The Cat's Inheritance

Fuck you, this gold chain is too fucking ugly, it doesn't match the painting style of a beautiful boy at all, oh my god, it's ugly and crying——

Ling Ting had a storm in her heart, but she kept a gentle smile on her face, and asked, "Excuse me, can I swipe my card first?"

Only then did the boy realize that he was blocking the way, and quickly nodded and retreated to the side. In a panic, the coin in his hand rolled out.He froze for a moment, then subconsciously bent down to pick it up.It's a pity that his backpack was too heavy. As he leaned over, the backpack slid down his back and slammed on the floor of the bus with a bang.The boy was stunned for a moment, then struggled, trying to pull himself out.Backpack straps strangled his arms, making him look like a crab waving its claws.

This station is the starting point, and the nearby residential areas are all newly built in the past two years, so there are not many passengers.The driver will wait 10 minutes before driving as usual.At this time, the people in the car had nothing to do, just in time to see this scene.

The driver watched with unusual calmness as the boy tied his arm into a dead buckle and was trapped in the strap of his backpack.

Ling Ting shook her shoulders, tried her best to suppress her hilarious laughter, and stepped forward to help in a friendly manner.It's a pity that the backpack was too heavy, and she didn't pick it up all at once.Finally, the boy finally found the trick, freed himself from the backpack straps first, then stood up, and put the bag on his back again.Ling Ting took the opportunity to help him pick up the coin.Only two of the four coins were found, one was one piece and the other was fifty cents, and the rest seemed to disappear out of thin air.She couldn't find it, so she had to return the remaining two coins to the boy.

"Thank you." He politely thanked Ling Ting and blinked Chu.Then he lowered his head and looked at the two coins in his hand again, seeming a little annoyed.

Ling Ting was filled with guilt immediately, and said generously: "It's my fault too, let me swipe the card for you." After that, she used her bus card to help the boy swipe the fare.

The car set off soon.Ling Ting sat in a row with that boy.He took the backpack down and put it on his lap.The bag was huge, and the seat suddenly seemed cramped. He carefully gathered it into a ball, looking aggrieved.

Ling Ting thought it was funny, and deliberately teased him to talk.

Probably because Ling Ting helped him pay the money, the boy seemed quite generous and answered all questions.

"My name is Ali." He laughed as he said, then spread out his palms in embarrassment, pointed to two coins, and asked Ling Ting, "Can you tell me which one is worth?" One is bigger and the other is smaller, but The bigger one is one, the smaller one is five, one should be smaller than five.Ali frowned in confusion.

……

Ling Ting thought, is this the way to strike up a conversation in the new era?She thoughtfully helped Ah Li to distinguish the value of the two coins.

Ah Li muttered to herself silently, and then smiled happily at her.

It was only then that Ling Ting realized that the corners of the other party's mouth were upturned, with a beautiful cat lip, and two cute little canine teeth would be exposed when he smiled.

However, the name Ali really sounds like a girl.

Ling Ting secretly sighed, and introduced herself, "My name is Ling Ting, you can call me Ling."

"Ling, hello."

"Are you a University student?"

Ali thought for a moment, then nodded with a smile.

Ling Ting felt a little strange, but didn't care, and chatted with him casually. "I'm going to get off at Goodbye Road, where are you going?"

Ah Li thought for a while, took out her mobile phone from her pocket, poked it slowly, then nodded and said, "Well, I'm going to go on the road of goodbye."

"What a coincidence, where are you going?" Ling Ting asked casually, but she was actually just chatting, and didn't intend to hear any specific answers.Unexpectedly, the other party's answer was a bit strange.

"I'm going to find a very, very important human... person." Ali said, then smiled a little embarrassedly, and lowered her head.

Ling Ting's curiosity was suddenly provoked.She was originally designed as a character, and she can think wildly by herself, and she can open her brain to the sky.She asked a few more questions, but it was a pity that Ah Li refused to say any more and just laughed.Ling Ting thought to herself, she must be looking for her sweetheart.Oh, what a young and wonderful age.

"Where are you going?" Ah Li also asked Ling Ting, probably because she felt that coming and going was inappropriate.

