Chapter 52: Meow
Everyone was charmed by the little cub’s action and finally understood his purpose.
So he wanted to cast a kitten spell to make fur grow on the human’s bald head.
Jing Zhi quickly remembered that Jing Mimi refused to cut his hair before, saying he wanted to give his hair to the children without hair.
Perhaps in his subconscious, he hadn’t distinguished the identities of humans and kittens yet. Cat fur and human hair were all “fur” in his eyes.
Miss Bai smiled and took a few photos of her boyfriend with cat fur on his head. Her boyfriend also looked at the camera happily, curious about his current appearance.
Jing Zhi also took a photo for Jiang Suifeng and shared this interesting thing with Mr. Jiang who was working at the company.
The little orange cat also came over curiously. Still a bit wary of the two strangers, it carefully approached Jing Mimi’s leg and poked its little head out to observe the two.
Seeing this, Miss Bai took out the cat treat prepared in her pocket and squatted down.
Not long after, the little orange cat, like the little glutton Mimi used to be, was lured by the cat treat and approached.
Although humans hurt it, humans also saved it. It wasn’t completely disheartened with this species.
Miss Bai tried to touch its little head, and it didn’t dodge. Looking at its empty tailbone, her heart ached.
After her previous cat was tortured and killed, she hadn’t moved on and didn’t raise a new cat.
She decided to adopt the little orange cat because the cat abuser had been caught and punished by the law, and this poor kitten was also a victim of the cat abuser’s persecution. She failed to save her previous kitten, so she hoped this kitten with a similar experience to her previous one could live a happy and healthy life for the rest of its cat life.
So, she thought for a long time and decided to adopt this kitten and take care of it personally.
Jing Zhi was also very happy to hear this. There was no adopter who made him more reassured than Miss Bai.
Not long after, the little orange cat became familiar with Miss Bai and her boyfriend. It stayed obediently when held in their arms and didn’t run away.
After getting familiar, the two didn’t disturb much longer. They left the small cake they brought and prepared to leave. Before leaving, Miss Bai glanced at the door opposite and said, “Is Mr. Zhu better?”
Because of squatting during that time, Zhu Shan caught a cold and got sick. Later, he didn’t talk much in the small group for catching the cat abuser.
Jing Zhi shook his head and said, “He doesn’t seem to be living here these days. I’ll ask him as soon as he comes back.”
Miss Bai nodded. “When he comes back, I’ll treat you guys to a meal.”
Catching the cat abuser this time was the joint effort of everyone, indispensable.
She had heard a little about Zhu Shan’s past, but not all imprisonment meant absolute unforgivable evil. People should be given a chance to turn over a new leaf.
In this matter, she could feel the kind and soft side of the other party.
Jing Zhi didn’t refuse either, smiling and saying, “Okay.”
Jing Mimi, who was devouring a piece of pudding in his hand, instantly pricked up his little ears.
He still remembered the mission of inviting Uncle Zhu Shan to have a meal at home.
When Uncle came back, he must seize the opportunity to complete the mission.
Jing Mimi reluctantly looked at the little orange cat in the air carrier held by the bald uncle, then scooped up another mouthful of pudding and stuffed it into his mouth.
The dessert made by the bald uncle is just too delicious…
Although a bit reluctant to part with Little Orange, Little Orange was going to a new home to live a happier cat life, so he was still very happy for it.
With a gentle auntie as mother and an uncle who could make small desserts as father, Little Orange would definitely become a very, very happy kitten.
As a kitten big brother, he would also visit Little Orange often.
No, Auntie gave Little Orange a new name, Little Tail.
It should be called Little Tail now.
With a new name and a new home, the bond between humans and cats could no longer be separated.
…
On the first day Little Tail left, Jing Mimi wasn’t quite used to it.
But thinking that tomorrow was the weekend and he could go to Brother Qiuqiu’s house to play, his mood rose again. He couldn’t sleep and rolled around on the small bed for a while.
Jiang Suifeng was secretly kissing Jing Zhi in his arms in the dark. Hearing the little cub rolling around, he was startled and quickly left the lips of the person in his arms.
Observing for a while and finding no sign of getting up on the small bed, Jiang Suifeng wanted to continue the kiss, but Jing Zhi suddenly turned over and dodged.
Obviously, Jing Zhi was also startled by the little cub’s rolling movement and wouldn’t let him kiss anymore.
Jiang Suifeng kissed the top of Jing Zhi’s head unwillingly, comforting himself in his heart: Mimi is going to play at Qiuqiu’s house tomorrow. He will have plenty of time to do more intimate things with Jing Zhi. Endure tonight, it will be fine tomorrow.
Jiang Suifeng comforted himself like this until he fell asleep.
At night, he had a dream. He dreamed that he could finally have couple time with Jing Zhi and do some intimate things.
But Jing Zhi told him that they were both neutered adult cats and couldn’t do that kind of thing anymore.
Jiang Suifeng was scared awake.
After waking up, he touched himself there, then worriedly touched the sleeping Jing Zhi there, and finally breathed a huge sigh of relief.
…
The next day, not-so-heavy snowflakes drifted outside, like pure fireworks falling rustlingly, welcoming something beautiful.
Early in the morning, Jiang Suifeng and Jing Zhi drove Jing Mimi to Wang Qiuqiu’s house.
