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

Chapter 47 The Old Father's Intuition
Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

While Chen Nian and Xia Qiyue were fast asleep, the lights on the top floor of a skyscraper on the other side of the city remained bright.

Xia Qiyue's father, Xia Qin, the head of the Xia Group, was frowning as he reviewed the final agreement of a cross-border merger and acquisition.

Ding--

The phone, which was supposed to be silent, suddenly rang, breaking Xia Qin's thoughts.

This was a special care he set up for his daughter.

He would receive a notification whenever Xia Qiyue posted a new article on her account.

But it's already late at night!
"What's with this girl, making a fuss in the middle of the night instead of sleeping!"

Xia Qin rubbed his aching temples, his tone carrying the usual headache.

Other people's daughters are like warm, comforting cotton-padded jackets, but my daughter is like a leaky sports jacket.

The rebellious phase seems to have no end!

He picked up his phone with a hint of anger.

I was about to send a voice message to educate you as usual, but my fingers suddenly stopped when my eyes fell on the title of the article.

-

Witness a Miracle! Chen Nian, the No.1 cat expert on the internet, saves a dying, anorexic cat with her family's secret "miracle food"!

The accompanying image is a screenshot from the live stream: a weak Xiaobai eating with his head down, and Chen Nian's profile as he calmly provides commentary.

Xia Qin's brows furrowed slowly.

The old father's intuition told him that the relationship between Chen Nian and his daughter was unusual!
The article is filled with such strong feelings that it could even be described as one of 'adoration'!

What a joke!
She never admired me!
The bright office lights couldn't illuminate Xia Qin's lowered eyes at that moment.

"Chen Nian? Who is that!"

The morning light is faint.

Good morning, Chen Nian!

"morning!"

Before Xia Qiyue could even come upstairs to knock on the door, Chen Nian was already waiting downstairs, looking refreshed.

The lingering excitement of the previous night remained in both of their eyes, and the corners of their mouths unconsciously turned up.

Recalling the phenomenal data from yesterday's backstage, Chen Nian felt his legs were exceptionally strong today. He smiled and suggested, "Feeling great! How about an extra lap today?"

"Stay with me to the end!"

Xia Qiyue readily agreed: "But you have to wait for me to put Xiao Lan up first."

"Okay, good morning, Xiao Lan."

Chen Nian greeted the little blue dog perched on Xia Qiyue's shoulder with a smile, and even reached out to scratch its chin as she passed by, making the little guy meow.

"I'll wait for you downstairs."

"Ah."

After watching Xia Qiyue enter the building, Chen Nian went to the pavilion to warm up.

When Xia Qiyue returned, she saw a familiar scene—Chen Nian had grown cats again!
"Coming?"

Seeing Xia Qiyue walk over, Chen Nian smiled helplessly at her.

He originally just wanted to invite the two orange tabby cats to run together, but the other two also stuck to him, and judging from the calico cat's expression, it seemed that it was also eager to run with Chen Nian.

The sparrow, however, remained aloof and solitary.

"You're just too adorable for cats!"

Xia Qiyue's tone was sour.

But after successfully petting the three flowers, he instantly beamed with joy again.

Really fragrant!

In the end, the other three little ones did not follow. They just squatted in the pavilion, like three tiny guardians, watching the two people and two cats gradually run away.

The trail was exceptionally quiet in the early morning.

Xia Qiyue said excitedly as she ran.

"Chen Nian, my advertorial from last night went viral!"

"The readership has already surpassed 50,000! Lots of your new fans are reporting in the comments! The conversion rate looks great!"

"There's a user who doesn't know what's going on."

"The article clearly states your ID, yet they keep leaving comments asking who Chen Nian is. It's really baffling!"

"That's great! It shows that Teacher Xia is quite capable!"

Chen Nian listened silently, occasionally responding.

Most of my mind was absorbed in the gradually comfortable pace.

Xia Qiyue once said that exercise is addictive.

Chen Nian didn't believe it before, but now he does. He feels that if he doesn't run for a day, his legs will start to itch!

In Xia Qiyue's words, he just needs more practice.

"Since you've put it that way, shouldn't we run a couple more laps today?"

Xia Qiyue tried to teach Chen Nian a lesson for her stubbornness.

Unexpectedly, Chen Nian laughed heartily. "Just what I wanted!"
He then exerted force with his feet, and his speed suddenly increased significantly. His steps were much more steady than in the previous days, which surprised Xia Qiyue slightly.

