- Chapter 4 - Licking Fur
Under the faint moonlight, the girl’s slender figure stood firm. The gang of local stray cats tucked their tails and fled in all directions. She gazed at “Little Darling,” who lay collapsed beside a cardboard box, its intestines torn and spilling out, and slowly walked over.
In those beautiful peach-blossom eyes, there was still no light, no warmth.
She took off her scarf, wrapped the dying kitten inside, held it in her arms, and went straight upstairs.
It was a partitioned rental room, and the space was not very large. A bed, a computer desk, and a dressing table it looked truly shabby. Fortunately, however, there was a private kitchen and bathroom, and it was kept very clean.
Susu placed the kitten wrapped in the scarf on the computer desk and fetched a basin of warm water mixed with salt from the kitchen.
The kitten was very well-behaved, lying motionless on the desk. Perhaps it wasn’t being “good”; it simply had no strength left.
Susu gave the wounds on its body a cold glance, pondered for a second, and then pulled a few cotton swabs from her makeup box. Dipping them in the saltwater, she began to wipe the wounds.
Little Darling fainted from the pain.
A few minutes later, she took those intestines hanging outside and stuffed them back into its belly with stark decisiveness.
The girl’s movements were so resolute that even the Cat Queen, watching the entire scene from a god-like perspective, couldn’t help but frown.
“This human actually has some skill!”
She glanced at the unconscious Little Darling and shook her head.
“It’s just that this cub… is far too weak. The face of my Tabby Tribe has been completely disgraced by it!”
Seeing the Cat Queen’s keen interest, the Elder Skycat beside her relaxed its internal programming and subconsciously chimed in.
“Indeed. Thanks to the little mistress’s decisiveness and wit, Your Majesty was able to survive that tribulation back then!”
Ye Qingqing, who had been watching the drama, suddenly stiffened. Her sharp gaze stared at the cartoon cat before her in disbelief.
“What did you say?”
The Elder Skycat realized it had misspoke. With a thud, it flattened itself against the ground, its triangular mouth opening and closing in an attempt to salvage the situation.
“Your Majesty, please appease your anger! The little mistress is certainly formidable, but she is still no match for you, Your Majesty. A lucky cat has its own divine protection!”
Ye Qingqing was now fully awake to the reality. She half-squatted, looking down at the Elder Skycat flattened on the floor, making a final struggle for denial.
“Are you saying that weak cat… is me?”
The Cat Queen’s aura was powerful. The Elder Skycat did not dare to hide the truth. Risking being swatted into the ground by a single paw from Ye Qingqing, its plastic body trembled.
“Yes, Your Majesty. To be precise, Little Darling is Your Majesty’s avatar in the human world, just as my current identity as the Tmall LOGO is the same thing!”
Ye Qingqing: “…”
One second she was looking on with disdain, saying the cub had disgraced the Tabby Tribe; the next second, she herself became that disgraceful, weak cat. She had likely never experienced anything more embarrassing in her entire life.
However, before the proud Cat Queen could even “dig a hole in the floor with her toes” from embarrassment, her thoughts were drawn away by a strong scent of mint.
The half-basin of warm water on the computer desk had been dyed red by clotted blood. This mint scent, however, emanated from an ultra-thin, refreshing sanitary pad held in the cat owner’s hand.
Having just arrived in the human world, Ye Qingqing could not identify what this object was for, but a cat’s curiosity caused her eyes to widen.
With practiced movements, the cat owner tore open the sanitary pad, pressed it against Little Darling’s wound, and wrapped a layer of tape around it. Only half of the kitten’s small head was left exposed fuzzy and extremely cute.
Finally, she couldn’t resist. She lightly stroked its head twice and murmured half a sentence of human language that the Cat Queen currently could not understand at all.
“So well-behaved, yet still abandoned.”
Her slender fingers lingered on the kitten’s head for a long time. Unconsciously, crystalline tears welled up in the girl’s eyes, sliding down her snow-white skin bit by bit and landing on Little Darling’s body.
Along with that trace of coolness, the kitten slowly opened its eyes. In its vision, those beautiful peach-blossom eyes were no longer icy cold, but filled with the clarity of tears and a gentle warmth forged through suffering.
Seeing the cat wake up, the owner quickly withdrew her hand, forcefully wiping away the trace of sympathy on her face.
Even in front of an animal, she would not reveal her vulnerability!
