My vampire princess wants to repay a debt of gratitude.

This brand of cat food costs 800 yuan a bag, it's practically for pampered cats!

We can't afford to eat snowballs!

The young shop assistant's eyes lit up, and she rushed over enthusiastically. She had distinctive features, with big eyes and slightly protruding ears: "How many bags do you want? Do you need our store to help with delivery?"

Damn! I've never had delivery service when I buy cat food myself before!

"10 bags."

Ye Zimo said calmly.

"and many more!"

Lin Mo stopped her in time, pointing to the common cat food next to him and saying, "I want this, one bag is enough!"

The shop assistant's mood was like a roller coaster. The more expensive the cat food, the more commission she would receive. For 10 bags of cat food costing 800 yuan each, she could get 2000 yuan in commission, which was equivalent to her monthly base salary!

For a bag of cat food that costs 80 yuan, she only gets a 20 yuan commission, which instantly puts her in a bad mood.

This lack of beauty is directly reflected on the face.

She rolled her eyes: "One bag, no delivery."

Lin Mo walked to the front desk, intending to pay. Having just experienced life and death, he didn't care about a cold look from others.

Moreover, he felt that the shop assistant brought him back to the real world.

Ye Zimo felt very uncomfortable with the change in the shop assistant's attitude. How could he be so rude to her favorite comic book artist! Besides, he was also the person she was supposed to repay a debt of gratitude to. How dare he roll his eyes at a future vampire junior? It was simply intolerable!

Ye Zimo grabbed Lin Mo's hand, interrupting him as he was paying.

"Why did you say you could deliver, but now you can't?"

Ye Zimo asked calmly, without revealing any emotion in her voice, but her naturally cold demeanor made the shop assistant feel pressured as if she were being questioned.

"We don't do delivery; delivery is only available for specific brands."

The shop assistant didn't stand on ceremony and pointed to the price list on the two bags of cat food.

The meaning is self-evident: the expensive items can be given away, and the cheaper ones can be kept by the customer.

"Oh, call the store manager out."

Ye Zimo took Lin Mo's hand and sat down on the soft sofa in the waiting area.

The first time Lin Mo held a girl's hand, it felt soft, cool, and small.

A strange feeling arose, but it felt very comfortable.

Ye Zimo let go of his hand, but Lin Mo still felt unsatisfied and thought they could hold hands a little longer.

"Why are you looking for our store manager?"

The shop assistant gave Ye Zimo and Lin Mo a cold look, noticing the sneakers on Ye Zimo's feet and then looking at Lin Mo's clothes, and concluded that Ye Zimo was wearing counterfeit goods.

"Not very old, but quite vain."

She complained that it seemed they didn't intend to call the store manager.

Ye Zimo remained expressionless, took out her phone, and made a call.

Less than 5 minutes later, a nearly 50-year-old shop manager, dressed in a black suit and with his hair neatly combed, hurriedly returned to the cat shelter.

If it weren't for the Cat House logo badge he wore on his chest, Lin Mo would have definitely thought he was a wealthy person's butler or an old model who posed for magazine covers for property management companies.

The old shop manager first gave the staff a sharp look, then walked straight up to Ye Zimo and respectfully bowed at a 90-degree angle:

"Young Miss, you've arrived without even saying a word."

"The new employee is very rude, I don't like him."

Ye Zimo didn't even look up, casually crossing her legs, displaying a kingly demeanor.

The store manager wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He didn't even dare to straighten his back, continuing to maintain a respectful posture as he spoke.

"I will dismiss her immediately, please don't take it to heart, Miss."

The shop assistant and Lin Mo were both dumbfounded.

what's the situation?

Was this cattery originally owned by Ye Zimo's family?

The shop assistant was completely stunned. Such a melodramatic plot had actually happened to her, and she was the negative example, the cannon fodder to highlight the protagonist!

God, this is unfair!

The female shop assistant burst into tears instantly, crying so hard her skin peeled off.

If it weren't for the fact that it was 1 a.m. and the pet store was empty, this scene would definitely have made headlines on various short video platforms.

A terrifying incident at a pet store! The employee's skin was practically peeling off!

Lin Mo was completely devastated.

