Chapter 49 Mint Ca (1/2)
”Mr. Gao, are you free today?” Gao Peng received a call from Liu Senlin right after he left school.
”What is it?” Gao Peng stopped.
”I would like to invite you to a meal. I have a few other friends who will be attending as well. I hope you can grace us with your presence and allow me to introduce them to you.” A hint of flattery could be heard from Liu Senlin's end of the line.
But it was hard to blame him for that. After all, the survival of his company rested largely in the hands of Gao Peng.
Gao Peng thought for a bit. There was still quite a bit of food in the refrigerator, so he did not need to worry about Dumby starving at home.
”Alright, I am free today, I'll be there-” before Gao Peng could finish, a black sedan in front of the school gate slowly drove over and stopped in front of him.
The car windows wound down. Liu Senlin was sitting inside, all smiles.
”Sorry for troubling you.” Gao Peng put Da Zi in the trunk then took a seat in front. It was only then that he noticed that there was a 17-18 year old girl sitting in the back seat. She had neat, shoulder-length hair.
”It's no trouble at all. It's on the way, actually,” replied Liu Senlin with a laugh. ”My daughter coincidentally also studies at your school. I'm here to fetch her today.”
”This is the second time you've been to my school this year. The first time was on the first day of school,” muttered Liu Zhaoyu from the backseat quietly.
Liu Senlin kept silent.
Mao. At this moment, the sound of a cat's meow came from the back.
This cat's meowing was a little unorthodox. Instead of the usual ”meow,” it went ”mao.”
Liu Zhaoyu gently stroked the chin of a white, long-tailed cat sitting in her lap. The cat's eyes squinted happily and it lazily lied on its owner's lap without moving at all. She looked curiously at Gao Peng, who was sitting in front.
This person was from the same school and looked around her age, but he could actually make her father personally drive over to their school.
Gao Peng leaned back on his seat and began to nod off, but Liu Senlin suddenly spoke from the driver's seat. ”Mr. Gao, if you have the time, do you think you could help Zhaoyu and take a look at her Familiar?”
Liu Zhaoyu was surprised. How did she get suddenly involved in this?
”I'll be in my studio this Saturday and Sunday. She can come find me at my studio this weekend,” replied Gao Peng.
”Mm.” Liu Senlin kept quiet afterwards, concentrating on his driving. The atmosphere in the car turned silent.
After a short while, the sedan stopped at the entrance of a neighborhood. Liu Senlin turned around and spoke to Liu Zhaoyu. ”Go home first, ok? I still have some stuff to do with Uncle Gao.”
Through the car windows, Gao Peng managed to see the Familiar that Liu Zhaoyu was carrying in her arms. It was a large, long-tailed white cat that was around a foot and a half long. Its eyes were squinting as it lay in Liu Zhaoyu's arms, but they were crystal clear, like green-colored amber.

A cat Familiar. That was a rare sight.
After the cataclysm, many cat species underwent mutations, but almost all of them became uncontrollable.
It should be known that cats are said to be insane animals, and that it is not possible to know what goes on in their minds. Especially after they went through mutations and gained greater intelligence; they simply became more insane.
After the cataclysm, many cat monsters fled the human-inhabited cities, making cat Familiars a rare sight.
The sedan left the neighborhood and headed towards the outskirts of the city.
”Who are these friends of yours?” Gao Peng asked curiously.
