Why bother with dating when you already have a cat?

Xiaoyu opened her mouth, about to say something, but Ai Qing had already disappeared.

……

Standing in the elevator, Ai Qing looked at her reflection on the wall and rubbed her face vigorously.

After this cooling-off period, Ai Qing finally regained some of her senses.

But his heart was still burning with passion, carrying a hint of unreality.

This left him in a daze. When he stepped out of the elevator, he looked up at the tall building and still felt it was very magical.

The kitten he raised from a kitten unexpectedly transformed into human form and eventually became his girlfriend.

He walked out of the neighborhood, wondering where he could usually buy that thing.

It seems like my grandparents' little supermarket sells them?

But that thing was right there at the cashier, and Ai Qing was too embarrassed to go and get it.

After thinking about it, I decided to go to the nearby pharmacy.

This stuff is sold in pharmacies, right?

With that thought in mind, Ai Qing quickened her pace.

But when he got to the pharmacy, he hesitated.

It would be so awkward to go in and buy that stuff.

Ai Qing, a virgin, had never bought that kind of thing before. Now, if he were to ask the doctor to buy it, he really wouldn't know how to start the conversation.

This is really awkward.

Or forget it?

After all, it's a bit too fast to start doing something like this right away.

But when the image of Xiaoyu lying on the bed, so charming and alluring, flashed through his mind, he impulsively rushed into the pharmacy.

However, he was too embarrassed to ask directly, so he wandered around the store, hoping to find that thing on his own.

But after searching for several minutes without success, the doctor in the shop noticed that he was sweating profusely, so he came over and asked, "What medicine do you want to buy?"

"Um...contraception..."

"Birth control pills?" the doctor asked.

"No, no, it's a set..."

"Oh, this one." The doctor walked to a shelf and pulled out a few boxes from the bottom shelf. "Which one do you want? Pick one."

"This one will do." Ai Qing forced himself to point to one at random. He didn't know which brands were good anyway, as long as it worked.

Seeing his naive demeanor, the doctor smiled as he stood up, making sure Ai Qing didn't see it.

He took the package in his hand and walked to the cashier. After Ai Qing paid, he handed the package to him.

"Thank you," Ai Qing whispered her thanks, then ran out of the store as if fleeing. The wind on the street finally made her feel a little better.

go go go go go!

Ai Qing hurried home, the image of the little fish resurfacing in her mind.

But when he got home and rushed into his bedroom...

"Meow..." A little white fish lay on the bed, its eyes wide open, looking at him with a resentful expression.

Ai Qing clutched the box in her hand, her mouth slightly open, a wave of disappointment washing over her.

Depend on!

Forgot about that!

And just then...

There was a knock on the front door.

"Is Ai Qing there?!" Xiao Youqian's voice came from outside.

Chapter 159 Laying the Foundation for Identity

After taking a bath, Xiao Youqian had already gone to bed, intending to scroll through her phone for a while before going to sleep.

But while in bed, she found her chat history with Xiaoyu and couldn't resist. She changed her clothes and went out to check on Aiqing.

She's currently quite curious about what Ai Qing is like when she's in a relationship.

From childhood to adulthood, Xiao Youqian had never seen Ai Qing date.

Thinking this, she arrived at Ai Qing's door, knocked, and called out to her.

The door was opened quickly.

Ai Qing looked at Xiao Youqian outside the door with a puzzled expression and asked, "Sister Qian, what's wrong?"

"Can't I come visit your house if there's nothing wrong?"

Xiao Youqian glanced into the room twice, then said, "You're not welcoming me?"

“How could that be?” Ai Qing shook her head repeatedly, opened the door completely, and invited her into the house.

Xiao Youqian, with her sharp eyes, immediately noticed the box Ai Qing was holding and raised an eyebrow.

She was much more familiar with this thing than Ai Qing was.

"Ai Qing".

"Ok?"

"Are you two making such a quick move? That girl is still in high school," Xiao Youqian couldn't help but remind her. "You'd better watch out, or her parents might come knocking on your door and beat you up."

"Huh?" Ai Qing was a little confused and turned her head with a puzzled look. "What are you talking about?"

"Hey Xiaoyu, aren't you two dating?"

"Wait a minute." Ai Qing was startled, then turned to look at the little fish on the ground. "How did you know I'm in a relationship?"

