Chapter 310: Over the Great Wall

Song Bai hesitated for a while, but he decided to trust Black Flower.

He opened the door to his bedroom, ”Come in.”

Black Flower walked into this room with curiosity. The room seemed a bit dark because the curtains had been drawn, but that didn’t impact it very much.

Song Bai sat into the chair in front of the desk, put on a pair of headphones and said, ”I’m going to work now. Please be good.”

As soon as he got home, he imported the video clips from his SD card into the computer. Seeing that the transmission had been completed, he launched Final Cut Pro and began to edit the videos he recorded today.

Some vloggers tended to show their daily lives to the audience with little to no editing to their videos, but Song Bai preferred to make his content seem more coherent, so he edited every issue of his vlog painstakingly. He became increasingly adept at editing videos, and now he was focusing on the videos and the timeline slider on the computer screen.

Black Flower walked around the room, which was completely different from the pet shop. There was no smell it was familiar with to make it feel at ease. Black Flower raised its head to look at its new owner, who was sitting in front of a computer. His upper body was slightly tilted forwards, mouth opening a little bit, eyes swiftly moving from left to right, and he would swallow saliva from time to time.

”Meow” cried out Black Flower gently.

Song Bai didn't hear it.

”Meow”

This time Song Bai heard it, and lowered his head to look at it.

”Black Flower, go play by yourself, I have things to do,” answered Song Bai perfunctorily. He turned back to focus on the computer screen blinking with videos. In the dark room, the lights glowing on the screen were reflected on his face, which was changing into different colors constantly.

Black Flower found a bit lonely that its owner didn't play with it.

Back in the pet shop, Black Flower never felt lonely, for a group of kittens always kept its company. They chased and played with each other and rolled together on the ground. When their fur became dirty, they would lick each other’s fur for each other. Whenever it was tired or thirsty, Black Flower would run to drink from the water bowls prepared for them in a corner. When they needed to pee or poop, the kittens would go to the other corner where there was cat litter, and there were two young men responsible for cleaning their litter. Its life in the pet shop was so free and happy!

But the puppies were different. Black Flower thought those puppies were very sad, for they were always locked in the display cases. They would stick their tongues out and look at the kittens eagerly as the kittens were playing happily outside. They didn't even have freedom when it came to peeing or pooping. There was nothing Black Flower could help them with; besides, it didn't want those puppies to occupy their places to play.

Sometimes that special black and white kitten would join their games. It would chase the kittens or ask the kittens to find it, and it was always the winner. Black Flower felt it was fun to play with, and every other kitten seemed to like the kitten in black and white.

At only rare moments, the proud and solemn Queen of the Cats would show up in front of them and teach them some movements they must remember. Black Flower, along with the other kittens, squatted on the ground and listened carefully to the Queen’s instructions. It didn't know who the Queen was, but there was some voice inside its body that kept telling it that in front of it was the Queen, and it must obey the Queen’s orders unconditionally.

As for the owner of the pet shop... he didn’t leave much impression on Black Flower; rather, he seemed more like a servant to the Queen.

The new owner was saying something into the microphone in a language other than Chinese. It was a language that Black Flower didn't understand at all but had heard the parrot in the pet shop spoke before. The new owner seemed very busy and had no time to play, so Black Flower decided to find fun for itself.

Black Flower tilted its head and saw a strange thing in the corner of the bookshelf that it had never seen in the pet shop before.

Black Flower ran over to the shelf, gave a push to the thing, and it landed on the ground.

That was a slightly curved board with some skate wheels beneath it. With a simple push, it began to slide smoothly.

Black Flower stepped onto the board. At first, it was hard to keep its balance. Black Flower was frightened and jumped off the board.

The board changed course slightly, bumped into the wall, bounced back, and stopped on the ground.

Black Flower observed it for a while. Making sure the board would cause it no harm, it trotted closer to the board, and stretched out its paws to push the board.

The board glided backwards because of the reaction, and when the board bypassed Black Flower, it jumped onto that again. The board slowed down with Black Flower on it. This time, Black Flower stood very stably for it had learned to use its tail to keep its balance. However, the width of the room was limited, and the board was about to bump into the wall on the other side.

Black Flower jumped off the board before crashing into the wall.

Influenced by the reaction, the board changed course and was heading to the owner's feet.

Black Flower tried to stop the board but there's no time for that. It worried that the owner would get angry for he didn't want to be disturbed.

In the past, Song Bai’s English was very poor, especially when speaking. If he had gained anything after becoming a vlogger…apart from those bunches of digital devices and his proficiency in video editing, his biggest improvement would be his oral English. Although sometimes foreign audience members left comments to complain about his English, at least he was much better than he used to be.

He had just finished narrating for the video in English. Just when he was about to add subtitles, he felt something slightly hit his ankle.

He lowered his head. Turned out it was his skateboard.

Why was his skateboard here?

”Meow,” whispered Black Flower.