"I'm going to work." Ling Ting only moved home from X city at the end of last year.Her original job was as a character original artist, doing game concept illustrations.Later, my health couldn't take it anymore, so I went back to my hometown Maochun, where the pressure of life was less, and bought a house in a newly developed suburban real estate. Relying on the contacts I had accumulated before, it was relatively easy to do online work by myself.Her parents worried that she had been out of society for too long, and strongly urged her to find another stable job.Ling Ting doesn't care, but going deep into life can bring her inspiration.She chose carefully and finally chose to work part-time in a restaurant.

The name of the restaurant is very interesting, it is called "a small restaurant that can make Sparta full".

The working environment is simple, the restaurant has just started, and it is not too busy.Colleagues are all young and interesting.The most important thing is that the boss is good-looking, a man in his 30s who is mature and understands life. He often sits at the door of the store for an entire afternoon. He can attract cats from half a street, and he doesn't worry about income or customer flow.I really can't help but have countless stories popping up in my head after looking at it more.

Ling Ting decided to stay in this small restaurant almost at the first sight. It doesn't matter how much the salary is, as long as the working environment is happy.She secretly took a photo of the boss and shared it with her close friends, but she didn't expect that she actually dug up an old story about the boss.

It is said that it is an old thing, but it has not been too long.It's just the very beginning of the story, going back several years.Back then, there was an internet-famous cat, the Chinese genus Cihuamao, which was particularly popular and had more than 1000 million fans.His owner is Sing, a well-known game streamer who has attracted many fans.Among them, there is a fan group that is the strongest, with more than 50 people. It has been established for ten years and has survived until today. It is renamed "Sing's Changqing Station".Ling Ting's gay friends are in this group.

And sing is her current boss, hardworking.

The name of the small restaurant, Sparta, is named after his raccoon cat.

Two years ago, Lihuamao passed away. Sing also completely quit the anchor circle and disappeared from everyone's sight. More than 1000 million fans said no, so they didn't want it.

When Ling Ting heard this slightly legendary story, she scratched her head and ears out of curiosity.It's a pity that she didn't know her current friends back then, and she wasn't interested in the cute pet circle, so she missed such a good story.Now she is thinking all day long about arresting the boss and torturing him to dig out all his thoughts-haha, of course that is impossible, seeing how the boss is changing the drinking water bucket with one hand, she can only think about it .

Ling Ting's new photos made Sing's old-age fan base explode in an instant.Some of those fans have become wives and mothers, but this does not hinder their passionate hearts.

A small restaurant that can fill Sparta, this is love!One day, they must form a group to brush.

Especially Ling Ting's friends, when they heard that the old Amway could be sold one day, they were so excited that they mailed Ling Ting a mobile hard drive on the same day, which was filled with pictures, videos and fanart.Ling Ting was okay with cats at first, and she didn't feel particularly fond of them.After seeing Sparta, she liked it so much that she changed the phone screen and drew cartoons for him. When she woke up one morning, she suddenly had the idea of ​​raising a raccoon cat.

It's a pity that this extremely smart and lovely raccoon cat is no longer there.

Thinking of this, Ling Ting quickly took out the phone photo album, and said to Ali: "The restaurant where I work is called Sparta, and I'll show you a super cute cat." She took out the raccoon cat in the photo album, and pointed Looking at the big head on the screen, he said, "Look, he is Sparta, look at his chubby face hahaha, a big pancake."

Ah Li was quite proud when she heard others praise him for being cute, but when she heard the other party say that he was chubby, she suddenly felt a little unhappy.Why are human beings so impolite, what's wrong with being chubby.He can't get fat no matter what he eats now, I don't know how sad he is.Ah Li took a deep breath, thinking in her heart, don't quarrel, don't quarrel.

Ling Ting didn't know about Ah Li's depressed heart, so she continued talking on her own, and talked about how good her boss was. "Such a man is simply gentle Su."

Ah Li pricked up her ears, she was fascinated by what she was hearing, and suddenly became confused. "What is gentle su? Is it delicious?" He knows that crisp is a kind of delicious food. Uncle Wang bought it for him. It's sweet, and he likes it very much.When it comes to the benefits of becoming a human, for Ali, being able to taste sweetness should rank second.The sweets are so delicious, it is a delicious taste that cat food and canned food can't match.The inability of cats to taste sweetness is definitely the biggest regret of a cat's life.

However, when did miwu become something to eat?

Ah Li stared at Ling Ting nervously, Miwu wouldn't be eaten!

Ling Ting laughed and said, "You are so funny. Gentle Su means that this person is gentle and Su. Su, you know?"