"Have you forgotten that I have Xiaoyu as a QQ friend?" Xiao Youqian laughed smugly. "And you probably don't know, but I've shared a lot of tips on pursuing guys with Xiaoyu."

"Meow..."

Upon hearing this, even the little fish on the ground were stunned.

So, the Youqian sister from the internet is the same sister who lives across the hall?!

But soon, the little fish realized what was happening, quickly turned around, and tried to sneak away.

But it was too late now.

"Oh?" Ai Qing picked up the small fish from the ground, hugged her tightly, and then asked Xiao Youqian, "What did you talk about with her?"

"It's nothing, just some techniques," Xiao Youqian waved her hand and said, "The most important thing is that you two like each other."

"Meow~" The little fish in Ai Qing's arms meowed in agreement.

The two of them walked to the living room sofa and sat down, chatting idly in the middle of the night.

Only then did Ai Qing remember that she was still holding a box of that stuff in her hand.

Thinking of what Xiao Youqian had asked earlier, he blushed and silently put it behind the sofa.

"What are you hiding?" Xiao Youqian noticed his little actions and immediately pouted. "I thought virgins would be honest, but it turns out they're not any better. We just started dating and you've already secretly prepared these things."

Ai Qing: "...Sister Qian, let me explain."

"No need, no need." Xiao Youqian waved her hands repeatedly. "It's good that you bought it. It shows that you are still responsible and know that you can't mess around."

"I think you should be more careful, after all, the girl is still young."

“If their family is conservative, and you still do this, be careful that their father doesn’t come knocking on your door with a kitchen knife.”

“Um…” Ai Qing scratched her head. “Then there’s no need to worry too much about that. Xiao Yu, well… she’s an orphan.”

Xiao Youqian: "...Huh?!"

In order to gradually gain acceptance from those around her regarding Xiaoyu's identity, Ai Qing has begun to patch up Xiaoyu's information.

"I don't know the specifics, I only know that her parents died when she was very young," Ai Qing said somewhat ambiguously. "She was raised without anyone taking care of her and was always alone."

Xiao Youqian opened her mouth, not expecting this to be the case.

"So recently I've been thinking," Ai Qing coughed, revealing her true intention, "that I want to bring her to live with me, since my bedroom is still empty and it would be a waste to leave her there."

“That’s true…” Xiao Youqian was still processing the situation, so she just nodded and then said, “If she doesn’t want to, you can tell her that she can stay at my place.”

“Okay.” Ai Qing nodded cooperatively.

The little fish nestled in Ai Qing's arms looked up at the two of them, then climbed onto Xiao Youqian's lap, found a comfortable position to lie down, and snuggled in Xiao Youqian's arms.

Xiao Youqian chuckled and patted Xiaoyu's belly: "You raise a cat named Xiaoyu, and you also name your girlfriend Xiaoyu. You're quite destined for this name."

"Yes, yes... it is quite a coincidence." Ai Qing guiltily looked away, but fortunately Xiao Youqian didn't think much of it.

After all, no normal person would think in that direction.

“Even so, you’d better keep it under control.” Xiao Youqian glanced at the thing Ai Qing was hiding behind the sofa and reminded her, “If a young girl moves in with you and you win her over in just a few days, your intentions will be too obvious.”

"Meow..." Hearing Xiao Youqian say that, the little fish in her arms immediately became dissatisfied, stood up from Xiao Youqian, and climbed back into Ai Qing's arms.

She looked at him with an expression that said, "Brother, don't listen to her nonsense."

"I know, am I that kind of person...?" Ai Qing was speechless.

If it weren't for Xiaoyu constantly seducing him, what bad things could this virgin have done?

"That's true." Xiao Youqian patted his shoulder with a smile. "But I'm warning you, if it's the first time for both the boy and the girl, the experience probably won't be very pleasant. You'd better be mentally prepared."

"What do you mean?" Ai Qing asked, a little curious.

"Go ask your good buddy." Xiao Youqian rolled her eyes at him, got up from the sofa, patted her butt and walked towards the door. "Okay, that's enough. I'm going back to sleep."

"OK." Ai Qing didn't ask any more questions. After seeing Xiao Youqian out, she closed the door.

He then turned around, looked at Xiaoyu on the sofa, chuckled twice, and pounced on her, pinning her down on the sofa.

"Little Fish, you're really something!" Ai Qing hugged her and pinched her cheek. "You've even learned to find outside help? Hmm?"
