Chapter 263: Hmm? This cat only needs to use a little trick, and you’ll be completely smitten.

“No worries, your dad has petted plenty of cats. I know exactly how much force to use.” Brother Qiang said with a smile after hearing this.

“Okay, then Dad, can you move aside and let me pet him?” Lele asked, looking at Li Li who was lying down.

Although her dad assured her that he had a good grasp of it, she was still a little worried and felt that it would be better if she did it herself.

“Of course, no problem.” Brother Qiang said with a smile, then got up and moved aside: “Big Face Cat is quite heavy, you’d better put him on the sofa and pat his butt, don’t try to hold him, or you definitely won’t be able to.”

“Mm-hmm.” Lele nodded in response and sat down next to the sofa, reaching out to pat Li Li’s butt: “How is it, Big Face Cat? Is this amount of force okay? Does it make you uncomfortable?”

“No, it’s just right.” Li Li said with a yawn: “Actually, your dad’s petting was quite comfortable too, he didn’t use as much force as you imagined.”

“Ah? Big Face Cat, how come you can talk now? Aren’t you afraid of scaring my mom and dad?” Lele asked in astonishment.

“Don’t worry, this cat is using an illusion to talk to you, your parents can’t hear it.” Li Li pointed to Brother Qiang, who was showing no reaction.

“What about when I talk, can they hear me?” Lele asked curiously. Big Face Cat was using an illusion to talk to her, so her parents indeed couldn’t hear it. But they should be able to hear her, right?

“Of course they can’t hear you either. This cat directly blocked your voice, how could they hear it?” Li Li said with a smile, shaking his big paws: “The reason this cat is looking for you this time is to tell you some bad news. The world is about to undergo a huge change, and you need to be prepared in advance.”

“But I’m just an ordinary person, what can I do?” Lele shrugged after hearing this.

“You don’t have to worry about that, I’ll help you.” Li Li said, taking out a mask and handing it to Lele: “This is an Evil Ghost Mask. After wearing it, you will gain a portion of an evil ghost’s power, but the price is that it will consume your stamina. Additionally, this mask can only be used once a day, and the duration depends on your physical condition.”

“Then wouldn’t I only be able to use it once? I’m not that strong.” Lele muttered, taking the green-faced, fanged mask. She was just an ordinary middle school student, how much ability could she have?

Even if she wore this Evil Ghost Mask, it wouldn’t last long.

“Don’t worry, this cat has also prepared an evolution potion for you, to give you the physique of a mini-Superman.” Li Li said with a smile, taking out a pale green evolution potion: “Remember to drink it slowly, drop by drop. If you drink too much at once, I’m worried you won’t be able to handle it.”

“Oh oh, then Big Face Cat, can you give me a little more? I also want to give some to my mom and dad.” Lele said, taking the potion. The world was about to become so dangerous, her parents also needed some means of self-protection.

“Here! Two more tubes for you. Remember to have them drink it slowly, otherwise they won’t be able to handle it if they drink too much at once.” Li Li reminded her, taking out two more tubes of potion.

“Mm, I’ll do as you say, Big Face Cat. Don’t worry.” Lele said happily, taking the potions.

“That’s good. Now help me see if the steak is thawed, this cat is a little hungry.” Li Li said, lifting his head. Lele got up and went to check.

“Ahhh~”

“It’s really hard to get a meal, I just gave away three evolution potions at once.” Li Li stretched and muttered as he watched Lele go to check on the steak, then lay back down again.

He had given away so many things on this trip, it wouldn’t be right if he didn’t lie down for a while. Just ask, who else delivers goods to your doorstep like him?

“Big Face Cat, the steak is still hard. You probably won’t be able to eat it for a while.” Lele said as she came back and sat next to Li Li.

“Alright, looks like this cat has to wait a little longer.” Li Li said, rolling over on his back.

“Yes.” Lele nodded, reaching out to stroke Li Li’s belly: “Big Face Cat, do you have anything else to do tonight? If not, just sleep here.”

