Chapter 108 The Fourth Store



Du Qingmei was so absorbed in feeding the cat that she didn't notice it at all. She was confused at this moment: "What?" Lu Yao

walked to the kitchen with an empty plate in his hand, and said calmly: "Just now the door of the shop opened, and outside was not the sea, but a place similar to a study. The guest seemed to have gone home."

She was not sure, but just guessed, otherwise she couldn't explain where Chen Xingyu went.

! ! !

Du Qingmei stood up, put down the plate, and immediately walked to the door and opened the door. The sea water was still blocked by a transparent film, which was completely different from the study described by the owner.

However, there was an anemone fish outside the door. Its orange body had three irregular white stripes with black edges. It was slightly larger in size, and its mouth opened and closed.

It seemed to have not expected the door to open suddenly, and its expression was a little dazed.

Anemonefish are a type of fish that live in symbiosis with anemones, using the anemones as cover to avoid predators and predators. They mostly feed on plankton, crustaceans and seaweed around the anemones, and usually do not easily leave the vicinity of the symbiotic anemones.

Moreover, ordinary fish that are interested in this furry little shop will not stay right at the door. Du Qingmei guessed that this was also a similar fish that swam over from the closed school of fish, and leaned to the side, "Do you want to come in?"

The anemonefish swam up and down twice, hesitated for a moment, and began to squeeze into the door, falling on the white beach, and turned into a young woman with pink hair.

Qin Meng supported the beach with his hands, gasping for breath, and really turned back!

She followed the mantis shrimp all the way to the outside of the furry shop, and watched for a long time. She saw the mantis shrimp turn into a human after entering the shop.

Du Qingmei walked up to Qin Meng and squatted down. When she saw her appearance clearly, her eyes widened slightly.

This person looked so familiar, and her name was on the tip of her tongue, but she couldn't say it. Lu

Yao heard the voice and came out of the kitchen, her eyes lit up, "What a beautiful young lady."

Qin Meng stood up, looked up and saw three kittens and Erxin lying on a low table licking her fur. She frowned slightly and stepped back two steps.

This was the main reason why she hesitated outside the store just now.

She doesn't like cats, or rather, she doesn't like anything furry, she doesn't like the smell of animals, and she hates animal fur on her clothes.

Lu Yao noticed that her expression was not right: "Don't you like cats?"

"No, I just didn't expect there would be a cat cafe on the bottom of the sea." Qin Meng shook her head and made up an excuse.

Even if she didn't like it, she wouldn't say it in front of the owner. After

many years of work experience, he still has this kind of look.

"Please sit anywhere, I'll go get some water." Lu Yao pretended not to notice, went back to the kitchen to pour a glass of rose lychee sparkling water, and cut a plate of fruit.

Qin Meng picked a low table next to her where no one was sitting, leaned against it to rest, and saw the scenery outside the window, her eyes were shocked.

There were actually mountains and forests outside the store, the sky was blue and the clouds were white, and there seemed to be a warm breeze blowing, which was very comfortable.

Du Qingmei looked back at her, still felt familiar, but couldn't remember where she had seen her.

Chen Xingyu stepped out of the furry shop, his eyes went dark, and his consciousness suddenly became dizzy.

When he woke up again, the electronic clock on the desk showed the time was 23:53, and under his arm was a half-read English notebook.

He slapped his forehead in frustration. Tomorrow was the midterm exam, and he fell asleep in the final review stage, wasting a lot of time.

A small ball of fur that looked like a fried yellow potato flashed through his mind, and Chen Xingyu paused in slapping his forehead. He

seemed to have had a strange dream while sleeping, but he couldn't remember it clearly.

It left behind a strange feeling of relaxation, which easily dispelled the depressed mood in his heart.

Chen Xingyu was stunned for a few seconds, then quietly got up to pack up his English notebook, then washed up, lay down on the bed, and slowly closed his eyes.

He is a sophomore in high school this year, and has been studying very hard, but the results are not obvious.

He sacrificed all his time for socializing and hobbies to memorize books and practice questions.

