Rekindling the Youthful Era

Chapter 718 Free
Before coming to the warehouse to see the cats, Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng didn't have too many ideas.

After all, it was Xu Youyu who suggested adopting a kitten.

Yan Zhusheng herself has no particular interest in cats, and although Ying Chanxi also likes kittens, she didn't have any particular preference before coming here, and felt that it didn't matter which one she chose.

But when she really held the little orange cat in front of her in the palm of her hand and saw its big, innocent eyes looking at her curiously, Ying Chanxi felt as if her heart was scratched.

It's so cute.

Yan Zhusheng next to him lowered his head curiously, holding the silver-white kitten in one hand and stroking its fur with the other hand.

Although she had no interest in kittens at first, the feeling of touching this one was quite good, and she became a little addicted to it after touching it for a long time.

As for Xu Youyu, he didn't know why, but he felt that the courageous brown tabby kitten in his hand was quite to his liking.

Seeing that both sisters seemed to be inclined towards the kitten in their hands, Xu Youyu suddenly hesitated, not knowing whether to compromise.

"It seems that your choices are a bit contradictory." Li Luo saw this scene and laughed at the side, "How about you discuss among these three and see which one is better?"

"Hmm..." When Ying Chanxi heard that he had to choose one from these three kittens, he immediately showed a somewhat conflicted expression.

In comparison, Yan Zhusheng was not particularly conflicted. She looked at the expressions of Xu Youyu and Ying Chanxi, and they both seemed to like the kittens in their hands very much.

So Yan Zhusheng rubbed the head of the silver-white kitten in his hand again, and then put it back into the cage very simply.

"You guys pick." Yan Zhusheng said, "I'm good with either."

Seeing that Yan Zhusheng had given in, Ying Chanxi became more and more conflicted. He always felt that his sister was so sensible, and it would be a bit inappropriate if he still insisted.

After all, it was Xu Youyu who said she wanted to choose a cat in the first place, and she also wanted to have a cat, so I just came here to provide some reference opinions.

Thinking of this, Ying Chanxi hesitated again and again, and finally made a decision. Without Xu Youyu saying anything, he imitated Yan Zhusheng's actions and planned to put the little orange cat in his hand back into the cage.

But the next second, Xu Youyu reached out to stop Ying Chanxi, then looked at Li Luo, grinned and poked him twice with his elbow: "Look, Xixi likes them so much, why don't we raise two?"

Li Luo looked at Ying Chanxi, then at Xu Youyu, and then looked down at the brown kitten in her arms: "Then why don't you just give up this one? The little orange kitten is pretty cute, too."

Upon hearing this, Xu Youyu pouted in dissatisfaction: "You are such a stingy person."

"I didn't say I couldn't let you raise one." Li Luo laughed when he saw her cute expression and said, "Two is fine, but..."

Li Luo said this, and then he glanced at Yan Zhusheng again, and simply opened the cage again, pulled out the silver-white kitten, and stuffed it into Yan Zhusheng's palm: "Raising two is raising one, and raising three is also raising one, anyway, there is not much difference."

"If Zhu Sheng likes this one, just pick all three."

"One for each of us, so don't look down on each other."

Hearing this, Ying Chanxi immediately showed a happy smile: "Okay, okay~ That's the best~"

But the next second, she started to worry about Li Luo again: "But aren't three too many? Should I ask Aunt Lin and the others?"

"No, it won't be a problem." Li Luo waved his hand. "The villa is so big, what's the big deal about raising a few kittens?"

"Is that settled?" Xu Youyu said impatiently, "Hey, three isn't bad either."

"Yeah." Yan Zhusheng held the silver-white kitten and nodded silently. He was already unable to let it go and kept pulling its soft fur.

At this time, the person in charge of the management team nearby saw that all three kittens were successfully delivered, and then looked at Li Luo's empty arms, so he decided to strike while the iron was hot and offer a buy three get one free deal:

"I already have three kittens, why not raise four kittens together?"

"Look, you each have one, and Li Luo can have another one."

"Then each of the four of us will have a kitten."

When Li Luo heard this, he waved his hands repeatedly, thinking it was unnecessary.

But Ying Chanxi and the others immediately turned their eyes to the last kitten in the cage.

The little black cat in the cage blinked its innocent big eyes and tilted its little head with a puzzled look.

"To be honest," Xu Youyu said seriously after getting closer. "This black cat's fur is quite pure. It seems to be completely black, right?"

"That's right." The person in charge nodded repeatedly, "It's the pure black cat. It's said to bring good luck and ward off disasters."

