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

Chapter 34 Pure Brahma Short Story

Unlike before, this time Chen Nian gave the audience plenty of time to guess and did not rush to reveal the answer.

He waved to the man on the other side of the camera with a gentle smile.

"Good evening, Shirakawa-nii."

Hello, Xiao Chen.

A deep, magnetic voice rang out, seemingly carrying a natural echo.

As the camera stabilizes, the background comes into view, understated yet exuding luxury: dark walnut bookshelves, artworks with simple lines, and high-quality leather sofas.

The middle-aged man sitting there wore a well-tailored dark-colored loungewear set, his hair was neatly combed, and his brows exuded a calm and intangible dignity bestowed by the years.

This is undoubtedly an elite figure accustomed to giving orders.

However, this sense of authority was instantly softened by the little thing in his arms!

The man's long, slender fingers were gently stroking the snow-white mass in his arms.

It was a pure white cat, as if it had been sculpted from the first snow. It was quietly curled up in front of its owner's broad chest, like a cloud nestled against a mountain peak.

What's most eye-catching is the striking 'black crown' on its head.

A nearly perfectly shaped blue-gold patch, like a crown bestowed upon an emperor, noble and mysterious!
Echoing this is the equally deep blue-gold color at the base of the tail, like the finishing touch.

The pure, flawless white body perfectly complements the 'crown' and 'scepter,' creating an aesthetically pleasing yet minimalist design that is both striking and impactful.

The perfect cat!

"That's definitely a British Shorthair!"

"This appearance definitely qualifies it as a British Shorthair."

Seeing that the comments were already focused on the 'British Shorthair', Chen Nian finally revealed the answer.

"Yes, it is indeed a British Shorthair."

"But it's definitely not your average British Shorthair!"

"It's an extremely rare color in British Shorthair cats, a true work of art—the Pure Van British Shorthair! And even rarer within the Pure Van color is the Blue-Gold Shaded Pure Van! Rare among rare!"

"Tsk tsk!"

Chen Nian smacked her lips.

His eyes held the amazement of someone admiring a work of art.

The color of the Pure White Flower is extremely rare, requiring a body that is pure white and flawless, with only the head and tail colored, and the edges of the color patches being clear.

Individuals that meet the 'clean' standard are extremely rare in the breeding industry!

The blue-gold gradient base color gives this 'black crown' and tail a deep and dreamy blue-gold hue, and as the light and shadow flow, it looks like it is inlaid with crushed diamonds!

This quality Jingfan Blue Golden British Shorthair is absolutely a dream pet for countless cat lovers!

It can be called royalty among British Shorthairs!

Chen Nian looked at Hai Na Bai Chuan, her tone carrying a hint of curiosity and confirmation: "Brother Bai, it must have cost a fortune to own such a 'little crown,' right?"

The man's expression was calm, as if he were talking about something ordinary: "Hmm, 100,000."

"hiss--"

Upon hearing the man's words, everyone watching the live stream gasped, almost sucking the fog over Birmingham away.

"Robbery??? 100,000??? For a cat???"

"Oh my god! My entire year's salary?!"

"Boss! Show me the race-grade pedigree certificate! This price... is outrageous!"

“My family runs a cattery. Purebred British Shorthairs are expensive, but the market price is at most 10,000 to 30,000 yuan! 100,000 yuan? Are you crazy?!”

Many industry insiders were among the comments.

Upon hearing the price, I instinctively felt that this cat lover had been ripped off.

However, Chen Nian spoke with unwavering certainty, her voice carrying an unquestionable professionalism.

"One hundred thousand? Worth it!" His eyes sharpened as he carefully examined the cat through the screen.

"This British Shorthair, Brother Bai, has a blue-gold 'black crown' on its head that's as perfectly shaped as a meticulously carved gemstone, with clear edges, a deep and even color, and an extremely natural gradient transition without any impurities or color bleeding. The tail coloring is equally perfect. Add to that the rarity of blue-gold shaded markings..."

"With this quality, it would be a prized possession even in a top-tier cattery!"

"It's absolutely worth the price!"

Seeing that the comments were still full of disbelief and exaggeration, Chen Nian said seriously.

"Fellow cat lovers, when assessing a cat's price, coat color is the core factor; even a slight difference can result in a world of difference in price. My family used to run a pet store and handled many purebred cats, and I think this Jingfan Blue Golden is definitely worth 100,000 yuan!"

Chen Nian's confidence and professional background finally calmed down many of the doubting comments.

Instead, the screen was filled with exclamations and complex expressions.

"Honey, come quick, come see the cat worth 100,000 yuan!"

"Truly a walking luxury item"

"Poverty limited my imagination."

Chen Nian's gaze never left the blue-and-gold British Shorthair named 'Xiaobai'.

He wasn't joking.

A price of 100,000 might be a bit expensive, but it's definitely not that much more expensive. Considering the personal preference of the person choosing the cat, 100,000 is really worth it.

This patterned cat is absolutely priceless and unavailable right now!
Chen Nian said softly, "Congratulations, Brother Bai, on having such a cat!"

"How lucky!"

Sometimes, expensive pets are also a symbol of status and wealth.

Although Haina Shirakawa doesn't care about money, he is very happy that the cat he bought has been recognized by professionals.

His eyebrows arched slightly, then furrowed tightly.

"Price doesn't matter, I just want to know what's wrong with Xiaobai. Xiao Chen, can you take a look?"

Chen Nian had noticed Xiao Bai's unusual behavior long ago.

Even through the screen, through its gorgeous, brocade-like fur, you could tell that Xiaobai was unusually slender. It lay quietly on its owner's lap, its eyes gentle but lacking the round, full vitality that a British Shorthair should have.

The viewers in the live chat also realized something was wrong.

Why is this cat so thin?

"Did the boss buy a cat that dies within a week?! The kind that dies after only a week."

"Are you stupid? This cat is clearly an adult, and a cat worth 100,000 yuan must have been bought from a cattery, how could it be bought online! Are you stupid, do you think the owner is stupid too?"

Haina Shirakawa carefully picked up Xiaobai, his movements as gentle as if he were handling a rare treasure.

Then, gently parting the long fur on the little white dog's belly, revealing what should have been the most rounded belly of a British Shorthair, but now clearly showing its ribs!
She's so thin it's heartbreaking!
"My God! It's gotten so thin that its ribs are showing!"

"That shouldn't be the case. Aren't British Shorthairs known for being round and plump? Why is it so thin?"

"Host, take a look! What's wrong with Xiaobai?"

"Poor little guy!"

No one doubted that Haina Shirakawa was reluctant to give Xiaobai good food.

After all, the background of the video and Hai Na Bai Chuan's own demeanor already indicated that the other party was not short of money at all.

It's probably normal for people to eat cat treats as their main food.

After showing Xiaobai a bit, Haina Baichuan gently placed it on his lap and stroked its soft but slightly thin back.

Little White seemed to sense its owner's worry, weakly tilting its head back and rubbing against the large hand, letting out a faint sound.

Meow~
That faint cry gripped everyone's hearts.
