Chapter 151 Punishment World (End) HPD Dad (End)…
The black cat paused and turned its head. The muscles on its shoulders and back were clearly defined, embodying a powerful strength. Suspecting it had misheard, it uttered a questioning "Meow?"
Are you challenging me?
"Meow!"
Zhuozhuo nodded vigorously. She looked up at Shen Qingxian and wrote a word on his palm:
After making sure he understood, Zhuozhuo pointed at herself and the black cat. Putting it together, she meant she was going to fight the black cat.
"No." Shen Qingxian subconsciously stopped him. With Zhuozhuo's small body, he was just enough to bite the black cat one by one when he rushed forward.
"Meow!"
Zhuozhuo poked his little head out from between Shen Qingxian's fingers and stared at him with a dissatisfied look on his face. "Mimi mimi mimi."
You once told me to keep challenging Black Cat until I get my revenge.
Shen Qingxian understood, remembering what he had said before. He was silent for a moment, wanting to say that his previous words were no longer valid. At this moment, the black cat meowed again, and Zhuozhuo immediately rushed out as if its tail had been stepped on. He didn't have time to stop it.
Black Cat: A dog on a leash pulled by its owner.
Zhuozhuo: Ahhhhhhhhhhh!
Cats and dogs are natural enemies, and the black cat's sarcasm about the kitten only daring to bark in Shen Qingxian's arms had successfully provoked her. Meowing, she leaped from Shen Qingxian's arms, landing in a near-parabola, rolling and crawling half a meter before successfully running and rushing in front of the black cat.
"Meow——"
“Meow——”
After two shrill cat meows, Zhuozhuo raised his claws and swung them fiercely at the black cat.
The little cat was pressed to the ground.
The world was quiet for a moment.
Shen Qingxian rushed over and picked up the little cat Zhuozhuo. The black cat took a few steps back and looked at them warily.
The battle ended too quickly. Zhuozhuo only came back to his senses after Shen Qingxian checked him for injuries. He looked at his little paws in confusion and disbelief, "Meow..."
She was spoiled and her fighting power degenerated to a negative number.
Shen Qingxian found that there was nothing but dust and grass on Zhuozhuo's body. He breathed a sigh of relief and used a cold murderous aura to force the black cat back to the sycamore tree. Seeing Zhuozhuo's expression, he almost couldn't help laughing and whispered, "Don't be sad. It's not that your fighting ability has declined. You used to be good at running away."
shining:"……"
Before she lost her temper, Shen Qingxian quickly said, "What does this black cat want to do?"
It seemed that he had no killing intention towards Zhuozhuo.
The little cat Zhuozhuo was sad for a moment, but she quickly shook off her emotions. She already knew she couldn't beat the black cat at that moment, so there was nothing to be sad about. Once her emotions subsided, her intelligence took over again, and Zhuozhuo quickly figured out the black cat's purpose.
The school was the black cat's territory. Previously, it had chased and killed the kitten Zhuozhuo to eliminate its kind from its territory. Now that Zhuozhuo had gone from wildcat to domesticated, and her competitors were no longer a concern, the black cat naturally wouldn't be so determined to kill her. Furthermore, her owner seemed quite capable of fighting. He'd simply appeared out of curiosity.
The little kitten meowed and waved its little paws, trying to convey its meaning.
The man and the cat hadn't yet reached the point of seamless communication. It was so complex that Shen Qingxian really struggled to fully comprehend it, but he did understand, relying primarily on his intelligence to figure it out. He feigned ignorance, letting Zhuozhuo explain a bit more before nodding in sudden realization and asking Zhuozhuo what he wanted to do.
Shen Qingxian's words were gentle, but he cast a cold look at the black cat. This cat was really idle, running over to watch the excitement.
Zhuozhuo thought so too and meowed indignantly.
It's too much!
"Then let's fight it?" Shen Qingxian whispered in Zhuozhuo the little cat's ear, his tone casual and confident, as if if Zhuozhuo nodded, he would definitely be able to fight it.
Zhuozhuo looked at the black cat's position and hesitated, "Meow?"
It’s so high, how can I hit it?
