Why bother with dating when you already have a cat?

"Although for a specific streamer, becoming popular only requires a trigger."

"But whether you can seize this opportunity depends on whether you have consistently done this in the long term; otherwise, the opportunity will go to someone else."

"Yes, yes, Little Fish knows." Little Fish nodded vigorously.

"Then take a look, is there anything that needs improvement?" Ai Qing asked, pointing to the draft on the screen.

"Hmm..." Xiaoyu leaned closer to take a closer look and indeed found some shortcomings. "Brother."

"Hmm? What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"Here, here, and here," the little fish pointed to three places.

Ai Qing glanced at it and realized that the little fish was pointing to the belly, chest, and eyes.

"What's wrong?"

"I see other people's costumes, and these parts are all exposed," Little Fish asked, blinking her eyes in confusion. "Why do I have so many clothes on?"

"Wouldn't showing it off be more attractive to the audience?"

"Sister Foam's chest is openwork, and it's all over her body, and she also has those stockings on her legs."

“Uh…” Ai Qing was speechless for a moment. He couldn’t very well say that even if it was Xiao Yu’s virtual avatar, he didn’t want it to be too erotic and let other men see it, could he?

“Well…we’re legitimate streamers. We don’t rely on selling our looks to attract fans. We rely on your gaming skills.” Ai Qing said sternly, “They only attract fans because their own skills aren’t good enough.”

"If Xiaoyu's skills are better than theirs, and her costume is just as attractive, wouldn't she be even more amazing?" Xiaoyu seriously discussed this question with Ai Qing.

“…Okay, I just don’t want you to dress too revealingly.” Ai Qing couldn’t convince Xiao Yu, so she simply laid her cards on the table.

"But this can't be considered Xiaoyu's own thing, can it? Brother, do you even care about this?" Xiaoyu blinked, as if she had discovered something incredible, and then covered her mouth and chuckled.

"why are you laughing?"

"Hehe, hehe." Xiaoyu couldn't help but laugh even more happily when she saw him ask her. After laughing enough, she said, "I saw in a video that if you want to know if a boy likes you, just see if he gets jealous."

"Isn't this just jealousy from your brother?"

"Right, right, right? Are you jealous?"

"Go away, go away, you don't think that much about it." Ai Qing waved her hands repeatedly, denying it three times. "I just don't want you to attract fans this way."

"But there are clearly many erotic scenes in my brother's novels."

"Shut up! We were having a nice chat, why bring up my novel!" Ai Qing was getting a little impatient now.

If it were just a matter of mentioning his pen name or book title, Ai Qing felt she had become somewhat immune to it by now.

But discussing the plot of his novel in front of him, especially if it involves driving, would be too awkward!

"Okay, okay." Xiaoyu was just saying that; in reality, as long as Ai Qing didn't want her suit to be too revealing, Xiaoyu would definitely obey.

I'm so happy!

"You pointed to the eyes earlier, was there some significance to that?" Ai Qing began to change the subject.

“Oh, this.” Little Fish nodded, then said, “I think the eyes on many of their wigs are really pretty, they come in all sorts of shapes.”

"What shape do you want?" Xiaoyu's suggestion was simple. Aiqing just needed to send her requirements to the artist; it was just a matter of changing the eyes.

"Can I draw my older brother in there?"

"No way." Ai Qing's face immediately darkened. "Be more reliable."

"Okay, okay." Little Fish puffed out her cheeks and finally said, "Then can we make them into cat paws?"

"Cat paws?" Ai Qing touched her chin upon hearing this, finding it quite interesting and fitting for the catgirl character Xiao Yu's suit. It was also more intriguing than the traditional cat with vertical pupils.

Xiaoyu's idea was good, and Aiqing immediately adopted it.

After considering her wording, Ai Qing wrote down Xiaoyu's thoughts and sent them to the artist to see if she had any questions.

However, the artist is probably still busy right now and may not have seen the message.

Ai Qing and Xiao Yu stopped sitting in front of the computer and tidied up to prepare dinner.

In order to take Xiaoyu out to play today, Aiqing wrote a little more in the past few days, so today's update was finished yesterday. There was nothing else to do, so she simply accompanied Xiaoyu into the kitchen.

