When Lu Xiaocha returned home, only the butler was at home.
“Miss Xiaocha, you’re finally back.” The young butler smiled when he saw Lu Xiaocha.
“Mr. Lu and Madam have gone to discuss a project. They might not be back until tonight. The other young masters have also gone out. Do you need me to inform them?”
Lu Xiaocha shook her head. “No need. I’ll wait for them to come back.”
The butler looked at the black cat on her shoulder and was a little surprised at its unusually long tail.
“Young lady, did you buy a pet? Do you need me to get someone to buy some cat toys?”
“No, it can choose for itself.”
The butler: “???”
He thought that Lu Xiaocha was joking, but soon, he realized that Miss’s words were true.
The first thing the Nightmare Cat did when it got home was to take her phone and look for all the supplies it would need in the future.
Every time it saw something it liked, it would be so excited that it would meow. It would even pat her hand and ask her to help look.
Afraid that the Nightmare Cat would say something out of excitement, Lu Xiaocha brought it to her bedroom and instructed the butler not to let anyone go up casually.
“Help me take a look at these cat nests. Help me choose.”
Lu Xiaocha said, “Are you sure you want me to choose for you? Then choose this.”
The Nightmare Cat looked at the grayish-black cat nest she was pointing at.
The Nightmare Cat immediately looked disgusted. “Why is your aesthetic sense so bad at such a young age? It’s so dark and not nice at all.”
Lu Xiaocha rolled her eyes. “This kind doesn’t get dirty easily, okay? And you have the cheek to despise this color? You’re as dark as a dust ball.”
The Nightmare Cat was unhappy when it heard her slander its color.
“How can this be the same? This is a noble black color. It’s pure black without any impurities. Look at my soft fur. You’re really nothing except for your face.”
Lu Xiaocha was speechless.
This stinky cat really needed to be taught a lesson.
Lu Xiaocha felt her fist itch.
The Nightmare Cat shook its whiskers and snorted proudly. “I’ll choose myself. My taste is much better than yours.”
Lu Xiaocha said, “Then why did you ask me just now!”
Wasting her time.
Lu Xiaocha continued to watch television with fruits.
The girl and cat lay comfortably on the bed.
Until there was a knock on her bedroom door.
Lu Xiaocha opened the bedroom door and saw Lu Beichen outside.
“Why didn’t you tell me you were back?”
Lu Beichen passed the milk in his hand.
Lu Xiaocha immediately held it and drank it happily.
“Thank you, Brother. There’s nothing much to say. You can still see me when you come back.”
She turned sideways to let Lu Beichen in and asked, “Brother, I haven’t been to school for so many days. Will the teacher have any objections?”
Sigh… She felt a little embarrassed. She said that she was going to school, but her results were really bad. She had dragged down the average score of the class and even skipped classes for so many days.
Lu Beichen rubbed her head. “It’s fine. I helped you apply for leave for the teacher, but…”
Lu Xiaocha looked at him in confusion.
Lu Beichen said, “I kept your homework for the past few days.”
Lu Xiaocha was speechless.
Lu Xiaocha: “!!!”
“There’s homework? I don’t know how to do it to begin with. I haven’t gone to class yet. Is it really okay to leave homework for me?!”
She started to slack off. She finished the milk and lay down on the bed. She placed her hands on her stomach and closed her eyes peacefully. She answered firmly.
“No!”
Lu Beichen was amused by his sister’s series of actions.
“I’ve helped you with most of it, but you can’t give up on your studies.”
The girl who was slacking off and lying flat just now instantly straightened up again.
“I know you’re the best.”
The cat looked at Lu Xiaocha in disdain. Its gaze seemed to be saying, “I didn’t expect you to be like this, Lu Xiaocha!”
“Did you buy this pet?”
Lu Beichen also noticed that black cat. The easiest thing to remember about it was its tail. It was really… very long.
“Has it mutated? Why is its tail so long?”
The Nightmare Cat wagged its tail and cursed, “You’re the one who’s mutated. Isn’t my tail beautiful? Why do all of you have no aesthetic sense other than good looks!”
Lu Xiaocha was speechless.
‘Should we thank you for your compliment?’
Lu Beichen was stunned when he heard the black cat suddenly speak.
“It… it can speak!”
The Nightmare Cat shook its whiskers and said proudly, “Is it that strange? You’ve never seen a talking cat before?”
Maybe this cat had stayed in the forest for a long time and had no one to talk to, but after coming to the human world, it was especially talkative and annoying.
Lu Xiaocha tugged at its tail. “Speak properly. The money you’re using now is given by my father, my brothers, and me.”
The Nightmare Cat changed its expression on the spot.
“That’s right, dear brother. I’m a unique, multi-talented, and talkative cat. Now that the cat belongs to your family, are you happy or surprised? Does anyone in your family have nightmares? I can help turn it into a beautiful dream.”
Lu Beichen’s lips twitched. “No thank you.”
A talking cat was shocking enough no matter where it was placed, but this cat didn’t sound very serious.
“Xiaocha, what’s going on?”
Lu Xiaocha introduced him. “This is the Nightmare Cat, a Grade S heretic. It can enter dreams and weave dreams to create illusions. It was brought back by me, Fu Ye, and Yin Shian on this mission. It said that I was good-looking and insisted on following me.”
Lu Beichen: “… This is an improper heretic!”
Lu Xiaocha nodded in agreement.
The cat instantly exploded. “What do you mean by improper? Is it wrong for me to like good-looking people? Just like how you humans like good-looking people, are you willing to stay with a bunch of troll-like people every day, or do you like to stay with beautiful people?”
Lu Beichen couldn’t retort!
But…
“Don’t say that out loud. Otherwise, you’ll get beaten up easily.”
The Nightmare Cat snorted proudly. “I’m not that stupid.”
It looked at Lu Xiaocha and then at Lu Beichen. Then, it was happy and its tail curled up.
“It was indeed the right choice for me to follow you back. Your brother is so good-looking. My eyes are blessed every day when I look at good-looking people.”
Lu Xiaocha rolled her eyes and could not be bothered by it.
She wanted to continue watching her drama series, but her brother dragged her to make up for her lessons.
Lu Xiaocha: “…”
She couldn’t even slack off!
Lu Beichen said, “The earlier you finish your studies, the earlier you can rest.”
The girl puffed up her cheeks like a pufferfish. She knew that her brother was doing this for her own good, so she obediently sat down and started to study.
The Nightmare Cat glanced at the tablet that Lu Xiaocha had been looking at previously. After opening it, its furry claws moved the mouse clumsily and clicked on the television.
Then, he started watching with relish. As he watched, he did not forget to buy what he wanted.
This life was really comfortable!
