Kang Xing Luo paused lightly, then smiled, and suddenly realized: “Jealous?”

It was a very common question, but it was very surprising coming from Kang Xing Luo’s mouth. This person was naturally oblivious. At this point, being able to say the word ‘jealous’ was like him being ‘enlightened’ in a certain sense.

Kang Lai Yin stared at Kang Xing Luo suspiciously, an idea inexplicably appearing in his heart.

…Do humans also continue to evolve?

Probably!

What Kang Xing Luo thought was simple. He used to like cats, and naturally he looked at them purely as cats. Now that cats had evolved, they were almost no different from humans in many aspects. The way of looking at cats’ feelings now inevitably had to be more delicate.

Everyone had a small temper, and a cat that had become a human must also have a small temper of its own. Kang Xing Luo found that whenever he paid more attention to other things, Xiao Shizi’s brows deepened little by little.

When Xiao Shizi was a cat, he always stared at him like this when he was doing other things. He couldn’t understand it at the time, but now he could understand it.

——Xiao Shizi…he really likes me so much!

Kang Xing Luo’s heart was warmed by this sudden happy realization. He continued to touch Xiao Shizi’s face and said softly, “Although cats all over the world are very cute, my favorite is only Xiao Shizi…”

Suddenly being confessed to like this, the cat’s eyes shrank suddenly, and his pupils trembled.

The surprise came so suddenly!

This, this!

Kang Lai Yin’s throat was dry, and he wanted to hug Kang Xing Luo in the next second. But then Kang Xing Luo looked at him affectionately and said the second half of the sentence. “Along with Da Hei and Prince, that is you six, I only love you.”

Kang Lai Yin: “…”

Kang Lai Yin: “…”

Kang Lai Yin: “…”

… He knew it!

Kang Lai Yin killed the kitten who had just been rejoicing in his heart, silently showing a grumpy cat face. In order to express his heartache, he hit Kang Xing Luo’s head with his forehead.

Kang Xing Luo silently covered his head, groaned in pain, and said helplessly: “Really, I only like the six of you. In fact, looking at all the cats in the room today, I only had one thought in my heart, if you could…”

As he spoke, Kang Xing Luo’s voice froze, and his expression suddenly darkened.

Kang Lai Yin couldn’t see that Kang Xing Luo liked the other cats, but he could see that Kang Xing Luo was uncomfortable. So, he raised Kang Xing Luo’s lowered head and said, “Why don’t you say it.”

Kang Xing Luo shook his head, unable to open his mouth.

Kang Lai Yin said: “Say it.”

Kang Lai Yin in human form was irresistible. After Kang Xing Luo hesitated, he finally said slowly: “If only you were by my side.”

Kang Lai Yin did not speak. Then suddenly his expression changed, Kang Xing Luo looked at his expression, and felt more and more that his feelings were correct, so he said unconsciously: “…I’m sorry.”

Kang Lai Yin was at a loss, “What are you apologizing for?”

Kang Xing Luo shook his head, only his expression became more and more sad, and with this, how could Kang Lai Yin still not notice, “What are you thinking about?”

Kang Xing Luo’s thoughts had been in his heart for a long time, and he planned to keep silent this time as well, but he was stunned. When Xiao Shizi asked him, his defense line collapsed.

Kang Xing Luo said, “Actually, you know the news about Da Hei and the other cats, right?”

Kang Lai Yin froze like a deer in the headlights.    

The distance between the two of them was so close that Kang Xing Luo could notice the change at once. Knowing that he was right, he felt even more deeply, and continued: “They are all alive and well, right?”

Gritting his teeth, he said, “Yeah.”

In fact, it was not difficult to know this matter at all. Li Hongming was right. According to the current status of Xiao Shizi, it was not difficult at all for him to know the news of other cats. If the other cats were really in trouble, Xiao Shizi would not ignore it. From the attitude of Xiao Shizi, Kang Xing Luo knew that the other cats must be fine.

So, he never said anything, and if it wasn’t for this time, he would have continued to keep silent.

Kang Lai Yin didn’t know Kang Xing Luo’s specific thoughts, so he wondered: “Since you knew already, why don’t you ask me where they are, don’t you… miss them very much?”

How could Kang Xing Luo not want to, but he smiled a smile full of helplessness. “I miss them very much, but if they don’t want to see me, I really can’t trouble them.”

Kang Lai Yin was stunned for a while, and his expression was shocked, but he couldn’t react for a while.    

Kang Xing Luo said slowly: “I asked you and Prince about this once before, and you both dealt with it like that… so I went back and thought about it carefully. The reason why you did this should be that I would be sad if you told me the truth.”

Kang Lai Yin: “…”

It was no wonder Kang Xing Luo’s thoughts had such a deviation. In his heart, the six cats in the family were loving, and there would never be the possibility of them calculating or hindering each other.

Coincidentally, there was a previous case of Li Hongming and Bai Lai’s pet disagreement, so Kang Xing Luo naturally felt that the other cats didn’t want to see him, and was secretly sad and didn’t ask Kang Xing Luo anymore.

Kang Lai Yin was completely speechless.

He never knew that Xing Luo thought so much in his heart.

Having spent this month and half with this thought in mind, how uncomfortable Xing Luo, who loved all the cats at home, must have been.

A huge feeling of guilt flooded into his heart. During this period of time, Kang Lai Yin, who had been hiding him from Da Hei and the others, was agitated.