Shen Qingxian smiled and said, "Watch carefully."
The black cat, noticing that the atmosphere was not right, turned around and ran away. The dense treetops and mottled sunlight almost completely obscured its figure, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Shen Qingxian bent down to pick up a stone, weighed it in his hand, and flicked his wrist hard.
“Ouch.”
Along with the sound of stones hitting leaves, a scream was heard, and a black shadow fell into the grass and quickly fled.
The little cat Zhuozhuo stood up in shock, holding on to Shen Qingxian's arm. It looked at the direction where the black cat fell, and then looked at Shen Qingxian, wondering how he did it.
Shen Qingxian said calmly: "Its bones are not injured, it just hurts a lot."
Cats are animals that can endure pain very well. The blow that Shen Qingxian hit the black cat was more of a deterrent than a harm.
Zhuozhuo was captivated by Shen Qingxian's behavior, looking at him with admiration and respect. After returning home, she even took the initiative to climb onto Shen Qingxian's shoulders and rub his neck, chin, and cheeks. As they rubbed, Zhuozhuo's little head touched Shen Qingxian's mouth. Shen Qingxian was worried that the little one would misunderstand that he wanted to pet the cat, so he didn't dare to take the opportunity to suck lightly, and immediately turned his face away.
The little cat Zhuozhuo didn't seem to notice and continued to rub against Shen Qingxian, and its ear rubbed against Shen Qingxian's mouth.
Shen Qingxian: "..."
Shen Qingxian couldn't help but take a sip. It was warm and thin, as if he could feel the blood flowing, the breath of life quietly thriving. His eyes were slightly hot, and his heart suddenly surged with the emotion of raising children, and his fatherly heart surged.
However, fearing a beating from the cat daughter, Shen Qingxian quickly turned his head away and pretended nothing had happened.
Then he was punched twice by the scorching little cat Bang Bang.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have pinched your ear." Shen Qingxian admitted his mistake smoothly and said sincerely: "If you are angry, punch me twice more."
"Meow——"
The little cat Zhuozhuo became even angrier.
Shen Qingxian hurried to coax her again, promising that such a thing would never happen again, and also promised three bags of goat milk powder, etc. After a series of operations of ceding land and paying compensation, the kitten jumped onto the sofa, buried its head in the gap, and refused to pay attention to anyone.
Shen Qingxian was rarely confused.
Tickling his ear shouldn't be a crime. Zhuozhuo was obviously angry for another reason. But Shen Qingxian's clever mind thought and thought, but couldn't come up with an answer. He turned to make a bottle of goat milk and tiptoed over to Zhuozhuo, his knees pressed against the sofa without attracting her attention.
"Zhuozhuo, can you tell Daddy why you're unhappy? Daddy must have done something wrong, but Daddy is a little dumb and can't figure it out. Can you tell me? I want to make you happy."
Very humble.
9972 also advised: [Baby, don’t be so upset by yourself, tell Shen Qingxian, let Shen Qingxian cry and say sorry to you!]
Zhuozhuo was a kind baby and did not make Shen Qingxian worry too much. She pulled her little head out from the gap in the sofa and looked at Shen Qingxian with some grievance, which immediately made him feel distressed.
Shen Qingxian knelt on the sofa and picked up the little cat, "Okay, baby, if you don't want to talk about it, then don't talk about it. I won't ask anymore, but you have to be happy. If you are sad, Daddy will feel bad too."
Zhuozhuo looked at Shen Qingxian speechlessly, tilted his little head and thought for a while, raised his little paw and licked it, then pointed at Shen Qingxian.
"You want to lick my fur?" Shen Qingxian blamed himself, "Yes, Dad said that I would let Zhuozhuo lick my fur when I get back, but Dad forgot, I'm sorry..."
"Meow."
Zhuozhuo shook her head. She continued to lick her paw, and after a few licks, she looked at Shen Qingxian, waiting for him to understand. However, Shen Qingxian's expression changed several times, but he didn't say the correct answer.
The furry tail swayed impatiently, and Zhuozhuo suddenly jumped onto Shen Qingxian's shoulder and slapped his chattering mouth with a paw, "Meow!"