For the couple time they had been longing for day and night, the two dropped off the little cub and left with the excuse of having something to do.
Jing Mimi couldn’t wait to get out of the car, carrying the gift for Brother Qiuqiu—a beautiful crystal ball that played music.
Wang Qiuqiu’s home was a large detached villa. He was waiting for him at the gate of the villa courtyard, visible from afar.
Seeing Jing Mimi get out of the car, he couldn’t wait to hold his small hand.
Jing Zhi and Jiang Suifeng watched him enter the gate in the courtyard before leaving.
Wang Qiuqiu couldn’t wait to open the gift box and take out the crystal ball inside.
The music of the crystal ball was the melody of “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.”
Jing Mimi hummed along with the melody, but sang the Chinese version.
Wang Qiuqiu knew he didn’t like English now and never spoke any English in front of him again.
Besides Wang’s father and Wang’s mother, there was also a nanny auntie in Wang Qiuqiu’s house, responsible for cooking and cleaning, taking care of their daily life.
Before Jing Mimi arrived, she had already tidied up the children’s room and prepared many snacks for them.
According to Wang Qiuqiu’s request, she put all the puppy dolls into the high cabinet. Wang Qiuqiu checked carefully again, missing nothing.
Jing Mimi played with many toys he hadn’t played with before. Among them, he liked a toy flower that could record sound the most.
He recorded several songs he was good at in it.
When playing the recording, the toy flower would twist and turn, very fun.
Wang Qiuqiu wasn’t good at singing and always went off-key. After this, the toy flower always contained songs recorded by Mimi.
After Mimi left, he would listen to them one by one when he had nothing to do, until a long time later, when the adult Mimi recorded a few new love songs in it.
But at that time, he didn’t need to rely on this to listen to Mimi singing anymore. Anytime, anywhere, he could hear Mimi singing.
After recording songs, the two little cubs went to the courtyard together and used the kitten mold Jing Mimi brought to make little snow cats.
The mold was custom-made for him by Big Papa when he was in the welfare institute. Later, when he returned home, he specially went downstairs to make little snow cats and put them in the refrigerator at home so they wouldn’t melt, and he could see them anytime he wanted.
He specially brought the mold over, wanting to make some little snow cats in Brother Qiuqiu’s courtyard too. Brother Qiuqiu’s courtyard was very big, and he liked it very much, but it was empty inside, not very lively. With the addition of little snow cats, it was much better.
Wang Qiuqiu put one of the most perfectly made little snow cats into the refrigerator at home, visible as soon as the door opened.
Afraid they would freeze outside, they were called back after playing with snow for a while, drank some warm ginger tea, and watched the cartoon Big Ear Tutu on TV.
One episode was about “ideals.”
Tutu asked what an ideal was.
Mom answered that an ideal is what Tutu wants to do and what kind of person he wants to become when he grows up.
Tutu said he wanted to make ice cream and become an ice cream expert when he grew up.
Dad said this ideal was good; maybe Tutu could really become an ice cream master in the future.*
Jing Mimi turned his little head immediately and asked: “What is Brother Qiuqiu’s ideal?”
Wang Qiuqiu answered without hesitation: “Become a sketch artist, draw the appearance of more bad guys, and catch them.”
He used to be a puppy police officer upholding justice, and he wanted to continue engaging in the field he loved in the future, continuing to be a sketch artist in the police station.
Jing Mimi exclaimed “Wow,” “Definitely possible! Brother Qiuqiu discovered the bad cat abuser this time. Brother Qiuqiu is the most amazing.”
Wang Qiuqiu sipped the ginger tea shyly, blooming with joy in his heart. Soon, he threw the question back and asked: “What is Mimi’s ideal?”
He thought he would get an answer related to music, but unexpectedly…
Jing Mimi said: “I want to open a cat rescue station to rescue more kittens.”
In this way, fewer and fewer kittens would die. Kittens would go to Planet Meow happily without regrets, and the wishes left on Earth would decrease accordingly. The Cat God wouldn’t be so busy.
Wang Qiuqiu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then broke into a smile and said, “Then I’ll draw portraits for all the cats in Mimi’s rescue station.”
Jing Mimi’s eyes curved too. “Okay.”
In a place invisible to the two little cubs, the Cat God and the Dog God looked at each other, their eyes full of soft emotions.
…
When an episode of the cartoon was about to end, the doorbell of Wang Qiuqiu’s house rang suddenly. The nanny auntie got up immediately and opened the door.
Not long after, a small figure rushed over quickly.
Wang Qiuqiu became alert instantly.
Why is this person here?!
Coming at any other time would be fine… why pick the time when Mimi is visiting?
Going to make Mimi unhappy again later.
Sure enough, before Wang Qiuqiu could rush over to cover his mouth, he had already spoken: “Who is he?” (in English)
He said it to Wang Qiuqiu, asking who Jing Mimi beside him was.
Jing Mimi was stunned.
The child in front of him… actually had almost the same hair color as him!
But the other party had curly hair, slightly different from his hair.
Plus he was speaking English. Although Jing Mimi didn’t understand much, the answer was already clear—
“Mimi, he is my cousin. His mother is British. If you don’t like him, I’ll make him leave right now.” Wang Qiuqiu’s words completely confirmed his guess.
