Banxia thought that Yinzi had accidentally clicked on the video, so she kindly asked it, "What do you want to watch? I'll help you find it."
Silver patted the human cub on the tablet with its furry paws and looked at her expectantly.
Banxia: ...
For the first time, she doubted whether she had misunderstood the kitten's meaning, until Yinzi patted the human cub in the video again and confirmed that she had not misunderstood.
Banxia pinched the back of Yinzi's neck with a forced smile: "Good girl, if you like cubs, go have your own."
"What are you going to give birth to?" Nanxing, who was carrying the dishes in, only heard the last two words.
Banxia tossed Yinzi onto the sofa and then turned off the video: "Yinzi was just watching a video of kittens. I told it to like having one on its own."
Nanxing glanced at Yinzi with a complicated expression, coughed lightly, and whispered in Banxia's ear, "Wasn't Yinzi... sterilized? Can she still give birth under these circumstances?"
Banxia felt a pang of conscience for a couple of seconds for talking nonsense, then said crisply, "No."
Nanxing remained silent for a long while, until Banxia pulled him to the dining table before he came to his senses: "I should have known better than to send the gold and silver to the pet hospital..."
Banxia picked up a piece of food for him with her chopsticks: "I was just kidding. Yinzi is so aloof, how could it possibly like cubs? It probably just accidentally clicked on a video."
Nanxing nodded, her furrowed brows relaxing slightly.
Yinzi silently watched her sister spout nonsense from the sofa. After hesitating for a while, she decided not to get angry with her. She turned to Nanxing with a thoughtful expression. "I can't hit my sister, but I can't hit my brother..."
Nanxing accidentally met Yinzi's gaze, blinked in confusion, and was completely dumbfounded to see that it was still looking at him with murderous intent.
He didn't provoke Yinzi today, could it be that Yinzi overheard what he just said?
Nanxing guiltily looked away and discussed with Banxia, "I stewed several pots of bear paws. Let Jinzi and Yinzi eat them together tonight."
After witnessing the silent communication between the human and the cat, who were trying to understand each other perfectly, Banxia nodded guiltily, "Okay."
Silver wasn't something a little kitten could be bought off with a meal, unless that meal was incredibly delicious. After eating the fragrant and chewy mutated bear paw that evening, it generously decided to reconcile with its brother who could cook.
Nanxing breathed a huge sigh of relief; Yinzi's cold gaze was enough to send chills down one's spine.
The two had been out of town for half a month, and the outdoor temperature had dropped to minus seventy degrees Celsius, with snow covering the mountains and fields.
The two changed into extreme cold suits and rode snowmobiles back to the city.
Apart from the patrolling people, the streets were almost deserted, making the loudspeaker's warning extremely noticeable: "If you burn charcoal and don't open the windows, it'll be rock hard by tomorrow morning..."
Su Yao and the others had disappeared, leaving only Da Ju and Li Hua to guard the house.
Because of the cold weather, the two cats' fur has grown much longer and thicker, looking like two round fluffy balls from a distance. Banxia almost didn't recognize them.
As soon as the two cats saw Banxia, they excitedly ran over and rubbed against her legs.
Banxia rubbed her head and released the four creatures—Gold, Silver, Dumpling, and Peach—out of her spatial dimension: "You guys play, Nanxing and I will go back to the house to clean first."
The room has been unoccupied for half a month, so it must be covered in dust. I can't stay here tonight without cleaning it.
The two first lit the stove and the kang (a heated brick bed), and after the temperature in the room rose, they took off their extreme cold suits and put on more comfortable down jackets.
“Wife,” Nanxing handed the broom to Banxia, “you sweep the floor, I’ll wipe the dust.”
"Hmm," Banxia carefully swept away the dust from every nook and cranny, "Why haven't Sister Yunyun and the others come back yet?"
As if on cue, Su Yao's excited voice drifted from afar: "Nanxing, Banxia, you're finally back!"
Nanxing asked in confusion, "Hmm? Do you need something from us?"
"Hehehe!" Su Yao rushed into the house excitedly. "I bought two fun items at the trading market a few days ago, and I'm just waiting for you guys to come back so we can play together!"
Fang Yunyun, who was following behind, couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Not everyone loves to play like you."
She turned to Banxia and asked, "Have you dealt with all the mutated beasts?"
Banxia put the broom back in the corner: "We've dealt with some of it, and we're going to sell the rest to the base. How much are you going to get?"
Fang Yunyun replied with relief: "This time we harvested a lot of mutated beast meat, and the price is a little lower than the previous purchase price. Pure meat is 25 points per pound, and the fur is priced separately."
Banxia nodded: "I'll go sell them tomorrow."
After lunch, Su Yao mysteriously pulled out his "good stuff"—two complete sets of ski equipment and a wooden sled.
Nanxing couldn't help but facepalm: "What did you use to exchange it?"
Su Yao scratched the back of his head: "Five catties of mutated beast meat."
Banxia silently pulled out five brand-new sets of ski equipment: "Brother Yao, if you had said you liked skiing earlier, you wouldn't have had to spend money to buy them."
Su Yao glanced at his mediocre ski equipment, then at the professional ski equipment Banxia had pulled out, and was completely dumbfounded: "Where did you get this equipment?"
Of course, Banxia couldn't tell the truth: "It was found in City A."
Su Yao tried to save face: "You don't have a sled, do you?"
Banxia took out two exquisitely crafted sleds again and looked at him silently.
If you could hear the sound of a heart breaking, then Banxia and the others would definitely hear a loud "crack".
Cai Yuan coughed lightly, trying to smooth things over: "Where are we going to play?"
Nanxing thought for two seconds: "The hillside outside the city gate, I guess."
Without further ado, the group mounted their snowmobiles and drove to the city gate.
They encountered Yan Ning on patrol along the way. Yan Ning called out to them, "It's so cold, why are you still going out?"
Banxia and the others exchanged glances, a little embarrassed to admit that they had gone out to play instead of doing their jobs, and stammered without saying a word.
Su Yao had a sudden inspiration: "Let's go out and train our superpowers."
To train the running ability and weight-bearing capacity of several furry animals.
Yan Ning almost laughed, but didn't expose them: "Banxia, I have something I want to discuss with you. Are you going back to the city tonight?"
Banxia roughly guessed what it was about and nodded: "Go back."
Yan Ning waved to the group: "Alright, I'll continue my patrol then. I'll come to your house tonight."
After Yan Ning had gone some distance, the group continued on their way.
After leaving the city gate, they drove for several hundred meters more, and only stopped the car after confirming that the patrolling soldiers on the city wall could not see them.
Fang Yunyun got out of the car and jumped a few times: "Banxia, I heard that the base is short of people. Sister Ning probably wants to persuade you to stay tonight."
Banxia first put the snowmobile into her spatial storage, and then released the fluffy creatures: "I guessed it, but Nanxing and I aren't interested. We plan to leave after the extreme cold ends. What do you guys think?"
Fang Yunyun shook her head: "Although the base looks good, we've gotten used to a carefree life."
Cai Yuan put his arm around Nan Xing's shoulder: "Didn't we agree to stand together through thick and thin? Wherever you go, we'll go!"
