Chapter 392: This Cat is in the Atmosphere
“Isn’t this our adorable Mimi? What brings you to see Big Sister today?” The door opened, and Li Li was immediately scooped up into a hug.
“Because this cat is struggling to make ends meet. I can’t find a meal anywhere, and I’m going to starve to death if this continues.” Li Li said helplessly, his ears drooping, perfectly illustrating the meaning of dejected.
“It can’t be that bad, right? Even though your popularity has dropped a lot compared to before, with the connections you’ve built on Commercial Street, you won’t starve to death.”
Liu Yun, who heard this, said, “Mimi, you’ve built up so many connections over the years, how could you starve so easily?”
“Because Big-Faced Cat wanted to get something for nothing and was too lazy to beg for food. He pretended to be disabled, hoping people would give him food, but his plan backfired. Not only did no one give him anything, but now everyone wants him to lose weight.” Le Le said with a chuckle.
Big-Faced Cat wanted an easy life, but now not only did he fail, but he didn’t even have food to eat and had to go hungry.
“So that’s how it is. I saw a video of you with a broken leg recently, and I thought you couldn’t possibly break your leg.” Liu Yun said, unable to help but laugh.
So Mimi was digging his own grave. Well, it served him right. It was the price he had to pay.
“You think this cat is so strong that they think I’m fat? Besides, I clearly jumped off the stairs and broke my leg. They made it seem like I broke my leg because I was too fat.”
Li Li said with a deep sense of grievance, his already large face and double chin combining to appear even larger.
“Hahaha, who told you to like pretending? Besides, you’ve been on the hot search before because of your weight.” Liu Yun said, bursting into laughter.
“Okay, Big Sister, stop gloating. You must have something delicious here, right? Hurry up and give this cat something to eat. This cat is so hungry my chest is sticking to my back.”
Hearing Liu Yun’s laughter, Li Li said with a black line across his head.
“Alright, alright, Big Sister will take you to eat. I just made Red Braised Pork today, you can have a few big bowls.” Liu Yun said with a smile, rubbing Li Li’s big belly as she walked into the room.
Le Le, seeing this, immediately followed.
“Wow! It smells so good. Big Sister’s Red Braised Pork is the best.”
Smelling the aroma of Red Braised Pork, Li Li’s mouth watered. He knew coming to Big Sister’s place was the right choice, he definitely wouldn’t leave empty-handed.
“You glutton, you only remember that my food is the most fragrant when you can’t find a meal anywhere else.” Liu Yun said in mock anger, putting Li Li down.
Hearing this, Li Li immediately rubbed against Liu Yun’s hand and said, “No way! No way! This cat misses Big Sister even when I can find food. In this cat’s heart, Big Sister is the best.”
“Really? Then why don’t you move in with Big Sister? You said you wanted to come live with me.” Liu Yun asked, pinching Li Li’s round face.
“Well, plans can’t always keep up with changes, right? Who knew the Shovel Officer and Sister Xiaohui still haven’t gotten married?” Li Li sighed, indicating that he was also helpless.
Once the Shovel Officer and Sister Xiaohui got married, he could come and live with Big Sister.
Then he could have delicious food every day. How comfortable would that be?
“Can’t you urge them a little? And can’t you live with me even if they’re not married?” Liu Yun said in mock anger, pinching Li Li’s round face.
“Of course I can, but I’ve been very busy lately. I’m busy training the little guys every night, and then every few days I have to take them to attack a new world.” Li Li, being pinched, replied, indicating that he was willing but unable.
“Then leave a clone to accompany Big Sister. You have so many clones, surely you can spare one to accompany me after class, right?”
Liu Yun said, pinching Li Li’s big tail as if she was going to create another Li Li.
“Big Sister, let go first. I’ll leave a clone for you, but this clone can only exist for a certain amount of time before it disappears.”
Li Li, hearing this, said. Leaving a flesh and blood clone was definitely not realistic.
He still had to fight in other worlds, and if he left a flesh and blood clone, it would definitely leave a weakness. If he was defeated because of this, it would not be good. It was better to leave a hair clone for Big Sister.