"Then how about..." Ying Chanxi felt that it would be pitiful to take away the three kittens and only leave a little black cat, so he turned back and looked at Li Luo eagerly.

Li Luo couldn't stand Ying Chanxi's look the most. He thought that the difference between three and four wasn't that big, so he simply waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright, then four."

"Then this female cat..." The person in charge rolled his eyes, "Look, they are all from the same family."

"Hey, hey, hey, don't push your luck." Li Luo said speechlessly, "It's hard to tame a stray cat this big. Send it for sterilization after the lactation period is over, and then release it back home. I'll pay for the sterilization fee."

Upon hearing that Li Luo was willing to pay for the sterilization operation, the person in charge immediately smiled and thanked him repeatedly.

After all, if Li Luo didn't pay the money, she would have to initiate a crowdfunding campaign in the stray cat management group of Qingxi Dormitory, or submit a funding application to Xu Youyu's external relations department.

Very troublesome.

Now that Li Luo is willing to undertake this expense, that’s great.

"Now that it's confirmed, I've made the decision. If anyone wants to adopt them in the future, they won't be chosen." The person in charge took out some red strings, tied them around the necks of the four little ones, marked them, and then put them back into the cages one by one.

Seeing that Ying Chanxi and Xu Youyu still looked a little reluctant, the person in charge reminded them: "They are still young now, so you can hold them for a while, but not for too long."

"Otherwise, if they are contaminated with too much smell of strangers, the mother cat may not recognize them."

"It will be troublesome if you don't feed the cat, so you can't take the cat away during this period."

"You have to wait for a while until you are weaned before you can get the first shot of vaccination, or it would be best if you can get all three shots before taking the baby home."

Li Luo nodded after listening and asked, "How long will it take to get all the vaccines?"

"Generally speaking, it takes about three to four months." The person in charge said, "The cat triple vaccine plus rabies vaccine starts about two months after birth, and it can be completed in about two months."

Li Luo touched his chin and thought briefly, then nodded to indicate that it was okay: "Then I'll have to trouble you to take care of it during this period. We can pay for the cat food and other expenses."

"Okay, okay." The person in charge nodded with a smile. He liked straightforward adopters like Li Luo. "During this period, you can come and see the kittens at any time. Just ask the dormitory manager for the warehouse key."

After briefly discussing some precautions, Li Luo took Xu Youyu and the other two girls out of Qingxi Dormitory and drove back to Bihai Lanting.

After returning home, Xu Youyu threw himself on the sofa, took out his mobile phone and flipped through the video of the kittens he had taken before leaving, feeling a bit like quenching his thirst by looking at a plum.

"It's really cute~Xixi~" Xu Youyu said to Ying Chanxi while looking at it, "You think it's cute too, right? It's so cute!"

"Yes." Ying Chanxi followed to the sofa, sat down and watched the video with Xu Youyu, "Xiaoju is really pretty."

"I think my Ali is also very beautiful." Xu Youyu said, "Look at the fur color, it's the same as a little leopard."

When Li Luo heard Xu Youyu say the name "Ali", he was about to go into the kitchen to get a small pudding, but he stopped right there. Then he turned his head to look at Xu Youyu and couldn't help asking, "What do you call the kitten?"

"Ali, what's wrong?" Xu Youyu asked in confusion. "It's a tabby cat. I feel like its pattern is very traditional. Calling it Ali is appropriate, right?"

"Hmm..." Li Luo nodded slowly, walked into the kitchen, took out a small pudding and stuffed it into his mouth, "Maybe it's a coincidence."

In his previous life, Xu Youyu graduated from university and chose to adopt a tabby cat and a ragdoll. The tabby cat was called this name.

Unexpectedly, in this life, even though she adopted the kitten two or three years earlier, she still gave it the same name.

I have to say, it is also a kind of fate.

I just don’t know if the Ahri in this life is the same as the one in the previous life.

Li Luo thought so and didn't worry too much about it.

Everything that happened in the previous life is in the past. Just enjoy this life and don’t think too much about it.

At this time, Xu Youyu had already asked Ying Chanxi and Yan Zhusheng next to him: "You can also give the kitten a name first, do you have any ideas?"

"Hmm..." Ying Chanxi thought carefully for a while, then said, "Since everyone calls it Little Orange, why not just call it Jubao?"

"Jubao?" Xu Youyu was puzzled.

"Yes, it means treasure." Ying Chanxi explained, "Just now I held it in the palm of my hand, and it felt like a little treasure. Calling it Jubao is quite appropriate, right?"