“If only I had nothing else to do, this cat has other things to do.” Li Li shook his big head and said: “So I can’t stay, I have to leave after this meal.”

He still had to go back and tell his own shovel officer about the future changes in the world, how could he have time to stay here?

“Okay.” Lele replied helplessly, rubbing Li Li’s bulging belly: “Big Face Cat, where have you been recently? Why haven’t you come to see me for so long? I thought you had forgotten me.”

“This cat has been very busy recently, super busy. If I had time, I would definitely come find you. Didn’t I come find you now?” Li Li said: “And you should be busy with exams now, what would I do by coming to find you? Wouldn’t that be adding to your trouble?”

“Not at all, I don’t think you’d be a bother, Big Face Cat. I’m bored to death without you.” Lele muttered.

What was there to prepare for exams? Weren’t they just the same things over and over again? And she had pretty much understood the teacher’s lessons in class, what was there to prepare for?

“Really? Then you should still study hard.” Li Li rolled over and said: “When you graduate, you’ll naturally have time to play.”

“Big Face Cat, you’re lying to me again. After I graduate, I’ll have to find a job, where will I have time to play? Don’t think I don’t know anything, okay? I know a lot of things.” Lele said angrily, pushing Li Li’s rolling belly.

The kind of nonsense that you can play after graduation, how could Big Face Cat even say that?

She had heard from her older sisters that after graduation, there was no time to play at all. They were busy to death looking for jobs and trying to survive, okay? It wasn’t as easy as Big Face Cat made it sound, having time to play was just something to fool children with.

“That’s for ordinary people. Your family’s situation is different, your family is so rich. You definitely won’t have to worry about making a living after graduation.” Li Li said.

With her family’s background, why would she need to slave away after graduation?

“Who says so? Dad says our family is very poor, okay?” Lele said, pushing Li Li’s belly: “My classmates all live in new neighborhoods, look at our house? We live in the old district.”

“This is called being low-key, understand? Have you seen any of your classmates’ homes with so much mahogany furniture?” Li Li asked, pawing at the cushion.

Who would be so poor and have so much mahogany furniture? It seemed that she still didn’t understand her family’s financial situation.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have said such a thing.

“That’s true, but mahogany furniture is old stuff from years ago, only our family has this kind of outdated furniture.”

“My classmates’ homes all have sofas.” Lele muttered.

Their family lived in a house in the old district, and it was all filled with this kind of old furniture. Her classmates were different, they lived in the new district, their homes had color TVs and big sofas.

“Alright, looks like you’re rich but don’t know it.” Li Li sighed: “Let me tell you, the place where your family lives is much richer than other neighborhoods. Look at the location of your house? It’s in the most prosperous area of the city. If there’s demolition, you won’t be able to get by with just a few apartments.”

Was this young girl still comparing herself to other classmates? Which of her classmates was as rich as her? And hadn’t she noticed that their family basically used all branded goods?

Just the slippers her mom wore wouldn’t be less than three hundred, and her dad’s suit was over ten thousand.

And the car was also over four hundred thousand, okay? With this kind of background, you tell her your family is poor?

Wouldn’t that make his shovel officer not even count as a beggar? You know, his shovel officer didn’t have anything on him that cost more than two hundred, the most expensive thing was a pair of seventy-five shoes.

“Is that so?” Lele was stunned.

Alright, she really didn’t know that her family was quite rich, but after Big Face Cat said this, she understood.

“Yes.” Li Li nodded his big head and said: “I really envy those of you who are rich and don’t know it. Others are constantly chasing after this kind of life.”

“But Big Face Cat, aren’t you a monster? Why do you care so much about money?” Lele asked curiously. Would monsters worry about money? Couldn’t they just conjure it up?

“Who doesn’t like money? At least this cat definitely likes it. If he doesn’t like money, he can give it to this cat, and let this cat handle it.” Li Li muttered, slowly getting up from the sofa: “That’s enough talk, this cat should get ready to eat and run.”

“But the food isn’t ready yet.” Lele said.