Shen Qingxian's microphone was muted, but the impossible guess in his mind became clearer and clearer. He held the kitten's paw and kissed it, then tentatively said, "Zhuozhuo, do you want me to lick your fur?"
"Meow~"
Finally understanding, the little cat Zhuozhuo hung exhaustedly on Shen Qingxian's shoulder, feeling like he had experienced a difficult battle.
Shen Qingxian's tone was vague. He looked at the small group of cats on his shoulder and asked humbly, "But, aren't you going to be my leader? Wouldn't it be inappropriate for me to lick your fur? Of course, Daddy will do whatever Zhuozhuo wants, as long as Zhuozhuo is happy."
The desire to survive is very strong.
Zhuozhuo listened quietly, shook his ears lazily, and said, "Meow."
There was only a cry, without any body movements or expressions to indicate anything, but Shen Qingxian understood it with his intelligence and tentatively said, "Dad chased the black cat away, so Zhuozhuo is going to step down and let Dad lead our family temporarily?"
"Meow."
Zhuozhuo's cry was calm, without any resentment or anger, as if this was a matter of course. She even brought the kitten's head closer to Shen Qingxian's mouth, indicating that she should lick its fur first.
Shen Qingxian chuckled. The kitten's straightforward thinking was so adorable it made him want to explode. He kissed Zhuozhuo on the forehead, then pinched and kissed each of her four little paws. He finally understood why some foolish fathers could smile so broadly even when kissing their children's stinky feet, especially since Zhuozhuo didn't stink.
After kissing again and again, under the puzzled and urging gaze of the little cat, Shen Qingxian tried to lick her head hair.
My mouth was covered with hair and I almost retched.
Shen Qingxian quickly coughed twice to cover it up, and said sincerely: "Zhuozhuo, you should know that Dad is a human, not a cat, right?"
"Meow."
Of course, Zhuozhuo the little cat is very clear about his identity as a "human-cat hybrid".
"Then you should also know that the structure of human and cat tongues is different. Human tongues can't lick fur. They will cramp up and even become stiff from fatigue, which would make it impossible to eat or talk." Shen Qingxian tried his best to explain, "We humans express intimacy by hugging, but there is a solution to everything. I can comb your fur with a comb, and I can also use depilatory gloves, is that okay?"
"Meow."
Try it.
Fortunately, both of these things were available at home, so Shen Qingxian immediately found them and let Zhuozhuo try them out. He asked Zhuozhuo about his experience patiently, carefully and enthusiastically, just like a shampoo boy.
Zhuozhuo gradually collapsed into a cat-like shape, with his eyes half-closed, his paws propped up limply, and a purring sound coming from his throat.
This was the first time she made this sound in front of Shen Qingxian, but Shen Qingxian immediately understood its meaning - he had searched countless times for the sound that must be mentioned in cat behavior studies, which is the sound that cats use to express comfort, relaxation, and closeness and trust in their owners.
Shen Qingxian grinned unconsciously and combed Zhuozhuo's fur even harder, soon combing out a clump of loose hair. He didn't throw the loose hair away, but collected it like a treasure, placing it in an exquisite wooden box. He explained to the kitten Zhuozhuo who had followed him, "I saw many people online using their furry children's hair to make felt, spin yarn, and even cultivate diamonds. I'm going to give it a try, too."
"Meow."
Zhuozhuo did not comment on this and consciously returned to the role of the baby being taken care of. She rolled on the ground and started playing with a small ball of wool.
Shen Qingxian put the wooden box in the cabinet, turned his head and saw Zhuozhuo rolling himself into a sea urchin ball. He smiled unconsciously and took out his mobile phone to record the scene.
Life is back on track, peaceful and regular.
Under Shen Qingxian's protection, Zhuozhuo only had to worry about what to eat and how to "torture" the students in her class. With the June college entrance exams over, her classmates had concluded their high school careers, and Zhuozhuo had grown up a lot. She lay on Shen Qingxian's shoulder, her drooping tail occasionally flicking on his arm.
