun Qi brought Chestnut in. The difference between the two sides was too obvious. Chestnut was very polite. He slowly walked towards Miao Yuanyuan and meowed at her very politely.

At the same time, it waved its claws.

Hello, Jun and Qiao's pet owner. Nice to meet you!

Come to think of it, this was the first time he had met Joe's owner. When visiting someone else's home, one should always be polite.

The owner had always taught him this way because he always caused trouble when the owner took him out to visit guests. At that time, he relied on his cute appearance, and the owner couldn't bear to be too harsh on him.

Every time it's all talk and no action, I'd talk for a while and then stop, looking at him helplessly, then I'd play a few rounds of mahjong, and that was the end of it.

Thinking about the past, Chestnut's expression became somewhat dazed again, and he suddenly missed his master even more.

Are you Chestnut?

Miao Yuanyuan blinked her curious big eyes at the slightly disheveled cat and asked.

"Meow."

Chestnut meowed. His eyes were a little cloudy, but he looked quite energetic. The whole cat was full of spirit, except for the unsightly bald patches on his body.

This should mean yes, right?

Miao Yuanyuan guessed in her heart and showed a very bright smile. She had prepared some food in advance, all of which were suitable for chestnuts to eat.

Wow, the pet owner is so thoughtful.

When Xu Qiaoqiao saw that Miao Yuanyuan had actually prepared food for Chestnut, she thought to herself, "I have to say, usually, the cat owner is quite reliable."

"Meow." Jun Qi called out, leading Xu Qiaoqiao to the side. He lazily lay down on the soft cushion, holding the kitten in one paw, watching the interaction between Chestnut and its owner.

Xu Qiaoqiao followed Jun Qi and lay down next to him. The two of them had chosen a good spot, where the warm sunlight shone obliquely through the glass, shining right on the side where Xu Qiaoqiao and Jun Qi were lying.

"Meow."

She exclaimed contentedly, "Such beautiful sunshine is a rare sight at this time of year."

The temperature has dropped rapidly these past few days, and even the leaves on the trees seem to be competing to see who can fall the fastest. Every morning when I wake up in the neighborhood, the ground is covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves.

For animals, and for Xu Qiaoqiao, who used to be a hedgehog, dry fallen leaves can keep them warm. So, many stray cats collect fallen leaves in winter.

Miao Yuanyuan watched the chestnuts eating intently and a relieved smile appeared on her face. She then went to get the tablet and found many pictures of the zoo.

To ensure the accuracy of the images, she even asked her fans, who she has hundreds of thousands of followers from all over the country.

Such a small matter is naturally no big deal.

"Chestnut, look, is this what the zoo looks like in your memory?" After Chestnut finished eating, Miao Yuanyuan held up her tablet and swiped through pictures in front of him.

Basically, she had about twenty photos of a zoo, all very clear, of lions, tigers, and a Ferris wheel.

Chestnut is old, and being a cat, his memory is quite hazy. He can only remember the general outline of the zoo and what the cherry blossom park looks like.

I really can't think of anything specific; it's all very vague.

"Meow, meow meow meow, meow~"

Chestnut looked at the pictures and kept making noises. He seemed a little anxious. He wrinkled his nose and his tail shook violently from side to side. Towards the end, his voice became more rapid.

"Meow!"

Seeing Chestnut's appearance, Xu Qiaoqiao hurriedly jumped up from the cushion, ran to Chestnut's side, and, ignoring the aura emanating from him, reached out her paw and patted his head.

"Meow meow meow~" Chestnut, don't be angry, it's normal not to remember after all these years, relax.

Jun Qi followed. He had only comforted Xu Qiaoqiao, not the other animals, so his words of comfort sounded rather dry.

But he can perform the actions.

Junqi stretched out his paw and patted Chestnut's head, then gently patted his back with his tail: "Don't rush, think it over carefully, we can always manage. At worst, we can go and check each one one by one."

Seeing Xu Qiaoqiao and Jun Qi's actions, the cat owner's eyes quickly lit up with a smile. It seemed that the two little guys valued this friend very much. No wonder Qiaoqiao asked him to do these things this time.

It seems they are very good friends.

With Xu Qiaoqiao and Jun Qi's comforting words, Li Zi gradually calmed down. During this process, Miao Yuanyuan remained silent, quietly waiting for Li Zi to regain her composure.

How to describe her feelings? A mix of curiosity, melancholy, and a touch of sadness. Her gaze lingered on Xu Qiaoqiao from time to time.

Qiaoqiao is almost three years old now, which is young according to human age calculations. She is still very young, but time flies.

Now, the matter of chestnuts has made her think more. She lowered her eyes to hide the turmoil in them, feeling a sense of relief.
