Moved to Golden Courtyard

"Everyone thinks it's impossible, but you believe it, right? Lixue."

Xu Qi's words left the two women stunned.

Cheng Lixue stared at Xu Qi blankly. After a long while, he drank the tea in the cup and said casually, "Believe it or not... it doesn't matter."

"I have a bold guess. Would Miss Lixue like to listen to it?"

Cheng Lixue turned her head slightly - "You can say whatever you want."

"The narrow alley we ran into before is actually the remains of Dusk Street, right? There are many wild cats gathered there."

Cheng Lixue nodded.

"Apparently, all those homeless cats use it as a gathering place. But I have a question - what do they eat?

Indeed, this place is close to where people gather, and you can look through trash cans and find some edible garbage on the street. But those stray cats are all scattered...

Such a large number of stray cats scattered around would not only attract the attention of the owners of the flower and bird market, but it would also be impossible to say that we could walk on the street without seeing a single cat.

So they have been gathering in that place and have not left."

Cheng Lixue was silent for a long time, then said, "What do you want to say?"

"That light brown chinchilla steals cat food for no other reason than to help the stray cats on the streets survive."

"Ridiculous!" Cheng Lixue said mercilessly: "It's just a cat! How could it have such intelligence! Are you insulting my IQ? Or..."

"Or do you actually already know everything about that cat?"

After Xu Qi finished speaking, Cheng Lixue's expression finally changed completely.

"You are actually a New Type, right... Miss Lixue."

"You!..." Cheng Lixue was shocked. Just as she was about to ask, she felt the presence of Xu Qi's spiritual power as majestic as the Yangtze River.

So it is... like this...

She sighed, feeling as if her underwear had been seen through.

"Indeed, Mr. Xu Qi, I am able to control my mental power just like you, and my ability is to understand the language of animals."

"Why are you calling me Mr. Xu Qi at this time?"

Cheng Lixue was stunned.

　Crowdfunding Group 4⑤61②⑦940 Xu Qi smiled and said, "We are already friends, aren't we? You call me Xu Qi and I call you Lixue, isn't that good? Why did we suddenly become distant?"

……

"Puff! ...Hahaha!" Cheng Lixue suddenly laughed heartily, and this time, he said in a really carefree manner: "It's not my fault! You're right, Xu Qi, we are friends!"

Alicia was watching from the side, her lips curved and her eyes narrowed in a smile.

"Since we are friends, can you please stop hiding things from me this time, Lixue?"

Cheng Lixue nodded slightly. She glanced out the window, her eyes filled with reminiscence.

"That was when I was in college. At that time, Dusk Street was still undergoing renovation. I happened to pass by because of something, and then... I saw a scene that I will never forget."

······

"Meow!"

"Brother, this cat is a little weird, why don't we just leave."

"Go! Are you kidding me? We are human beings, how can we be afraid of cats?!"

"But……"

"But what? There are so many wild cats here. No one would know if we could catch a few to play with. Oh? Why not just take this one? Look at its short legs. It would be fun to cut off all four of its legs. Hehe."

It was drizzling, and Cheng Lixue stopped walking with an umbrella.

Two persons and a cat were confronting each other in an alley. Behind the cat was a wild cat still lying on the ground, dying. Blood flowed into the sewer along with the rain.

“Look at me… ah!”

Using the umbrella as a sword, Cheng Lixue drove away the two cat-torturing perverts in just a few moves.

She squatted down, held the umbrella over the dead wild cat, and glanced at the light brown chinchilla next to her, which was also covered in rain like her.

“Are you protecting it?”

"Meow……"

Cheng Lixue's face was gloomy.

"Come with me, I can take care of you."

"Meow."

Cheng Lixue stared at the kitten blankly.

"That's impossible. There are too many of them. If they were discovered, they would definitely be driven to another place."

"Meow!"

"This... have you thought about it? But this is basically impossible to do."

"Meow."

Cheng Lixue frowned.

"You want me to leave?... You think too simply. Those people just now are here because of me. As long as I leave, they will definitely come again."

"Meow!" (Then I will protect them too!)

Cheng Lixue was silent...

The Chinchilla seemed to realize how difficult this was. After hesitating for a while, it looked at Cheng Lixue.

