Looking at the written words of the kitten, Xiao Shiyu hesitated and asked, "Who is King George? Are you a supercat?"
The orange cat did not reply her question and stared at her blankly.
Xiao Shiyu pondered for a while and waved her hands, saying, "It's alright, come in first."
After letting in the orange cat, Xiao Shiyu brought the piece of paper to Zhao Yao and said, "Boss, a supercat came to us. Will you take a look?"
Zhao Yao was looking at sports cars on the internet and said while browsing, "What's the deal with the cat? He has to pay just like other customers. If the cat is a tomcat, do not allow our female cats to provide service."
Xiao Shiyu frowned and said, "No, he said he is here to find a cat and mentioned that he is King George's son."
"What?" Zhao Yao lifted his head and said, "What did you say?" He turned his head and saw the orange cat. He said in surprise, "Looks… almost alike."
…
In the Extradimensional Belly, Matcha was in front of a pail of water and scrubbing the bed sheet with a scrubbing board.
Although it was hard work, Matcha was excited, enthusiastic, optimistic and thinking of making progress.
"Humph, I did not expect the Death Exemption Ticket to be so useful." Matcha recalled last night's flashing of the sword and the ensuing bloodshed and trembled uncontrollably.
"Last night, I tricked Mango to excrete on bed and caused an upheaval. Zhao Yao was furious and ordered Airplane, Roly Poly, the royal cat guards and the Royal Cat Police Force to search for evidence and investigate until the truth was found."
"Heh heh." Matcha smiled as he was very pleased with himself. "Finally, I am being exposed."
"I relied on my Death Exemption Ticket to escape punishment. I am only required to clean the bedsheets ten times. The Death Exemption Ticket is really good stuff."
Matcha was highly excited. "With the Death Exemption Ticket, I will not fear being captured by Zhao Yao. This item is priceless. This is the future. Whoever owns the Death Exemption Ticket is king."
Moreover, I am in charge of renovating the large building. I will gain the privilege of giving out the Death Exemption Tickets."
Matcha smiled as he scrubbed the bedsheets.
Old Cat walked unknowingly to Matcha and took out his cell phone, typing out, "Congratulations George! Congratulations George!"
Matcha raised his brows and suppressed his smile. "What is Old Cat celebrating?"
Old Cat smiled as he typed, "The Death Exemption Ticket is a rare treasure and George is holding the key to the Death Exemption Tickets. Isn't this worth celebrating?"
"Hahahaha, Old Cat, you are the only one who understands me."
"George, let me help you scrub the bedsheets."
"No, no, it is not nice if Zhao Yao or the other cats see you scrubbing the bedsheet. This is a small setback as I will become stronger." Matcha sent Old Cat away and continued to scrub the bedsheets while he indulged in his future fantasies.
The voice of Zhao Yao startled Matcha. "Matcha."
"Huh? Is Zhao Yao looking for me?" He turned his head and saw Zhao Yao carrying an orange cat, walking towards him. He was shocked. "A kitten? Looks like me? This is disgusting. What kind of a cat did Zhao Yao bring home this time?"
While Matcha was letting his imagination run wild, he heard Zhao Yao say, "Matcha, this kitten says that he is your son, is that true?"
"Ah?" Matcha was dumbstruck as he looked at the small kitten in Zhao Yao's arms and fell into a daze.
"My… son?"
The small kitten looked at Matcha and asked warily, "Are you George Matcha?"
Matcha raised his white-gloved paws and covered his face, his mind racing in a frenzy. "I have a son? How can it be? Why can't I recall anything about having a son?"
Retrieving his paws, Matcha shook his head continuously and said, "It is not possible. Where did I get a son? Little kitten, are you trying to stay here by fooling us?"
"No… it is not like this." The little kitten meowed in protest. "My mum went on a long trip. She said you didn't take any responsibility and asked me to look for you."
Matcha said, "… impossible, who is your mum? I can't recall anything. How can I have a son?"
Zhao Yao gazed at Matcha as though he were a scumbag and said, "I am handing this kitten over to you. Bring him out to play."
"No, Zhao Yao, I don't even have a girlfriend, where did I get a son?" Matcha broke down and shouted at the kitten, "Hey, look carefully. We are of different species. You are an ordinary orange cat while I am a Jianghai Scottish Fold!"
The little kitten nodded and said, "My mum said I am a Jianghai Scottish Fold, just like my dad."
"D*mn, who said we are alike? We look totally different!" Matcha looked at the kitten's four paws. They were all white like his. He scrutinized the kitten's chest and it had white fur as well. Finally, he examined the kitten's nose and there was a white vertical cluster like his.
"This is disgusting. I don't care. From what I see, we are different." Matcha said in disbelief, "You are definitely not my son."
Zhao Yao looked contemptuously at Matcha and noticed something on the mission panel.
Mission: Father-Son Blood Ties
Mission Objective: Let Matcha bring the small kitten out to play for seven days and take responsibility for his actions.
Reward: 500 experience points.
Mission Penalty: None
Zhao Yao placed the small kitten in front of Matcha, "Matcha, take responsibility for your actions. Take good care of him."
Matcha looked sorrowfully at Zhao Yao and said, "Zhao Yao! Zhao Yao! You don't believe me? I didn't sow any wild oats. He is definitely not my son!"
Zhao Yao cuddled Matcha and said, "Well, you have grown up. I am unable to control you. Remember to take precautions in the future." He left with a disappointed expression.
"Take good care of him. If there are no problems after a week, I will reward you with a Death Exemption Ticket."
Matcha stared at the receding figure of Zhao Yao and broke down on the ground. After hearing the Death Exemption Ticket reward, he immediately became excited.
The small kitten walked up timidly and looked at Matcha but was frightened by Matcha's glare and retreated a few meters.
"Stand right there!" Matcha bared his teeth and patted the kitten's head. "Little cat, who sent you to frame me?"
"No… no one." The small kitten showed his grievance and replied, "Mum wanted me to look for you, daddy."
"Do not call me daddy." Matcha frowned and said, "Get as far away from me as possible and don't let me see you again." Matcha brandished his claws and intimidated the small kitten until he curled into a ball and shied away.
After recalling Zhao Yao's order and the Death Exemption Ticket reward, Matcha kept his wits and said, "Forget it. You better follow me."
"Daddy." The small kitten leaped forward in joy and circled around Matcha and rubbed against him.
"Don't rub against me." Matcha held down the kitten's head. "Don't call me daddy."
The small kitten asked curiously, "What shall I call you?"
"Hmm…" Matcha thought for a while and said, "Call me Brother Matcha."
