Chapter 05 Mom, can I have a kitten? (Catching insects)

Lin Meiling blinked, unable to believe what she saw.

Coco was squatting on the ground, happily playing with the four kittens in the incubator.

The kittens were lively and cute, making soft and sticky meows.

Lin Meiling was dumbfounded.

Aren’t those soft, fluffy, and lively kittens the ones she had seen in the documentary before?

"I...did I go the wrong way?" She muttered to herself, subconsciously backing out of the store and then pushing it open again.

However, the scene in front of her had not changed at all.

The four snow-white kittens were still there, their furry little paws waving, their big blue eyes looking at her curiously.

Lin Meiling pointed at the kittens, trembling. She was in disbelief.

"Oh my God... Has technology developed to this point? It's too realistic!"

How much would such a realistic pet cost?

She still couldn't imagine that it might be a real pet.

She remembered the high-level simulated pets she had seen in the capital star. They were not as vivid as the ones in front of her, but they cost millions!

At this time, Coco was having fun. Seeing her mother's eyes light up, she shouted excitedly: "Mom! I want this kitten!"

Lin Meiling almost fainted when she heard this.

She rushed over and covered her daughter's mouth: "What nonsense are you talking about? Do you know how much this costs?" She

couldn't afford it even if she sold her house!

She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

Then she remembered that she was here to do business.

Lin Meiling turned to her husband and daughter and asked seriously, "Did you come here secretly to buy Xiaomi Cloud Backup?"

Lan Tianwei shook his head, and Coco's mother covered her mouth and shook her head wildly.

Hearing this, Lin Meiling's expression not only did not ease, but became even more panicked.

"It's over,"

her voice began to tremble: "You...you don't want to buy these simulated pets? Even if we sell our house, we can't afford them!"

"Realistic pets?"

Lan Tianwei finally reacted and couldn't help but laugh and cry. It turned out that Meiling regarded these as the most advanced simulated pets.

He quickly explained, "Meiling, you misunderstood. These are not simulated pets, they are real."

Lin Meiling was not willing to believe it.

She looked at her husband in disbelief, "Don't lie to me. Haven't pets been endangered for a long time? How could they appear here?"

They were just a remote fourth-level star, and they didn't even have a few advanced mechanical pets.

Lan Tianwei patiently explained, "Really, Meiling. These little guys were sick yesterday, and we saved them with medicine. They are 100% real pets."

Lin Meiling was stunned. No, she was not dreaming, was she?

She looked at the little girl shop owner, but saw that the shop owner also smiled and nodded.

At this moment, a little kitten meowed at her.

Lin Meiling subconsciously stretched out her hand, and the kittens in the incubator also stretched out their white and tender paws to face her.

The kittens have already mastered this action with Coco.

Lin Meiling spoke with difficulty, "Shopkeeper, can I touch them?"

"Of course you can." Su Wudeng said.

Lin Meiling slowly squatted down and stretched out her hand tremblingly.

When her fingertips touched the soft fur of the kittens, a warm current instantly surged through her body.

The kitten thought there was someone new to play with it, and rubbed Lin Meiling's hand with its soft little head.

The touch was warm and real.

It was something that no simulated pet could imitate.

Not to mention the cold and hard mechanical pets.

"Oh my god..." Lin Meiling finally believed it, "They are actually... real..."

She actually touched a real pet today!

The little kitten in front of her was lively and cute, with snow-white fur that seemed to glow in the light, and big round blue eyes, full of innocence and curiosity about this world.

"How can there be such a cute little cub?" Lin Meiling murmured to herself, unconsciously reaching out to stroke the head of a little kitten.

Not to mention the father and daughter, even the heart of an old mother like her was touched.

However, reality quickly brought her back to reason, and Lin Meiling suddenly woke up.

"Wait, aren't real pets more expensive? We can't afford them!"

But Coco was too young to worry about that. She said in a childish way, "Mom, can I have a kitten?"

Lin Meiling immediately stopped her daughter and said, "Don't talk nonsense! How expensive is it? We can't afford it."

Coco's eyes dimmed instantly, but she didn't cry. She just lowered her head silently.

This sensible look made Lin Meiling feel even more uncomfortable.

Su Wudeng was also thinking in her heart that she would find a good home for these cats sooner or later.

How to find one?

First of all, the family that adopts the kitten must be good, really like the kitten, and be able to accept her return visit, etc....

Secondly, the kitten must like it!

After so many rules and regulations, she is not going to set the price too high. She will not treat the kitten as a tool to make money. She

will not block the owner who likes the cat from the door because of the price.

Su Wudeng thought about it. Apart from other things, Uncle Lan's family met the first condition.

So, she said, "Uncle Lan, why don't we go to the front to talk?"