"Meow?" (Can you help me?)

……

"Okay! Let me help you."

539. Miss Paddo is a mortal hero

"That's how it happened. Later, I used the money I earned from working part-time in college and participating in competitions to open a cat cafe in this flower and bird market.

I have gotten used to this kind of life, and sometimes I really think... I might be quite stupid."

"This is not stupid! Miss Lixue!" Alicia suddenly stood up!

Her eyes were bright and she stared at Cheng Lixue in front of her, as if she had discovered some treasure.

"Because of a promise, you have been guarding them here for four years - Miss Lixue, you always say, who in today's society still believes in knights?

But... aren't you a true knight? "

"!"

Xu Qi looked at Ai Li, who was rarely excited, and smiled.

Perhaps in Alicia's eyes, Miss Lixue seemed to be shining with light.

The glory of humanity.

Ai Li suddenly turned her head and looked at Xu Qi.

"Xu Qi, let's tell Padu about this. She will definitely feel the same way! Maybe she will even..."

"If that's the case, it's even more important to grab it."

The sudden sound made the three people present look towards the door in surprise.

There, Padu had appeared without anyone noticing.

It was hard for Xu Qi to imagine that one day he would see a very complicated emotion on the face of this carefree girl.

Ellie said in a trance: "Pado?"

"Like this... all you'll get in the end is pain!"

Cheng Lixue frowned and subconsciously wanted to refute. After all, to her, the Chinchilla was like a friend she had been with for several years.

But before she could say anything more, Paddo rushed out the door!

"Pado!"

Alicia didn't hesitate at all and got up and chased after him.

Seeing this, Cheng Lixue was slightly stunned, and also chased after him!

She guessed what the cat-like girl was going to do. She was definitely going to catch the chinchilla!

But Xu Qi was still sitting in the same position.

He drank the tea in the cup, recalling Pado's expression just now.

Why... is it so sad?

······

"Brother Jie, it's not a big deal that Padu goes out to steal things every day... Doesn't she have a proper job?"

"Being a thief is her job."

"Forehead……"

"It was like this in the past on Huanghun Street. At that time, I moved goods for others, and she bought goods from outside. She didn't use the money she got, but distributed it all to others."

“Robbing the rich and giving to the poor?”

"He's just mentally ill. There are just homeless people gathered there. They have hands and feet. What can't they do?"

"I still hope that life can be a little better... Maybe for Padu, we are all from Dusk Street, and there is nothing wrong with supporting each other."

"Yes... they are all people from Twilight Street..."

Qianjie sneered when he said this.

"Later, Huanghun Street was included in the planning area, and all the homeless people were driven away. A bulldozer was brought in to tear down the makeshift sheds.

That day, Padu just stayed outside in the sun for a long time. When she came back... the familiar dusk street had become a ruin, and the familiar people had all disappeared.

I finally found a place to live on Twilight Street, but it's gone just like that."

"what……"

"To Paddo, everything she had done before seemed like a joke. Dusk Street was gone, and those homeless people were homeless again.

The days went by year after year, nothing changed, and it even got worse.

This stupid cat...what needs to be changed is not a matter of how much money you have."

······

That's why I have a deep impression of the name Dusk Street, and that's why... when Pado left earlier, her eyes were so sad.

Wasn't that Chinchilla the former Paddy?

……

"Boss! My wish is actually very simple. I just want to have enough food and warm clothes, and to be able to bask in the sun and take a nap every day!"

……

Because my wish is simple, I hope that everyone I know can at least live this kind of life.

But for the young Padu, and for most people on Dusk Street at that time, even such a simple life could not be guaranteed.

Not having enough to eat, not having warm clothes to wear, living in a dark and damp corner, it seems as if you will never see the sun in your life.

What needs to change is never a question of how much money you have.

Paddo understood this truth through the pain she felt at the time.

How could such a kind person want others to follow her old path? Even if it was just a cat.

Xu Qi sighed softly.

The vast spiritual power began to spread outward continuously with him as the center.

Fu Hua and Fu Xian'er, who were accompanying their master on a shopping trip, felt it. While feeling Xu Qi's mental power, they also felt another mental power fluctuation simulated by Xu Qi.