Although it was temporary, at least it wouldn’t have any impact on him.
“Whether it disappears or not, leave me the clone first.” Liu Yun, hearing this, said as she put Li Li down.
“Okay, I understand.” Li Li nodded in response and pulled out a hair. Then he breathed out, and the hair quickly expanded.
Within a few seconds, it had transformed into a chubby Tabby Cat.
“Big-Faced Cat, you have this skill? Then make one for me too.” Le Le, seeing this scene, was amazed.
“I’m afraid that’s not possible. If there were two identical cats, wouldn’t it be exposed?” Li Li refused, hearing this.
“And if you really want to see my clone, you can just come to Sister Liu Yun.”
What a joke! If two clones appeared, wouldn’t his identity be exposed if someone saw them?
“Alright, since Big-Faced Cat said so, then I won’t ask for one now.” Le Le said after hearing this.
“Yes, that’s right.” Li Li nodded his big head and started eating from his bowl.
“Eat slowly, eat slowly. Don’t eat the bowl as well. No one’s going to fight you for it. Do you have to eat like this?” Liu Yun said with a smile, petting Li Li’s big head and telling him to eat slowly.
“I can’t eat slowly, Big Sister. Do you know how I got here today? None of those merchants gave this cat a single bite to eat. It’s really heartbreaking.”
“When they need this cat, they call me Lucky Cat, and when they don’t need me, they treat me like this. It’s really heartbreaking.”
Li Li complained while gobbling down his food, saying that they were really ungrateful.
“You can’t say that. Everyone not giving you food is also for your health. Who told you to gain so much weight?”
“And you don’t want to expose the fact that you’re a demon. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many problems.”
Liu Yun said with a smile. Ordinary cats and dogs would definitely have health problems if they were too fat, but demons wouldn’t.
Fat Plum didn’t want to expose himself and just wanted to eat and drink for free, so he should have expected this situation.
“This cat is afraid of scaring them, after all, many of the people who like this cat are elderly.” Li Li said, smacking his lips and using his paws to scoop the rice with his spoon.
I have to say, this Red Braised Pork with rice is really fragrant.
“Actually, what you’re saying now wouldn’t scare them at all. There are already quite a few people online saying that you’re so smart that you’ve probably already become a spirit, so even if you admit that you’re a demon now, I’m afraid not many people would be scared.”
Le Le added, hearing this.
Big-Faced Cat didn’t think that no one had guessed he was a demon, did he? He was clearly too smart, wasn’t he?
“Really? Then that’s a problem. This cat can’t deliberately act stupid.” Li Li said helplessly.
“So, Mimi, why don’t you just be honest? It’s not like demons are so unwelcome among humans now.” Liu Yun suggested.
If Mimi announced his demon identity, it would save him a lot of trouble. And he had been getting along with everyone for years, so she believed they wouldn’t be afraid of him becoming a demon.
After all, it was like the cat or dog in their home suddenly becoming a spirit.
Although it would be unbelievable, they wouldn’t be afraid. Instead, they might feel closer to him.
“Let’s talk about it later. When there’s no other choice, it’s about time to tell them.” Li Li shook his head and said, not really wanting to expose his identity. He just wanted to leave everyone with a good memory.
“Alright, then let’s do as Mimi says. But you can’t find food anywhere now, what are you going to do?”
Liu Yun asked after hearing this. Mimi couldn’t get food anywhere now. He couldn’t keep trying every day, could he?
“This cat has decided to go to another world for a while and come back later. I’ll appear in front of everyone with a brand new look, making them think this cat has successfully lost weight.” Li Li, being asked, came up with an excuse he had already prepared.
Since he couldn’t get food here, he would go somewhere else.
After ten days or half a month, when he came back, maybe they would miss him, and then he would be able to get food.
“Like this? Then you should tell your Shovel Officer, right? Otherwise, everyone will think you’re missing.” Liu Yun reminded him.
After all, Mimi was a big internet celebrity. If he suddenly disappeared, Li Hao would probably be annoyed to death, right?
