I will never give in to Miss Death

"That one?"

I followed Lu Xinjian's gaze and looked over: "Oh, that's a Sphynx cat, also known as a hairless cat. It's generally more suitable for people who like cats but are allergic to cat hair."

I walked over, picked up the cat on the ground, and put it on Lu Xinmeng's lap: "Its name is Qiaoqiao."

From this angle, you can clearly see that Lu Xinmeng's chest is still wrapped with a lot of gauze, but it looks like nothing is wrong with her.

"Qiaoqiao..."

"Cat meow."

I don’t know if it’s because the air conditioner has been a bit cold these days or because there are too many people and the cat snacks have made it a little irritated, but Qiaoqiao’s meowing sounds a bit like “smoky voice”.

"what……"

This “cat meow” made Lu Xinmeng laugh: “Not only does it look ugly, but its meow is also ugly.”

"If you want a pretty face with a nice voice, I suggest you go look at a Ragdoll cat later."

I suggested: "But Ragdoll cats are quite large, you may not be able to hold them."

The Ragdoll cat breed...how should I put it, it's really a pure little elf.

There is a reason why this kind of cat is called a "fairy cat". It looks good, with long hair, snow-white body, cute face, and pink nose and paws. Although Timon is a Maine Coon, also a large long-haired cat, the pads of Timon's paws are black. Moreover, the fur color of Maine Coons is generally gray and black, and some colors are similar to those of tabby cats, which does not meet people's definition of "fairy".

But the Ragdoll Cat is different. This guy has a big face, blue eyes like an elf, a big scarf, smooth and bright fur, and is very good at acting coquettish. When he sees people, he will lie down with his belly exposed and ask for a touch.

If I have to point out the shortcomings of the Ragdoll cat breed, I think the biggest problem is that it is "too scheming".

They have a high IQ, which makes them very good at intrigue and jealousy.

More than once, I have seen Ragdoll cats destroying the cat climbing frame and then blaming other cats on the camera. One second they were fighting with other cats for territory, and the next second I or Ouyang Xue came over. They sensed our presence and would take the initiative to give back the territory they had just taken. Other cats would be afraid and laugh at us, and then the Ragdoll cat would lie beside them with a wronged look, pretending to be pitiful, saying "I was beaten" or "I was bullied by that cat", and meowing for you to "do justice".

I have been fooled by the high-end acting skills of Ragdoll Cats many times. Every time I heard some noise in the cats' living area, I would go over and see the Ragdoll Cats rolling on the ground with a wronged look on their faces. I thought the Ragdoll Cats were bullied again, so I taught those cats a lesson. When I got back, the more I thought about it, the more I felt something was wrong. Ragdoll Cats are large cats and it is impossible for them to be bullied by Siamese American Shorthairs. Only after watching the camera did I realize... it was the Ragdoll Cats who were bullying them, and then they acted like the emperor's concubines competing for favor. Their acting is really unparalleled.

This "defect" and "small-mindedness" of Ragdoll Cats can only be solved by "raising only one cat".

"I'll take Xinmeng to have a look after dinner, hehe."

It can be seen that Lu Xinjian is in a good mood today. He looked around the busy coffee shop and said, "Your business is so good today."

"The opening ceremony is today."

I didn't comment: "The store manager has made a lot of efforts online."

Ouyang Xue...really devoted herself to the coffee shop.

Don’t underestimate some things that seem simple, like organizing activities on Tongmeng.com and issuing coupons. In reality, there are all kinds of problems when it comes to doing them, and they are very complicated.

"How about you guys talk about tutoring?"

Perhaps because the guests around him were either playing with cats or playing board games on their phones, Lu Xinjian lowered his voice and said, "Recently, the inspections have been strict, so we can't open cram schools. Sister Denghua's eyes are... ahem, you two can discuss it. Nuo'er writes novels, so he should be good at Chinese. As for English... Nuo'er, how is your English?"

"so so."

I hesitated for a moment and said, "Just barely passed level 4."

"Look, if he has passed the Level 4 exam, there will be no problem for him to teach English in primary schools. The most important thing is that this child looks similar to Denghua. They are close in age, so maybe they can have a common language and be easy to talk to..."

Lu Xinjian’s words made me frown.

What do you mean I look like Denghua? I... I'm much bigger than her, okay!

"May I?"

At Lu Xinjian's suggestion, Li Denghua's mother looked at me and said, "Child, can you help with the lessons when you have time?"

"I……"

I didn’t know what to say for a moment: “I’m not sure…”

"money is not a problem."

"Eh?"

"..."

After a brief conversation, I roughly understood the general situation of "Li Denghua", the girl who had Yin Shiren's "cornea" transplanted.

She comes from a very privileged family. Her mother is an aerospace engineer and her father is a big shot in the field of physics in the Artisan District. He rarely goes home, has published countless papers, and works every day less than fifty meters away from the only particle collider in Kamihama City.

