Chapter 197 (2/2)

”Mom, Dad, let's not coant and graceful even ork”

Zhao Yao was the only person who could understand the cats' yowling He could not help but roll his eyes in response to their conversation

He gave Ah Wei a quick wave before entering his cafe to pack his belongings Then, it was finally tio home

As soon as he stepped foot into his house, a blur of orange rocketed straight for hi head first into his chest

”Zhao Yao!” Matcha cried, ”I'! Baiquan did not cook for us!”

The warmth and happiness that seeped into Zhao Yao's heart ier cat off him He had naively believed that Matcha had been worried for him

The rest of the supercats dispersed around the living room turned to him as well

”Hey, boss, are you alright? What did the inspector say?” Baiquan asked

He was the only one who showed any concern for his well-being

”Everything's fine You knoho I aet in et them to renovate our cafe and expand it”

”That's good,” Baiquan let out the breath he was holding, grinning, ”Boss, you ry I'll make dinner”

Zhao Yao nodded, then slumped wordlessly onto the couch He looked at the cats around him

Roly Poly had collapsed by the kitchen door, presu

Rice Cake, Dust Ball, and Mango were chasing each other around the house They were in high spirits Mango would evade capture by ju nimbly on the table and Dust Ball would hide beneath the couch

The strays were herded into their room, from which the occasional meow could be heard

Matcha was circling the kitchen, yowling at Baiquan to hurry up with his cooking

Zhao Yao could feel his body finally begin to relax as he watched the cats playing carefreely

”You guys don't have a care in the world, do you?” hehe could say the same for himself

The day had been eventful He was relieved that just by agreeing to join the bureau, he could keep his cats and reood terms with the authorities He knew that he could afford to strike such a good bargain because he was powerful If he wanted to keep the ball in his court, he had to remain that way

”I don't knohat the world will be like in the future Whatever it is, I need to grow stronger and keep leveling up That is the only way to protect myself as well as Matcha and the cats”

While he was deep in thought, Elizabeth had walked up to him quietly

”That girl, Sun Meng, what happens to her now?” she asked

”Sun Meng?” he thought about it, ”Well, she's been captured After a trial, she would probably be sentenced to life in prison The worst-case scenario would be capital punishment”

He turned to look at Elizabeth, ”You know her?”

”She owned the cattery I grew up in I knew her even before I akened”

Zhao Yao raised his eyebrows He did not expect that Elizabeth knew,

”How about the three ragdolls cats with her? What's going to happen to the

”The authorities would never kill powerful supercats,” Zhao Yao responded, ”Are they your relatives?”

Elizabeth nodded slowly ”It's very likely that they're my parents and sister”

”Don't worry,” Zhao Yao tried coet their hands on powerful supercats They would be in no danger In fact, they'll probably be paht even be fed better food than what you get here”

That did not work Elizabeth sighed

”I had run away froht that this would happen,” she said

Zhao Yao looked at her aardly ”Well, about that, I was actually intending to play a round of PUBG You don't have to tell me what happened if it's too much for you”

Elizabeth continued talking as if Zhao Yao never spoke at all, ”But Sun Meng wanted me to mate with some stupid cat to o through with that?”

Her voice got louder, ”He was this dull-witted, unawakened cat! His only redee!”

”Who's talking about me?” Matcha called from the kitchen

Zhao Yao yawned as he surrendered hi to listen to Elizabeth's tale

The su cattery She had always hoped to create dolls This did not change when Elizabeth's fa wanted to breedElizabeth with a handsodoll

Elizabeth was ada with this plan This resulted in a , which ended with Elizabeth running away from home The cat ended up on the streets, where she would cast an illusion so that she could travel further away by randomen City

Her story bored Zhao Yao to death He had seen this play out in a thousand different TV shows

However, his eyes widened when he noticed that an exclamation mark had appeared above Elizabeth's head