She had just fought with Black Cat, and although it ended in a draw, she was in a good mood. Because she was still young, her future was on the rise, but Black Cat was already at the peak at the moment.
"Teacher Kitten!"
The excited classmates rushed over, their faces flushed with excitement, and asked, "Can you take a picture with me?"
Zhuozhuo Xiaomaoer had already developed feelings for this class of students and classified them as those under her protection. She had already been explained the meaning of graduation by Shen Qingxian, so she did not reject this group of people whom she would probably never see again.
After taking photos with everyone, Zhuozhuo collapsed on Shen Qingxian's arm like a breathing fake cat, pretending to be dead.
Shen Qingxian walked to a cool place and took out the vacuum-packed homemade cat food from his backpack to feed Zhuozhuo. After a long period of hard practice, Shen Qingxian's version of cat food was finally edible. After the little one finished the cat food, Shen Qingxian took out the thermos bottle and gave her goat milk.
The kitten was doted on to no end, and Zhuozhuo only moved his mouth the whole time.
9972 watched from the sidelines, already accustomed to it. Raising a cat, Shen Qingxian had become both a father and a mother, taking care of everything himself. Like a human parent, he also read stories to Zhuozhuo before bed. Given Shen Qingxian's HPD personality, he could perfectly portray each character in the story, bringing Zhuozhuo to a roar of laughter.
Shen Qingxian was obviously enjoying it, and it had been a long time since he had gone to the hidden study to update his diary.
9972 I don’t know whether this trend is good or bad, but as long as Zhuozhuo is happy, nothing else matters. Let’s just live like this for now.
After eating and drinking, the little cat exposed its belly to bask in the sun.
Shen Qingxian took out a wet wipe to clean the hair around Zhuozhuo's mouth, rubbed her little ears, and suddenly said, "Baby, do you want to avenge your mother?"
Zhuozhuo was stunned for a moment, then stood up with a start and stared at Shen Qingxian, "Hmm?"
my mom?
"Yes. I found the murderer who killed the mother cat. Do you want to go and see?" Shen Qingxian looked calm, trying his best not to inflict negative emotions on Zhuozhuo.
His eyes were filled with murderous intent. "Meow!"
go!
Shen Qingxian took Zhuozhuo to the hospital and explained softly, "This bad guy must have done too many bad things, and this is retribution. First, he broke his leg, then his arm was crushed by his wheelchair, and he fell into a septic tank. He survived thanks to timely rescue, but he inhaled a large amount of multiple toxic gases. The doctor said he might never wake up."
His parents were considering whether to give up treatment. Shen Qingxian was worried that Zhuozhuo would not be able to see his enemy, so he came here on this happy day.
There happened to be no attendants in the ward. Zhuozhuo stood on Shen Qingxian's arm, watching the shrunken figure on the bed, the scent of death between her nostrils. A cat's exceptional eyesight allowed her to catch a slight movement beneath the patient's tightly closed eyelids, like a dying struggle, before the place fell into eternal silence.
Shen Qingxian sighed lightly, "It's too late."
Zhuozhuo didn't say anything. Her memory of her cat mother had begun to blur. Seeing her enemy dead, she felt relieved and sad, and was quietly carried out by Shen Qingxian.
After leaving the ward, a couple rushed into the ward with red eyes, crying heart-wrenchingly.
The little cat Zhuozhuo began to think about death. She already knew that cats had a much shorter lifespan than humans. Even if Shen Qingxian was her father, she would definitely die before him.
If she died, would Shen Qingxian cry so bitterly? Would Shen Qingxian have another child? Would Shen Qingxian continue to live a peaceful and stable life?
Zhuozhuo looked up at Shen Qingxian for a long time but didn't ask.
9972 also felt a little emotional. In order to achieve the punishment effect, there is basically no time limit in the punishment world. Maybe Zhuozhuo can die of old age in this world.
Shen Qingxian wanted to take Zhuozhuo with him, so living in the university dormitory was inconvenient. So he came to the city where the university was located early, played with Zhuozhuo for a few days, and then rented a three-bedroom apartment. There was a study room, a cat playroom, and a bedroom where they could sleep together.