Uncle Lan's family followed Su Wudeng to the front counter of the store.

...

Opposite the Wolf War Pet Store.

Xiao Wei complained angrily to her boyfriend, "I will never care about Su Wudeng again!"

"I gave her a way out out of kindness, but she was so ungrateful! That's 100,000 credit points!"

Her boyfriend Zhao Zhengzhi sneered: "Don't be angry, when our store opens, her crappy store will have to close down, right?"

Xiaowei nodded, and looked around the spacious store, a look of satisfaction in her eyes: "That's right, our store is hundreds of square meters, and it's three floors."

"And they are all imported high-end mechanical pets, how can her crappy store compare to them?"

"Once the business opens, she will regret it, and will beg us to buy them."

The boyfriend put his arm around Xiaowei's shoulders: "Yeah, for your sake, I will let her be a clerk, what do you think?"

Xiaowei smiled: "Okay, just consider it as giving her a way out for the sake of our old friendship."

Su Yulan will definitely thank her then!

That's a top student at the University of Beasts, so the thank-you gift must be big, right?

...

Inside the Pet Home store.

Uncle Lan scratched his head in embarrassment, "Sorry, owner, Coco is still young and doesn't understand the value of Snow Crystal Cats, please don't mind it."

"I know it must be very expensive, and we probably can't afford it."

"In fact, we are very happy to come and see them often like this."

Coco seemed to understand something, that her parents couldn't afford it.

But it doesn't matter, she will study hard, and when she makes money in the future, she can raise kittens!

Su Wudeng said, "Actually, price is not the most important consideration."

"The key is whether the kittens will choose you and Coco."

Uncle Lan and his family were stunned. "You mean... cats take the initiative to choose their owners?"

They were a little surprised. It was the first time they heard of such a thing.

Pets take the initiative to choose their owners?

Su Wudeng nodded, "Yes, if the kitten chooses you, it's fate."

"I will sell it to you at a price you can afford."

"Of course, there will be corresponding additional conditions."

"So, do you want to try raising it for a month?"

"If after a month, the kitten is willing to leave with Coco, then it will be Coco's."

Uncle Lan and his wife looked at each other in shock, and were so excited that they couldn't speak.

They never thought that after a sudden turn of events, there would be such a good thing!

What's the difference between this and pie in the sky?

Uncle Lan's voice was shaking with excitement, "Shopkeeper, are you telling the truth?"

Lin Meiling quickly replied, "Yes! Of course we are willing!"

If you bet on Coco, you still have a chance, but if you don't bet, you will have no chance at all.

She made up her mind: "Just tell us how much the deposit is, and we will transfer it to you right away!"

Su Wudeng thought for a moment, "How about a deposit of twice that of the mechanical pet Xiaomi?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Meiling's voice trembled with excitement: "Really?"

Uncle Lan quickly stopped Meiling, "Don't bargain randomly, the price given by the owner is already the most favorable. It's a great thing to be able to buy a Snow Crystal cat at this price!"

Lin Meiling chuckled: "Who said I want to bargain? I think it's too little, and I want to give the owner more."

Keke understood this, Mom and Dad can afford it!

She jumped up with excitement: "Wow! I'm going to have a kitten!"

Su Wudeng also smiled unconsciously, but she also stated in advance: "The final result still depends on the kitten's choice in a month."

"Also, during this month, you have to learn how to take care of the kitten."

"In addition, after the adoption, there will be some specific agreements and terms. You can sign them together when you really decide to take it away."

Uncle Lan nodded repeatedly: "No problem! I'll listen to you, the owner!"

He sighed: "It's great to have such an opportunity!"

Su Wudeng breathed a sigh of relief, "Then you take a look first, which one do you want to choose?"

The three were overjoyed. They returned to the breeding room and looked at the four kittens carefully around the incubator.

Each one is furry and soft, making people want to hold it in their arms.

Lin Meiling touched Coco's head, "Coco, you choose one."

Coco nodded happily, and she pointed at the glass with her little hand, "I want this one! Its eyes are the bluest, like the sky."

"Okay, then let's order this one!"

After Lin Meiling paid the deposit, Su Wudeng took out a small nameplate and tied it around the little cat's neck.

Coco looked at her name on the nameplate, and she felt more satisfied than ever before.

She carefully reached out her hand and gently stroked the kitten's head, "So warm and soft."

"From now on you are my kitten, Xiaoxue."

She made up her mind, "Kitten, no matter what happens in the future, I will protect you."

The kitten seemed to know something, it raised its head and drilled into Coco's palm, its blue eyes blinking.

Coco exclaimed, "Mom, look! It will actively use its head to nudge me!"

"Does it like Coco too?"