“Yes, but it will be soon. I can already smell the sweet butter. If this cat is not mistaken, there will be steak to eat soon.” Li Li said, looking at the kitchen with his eyes shining.

Who would fry butter for no reason? It must be for frying beef.

“Big Face Cat, your nose is really sharp, I didn’t even smell it.” Lele couldn’t help but say.

As expected, this cat was very sensitive to food. He hadn’t smelled anything yet, but the cat already knew they were frying steak.

“That’s because you were too engrossed in our conversation. I won’t say more, this cat is going to eat.” Li Li said, and walked towards the dining table.

“Big Face Cat, the steak isn’t ready yet, what are you doing here?” Brother Qiang couldn’t help but ask when he saw Li Li waiting at the table early.

“Meow meow~（As the saying goes, the early cat gets the food. If this cat isn’t quick, wouldn’t I only be left with dirt to eat later?）” Li Li replied, sitting on the chair, his eyes fixed on the kitchen, licking his lips uncontrollably.

Brother Qiang looked at him with a frown and said: “You greedy fellow, you really are a glutton.”

He now knew why this fellow had come over early; he was afraid someone would steal his food. But everyone in the family was tired of steak.

Who would be full and have nothing better to do than to fight him for this?

“Dinner’s ready, Big Face Scumbag Cat.” Mother Le shouted as she walked out carrying the steak.

Li Li stood up, indicating that he was ready and could start eating at any time.

“Mom, you can just call him Big Face Cat, why do you have to add ‘scumbag’? It doesn’t sound good.” Lele said when she heard her mother’s address.

Big Face Cat wasn’t a scumbag at all, okay? He even brought them evolution potions. This was something that could save their lives in the future, her mom shouldn’t call Big Face Cat that.

“Because he is a scumbag cat. Haven’t you seen it online? This bad guy has so many shovel officers, he deceives one after another, isn’t that scummy enough?” Mother Le said angrily, patting Li Li’s big head: “Am I right? You bad scumbag cat, I’m not wrong about you, am I?”

“Meow meow~（What are you saying? I don’t understand, I can’t hear you.” Li Li pretended to be confused, indicating that this cat knew nothing and was just a passing cat looking for food.

“You bad guy, you’re quite good at pretending, aren’t you? Do you think pretending not to understand will work?” Mother Le laughed and scolded, placing the steak in front of Li Li: “You scumbag cat, be careful when you eat. This steak is very hot, if you burn your tongue, I won’t be responsible.”

“Meow meow~（Although this cat may not seem very smart, I’m not stupid enough to do that, am I?）” Li Li sighed after hearing this, then? Then, of course, he started to eat heartily. Did they think this little bit of heat could stop him from eating? How ridiculous.

“Look at this scumbag cat, not only is he a scumbag, he’s also a glutton.” Mother Le couldn’t help but say.

This cat really wasn’t afraid of getting burned. He just started gnawing on the steak that had just come out of the pan. He wasn’t afraid of burning his tongue off.

“Otherwise, how could he have grown so big?” Brother Qiang said with a smile: “Honey, let’s eat too. Seeing Big Face Cat eat so heartily, I’m getting hungry.”

“Yeah, Mom, let’s eat.” Lele agreed.

“Mm.” Mother Le nodded, and the family sat down to eat.

When Li Li saw this, he restrained his eating movements a little, so as not to pull the tablecloth off the table with his big movements.

“Big Face Scumbag Cat, where are you going after dinner?” Mother Le asked when she saw that Li Li’s steak was almost finished.

This Big Face Cat wouldn’t run off again after eating, would he? Judging by his gluttonous look, he probably couldn’t sit still.

“Meow meow~（Of course I’m going home! But if you make me another steak, big sister, this cat can go back a little later. ）” Li Li raised his head and said. Unfortunately, Mother Le didn’t understand him at all.

“He’s probably going for a walk outside. It’s good for his health to walk around after a meal. Honey.” Brother Qiang quickly chimed in.

“Yeah, Mom. Big Face Cat is so heavy, he should walk more to lose weight.” Lele added.

