Su Li didn’t check Miss Cat’s Cell Phone; she simply placed it on the table, then leaned back on the sofa.
Even though several cats cozily crowded near her, she just patted their heads.
Miss Cat, perhaps because she was a bit reserved, didn’t take long in the bath.
After changing into clean clothes, she washed her towel and hung it on the Balcony.
“Do you want to go back to your room and sleep?”
Seeing Su Li leaning on the sofa, Miss Cat spoke with a hint of concern.
“Mm. You should rest early too.”
With that, Su Li stood up and left. Miss Cat watched her leave, then glanced at the cats on the sofa.
She didn’t know what Su Li was thinking, only that Su Li seemed exhausted.
Just like the Miss Cat’s Pooper-Scooper in her dreams—there was hardly any expression on the Pooper-Scooper’s face. She couldn’t understand it.
Maybe she never really understood humans at all?
Thinking this, Miss Cat looked at the Cell Phone on the table.
Actually, she still wasn’t very good at using the device.
Ever since she’d woken up, the only thing by her side was the Cell Phone, but she had still managed to figure out how to communicate with humans.
So, she imitated Miss Cat’s Pooper-Scooper from her dreams, searching for a job while supporting herself.
Miss Cat knew that money was an important thing.
After all, Miss Cat’s Pooper-Scooper had always been busy and running about for money.
So she tried to follow that example, working hard to find a job, working hard at her part-time jobs.
She carefully set aside the Cat Food on the table, and as she watched the playful cats, she felt a bit tired.
She’d usually be energetic at night, but maybe because she’d been working during the day recently, she didn’t have much energy at night anymore.
She glanced around the room. When she saw there was nothing else to do, she went to the room Su Li had prepared for her and lay down on the bed.
The bed was big and soft—she wasn’t used to it at first.
But soon, Miss Cat felt herself wrapped in warmth, and slowly drifted into Dreamland.
In Dreamland, she once again encountered her Pooper-Scooper.
This time, she seemed to see his face a bit more clearly.
He looked a lot like Su Li.
Or rather, like a boy version of Su Li, maybe Su Li’s older brother or younger brother.
Maybe it was because Su Li had simply let her stay the night, that she ended up dreaming of Su Li.
She curled up inside the Backpack the Pooper-Scooper had prepared for her, quietly observing the world.
It seemed her point of view wasn’t much different from Su Li’s.
She watched the Pooper-Scooper busily working at all sorts of jobs, earning not very much money.
Only at lunchtime did the Pooper-Scooper finally seem relieved, feeding her Cat Food.
She could sense that, as the Pooper-Scooper fed her, he relaxed as though a weight had been lifted.
“Meow.”
Just hearing her meow, the Pooper-Scooper’s face would relax into a smile.
So, the Pooper-Scooper could smile too?
Miss Cat didn’t know, since she’d never really seen her Pooper-Scooper smile before.
She was just a little cat—there wasn’t much she could do.
Other than meow at her Pooper-Scooper a few times, and rub against him.
The next morning, Miss Cat woke up very early.
Even though the bed was comfortable, her biological clock woke her up on time.
Seeing that Su Li hadn’t gotten up yet, she went to the Kitchen and peeked into the Refrigerator.
Then, she started helping Su Li prepare breakfast.
Halfway through, Miss Cat suddenly felt troubled.
She hadn’t asked Su Li for permission to use things from the Refrigerator. Was that okay?
Looking at the half-finished meal, in the end, Miss Cat pushed through her guilt and continued to finish making breakfast.
She vaguely remembered that every morning, the Pooper-Scooper would fry two eggs, add a piece of bacon, then toast two slices of bread in the Oven, and finally sandwich the egg and bacon between the bread and eat it all together.
She didn’t know if Su Li would like to eat breakfast that way.
But she knew how to make it, and… if she paid Su Li back later, she could afford it.
Miss Cat still felt a little guilty. Su Li was so nice to her, and she’d used ingredients from the Refrigerator without asking.
If Su Li couldn’t forgive her, she’d just go downstairs and buy some groceries to restock the Refrigerator.
When Su Li woke up, she smelled something delicious. At that moment, several cats were gathered around their dishes, enjoying Cat Food.
Su Li noticed that the Cat Food was the same kind she had given to Miss Cat before.
Usually, Miss Cat wouldn’t eat it herself, but now she was feeding it all to the cats at Home.
Her gaze searched the room, and soon, she spotted Miss Cat busy in the Kitchen.
For some reason, seeing Miss Cat carrying a finished breakfast made Su Li feel warm inside.
Even when she’d lived with Chi Qingya, the one who got up early and made breakfast was always Su Li herself.
Even so, Chi Qingya would always find fault with something.
Complaining about this, complaining about that.
Now, seeing Miss Cat make breakfast for her, even though her expression didn’t change, Su Li still felt happy.
“Um… I’m sorry!”
Miss Cat stood in front of Su Li with the prepared breakfast in her hands, her head lowered like a child who’d made a mistake, and apologized with guilt.
“Thank you.”
“I shouldn’t have… shouldn’t have touched your things without your permission.”
Miss Cat said shyly. Even though Su Li had thanked her, she still hurried to apologize.
“It’s alright. Just treat this place as your Home.”
Su Li tried hard to put a smile on her face, though she felt a bit regretful.
Her smile wasn’t from the heart, or rather, it wasn’t a smile that came naturally.
Yet, Miss Cat stared blankly at Su Li’s smile.
She felt that Su Li’s smile was just like her Pooper-Scooper’s.
For a moment, she just stood there, still holding the plate.
Did Su Li just say to treat this place as her Home?
Home?
Miss Cat glanced around at her surroundings, unsure how to describe her feelings.
If she really lived together with Su Li, maybe she would feel very relaxed?
But then Miss Cat shook her head.
She wasn’t really like a cat.
She wouldn’t take up much space.
But if the two of them lived together, it definitely wouldn’t be as comfortable as living alone.
She couldn’t be a bother to Su Li!!