The two lived a cozy life together, with the aroma of food wafting from the kitchen.

Looking at the wisps of white steam rising inside, Xiaoyu, wearing an apron, was cooking diligently. A few strands of hair fell down, which she then tucked behind her ears.

Upon seeing this scene, Ai Qing was momentarily dazed.

It was as if a scene I had long fantasized about had gradually appeared in my life.

Just three months ago, I was all alone, living alone with my kitten.

I had already mentally prepared myself to embrace and enjoy solitude.

But now, how did things suddenly turn out like this...?

A girl like this has entered my life.

Now it seems that not only can the little fish not live without him, but he himself also seems to be somewhat inseparable from the little fish.

Once the thought of Xiaoyu leaving him began to cross his mind, he imagined returning to the loneliness of being alone in the empty room three months ago, the desolate living room, and the solitude of having no one to answer his voice.

Ai Qing felt a huge shadow loom over him, as heavy as a physical object, making it hard for him to breathe.

Those days were somewhat terrifying.

And yet, he had been able to enjoy it so calmly before.

But now it seems I can no longer do it.

It really is a poison...

Ai Qing looked at the busy little fish, shook her head helplessly and chuckled.

"What's wrong with my brother? Why are you staring at me like that?" After Xiaoyu finished cooking a dish and put it on a plate, she finally had a chance to turn her head and look at Ai Qing, asking with a suspicious expression.

Then she touched her face and head and asked, "Is there something stuck to me? Or what happened?"

"No, I just came to see you." Ai Qing shook her head. "And I just thought of some things."

"Oh, I see. Hehe." Xiaoyu walked up to Aiqing, lifted the hem of her apron and twirled around. "Then brother, take a good look. Look however you want. Xiaoyu's whole body belongs to brother."

Ai Qing: "...You should only say such things at home. When you're out in public, you'd better tone it down."

"Little Fish knows~" Little Fish smiled and took two steps back, continuing to cook as she said, "I definitely won't let anyone else hear, I'll only tell my brother."

There's no need to tell me.

"Don't you like it, brother?"

Ai Qing: "..."

How can I lie like this?

What kind of videos does Xiaoyu usually watch?!

They're really going astray the more they learn!

Chapter 134 Ai Qing is a scumbag

What is liking?

What is love?

What does it mean to truly like someone?

What exactly constitutes a romantic relationship?

The little fish is very distressed now.

Although I live with Ai Qing every day, there's really nothing to worry about.

But she still felt distressed.

Because she didn't know what kind of feeling Ai Qing was referring to as the kind of liking someone experiences when they're in a normal relationship.

She watched many videos and learned a lot of useful things, but when it came to the issue of love, she found that everyone had a different answer.

This left her unsure of what to believe.

After searching online extensively, the final answer is: ask your own heart.

If you feel you like it, then you like it.

Isn't that obvious?

Xiaoyu pouted and sulked, thinking to herself that of course she liked Aiqing the most.

However, Ai Qing said that her kind of liking is probably not the same as the liking in a romantic relationship.

This left the little fish a bit confused.

They clearly like it in their hearts, say they like it, and their actions also show that they like it.

Why not call it "like"?

And Xiaoyu could also sense that Aiqing liked her, right?

She searched for a lot of information about the various signs of liking someone.

Ai Qing seems to fit the bill perfectly.

Xiaoyu also saw some online discussions, such as which is more important, pets or lovers.

Xiaoyu thought that if she were to date Ai Qing, she wouldn't have to worry about this kind of problem.

Being both Ai Qing's pet and her lover, isn't that double the love?

However, according to Ai Qing, her values ​​are still in a period of growth and development, and she should wait until she has fully developed an adult mindset before she is ready to consider these issues.

Xiaoyu found it strange and asked Aiqing what about puppy love? Did her brother oppose puppy love?

As a result, the older brother was speechless, muttering something like "ordinary children are different from cats" and "there have never been cases like yours before," to brush it off.

Xiaoyu is very busy right now, so she doesn't have much time to think about this issue.

In the morning, I need to study diligently. I'm already at the fifth grade level in Chinese, but my math is still only at the third grade level.

I find math really difficult.