Li Denghua grew up in such an environment.

I don’t know if she inherited her parents’ science genes or if her parents have high-end jobs and there are many books on these subjects at home, but Li Denghua completed junior and senior high school mathematics, physics and chemistry courses in the third grade of elementary school and showed an extreme obsession with mathematics and physics. While other children were playing outside, she would often be alone, reading all kinds of high-end books that her parents had left at home. Winning the awards in elementary school mathematics and physics competitions was a piece of cake for her.

In the eyes of other children, Li Denghua was a "freak" who only knew how to read weird books at home.

She had no friends since she was a child and didn't like making friends. In addition to reading her parents' books on aerospace and advanced physics at home, she also liked to tinker with various devices at home.

As a result, the little girl's Chinese and English are a mess. She can't even write a note in Chinese, and can't compose an essay based on "Li Hua writes a letter to a good friend" in English, but she can understand high-end science books.

It was in such an environment that Li Denghua became "autified" until the sixth grade. Based on her own understanding, she wrote a "paper" related to ion collision, which had incoherent sentences and even used pinyin to replace some words. This shocked the group of old experts and professors in the artisan area.

Maybe God thought she was too talented, so he took away her eyesight half a year ago.

How does the saying go... Genius on the left, madman on the right.

"Regarding the question of tutoring, I cannot give you an accurate answer for the time being, because I have never done similar work myself."

Listening to Li Denghua's mother talking about her daughter's situation, I thought for a moment and said, "Personally, I suggest that Denghua go to school first, communicate more with the children around her, and adapt to the campus environment again before considering it."

Just at this moment, a reminder came through the headset that the food for their table was ready.

"I'll go get something."

I went to the kitchen to plate the food ordered by Lu Xinjian and Li Denghua's family. Then I returned to the dining table and skillfully placed the food on the table one by one.

“Watermelon and orange juice are free.”

Finally, I placed the watermelon cut by Master Wang in front of Lu Xinmeng and handed the orange juice to Li Denghua. I bowed slightly to them again and said, "Enjoy your meal."

"Sister Nuoer, do the clothes I gave you before fit you well?"

Lu Xinmeng asked a somewhat embarrassing question to me at this time: "I have a lot of beautiful skirts at home. If they don't fit, you can change them..."

"It's perfect. It's perfect."

I quickly responded: "No need to change, I like it very much, thank you."

I haven't actually worn it yet.

That Lolita dress… seems to be called Dreamland Amusement Park? It has a small crinoline inside. I tried it on once when I got home. Without the crinoline, it looked like a nightgown and was a bit baggy.

With the crinoline, this skirt feels a bit like a little princess in a fairy tale. It would be particularly beautiful if paired with crystal round-toed shoes or high heels.

Of course, I haven’t had much time to wear that kind of clothing lately - maybe I can make a video with it?

"Really? As long as my sister likes it."

After hearing what I said, Lu Xinmeng looked very happy: "Then I'll give sister two sets of clothes when I'm officially discharged from the hospital."

ah? Again?

"As for little skirts, I have quite a few at home."

For some reason, after listening to my conversation with Lu Xinmeng, Li Denghua next to me looked a little unconvinced: "I can also give two to my sister!"

"No need, no need, haha..."

"Yes, it's settled. I'll go online and pick out clothes for my sister when I get back!"

"..."

After chatting with Li Denghua and the others for a while, I found an excuse to slip out while they were having breakfast, tidied up a few tables in the hall, and came to the cat living area.

"I am exhausted physically and mentally..."

Yin Xiamo from the living area was combing the cats with a small comb. Seeing me coming over sweating again, she looked a little amused: "What's wrong with my princess? Do you want to change shifts?"

"Change."

I took the comb from her hand and said, "Go and clear tables 12 and 18. I'm too tired to move. I'm all sweaty. What were you thinking when you designed it? Since you can edit the human body, why not remove or weaken the function of sweating when exercising?"

"Elves are a perfect race. We can hardly see any dark side from them, including every aspect of their lives."

Yin Xiamo chuckled: "Nuo'er, do you know why I chose the elf skin?"

"why?"

"Humans sweat and have body odor, usually because sweat helps some microorganisms and bacteria ferment or proliferate, but it's different for the elves. The human body in the other world is much more evolved than here, and of course it also has the effect of inhibiting bacteria. Most elves are born from trees, and their sweat can be understood as juice... Well, when Nuoer eats watermelon or mangosteen, do you think the smell of those plants is very fresh and nice?"

As she spoke, Yin Xiamo came closer and said, "This is your situation now. It doesn't matter how much you sweat. They only have a positive heat dissipation effect, which is different from that of ordinary people."

Have you even considered this level?

"Momo..."

"Hey?"

"You took so much pains to put me...into the body of a little girl. Is there some earth-shattering conspiracy?"

