Chapter 22 Feeding the Cub
Hearing Jing Xiaoyu's voice, the little cat beast's ears tilted slightly, and it finally turned its face slightly.

With its two front paws resting on the bookcase and its slightly oppressive cat head held high, it glared down at Jing Xiaoyu under the bookcase, as if it was sizing up its prey.

It was only at this moment that Jing Xiaoyu discovered that Xiao Mi's eyes were green, like the cold and clear green under the glaciers of the Arctic Ocean, and at this moment they slowly narrowed into vertical pupils.

But this is not the point.

Jing Xiaoyu was so worried that she tried to reach out her hand to catch it. "Xiao Mi, it's too high and too dangerous up there. You should come down first!"

The kitten still narrowed its green eyes and showed no reaction.

Jing Xiaoyu was getting a little anxious, fearing that Xiao Mi would fall down without paying attention. He tried to move the small stool over, raised his little hand and tried to stretch it upwards, but he still couldn't touch Xiao Mi at all.

The kitten was just watching the human cub below coldly at first, but soon noticed that the cub seemed so anxious that it tried to climb up by stepping on the edge of the table to "save" it.

The kitten's tail, which was hanging beside the bookcase, swept impatiently for a moment before it finally decided to move its paw.

Before Jing Xiaoyu could react, a dazzling white shadow suddenly leaped past his eyes. In the blink of an eye, the kitten had landed steadily and was standing at his feet.

Jing Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, picked up the kitten, and reminded it with lingering fear.

"Xiao Mi, don't jump so high next time."

The kitten ignored him, turned its head, curled up its furry tail and continued to sleep to recuperate.

Jing Xiaoyu thought that Xiao Mi was so sleepy because she had been wandering outside for too long. He was reluctant to wake Xiao Mi up, so he put Xiao Mi in the little nest he had made.

I squatted beside the nest and watched for a while. When Xiao Mi fell asleep, I took a clean towel and wiped off the dust on Xiao Mi's body that had not been licked off.

He wiped it very carefully the whole time, and while wiping he discovered Xiaomi's pink paw pads. He couldn't help but pinch them secretly with his little hands, and they were soft and elastic.

He wanted to pinch it again, but when he saw the tip of Xiaomi's ears tremble impatiently, Jing Xiaoyu had to put the paw pad back obediently.

The kitten took a nap in its little cardboard nest. When it woke up, it found that the scent of the human cub lingering around it had become a little weaker, which caused its tail to start wagging in frustration again.

So, in the middle of the night, the kitten stepped out of the cardboard box. In the darkness, its cold green eyes slowly scanned every corner of the hut, until it finally followed the scent and found the human cub sleeping soundly on the bed.

The kitten silently jumped onto the bedside table, stood solemnly on the cabinet, and stared quietly at the cub's chubby little face pressed on the side of the pillow.

It stayed grimly beside the cub until its tail stopped wagging, then it slowly returned to its own cardboard nest.

The next morning, the kitten was awakened by the sound of its cubs talking.

He walked all the way to the back of the cub in a bad mood.

At this time, Jing Xiaoyu was still standing on a stool, making milk powder while calling her mother to report to each other.

"Mom, the fern seeds I planted are very popular. The specialist sister who sells the crops has tripled the purchase price for me. I will soon be able to save enough star coins."

Hearing his mother praising him on the other end of the communicator, Jing Xiaoyu couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth slightly, but he still pretended to be calm when answering, "Yeah, I know..."

Jing Xiaoyu did not forget to tell her mother about the stray kitten she picked up yesterday, and said she would wait for her mother to come back and see it after she was done with her work.

After hanging up the phone, Jing Xiaoyu re-shaken the powdered milk. He had specially prepared powdered milk for the kitten today, and was about to go over with the milk bowl to wake the kitten up when he turned around and saw the kitten standing right in front of him, blocking his way.

Jing Xiaoyu rubbed his eyes.

He tilted his head and looked at the kitten, feeling a little confused.

Is it his imagination?

It's only been one night, how come Xiao Mi already looks a lot bigger than yesterday?
Jing Xiaoyu didn't even bother to drink milk herself. She led the kitten to the place where it was eating, placed the milk bowl next to its nest, and encouraged it: "Xiao Mi, you also need to drink milk to supplement your nutrition. You can grow up to be as strong and powerful as me in the future."

"..."

The kitten was still in a bad mood after waking up, and when it was taken to the milk bowl, it refused to even take a sip. It raised its front paws and scratched at the bowl once or twice, intending to push away the bowl that was blocking its way. However, the paws made the bowl tilt forward uncontrollably, and the goat milk in it poured out in an instant, spilling all over the floor.

The kitten raised its paw and then put it down again, as if it realized the subtlety of the moment, and slowly turned its head towards the cub.

Jing Xiaoyu stood where he was, looking down at the goat milk that was spilling out without blinking.

After a few seconds of silence, Jing Xiaoyu squatted down to pick up the tilted basin, then went to get a rag to clean up the mess, and then went back to the kitchen to clean the basin again.

This time I didn't make milk. I just put the same cat food in the bowl as yesterday, and put it next to the nest without caring whether the kitten would eat it or not.

Then, she picked up her bottle and sat silently at the door of the cabin, puffing out her little mouth to drink his milk.

When he was about to finish drinking milk, the kitten came to him with the small bowl that it had licked clean, put the bowl at his feet, raised its head and motioned him to check.

Jing Xiaoyu looked serious and childish and turned his head away.

The kitten waited for a while, and seeing that he still refused to pay attention to it, it gently flicked its tail, raised its claws and hooked Jing Xiaoyu's trouser leg, and the tip of its claws accidentally scratched a small hole in the trousers.

Jing Xiaoyu looked down and found a hole in his pants. His first reaction was not anger, but worry. He murmured, "It's over. The last time Mom saw my pants were torn, she pricked her finger with the needle and bled while mending them. I can't let Mom find out that my pants are torn again this time..."

Jing Xiaoyu hurried back to the house to change his pants, and then opened the nearby star area network to search for a cheap tailor shop nearby. He had to mend his pants before his mother came back, so that his mother wouldn't prick her finger again if she saw it.

After checking, Jing Xiaoyu turned his head and saw the kitten still standing by. He pressed his rosy lips, but after a moment he couldn't help but pick up the kitten and spoke to it with a little seriousness.

"Xiao Mi, do you know that my mother works very hard outside to earn money for milk powder? I believe you didn't mean to throw it away, but you must be more careful next time. It really hurts me to see it all wasted."

The kitten paused and nudged his palm with its head.

Jing Xiaoyu then softened his attitude a little. He carried the kitten to a stool and even turned on the old TV for it to watch.

"Okay, I'm going to go wash the bottles. You just stay here and watch TV for a while."

After Jing Xiaoyu turned and left, the kitten stood upright on the stool and looked at the old TV with dignity.

At this moment, a major star news was being urgently broadcast on the screen, and the title read:

[Major accident! General Lu Shang encountered an accident in the Junk galaxy, and his spirit body disappeared!]