However, his test scores were not ideal. Because he was too focused, his classmates gave him the nickname "nerd".

In the past, he was often too nervous to fall asleep the night before the test. He could only read books to pass the time, and woke up the next day with a headache.

He thought he would not be able to sleep tonight, but when he lay in the quilt and closed his eyes, he seemed to hear a strange snoring sound in his ears. It

was not noisy, but rather a very comfortable sound.

The snoring made his consciousness gradually relax.

He opened his eyes again and it was dim outside the window.

He sat up suddenly and it was dawn.

Chen Xingyu slept well that night and felt particularly relaxed physically and mentally.

After breakfast, he took his stationery into the examination room.

In the corridor, he met classmates from the same class but different examination rooms. One of them patted him on the shoulder and said, "Nerd, did you stay up all night to review again last night? Can you get into the top ten in the class this time?"

Someone next to him laughed, "For youth, the most important thing is to work hard. The result is not important at all, hahaha."

Chen Xingyu remained silent.

Sometimes, when you can't do something well no matter how hard you try, you become a representative of failure.

It's better to be a person who doesn't work hard, and just make a joke.

He has always understood it, but he can't give up completely.

The strings in his brain are always tense, and he moves forward restlessly.

His stomach began to ache slightly, and he felt nervous again.

The fried yellow potato flashed through his mind again, and it seemed that someone else said something.

Chen Xingyu was stunned, and his emotions strangely calmed down. He took a deep breath and walked straight into the examination room.

The class bell rang, and the invigilator began to distribute the test papers.

Chen Xingyu took the paper and began to answer the questions, his mind was unusually clear.

Qin Meng sat by the window, supporting her chin with one hand, looking at the mountains and clouds outside the window, her expression gloomy.

She didn't like cats, but she could only turn back into a human in this store, there was no other place to go.

Suddenly, she felt a wetness at her fingers, and she retracted her hand abruptly, turning her head in surprise.

The little fox in the store had jumped onto the table at some point, and just now it squatted beside her hand, licking her fingers with its soft barbed tongue.

Qin Meng frowned and looked at Tianka, took out a tissue from the tissue box to wipe the fingertips that had just been licked, and her disgust was evident in her words.

Tianka walked over, raised his paws to grab the hanging tissue, and called out in a cute voice: "Meow."

It has a pretty face, with round and watery amber eyes, dark gray fur on its back, slightly white chest, and two front paws that are still white gloves. When it is raised, it looks like a snow-white mangosteen, so round that people want to take a bite.

Qin Meng rolled up the used tissue into a ball to prevent it from grabbing.

Tianka thought she was playing with it, so she stood up to grab it, calling out cutely: "Meow~ Meow~"

Qin Meng didn't want to get used to it, so she raised her hand to throw the paper ball into the trash can, and raised her chin slightly to look at it.

Tianka didn't know what to think, so he lay down on the ground, turned over to his side, revealing his soft belly, "Meow~"

"..." Qin Meng's heart was trembling. The fur was fluffy and must be very soft to the touch.

If I just... just touch it, it shouldn't be a big deal, right?

She was just curious and wanted to know if the kitten's belly was as soft as she imagined.

Tianka waited for a long time, staring at Qin Meng with his black grape-like eyes, stepping on the milk with his front paws, making a purring sound.

"!!!" Qin Meng carefully reached out her hand and gently touched the soft belly of Tianka. It felt incredibly soft, warm and soft.

Touch it once, and touch it again.

Qin Meng simply reached out and held Tianka on her lap, and stroked its head and chin without any instruction.

Tianka's purring became clearer and clearer.

Lu Yao, who was sitting on the short stool at the back, saw all of Tianka's coquettish behavior and was not surprised at all.

"Ah!" Du Qingmei, who was sitting opposite Lu Yao, slapped the table and finally remembered, "You are Qin Meng!"

Qin Meng leaned over and nodded slightly. Lu Yao

whispered, "Someone you know?"

Du Qingmei looked at the owner in disbelief, "You don't know her? It's the idol girl group that's been very popular recently. Qin Meng is the C position, super popular." Lu Yao

lowered his eyes, "Sorry, I'm not a fan, so I don't know much about these."