"Yes, that's right!"

Yin Xiamo put her hands on her hips: "I have seen our sweet life in the next ten years through prophecy. By then, Nuo'er will be completely pushed down by me and become my little wife, living a shameful life every day. In this case, why don't I design your body to be as perfect as possible? In the end, it will be mine anyway, hehehe..."

I clenched my fists: "Iron Mee——"

"You are here."

At this time, Ouyang Xue, who was wearing a maid outfit and was also sweating, appeared from nowhere. She gestured to Yin Xiamo and me outside the coffee shop.

"The TV station people will be here in ten minutes, please get ready."

"It seems that they are from the 'Kamihama Gourmet' program team. They came to interview us at short notice, and it will be broadcast live."

"..."

……

No, 123, Xia Mo and Xia Nuo, let’s do bad things together!

"Hello, everyone watching TV or watching computers, and everyone watching the Tongmeng.com live studio. This is the Shenbin TV program "Shenbin Food". I am the host, Xiaoying."

"I'm photographer Xiao Chen."

"According to the suggestions of many netizens and enthusiastic people, we came to Xingxing Garden Road in Minaminagi District, Kamihama City early in the morning and found this newly opened... er, this, Shangjing Cat Cafe... Maid Cafe, hehe, the name is very unique, Shangjing Maid Cat Cafe."

"I'd like to share some information with Tongmeng.com and the TV viewers who are not in Kamihama City. The Minami-nagi District of Kamihama City is a very famous port district in our city. The cruiser Kamihama, which once made great achievements in the world war, was moored here. It has now been built into a historical museum and is open to the public for free. All warship fans should not miss it. The Minami-nagi District itself is also a very beautiful district. The world-famous Blue Sea and Silver Beach is here, and there are many large ships and merchant ships..."

"As for this Xingxing Garden Road, it also has a certain history. The Xingxing Garden in the Minami District was very famous back then. Unfortunately, due to some...ah, force majeure factors, the garden was closed. I actually quite like that garden, haha."

"The Shangjing Maid Cat Cafe has been very popular online recently. Netizens have been writing to our program team a lot these days, asking us to go to this store to check it out. Now Xiaoying is here, isn't she?"

"Let's not talk too much, let's go straight into the store--"

"welcome!"

"Thank you! Wow, look, as soon as I walked in, there was such a cute little girl coming out to greet me. Is this the legendary maid outfit? But when we look at this little girl... she doesn't seem to be an adult at all. She's even shorter than my uncle's daughter in elementary school. But this maid outfit suits her very well. What's your name, little sister?"

"Yin Nuo'er? It's really a very rare last name! How long have you worked here? Can you introduce your cafe to us? What kind of food is there? Or... for cats, what specific cat services are there? Do we need to pay to enter the store and play with the cats?"

"Look, we're still talking to this maid, and the cats in their store have already come to greet us. They are indeed cats that have seen the world. They are completely different from the wild cats in the school when Xiaoying was in college. The wild cats in our school would not let you touch them even if you fed them..."

"Meow……"

"..."

……

At two o'clock in the afternoon, after serving the last customer in the store, I was so tired that I collapsed directly on the massage chair in the corner of the coffee shop while looking at the customers in the store who were either eating slowly while playing short videos on their mobile phones, or going to the cat living area to play with the cats.

God knows how I spent this morning.

As expected, after 11 o'clock in the morning, the number of people coming to the store increased dramatically. In addition to Tong Meng who got coupons online and the usual regular customers, there were many anchors and video hosts, as well as passers-by who came to join in the fun after watching the promotional video released by Ouyang Xue.

With so many people coming, the problem of "shortage of staff" in the store became more prominent.

Although there are four "maids" in the coffee shop at present, Yin Xiamo, Elodie, and Ouyang Xue, Yin Xiamo is in charge of the cat area, Elodie is in charge of the milk tea and coffee area on the second floor, and it is actually only Ouyang Xue and I who actually receive customers on the first floor.

The two of us were faced with a peak of about 120 customers coming and going, and the situation could only be described as "hectic".

The coffee shop is different from ordinary restaurants. The customers' desire for service here is much higher than that of roadside fast food restaurants. Like ordinary fast food restaurants, after entering the store, people just scan the food at the counter and they will know what they want. They order three or four dishes, and the chef will pack them for you. Then they can go to the counter to get a bowl and fill it with rice and soup themselves. The waiter's role is to wait for you to finish eating and then come to clean the table.

The coffee shop is quite amazing. You have to wait for service when you order. The maid will bring the food when it is ready. If you are halfway through eating and feel that it is not enough and want to add something or take a photo, you have to call the maid over. After eating, you have to ask the maid to clean up. If you sit and play with your phone for a while, a kitten will come over to act cute. You have to call the waiter if you want to buy cat supplies.
