Live Cat Appraisal: Starting with a Beast That's Got a Long Prison Record

Chapter 17 Three Years of Love

Chapter 17 Seventeen Years of Love

This is a unique tabby cat with markings on its back resembling carp.

As its name suggests: small carp.

Since it is not fully recovered yet, the little carp is currently staying in a transparent isolation box.

Meow!
Noticing its owner's gaze, the little carp called out to him with a strong voice, then squatted in front of the glass, raised its furry little black paw and lifted it towards the man, who also extended his index finger and pressed it in the same spot.

Upon receiving a response, the tabby cat immediately tilted its head and lay on the ground, twisting like a pretzel, while still waving its paws to interact with the man.

"Ha ha!"

The carp smiled gently before speaking to the screen.

"The doctor said to observe for two more days, and then I can be discharged. Thank you, host."

Another gift exploded on the screen.

Chen Nian breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the little carp was alright, and then waved her hand helplessly at the gift.

"Brother Carp, you don't need to do that."

He knew very well what the little tabby cat meant to the carp, and he hoped the little carp would be safe and sound more than the gift.

This is a cause for celebration for Chen Nian, Li Yu, and other fans in the live stream who care about Li Yu.

"It should."

The carp gave a short reply.

He looked at the little carp with tenderness in his eyes.

His beloved wife died young, and the little carp was the only memento left to him by his daughter who had traveled far away. If he couldn't take good care of the little carp, he would have no face to see his daughter again.

Longing always needs a place to be placed.

The little carp symbolizes the carp's longing for its daughter.

"What an adorable little tabby cat!"

"It's much cuter than my cat, which often beats up other kittens."

"To make the raccoon dog act so cute, Koi-kun is a god, awesome."

"Little Carp is so lucky! It met Brother Carp and then the streamer. Feline panleukopenia is so hard to cure!"

Seeing the words of care and blessings from fans in the live broadcast room, Carp, who had been working hard in the business world for many years, felt a warmth in her heart.

This atmosphere is why he likes this live stream and why he follows Chen Nian.

There is no deceit or treachery here, only cat lovers who come together because they love cats. Everyone loves the cuteness of cats and understands the other meanings that cats represent beyond their status as pets, so they understand each other. It is a very pure friendship.

In today's society, this is truly precious.

"It seems you've really put effort into setting up the live stream room; it looks really good now."

After chatting about the little carp, the carp laughed as it looked at Chen Nian's increasingly elaborate live stream background.

He was the viewer who provided Chen Nian with rich background information for her live stream.

"Yeah, it took us ages."

Chen Nian held up her phone, showing off her achievements.

When the camera panned across the pair of fluffy little slippers on the display shelf behind them, they instantly caught the attention of the viewers in the live stream.

"Host, what are those white slippers?"

"It looks so cute!"

"Could they be slippers for the cat?"

The carp also noticed the slippers and asked curiously.

Chen Nian then carefully got up and took off her slippers, showing them off in front of the camera like a family heirloom.

"These are cat-shaped slippers that a fan knitted by hand using the fur that her cat shed!"

"Cute, right? Envious? Hey! You guys don't have it! Haha!"

Chen Nian's smile was extremely irritating.

The comments section erupted in a flurry of angry outbursts.

"Damn it, I really want to hit him, but he's right, I am indeed envious."

"Do you have a link? I want to buy a pair too!"

"These are all handmade from pure cat hair. They are not sold online at all, and even if they are, the quality is not good at all."

Carp didn't mind Chen Nian's attitude.

He gave a faint smile.

In a mature and weathered voice, he said, "Compared to the cuteness of these little furry shoes, I think the meaning behind them is what makes the streamer so proud of them."

"Brother Carp truly understands me!"

Chen Nian immediately gave a thumbs up.

He gently held two small, white, and incredibly soft fur shoes in his right palm. The shoes were so small that they didn't even take up a third of Chen Nian's palm.

"These little furry shoes came from a long-lived white cat that has lived for seventeen years."

"Its owner was worried that its days were numbered, so two years ago, it started knitting things from the fur that the white cat had combed, as a way to preserve its beautiful memories."

"And these little slippers are one of them." "They are not only small and exquisite, incredibly cute, but also extremely precious!"

"Because this is proof of a cat's existence, having been loved by people for seventeen years."

Chen Nian's voice slowly flowed into the hearts of every audience member.

Looking at those pure white, jade-like little fur shoes, everyone seemed to feel the warmth that had accompanied them for seventeen years.

"In tears!"

"Listening to the host's story, I feel completely healed!"

"A seventeen-year-old cat is indeed long-lived. My cat only lived for thirteen years. Sigh."

"I miss my little Mimi! Waaaaah!"

"Since my cat passed away unexpectedly, I never want to have a pet again. It's too painful."

The story of the white cat resonated with many people.

Some people reminisce, while others find healing.

Some people were sad.

Chen Nian pursed her lips as she looked at the last comment, a fleeting sadness in her eyes.

The carp on the right side of the screen makes a summary.

"So everyone should cherish everything they have, whether it's cats or people. Even if cats make mistakes, don't be too harsh on them."

"They have short lifespans, and some of them are very stupid."

"Because they are just a cat."

The carp's large hand pressed against the transparent glass, and the little carp lowered its head and pressed against it, its head fur being flattened.

Meow.

Although separated by cold glass, the love and warmth between the two were perfectly conveyed.

The chat in the live stream paused for a moment upon seeing this.

Everyone was enjoying this heartwarming scene.

Chen Nian is the same.

It wasn't until someone posted a message asking when the science popularization session would start that Chen Nian noticed the number of viewers in the live stream had unknowingly reached over 2000.

"Okay, I won't disturb your live stream anymore. I'll send you a message after Little Carp has fully recovered."

Carp voluntarily ended the live stream.

The appearance of the little fur shoes also piqued his interest.

I want to send something to Chen Nian.

There should be a place for the little carp on that empty display case.

"You think so too, little carp?"

Meow~~~
The comments section became active again.

"Looking at the little carp, I also want to raise a tabby cat. Are they really that well-behaved?"

"Well, as someone who's been there, all I can say is that it's not you who raises the tabby cat, but the tabby cat that raises you."

"Most tabby cats are not very affectionate; they are frighteningly independent. If you want a well-behaved and affectionate cat, I would not recommend getting a tabby cat. Of course, Little Carp is an exception."

clap clap!

Chen Nian clapped her hands after putting the little fur shoes back in their place.

While attracting the audience's attention, they also held up their new gadget in front of the screen.

"Ta-da!"
"Next up is the science popularization segment that everyone has been looking forward to."

"Before, people always criticized the pictures I found for being too blurry and unclear, saying it was no different from not looking at them at all! So I asked my friend to spend a lot of money to make an app for me!"

"I guarantee to elevate everyone's sensory experience by at least a hundred levels!"

Chen Nian proudly pointed with her fingers.

The comments section was filled with skepticism.

"Really? I don't believe it!"

"I'm so sad, the streamer is really working hard to become better!"

"Hurry up and show it to us!"

"Don't rush, don't rush."

Chen Nian's fingertips flew across the tablet, a mysterious smile playing on her lips.

The background noise in the live stream seemed to fall silent for a moment as all eyes focused on the screen in his hand.

"The subject of my science lesson today is the smallest domestic cat in the world!"

"They roam the streets and alleys, they hide in corners where few people go."

"These are—"
