Chapter 12 - The Clingy Little Creature (1)
Ye Qing looked at the kitty that came over here on its own and looked at her lunch box again.
The box was made from stainless steel and has a total of 4 tiers. The top three levels were all side dishes and the very bottom one was steamed rice.
She had already laid out the three layers of dishes one by one onto the table.
They were tofu and catfish, braised pork ribs, and a plate of vegetables. The vegetable plate comprised half greens and half eggplants.
In addition to all those dishes, there was another individually packed tomato and egg drop soup.
The thermal effect of the lunch box was quite good, and all the dishes were still warm. One could even see the steam under the light inside the room along with the delectable aroma that was enough to make one salivate.
Ye Qing bit gently on the chopsticks. Smelling the thick aroma of her dinner, she wondered if all cats back in the village have such good sense of smell.
She had barely just opened her lunch box, and the kitty found her place already.
But this cat looked to be someone’s pet, and it was very well behaved. It just sat there and looked at her food, but showed no intention of sneaking a bite.
It merely looked at her with its clear eyes and mewed at her a few times pathetically.
She must be begging for some food.
What a pathetic-looking little kitty.
Ye Qing was quite fond of these cute, little creatures.
While she was sun-bathing earlier today, she even watched some cat videos on Douyin.
She reached out and rubbed the fluffy head of the little kitty.
Its fur was soft and fine. she felt like she was rubbing a piece of a cloud.
Cotton Candy was still traumatized by her earlier experience even now. She was very worried that she might make a wrong move, and her mommy would throw her out the front door again.
But, looking at her mom’s tender and gentle smile and feeling how she was stroking her little head, she felt so comfortable right now that she forgot everything that had happened earlier in the day.
Squinting her deep, blue cat eyes, she lifted her head up a little and rubbed up against the palm of her mommy. “Meow~”
Ye Qing’s smile deepened. She patted the kitty one more time before pulling her hand away and started eating her dinner.
Cotton Candy was dumbfounded. She wanted her mommy to stroke her some more, but she was a good little kitty. She understood that mommy needed to eat, so she just sat there obediently keeping Ye Qing company.
Ye Qing picked up a piece of catfish, ate the flesh, and gave the little kitty a look. Smiling, she placed the fish bone in front of the kitty so she could have it.
Chen Mian looked at the fish bone, then at her mommy, then shuffled all four paws one step back.
She didn’t eat fish bones meow!
She ate the same as a human meow! She only ate fish meat meow!
Even thought she liked her mommy very, very much, and this was the fish bone from her mommy, she still wouldn’t eat it meow!
Ye Qing: “???”
She thought about it for a little and tossed the fish bone into the trashcan before she picked up the smallest piece of catfish and placed it in front of the little kitty.
And yet, the cat took another step backward alarmingly.
She only ate food that was placed in a bowl. The fish meat placed on the table was dirty. A hygienic cat like her wouldn’t eat something like that meow!
She’s already learned that she couldn’t just eat anything from her mommy casually because she might toss her out again afterward meow!
She already had dinner with her daddy. She was not hungry meow!
Ye Qing: “???”
Okay, she understood why the cat wouldn’t eat the fishbone, but she didn’t want fish meat that was so fresh either?
Then, what was this cat here for?
The world of cats was too mysterious to her.
She stopped trying to feed the cat and focused on eating her own dinner. She went to take a bath after she had picked everything up.
The little kitty was following her around the entire time, but she didn’t pay it too much attention. Then, with a “bang”, the little kitty was blocked out of the bathroom.