Ali nodded.I know, delicious.

"Yes, it means that this person looks Su because of his gentleness."

Ali became more confused.So the taste of miu is sweet?Hi, I couldn't taste the sweetness before, I really missed a lot.It turns out that Miwu is sweet, I really like it.

He laughed involuntarily, the corners of his mouth raised, his eyebrows and eyes curved.

After they all got off the bus on Zaihui Road, Ling Ting discovered that Ali and her were passing each other, and Ali followed her all the way to the Sparta Restaurant.Ling Ting asked in surprise: "So you want to come to our restaurant?"

Ali nodded.

Ling Ting laughed, "Then why didn't you say it earlier, I've been talking about it all the time, and I wanted to invite you to come to our restaurant for dinner in the future."

Ah Li didn't reply, she raised her head and looked at the signboard of the restaurant quietly.

A small restaurant that can satisfy Spartans.

What a strange name.

Ali laughed.

From the outside, the decoration of the restaurant belongs to the European town style.The gray brick walls are covered with green vines, and there are iron tables and chairs under the red canopy.Looking in from the window, you can clearly see the bright and clean dining table layout.There is a small blackboard at the entrance of the restaurant, on which is written in chalk: Today's special offer, Spartan set meal, passion fruit soda.

A small sign hung on the glass door: OPEN.There are several strings of small copper bells hanging under the notice board.

When Ali was about to reach out to push the door, she saw the bell and couldn't help fiddled with it a few times.The bell made a crisp sound.

At this moment, the door was suddenly opened from the inside, and a tall man came out.He walked a little fast, not paying attention to Ali who was leaning over to fiddle with the bell.The backpack was too heavy, Ali was pushed and her center of gravity was unstable, she fell backwards, and was grabbed by the man with sharp eyesight and quick hands.

"careful!"

In a trance, Ali only smelled that familiar breath.He didn't look up, he just threw himself into the opponent's arms, and then hugged him tightly.

In fact, a long time ago, Ali had imagined that if Miwu became small and as big as him, he could hold him in his arms, how wonderful it would be.

However, one day, he became as big as Miwu, and he became greedy again.It would be great if I was still a small one and could be stuffed into Miwu's arms.

Before he could catch his breath, Xin Qin was strangled by someone.The man hugged him so tightly that there was almost no place for him to push him away.He glanced at Ling Ting in surprise, and found that Ling Ting was as shocked as he was.

"You..." After Qin Qin could say a word, he was hugged even harder.He gestured for Ling Ting to help him with his eyes.

Ling Ting's rationality was shouting: Oh shit, what's going on, why did she hug her as soon as she met?No, I have to help my boss.Thinking about it, she took out her phone.

What's the situation, why did I take out my phone!I uncontrollably switched to photo mode!Not only did I shoot it, I picked a fucking filter!

Ling Ting took several pictures in a row without changing his expression.

Hard work had to save itself.He gestured with both hands in the air, finally found a more convenient point of strength, grabbed his clothes, and then forcefully tore the boy off him slowly.

Ah Li sniffed, staring at his humans intently.Miwu hasn't changed at all, it still looks good.It's just that he thought he had grown very tall after becoming a human, but he didn't expect that he was still a little shorter than Miwu.

Xin Qin glanced at the boy, and for some reason, swallowed the words he was about to say.

It was a cat-like boy, probably a college student.

But what about this thick gold chain?Do students nowadays like to wear big gold chains?What style?

Before recovering from her hard work, Ali reached out again, grabbed his wrist, and held it firmly in her hand.

Qin Qin was a little embarrassed, he had never been so intimate with someone before, and the other party was still a man.He secretly moved his wrist, trying to break free, when he heard the boy whisper, "I'm hungry."

Looking at him quietly, Qin Qin gradually loosened his strength.After an unknown amount of time, he coughed and said, "Relax, come in." With his free hand, he pushed open the glass door behind him to make way for the space.

Ah Li reluctantly let go of her hand, lowered her head, and silently followed Xin Qin into the restaurant.There is a sweet smell in the air.Ah Li sniffed gently, swallowing her saliva unconsciously.

Xin Qin silently handed him a stack of tissues.

Ah Li glanced at him curiously, then reached out to wipe her face, only to realize that she had burst into tears at some point.He raised his head, took the tissue with some embarrassment, wiped away his tears, and then blew his nose vigorously.

