Chapter 35: 035. Normal Person~
“Little Hei~ When you grow up, I’ll take you to get neutered, okay?”
Early in the morning, Ning Chu squatted in the corner of the dormitory, hands on knees, whispering like a devil.
“With that, even if you really turn into a cat girl, you’ll be a spayed cat girl that won’t have any feelings, right?”
The little cat yawned, raised its head without any lady-like elegance, rolled over, and lay by his feet.
“Is it more spirited now?”
“Yeah, seems a lot more lively.”
Wen Yang sat by the bed, gazing from afar at the petite figure squatting in the corner, “Have you thought of a name for it?”
“Uh… anything’s fine? How about Little Hei?”
“How about Chocolate?”
Ning Chu suddenly turned around, looking up at Wen Yang’s top bunk.
“What’s wrong?” Wen Yang scratched his head, “I think it’s a pretty good name. Chocolate is dark, and it’s dark too.”
That confirms it; this little cat is indeed the cat girl in the plot who owes a debt of gratitude to Wen Yang.
That cat girl is also named Chocolate…
Indeed, it’s inviting the wolf into the house!
If it weren’t for his interference, maybe Wen Yang would’ve brought the little kitten back to the dorm yesterday afternoon.
“Sounds bad, let’s call it… ” Ning Chu got inspired, diving into food for naming, “Let’s call it Hei Dou!”
“A bit ugly.” Wen Yang didn’t insist, rolled off his bed, “It’s your cat, you decide.”
“Yeah.”
Fortunately, it’s still a little kitten for now, which doesn’t pose any threat to Wen Yang’s virgin self. If Ning Chu guessed right, this cat is only about a month old, so it’s nearly a year away from maturity.
In this year, the plot about the cat girl repaying kindness won’t happen. Why, you ask… because minors are not allowed to cough cough!
No worries!
Ning Chu lightly patted Hei Dou’s little head, stretched, stood up straight, and looked out the window.
The heavy rain stopped last night, and outside was another infuriating sunny day.
Time for military training again…
Without cat food, Ning Chu could only leave a bowl of goat’s milk and a crushed sausage for Hei Dou. After breakfast in the dorm, he followed a few roommates out.
The post-rain sunshine was like a giant steamer. As he arrived at the humid playground, Ning Chu was already sweating lightly on his forehead.
High humidity combined with high temperature made the air feel like it had temperature when inhaled into the lungs.
“Left turn! Right turn! At ease!”
As usual, during military training, the instructor added extra mischief today; now and then, someone would make a mistake, causing waves of laughter among the students, bringing a little fun to the dull training.
Rarely, Han Jingye also showed up at the training site today.
He found a nearby spot to sit and was gazing at the training students.
Definitely hunting for prey again!
Ning Chu scoffed at Han Jingye, but the image of this counselor had already shaken in his mind.
No matter how you look at him, he doesn’t seem like a bad guy… rather like a dedicated counselor.
Maybe the instructor also sensed today’s hot and humid weather, and not long after, he announced a break. Ning Chu hurriedly ran to the shade of a tree, not caring about the slightly damp ground, and plopped down.
Crossing his legs, he pulled out his phone, preparing to buy some cat food for Hei Dou online.
“What brand of cat food is good?”
The prices here are similar to his past life, with cat food ranging from dozens to hundreds. He didn’t plan to buy anything too fancy, as long as Hei Dou got nutrition and didn’t get sick.
But even so, the various brands recommended online made his head spin.
From ones with worms, moldy ones, to those that made cats drop dead after eating…
After struggling, he picked a cat food that cost two hundred bucks for ten pounds, but when he clicked on payment, he got an insufficient balance notice and suddenly realized he was completely broke.
Last weekend, he spent a lot of money at the amusement park with Wen Yang, and during this time, he got convinced by Zhang Shaoqing to buy bubble tea and late-night snacks. With almost a week left until the end of the month, he barely had a little over a hundred bucks left.
“Oh no…”
A little over a hundred bucks might last him, but what would the cat eat? He couldn’t let it drink goat’s milk and eat sausage every day, could he?
Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered that his parents would soon send him living expenses.
What would parents look like in this world…
Even though his family left early in his past life, suddenly having parents here made Ning Chu feel a bit resistant.
Wen Yang was sitting right next to him, and hearing his muttering, he turned his head curiously.
Ning Chu’s hair tips had already soaked with sweat and were stuck to his forehead and temples. It didn’t make him look messy; instead, it gave Wen Yang a sense of delicate beauty.
At the same time, he once again caught a whiff of that indescribable fragrance.
Every time Ning Chu sweated, the scent became particularly apparent.
Noticing the gaze beside him, Ning Chu looked up in confusion. Wen Yang quickly shifted his gaze to Ning Chu’s phone screen: “Buying cat food for Hei Dou?”
“Yeah, but I don’t have enough money…”
“Just buy some trial packs; after all, the little cat can’t eat much.”
“Good point!”
Ning Chu’s eyes lit up, quickly searching for trial cat food on the shopping platform. But his peripheral vision kept landing on the pink thermos in Wen Yang’s hand.
Seemingly casually, he asked, “Which girl gave you that? It looks nice~”
“I don’t like drinking sour plum soup either, just that one from yesterday morning.” Wen Yang sighed helplessly, “That girl looked so pitiful; it felt like if I didn’t drink it, she’d cry in front of me.”
“That girl…” Ning Chu smirked.
It seemed that only characters in the plot would chase Wen Yang relentlessly, while non-plot characters acted more normally. Even if they expressed their feelings for Wen Yang, at least they didn’t directly ask for his DNA.
Finally encountered a normal person!
Likes him but is too shy to say it, only able to silently send him a bottle of sour plum soup, watching her crush from a distance—this shy, innocent love in a story filled with too many elements was too touching.
“What’s wrong? Not happy?” Wen Yang teased with a smile, “Don’t you have someone who likes you too? The coffee shop owner is a rich lady; I’m jealous of you.”
“This little frame of mine probably isn’t enough for a rich lady to toy with.”
“You’re overthinking it.” Wen Yang looked back at Ning Chu’s phone screen, reminding him, “Buy that cat food can you just scrolled past?”
Ning Chu shook his head, “Too expensive; it’s twenty bucks!”
“I’ll pay for it. Consider it a welcome gift for Hei Dou.”
He looked at Wen Yang suspiciously: “You don’t even have enough money for meals; where’d you get the money for Hei Dou’s can?”
“Got a part-time job?”
“Or did a girl give you money to spend?”
Wen Yang felt a sudden overwhelming pressure radiating from Ning Chu, and instinctively leaned back a bit, “No.”
“No?”
“I just did some gaming for a client at night, and I made over twenty bucks last night.”
Ning Chu suddenly smiled brightly: “I was just curious, that’s all.”