Little Darling was very spiritual, as if it could see through human thoughts with a single glance. At this moment, it tilted its head and let out a milky “meow” at the girl in its line of sight.
The girl ignored it, so the little fellow used all its strength to climb up, leaning against her body to rub itself against her, a purring “chant” vibrating in its throat.
Ye Qingqing was stunned for a moment, her gaze falling on the Elder Skycat flattened on the floor.
“What spell is this? It is so powerful!”
In the feline world, purring represented comfort and happiness. She truly could not fathom how a weak cub, who was on the brink of death a moment ago, could be rubbing its fur against a human and making such a pleasant purring sound the next.
“Reporting to Your Majesty, it is not a spell. It is just a common bandage!”
“A common bandage? That thing she wrapped around it just now is it some kind of miraculous elixir?”
“It… it isn’t a miraculous elixir either, Your Majesty!”
“Oh? Then what is it?”
Ye Qingqing’s look of pure curiosity made the well-traveled Elder Skycat feel quite awkward. However, the Queen’s aura was not to be ignored, so the old fellow had no choice but to respectfully explain to its new Queen.
“Reporting to Your Majesty, what the little mistress used just now is a sanitary pad!”
The Cat Queen’s glass-bead eyes slowly turned. She recalled the words the human had muttered and those crystal-clear teardrops, and her heart became even more curious. Once again, she cast an inquisitive look toward the Skycat teacher.
“Sanitary… Sutra? Which tribe’s cat priest chants this?”
“No, no, no, Your Majesty! This ‘pad’ is not that ‘sutra’! In the human world, a sanitary pad is a hygiene product used by women during their menstrual period!”
Cat Queen: A hygiene product used by women during their period? What on earth is that!
Oh, a cat’s curiosity! Even a warrior like the Queen still possessed a heart for exploring the new world.
The electronic Skycat extracted the relevant usage of sanitary pads from its storage space, analyzing it word by word in an electronic voice.
“As for this sanitary pad, the main materials are cotton, non-woven fabric, paper pulp, or high-molecular polymers formed from a composite of the above. When using it, first tear off the paper strip in the middle, stick the adhesive side to the center of the underwear, align the two ‘wings’ with the narrowest part of the crotch, and stick them firmly…”
The Skycat teacher told everything it knew without reservation. Beside it, the Cat Queen listened even more intently. She rehearsed the process of the cat owner bandaging Little Darling in her mind.
To better digest the information, Ye Qingqing even subconsciously lifted her hind leg and glanced at her own “private area.”
“Are you sure it won’t rub off my fur?”
Skycat Teacher: “…”
Following the Skycat teacher’s lecture, by the time Ye Qingqing returned to the scene, Little Darling was already a cat with a master. To be precise, she had been adopted by that tiny human!
Leaning back in her office chair, the girl wrapped her kitten in a scarf, placed it on her lap, and occasionally stroked its head.
Without realizing it, her shopping cart was already filled with various pet supplies. After layers of screening, she finally bought the best cat food, canned food, cat treats, various dried fish, a beautiful cat bed, a cat climbing frame, and milk-scented tofu cat litter…
Susu was not a “cat lover,” nor did she possess the common sympathy found in many pretty girls. But from the moment she decided to bring Darling through the door, she silently told herself that from now on, no matter how difficult things became, she would give this “little beast” a warm home and a princess-like life.
“Meow~”
Little Darling seemed to sense the owner’s care. It twisted its body in her arms and let out a flattering meow.
Susu quickly put down her phone. Her palm cautiously pressed against the area below its neck, warning it in a soft, thin, and slightly annoyed tone.
“Don’t move. Do you want the wound to hurt even more?”
Little Darling hugged her hand with both paws, its slightly barbed tongue licking along the lines of the back of her hand bit by bit, the happy and relaxed purring still echoing in its throat.
Licking fur is a ritual in the feline world. A weak group licking a strong one signifies submission; licking between relatives and friends signifies trust and reliance; it is also a way to express gratitude. And Little Darling, ultimately, licked the fur of this tiny human.
Yet, only a few hours ago, the Cat Queen had silently made a ruthless vow in her heart:
Sooner or later, I will make her kneel down and lick my fur!
Seeing its student lost in thought, the Skycat teacher chimed in with great eagerness.
“Look, Your Majesty, how harmonious you and the little mistress are!”
Cat Queen Ye Qingqing: “!!!”