The loud sound of blowing their noses echoed in the restaurant, and the only three or two customers looked at each other in blank dismay.

Ah Li didn't care about the eyes around her, she just wiped her face clean, thinking that she couldn't throw trash anywhere, so she rolled up the tissue and held it in her hand.

Qin Qin handed him the wastebasket and asked him where he wanted to sit.

Ah Li gets rid of the garbage.Seeing Miwu already made him feel a lot better.He rolled his eyeballs to quickly look around and said, "I want to bask in the sun."

Work hard to lead Ali to the table near the window.From here, through the windows, you can see the sparkling lake.The sun shines on the body through the emerald green branches. Although it is already noon, it does not feel hot at all, and it is very comfortable.

Toil back to the bar, wash your hands, dry them off, and put on your apron.He was already planning to go out, but at this moment he motioned for Ling Ting to hand him the menu.

"Boss, let me come, don't you have something to do?" Ling Ting was actually a little guilty, after all, she promised to replace the boss.It didn't help, and it seemed to bring a strange trouble.Although she finds it quite amusing.

"It's okay, I'll leave after ordering." Xin Qin took the menu and water bottle and walked towards the new customer's table.

Ah Li stared at the water glass on the table.Transparent, knock it, jingle.He secretly raised his head, glanced around, and found that no one was looking at him, he poked the body of the glass quietly with his finger, and pushed the water glass to the edge of the table.

Push again.

Push again——

The water glass was intercepted.

Ah Li looked up, only to see Xin Qin looking at him expressionlessly.He felt a little guilty, lowered his head, and looked at his fingers.

Fortunately, Qin Gong didn't say anything, and placed the water glass upright in the center of the table, far away from the edge, and then poured lemonade into the glass.

Ali picked up the cup curiously, sniffed it under her nose, then wrinkled her nose and said, "I don't want this."

"Don't drink lemonade?"

"Ah."

He worked hard to take away the water glass, and after a while, changed to a glass of clean water.

Ah Li picked it up and took a sip, smacked her lips, and asked, "Can I add some sweetness?"

Qin Qin glanced at him, spread out the menu, and said, "You can change the drink. Do you want to order?"

The menu is text-based with only a few small pictures.Ah Li couldn't see what was on the picture clearly, so he had to look hard at the few characters he only knew.This can't be blamed on him, the human language he studied before has never been tested on writing. "Chicken, chicken..." He clicked on a line of small characters, read it over and over again, and said with difficulty, "Chicken, chicken, chicken..."

The customers at the next table couldn't help looking here secretly.

Qin Qin cleared his throat, took over the conversation, and said, "Chicken breast."

"Ah, I want this!" Ah Li stretched her brows and smiled, showing her pointed canine teeth, "Chicken breast is delicious."

Qin Qin asked a few more about his preferences and taboos, and then handed him the drink list.This time Ali learned her lesson and asked Xinqin directly for any recommended drinks.

"Passion Fruit Special Blend Soda is our new product."

Ali doesn't know what passion fruit is, but the recommendation means that Miwu likes it very much. "Then I want this!"

He worked hard to write the list and was about to take away the menu when Ali called him to stop.Hard work stopped and looked at Ali.Ah Li suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "You, don't go, let's, let's chat for a while." He stammered.

Whether it is the waiter or the boss, there is no obligation to chat with customers.Xin Qin really wanted to tell this person in front of him.But I don't know why, looking into his eyes, I can't say any words of rejection.He had to give the list to another waiter.Then he stood aside and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Ah Li couldn't hold back her smile, but she still tried her best to put on a serious chat."What's your name?" he asked.

"Hard work."

"Hey, I know."

……

He looked at him diligently and didn't speak.

A Li quickly added, "My name is Li Yixin, you can call me A Li." As he spoke, he hurriedly opened his backpack and began to dig things out.His backpack was full, and after half a minute of fiddling, he found a pencil case, and then took out an ID card from it.

"Here, my name." Ali stretched out her hand and handed her ID card to Xin Qin.

Xin Qin still looked at him, did not reach out to take it, and asked, "Why did you show me your ID card?"

"Tell you my name."

"Didn't you just tell me?"

Ah Li pondered, "Although I said it verbally, how can you know that I am a human being without looking at my ID card?"

Uh huh... sounds like a good idea?