“I’ll let him know later. As for the video, could you help me film a couple of shots, Big Sister? To prove that this cat is training hard and trying to lose weight.” Li Li said, licking his plate clean.
“Okay, no problem. But your clone has to cooperate.”
Liu Yun said, holding Li Li’s clone. The clone in her arms raised its paw.
“This cat promises to cooperate! Big Sister, don’t worry. This cat will let them know what it means for the king to return.”
“Really? That’s good.” Liu Yun nodded with a smile.
—
“Huh? Li Li, you’re planning to run away? You don’t have to go, I can support you. Just tell me what you want to eat, and I’ll buy it for you.”
Li Hao, hearing that Li Li was planning to run away, said somewhat frantically.
He couldn’t live without Li Li, just like a fish couldn’t live without water. If he left Li Li, how could he live?
“This cat will be gone for at most three months. Do you have to be like this?” Li Li said in mock anger, pressing down on Li Hao who was leaning in, and said to Wu Xiaohui, “Sister, come and help me pull him away. Don’t let him bother this cat. This cat is preparing to run away.”
“I’m afraid that’s not possible. If I do that, Li Hao will probably hold a grudge against me. It’s better for you two to solve it yourselves.” Wu Xiaohui shook her head and said, watching this scene with amusement.
“Li Li, you and I have depended on each other for years, can you really bear to abandon me?” Li Hao asked, holding Li Li’s paw.
“Who said I’m abandoning you? This cat just said that I’m going to spend a few months in another world and then come back.” Li Li said, breaking free from Li Hao’s hand, and disappeared with a jump.
“While this cat is away, Sister Liu Yun has my clone. If you want to see this cat, you can go see my clone.”
“Li Li, you can’t just abandon me like this, you can’t!”
Li Hao shouted sadly, looking as if he had been abandoned.
“Alright, that’s enough.” Wu Xiaohui said, speechless, as she picked up Li Hao. Still sad? There wasn’t even a single tear.
“Uh, how did you find out, Xiaohui?” Li Hao asked, stunned.
He couldn’t understand how she had seen through his exquisite acting skills and discovered that he was faking his sadness.
“Isn’t it obvious? You didn’t shed a single tear, and people who are truly sad don’t shout so loudly.” Wu Xiaohui said in mock anger, indicating that she had watched hundreds of TV series, and it was like a fool’s dream to think that he could deceive her with this little bit of acting.
“Alright, it seems my acting skills still need some work. But Li Li left too quickly.” Li Hao sighed, wiping his nose.
“Of course, Fat Cat has his own thoughts. We can’t control him. Besides, he already told you beforehand.”
“But you don’t seem very sad. What’s going on?”
The cat was obviously not an honest cat, especially since he had already told him, so naturally, he wouldn’t hesitate to leave.
She hadn’t expected him to pretend to be sad. She had thought he would be truly sad.
“Because I expected it. Li Li is leaving for longer and longer periods now. It used to be three to five days to a week, and then it became ten days to half a month.” Li Hao said helplessly.
He didn’t want to act anymore, but he had no choice. He was already used to it.
He also had to act sad if he wanted to be sad now.
“Well, this is probably Fat Cat’s ‘boiling the frog in warm water’ method, gradually making you adapt and get used to him leaving, and finally completely separating from him.” Wu Xiaohui, hearing this, nodded thoughtfully.
I have to say, Fat Cat’s move was quite effective.
At least for now, Li Hao was very receptive to it, and now he basically had no reaction.
“Uh, you mean Li Li did this on purpose?” Li Hao asked, stunned.
He originally thought he was on the second level, but he didn’t expect Li Li to be on the tenth level already.
“Unless Fat Cat is a stupid cat, otherwise, you can’t hide your little actions from him. Don’t think he’s so easy to fool. You know, when it comes to acting, he’s ten streets ahead of you.” Wu Xiaohui said, looking at Li Hao.
Li Hao was stunned.
His mind was suddenly flooded with Li Li’s actions these days.
He instantly felt that what she said was the truth, and for a moment, he looked out the window, lost in thought.