Shen Qingxian's university life was much busier than high school, but also much freer. At least he could take Zhuozhuo with him almost anywhere. Whether academically or in appearance, Shen Qingxian stood out among the talented students on the university campus. He quickly became a popular figure on campus, favored by most of his classmates and teachers.
As Shen Qingxian's fame grew, Zhuozhuo became the school's star cat, a status symbol that always stayed with him. Who wouldn't love a beautiful, adorable, and coquettish cat? It was only natural that Zhuozhuo was the school's favorite. She was like a little sun, radiating light and filling every corner with laughter and joy.
In the second semester of his junior year, Shen Qingxian started his own business with some like-minded classmates.
He was busy almost day and night. Even if he wanted to be with Zhuozhuo all the time, he couldn't selfishly ask a curious kitten to sit in front of his computer all day and all night. Fortunately, the rented office was relatively remote, with few outsiders around. Zhuozhuo also had a positioning chip and distance monitoring equipment, so Shen Qingxian could rest assured that she could play around for a while.
That day, Zhuozhuo darted out of the emergency exit, chasing a leaky food ball. After a long while of meowing and scrambling around the hall, she finally cleared the ball. She lay on the ground, staring at the lush greenery outside the glass door, her eyes gleaming with longing.
Shen Qingxian has no time to eat recently. He can only take Zhuozhuo for a walk outside when it is late at night. Zhuozhuo really wants to go out and play. The small trees outside are all in bloom!
Before he knew it, the little cat rushed to the door. A small red flower floated in the breeze and landed just one step away.
Zhuozhuo stood up immediately and wanted to stretch out his claws to pull Xiaohua in, but after hesitating for a moment, he decided to listen to Shen Qingxian's advice and resolutely not leave the building alone!
To avoid being tempted again, Zhuozhuo turned and walked back. Suddenly, a shadow quickly spread and enveloped her. Amidst 9972's screams, Zhuozhuo was pinned to the ground by a huge force. Her internal organs and bones seemed to be squeezed together, and the pain was so severe that she instantly lost consciousness.
.
In the noisy and busy small office, a sharp alarm sounded piercingly. Shen Qingxian, who was typing on the keyboard, immediately stood up, supported himself with one hand and jumped out of the desk. He strode out while checking the location on his mobile phone.
Behind him, someone asked curiously what happened. The classmate was not surprised and said jokingly, "That was the distance alarm on Team Leader Shen's cat going off. She must have run out of the building for fun. She won't get too far. Everything will be fine once Team Leader Shen finds her."
The man muttered, "Why are you so nervous?"
The classmate said casually, "I don't know when I became so nervous. It's as if Zhuozhuo will be harmed if she leaves my sight. Oh, Zhuozhuo is the name of the cat. She's so cute, everyone likes her..."
Shen Qingxian followed the location all the way out of the building and found the scorching collar and a large patch of scattered cat hair in the green belt at the corner. It was as if someone had ripped the collar off her neck and thrown it away, and in their haste, they had also pulled out a lot of hair, some of which was covered with flesh and blood.
Shen Qingxian's head felt like it was hit by a hammer, and a burning scream rang in his ears.
“Mimi—mimi—mimi—”
"Dad—Dad—help me!"
Shen Qingxian dialed the phone expressionlessly, "Check the surveillance camera, in front of the building, looking for Zhuozhuo."
The classmate on the other end of the phone smelled danger and pressed on the keyboard, "What's wrong? Can't find Zhuozhuo? Hello? Shen Qingxian, please speak—"
The last word was uttered as the phone fell to the brick floor.
Shen Qingxian looked at the other side of the green belt like a sculpture. In the corner between the green belt and the wall, there were two cats lying there.
One had matted and dirty fur, the other was bald and reddish-purple.
"shining……"
Shen Qingxian's lips moved, making an almost inaudible sound.
It seemed like a long century had passed, and it also seemed like the next moment, Shen Qingxian staggered over, knelt on the ground, and dared not touch with trembling hands.
Some unknown switch was touched, and a vicious mechanical sound mixed with electricity rang out, "Shen Qingxian, aren't you popular? I don't see how you can be popular without this dead cat!"