"It sounds a bit stupid." Yan Zhusheng commented on the side.

"What are you talking about?" Ying Chanxi glared at Yan Zhusheng angrily when he heard this, "Then Zhusheng, what name are you going to give your kitten?"

"I don't know." Yan Zhusheng shook his head, then looked at Li Luo, "I don't know how to come up with a name, Li Luo, help me choose one."

"Me?" Li Luo glanced at Yan Zhusheng and probably knew that Yan Zhusheng had difficulty in naming, and most of his accounts on the Internet were called Shengshengbusi.

So Li Luo thought for a while, his eyes fell on the photo of Ali taken by Xu Youyu's mobile phone, and then he thought to himself, "It looks cute in its silvery white form, so why not just call it Cotton Candy, and its nickname is Tangtang."

"Eh~ What a rustic name." Xu Youyu couldn't help but complain.

Li Luo: “…”

Hearing Xu Youyu's complaints, Li Luo couldn't help but curl his lips, thinking that this name was chosen by you in your previous life, and you still have the nerve to call it unsophisticated?

"It's easier to feed them if they are a little more earthy." Li Luo rolled his eyes at her.

Yan Zhusheng had no objection. He just followed Li Luo's advice and nodded in agreement, "Then let's call it Cotton Candy."

"What about your little black cat?" Xu Youyu asked with a smile, "Should I call him Black Cat Sheriff?"

"You don't understand this, do you?" Li Luo heard Xu Youyu say this and immediately corrected him seriously, "Although Sheriff Black Cat has the word Black Cat in his name, he is actually a cow cat! He has white fur!"

"..." Xu Youyu looked at him speechlessly, not knowing what to say, "Then what do you want to call him? Just call him Xiao Hei, it's easier to raise because it's a little more rustic."

"Why must a black cat be called Xiao Hei?" Li Luo shook his head repeatedly, "I think this is too stereotypical. No, no, can the name not contain the word black?"

"Then call it coal?" Ying Chanxi suggested, raising a finger.

"Aren't you still black?" Li Luo was speechless.

"Well, at least there are no black characters." Ying Chanxi said a little embarrassedly, "What else can we call it? It doesn't seem very appropriate."

"Then call it ink." Xu Youyu said casually, "Or Oreo?"

"Oreo is a sandwich cookie, right? It has white color in the middle." Li Luo criticized.

"You're asking for too much." Xu Youyu couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Then you can choose one yourself. I'll see what name you can come up with."

"I can get it myself..." Li Luo touched his chin and slurped a piece of pudding in his mouth.

After swallowing the whole pudding, Li Luo spit the stick in his mouth into the trash can, and then suddenly thought of a good name.

"I figured it out."

"What's your name?" Ying Chanxi asked curiously.

"Just call it BaiGui."

"What the hell?" Xu Youyu was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding, "What do you mean by free?"

"It means free." Li Luo said, "Free food and free drink, do you understand?"

"Is it black? Why are you wearing white?" Xu Youyu looked at him with a bit of a smile, "Is this appropriate?"

"Why is it inappropriate?" Li Luo said, "We didn't plan to adopt it in the first place. If it wasn't for the recommendation of the person in charge, and you felt sorry for it being left alone, we would have taken it in with reluctance."

"This is almost like giving it away for free."

"That's the name!"

"Yeah, that's a good name." Yan Zhusheng nodded in agreement. As long as it was given by Li Luo, it would be a good name in her eyes.

Ying Chanxi and Xu Youyu were too tired to complain, so they just let him go.

In this way, the names of the four kittens were completely decided.

The little black cat is called Bai Gei, the brown tabby cat is called Ali, the orange cat is called Ju Bao, and the silver and white striped cat is called Cotton Candy.

After confirming these, Xu Youyu couldn't wait to pull Ying Chanxi to start shopping online, planning to buy some things needed for raising a cat in advance.

Yan Zhusheng wasn't very interested in these things. She just liked the feel of petting cats. Seeing the two of them enthusiastically starting to shop, she got up and went to the piano room.

Li Luo glanced at it for a few seconds and then went back to his room to type.

And after the afternoon passed quietly.

In the evening, four people were having dinner at home. Xu Youyu was sitting at the dining table, browsing his phone while eating, when he suddenly saw a new group announcement message in the class group.

She clicked it and took a look.

The next second, screams rang out at the dining table.

"What's going on?" Li Luo asked quickly, confused.

"It's over... It's completely over now..." Xu Youyu put down his chopsticks and phone, looking hopeless, "How can I live like this?"
