Chapter 27: This Cat Doesn’t Just Beg for Food, I Occasionally Take Jobs Too

“Don’t be sad, Mimi. How about Sister gives you some dumplings? Let’s eat some dumplings and then don’t be so unhappy.” As for Li Li’s thoughts? The white-collar worker had no idea.

She only thought that the chubby tabby cat in front of her, looking so pitiful, might just be hungry.

So she took out three steamed dumplings for Li Li to eat.

Seeing that the other party had taken the bait, Li Li didn’t hold back and ate them up one by one. After finishing, he continued to look at her pitifully.

The white-collar worker’s heart melted, and she finally handed over all the steamed dumplings.

Li Li, who had his eyes lowered, finally opened them wide and started rubbing against her.

“Alright, alright, so Mimi was hungry? You’re happy now that you’re full.” The white-collar worker said with a smile as she stroked Li Li’s big head, “Mimi, you play here slowly. It’s getting late, I have to go to work.”

“Meow meow~ （Okay, okay, goodbye, Sister. ）” Li Li wagged his tail and watched the other party get up and leave before looking for his next target.

Soon, a young man with a backpack was targeted by Li Li, and there was no other reason why Li Li targeted him.

It was just because the other party was carrying a bag of steamed buns. He felt that the other party would easily get fat eating like this and was in dire need of help.

“Fat cat, why are you blocking me again? You can’t keep fleecing the same sheep, okay? This is the third time this month. Why don’t you go and block someone else?” The young man with the backpack stopped and said helplessly, looking at Li Li, who was rubbing against his leg, showing his belly, and then blocking his way.

Why was this big fat cat always blocking him? It was the third time this month, and every time, he had to con him out of four or five steamed buns. This wasn’t right.

“Meow meow~ （Have I blocked you three times this month? Why don’t I remember? ）” Li Li was stunned when he heard this. Had he blocked the other party so many times this month? Why didn’t he remember? Maybe he had met too many people and forgot about it.

But no matter how many times this month, he had already started working. The other party had to leave something behind, right?

Otherwise, he would have done all this work for nothing?

“It seems like you’re not going to let me go, fat cat. I’m telling you, is there any point in blocking me every time?” Seeing Li Li lying on the ground and refusing to move, the young man with the backpack was speechless. He started to reason with Li Li, “At the beginning of the month, you also lay down like this and ate a donkey meat sandwich from me.”

“When I met you last week, you also swallowed five of my steamed buns. Today, you’re here to scam me again. You can’t do this.”

“As a cat of the new era, you should understand one thing. That is, you can’t overfish, you know? Get out of the way and stop blocking me.”

“Meow meow~ （That’s the logic, those are the words. But I’m already lying down, how can you not give me anything? You can give me half a steamed bun. You’re being very disrespectful to me. ）” Li Li muttered, his tail wrapped around the other party’s hand.

“You…… Don’t do this, you wicked fat cat.” The young man with the backpack struggled.

He had clearly prepared himself, no matter what this big fat cat did, he wouldn’t soften his heart.

But after being acted upon by his coquettish posture, he admitted that his heart was not strong enough. He couldn’t resist it and could only grit his teeth and take out two steamed buns from his bag while cursing, “Wicked fat cat, you’re so cunning. I’m telling you, don’t come and scam me next time. I…… I really won’t give you anything next time.”

As he spoke, he didn’t forget to pat Li Li’s big head before quickly leaving.

“Meow meow~ （He’s all bark and no bite. ）” Li Li muttered as he watched the young man with the backpack leave, munching on the steamed buns.

He spoke so fiercely, but as long as he coaxed him a little, he happily took out the steamed buns, didn’t he?

People should learn to face themselves and not always think about what they should do and what they should not do.

“Big fat cat, where did you get food from again?” Just as Li Li was feeling smug, a familiar voice came from the shop next to him.

Li Li looked up and saw the two-yuan store owner’s wife looking at him. He quickly grabbed the steamed buns and ran over.

He knew he had to take a job today. The other party must have something for him to do. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be waiting at the door.

“You’re not afraid of strangers. You’re not worried that I’ll kidnap you.” Seeing this, the owner’s wife smiled, squatted down, and stroked Li Li, “Fat cat, I have a group of mice in my warehouse recently. Are you free to go over and help me deal with them?” Ɽ

“As long as you get rid of them, you’ll be well rewarded.”

This big fat cat hadn’t been seen for a few days, and it felt a lot stronger to the touch. It seemed like it had been eating well lately. That was just right to help her deal with the mice in the warehouse.

The mice that had moved into the warehouse this time were quite big, almost as big as a cat. She didn’t know where they had eaten so much. Ordinary cats might not be able to deal with them.

She still had to ask the big fat cat to go. This fat guy was a good hand at catching mice. Just look at his fat paws. He would definitely catch one with each paw.

“Meow meow~ （As long as there’s a reward, don’t say one group. Even if there are dozens of them, I can k*ll them all. ）” Li Li said nonchalantly.

Catching mice was a piece of cake. He was very familiar with the other party’s warehouse. As long as he took action, it wouldn’t take more than a few minutes to catch all the mice.

He didn’t even need to go to where the mice were hiding. He could figure it out. There were only a few of the most comfortable places in the entire warehouse.

“So, are you ready to go now, fat cat?” the owner’s wife asked.

“Of course.” Li Li replied and got up to walk to the back of the shop.

This shop was connected to a warehouse at the back of the residential complex, which was where the owner’s wife had asked him to work.

He had been there several times and didn’t need to be guided. He knew where to go.

“I knew you were a smart fat cat, much better than those pedigree cats. When it comes to catching mice, you still have to rely on our ancestors.” Seeing this, the owner’s wife smiled and quickly followed.

“Meow meow~ （The smell of mice is so strong. There must be a lot of food around here. The mice raised here are probably big and fat again. ）” Li Li could already smell the stench of mice before he even entered the warehouse.

Smelling this, he knew that the mice today must be quite big.

The reason why they ran to the owner’s wife’s warehouse was definitely because the weather had turned cold recently. The mice were afraid of the cold in the sewers, so they targeted the owner’s wife’s warehouse.

After all, this warehouse full of goods was comfortable and warm. They wouldn’t feel cold at all lying inside.