Du Qingmei was not a fan either, so it took her a long time to recognize her. Unexpectedly, the owner was even more ruthless than her.

She couldn't help but look back at Qin Meng: "You are more beautiful in person than on TV."

Qin Meng's reaction was relatively flat: "Thank you."

Du Qingmei sat for a while, and couldn't help but turn around and move to Qin Meng's table, "Why are you here? Aren't idols very busy?"

Qin Meng lowered her head and gently stroked the sweet coffee with her hand.

Just when Du Qingmei thought she wouldn't answer, she said, "I had an accident on stage, broke my leg, and went to the hospital. All my activities were suspended. One morning I woke up and turned into a fish."

Du Qingmei nodded, "My situation is similar to yours, but I don't even remember what happened before I came here."

"When I first came, I just felt that the sea water was very cold and I didn't want to move. Gradually, my body became more and more stiff, and I felt less and less willing to move. I felt that it would be nice to just sink to the bottom of the sea. The sound of you and the owner picking sea urchins under the seabed was very noisy, and you were loudly discussing how to eat them. I was a little concerned, so I tried to move my fins, and I actually swam out." Qin Meng said, "But it seems that I still can't get out."

Lu Yao heard Qin Meng's words from behind, frowned slightly, lowered his head and thought for a while, "A customer left."

Qin Meng turned sideways, leaned her back against the wall, carefully picked up Tianka who was sleeping on her legs, and looked at Lu Yao: "I saw it."

She was outside the door at the time, and the pajamas boy came out of the furry shop with a relaxed look on his face, and then disappeared.

"What did he do in the store? Why did he leave?" Qin Meng asked.

She also had to go back. Her leg was injured, her activities were suspended, and she had to give up her C position to another person in the team.

The road ahead was so bad, she couldn't be trapped in this inexplicable place.

Even if she was sick, she had to find a way to maintain her enthusiasm and couldn't just lie down.

Lu Yao recalled, "Nothing special, I just ate some seafood and played with Dai Jiaopa for a while."

Qin Meng looked at Lu Yao with burning eyes, took off a gemstone gold bracelet on her wrist, and handed it to him: "Owner, give me a plate of seafood too."

She lived in the hospital and had no money on her, only a bracelet.

After turning back into a human, she realized that she had brought it over.

The system detected that this bracelet is made of pure gold and inlaid with natural amethysts and diamonds, and is estimated to be worth 18,000 Soft Sister Dollars.

Lu Yao: “…”

The consumption of the furry shop for deep-sea residents is not high.

Excluding other food and beverage consumption in the store, it is equivalent to 88 Soft Sister Dollars, which can be used to play with furry animals in the store for an unlimited time.

This 18,000 yuan should not be used to buy an annual card for the young lady?

System: [Spending 100,000 popularity points can upgrade the card charging service. Does the store owner choose to upgrade? ]

Lu Yao: “…No.”

System: [The store owner is scared. ]

Lu Yao: “…”

She has a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder. She plans to upgrade the deep-sea fish tank first, and she must complete it before proceeding to the next step.

It is too difficult when the popularity value is not enough.

Lu Yao wants to go out to sea to pick up garbage again.

She converted Qin Meng's jewelry into coins for accounting, and went back to the kitchen to make a plate of fresh seafood.

Qin Meng copied Chen Xingyu's route, eating seafood and playing with cats.

Opening the door, there was still an endless deep sea outside.

Qin Meng sat at the door of the store, muttering to herself: "Why not?"

Lu Yao: "Maybe everyone has different conditions for going back. Don't be sad."

Qin Meng collapsed and held her head: "But I have to go back quickly!"

The later it was, the longer she was forgotten by the public, and the harder it would be to return to her original position.

Tianka woke up at some point, jumped off the low stool lightly, found Lu Yao's direction accurately, and meowed for food. .

Lu Yao went back to the kitchen and made cat food for the three kittens. She handed Tianka's cat bowl to Qin Meng, "Do you want to feed it?"