“You father and daughter, you really are on the same page. You even speak in the same way.” Mother Le rolled her eyes.

They really were father and daughter, even finding excuses for this big scumbag cat in the same way. No wonder they said daughters were like their fathers.

“Haha, isn’t that the truth?” Brother Qiang scratched his head and laughed.

“Yeah, Big Face Cat really is a little fat.” Lele nodded.

“Alright, since you father and daughter both said so, let him be.” Mother Le looked at Li Li and said: “Big Face Scumbag Cat, you can go wherever you want, I won’t stop you.”

“Meow meow~（Okay, big sister. ）” Li Li replied, jumped off the table, rubbed against Mother Le’s leg, and then left with small, mincing steps.

“He’s really sly, no wonder he can deceive so many people. But don’t think this kind of flattery will work on me.” Mother Le said angrily as she watched Li Li leave with his big tail held high.

He really was a habitual offender, his skills at ingratiating himself were truly masterful.

“Meow meow~（When you said that, you already couldn’t forget this cat. ）” Li Li thought smugly as he walked out the door and bounced down the stairs.

It was very simple to make someone unforgettable, he only needed to use a little trick. Otherwise, his reputation as the campus social butterfly would be for nothing.

“Sister Li, thank you for driving me back, I’ll go up now.” Li Hao said as he got out of the car and was about to get out. But when he pressed the door handle, the door didn’t open. He looked at Sister Li in the driver’s seat with confusion.

“Don’t go so fast, I didn’t just drive you back for no reason. I have something I want to discuss with you, Ah Hao.” Sister Li said to Li Hao, her hands resting on the steering wheel.

“Uh, what is it?” Li Hao couldn’t help but feel a little panicked. He subconsciously leaned towards the car door.

Rainy day, no one around, inside the car, a man and a woman alone.

What did Sister Li want to talk to him about? She couldn’t say it at the company, she couldn’t say it on the road, but she had to wait until they arrived to say it.

“Don’t be nervous, I just wanted to ask you, do you have time to teach me martial arts?” Sister Li’s lips curled into a playful smile as she saw Li Hao’s panicked look.

“Martial arts?” Li Hao was stunned, then he said: “I can, but martial arts training is very tiring. Sister Li, you’d better think it through.”

So she wanted him to teach her martial arts? That was good, he was really startled.

“Of course I’ve thought it through, otherwise I wouldn’t have asked you.” Sister Li smiled.

“Alright then, I know a little bit of leg techniques and finger techniques. Sister Li, which one do you want to learn?” Li Hao asked.

Sister Li hadn’t drunk the evolution potion or eaten monster meat, even if he taught her, she would only be able to learn a little bit of the basics. She wouldn’t be able to touch the core content at all.

And at most, she was just on a whim. Even if she started training, she might not persevere.

Li Li wouldn’t blame him for this, would he?

“Of course it’s leg techniques! I’m a girl. What would it look like if you asked me to poke people with two fingers?” Sister Li laughed and scolded. She had long legs, so she should train her legs, not her fingers, right? What would that look like?

“That’s true. Then I’ll send you a video later, Sister Li. If you want to train your legs, you need to learn how to stand in a horse stance first.” Li Hao said.

Sister Li wanted to train her legs? That was a good direction. Although the Beginner’s Guide to Leg Techniques wasn’t as powerful as the 《Amazing God Finger,》 it still had a certain amount of offensive power if you mastered it.

The most important thing was, as long as you kept practicing, you would definitely achieve something.

“Okay, then I’ll wait for our Master Ah Hao to teach me.” Sister Li said, batting her eyelashes.

“Don’t say that, I’m just practicing casually, I don’t deserve the title of master.” Li Hao said awkwardly, pulling on the car door handle: “Sister Li, can you open the door now? Li Li is waiting for me to go back and cook for him.”

“Okay, okay, am I not even as important as a cat? You really are insensitive.” Sister Li said with a hint of resentment.

Li Hao looked away with a guilty conscience. Then he saw a fluffy, round, big face staring at him through the car window.