He looked deeply into Kang Xing Luo’s eyes and felt distressed. He couldn’t hide it any longer, so he decided to admit: “Xing Luo, you misunderstood, in fact, I…”

Just as he was about to say the words, the bell at the door attached to greet customers of the store, rang. It was already dark, and at this time, there were actually guests coming to the door.

Kang Xing Luo quickly returned to his senses from a state of loss. Seeing that there was nowhere to hide, he could only hurriedly hold Kang Lai Yin’s shoulder and let Kang Lai Yin squat under the counter.

Kang Lai Yin squatted at Kang Xing Luo’s feet and looked up, just being able to see Kang Xing Luo’s legs and waist.

For a moment, Kang Lai Yin was a little dazed, then he unexpectedly discovered that this angle made him miss him especially.

He used to look at Kang Xing Luo like this often. At that time, he always thought in his heart, if Kang Xing Luo looked down at him, it would be good, if Kang Xing Luo looked at him, then he thought, this was not enough, if only Kang Xing Luo kept looking at him.

To this day, the idea had not changed.

But he made Xing Luo sad.

Kang Lai Yin’s mouth twitched, and his face collapsed in Kang Xing Luo’s shadow, looking extremely aggrieved.

He stretched out his long arms to wrap his arms around Kang Xing Luo’s legs from an angle that could not be seen from the outside, and then buried his head in Kang Xing Luo’s… crotch.

Kang Xing Luo: “…”

Kang Xing Luo was caught off guard, and at the same time, the guest wearing a hat and glasses carefully carrying a pet bag walked up to him.

Kang Xing Luo tried hard not to pay attention to Kang Lai Yin below, and smiled: “Welcome… Hey, is that you?”

The person Kang Xing Luo greeted was not someone else, it was the gaming girl who had met Li Hongming and him not long ago, so Kang Xing Luo was immediately pleasantly surprised, and not even caring about Xiao Shizi buried in his crotch, he said happily, “You’re here.”

Huang Qianqian took a breath, she was not surprised by Kang Xing Luo’s attitude towards her, so she sighed deeply and said: “You have finally opened a store. I have been waiting for you for a long time. I dare not come during the day, so I could only bring Gentleman here at night, eh? Wait a minute, why is your fresh-keeping cabinet empty? Ah.??? The cat rice balls won’t be sold out! What about Gentleman?”

The cat rice balls in the fresh-keeping cabinet were indeed sold out, but Kang Xing Luo took out a pot of fragrant cat rice balls from the kitchen like a magic trick. “I guessed you might come, so I kept it for you.”

Huang Qianqian was immediately happy. “Thank you!”

Kang Xing Luo said: “I should thank you, thank you for the promotion on Weibo.”

Huang Qianqian waved her hand, “I didn’t want to advertise for you, the business is good because the cat food you make is really good. It’s delicious.”

Although the girl said that, Kang Xing Luo obviously had a lot of love he wanted to share with others, so instead of arguing with words, he thanked them with actions.

“Don’t be polite with me, take these rice balls back and give them to Gentleman to eat. Come over at any time in the future. If you think it’s inconvenient, you can tell me alone. I’ll make it in advance, and you can pick it up when no one is there.”

Huang Qianqian was not polite. She responded immediately and added Kang Xing Luo on WeChat. “My name is Huang Qianqian, a cat slave and a gamer. We will play games together when I have time… ah, don’t get me wrong, I’m really not interested in men.”

Kang Xing Luo chuckled and stretched out his hand. “Kang Xing Luo.”

The two of them met each other and became friends.

“How is your Gentleman?”

Huang Qianqian said, “He’s fine, do you want to see him?”

Gentleman was in the pet bag, and Huang Qianqian didn’t mind showing her cat, so she put the pet bag on the counter, opened the zipper, and a cat with blue eyes and black and white coat quickly stuck its head out.

Sure enough, it was the beautiful cat he had seen on Weibo. The real cat was as cute as the photo. Kang Xing Luo was thinking about going up to touch it. But then he started meowing.

Gentleman’s actions were very rough, which was in great contrast to his cute appearance, Kang Xing Luo was very surprised, while Huang Qianqian was embarrassed so she covered her face and said: “It’s just like this, there’s no way, black and white cats are the huskies among cats, it’s good if they do not tear down the house, I really can’t help it.”

Although the Da Hei in his family had been very well behaved, Kang Xing Luo had heard of this statement a long time ago, so he understood it and asked casually, “Why did he suddenly get cat plague?”

Huang Qianqian said: “I had gotten Gentleman sterilized, however the resistance to disease after surgery will drop, so he accidentally got it.”

The word sterilization seemed to be appearing very frequently today, Kang Xing Luo looked at Gentleman who was hungrily eating the cat rice ball, and suddenly had mixed feelings in his heart, but he was not sure: “You can sterilize him. Well, in this era, if he evolves later…”

Huang Qianqian said not at all worried: “Then wait for him to evolve, but I guess that Gentleman should not evolve.”

As she said this, Gentleman who was rolling around, suddenly tumbled and the whole cat fell off the counter.

Kang Xing Luo: “…”

It seemed reasonable.

After saying a few words, Huang Qianqian wore the hat and glasses back, said goodbye to Kang Xing Luo, and then she carried Gentleman and the cat rice balls into the night.

Kang Xing Luo watched her go out, and then he hurriedly put his hands on Kang Lai Yin’s head to separate him from somewhere. “Xiao Shizi, don’t make trouble.”

Where was Kang Lai Yin making trouble? He had just figured things out now, and he had something to say. “Xing Luo, I have something to tell you.”

Kang Xing Luo showed him a reassuring smile, “Huh? You say.”