"Wow, he really is that talented?!"

She muttered something and hurried to catch up.

In the end, after running the extra distance that was not planned, Chen Nian only held her knees and gasped for breath for a moment before calming down. Her progress was indeed visible to the naked eye!

"Tell me the truth!" Xia Qiyue looked Chen Nian up and down suspiciously.

"Did you practice secretly before?"

Chen Nian, however, simply put on an act.

He braced himself against the cold stone pillar of the pavilion with one hand, made a gesture of holding smoke in the air with the other, slightly raised his chin and blew on non-existent bangs, his eyes gazing at the distant horizon with a weary expression:

"You wouldn't understand the world of talented players."

Chen Nian's smile is harder to suppress than an AK.

This sense of accomplishment from being able to clearly feel the progress is the most gratifying.

Thank you, wonderful Xiaomi!
'You're welcome, meow~'

As Chen Nian looked at the sky at a 45-degree angle, she failed to notice Xia Qiyue's increasingly dangerous gaze.

"I don't understand?"

Xia Qiyue's lips curled into a cold smile.

So, during the stretching session that followed, Chen Nian once again experienced firsthand what the "Xia's Muscle Relaxation and Moisturizing Method" meant, and the sour and refreshing sensation made him grimace.

Even the calico cat, who was watching curiously from the side, let out a "meow" in fright and turned around and disappeared without a trace.

That's too brutal, I can't bear to watch!
Half an hour later.

Chen Nian slumped on the sofa in the studio with a 'satisfied' look on her face, as if her soul had been hollowed out.

Xia Qiyue sat to the side, looking refreshed. She had changed her clothes and was sitting with her legs crossed, her fingertips swiping across the tablet screen.

"Come on, don't lie there like that. It was pretty hard just now."

"Get up and deal with the private messages in the backend!"

This is of utmost importance.

Chen Nian didn't even bother lying down and quickly sat up.

After fermenting overnight, the amazing properties of Xiaomi cat food have completely ignited the pet community.

The influx of requests to buy and acquire cat food overwhelmed Chen Nian's inbox.

It's been many times more popular than the previous cat tablet launch!
Pet retailers may not care about a high-tech tablet that can only display cats, but they simply cannot ignore this traditional cat food that could potentially change the market!
The layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

Xiaobai has anorexia. Has Hainabaichuan not taken it to the vet?
The answer is definitely that I've seen it.

Before seeking out Chen Nian, Xiao Bai had already undergone two courses of treatment as instructed by the veterinarian.

Both intravenous and oral administration have been tried.

However, these are all just temporary solutions.

They could only watch helplessly as Xiaobai grew weaker day by day.

In the end, Hai Na Bai Chuan approached Chen Nian, truly a desperate measure taken in a panic.

He hadn't had any hope to begin with.

The reason for initiating the live stream was simply to allow Xiaobai to appear on camera in her final moments, so that more people would remember that Xiaobai had once been in this world.

But to everyone's surprise, Chen Nian pulled out a 'family heirloom cat food'!
The effect is better than those treatments that cost tens of thousands!
This miraculous turn of events made Haina Baichuan and a group of pet merchants clearly see the commercial value of Chen Nian's cat food.

Chen Nian even received a private message from the official Fanxing account in her backstage chat!

The CEO of Fanxing watched the entire process live last night.

When he saw that Xiaobai had actually eaten Chen Nian's cat food, he immediately woke up the operations manager who had already gone to sleep and gave him a good scolding.

Then a death order was issued.

"I don't care what kind of conflict you had with Chen Nian before."

"I'm giving you three days. If you can't secure the partnership with Chen Nian's cat food, then go to the finance department, collect your salary, and leave!"

This night.

Countless pet businesses sprang into action like sharks smelling blood!

Chen Nian, who was at the center of the storm, deeply understood this point at that moment.

"I already told you, I'm not Chen Nian, you've dialed the wrong number!"

After hanging up the phone, Chen Nian and Xia Qiyue exchanged a helpless glance.

Xia Qiyue: "This is the seventeenth call already, and it's still about buying cat food?"

"Hmm." Chen Nian sighed.

Things were more serious than he had imagined.

If these people continue like this, I may soon find myself with no peace and quiet!

We need to find a way to stop them.

After a moment of contemplation, Chen Nian stood up, pulled Xia Qiyue to the desk, and handed her the phone.

"Come on, can you take a video for me?"
