After getting off the plane, Zhang Zian first went to the bathroom in the airport, and turned Richard into the invisible state—unless something unexpected arose, in the United States, Richard would always act in the invisible state.
When they left the airport, the rain had stopped, yet the chilly wind was still blowing. Face-tightened, Fina kept its distance five meters away from Zhang Zian, losing its temper because of being cheated by him.
Zhang Zian felt very helpless. He was not omnipotent; how could he predict the weather half a world away? Today just happened to be a rainy and windy day!
As soon as he left the airport, Zhang Zian stretched his neck and looked around. Lauren and Tim, who had come back to the United States, said they were to pick him up here, and he had to find a way to find them. However, Los Angeles, after all, was an international metropolis. With people coming and leaving the airport, it was still difficult to pinpoint particular people—that was not precisely the reason. In fact, it was mainly because Zhang Zian involuntarily kept staring at the blonde girls…Caucasian women indeed were slender and taller!
”Hey! Jeff!” Tim, the big guy, spotted him first and waved his arms.
Zhang Zian also waved his hand.
Since Richard had threatened him with Tim, he had always had a hard time looking at Tim directly...
Beside Tim was standing a young white man of medium height with a baseball cap and freckles all over his face. He was holding a sign listlessly upon which written with Chinese characters: Zhang Liaoan.
Liaoan?! Why not just change my whole name? Zhang Zian wondered which Chinese beginner had created this...
Zhang Zian walked towards them with his luggage. Tim warmly introduced, ”Jeff, this is my employee, Allen. Allen, this is the fantastic Chinese cat trainer, Jeff...”
Before he finished his introduction, he saw that Zhang Zian had taken out a pen, and added a stroke to the middle of the character ,”Liao”, on the sign, turning it into the first syllable of his name, ”Zi”.
”Sorry for writing your name incorrectly.” Tim understood what had happened and said embarrassedly.
”It doesn’t matter. Allen, right? Hello.” Zhang Zian shook hands with Tim and Allen respectively.
”Jeff, you can stay in my house while you are in the United States. If you want to tour around, you can ask Allen to keep you company,” said Tim.
Allen nodded reluctantly towards Zhang Zian. Apparently, he was disgruntled by the task of being assigned to part from his regular responsibilities.
Noticing Fina, Tim asked surprisingly, ”You brought your cat?”
”I hope she can have fun.” Richard said the answer which they had prepared in advance for Zhang Zian, ”I’m invited to attend the CFA tournament, remember? I should at least bring a cat, so no one will suspect me.”
”Oh...” Tim wanted to tell him that this cat was probably a hybrid Egyptian Mau, which might not gain any rewards in the competition. In fact, it may not evenbe eligible for participation at all. But Tim held back these words.
In his opinion, professionally, Zhang Zian’s pet shop, which was best, top-notch store in the amateur community, couldn’t rival with his cattery at all. If Zhang Zian didn’t possess the mysterious and ancient cat training techniques, there would have been no way that Zhang Zian would have ever had contact with Tim’s Blue Climax at all. Anyway, it would be beneficial for Zhang Zian to attend the CFA tournament to learn from the setbacks.
”Right, this is a gift.” Zhang Zian took an air box for pet from behind and handed it to Tim.
Inside the air box was a black Dragon Li kitten, which was from the same litter as the kitten bought by Song Bai, so their appearances and sizes were very similar, but this one was quieter.
”Wow! Thank you so much! You're so kind!” Tim took over the air box and looked at the kitten inside. ”Right, can it...”
”Yes, it can dance,” replied Richard for of him.
”Great! I’ve been struggling to choose a gift for my niece lately for Thanksgiving. Can I give it to her as a present? She would be very happy to get a dancing kitten!” Tim said excitedly.
”It's yours, you can transfer it to anyone,” said Richard.
”OK, thank you! Come on, let's go, my car is over there!”
