Snowball slipped out of Snowy's arms and walked towards the cat carrier curiously. It had heard a slight pur inside the cat carrier. It had a cat's scent, but the sound was different than a regular cat. Its curious nature urged it to find out where the sound came from.

”Meow.”

However, a black-and-white kitten stopped it on the way. It had to stop and examine it to see if the kitten was hostile.

It didn't see when the black-and-white kitten had showed up. It seemed to have appeared all of a sudden.

Snowball was not timid. Even facing Good-for-Nothing, a dog much bigger than itself, it fought bravely. Since Fina was there, however, it couldn't do anything it wanted.

The black-and-white kitten didn't seem like it intended to attack. Instead, it lifted a front paw and waved at it, as if it was greeting and asking Snowball to follow it.

Snowball looked at the cat carrier, then looked at the black-and-white kitten, wondering which one was more interesting.

”White kitty, black-and-white kitty…” Yue Yue waddled over and spoke unclearly with a grin on her face.

Snowball looked back at Yue Yue––it was that look that made it lose its advantage.

A furry paw tapped on its head gently. It turned its head back again and saw that the black-and-white kitten had gone up the shelf, as fast as smoke.

Snowball was furious after it was tricked. It left the cat carrier alone and dashed towards the black-and-white kitten, but the kitten was so fast and flexible, and it knew the place really well. It circled around the shelves in ”eight” shape. Sometimes it slipped under the shelves, making Snowball's chase very exhausting.

Yue Yue made a turn, and followed Snowball to the shelves.

Liu Wenying glanced and raised her voice. ”Yue Yue, be careful not to hit yourself.”

Yue Yue turned her head and said with a bright smile. ”White kitty. Black-and-white kitty…”

The girl was so obsessed with Ragdolls that she finally decided to live on nothing for the rest of the year. After getting enough money from credit cards and all sorts of Borrow & Lend apps, she finally purchased the Ragdoll kitten and asked Zhang Zian to give her more pet accessories. Then she marched to the cashier to pay, making the biggest purchase of her life.

After settling a deal, Zhang Zian was in a good mood. He asked her to pick some small accessories she liked on the shelves, such as food bowl, water bowl, etc.

After it saw someone coming towards the shelves, Galaxy turned around and ran upstairs.

Snowball was already tired of chasing––to the point that it had forgotten why it was chasing Galaxy in the first place. It stopped, out of breath, then turned back to Snowy for some comfort.

Zhang Zian had caught a glimpse of Galaxy and felt surprised. Galaxy usually hid upstairs when there were a lot of people on the first floor. Why was it playing on the first floor?

”Howl!”

Just then, a sharp scream broke the silence in the pet shop.

Everybody was shocked and stopped what they were doing. They looked around, wondering which cat was howling.

Some cats in the shop were active, while some were shy. But all of them were quiet, and only meowed gently even when they were not quiet. Did a stray cat come inside from the street?

The howl even woke up the snoozing Fina and Famous. Fina was especially upset. Who dared to do that right in front of its eyes?

Since there were too many cats in the shop, nobody knew where the sound came from at first. Only Yue Yue stumbled towards the cat carrier.

After a short while, another heart-tearing howl came out of the cat carrier. It was creepy to hear.

”Oh, Big Sister Wenying, your cat… seems to be very sick.” Zhao Qi shuddered at the howl. A chilling sensation crept up her back.

Liu Wenying was also confused. ”It's indeed very sick, but it has never screamed like this before…”

Zhang Zian came close to the cat carrier and looked inside through the screened window. It was too dark inside the carrier; he couldn't see anything.

Liu Wenying apologized to the customers around her. ”I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Did it frighten you? My cat never screams this way. I don't know what's wrong about it today… I think I should go and wait at the clinic.”

Wenying didn't want to bother the other customers, so Zhao Qi didn't want to bug her further.

Zhang Zian bent down in front of the cat carrier and activated the flashlight function on his phone. A bright cone of light lit up the cat carrier's inside.

After seeing the Siamese cat clearly, he was astonished. His hands started sweating.