Qin Meng was stunned for a moment. Tianka looked at her eagerly.

She took the cat food bowl, scooped up the cooked food with a small spoon, and handed it to Tianka.

The little fox flower came closer to sniff, then started eating, making a "smacking" sound.

It eats very slowly, taking one or two minutes to eat a small spoonful.

After eating, it looks up at her. If she doesn't move, it will come closer and rub her ankles with its head tilted, calling out to her in a cute voice.

Qin Meng simply sits on the floor and feeds it spoonful by spoonful, her brows gradually relaxing.

She has never watched a small animal eat so carefully before.

Tianka looks so well behaved while eating. His little beard moves with his mouth, and he looks serious, as if eating is the most important thing in life.

Even if he makes a "smacking" sound, it doesn't seem annoying.

After Tianka finishes his meal, he returns to Erxin's side, huddles together with Dai Jiaopai and Pengci, licks his paws and prepares to go to sleep again.

Qin Meng sighed: "I can sleep after eating, without any worries, and I don't have to worry about gaining weight. Being a cat is so happy." Lu

Yao came out of the kitchen and happened to hear these words. He couldn't help but say: "Erxin was originally a stray cat. He was hit by a car on the street. His intestines were flowing out, but he insisted on carrying his three cubs into the ditch. When I found them, there was blood all over the ground. The family of five lay in the muddy ditch. It was terrible."

Qin Meng: "A family of five?"

Lu Yao: "One of the kittens was not rescued. Only these three and Erxin were left."

Qin Meng was silent.

Lu Yao: "It's okay now. You said they are happy little kittens, and they will always be cute and happy in the future."

Qin Meng leaned over and lay down next to Erxin, next to Tianka, and closed her eyes: "Shopkeeper, I want to sleep for a while too."

Erxin next to her was snoring all the time.

Compared with a kitten, her snoring is comparable to the "Emperor Engine".

Qin Meng's sleep has always been very light. She thought she would not be able to fall asleep, but she lost consciousness in less than half a minute.

She was still thinking that it seemed not bad to not have to pay attention to her image all the time, not have to pay attention to any public opinion, and play with cats and watch the sea.

Lu Yao looked at Qin Meng curled up into a ball, took out a clean blanket, and prepared to cover Qin Meng with it.

When he came back, he saw Qin Meng slowly turning into an anemone fish, wrapped in colorful bubbles, and slowly flying out of the furry shop.

Du Qingmei was stunned.

Lu Yao: "Did she go back?"

System: [Yes. ]

Lu Yao let out a breath, at least she's not dead.

Lanxin Middle School.

Class 5, Grade 2.

Chen Xingyu sat in his seat, rubbing his hands a little uneasily.

The results of the midterm exam will be announced today. He feels that he was in good condition during this exam. He slept well, was relaxed, and the process of doing the questions went smoothly. The score should be higher than the previous level.

But he often had this feeling before, and every time the score came out, he felt a chill in his heart.

This time, when he came out of the examination room, he didn't even dare to find someone to check his answers. He waited tremblingly until the day when the results were released.

The bell rang, and the head teacher walked in with a big smile on his face.

Someone in the class immediately started to make a noise: "Mr. Li's smile is like a flower, our class must have done well in the exam this time."

"Who is the first?"

"It must be Li Mingxing again, who can surpass him?"

"He must be in the top ten in the grade."

The head teacher, Mr. Li, stood on the podium, waved his hand to let the students be quiet, turned on the multimedia, and projected the report card directly onto the blackboard.

Everyone subconsciously looked down from top to bottom, and when they saw the names in the first row, they were all stunned.

The first place was indeed Li Mingxing, but the second place was no longer one of the people they were familiar with.

A boy asked his deskmate: "Am I seeing things? Chen Xingyu is the second?"

"Not only the second, but the tenth in the grade!"

The wrinkles on Lao Li's face were about to burst. "That's right. Chen Xingyu, a student in our class who has been working hard, has accumulated a lot of knowledge and has performed steadily. He got very good results in this midterm exam. The teacher is very happy."

Chen Xingyu sat in his seat, just like dreaming.