After the female shop assistant's human skin peeled off, the skin underneath was emerald green. Three goblins jumped out of her body, knelt down on the ground, and begged the vampire for forgiveness.

"Waaah, we three goblin brothers were blind and didn't know you were the young lady's friends. Please forgive us, young lady."

"The work at the cattery is easy and simple, and the commission is high. We don't have a diploma, so this is the only job we can find."

"Waaaaah, please forgive us, Miss."

The three goblins cried their eyes out; it was as if they had encountered the greatest hardship of their goblin lives.

"They are goblins who escaped from a demon king's dungeon. They couldn't find work, so I took them in. I didn't expect them to cause trouble for the young lady."

The store manager immediately explained.

Lin Mo swallowed hard. He had just seen the corpse-controlling worms, and now he saw goblins.

There are three of them, goblin brothers! Why are you dressed as women? To become female shop assistants?

Chapter 29 The Characteristics of Poverty

Ye Zimo glanced at the three goblins but ignored them.

The store manager immediately handed Lin Mo a premium membership card that had been prepared beforehand.

"Sorry, student, from now on, all purchases at our store will be 6% off."

Lin Mo didn't want the membership card at first, but the store manager insisted on giving it to him. After some back and forth, the card ended up in Lin Mo's hands.

The shop manager looked at Ye Zimo expectantly, hoping that his attitude could save this cattery.

"May I?"

Ye Zimo asked Lin Mo, who was speechless at that moment.

This...this is class!

The three goblins looked at Lin Mo pitifully, hoping that he would forgive them, or at least say a few kind words to them.

Lin Mo's lips twitched as he recalled the robbers' revenge incident they had just encountered, and worried that these three goblins might also turn into the robbers.

After all, the pressure of human life is far greater than the pressure of the underground city.

In the end, Lin Mo left his home address and offered to deliver 10 bags of premium cat food to his door free of charge.

The three goblins didn't lose their jobs; they just had half a month's salary deducted.

When Lin Mo left the cattery, he was already quite satisfied with his purchases, and since someone delivered the food, he didn't have to carry the cat food up the stairs.

Without a bicycle, Lin Mo had to walk home, a 30-minute walk from the pet store to his neighborhood.

During this time, Ye Zimo traveled the same way as him, but the atmosphere was somewhat awkward and subtle.

"So goblins, demon lords, and corpse-controlling worms are all real?"

Lin Mo spoke first, breaking the silence.

"That's right, didn't you know?"

Ye Zimo raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Of course, I'm just an ordinary person."

Lin Mo broke out in a cold sweat. Did the vampire think he knew everything?

"That's right, they've now found a way to coexist peacefully with humans, disguising themselves as humans and living in this world."

Ye Zimo said calmly, "Like our Secret Society, most monsters are relatively well-behaved. They have signed confidentiality agreements and will not reveal their identities to humans. A very small number of dangerous individuals like to cause trouble. Overall, the world you live in is still safe."

"Safe? I almost got hit by a car just now."

Lin Mo felt that the word "safety" no longer existed after Ye Zimo appeared.

"Isn't everything alright?"

Ye Zimo stroked her chin. "If you're so insecure, why don't I move in with you to protect you?"

Lin Mo was taken aback: "You're moving to our neighborhood?"

"To make it easier to repay your kindness, I'll have Xiaoju rent your neighbor's house. From now on, I'll live next door to you. Don't worry, I'll keep my distance from your sister."

Ye Zimo explained that she actually made the decision to move to Lin Mo's neighborhood after learning that Lin Mo was a cartoonist! It wasn't just to protect Lin Mo; supervising Lin Mo's comic drawing was the right thing to do.

When are you moving?

Lin Mo swallowed.

"tomorrow."

As expected, vampires are really too willful!

But living next to a vampire is something I can't even imagine. What if she gets hungry one day and wants to drink fresh human blood?

It's best to keep your own sister as far away from her as possible.

"Don't worry, Xiaoju will prepare the freshest human blood for me and won't harm anyone you know."

Ye Zimo saw right through Lin Mo's thoughts and immediately dispelled his concerns.

"Are you going back to stay here today?"

Lin Mo asked tentatively.
